One Piece: Why Buggy Will Become A God At The End Of The Story

by

This article contains spoilers from One Piece’s Final Saga.

Summary

  • Buggy’s rise to Godhood is inevitable due to his ability to attract followers in One Piece.
  • Just like Luffy, Buggy has the potential to become a God in the series through his actions.
  • Buggy’s comedic nature and success in tricky situations will lead to him being seen as a deity in the world of One Piece.

In the concluding chapter of “One Piece,” Buggy emerges as a crucial character despite his comical personality and apparent weakness. Frequently overshadowed by others, Buggy’s significance is repeatedly emphasized by Oda, hinting at a grand role he will play in the storyline. In essence, Buggy keeps rising from failures, demonstrating an upward trajectory of importance.

From an obscure pirate roaming the East Blue, I’ve witnessed his transformation into a formidable Shichibukai following the tumultuous Marineford events. Now, it seems he has ascended to the rank of Yonko in the New World. Some may deem this his pinnacle, but I suspect he will continue to push boundaries, potentially elevating himself to a status that could be considered divine within the realm of One Piece.

How Luffy Became A God In One Piece

  • Luffy Ate The Hito Hito no Mi, Model: Nika
  • Nika Is A Godly One Piece Being

In the universe of One Piece, it’s clear that there’s an abundance of divine beings. Figures like Enel who claim divinity and past entities such as Nika are well-known among fans. Moreover, there are other deities including the Forest God, Earth God, and Sea God. Additionally, there are the Celestial Dragons, self-proclaimed gods who consider themselves superior to all others. It’s important to note that the divine beings in One Piece take various forms. With this diversity, it wouldn’t be unexpected if even more gods appeared in the future.

The Five Elders are expressing that the Zoan Devil Fruits possess an independent will, and this particular one embodies the strength of a deity – specifically, the Nika-Nika no Mi model.

In the arc set in Wano Country, Luffy astounded everyone by activating the Hito Hito no Mi, Model: Nika, and achieving a divine status. With his Nika transformation, Luffy transformed into a liberation warrior, powerful enough to engage and defeat even the mighty Kaido in combat. Similar to Luffy, other characters have the potential to ascend to godhood, though through unique paths. Buggy, famously known as the Genius Jester, is undoubtedly one of them.

Buggy’s Rise To Godhood Is Inevitable In One Piece

Buggy Has His Own Cult In The World Of One Piece

In the world of One Piece, it’s not entirely implausible that Buggy could achieve a divine status. While some might think this is due to his awakened Devil Fruit like Luffy, that may not be the whole story. Characters like Buggy and Luffy have a unique ability to draw people towards them, from East Blue to New World. Many already worship Buggy, and in Dressrosa, we saw Usopp rise to godhood without possessing any God Fruit. A similar event could happen with Buggy soon. Despite the fact that he can’t become the Pirate King, Buggy always seems to emerge victorious in the end.

If you become the Pirate King, then I’ll become God itself! — Buggy to Luffy

In the East Blue Saga, when Luffy proclaimed to Buggy his dream of becoming the Pirate King, Buggy jokingly replied that if Luffy achieved this feat, he would essentially become a deity himself. This humorous exchange in Orange Town could potentially hint at events of significant importance down the line.

If Buggy manages to save people during the Final War and make it seem like he’s fighting for a righteous cause, there’s no doubt he will be considered a divine figure among his followers. Even though Buggy may not achieve the coveted One Piece, he is likely to attain something greater – deity status in the world of One Piece.

Currently, people view the Celestial Dragons as divine beings, but eventually, it will become clear that Buggy is seen as a God. Unlike the former, this God will be fair and compassionate, showing concern for others by saving them according to the people’s perspective.

In the grand finale of the “One Piece” series, there’s anticipation about a variety of thrilling occurrences taking place, with many fans eagerly waiting for Buggy’s ascent to deity status among these events.
