I think Oda Sensei also trying to tell us how being 'clown' and 'liar' nowadays in society actually make big impacts to the world establishment.

Bro imagine Ussop got the title "The Bravest Warrior In the Sea" because he challenged Buggy-sama, That would be hilarious 😂.

theory: Buggy isn't actually immune to cuts, he splits himself where the cut would be, making him extremely skilled with his fruit, impressing the government on the war when he fought Mihawk

It’s a shame that Jango didn’t join buggy’s crew. His power fits with the circus theme and having a yonko crew made of a bunch of luffy’s enemies he faced along his jurney would be awesome

An awakened chop chop fruit could be terrifying. If he could extend the ability to remove body parts to others, he'd be like Law without the specifics that Laws fruit needs to work

Buggy, Luffy, shanks, and Blackbeard have all fought with or against each other at some point. I find this very amazing

Hello everyone Just wanted to tell you all that 🌟Jesus loves us all give your life to Christ, He died for our sins repent and trust in Him alone.His return is soon God bless you all Amen🙏🏾. Have a blessed day 😁🤍

I had the thought that when Buggy saw the straw hat, he immediately recognized it and went easy on Luffy. He's been planning things out since then.

Buggy’s fruit is probably a mythical Zoan type as well. His awakening is “The Clown god, McDonnald.” 😂

I always thought Buggy was much more capable than what we've seen previously. Every other surviving member of Roger's crew has been an absolute monster. Bullet, Rayleigh, Krokus, Oden, Scopper Gaban, Shanks... All absolute beasts. Buggy, in my opinion, never showed much of his actual fighting prowess but was the closest person to actually killing Luffy, before Kaido. Mihawk's Yoru, a haki I fused black blade was overpowered without Buggy seemingly using any haki at all. But, being on Roger's ship with such powerhouses whom all use haki in advanced forms tells me he was on par with Shanks. Buggy didn't want to be a Yonko, or Warlord, he was on the hunt for Captain John's treasure. But Buggy is an ultimate opportunist, taking whatever comes his was as a blessing/gift. And Shanks knows Buggy more than anyone else, literally have up going to Laugh Tale because Buggy got sick. Shanks at Marine Ford, treated Buggy as an equal and it was noticed, it then came out that he was a former member of Roger's crew. Openly turned down an offer from a Yonko. I'm calling this right now. Crocodile, Weevil, Hancock, and Mihawk joined Buggy's fleet and pushed away all the Marines. That is the part of chaos we haven't seen yet, outside of Wano.. the SSG failed miserably...

let's not forget, buggy never fainted when facing luffy's haki in marineford, while Mr3 and many marines and even whitebeard pirates fainted. it shows that buggy has at least SOME willpower and might not be completely the coward we see in the funny scenes

One of the many reasons why Buggy rose into the Emperor of the Seas is his underground connections. After the War of the Best, with a crew of heinous people in the entire One Piece world, his brotherly connection with Shanks, and him being one of the apprentices of Pirate King's crew, his power grew immensely without anyone noticing it-- especially in the underrated underground/ mafia setting in One Piece world where the likes of Capone Bege, Morgans, and Doflamingo were some of the players there. Now that the whole operation of Doflamingo a.k.a "Joker" is destroyed, the Buggy Delivery Service competes in the underground world now that we are near the endgame of the story. His previous title as Warlord sets the stage for his power to grow exponentially. While we are shocked by the news, it is natural, however (in my opinion) that his place is justified. It is refreshing to see that the power dynamics of the Emperors now do not focus on brute strength alone. He, being one of the 4 strongest pirates sets a new standard in the Yonkou system. Strength alone is not enough. (although it is necessary to continue because of stronger foes) Influence plays an important role now in the new saga of the pirate world. With the extent of the Buggy Delivery Service, and his established background as one of the apprentices in Roger's crew, more or less his influence became larger. In addition, a more extensive influence may equate to a larger territory since most of their transactions deal with the underground. While the likes of Whitebeard, Shanks, Blackbeard, Big Mom, and Luffy marked their territories with their flags, Buggy may have placed his territories under the facade of "trade" that his crew specializes in. And I think it is common that the place where your business operates is presumed to be under your influence or territory. Buggy is different from the three because he is the type of Yonkou that is more about "business." Thus, he may be perceived as the "weakest", but in terms of influence and power, both in money and politics and sorts of tactics, he really is in another league with Shanks and Luffy.

I’d be willing to bet that buggy was always a monster level powerhouse but was fulfilling a destiny of being a signal of the new king of the pirates. Buggy has proven himself time and time again to be one of the most clever and resilient characters in the story. No matter the situation he is presented with buggy is able to retain or build a loyal crew. If we’re to assume that buggy was in east blue to find the greatest treasure of them all, maybe that treasure is the next pirate king. Buggy has shown 0 interest in the position but he is the king of character that would understand best that a close proximity to the pirate king would yield the best payout treasure. We’ll see though I guess.

The crazy thing to me about Mihawk - the first spotlighted time we've seen a paramecia type use their DF to evade haki-infused attacks was Katakuri. By spotlighted, I mean an instance where the feat was presented seriously (e.g. Nami has bludgeoned Luffy many times, but it was first treated as a serious feat when Garp first did it post-Enies Lobby).

I've been wondering forever when Oda was going to reveal what buggies true power and true purpose was because he's been seeming super weak the whole time but you can tell that oda had a plan for him

I love the theory of baggy hiding his true power from everyone and doing other small things that now little by little got him the title of yonko..

Doflamingo, Big Mom and even Kaido have lost their "investors" from the Criminal Underworld or the Syndicates...those investors have turned to Buggy's own business organization and got rich from his clients. Add also Buggy's discovery of Captain John's hidden treasure, thanks to a map Luffy gave Buggy while they were at Impel Down!

Honestly buggy is such an amazing and harmless character. From what I remember all he ever really cared about was remaining low-key and finding treasures that the fact he's considered a villain never made any sense to me since he never actually really hurt anyone or outright attacked anyone and it's usually him being attacked and having to defend himself without hurting anyone severely or at all in the process.

The only reason I believe Buggy has not been secretly hiding some awesome powers, is because we've heard his internal thought process many times. Internal buggy is more terrified than even external buggy.

Imagine being the only worthy person who can spar with Go d. Usopp and given the lowly title of yonkou the govt are always so bad at estimating power
