Character Discussion Buggy deserved Roger’s hat more than Saint Shanks

#2
Buggy is far weaker than Saint Shanks and yet still managed to become a yonko, with arguably a stronger crew since he has Mihawk on his side who is hyped above Saint Shanks.

All this proves that if Roger didn’t give Saint Shanks so much special treatment but instead focused on Buggy, Buggy would have been pirate king by now.
Rare W :datas:
Buggy has the potential to be the Pirate God with has luck and charisma

Buggy literally rise to power due to:

- His past in Roger pirates.
- His relationship with Saint Shanks.
- Him escaping from prison because Luffy freeing him then Teach removing the Magellan's poison barricade and other prisoners thought Buggy did it.
- Then Teach and his men hypnotized Marines to open the gates of Justice and Buggy's men thought Buggy did it and they start to follow him.
- WB played a trick on him acting like they were equals because he didn't want to deal with Buggy's men during the battle vs Marines. Buggy's men were impressed by it.



Since when has Mihawk had more hype than Saint Shanks?
Since Kid always wanted to take Mihawk down and allied himself with others to do it.



Wait, that was Saint Shanks.

Rayleigh trained Buggy and Saint Shanks.... Roger did not focus on Saint Shanks... Where did you get that idea?

Roger gave his hat to the one he knew would pass the hat down to another, and that damn sure wasn't Buggy who was going to pass the hat down to another. He was too self centered and greedy.

Even though Roger focused on both Saint Shanks and Buggy, Buggy consumed his Devil Fruit power very early on, and his ability is far from being one of the strongest. After these issues, there is the question that, up to this point, Buggy is not a user of Conqueror's Haki, so he does not possess a broken Devil Fruit, nor does he have the most broken Haki in the series. There is a limit to how far someone can go with only the ability to enhance both Armament Haki and Observation Haki to the maximum, especially when having a subpar Devil Fruit that, at best, can be considered mid.

So don't pretend that Buggy has potential; he has already failed by not possessing Conqueror's Haki.
