Chapter 60: RBTC: Chapter 60
---
With the help of Buggy's several sword energies, half of the weaker Marine officers surrounding Kuro and his crew fell.
The powerful Marines who were besieging Weevil and his crew were caught off guard by the sword energies. They were pushed back by Weevil and his crew, who seized the opportunity. In an instant, the battle on the Glory was reversed. They were forced to retreat towards their warship.
Sakazuki also saw the situation below, but he had many concerns. His attacks were too powerful. One punch could not only hit Weevil and his crew, but his subordinates might also bear the brunt of his attack. So, he didn't attack immediately.
Just then, Buggy flew towards him. Sakazuki's face showed clear anger. In an instant, dozens of magma fists attacked Buggy as he charged towards him.
Buggy didn't dodge. He swung his sword with all his might, severing or deflecting the fists. This was to avoid attacking the crew below.
Then, the two began to fight again. Akainu's fists swung harder and harder. He held nothing back. He used all kinds of different moves in battle: "Hound Dog," "Great Fire," "Hound's Bite Inferno," "Meteor Volcano." He used them all on Buggy. Buggy was seriously injured again in the battle. Blood flowed from his mouth, and he had dozens of wounds on his body.
But perhaps because of this, Buggy felt a strange force slowly awakening within him. The wounds on his body were slowly healing, and his stamina was slowly recovering.
After carefully sensing it, he understood what was happening. He had finally broken through to "Life Return" in the previous battle. These effects were the results of "Life Return."
Reaching "Life Return," Buggy vaguely felt that his Devil Fruit ability might have reached a substantial improvement.
Akainu also noticed Buggy's change. He noticed that Buggy's injuries were slowly healing. Seeing this, Akainu immediately launched an attack. Dozens of magma fists attacked Buggy again.
Buggy didn't use Soru (moonwalk) to dodge. Instead, he used his Split-Split Fruit. As he had felt, the Split-Split Fruit had indeed improved significantly.
Now, the Split-Split Fruit could become particles. It had changed from being in chunks to being in grains. When a fist attacked, his body acted as if it were turning into an element. The place where the fist attacked instantly formed a large hole. The fist flew directly through the hole. Buggy was unharmed. He dodged the other fists in the same way. None of the fists injured Buggy in the slightest.
Akainu's face instantly turned serious. The other party's recent change had caused his Devil Fruit ability to change. His "Meteor Volcano" hadn't caused any damage to him. He was completely unharmed.
Seeing the other party's momentum growing stronger and his wounds clearly improving, Akainu charged forward again. He launched another attack, "Hound's Bite Inferno." The battle continued.
After pushing back the Marines, Weevil and his crew didn't take advantage of their victory. Kuro quickly ran towards the cockpit. The others blocked the Marines from boarding the ship. In this situation, the Glory began to sail.
Seeing the Glory sailing away from the warship, the Marine officers didn't wait for Sakazuki to give orders. Instead, they woke up the unconscious Marines and set off in their warship, chasing after the Glory.
Sakazuki and Buggy were both very satisfied with the situation below.
Akainu believed that his soldiers chasing after Weevil and his crew was the right choice. They didn't need to wait for him. His final outcome would be victory. The Marines doing this would prevent any escapees.
Buggy believed that the Glory's performance could completely escape the Marines' pursuit. As long as Weevil and his crew escaped successfully, even if Buggy lost, he was confident that he could escape successfully. He wouldn't be trapped and end up with a complete defeat.
As Weevil and his crew escaped, a black shadow quickly flew out of the Glory, disappearing into the high sky in an instant.
Buggy and Sakazuki had no more worries. The battle became even more intense. As Buggy's martial arts reached "Life Return," his overall strength increased significantly. In the following day-long battle, he fought Sakazuki back and forth. Both of them sustained different wounds. This time, Sakazuki didn't completely defend against the attacks of the strengthened Buggy.
The battle became more and more brutal. If Buggy hadn't mastered "Life Return" and his body wasn't recovering quickly, he might have been defeated by Sakazuki. He might have already started to prepare to escape.
As the battle continued, Sakazuki's face became more serious. He didn't expect the other party to make a breakthrough in battle. With his current physique, he couldn't hold on much longer. If he continued to fight, his outcome might not be much better.
Sakazuki seemed to have made a decision. In an instant, his entire body began to turn into magma, piece by piece. Thick black smoke billowed from all parts of his body. His body was expanding violently.
Buggy saw Sakazuki's current condition and his cold expression. He guessed that Sakazuki might be preparing to use his strongest attack, a move to decide the outcome. He didn't want to continue fighting Buggy.
Facing Sakazuki at this moment, Buggy's face also became more serious. He gathered all his strength into his right hand, En'yō. In an instant, En'yō seemed to be ignited. Huge flames instantly burned fiercely. Looking at Sakazuki charging towards him, Buggy swung his sword with all his might. A huge flame hurricane spun towards Sakazuki, who was charging.
This time, the flame hurricane was almost twice the size and even more powerful. But under Sakazuki's powerful, fiery fist, it didn't have much effect.
Although it momentarily blocked his path, he didn't retreat at all. Instead, after a brief stalemate, Sakazuki directly charged forward towards Buggy, pushing through the spinning flame hurricane.
Seeing this, Buggy knew that this move wasn't a match for Sakazuki at full strength. He instantly disappeared and appeared directly above Sakazuki.
Before Sakazuki could react, Buggy directly used his newly awakened Haki. Perhaps due to the seriousness of the situation, the Haki was successfully used.
He wasn't hoping that the Haki would do any damage to Sakazuki. Instead, Buggy wanted to seize that moment.
