In the story of One Piece, becoming the Pirate King is the ultimate goal for most characters in Eiichiro Oda’s manga. Being the Pirate King in One Piece means showing the power and authority one possesses. However, the road to becoming a Pirate King is quite challenging as only a person who has successfully obtained the One Piece treasure can claim the title.
Some One Piece characters are likely to start vying for the throne to become the successor of Gol D Roger and become the Pirate King. However, obtaining the One Piece treasure is no easy feat. One must conquer the Grand Line by reaching the last island called Raftel. To reach Raftel Island, four road poneglyphs must first be collected. Many battles involving powerful characters take place to claim the Pirate King title.
Some characters that are likely to be involved in the quest for the Pirate King throne are the four Emperors or Yonkou, namely Shanks, Kurohige, Luffy, and Buggy. In recent chapters of One Piece, Eiichiro Oda has revealed the newest abilities of three Yonkou, including Shanks’ advanced haki, Luffy’s power of Dewa Nika, and Kurohige’s two devil fruit powers.
Buggy, the clown, has not yet revealed his latest abilities, which also raises questions from people who do not agree with him being promoted to a Yonkou. Some believe that Buggy is still a weak character that only has luck on his side, allowing him to become a Yonkou.
However, Buggy is expected to showcase his pride by appearing with the Cross Guild, one of the strongest and most dangerous organizations in One Piece. The Cross Guild includes some powerful characters such as Mihawk, the strongest swordsman in One Piece, and Crocodile, a former prisoner of Impel Down.
If Buggy wants to achieve his goal of becoming a Pirate King, he can take advantage of the help of Cross Guild members. However, that would be quite challenging because Buggy would have to face opponents like Shanks, Luffy, and Kurohige. Buggy’s appearance with Cross Guild will be an exciting and noteworthy event, especially to the World Government, particularly the Marine Admirals who are starting to get some wanted fugitives.
