One Piece: Arkham: Buggy the Clown

Chapter 196 Gang
On the ark.

Several members of the clown gang got together.

Hawkins turned over a card and held it between his fingers.

"Now is the best opportunity."

"The main combat power of the Beasts Pirates has been tied up by Mr. Joker, and Wano Country is still unaware of this."

He turned the card between his fingers a few times, and the front was blank.

"I suggest that we take this opportunity to deploy the bomb."

Hawkins has discovered that if he doesn't exercise some initiative when working with the clown, he can only do some minor work every time.

To be honest, this is very insecure.

Just like the last time the Joker asked them to drive the Ark into the Flame of Our Lady.

Tools that serve only a single purpose are easy to discard.

With ordinary captains, they would talk about bonds and friendships, but the clown would never do that, so one's own role and value are very important.

"This is my idea."

He explained his ideas clearly to his colleagues in front of him.

Hawkins was no longer satisfied with being just a helmsman.

The Joker gang has grown a lot.

Arne, who had followed the Joker at the beginning, went to work with Morganse. On the ship were Jacques, the user of the Ragdoll Fruit from the navy, Swann, the user of the Silence Fruit, Robin, the user of the Flower-Flower Fruit, the mermaid princess Shirahoshi, Jinbe, the former Seven Warlords of the Sea, him, the user of the Scarecrow Fruit, as well as the fish-men and a navy.

It can be said that both functionality and combat effectiveness are not weak.

If it weren't for the fact that the clowns always liked to be alone, they might have been able to ascend to the throne of the Four Emperors.

After all, what they are doing now is to challenge the Four Emperors.

In that case, Hawkins might be able to get the position of the emperor's vice-chairman.

At the beginning, Hawkins was also arrogant and aimed to become the Pirate King, but he was teased by Buggy several times and saw the strength of the admiral and emperor levels.

Hawkins had only one thought left.

The weather is getting cold, and you should put on more clothes, Mr. Clown.

"Master Clown didn't give any instructions, did he?"

"He can't get away at the moment."

With the help of the telescope on the side of the ship, they could clearly see the battle between Buggy and Jhin.

It was like a large fireworks show, with explosions happening continuously.

They can't participate either.

I just wanted to say hello...

"I think it's okay."

Robin put his hands together, his waist was as thin as a willow, a clown mask hung on his slender fingertips, and he smiled lightly.

"That's probably his intention in greeting, to attract Kaido's attention so that the bomb can be dropped smoothly."

"But there must be something else that attracted him."

After so long, Robin has roughly understood the Joker's thought process.

"Besides, we have to do something to let the World Government know...the Joker is not a human being."

The Joker is not the only one who wants to see the World Government make a fool of itself.

Although the target now is Kaido, Robin also wants to express her attitude.

"I agree too. Lord Clown would be looking forward to seeing something like this." Shirahoshi nodded.

"it is good."

Seeing that everyone agreed, Hawkins covered the card on his fingertips and said, "Then our question now is, where should we bomb?"

"Onigashima or Wano Country?"

"According to Caesar, although this bomb is not as powerful as the Flame of the Virgin, once it explodes, at least one town will be destroyed."

This sounds sinful.

Hawkins felt that he could decide by drawing cards, but he still respected his colleague's opinion.

"Can't they all be blown up?"

Shirahoshi was eager to try, as if she remembered what happened on Fishman Island.

"It shouldn't be possible..."

Robin shook his head, but seemed to remember something. His eyes turned and fell on Caesar who was still studying the iron ball a little further away.

He lowered his head and chuckled: "But it's not impossible to try."

……

……

Bucky didn't know that his men were already preparing to give him an extra set of clothes.

Still busy greeting Kaido.

"This is the first time we meet. I wonder if you like my gift."

As he laughed, the flying knife in his hand had already been thrown out, accompanied by a dull sound from the radius.

Compared to the original shaving technique, using gas explosion to accelerate is more ferocious, especially since he also successfully entangled it with armed color domineering.

Three ordinary knives pierced directly into Jhin's mask.

Two of them shattered his mask and then collided with the armament color domineering that covered Jin's face, breaking into pieces.

This thing was just bought casually and rarely kept warm.

But there was one knife with a particularly tricky angle, which pierced directly into Jhin's right eye.

"what!"

The intense pain allowed Jhin to break free from the suppression of the demon's aura, and blood flowed to the corners of his mouth like tears.

At the same time as the knife, Kaido also launched the attack with the mace in his hand - Hachisaijie.

Unlike the dots on Yamato's mace, the eight saikai are all covered with spikes that exude a fierce and bloody smell.

When he looked up high, he could vaguely see purple and white lightning interweaving.

Immediately afterwards, the Eight Precepts came down at an extremely terrifying speed, almost beyond the ability of the human eye to capture.

"Thunder gossip!"

Buggy only saw the flash of purple and white lightning before the swing hit him.

That extremely powerful and domineering aura actually suppressed his ability to transform into elements and break into pieces, and it actually hit his body.

It was smashed down from mid-air like a cannonball and dug deeply into the ground.

He lay very peacefully, his body split into four or five pieces.

The corners of the mouth on the lonely head kept twitching, as if he heard some hilarious joke, and he laughed extremely happily and crazily.

"Only domineering power overrides everything."

Kaido fell from mid-air with Hachisai on his shoulder, not caring at all about the sneak attack he had just taken advantage of.

"Although I do admire your courage, clown."

"The Celestial Dragons are a bunch of idiots, but they are also a hornet's nest."

He took a few steps forward and threw the wine gourd into the pit. He seemed to still be able to sense Bucky's faint breath.

Being able to withstand his Thunder Bagua head-on and still survive, his physique is pretty good, plus the strength he showed earlier...

"Where's that guy Caesar?"

He squatted down and looked at the bottom of the pit.

"The poisonous mist that can target artificial devil fruit users cannot be separated from that guy."

"I'll give you a choice."

"Hand over Caesar, and work with him to create a new group of people with special abilities, and then I may be able to let bygones be bygones."

Seeing that the clown's breath was particularly weak, Jhin folded his wings and landed, then raised his hand and pulled out the knife that was stuck in his eyeball.

Blood splattered.

After hearing Kaido's words, he didn't say anything.

This is a very real problem.

Except for the Flying Six stationed in various places in Wano Country, the Beasts Pirates' middle-level Gifters were almost all wiped out, and the top management also lost two big bosses, which made Kaido much further away from his wish to establish a pirate empire.

If the Joker could be recruited to join, the Beasts Pirates would not only be able to directly fill in the missing parts, but also be strengthened.

The only thing to consider is the possible desperate attitude of the world government.

The Joker is really good at attracting hatred.

Before, it was simply because they had no fixed territory or fixed routes, they were just flying around in the sky and could not be targeted at all.

But joining the Beasts Pirates is different.
"How's it going? Are you interested?"

"Join me."

Kaido laughed heartily. He wanted to recruit the clown by attacking him. He had this idea at first, but later, when he saw that the clown was getting stronger and stronger, he temporarily gave up.

I didn't expect the clown to come to me himself.

It’s a pity that Jack died too quickly and I didn’t have time to save him.

"You also want to do great things, but you can't do great things alone." "Only by following my team can you achieve great things."

The bottom of the pit where the Thunder Bagua had struck was deep and dark.

The clown's body broke into several pieces, not split, but was really broken into pieces, with blood flowing out.

But above the cut of flesh and blood, a black flame was faintly burning.

“Hahaha..ha..ha.ha.”

Bucky's laughter was still crazy, and there were tears in the corners of his eyes.

"Doing something big?"

He licked his lips.

"I almost forgot that I have a gang."

In the spirit world, the demon clown was hung up.

Countless clowns climbed on the clown, opened their mouths, and nibbled on him with smiles on their faces.

"If you eat too much, you always need to move around to digest it."

After swallowing the goat-horned demon, the demon clown had some idea of ​​his fate.

But I didn't expect this day to come so soon.

"You will die, devil. You will be eaten by the devil and die!"

He was hung by a light blue gas lasso, and the demon clown spoke in a choking manner.

Bucky has teased him many times, and the evil clown has long lost any ability to fight back.

"It sounds like you know a little secret."

"Is it something I can know?"

A clown with goat horns pressed against the devil clown's forehead, holding a small knife in his hand, and cut pieces of blood like fruit pulp on the devil clown's face.

"uh-huh?"

The knife was placed against the devil clown's cheek, and it was thrust in suddenly, cutting out a large piece.

"what!!"

The devil clown kept screaming in pain, all his will was completely melted away by such torture.

But the clown didn't stop at all.

It seemed that he had no intention of stopping until he had squeezed the devil clown clean.

Completely digesting the Shattered Fruit has always been one of his small goals.

Although everyone gets along well.

But after all, it’s not just one person.

"It's okay if you don't want to talk about it. It's just that I'm a little uncomfortable with it. I'm not used to having a living demon in my body."

"Don't worry, it'll be quick."

The demonic clown was quickly reduced to a skeleton, but the clown in the spiritual world still showed no intention of stopping.

"Hahahahahaha!"

In reality, the black flames burning on Buggy's body grew stronger and stronger, and he had begun to grow again.

The ability of Gas and the ability of Split into Pieces no longer exist separately, but are truly integrated.

"My little gang doesn't seem to let me down."

"The mermaid princess?"

Kaido became very weird when he heard Buggy's heartbeat.

Sometimes it was beating violently, and sometimes there was no sound at all, and the aura on its body was also very strange.

"interesting."

He stood up, and his eight precepts revealed sharp spikes.

The aura captured by the Observation Haki was eerie.

Kaido was already considering whether to add another blow.

But before he could do anything, the moonlight was suddenly blocked by a large shadow.

Look up.

A huge iron ball surrounded by white mist filled the night sky.

At the Renbu Port in Wano Country.

A ship without a flag was anchored in the harbor.

The agent in a white suit suddenly turned around.

"Is that the thing?"

Renbu Port is located in the inland sea of ​​Wano Country, not far from Onigashima.

They can also see the huge iron ball here.

The mask worn by the person who spoke first had several marks of stitches.

"Yes."

“This is what adults are most worried about.”

The agent who answered the phone was wearing a white mask painted with an inverted U-shaped paint, and his hairstyle was tied up like a tribal chief.

"Well, the Joker has found a way to activate the Virgin Flame. The backup plan needs to be activated in advance. Ha, maybe I should take care of the research institute."

The Holy Mother of Fire itself was restored by Vegapunk, and now the Joker can use it, maybe there is a connection
"But is this how this weapon strikes?"

“It’s a little different from what I saw during the live broadcast.”

The big iron ball did not emit terrifying lasers like it did at the clown. Instead, it suddenly opened its mouth and a dozen smaller iron balls fell out.

Three of them fell on Onigashima, and the rest were scattered around Wano Country and the surrounding waters.

"Last time it was also an experiment, the Holy Mother's Flame. Is this what the Holy Mother meant?"

The two agents looked skeptical.

One of the small iron balls fell on the sea between Onigashima and Renbu Port.

Immediately afterwards, a short flash of red light was seen on the small iron ball.

In about half a second, the iron ball exploded.

It was not a flame, but a violent laser that exploded after being continuously compressed.

Under the sea surface, a large area of ​​sea water was evaporated in vain, and the water continued to spread out.

A piece of Ghost Island was also swallowed up by this laser.

The sea water kept surging, sweeping up from the near sea, and in an instant the waves were more than ten meters high.

"Quick, abandon ship!"

"The explosion caused a tsunami!"

The two agents abandoned the government personnel on the ship without hesitation and ran towards the port.

In a short while, the waves had swallowed up all the ships outside the harbor.

"This is your backup plan?"

An iron ball also fell next to Kaido.

Kaido's hands suddenly froze.

The aftershocks on Ghost Island continued.

Now there is a problem.

Do all the small iron balls have the same power?

What is the principle of detonation?
If all of them exploded like the one just now,
How many just came?

Twelve or thirteen?
The entire Wano Country will be blown to the sky!

"Like it?"

"Hahahahaha!"

Bucky crawled upwards from the bottom of the pit for a while, and just then his head popped out.

"You're right. One person can't accomplish anything great."

"But luckily I have a little gang too."

"Yeah." He tilted his head, and his shattered body was repaired by the black flame and grew back into a complete body.

“Although the scale is still small now, it has unlimited potential.”

"Go for aggressive expansion!"

"So, are you interested in joining our group?"

"We can do something big together."

"Or I could give this to you."

Buggy took out a switch from his body that was very familiar to the people of the Lulucia Kingdom.

"Onigashima, or Wano Country?"

"choose one?"
