In One Piece chapter 1053, readers were shocked by the news that Buggy became the New Yonkou, even though Kid and Law are more suitable to be the new Yonkou because they have defeated Big Mom. But why even Buggy? Though he didn't do anything, and he didn't even show up at Onigashima either.

This is likely due to his Bara Bara no Mi ability. With it, Buggy is able to cut himself into multiple pieces without getting hurt at all. This makes him immune from various attacks inflicted by sharp weapons such as swords and spears, even Mihawk couldn't kill him.

A reader talked about the Bara Bara no Mi devil fruit theory which could be very dangerous. Just like Doflamingo or Katakuri, users of Paramecia abilities can use awakenings that affect their surroundings. This reader believes that Buggy's awakening can dismember objects around him, even those the size of an island.

If it's only because of his reputation, that wouldn't be enough to make Buggy a Yonkou. Buggy is indeed a former Roger’s crew and a friend of Shanks - who is also a fellow Yonkou.But, it takes more than that to make him to be recognized as a Yonkou. Buggy has an influence in the underworld and he also has many subordinates. This could be one of the reasons.

Another reason might be that the Marines or the World Government find out if Buggy has mastered this awakening ability and he can use it at any time. Because of that, he was announced as the new Yonkou. Indirectly, this is a warning to other pirates who want to deal with him.

Another theory states that Buggy is able to split atoms with his awakening. If this is true, then Buggy could cause a nuclear explosion. It's also possible that the World Government is thinking about something like this. In Impel Down, Buggy demonstrated one of his techniques, namely the Buggy Ball that caused an explosion. It won't be strange if Buggy developed that ability.

Although the nuclear that is described here may be a way different from the real-life counterpart, it is possible that Buggy can do the things mentioned above. Plus, Buggy is Oda's favorite character, and it could be that Oda gave a plot twist to Buggy that could surprise fans.

Have you thought about why Buggy's poster has the nickname "Bombastic Clown" in the new poster? Probably because the World Government and the Marines have already realized his capabilities. As mentioned above, bombastic can be related to awakening that can create a big explosion.

From a comedic character then turned into a Yonkou? There are still mysteries that we may not know about Buggy. Just wait until Oda reveals the real reason why Buggy can become a Yonkou. Do you think the above theory makes sense? Write your opinion in the comment section down below!
