One Piece: Arkham: Buggy the Clown

Chapter 248: Ghost Shattered
A certain sea area in the New World.

The flying squirrel put down the telescope in his hand and said seriously: "It is basically certain that this is indeed the headquarters of the Revolutionary Army."

The warship could see the outline of an island in the distance, but the flying squirrel did not dare to get close and just observed it with a telescope near the coast for half a day.

Judging from the ships anchored nearby, this was indeed the base camp of the revolutionary army and the Joker did not lie to him.

As for whether the other party had discovered him... the flying squirrel was not sure.

The revolutionary army had always been elusive, and he had never fought against them, nor did he have an accurate grasp of the strength of their cadres.

"Has the headquarters responded?"

"We need to send people as soon as possible. At the very least, we need to issue a demon-killing order."

Aside from the Joker, the Flying Squirrel won't have any friendship with other criminals, so using the Demon Killer Order to blow them all up is the best option.

Unfortunately, he is not a general and has no authority to issue a demon-killing order, so he can only apply to his superiors.

"The headquarters... the headquarters seems to have more important things to deal with, and they don't seem to be very concerned about the news from the Revolutionary Army headquarters."

The communications soldier beside him responded without much confidence.

Ever since the world's most vicious criminal was replaced, the attention the Revolutionary Army has received has been declining, and it has been reduced to being on par with those larger pirate groups.

"What about Sakaski? Didn't Marshal Aokiji say that they have reached a cooperation?"

As a fellow hawk in the navy, Flying Squirrel still values ​​Akainu, the former leader of the hawk faction. If it weren't for the Celestial Dragons incident, Sakaski would probably be a marshal now, right?

And given his tough personality, G1 might even become the headquarters of the Navy, serving as a stubborn nail for the Navy facing the new world.

The signalman turned around and shook the Den Den Mushi again.

The flying squirrel commanded the warship to turn around.

Just determine the place, there's no need to go up and fight one-on-one.

After a while, the signalman came running over with a look of astonishment on his face.

"Mr. Flying Squirrel!"

"According to our headquarters, the Jokers have raided Marijoa!"

The flying squirrel was not surprised by the news. "Well, is it impossible to hide it this time?"

He remembered that the World Government tried hard to conceal it last time.

"Even if the Marshal and Momosagi can't leave, what about Fujitora and Kizaru?"

"…Another piece of information is that the Joker has teamed up with former Admiral Zephyr to destroy the New World."

"..."

"This guy has a really fulfilling life."

"Can't Sakaski also run over to join in the fun?"

The flying squirrel had a premonition that he would not be able to call upon even one of his generals.

It would be great if we could have a few lieutenant generals who are not so weak.

The flying squirrel had little hope.

"Mr. Flying Squirrel, look, the Revolutionary Army seems to be making some moves!"

The flying squirrel quickly ran to the bow, raised his telescope and saw from afar that the port of Baldigo had suddenly become very busy...

The revolutionary army had packed up their bags, large and small, and were huddled near the port, as densely packed as an ant colony. Did they seem to be evacuating?
The flying squirrel turned around and looked at the flag of his ship, and felt that there was a high possibility that the revolutionary army was evacuating.

As long as you are discovered by a warship, it is equivalent to being discovered by the world government and the navy. Timely evacuation is a good way to stop the loss.

The only problem is…

Are you being too cautious?

He only brought one warship!

……

……

FOOD…Island.

No matter how unwilling Kizaru is, he has to fight.

The battle between the two was like light pollution.

First the gas ghost started to explode randomly, and then the light jade started to fire crazily.

After witnessing the power of Buggy's Tremor-Tremor Fruit, Kizaru gave up the idea of ​​using Ame no Murasaki and instead used the Light Ball to pull continuously.

At first glance, it was Kizaru who was constantly suppressing the Joker in the sky.

In reality, it was Kizaru who was keeping a safe distance.

Whitebeard almost caught him when he was halfway through teleporting...

If he were hit by the Tremor-Tremor Fruit, Kizaru would vomit blood and suffer internal injuries on the spot.

If we have to pick a flaw in the Pikachu Fruit, Kizaru feels very uncomfortable with the shortcoming that it is not very resistant to attacks.

Of course, this vulnerability is based on the premise that one has Armament Haki and can avoid natural elementalization.

Time passed minute by minute.

The sun gradually turned from bright and clear to gloomy, and at some point a dark cloud covered it.

The rain was falling heavily.

The entire town now has the outline of a lake, and the sandworms that were originally pressed underground are now exposed.

Both the Navy and the NEO Navy tacitly gave up the main battlefield.

Afraid of being touched.

Kizaru still sticks to his strategy, mainly relying on kite guerrilla warfare, and the Joker doesn't seem to be planning to be too radical, and the two of them mainly focus on transforming the town.

During this period, Fujitora also tried to join the battle.

Use the staff sword to perform a move with multiple gravity - Hell Brigade.

Successfully cut the clown into dozens of pieces.

Then the clown got close to him and used the shaking power of the Tremor-Tremor Fruit to beat him, causing him to mouthful of blood.

The experienced ones who have seen this power have always kept their distance.

Fujitora has seen it before.

He turned around and went to find trouble with Zefa.

It's fair for the blind man to be kind to the old man.

The rainwater first filled into the soil, and then was occasionally beaten out by strange forces. After several mixings, the water became extremely turbid.

"That's about enough fun."

Bucky looked up and saw that the dark clouds had dispersed a little, allowing spots of stars to appear.

One day...the coating work is done, right?
The people of the NEO Navy are consciously retreating.

"It's really rare for me to hear the words 'enough' from a clown."

Kizaru hovered under the dark clouds, keeping a distance of nearly fifty meters from the clown.

Don't ask, just look at the bloodstains on the blind man's scarf and you'll know that it would really hurt if you were hit.

I'm old now and can't bear to see these things.

“So we need to change the way we play.”

Bucky gathered all the ghosts back.

Then he turned to Zefa and said, "Can you finish what you said before you die?"

He planned to leave the task of placing the underwater bomb to Zefa.

Bucky saw something even more interesting.

Zefa was unexpectedly silent for a moment, finding it hard to believe the generosity of his partner.

To be honest, Zephyr asked Ian to contact the Joker with the plan that the Joker would come and hijack the Power Rock to threaten the whole world.

Zefa was a little surprised that this guy was helping like this.

He nodded, and heard the clown say, "Well, it would be best if you could live another half a month. That way you should be able to see me blow up the holy land."

The clown was reluctant to lose an interesting audience.

Living another half a month might be a curse to others, but it is a real blessing to Zefa.

In order to resist Fujitora's attack, the old man once again took the deadly drug ES. His lavender hair had completely turned white, and his skin was weakly wrinkled. Fujitora silently put away his cane and sword, and did not continue to encircle the old man, but turned his attention back to the clown.

The biggest problem is still the clown.

The man who caused the most chaos in the world after Pirate King Roger.

He stretched out his hand and touched the blood on the scarf, and felt a dull pain in his internal organs.

"Okay, okay, now we can have more fun!"

After Buggy watched Zefa and the others leave, his eyes became brighter. He now fully understood how Kaido felt when he jumped off Sky Island and fell freely.

That thrilling feeling...

"This should be a new habit. The sight of blood spurting out can be particularly irritating to the nerves... It could also be a new disease... I wonder what kind of diagnosis the previous attending doctor would give."

The clown rolled up his hair, smirked a few times, and his eyes looked like an old man hanging himself - he was tired of living.

But his tone was still relaxed and teasing, and then he complained:
"But they never dared to kill me, as if that would be a terrible thing to happen, as if that would break the mask that they were wearing tightly on their faces."

"Well, actually..." The Joker grinned, "That mask never existed. Killing me is like..."

"Look..." He waved his hands and pointed around.

Under the successive bombings of the two natural systems, not even a ruin was left of the town. Even the broken walls and ruins of the buildings had been buried by the soil, and rainwater had accumulated, making it like a mud pond.

"Perhaps there was someone like me in those houses, but their death was silent."

“No one will remember them.”

"What do you want to express?" Kizaru narrowed his eyes, looking extremely serious.

We really have to be serious this time.

This should be the best chance to kill the Joker.

"I mean..." The Joker clasped his hands together, "Why are you so serious?"

"Smile more."

Kizaru put away his kite-flying strategy, appeared in front of the clown in the blink of an eye, and kicked forward with his elemental right foot.

But then, he saw a smile of success on the clown's face, and his aura suddenly changed, and cloud-like curling lines appeared on his body surface.

“Just like this, hahahaha…”

The dark demonic aura broke through the clouds, and the bright moonlight shone on the demon clown, and his eyes instantly turned red.

Click-click——

Spider-web-like cracks appeared in the air.

"I also want to see how far I can go... Hehehe, this is also a surprise, right?"

The cracks spread to Kizaru's raised right foot with a few crisp sounds.

"The power of fruit awakening?"

Kizaru couldn't even tell which fruit of the Joker had awakened.

But his body suddenly transformed into a ball of light particles and retreated in a way that violated the laws of physics.

The moment his figure disappeared, Fujitora's heavy attack from behind had already accumulated.

"Go to hell, devil!"

"Hell Brigade!"

He was holding the cane and knife in both hands and chopped down fiercely.

A blinding light suddenly appeared.

The flying and slashing blow mixed with the force of gravity changes was as heavy as a mountain collapse, but in an instant its power was as swift as a tiger pouncing on its prey.

It's not just gravity, it's also entangled with armed color domineering.

The thick ground was squeezed again, and the Hell Brigade created a rift like an abyss, pressing towards the Joker with unmatched force.

He can't split.

The surrounding gravity environment suddenly changed by dozens or hundreds of times compared to usual. It was like being at the bottom of the sea, with countless sea water pressing tightly against me, making every movement extremely difficult.

But this is how he feels like a general.

Bucky forced a small smile on his face.

"It was Blackbeard who reminded me."

"Strong enough domineering power can resist ability."

The devil's aura was roaring, and the armed color domineering was immersed in the surface of the body, flowing like the color of falling cherry blossoms.

Like Ryusaku and Zusora Duxing, they are techniques for applying Armament Haki, and it is not difficult for Buggy to learn them.

The slashing blow passed by his face.

The clown's body was neatly cut in half, but his aura did not diminish at all.

"Is it my turn next?"

The half-open face tilted slightly.

Compared to gravity, the damage caused by the slashing attack is limited.

"Ghost...shattered."

His body suddenly became thinner like mist, and then gathered into several ghostly gases.

The ghost's speed was as fast as razor blade.

When it pounced on me, I could clearly hear a crackling sound.

Cracks erupted along with the ghost's laughter.

The earth rose up into mountains, and then quickly collapsed into a valley. There was no fire or explosion, only the constant wailing of earth and rocks.

Fujitora stepped on a huge rock and flew into the air, his gravity knife constantly fighting against the cracks around him.

After a burst of dazzling light, Kizaru suddenly turned into hundreds of clones and dispersed.

Unlike Buggy, among the hundreds of selves created by the light particles, there must be one that is the real body.

Therefore, Kizaru did not arrogantly attack the clown, but suddenly flew high into the sky, blocking the bright moonlight, with his hands clasped into a circle.

"Yata Mirror, Amaterasu."

He flicked his fingers slightly, almost imperceptibly. As the uncle mentioned by Zhan Taowan, how could he not know the technique of Walking Alone in the Sky?

Just waiting for a good opportunity.

The hundreds of clones he created showed no sign of disappearing, but remained like his original self, with their hands folded into a circle.

After a ripple, the clone turned into a mirror of light.

The light of Amaterasu is an extremely blazing white.

Zukong Duxing released his armed color domineering aura and was wrapped in white light. In the blink of an eye, the white light fell like the midday sun, and when it shone on the light mirror, it turned into a straight beam of light and shot up.

Kizaru created hundreds of light mirrors at various angles in the air. White light intersected and flew between the mirrors, forming a white net that illuminated the entire island and the sea surface.

The ghost was passed through by the beam.

It was like a ghost falling into the sun and suddenly burning.

"Pfft hahahahaha!"

"You hid it really well, Admiral Kizaru!"

A certain ghost suddenly burst into laughter, and more ghosts gathered. The burning white light caused countless pits and burn marks on Bucky's body.

Only the wild smile on his face remained unchanged.

The veins on his forehead bulged, and the long-lost pain made the clown's eyes excited to the extreme, making his action of gathering himself seem like suicide.

The white light was rushing towards him.

"Interesting, this is interesting!"

"It's more fun than Yim, hahahaha!"

Amidst wild laughter, the clown threw another punch.

The linear demonic aura seemed to be inspired by something and finally wrapped around his fist. In an instant, the black light covered the white light.

There is also a crashing sound.

The sky and the atmosphere shattered.
