Forum:Will Buggy become the Pirate King?

This seems crazy, I know. But that is why I'm starting to believe that he might. Think about it: When you start reading One Piece, you assume from the beginning that Luffy will eventually become the Pirate King. But perhaps this is too simple for Oda? No one would think that Buggy had any chance of becoming the Pirate King, because he is defeated by Luffy so early on, and he is not considered a very dangerous pirate in the beginning. But he was once a member of Roger pirates, the Whitebeard pirates thought that he had a certain talent, he has been returning over and over again throughout the series, he broke out of Impel Down and he is now a Shichibukai. I'm thinking that Buggy should not be underrestimated. Buggy is so far the only enemy who has been able to lay a finger on Shanks' straw hat, which could perhaps be seen in a symbolic way. He is also the only one of the main enemies who has had a real relationship with Shanks and the Roger pirates. I just keep picturing this scene at the end of One Piece where Luffy is just about to grab whatever the One Piece is, but then Buggy's hand pops out and snatches it from him with the help of his Bara Bara no Mi power ... Even if this would be disappointing to Luffy and many One Piece fans, it would still be a pretty epic ending according to me xD I would definitely prefer it over Blackbeard becoming the Pirate King, anyway. Perhaps Luffy will defeat Blackbeard and then Buggy beats him to finding the One Piece?! Buggy also seems to be a favourite of Oda's and is one of his oldest characters. When you consider all this, it actually makes quite a lot of sense to me ... But what do you think?Chanpuruuu (talk) 19:20, March 26, 2013 (UTC)
