"Urggh~ I can finally sleep well!" Said Tanaka with a feeling of relief and fresh.

He stretched his hands up and felt his strength gathering again.

"Well, round two let's start, Buggy I'll beat your red nose until it turns purple!" Tanaka Assert.

He immediately got out of bed, walking to the main door of the house. When he was outside, he immediately headed to Shushu's shop.

Arriving there, Tanaka saw that the store had been burned, leaving only the ruins of the black store.

"Ah, I'm late, I should have gotten up sooner so this wouldn't happen." Said Tanaka who felt disappointed in him.

"I have to find Luffy and the others, they must be back at Buggy's base." Think Tanaka.

As he ran within a few meters, his stomach rang, he felt extremely hungry and thirsty.

"Damn, why now?" Ask Tanaka.

At that very moment, he remembered that he could return to earth to eat food and return to the world of one piece with a full stomach.

"Go to the wonder room." Tanaka.

In a short time, Tanaka was already in a vast and windy meadow.

Without further ado he went straight back to earth, more precisely in his boarding room.

"I'm back!" Tanaka Mumbles.

He immediately walked towards the door of his boarding room, but at that moment, he realized that his body was very smelly, because he had not bathed in a few days and also did not change clothes.

"Maybe I better take a shower first and then eat." Think Tanaka.

Without further ado she immediately did some self-cleaning activities in the bathroom, once done, put on new clothes and did not forget to spray perfume to make it smell good.

After the self-improvement was done, he immediately came out of his room and saw that it was already night.

"Gosh, it's night, no ... How many days have you been on Earth?" Tanaka asked himself as he looked at the darkness with the lighting of the lights around his room.

He immediately searches for his smart phone that was not carried away by him while moving to another universe.

Tanaka finds his smartphone and turns it on, but it turns out that his smartphone has run out of battery so he has to recharge the battery.

"Okay, how many days have you been on earth?" Tanaka asked himself while looking at his battery-charged smartphone and coming back to life.

"Now the 18th, I go to another world if it is not wrong the 9th and in the one world for one month and six days if not wrong, but on earth the time only lasts 9 days, but on earth the time only lasts, good is the difference in his time on earth longer than that world." Tanaka Mumbles.

He immediately headed back out to look for food and since it was almost midnight, the cheap and still open place to eat was Warmindo.

Without further ado, Tanaka immediately went to Warmindo which was close to his cost, using the only matic motor that he also made as a money-making tool.

"Where are you going, just looking?" Ask a roomholder who is close to the boarding gate.

"Get out of town, it's back." Answer Tanaka.

"There's a bang project? Tumben went all the way out of town?" Ask the host.

"Yes, that's it, yes, I want to eat, the stomach's been rumbling ney." Pamit Tanaka's.

"Yes, yeah, okay, bang, be careful." Said the resident of the boarding.

Tanaka immediately drove his motorbike to nearby Warmindo. Arriving at the place he immediately ordered so many foods, rice with side dishes in the form of eggs, egg-boiled noodles, and a glass of iced tea.

The dish was quickly on the table that Tanaka was using.

"Hahaha, I miss this food so much." Said Tanaka who ate with full enjoyment of the dish.

15 Minutes was the time he spent on the dish and his stomach was full.

Tanaka immediately paid for the dishes he ate and by the time he saw the fritters, he immediately thought of bringing the snacks into the one piece world to share with Luffy and Zoro.

"There's a fry party, mas? Lots of buying them." Ask the seller who saw Tanaka enter one by one fried into plastic.

"Yes, that's it, understandably, willing to stay up late, it feels without fritters, it's very less the effect of staying up late, hahaha." Tanaka.

He then paid again according to the amount of fried food he took. After that, Tanaka immediately returned to his boarding house with a bag of plastic full of fried food.

"Let's go back to the world of one piece!"

Tanaka immediately went to the wonder room, but at the time of wanting to go to where Luffy and the others were at the moment, he did not know the name of the city.

"Damn, how could I forget such an important thing!" Tanaka Shouted.

He returned to his boarding room, wanting to find out the name of the city where Luffy fought Buggy for the first time by browsing.

Picking up his smartphone, opening a browser app and typing keywords related to what he was looking for.

"Oh, it's called orange." Think Tanaka.

After knowing the name of the city, Tan immediately put back his smartphone. He immediately returned to the wonder room to be able to go to the world of one piece.

As Tanaka prepares to return to the one piece world, Lutfi, Zoro and Nami are already in front of Buggy's pirate base.

"Buggy, according to my promise, I came to beat you up." Luffy.

"Mugivara!" Said Buggy then his previously separated hands back stuck. "Bad! Dare to come back to this place and challenge Captain Buggy!"

"Listen yes, all I want is the map and the treasure. That's all." Nami.

"Yes, I understand." Zoro's words are short.

"Fool, what are you doing here? This should not be your business the immigrants. This is my fight. This is my town and I'll protect it! Don't interfere!" Boodle said angrily.

But Luffy suddenly slammed Boodle's head against the wall and knocked him unconscious.

"What have you done to him? Why did you do that to the Mayor?" Shouted Nami.

"He's just in the way." Luffy said casually.

"Good idea. If the old man fought, he would definitely die. It's better that way." Zoro said in support of Luffy's actions.

"Alright, let's-" Luffy's words were cut off by Tanaka's voice calling out to him.

"Luffy, Zoro wait for me!" Tanaka Shouted.

"Tanaka, you've come!" Luffy said innocently.

"Where have you been?" Ask Zoro.

"You bad guys, leave me alone, am I not a member of your pirate, Luffy?" Ask the angry Tanaka.

"Shi shi shi, sorry, I forgot, but now that you've come, can we start?" Ask Luffy.

Tanaka nodded his head and looked at Buggy and his crew.

Seeing Tanaka's presence made Buggy remember the events when he was almost dead by a mysterious force.

His body trembled violently and felt fear. Without realizing it, he slightly retreated backwards, wanting to hide behind his subordinates.

But it was stopped because he heard a quite insulting scream.

"Hey, you big, red, ugly, red nose!!! Let's start the fight!" Shouted Luffy.

All the members of the Buggy Pirates dropped their jaws hearing Luffy's cry.

"Yes, let's turn that red nose into purple!" Add Tanaka.

"You shouldn't have said that." Nami said in a panic.

Zoro also became panicked as Luffy provoked Buggy while Tanaka just stood up with a flat facial expression beside Luffy.

"You're really pissing me off, stupid boy. How dare you call me that. Quickly fire Buggy Dama!" Buggy said furiously.

Buggy Dama was fired. Nami had gone into hiding, while Zoro kept his distance from Luffy.

Tan simply retreated to the back of Luffy's body which made his body become like a balloon and bounced the Buggy Dama back.

"Yosha, about the enemy." Shouted Luffy happily.

"Good shot, captain!" Praise Tanaka.

"What exactly are you?" Nami shouted furiously.

"You should have told me first if you'd do that, don't surprise people." Zoro.

"Good, the number of enemies has decreased!" Luffy said proudly.

"Since you fought that lion, I knew that there was something strange about you. Such a thing cannot be done by ordinary people. Quickly explain to me." Nami.

"Calm down, Nami. Let me explain." Tanaka.

The middle-aged man explained what happened to Luffy's body.

"Luffy is a rubber man because he eats a devil fruit called gomu gomu, so his body can stretch and become a balloon like that because he's a rubber man."

Buggy then emerged from the ruins by holding his men in both hands as a shield.

"How dare you do this to us." Say Buggy.

"He made his men a shield!" Nami.

"Typical people who don't deserve to be leaders, sacrificing subordinates for self-safety, that's really trash that has to be eradicated." Tanaka said cynically.

Mohji emerges from the rubble, and soon someone with a bangs like Sasuke also appears by making Mohji's pet, Ritchie, a shield.

"It's really an insult, captain." Said the man on the bang.

"Oh, Cabaji. I can't hold back my anger anymore." Said Buggy.

"Cabaji, you brash! What did you do to Ritchie?!" Shouted Mohji furiously.

"This ugly cat you mean? I don't want my clothes to get dirty, so I'm using her as a shield." Said Cabaji casually.

Cabaji releases Richie while Mohji immediately approaches Ritchie with a worried face.

"Damn you, Cabaji" said an angry Mohji.

"Eh, that straw hat kid, captain, be careful with him, he who has defeated me, he's a devillic fruit-eater who makes his body become like rubber." Mohji.

"Fruit demon? It is only fitting that he could return the cannonball ... Wait a minute, Mohji when you already know, but why don't you tell me about this!" Said Buggy who caught Mohji and threw him at Luffy.

"I told you ... Move you!" Shouting Mohji.

"You're the one who stepped aside!" Said Luffy who gave a kick towards Nami who jumped so that Mohji fell onto the stone road.

"Captain Buggy." Call Cabaji.

"What's up, Cabaji?" Ask Buggy.

"Let me take care of everything." Cabaji replied confidently.

"Yosh, show them your acrobatic powers." Buggy's orders.

As Cabaji was about to attack Luffy using the sword, Zoro quickly held him back.

"If you use a sword, I'm your opponent." Zoro.

"That's fair, Roronoa Zoro. Fight as a swordsman with you." Cabaji said, then he saw Zoro's wound reopening.

"Hey Zoro, shouldn't you rest. I can handle them." Luffy Pinta.

"That's right Zoro, after all there won't be a fair fight because you're hurt too." Tanaka.

"Don't get in my way!" Shouted Zoro.

"Hard-headed!" Thought the upset Tanaka.

Tanaka saw Cabaji grinning and then spitting fire at Zoro.

On that occasion, Cabaji kicked his wound which made Zoro scream in pain.

"What's wrong? I don't think I kicked you hard." Said Cabaji casually.

"Sy base! He's after the wound!" Said Nami.

Tanaka felt a little worried about the state of the Zoro.

"It's just that I helped Zoro because he would definitely reject her" Tanaka thought

Cabaji then launched the next attack by causing a lot of dust.

"What is acrobatic? It's just dust." Zoro said then suddenly Cabaji attacked him but Zoro swiftly held him back.

Cabaji again threw a kick at Zoro's wound which made Zoro again scream in pain.

"He did it again!" Nami said with annoyance at Cabaji's cunning.

"What's wrong? It's so sad to see such a great man as you helpless. I see, so you've realized it? Making the Buggy Pirates enemies was a big mistake." Cabaji said with excitement.

"How could he fight with such a wound? It's impressive he's still alive. Why did you just shut up, he almost got killed!" Nami said to Luffy who was just staring flatly at Zoro.

Tanaka clenched his hands until his knuckles turned white while staring angrily at Cabaji.

"This is his fight, if we interfere, he will be very offended, consider himself weak and angry at us." Tanaka told Nami.

Nami looked at Tanaka and then she went back to silence and stared at Zoro's fight.

"Roronoa Zoro, you're dead!" Cabaji said and quickly attacked Zoro.

"The men are sickening." Zoro said and stood up. "Seeing for my wound..Why is it fun for you?"

Cabaji then managed to stab Zoro's wound whose attack was completely avoided by Zoro.

"Why didn't he dodge?!" Nami asked who was shocked by Zoro's actions.

"Are you satisfied? I'll show you the difference between us!" Zoro said with a smile.

"Whoa, cool!" Luffy said innocently.

"So this is the real Roronoa Zoro. I underestimated you." Cabaji.

"My dream is to become the World's Greatest Swordsman. I can't be defeated, even just once!" Zoro.

"Yes, with determination as strong as steel is what makes you a real man and admired by many, Zoro." Think Tanaka.

"Oh, yeah. So you want to show me that power of your spirit. But don't worry, you won't be able to defeat me with just spirit. It's your fault if you lose." Said Cabaji haughtily.

"Don't joke! If I lose to someone like you with a wound like this, I can't imagine what my future will be!" Zoro said with a small laugh.

"You, Zoro!" Luffy said encouragingly.

"If you lose, I'll laugh at you and tell everyone that a swordsman is weak!" Tanaka.

"I'm not weak!" Shouted Zoro furiously.

"That's why, defeat him and prove that you are the strongest and most powerful swordsman." Tanaka.

"Yumpp! I'll prove it, look at it!" Zoro said with confidence.

"Do as you like. Pirates like you are always killing people. Whether you win or lose, it has nothing to do with me. I'll go find the treasure myself, and I'll say goodbye. If it is destined, we will meet again. See you, fight!" Nami said and ran away.

"Yes, thank you!" Luffy said innocently.

"That's not something you should thank me for, Luffy." Tanaka said sweetdrop.

"I'll bring out my greatest acrobatic technique." Cabaji said, then attacked Zoro with gasing.

Zoro easily fended off the gasing. Then Cabaji climbed up the wall and attacked Zoro from above.

Buggy also attacked Zoro from behind to help Cabaji.

"Cabaj! I'll hold him! Quickly finish him!" Say Buggy.

"As your request, captain!." Cabaji.

Luffy quickly stepped on the hand of Buggy who wanted to restrain Zoro, making Buggy scream in pain.

"Don't interfere in Zoro's fight!" Strictly Luffy was angry.

Tanaka also looked at Buggy with a sharp gaze.

"Just stay there, your turn will come!" Tanaka said furiously.

"I don't need the captain's help to beat a guy like you." Cabaji.

"That's enough, I'm tired." Zoro.

"I thought you were going to give up fighting. I'm impressed to see you fighting with wounds like that, too." Praise Cabaji.

"I'm getting tired of that sickening acrobatic technique of yours!" Zoro.

"Then let me save your history with one of my attacks! With my true sword technique!" Cabaji said he attacked Zoro but the three swordsman quickly slashed at Cabaji and won the fight.

"Kummer!" Shouted Buggy.

"The Buggy Pirate Group was defeated by thieves." Cabaji said, then he fell.

"We are not thieves..." Sahut Zoro then fell from exhaustion and also his wounds that reopened. "we are Pirates."

"Luffy, I'm sleeping first." Pinta Zoro then he went to sleep, I could only sigh I saw that.

"Yes, leave the rest to me." Luffy.

"You Pirates?" Ask Buggy.

"Yes, we're going to the Grand Line." Luffy said proudly.

"Ordinary people like you can't go there, you idiot. Even though you can get to the Grand Line, what are you going to do there? Looking at your own grave?" Buggy asked and he laughed.

"I'll be the Pirate King!" Luffy said firmly.

"Stop that shit, you idiot! You're gonna be Pirate King? Then I will become a god! The one who will become the Pirate King and possess the entire treasure in the world is me! Stop that stupid dream!" Buggy's orders.

"You talk too much. Don't talk too much, just move forward." Luffy.

"That straw hat you're wearing reminds me of that guy, and it really makes me sick. That brash red-haired fellow!" Say Buggy.

"You mean that red hair? Do you know Shanks?" Ask Luffy.

"What if I knew him?" Ask Buggy.

"Where is he now?" Ask Luffy.

"What'sthis? Why do they ask each other?" Think Tanaka.

"Well, if you say you know him, I know him. If I say I don't know him, I don't know him either." Say Buggy.

"What are you talking about? Are you stupid?" Luffy.

"You're the fool!" Said the upset Buggy. "Are I going to say something you want to know? I'm not that kind of person.

"No problem, I just have to beat you up!" Luffy's.

"You're gonna die before you can do it. Rubber won't be able to bounce off a knife attack." Say Buggy.

"Yes, I can't." Luffy said innocently making Tanaka again sigh.

"Why do you say what he said?" Think Tanaka.

Buggy quickly attacks Luffy but Luffy also avoids him quickly. Luffy then counterattacked Buggy but Luffy's attack was also successfully avoided by Buggy.

Buggy then returned to attack Luffy, Luffy who tried to resist Buggy's attack made himself thrown. Luffy also got some scratches.

Luffy then took his straw hat which fell and there was a hole in his hat due to Buggy's previous attack.

"Bad!" Luffy said furiously.

"What's wrong? What's wrong if I hurt your face?" Say Buggy.

"How dare you.. How dare you ruin this hat?! This is a precious thing to me! Whoever broke it I won't forgive!" Luffy.

"It looks like it's a historic hat to you." Say Buggy.

"That's right!" Luffy.

"Is that as important as your hat? If it's that important to you, protect it if you can!" Say Buggy.

He sneerily charged silently towards Luffy from behind with his arms separated.

The attack could have been avoided by Luffy, but the straw hat he was holding did not survive, the straw hat was pierced by a dagger, adding a hole in Luffy's straw hat and flying towards Buggy.

"How can this butute hat be a treasure? The name of the treasure is gold and a shining thing and it shows the class of its owner. This butut straw hat is a treasure you say? Don't make me laugh!" Said Buggy haughtily.

Tanaka quickly took the straw hat with his force and also pushed Buggy backwards until he fell down onto the stone path.

"Treasure isn't just gold and shining things like you said!" Tanaka said firmly.

"The gift of a person who is considered important and valuable is also a treasure of Karun, regardless of how it is shaped, so keep your mouth shut! People like you will never understand!" Said Tanaka who stared angrily at Buggy.

"Damn you! What are you doing to me?! What power did you use to attack me?" Buggy asked and attacked Tanaka, but Tanaka easily resisted the attack with force.

"What's? What exactly are you doing? Why can't my gun hit you? What devil fruit are you eating?" Ask Buggy.

"Fruit demon? I don't eat any devil fruit at all, this is a force force and I won't tell you what force is." Obviously Tanaka who again pushed Buggy to the back so that he fell back into the stone road.

"Luffy I'm handing this clown over to you, I'll fight the subordinates so as not to disturb your fight." Tanaka.

"And his hat, let me take care, so as not to add to the damage." Add Tanaka.

"Yes, thank you, Tanaka, I put that straw hat on." Luffy.
