"Have they retreated far enough? Then I'll start on my end. Oh, and pass down the order: there might be a bright light in a moment, so remember to close your eyes."
Buggy hung up the transponder snail.
"You don't need to shout anymore. It seems Zunesha is determined to follow Momonosuke's orders."
From a moment ago, Denjiro and the others had been trying to persuade Zunesha to stop its attack, but Zunesha remained indifferent.
That fellow clearly understands human speech but refuses to stop; the only way is to stop it with force.
"Do you need our help?" Denjiro asked.
"No need, let me handle it."
Buggy looked at Zunesha's massive figure and split off a ten-centimeter-long strand of blue hair.
Then, through the power of the Chop-Chop Fruit, he split and reorganized the hair into the shape of a bullet, wrapping it in Armament Haki and dyeing it black.
Magnetic field power erupted, forming an electromagnetic acceleration channel in front of Buggy, pointed directly at Zunesha.
Then Buggy looked at the black bullet and fell into deep thought.
"What's wrong, Captain? Is there a problem?" Moriah was a bit trembling with fear, hoping things wouldn't get out of hand like last time.
"It's nothing, I'm just feeling a bit sentimental."
After launching this strike, Buggy decided to face this world as Buggy.
In the eyes of everyone in the pirate world, he was the new Four Emperors Buggy, not the visitor from another world, Rett.
It was time to settle things with the past and integrate into this world.
Buggy's Chop-Chop power began to enter the bullet—cells, nuclei, molecules, atoms, atomic nuclei... Originally, only some very heavy nuclei like uranium, thorium, and plutonium could undergo nuclear fission.
But in the pirate world, a force exists within the nuclei of human cells: Armament Haki.
The existence of this power allowed Buggy to directly perform fission using cells.
Under the influence of the Chop-Chop ability, the atomic nuclei within the cells became unstable. Armament Haki began to surge, and the color of the bullet in Buggy's hand deepened, as if it were absorbing the external light source.
In a few more moments, the fission power would completely erupt, beyond Buggy's control.
Suddenly, Hawkeye and the others' Observation Haki began to sound alarms, warning of immense danger nearby.
"Here we go again," Moriah muttered. "Are you going to pierce Zunesha with that?"
"I told you, it's different from last time." The bullet in Buggy's hand began to rotate and accelerate. "This can be considered a farewell to the past. Using the power of Buggy Boy in Wano Country is a kind of fate."
"What Boy?" King was very sensitive to this. "Joy Boy?"
"I can't bring laughter to others, but I can bring destruction," Buggy laughed. "Go, Forbidden Technique: 15,000-Ton Fission - Buggy Boy (Little Boy)!"
The black bullet, accelerated by electromagnetic force, broke the speed of sound and flew toward Zunesha.
After flying out of the two-hundred-meter control range of Buggy's Chop-Chop ability, the fission had already begun.
A massive amount of Armament Haki and energy began to appear, the two forces influencing and stimulating each other.
By the time it reached Zunesha's position, the black bullet had turned into a hundred-meter-wide black fireball.
The black fireball slammed hard into Zunesha, and the fission power began to erupt completely.
First, a brilliant white flash appeared, followed by a deafening explosion.
Countless pillars of fire appeared, spinning. In an instant, a dark gray smoke cloud several kilometers high formed over Zunesha. A white column of smoke rose from the center of the cloud, with the cloud swirling around it, forming a mushroom shape.
The massive impact directly knocked Zunesha down. Its enormous body fell into the ocean. The high temperature from its body boiled the sea instantly, creating vast amounts of steam that sealed off the surrounding waters.
Then, the impact triggered a massive tsunami, with towering waves carrying steam surging in all directions.
"Watch out for the wave impact!" Mr. 3 shouted on the bikudopu. "Retreat in the direction of the waves!"
"Wow, what technique is this? It knocked Zunesha down in one hit." Ulti's eyes were full of stars. "Is this Captain Buggy's power?"
"What a terrifying man!" Black Maria licked her lips. "After taking that hit, Zunesha will be heavily injured, even if it doesn't die."
"Don't just stand there! Brace yourselves and block the waves! Don't let them capsize the ship!" Mr. 3 noticed that most people were in a daze.
Everyone snapped out of it and hurriedly used their respective abilities to block the incoming waves.
The Buggy Pirates' ship rocked violently. Fortunately, no one on board was an ordinary person, so no tragedy of falling into the sea occurred.
Nekomamushi and Inuarashi looked at each other, their faces full of relief.
"With that strike, Zou would be gone. Buggy... since when did Captain Buggy become so powerful?"
Nekomamushi paused for a moment and used an honorific.
"It's a good thing we surrenderede the Mink Tribe would have been basically wiped out." Inuarashi broke into a cold sweat thinking about it. The survival of the Mink Tribe had once depended on their single decision.
Amidst the giant waves, the Kid Pirates' ship was also fleeing rapidly.
"Hurry, let's get out of this hellhole." The kid no longer wanted to stay near Wano Country.
The anomaly just now was definitely related to the Buggy Pirates, and Kid didn't want to deal with them anymore.
He was starting to miss Big Mom now; what kind of monsters were these new Four Emperors?
He had to find someone to ally with; otherwise, how could he stand against these monsters?
But how many people could he actually trust?
The Kid Pirates' luck was quite good, but Smoothie and her group weren't so lucky.
They were too close to Zunesha, and their ship was directly overturned, falling into the scalding seawater.
How many times had this been? Why had everything been so unlucky since they arrived at Wano Country?
Smoothie sank into the seawater, her body weak, waiting for rescue from the non-ability users of the Big Mom Pirates.
Crocodile and the others, who observed Buggy's strike from a close distance, were even more shocked.
"This strike could probably destroy a nation. Even the ancient weapon pluton wouldn't have this kind of power, would it?"
If he hadn't seen it with his own eyes, Crocodile would never have believed it.
"If you had unleashed one of those during the Marineford War, Marine Headquarters would have disappeared."
"It's only at the level of destroying a city, not the power to destroy a nation," Buggy said.
Buggy Boy is just a small-scale fission. To destroy a nation, one would need the Tsar Bomba.
But that would require the power of fusion. Otherwise, Buggy would have to fission half of his body's cells to reach the power of the Tsar Bomba.
Even if he produced the power of the Tsar Bomba, its blast radius is too large; nowhere within 10 kilometers is safe, and Buggy himself wouldn't be able to escape.
Unless there's a Devil Fruit User skilled in spatial movement to pick him up.
"Is the 'nation' you're referring to a large country like the Alabasta Kingdom?" Crocodile curled his lip. "It's enough to deal with those island nations."
"This move has a cost, doesn't it? Is it those hairs?" Hawkeye keenly noticed that some of Buggy's hair had disappeared.
"Exactly. That's why it's called a forbidden technique," Buggy said.
Fortunately, Buggy's hair is very long, so he can use it a few more times.
A forbidden technique that consumes hair? Hawkeye was somewhat speechless.
"Is Zunesha dead?" Denjiro was more concerned about this question.
"We'll know once the steam clears."
