Short Summary
Just as Buggy is about to strike Nami, he is suddenly brought to the ground in pain because of Luffy is striking his lower body. Nami then angers Buggy by claiming his treasure as her own, causing the later to attack in anger by splitting his body into dozens of pieces. However Luffy once again notices a flaw in Buggy's technique and distracts Buggy long enough for Nami to attempt an attack of her own. As Buggy tries to reassemble his body, it's revealed Nami has captured his limbs, and is now rendered into a chibi version of himself. Luffy sends him flying with Gomu Gomu no Bazooka.

Long Summary
Nami is in trouble, Buggy launches his top half at her with knives ready. Just as he is about to reach her, Luffy notices his lower half has not moved at all and kicks him in the lower regions. Buggy lays on the ground in pain, Luffy reminds him who he is fighting. Luffy tells Nami to abandon her treasures and run, but Nami refuses. As Nami claims the treasure is now hers, Buggy gets mad but Nami as a thief refuses to listen to the words from another.

Buggy then separates himself up further launching all parts of himself at Nami, except his feet which are acting as normal. Luffy spots his feet and grabs them, as Buggy continues to chase Nami Luffy begins to torture his feet causing Buggy intense pain and discomfort. Nami swings the bag of treasure around in an attempt to attack Buggy, but Buggy grabs the treasure. Neither one of the pair refusing to let go, Buggy attempts to strike Nami to make her, however Luffy once again reminds him who he is supposed to be fighting. Buggy is knocked into the bag of treasure, ripping the bag.

With Buggy apparently defeated, Luffy grabs the map of the Grand Line.
