Why does buggy hate shanks

The point may have been driven home by the previous items on this list, but what makes it remarkable is how it keeps happening. Previous foes of the Strawhats, like the pirate Alvida and the ex-Crocodile flunkie Mr. If Buggy can reluctantly work alongside previous rivals like Shanks and his protege, what potential heights can he reach?

These powerful freebooters turned privateers counted such heavy hitters as Hawk-Eyes Mihawk and the villainous Crocodile among their ranks. In the wake of the Marineford war, however, the ranks of the Shichibukai had thinned considerably. After either meeting defeat at the hands of Luffy Crocodile, Gekko Moria, Donquixote Doflamingo , joining his cause Jinbei, Trafalgar Law , or going rogue; a recruitment drive was needed.

The One Piece manga has a long-running column where series creator Eiichiro Oda answers fan questions. The answer? Buggy purposely ties his hair into twin ponytails, then feeds them through holes in the hat. Furthermore, since comments about his nose drive him to kill, who knows what mocking his hair will provoke! The most immediately noticeable thing about Buggy is the anchor of his signature look: The nose.

At any rate, while on the ship, Buggy finds a treasure map with a huge treasure horde. This reveals two things. Firstly, that Buggy is okay with shorting his nakama. Secondly, Buggy assumes how his crewmates will react. Buggy is convinced this treasure will bring the end to his problems. In other words, Buggy is never going to be satisfied. Aw yeah, real pirates know how to party. When you have a victory, you party. Here you can see Buggy is not partying with them.

Likely because he wants to keep his map a secret. Also note, Shanks is a-okay with Buggy knowing about this treasure they found. Plus the fact that, despite their rivalry, Shanks wants to drink with Buggy and spend time with him. North and South pole bedamned come party! And they do. And I just love the character portrayed here in just their body language. Shanks all loose and relaxed, tipping the chair back and just enjoying himself. Read: as free.

But also note, if I have to. Young Shanks. Shanks does not appreciate Buggy mocking his dream like that. Buggy sees himself as better than Shanks, obviously.

Maybe because he views himself as smarter or more clever or just because he knows what a true pirate is like. But Buggy also wants a crew that is just like him and accepts his way of thinking and ideology. Like Shanks and like Luffy. And here is the proof that rather than being rivals, they have rival ideology.

The moon. Of course Shanks knows it and accepts it. How did he learn this? So what happened? Some old crew mate under Roger? Who knows. First note this: Whether Roger is the one who told everyone or not, the fact is that the consequences of eating a DF are something probably anyone knows.

But also that he is willing to share this treasure rather than hoard it—to whomever wants to accept the consequences of eating it. What does that say? Perhaps because Roger is leaving the avenue open for anyone interested and interesting enough to eat something like that.

First of all, Buggy really knows his treasure. He even knows the ranking system for it. I wonder what that is or if he made it up himself. So he pretends to eat it as we figure out a few panels down.

After all, aside from not being able to get underwater treasure, being a hammer in the water is no small thing on the sea. But also, he pretends to eat it.

He tricks them. And he went to a lot of damn effort to do it, too. Wyper decides to help after learning that Noland's descendant has been searching for Shandora. Nami gives Luffy a lift and heads to the Golden Bell.

Luffy jumps into the thundercloud sphere to destroy it from within. Eneru tries to stop Luffy as he hurls himself toward the Golden Bell. The ringing of the Golden Bell can be heard throughout Skypiea and even reaches Cricket's ears. The fighting has ended. A great celebration begins. The Straw Hats start preparing to leave Skypiea after obtaining various goods and treasures.

Robin discovers a message left behind by Gol D. The Going Merry gets enveloped by a giant octopus as it falls down back to the Blue Sea. The sound of the Golden Bell bids the Straw Hats farewell. After falling off of Skypiea island, Luffy and his crew are forced to abandon their ship when they land inside a heavily fortified naval fortress. The Going Merry lands inside a naval fortress. When no one is discovered aboard the ship, the Marines begin to fear it may be a ghost ship.

Luffy and Sanji get mistaken as the cooks scheduled to arrive at the base the same day. The head chef challenges Sanji to a cook-off. Nami escapes into a closet and changes into a nurse's uniform. Chopper gets wheeled off to the medical room inside a wooden crate. Luffy and Sanji decide to run away after being recognized. Usopp dresses up as a Marine and heads to the dock where the Going Merry is being kept. Luffy and Sanji encounter Marines and a heavily fortified prison when they get to a suspicious looking island in search of Zoro and Usopp.

Luffy and the others head for the dock where the Going Merry is, but they must cross a bridge full of Marines in order to get there. Another bunch of Marines await at the dock. Luffy and the others take out many of them, but the vast number of foes is daunting.

The Straw Hats make a U-turn and hide in an abandoned dock. They need the gold that the Marines stole from them to repair the Going Merry. Luffy, Zoro, Usopp and Robin stand before a giant vault. While Luffy and the others deal with the Marines, Usopp figures out how to open the vault. Luffy and Nami crash right into the enemy's lair. When Luffy gets captured, Nami is left to deal with the Marines and get the gold back by herself. The Going Merry runs aground due to low tide.

The Straw Hats are told to surrender peacefully, but they refuse to go down without a fight. Eager to add more pirates to his ship, Captain Foxy challenges Luffy to a contest in which the losing crew must swear loyalty to the winning captain. Sea monkeys cause trouble after the Going Merry returns to the sea after repairs.

The Straw Hats escape to an island where everything is long. Foxy takes down Tonjit's beloved horse Sherry in front of everyone. Enraged, Luffy accepts his challenge to face him in the Davy Back Fight. The first round involves a race around the island. The Straw Hats split into three teams, but Luffy and Zoro's teams quickly succumb to trickery.

Nami's team effortlessly glides through the coral maze and pulls out ahead. As they approach the finish line, Foxy's hand begins to glow. Zoro and Sanji enter the Groggy Ring challenge to get Chopper back, but they start arguing instead of working together against their three opponents. The opponents openly brandish weapons, but the referee pretends not to notice. Zoro and Sanji finally start working as a team against the cheaters. The competitors enter a roller skating race in the third round.

Luffy gets to go twice, but he can't even stand without falling in his skates. The third round continues. Sanji comes up with a clever idea in order for his team to stand a chance against their lightning-quick feline foe. The Straw Hats wage an all-out offensive. The Straw Hats enter the second round in order to get Robin back. As soon as the game starts, the competing participants all rush toward Tonjit. Luffy and the others will get their friends back if they win the last round, but losing could decide the fate of their future descendants.

Luffy struggles to turn the fight in his favor while having to worry about Foxy's beam attacks. Foxy uses a strange punching machine against Luffy. No matter how many times he gets knocked down, Luffy will get back up to fight for his friends. The two captains clash in the battle's final moments. Everyone seems to have lost their memory aside from Robin, who was up reading all night. All of their memories from their time together have vanished.

Luffy and the others recall seeing a boy and hearing the sound of a flute before losing their memories. Nami and Zoro remember their childhood. Luffy and the others look for Nami and Zoro, but the people on the island are confused and unable to help. The boy with the flute appears before Zoro. Luffy stays behind by himself to handle Zoro, who glowers at him with animal-like eyes.

Sanji directs his anger into kicking the boy with the flute. Zoro captures the culprit responsible for taking control of his mind, but Luffy and the others get their memories stolen once again.

The Straw Hats rescue Foxy and his crew during a big storm. Foxy tries to get back on his ship, but finds that it has been taken by someone else. Foxy tricks the Straw Hats as payback for humiliating him. Nami gives Luffy a hand against Foxy's fiery punching machine by creating rain. Luffy warms up to Aokiji after working together to help shipwreck survivors off the island.

Usopp and Chopper carry the frozen Robin to the Going Merry for treatment. While they desperately try to save her, Luffy challenges Aokiji to a fight. With the Going Merry in need of repairs, the Straw Hats head out to recruit an onboard shipwright to their crew. A train barrels straight toward the Going Merry. According to Kokoro and Chimney of Shift Station, the "sea train" travels from island to island. After arriving in Water Seven, Luffy and the others take in the various things the city has to offer as they ride yagaras into the center of town.

Luffy and the others exchange their gold to get cash to repair the Going Merry. While trying to enter the shipyard, they meet a foreman named Kaku. Foreman Paulie uses his ropes to defeat the Franky Family members, but he tries to keep going and make off with the stolen money himself.

Luffy gets upset after hearing from Kaku that the condition of the Going Merry is beyond repair. Usopp and million berries have gone missing. Usopp runs into trouble after trying to get back the stolen money by himself. Luffy and the others burn with anger after seeing their defeated friend. Usopp adamantly opposes Luffy's decision to replace the Going Merry with another ship, but Luffy has made up his mind as the ship's captain.

Usopp means serious business as he comes at Luffy with all that he's got. Amidst the explosive fight, tears stream down the Going Merry's face. The city is thrown into confusion after Mayor Iceberg is shot. Franky can breathe fire as if he were a Devil Fruit user, but he is fine being submerged in water since he is actually a fist-launching cyborg.

The townsfolk turn on the Straw Hats after learning about their connection to Robin. Luffy goes to the Galley-La HQ to find out what really happened. The Straw Hats have become wanted criminals within the city.

Chopper picks up on a familiar scent while looking for Robin with Sanji. Zoro surmises that Robin means to strike again tonight. The Straw Hats must capture Robin in order to find out whether she is their friend or foe. Masked figures appear as an explosion goes off at Iceberg's mansion; they are members of the World Government's secret organization Cipher Pol 9. CP9 is after the blueprints to the ancient weapon Pluton. For generations, shipwrights had been passing down the knowledge in order to be prepared.

CP9 had already infiltrated Galley-La Company five years ago. According to Lucci, a particular individual from Iceberg's past is still alive.

The CP9 assassins are capable of turning themselves into living weapons. Unbelievably fast, they can even fly and slice down walls with a single kick. Luffy and Zoro are sent flying by Lucci, who turns out to be a Devil Fruit user.

CP9 goes after Franky to get the ancient weapon's blueprints. Even as he tearfully resists Franky's offer to dismantle the Going Merry, Usopp knows deep down that there is no hope left for his beloved ship.

The CP9 members show up at Franky's underground hideout. Farther in, they find the room where Franky spent countless hours with Iceberg and Tom. Eight years ago, Franky's battleships attacked a judicial ship. Cannonballs rain down on Tom and Iceberg when they try to stop the onslaught. Tom and his apprentices are arrested.

To save Franky and Iceberg, Tom chooses to accept the capital punishment for building the Pirate King's ship. Iceberg tells Nami what he knows about Robin after regaining consciousness: Robin wants to make sure the Straw Hats get off the island without her. The high tide will make it impossible to leave the island once the train headed to Enies Lobby takes off.

Nami and the others rush to the station. Nami receives a love letter addressed to her at the station. In it, Sanji informs her that he has decided to board the last sea train. The giant wave approaches while Luffy is stuck in between two buildings and Zoro is sticking out the top of a chimney. Nami reveals Robin's sacrifice. Knowing that going to Enies Lobby would be like declaring war on the World Government, Luffy and the others prepare to ride a prototype sea train.

The Franky Family hitches a ride on the Rocketman as the sea train goes full throttle, joined on board by Paulie and the other Galley-La foremen.

Luffy and Zoro's powerful combined attack blows away nature's fury. Sanji and Franky team up with Sogeking, a mysterious man from the island of snipers. Together, they trap the Marines in the back of the train.

Wanze, the culinary fighter of CP7, absorbs Sanji's kick with his combat clothes made of noodles. Franky fights Nero, a new member of CP9. Like peeling an onion with his superior knife skills, Sanji strips Wanze of his noodle wear.

Franky demonstrates his ability to turn into a centaur. T-Bone of the Marines and Zoro exchange blows in a clash between master swordsmen. Sanji teaches Wanze a lesson for insulting Robin. Robin enters the car where Sanji and the others are, but she refuses to rejoin her friends. Sogeking activates a smoke bomb and runs off with Robin. Using his Devil Fruit abilities, Blueno strikes Sanji by catching him off guard. Sogeking's efforts amount to nothing as Robin leaves, yet again. With their friends captured by the World Government, the Straw Hats prepare for an all-out assault against the military on the island of Enies Lobby.

Luffy speeds past the gates and heads to the main island. Galley-La and the Franky Family start making way for Rocketman to charge through. The king bulls join the Franky Family's fight against the giants guarding the gate. The members of CP9 gather together at the Tower of Law.

The gate finally opens after Paulie uses his ropes to defeat Oimo. With help from Yokozuna, the Rocketman takes off into the sky. Nami uses her Perfect Clima Tact to strike down all of the enemies around her with lightning. The five Straw Hats run to catch up with their captain. Robin had cooperated with CP9 in order to guarantee safety for her friends. But the treacherous Spandam means to send them to a prison stronghold.

Sogeking listens and connects the dots as the sobbing Oimo tells him his story: Oimo and Kashii had served under none other than Dorry and Broggy. Zoro and the others head out to Luffy's location after joining the Franky Family on Gomorrah, but Gomorrah is also struck down by unknown assailants.

With reports of over 2, casualties, Enies Lobby experiences the worst crisis in its entire history at the hands of the Straw Hat Pirates. Steam rises from Luffy's body as he activates his new fighting technique Second Gear. With explosive power, Luffy smashes through Blueno's defenses.

Franky takes Robin to a balcony overlooking the rooftop where Luffy is. One after another, the other Straw Hat Pirates arrive. Spandam threatens to initiate a Buster Call, the very thing that tragically wiped Robin's hometown off the map 20 years ago. Robin's mother Olvia escapes prison to warn about the navy's plan to get rid of the island scholars. Unknowingly, Robin passes by her mother in town. Tears stream down Robin's face as she begs to be with Olvia after realizing that the woman being taken away by CP9 is her mother.

Being the sole survivor of the destruction of Ohara, eight-year-old Robin became a wanted fugitive. Back in the present, Luffy calls out to Robin. The Straw Hats start their rescue operation, but the drawbridge that leads to Robin gets stuck. Luffy remembers the day he decided to go out to sea.

Zoro also reflects back on his past during the rescue mission. Even as he was being held captive, he could not forget a certain promise he made. The loneliness that Robin had hidden in the deepest recesses of her heart stirs up Nami's memories of once betraying Luffy and the others.

As Sanji and Chopper remember the people who helped them in the past, they think to themselves that they will never let Robin be lonely again. The Straw Hats had originally gone to Water Seven with the intention of recruiting a shipwright, but what awaited them was something else entirely. Franky reveals the ancient weapon blueprints to Spandam and burns them before his eyes. The stuck drawbridge is used as a launching pad for Rocketman.

It is the grand old days. A certain hooved doctor has been too busy to visit Sanji and Nami's eatery lately, but Luffy has been a regular fixture.

Sanji and the others are running around town with a cart at the start of the new year, when a shady-looking bunch suddenly stops them in their tracks. Kalifa blocks Nami's attack with a bubble barrier. Controlling her soapy bubbles, the Devil Fruit user washes the strength off her enemies. In a panicked state after hearing Luffy's voice approaching, Spandam accidentally activates the golden switch and sets a Buster Call in motion. Chopper in his monstrously huge form inadvertently gives Nami a hint.

Realizing what her enemy's weakness is, Nami sets her plan in motion. Nami and Franky rush to the upper level to stop the rampaging Chopper. The only way to turn him back to normal might be to dunk him into the ocean.

Sogeking gets injured after allowing himself to believe that the deceitful Jabra would give up his key without a fight. Nami runs to his side.

Jabra uses his hardening technique against Sanji. Sanji's leg burns with fiery rage as he prepares to strike at Jabra for making Robin suffer. Spandam stands before the Gates of Justice with Robin. Luffy asks Franky to go rescue Robin while he takes care of Lucci. Kaku makes full use of his powerful limbs and neck against Zoro, but in that moment, Zoro suddenly takes on the appearance of a vengeful demon god.

Robin desperately tries to buy time for her friends, but Spandam drags her to the Gates of Justice. Just then, someone shoots Spandam from afar. Navy cannon fire interrupts the momentary relief of Robin's freedom. Sogeking dives from the Tower of Law to avoid taking a direct hit. It is now spring; the cherry blossoms are in full bloom. Boss Luffy tries to think of a way to allow a sick boy to see the flowers like everyone else. Enies Lobby gets bombarded by cannon fire. Luffy has trouble keeping up with Lucci's overwhelming strength as he continues to fight against him.

Fifteen years ago, the year-old Lucci was sent into a kingdom overtaken by pirates. There, he killed their captain along with all the hostages. Thinking back on the day Tom was taken from him, Franky crushes Spandam with an elephant. Zoro and the others fight to stay alive underwater. The Straw Hat crew must devise an escape plan from Enies Lobby when the Marines continue to rain heavy artillery fire down on the once-proud island.

Nami and the others reunite with Robin after being rescued by Kokoro. They must now wait for Luffy, but most of Enies Lobby appears to be burning. Sogeking and the others get the chance to tell Luffy that they are all safely back together, but elite Marines move in to recapture Robin.

Usopp takes off his Sogeking mask to let Luffy hear his true voice. Emboldened by his words, Luffy focuses on winning to get back to his friends.

After sinking the Straw Hats' only means of escape, the Marines turn their cannons to the now thoroughly exhausted and immobile Luffy. The Gates of Justice create whirlpools as they begin to close. The Straw Hats turn this to their advantage and speed away from the Marine fleet. Luffy and the others rejoice as the shipwrights of Galley-La greet them with their ship, but the Straw Hats must bid farewell to their dearest friend.

Vice Admiral Garp barges in to see Luffy, who has been asleep for days.

Having set his heart on recruiting Franky as his new shipwright, Luffy heads off with the others to pick up both Franky and the Straw Hats' new ship. Luffy offers to return Franky's briefs in exchange for joining his crew, but Franky remains stubborn.

Robin handles the delicate situation. Luffy waits for Usopp to show up, but he never does. Following Iceberg's excellent suggestion, the Straw Hats agree to name their shiny new ship the Thousand Sunny as they set sail for new adventure.

Ace hunts down Teech for killing his crewmate, but Teech demonstrates his ability to control the most evil of all the Devil Fruit powers.

The Straw Hats continue their journey into uncharted waters while taking advantage of the enhancements aboard their newly commissioned pirate ship. The Straw Hats offer assistance to a group of fishermen. The captain gives them a barrel of booze as a token of thanks, but it puts everyone to sleep.
