## One Piece Chapter 1082, pages 7-8: Let's Go and Claim It!! - Chapter: 1082 - Pages: 7-8 - Characters: Buggy, Crocodile, Dracule Mihawk, Cross Guild, Shanks, Gol D. Roger ### Summary Page 7: In the meeting room, Crocodile outlines Cross Guild's rising influence. Public awareness of Cross Guild is growing as planned, and the Navy is starting to understand the threat they pose. Crocodile says they need unparalleled influence to form their utopia and become a strong military state, but before all that they must establish overwhelming power. Buggy, battered and hanging nearby, protests that this is wrong and not how he wanted his life to go. He questions how they can call themselves pirates with schemes like that. Crocodile says they need an enormous amount of wealth first, but Buggy objects that wealth and power first means doing everything backwards. Mihawk coldly asks what the cockroach just said, while Buggy knows he may pay for speaking up. Page 8: Buggy says Crocodile and Mihawk must have heard that Red Hair Shanks is making his move too. He remembers that they used to be on the Pirate King's crew together, but circumstances prevented them from going to Laugh Tale with the others. In a flashback to twenty-four years ago, the day Gol D. Roger was executed, young Buggy tells Shanks that when he sailed with him, Shanks shone so brightly with potential that Buggy knew he could not measure up and gave up on his own dream. Shanks says he is not ready to go for it yet, but he has changed his mind and will still be a pirate. He invites Buggy to come with him, but Buggy refuses to work under him, calling him an idiot and a coward.
