One Piece: Arkham: Buggy the Clown

Chapter 189 I heard you guys are a sucker for this?

The country of peace.

The capital of flowers.

The houses with green tiles and wooden beams are surrounded by a huge cherry tree in the shape of a full moon. The pink and white petals on the tree gather into the shape of clouds, as if it is the bright moon falling on the earth.

The Great Snake Castle sits in the bright moon, connected to the hills below.

"Guhehehe, I really wasn't wrong about you."

Kurozumi Orochi sat cross-legged. He had a burly figure, and the prostitute in his arms was held by him with one hand, but his limbs and body were developed in parallel, making him look like an enlarged version of a pentagon.

His head was like a bronze bell, with a purple bun on one side and a crown on the other.

There was a wine red color on his rough, dark face.

His mouth was wide open.

"Kankuro, you did a great job this time!"

"After we get rid of the kid from the Kozuki family, those warriors will no longer have the right to attack us!"

"Yes, that's exactly what I think."

Kanjuro knelt on one knee, with Momonosuke tied up in a ball on his left.

Although his mouth was sealed, his eyes were still glaring angrily.

Very angry at Kanjuro's betrayal.

The pain coming from all over his body made him cry uncontrollably.

It was a disgrace to a samurai to cry in front of this traitor, but he couldn't help it.

However, Kurozumi Orochi's next words made him feel cold all over again.

"Then cook it, just like his father, hehe."

Kurozumi Orochi laughed happily.

I don't know how many times I have been proud of this chess piece I placed decades ago.

That fool Oden actually thought the other party was a retainer.

The last time he received the news that Kanjuro and others had traveled through time, he was really shocked.

I didn't expect that they could actually travel to twenty years later.

I didn't expect that I could get rid of this worry so quickly.

The only strange thing is that I don't seem to have given Kanjuro an order to arrest him...

who cares!
Kurozumi Orochi did not hide the smile on his face and even filled his glass again.

"Guhehehe, his idiotic father actually believed in the prophecy of twenty years later. He is so stupid!"

"Kozuki Family, my revenge will not stop hahaha!"

boom--

On one side of the palace, the shamisen in the hand of the leading prostitute suddenly broke, and the sound of the zither stopped abruptly.

"What's wrong, Xiao Zi?"

The beautiful courtesan wearing a pink hair accessory suddenly bent down, her face turning pale.

"Sorry, I'm not feeling well today."

Xiao Zi said sorry, but her tone was not gentle at all, and even contained contempt.

"You can't do this, Xiao Zi, you have to get used to it, you have to get used to it!"

The big snake showed a greedy look and took the opportunity to move closer.

He just likes tsundere.

I thought Xiao Zi was just scared when she heard that the little ghost was going to be cooked.

"I will do it later."

Xiao Zi said this indifferently, then turned sideways very obscurely, keeping a step between herself and the lustful general.

But his eyes couldn't help but look at the little kid next to Kanjuro.

"Also, Lord Orochi, I met someone this time."

Kanjuro was used to Orochi's little antics.

He is a man of both wine and women, cruelty and arrogance are his nature.

Twenty years have passed, and nothing has changed.

"Who?"

"Don't mention anything unimportant."

The black charcoal snake waved his hand nonchalantly and moved closer to Xiao Zi.

The most beautiful woman in Wano Country...

Hmm, smells good!

Now that Quinn is dead, there is no one left to compete with me for Xiao Zi.

There was a hint of brutality hidden in Kurozumi Orochi's infatuated eyes.

This woman seduced a samurai from somewhere, and every time he sent people to rob her, they would be beaten back by the samurai.

And there's that idiot Quinn fighting for it.

Otherwise, this most beautiful woman would have been kept in captivity by Lord Heitan long ago.

Isn't that what prostitutes do? Why are you pretending to be so noble?
"Do you want me to check you out, Xiao Zi?"

Although he thought so in his mind, Kurozumi Orochi still looked intoxicated, and even pushed away the two prostitutes who had just stuck to him.

"Thank you, sir, but that's not necessary."

Xiao Zi bowed slightly, striking a good balance between disrespect and respect.

Her indifference was all acted out, to protect herself but also to hit the sore spot in the hearts of people like Kurozumi Orochi.

But we can't really take it lightly.

Otherwise you're courting death.

Only by grasping this standard can one become an otaku who moves among high-ranking officials and nobles.

"It's the Joker."

"What a little clown."

The big snake waved his hands, nonchalant.

It took a while to react.

"clown!"

"The one with the 2 billion bounty?"

Under his leadership, Wano Country pursued a policy of isolation and had almost no contact with the outside world. Even going out to sea was considered a very serious crime.

Therefore, the information here about Kurozumi Orochi is particularly delayed.

"The current bounty on this person is 3.96 billion berries," Kanjuro said with his head down.

"Fu Lu Shou!"

Da She suddenly turned his head and, ignoring Xiao Zi's resistance, looked at the old man sitting on the other side of his seat.

Fu Lu Shou is his confidant.

He has a bald head, long skull and earlobes, and likes to wear sunglasses indoors.

"What's Kaido's bounty?"

The number of 3.9 billion scared him a little.

A bounty order can largely reflect the threat level of a pirate, and is also regarded by the pirates themselves as a measure of their strength.

"Four thousand six hundred and eleven million Baileys."

Fu Lu Shou took out the yellowed bounty order with familiarity.

"That is not bad."

"What does he want from you?"

"He just asked me to tell you to keep an eye out for the new Onigashima project."

Kanjuro concealed the fact that he was frightened by the clown, and simply said that the clown asked him to convey a message.

"New Onigashima Project?"

The snake muttered a few words nonchalantly.

"What does this have to do with him, the clown?"

"Come on, let's play music and dance!"

A gleam of brilliance flashed across Kurozumi Orochi's drunken eyes, and then he acted nonchalantly, pulling Kanjuro, the hero, to drink and dance.

……

……

The Kingdom of Lulucia.

Kin'emon has caught up with the navy that had previously surrounded him.

At this time, the night had faded and the sky was turning pale.

The light shines obliquely, and the field of vision is not restricted.

Momonosuke was indeed tied up by the navy, frowning and silent.

This kid is just as old-fashioned as Kin'emon, even more stubborn.

They must hit the target with one strike, otherwise they will be in a threatened situation like last time when Oden led them to fight Kaido.

They have too many people to take care of, ordinary people and young masters.

I am threatened like this every time.

Kin'emon also secretly hated himself for not settling the young master and the others down before setting out to attack Kaido.

But that was because Oden had been dancing naked for five years before he realized that he was completely fooled by Kaido and Orochi.

They promised Lord Oden that they would release 100 hostages as long as they danced naked in the city once a week, and that they would build a ship for everyone to leave after five years.

It’s so hateful that they actually waited for five years before realizing they were cheated!

It was with this kind of indignant mood that he attacked Kaido directly.

Kin'emon felt that he would not make this mistake again, but the young master could not afford to make any mistakes, so he did not care what was happening with Kanjuro!

He hid on the roof, waiting for the navy to pass by, then he drew out his two swords and slammed them down from the sky.

"Fox Fire Flow·Fire Willow Flash!" Orange-red flames suddenly appeared on the swords of Zucan and Jiaocan, and a heat wave suddenly came over.

"There's an attack!"

"It's that samurai!"

"Keep an eye on the hostages!"

The sword light and flames came and went quickly.

Kin'emon did not attack anyone, but suddenly broke the shackles on Momonosuke, then grabbed the man's hair and ran away.

He is not crazy yet. The most important thing is to take the young master to find allies. There is no point in getting entangled with the navy.

It was just that it was difficult for him to hide under the navy's fire suppression.

"Sure enough, even dogs won't eat the Flame-Flame Fruit."

On the clock tower, Buggy couldn't help but complain when looking at Kin'emon's Fox Fire Style.

It seems that when it comes to the Wano Country chapter, the per capita moves have become popular...

"But the Drawing Fruit is so useful. I should have asked Kanjuro to draw a few more bodies for me, otherwise there wouldn't be enough for everyone."

He tilted his head and felt that it was almost done, so he simply put his left foot on top of his right foot and walked towards Kin'emon's direction.

"How can you say it's just a joke... I've been planning this very carefully. Oh, ha ha ha, I think I can understand the feelings of those sneaky conspirators hiding in the castle."

Bucky was talking to himself, not knowing who he was talking to.

Kin'emon felt like he was caught in a cycle.

This cycle is like this: I always have to face the arrests again and again. Have I really gotten rid of them? Or is it that the other party has too many spies?
In order to avoid a repeat of last night's situation, he grabbed Momonosuke's hair and ran away.

Until a figure blocked his way.

"hello."

The figure waved his hand, and the sunlight shone behind him, but he felt a chill for no reason.

"You've run far enough. You can take a break."

"Relax, I'm not in the same group with them."

The clown looked very familiar.

"I just want to say...well, haven't you taken a close look at this young master?"

Kin'emon frowned when he heard this, and his eyes squeezed together.

He picked up Momonosuke.

I didn't notice it just now, but Momonosuke has... a bomb tied to his chest?!

"mean!"

"Why do you want to attack a child?"

Kin'emon felt a familiar feeling.

He did not ask why the other party came.

Their enemies, apart from the navy they had just provoked, were Orochi and Kaido.

They must have paid someone to hunt down and kill people.

No wonder I'm always being hunted!
"Don't get me wrong. I just heard that you guys really like this, so I'm trying it out."

"How about it, do you find it interesting?"

Well, threatening the samurai with a painted dummy.

Bucky felt like a bad guy.

But he's a criminal, so...

Despicable is a neutral word to him, and is put together with justice.

"asshole!"

"You actually used a child to threaten me!"

When Kin'emon heard the word "Young Master", he became even more certain that the other party was sent by Orochi, otherwise how could he know so much?

There is a lack of information in Wano Country, and because of his time travel, Kin'emon knows very little about the clown in front of him.

Unlike Kanjuro, he didn't care much about the pirates outside.

Hearing what the other party said, he became even more furious.

But Kin'emon really fell for it!
He doesn't dare to gamble!

Damn it!
"what do you want?"

“Ah, I remember a lot of people asking me this question.”

Bucky tapped his chin, looking a little distressed.

“Do you have to pursue something before you can do anything?”

"I never have a plan."

He really sees himself that way, the plan was from another personality and has nothing to do with the current Joker.

After thinking for a while, Bucky smiled a little again, scratched his hair, and the corners of his mouth twitched slightly.

Then he said in a very calm tone:

"You should kill yourself."

He raised an eyebrow. "For the safety of the young master, the warrior risked his life. This should be worthy of a chapter in the storybook."

Kin'emon froze.

He looked down at the young master who seemed to be in a coma. The bomb on his chest was stuck tightly and hidden inside his clothes.

In addition, the situation was urgent and Kin'emon was so focused on getting on with his journey that he didn't notice this at all.

"Maybe we can take a gamble."

Bucky looked at him teasingly, as if he saw a fun toy.

"How about we make a bet... who can blow it up faster, me or you?"

Kanjuro probably never imagined that a painting could be so entertaining.

Otherwise, the Kozuki family would have been destroyed long ago, and there would be no need for him to play the role of a retainer.

"Where's Kanjuro?"

"At least you have to make sure that the young master dismantles the bomb and hands it over to him before I can agree to your terms."

Kin'emon has learned his lesson.

The boss made two bets with others and was fooled both times. He needs to learn from the lesson.

At least give me proof!
Looking at Kin'emon's serious expression, Buggy couldn't help laughing.

“Puchi…hahahaha…”

"Are you really planning to commit suicide?"

"Interesting, interesting!"

"But I changed my mind."

"Let's try another approach."

Kanjuro asked before how to use the physical entity transformed from the painting?

Bucky thought about it briefly.

Then he urged Kin'emon to wake up Momonosuke.

"Why not let him make the choice?"

In the painting, after Momonosuke woke up, his eyes first fell on Buggy, and then turned to him, with a somewhat dull expression.

However, our young master already has psychological trauma, so it is normal for him to be a little weird.

Kin'emon didn't doubt it much.

"You come and kill him."

"And then let you go."

A small knife was grasped in the hand of Momonosuke in the painting, and the order was successfully conveyed.

"Little Lord…"

Kin'emon was just about to remind Momonosuke to make a promise first, but he saw Momonosuke take the knife and suddenly stab himself.

There seems to be no emotion in his eyes?
The warrior felt a sharp pain in his chest, and the scene of the head of the family lifting them up alone in the oil pan flashed through his mind again.

It turns out to be so painful...

The master of the family saved my life, so I will repay him with my own life.

Momonosuke was about to stab again.

But in vain he was held down by the clown.

"Forget it... Samurai are still too dull."

The clown who was smiling just now turned very cold in the blink of an eye.

A boring toy?

Kin'emon read this meaning in the other person's eyes.

He couldn't even tell whether the other person's smile was real or fake.

Whether it was the words that asked him to commit suicide or the knife that Momonosuke stabbed at him, for Kin'emon, they were all filled with sadness.

No fear.

Instead, it was Bucky's sudden change in expression that made him feel frightened.

purpose?

motivation?

means?

The other party seemed to be very familiar with him, but he knew nothing about this clown.

Kin'emon fell to his knees, feeling as if air was leaking from his chest.

He saw... The clown tapped Momonosuke on the head, and he turned into pieces and scattered.

Then lower your head.

"Collect 288 fragments to exchange for a complete imp."

"Are you interested in trying it?"
