One Piece: Arkham: Buggy the Clown

Chapter 201 Kyoshiro is not, Denjiro is
The tense atmosphere in Orochi Castle temporarily relaxed as the relationship between Orochi and Kaido eased.

But there is something more important to do.

Following Orochi's instructions, several teams of warriors set up oil pans in the square in front of the city gate.

The sun gradually set and the firewood under the oil pan was lit.

The news that the bloodline of the Kozuki family was to be boiled in a cauldron has spread throughout the city.

As one of the retainers of the Kozuki family, Kanjuro felt that he should also show some sadness, so he used a brush dipped in ink to draw a crying face at the corners of his mouth.

“This is an ugly sight.”

The person who could stand next to Kanjuro and comment freely was a man with a blue crew cut and narrow eyes.

"But these are the sorrows that a retainer should show. Yes, we should also be prepared to be resolute, so that we can use them when we meet our former companions later."

Kanjuro was still immersed in the role he was playing, and would take out a round mirror to look at himself from time to time.

"It's better to prepare more." Kyoshiro said with a smile, "Otherwise it might be too late later."

"is it?"

Kanjuro tilted his head, as if trying to read something on the face of the man in front of him.

There is a familiar feeling, as if the other person is also acting.

What role do you play?
"But it does make sense. After all, I just saw that gentleman, which made me even more frightened."

The sadness on Kanjuro's face was unfaithful.

Look, what do you see?
The world's most vicious criminal - Mr. Joker.

This is not something Kanjuro said bragging, it was decided by the World Government. They have now even forgotten about the Revolutionary Army and are only focused on killing the Joker.

"This man is dangerous."

Kyoshiro didn't know much about the clown. He just saw him quietly adding firewood to the cauldron, glancing up at the sky from time to time, as if he couldn't wait to see the sun set.

If Yamato hadn't been there, the Joker would have been captured as an enemy long ago.

However, based on his intuition, Kyoshiro could also smell an extremely dangerous smell on the clown.

Coupled with Kaido's attitude, it is almost certain that he is a strong man comparable to the Four Emperors.

Thinking of the clown's evil taste, Kanjuro nodded, "You never want to become his target."

"Is it almost time?"

Fukurokuju walked out of the city with his hands kicked, followed by a prison van, inside which was Momonosuke with a terrified look on his face.

He saw that bubbles were already coming out of the oil pan.

"No, no, I don't want to die like this. I'm so scared!"

He fell into the prison van, his hands and feet shaking.

Behind the prisoner car, Da She sat on a sedan chair carried by four people. He lifted the curtain and looked out, looking unhappy:

“Why are there so few people coming?”

"According to Kaido's conditions, the remnants of the Kozuki family must be completely killed in front of the witnesses of the entire city, so that they will completely give up!"

"Fu Lu Shou, find a way to get those civilians to come out and see. Why haven't they gotten used to this kind of scene yet?"

Although Kaido was extremely powerful when he arrived, he was not that tough when he actually talked about it.

Nor did he force Orochi to give up his position as general.

All he asked for was that the remnants of the Kozuki family be boiled in a cauldron in front of the witnesses of the entire city.

There are quite a lot of requirements for witnessing.

Fortunately, it’s nothing to the big snake.

"You are just scaring yourself. Kaido wants to put his Onigashima in Wano Country. Isn't he trying to steal my territory?"

"The Flower Capital is still mine, that's all."

"The World Government is such a wimp. They just run away when they see some clown!"

"And what's the point of talking about revenge for that damn prophet who died!"

Looking at Momonosuke shivering in the prison car, Orochi's eyes flashed with satisfaction again.

It's this kind of person that has made me so worried for so long.

The sun had set a little lower, and the side sunlight was still quite warm.

Or it could be the fire in front of you.

Bucky stood up and took two steps back.

He scanned the crowd, trying to see if there were one or two familiar faces.

Except for Sasaki who had been arrested long ago, the rest of the Flying Six, including Fuzzy, X Drake, Black Maria, Runti, and Page One, were all present.

A large number of civilians were urged by the Beasts Pirates and Orochi's samurai to gather around.

They seem to be just ordinary people.
"You'd better not let me down, that wouldn't be fun."

This was the first time he had seen the scene of being boiled in a cauldron.

Bucky tilted his head absentmindedly.

But the effect was quite good. He saw deep fear on the faces of the onlookers and Momonosuke.

Was it like this twenty years ago?
Bucky had an inexplicable look on his face, as if he was thinking about something.

The expectation seems to be not satisfied.

It’s not fun enough. It would be nice if we could do a live broadcast.

Unfortunately, Vincent Mock's people chose Big Mom's marriage. Although they entered the New World, they did not come to the Land of Wano, but went to the Land of Ten Thousand Nations.

This is consistent with the original plot.

I heard that the remnants of the Straw Hat Pirates, who were working hard to earn money to pay off their debts, were attacked twice.

After waiting for a while, he saw Kaido walking out in the form of a human-beast, with a body like a little giant, covered with green scales, and his palms clenched.

He is still maintaining the flame cloud.

It seems like it’s not ready to let Onigashima down yet.

Kaido glanced at Buggy, as if he wanted to see what other tricks he had.

Seeing no reaction from the clown, he waved his hand.

"Put it in the pot."

Momonosuke had already been captured by two members of the Beasts Pirates.

After hearing Kaido's words, he struggled and screamed desperately.

"No! I don't want to go down! Let me go!!"

The big snake likes to see this panic posture, which brings him a different kind of satisfaction.

During his twenty years of rule, he had also imposed the punishment of boiling in a cauldron on some rebels, but none of them was as satisfying as the one he gave to the little devil from the Kozuki family.

It was as if the shadow hanging over our heads was about to be dispelled.

He smiled with his arm resting on his shoulders, with Fu Lu Shou and Fu Zi Fu on either side of him.

"Throw him in!"

"Okay." Kaido suddenly showed a sinister smile on his face, "Throw him in."

Beside the big snake, Fozfort made a move. His bright red suit blended into the sunset, creating a dazzling illusion.

He stomped his feet and suddenly appeared behind the big snake, revealing a scornful smile under his red mask.

He raised his hand, pulled out a dagger from the scabbard of the pink long sword, and swung it sharply along the back of the snake's neck.

Blood splattered out.

There was still a smile on the big snake's face, and his mustache was lifted up.

But the head suddenly split apart.

But Foz Fo has more to do than that.

He took the opportunity to kick the head.

The big snake's eyes suddenly felt dizzy, and with a plop, it fell directly into the boiling oil pan.

"what!!!"

The rest of the snake's body was dancing, but its head, which had fallen into the frying pan, was bubbling with dense bubbles due to the high temperature. Its skin shrank in the blink of an eye, and then a meaty aroma emerged.

"Your Highness the Great Snake!" Things happened so fast that Fu Lu Shou and the others didn't have time to react. They stared with their eyes wide open, but no one dared to fish the head out of the frying pan.

"Lord Kaido, what are you doing?!"

"Aren't we going to cook that brat?"

"General Orochi is dead!!"

"Good death, Lord Kaido is mighty!"

The sudden change caused the people who were originally reluctant to watch to start talking a lot, and the crowd suddenly became crowded.

The past twenty years of Orochi's rule can be said to be filled with blood and oppression, yet most of the voices in the crowd were cheering.

"Throw that in, too."

Kaido didn't look surprised, as this was part of his plan.

Orochi wants to completely kill the Kozuki family in front of the people, while Kaido wants to completely kill the concept of Wano Country.

A delicacy cooked by two generations of generals.

"Help...help!"

Momonosuke struggled even harder. The snake's head was still floating up and down in the frying pan, and its dead fish-like eyes seemed to beckon him.

Nothing could inspire more fear in him.

“Let me go…let me go!!”

"Compared to that guy, he is too bad." Kaido shook his head and said, "Don't waste time, we still have a lot of things to do."

He always felt that the clown's arrangement was not that simple... The kid from the Kozuki family was here, but where were his retainers?
The two pirates wearing animal skins did not hesitate to hear this and directly picked up Momonosuke's hair and threw him into the oil pan.

When Momonosuke jumped into the oil pan, a loud roar was heard at the same time.

"Do it!"

"What are you waiting for, Denjiro!"

Kin'emon descended from the sky, and his Foxfire Two Swords Style instantly shattered the terrifying oil pan. As the flames swirled, a cloud of smoke filled the air.

Although Kin'emon was anxious, he was not completely stupid. When he saw Kaido gathered so many people to watch, he immediately came up with a plan to fish in troubled waters.

But this is the New World, and there are many people who possess dual-color domineering power.

After Kin'emon smashed the oil pan with his double swords, Foz F suddenly rushed to him.

"Lanjiao!"

"Fox Fire Style, Flame Splitting Slash!"

The white air slash and the slash with blinding flames collided at the same time, and a loud clang was heard.

Kin'emon slashed with his sword just when his old strength had just gone and new strength had not yet been generated.

But suddenly he found that the breath of Foz F, who had just jumped into the air, became very strong.

He didn't have time to think, and instinctively used his two swords to block in front of him.

There was a crash.

A pair of sharp claws stretched out from in front of him, but were blocked by the two swords, causing sparks to fly.

"Samurai... sizzle sizzle"

Foz F stuck close to Kin'emon, not trying to hide the contemptuous smile on his face.

"The subordinates of an idiot are also idiots."

He sneered and instantly maxed out the anger value of the warrior in front of him.

Kin'emon pressed hard with both swords and stepped on the ground with both feet at the same time.

It looked like an attack, but in fact, it was taking advantage of the force of Foz F's resistance to suddenly bounce into the air, creating a distance of about tens of meters.

At this time, the thick fog created by the smoke bomb had dissipated, and the broken oil pan spilled a little, but there was nothing left.

Kin'emon wiped the blade of his sword on the boiling oil and water, then moved the sword forward.

"Fox Fire Flow: Flash of Fire Willow."

His feet slammed down on the floor with a thud, and Kin'emon rushed towards Foz Fou angrily, his figure seemingly turning into a line of fire.

"Young Master will definitely...take back this country!"

When a ray of fire was approaching the opponent, the flaming samurai sword suddenly spun and a circle of fire appeared.

From the moment he landed, Kin'emon was ready to die, as long as Denjiro could take this opportunity to take the young master away!
This was Kin'emon's idea.

The ring of fire swept away the last of the smoke.

The situation in the square became clear again.

Kaido stood in front of the broken oil pan, stretched out a hand with a piece of paper in it.

On the side of the wok, under the Great Snake's procession, a dancing body was running wildly with its cooked head in its arms, followed closely by the Great Snake's guards.

"It was you who got this kid arrested, right?"

Kaido snapped his fingers, and the paper man shattered and fell into the fire, starting to burn.

His eyes were never on the samurai Kin'emon, but on the clown who had been fanning the flames and looking like he was watching a show from the very beginning.

"That's why I said you're not fun..."

Buggy did not rush to answer Kaido's question, but turned to complain to Kin'emon.

This guy is so boring.

“But the word ‘handsomeness’ is a bit of a compliment to me.

I just tell them the right facts at the right time, and they will make their choice naturally.”

"If you really want to choose a little devil as the savior, I have a suggestion. How about choosing a clown?"

Bucky glanced sideways.

There was another person standing next to him.

"Kyoshiro... this guy is not considered a retainer."

"Kyoshiro is not, Denjiro is."

Kyoshiro, or Denjiro to be more precise, was holding Momonosuke's collar, his eyes as slender as willow leaves.

"What are you doing, Denjiro!"

"This is betrayal!"

Kin'emon, who was still fighting with Foz-Fo, had a look of horror on his face.

How could Denjiro, who had made good contact with them, stand next to the clown? !
"What are you doing..." Denjiro's mouth was curved like a crescent moon, which was his way of hiding his expression, "I have never betrayed the Kozuki family."

"I just... don't see any hope!"

Denjiro grabbed Momonosuke and let his sad face be seen by everyone.

"Why?"

"How are we going to win this war? With this brat, or with you, the leader of the Nine Heroes who even Kaido's Flying Six can't defeat?"

He chuckled twice again, and his questioning voice was very calm, but it sounded like he was stating a fact.

He has seen the assistance Kin'emon asked for, compared to Kaido's subordinates...

"Twenty years is but a blink of an eye to you, but it is day and night to us!"

"Do you know what I saw?"

Denjiro could hardly control his expression, and the corners of his mouth wanted to turn sad several times.

"Our strength is getting weaker and weaker. All those who dared to resist were killed. Even the teaching of swordsmanship was banned. Only we, the remnants, are left to survive!"

"We have been waiting for the turning point that Lord Oden mentioned, enduring year after year!"

"I've endured for so long, and now you're going to throw away all our efforts just for this little brat?!"

His expression had become ferocious, and his narrow eyes seemed to be spitting fire.

"I've been putting up with this idiot for so damn long!"

"Twenty years ago, at the best time, when we had the best chance to defeat Kaido, when all of us risked our lives, we failed because of those two idiots!"

"Now we have to do it again, huh?!"
