Compared To The Original Luffy, This Luffy Is Way Too Curly!

Crane: "The training method that Red Luffy gave Buggy seems quite good."

Sengoku: "Indeed, to be able to come up with a Devil Fruit training method in such a short time, his talent is truly terrifying!"

Borsalino: "Luckily, our Straw Hat kid on this side isn't that diligent, otherwise it would be troublesome!"

Monkey D. Garp: "This useless thing!"

Jinbei: "Seeing it now, I wonder why I feel like that Buggy over there might actually succeed in his training?"

Nami: "Your feeling is correct, because Luffy... has a certain quality that can make his companions become better and better!! That Red Luffy over there not only has this quality, but also holds himself and his companions to high standards. Under such conditions, if Buggy still hasn't succeeded, then he's really pathetic!!"

Buggy: "Damn it, Nami! Watch your words!"

Nami: "I'm talking about that Buggy over there, why are you getting worked up?"

Buggy: "..."

[Several days pass, the ship sails on the sea.]

["If there are no mistakes, we should arrive at this coastline in at most two days. We need to resupply somewhere before we can continue sailing."]

[Buggy points at a small village marked on the navigation map, Syrup Village.]

[Luffy nods and throws a knife to Buggy: "Alright, put away the navigation map and continue training."]

[Buggy's face instantly becomes as ugly as if he had eaten shit~~~]

[Training again...]

[Buggy's head starts to ache just from hearing it!]

[So, he struggles again~~~]

["No... I simply can't understand, even if I succeed in my training, what difference would it make? It seems like it wouldn't be of much use!!"]

["This passive separation is used for countering sword attacks, but if it's active separation, unless it's at the joints, there's no way to fix the weapon for an attack!!"]

["I can't just use pieces of my body as shurikens to kill targets, right?"]

[Buggy looks miserable, struggling and trembling~~~]

[Luffy puts his right thumb into his mouth, lightly jumps, and then blows hard!!]

[Whoosh!——]

[His right fist instantly becomes as big as a large water barrel!]

"Hey...!"

[In Buggy's shocked and angry gaze, Luffy's fist smashes into Buggy~~~]

[Boom!!——]

[Buggy's body is sent flying into the sea!!]

[Luffy extends his arm and pulls Buggy back from above the sea surface.]

"You bastard, can't we just talk? Why do you have to resort to violence?!"

[Buggy is about to explode with anger, but he can do nothing~~~]

[Luffy gestures with his fist: "You saw it too, your passive separation can ignore slashes, but it can't ignore punches."]

[Buggy is furious: "But what does this have to do with training? Even if I train to have active separation, won't I still get hit?"]

[Luffy shakes his head, walks to a corner, and takes a handful of sand from a sandbag, gently tossing it.]

Then he punched the pile of sand.

His fist went through the sand, which fell to the ground. Although it scattered, it was still sand!

"The initial step of practicing the ability to split and slice is just the beginning. My ultimate idea is for your splitting ability to be as powerful as this sand. By then, whether it's a slash or a punch, you can ignore it and achieve true physical attack immunity!"

When Luffy said this, the chat room exploded!

Damn!

Borsalino: "Wow, that red Luffy over there has something! Just after encountering a Devil Fruit, he can think of such a powerful development direction. Impressive!"

Kuzan: "If a person with the splitting fruit ability can really split to the extent of sand, wouldn't it be similar to our Logia elementalization?"

Sakazuki: "No... Logia elementalization can ignore physical attacks, but it can be captured by Armament Haki. However, his ability to split into sand can even greatly weaken the effects of Armament Haki attacks!"

Hawk: "When the attack lands on him, it immediately scatters into sand, without receiving much force damage."

Gol·D·Roger: "Buggy, you should give it a try too! If you really master it, you will be invincible!"

Shanks: "Yes, Buggy, the training idea provided by Luffy over there is really great!"

"True physical attack immunity..."

"Listening to Luffy's 'painted pie,' Buggy's heart couldn't help but beat faster..."

He stared at the sand on the ground...

Can it really reach that level?

If my splitting ability reaches that level, how many threats to my existence will there be on this vast sea?

That bastard Shanks is already one of the Four Emperors on the sea, while I am just a small pirate in the East Blue...

Since the news of Shanks becoming one of the Four Emperors spread across the sea, Buggy has always felt a sense of desolation when thinking about this comparison!

It's like working together with a brother, and now he drives a Land Rover while you ride a small electric scooter, and it's second-hand. How can you not feel crushed...?

And now, Buggy's breathing became more and more rapid as he stared at the sand on the ground...

If I can really reach that level, I, Buggy, will also become a famous figure on this vast sea!

Shanks, just you wait, I, Buggy, won't be any worse than you!!!

Thinking of this, Buggy squatted down, carefully gathered the scattered sand on the ground, put it in a bag, and hung it around his waist.

"Straw Hat! Although I'm actually not happy with you, from now on, I will train according to the method you mentioned!"

"I... I once planned a lofty goal for myself!"

"But when I started to become decadent, that ideal version of myself gradually drifted away from me~"

"Now... I have to double my efforts!!!"

"Not for anything else, just to catch up with that version of myself that once existed in my ideals!!!"

There was a firmness in Buggy's eyes...

He bent down, picked up the knife on the ground...

And without hesitation, he slashed towards himself!!
