The Marines were just involved in Egghead. What have Cross Guild done since their formation? Bully Buggy and have T-Bone assassinated?
Cross guild isn’t allowed to do anything.
if they do something then the gag is no longer a gag.
The gag is that Buggy FAILS upwards. He gets what he wants UNINTENTIONALLY… Buggy never actually has a successful plan, if he did then it wouldn’t be funny anymore. Then buggy would become a competent mastermind. But he’s not. He a buffoon who gets lucky
So Cross Guild will NOT actually reach Laugh take through Buggy’s actual plans or then actually fighting anyone for poneglyphs or whatever… If they did any of this then they are no longer a gag organization. Then they would immediately turn into an actual serious organization. In fact since it’s just Three people, this would automatically make them the most impressive organization in the verse for having reached Laugh tale with just 3 people in like 2 months… That’s ridiculous
So none of that will happen. Cross Guild cannot actually be competent because they competence would mess with the gag that Buggy achieves everything by dumb luck. And yes, this means Crocodile and Mihawk will follow in Buggy’s gag. There will be no master plan from Crocodile that gets them to Laugh tale. Mihawk will not fight anyone to get poneglyphs. No, Buggy is going to get Cross Guild to Laugh tale purely on Gag power incompetence and dumb luck.
