One Piece: Arkham: Buggy the Clown

Chapter 273 Damn Intern!

He was arrogant, like a lone wolf that had gone through countless life-and-death battles. Even if he was trapped in a trap that was difficult to escape, he still looked at us with an extremely ferocious gaze.

This is Bucky's impression of Barrett.

"Cooperation... Hehehe, you don't have enough understanding of your own situation."

Buggy grinned. He was indeed interested in Raftel's permanent pointer, but it wasn't that he wanted to be the Pirate King.

I just want to add fuel to my game.

The reality of the tsunami and the prophecy of the world being destroyed by flood will prompt people with a sense of crisis to spontaneously go to Marijoa.

But there is one type of people who are exceptions.

Pirates who usually put their heads on their waists don't necessarily care about this.

But this is not necessarily the case with permanent pointers.

They are not Luffy, who clamors to enjoy the adventure process. If there is a shortcut, of course they will take it!

That's one piece, everything!

The old Buggy would also be tempted by this, but now he is just used as bait.

Barrett heard what he said and laughed instead of getting angry.

A sea king with a bird's beak pecked at him, piercing his armor-colored defensive skin and causing dark red blood to flow out.

"Hehehe...I am very clear about my situation."

The blood flowed back to its original state, and Barrett grabbed the sharp beak of the bird with his backhand, then twisted it with force and broke the beak of the sea king.

The domineering Haki consumes a lot of energy, but he also has physical skills that he has honed for half his life, and every part of his body is prepared for killing.

He picked up the sharp bird beak and swung it violently, stabbing it straight at Bucky like a spear.

It is impossible to kill all the sea kings, but as long as the Joker or Aquaman can be killed, the leaderless sea kings will still be just an embellishment and decoration of the ocean!
There are no sea kings on the list of strong ones.

"How can you beat me, trainee crew member!"

Barrett first stepped on the head of a sea king, and the air under his feet suddenly exploded, and he flew directly into the air, like a rough and flexible giant ape, his increasingly rapid breathing made his eyes full of breath.

For Barrett, such consumption actually stimulated a certain nerve in him. He became extremely excited and kept squeezing every potential of his body.

He stood accurately on the bird's beak, and the sharp bones broke.

The bird's beak is not used for attack, but is a stepping stone for him.

Barrett's eyes were still on Bucky, fierce, fierce, and full of contempt.

He had only seen what Bucky was like now in newspapers and live broadcasts, but Barrett was very familiar with what Bucky was like twenty years ago.

Unlike the little brat Shanks, the trainee crew member Buggy has the greed of a pirate but not any of his courage.

He is also greedy for fame and reputation, and has never put in the effort to improve his fighting power.

Collaboration, and such a trainee crew?
There is no such option!

I can kill all the strong people in this world by myself!
Barrett's dried-up domineering Haki began to faintly jump again with the beating of his heart. The armament Haki did not protect his skin, but gathered on his palms.

Faced with such despicable consumption, you have to bar your fangs and risk your life to bite one to death first!
This is what Barrett learned in the battle against the Navy Demon Killer Order.

"It's been a long time...I haven't heard this name."

Some memories in Bucky's mind were called back, and he seemed to be oblivious to the lone wolf's desperate struggle.

He clicked his tongue twice, estimated that the distance was about right, then squatted down, blew on his fist, and gestured twice more.

“Is the caged bird about to break free?”

"No, he can't run away."

Bucky slammed the surface of the sea lightly.

The force that shakes the world roars up.

Then a few clicking sounds were heard, and the surging sea water seemed to stagnate, with cracks like broken glass spreading deeper and deeper.

When Bucky stood up, the sea water suddenly broke into steps, like broken stones. The irregular squeezing formed a sharp water tower, blocking Barrett's way.

"Leave a back view. Yes, at this time, it is best to slowly move the camera upwards from underwater to compare the height of the sea water and the side of the ship, and finally my back view!"

Bucky muttered with a grin.

"Hahaha!"

"This scene will definitely win full marks in Murray's talk show opening call!"

The Joker was laughing inexplicably and happily, as if he was thinking about the moved looks of the citizens when he appeared on a Gotham City TV show.

He began to want to go back.

"Do what you should do." Buggy suddenly turned his head and said to Shirahoshi with a raised eyebrow.

"..."

"…good!"

The mermaid princess' neck shrank at first, then she immediately responded loudly.

In fact, her order was not needed, as a super-giant sea king suddenly jumped out from the sea, and the broken water wall became the stepping stone for the sea king to leap up.

For a moment, only the afterglow of the sunset was blocked.

The sea king-like vortex moved towards Barrett again.

"It will take a while longer."

When the super-giant sea king fell, the sunlight had completely disappeared, and Barrett's attempt to break through the whirlpool blockade was blocked by the water wall.

Buggy was not in a hurry and asked Jinbei to move back and get closer to Wang Zhi and his crew's ship.

"The performance in the arena will continue soon."

He floated up from the boat, clapping.

"Well, don't you have anything to say?"

Wang Zhi, the flying squirrel and the nine-tailed fox remained silent.

"For example...ah, respected Mr. Joker, why did you refuse this sacred duel? Oh, did he throw the white gloves? Did anyone see him throw the white gloves?"

“…Probably not.”

The flying squirrel was already used to the clown's jumping thoughts and responded in a cold voice.

The three of them all had gloomy expressions, which made the Joker feel a little bored. How could there be such boring people in his gang?

"Or, um, Mr. Joker, we will definitely retrieve the pointer of Raftel for you and help you conquer this great route!"

"Really, I will be very touched."

This time the flying squirrel didn't say anything.

The World Government would be most pleased if the Joker could peacefully pursue the treasure of One Piece and fight to the death with the other Four Emperors.

As long as he doesn't stare at Marijoa...

Unfortunately, Raftel's charm is just average in Buggy's eyes.

He spread his hands and said, "Then let's see how our future king of the world performs."

King of the World…?
Bucky's casual remark made the three of them feel a little nervous.

Of course they knew about the prophecy of the great flood. If the islands were really all submerged...it would be acceptable to call Shirahoshi the king of the world.

The three of them lowered their heads, their gazes seeming to penetrate through layers of sea water and fall upon the mermaid princess beneath the sea.

Unconsciously, I feel a sense of fear and... awe.

Even when Jinpei turned over and sat on the boat, he looked thoughtful.

"Come out and fight, you coward intern!"

Barrett's face flushed, and he used his Armament Haki to wield his palms wantonly, like a lion's claws, tearing apart layer after layer of the water walls.

The energy that has been accumulated for a long time but cannot be released can only be vented at sea.

The red eyes stared at the clown's retreating figure. The defense was broken!

The damn intern was totally making fun of himself!

After a burst of energy was spent, a feeling of weakness surged out from within the bones.

All in all, he had been fighting for the entire afternoon, and he had to stay in the air constantly, which consumed his physical strength even more.

Do you want to grind yourself to death?
The light in Barrett's eyes seemed to be about to explode, and the sound of his heart beating was almost as loud as firecrackers.

"no way!"

He is not willing!

The whirlpool continued until the early morning. When the night was darkest, Bai Xing emerged from the sea with her eyes red and swollen from crying.

"good."

Bucky shot out a hand and touched her head.

"You did very well."

The sea surface was dark red, with many corpses of sea kings floating on the surface. The seabirds did not even wait until dawn and hurriedly gathered here.

This is their feast.

However, near the center, a floating corpse of a super-giant sea king stood like an island, its eyeballs the size of a castle were grayish-white, and a crack spread from the top of its skull.

There is no more life.

Only some muscles were still twitching.

Shirahoshi placed her hand on the cheek of the sea king, her cherry-red lips opening and closing, and chants from ancient times echoed in the moonlit night of the sea and sky.

The sea kings resurfaced, and their faces, in various shapes and forms, all showed expressions of sadness.

But there was another same voice echoing Shirahoshi.

王…

Their king...

At this moment, Shirahoshi felt that she had truly broken through a certain barrier. Each sea king became more concrete in her mind, such as Aunt Charlie from the Mermaid Cafe, the mermaid Camie...

Become specific images and... subjects.

The sea kings circled slowly on the sea surface, forming a huge and slow vortex of ocean currents. The floating corpses were pulled slowly into the sea by the ocean currents.

The seabirds that didn't have time to free their mouths were dragged down and buried with the dead.

This was like some kind of ancient ritual, with the people of the tribe circling around their king and weeping for their dead.

Bucky stood on Shirahoshi's head, taking it all in.

He looked for a long time before turning his eyes away.

On the head of this super-giant sea king, Barrett bent his legs and half-knelt, still maintaining a punching posture.

His eyes, which were wide open, seemed to still reveal the ferocity of a wild beast, but a line of blood and tears kept flowing from the corners of his eyes, ears, nostrils and mouth.

The body, which had repeatedly pushed its limits, finally couldn't bear the burden and died with a squeak.

The soul still supported Barrett, standing in an unshakable posture.

Buggy still remembered that Barrett was the second best fighter on the ship after Roger and Rayleigh, and even Rayleigh often fought to a draw with this guy.

But at that time, although Barrett was equally fierce and ruthless, he was still a man willing to trust his back to his companions...

Such a trust must have caused this guy to suffer a lot of betrayal after leaving Roger's pirate group, right?

After all, he doesn't have the charisma of Roger, who, having risen to a high position through brute force, has been blindly pursuing battles with stronger opponents.

He wants to become more powerful than Roger with his own strength.

For most pirates, such guys are definitely terrible.

Because there is no benefit.

Bucky is actually somewhat similar.

However, the biggest difference between him and Barrett is that he always focuses on the big and lets go of the small.

Whether it was the Sabaody Archipelago, Dressrosa, Egghead, or Wano Country, he generously distributed valuables such as gold, silver, and jewelry.

The mermen were willing to work as newspaper deliverymen, while the mermaids settled in the Ark.

Vegapunk moved all his inventions onto the Ark. Although Caesar always said that he was threatened, he also smiled secretly at the factory approved by the Joker.

People like Nine-Tailed Fox and Wang Zhi force themselves to accept the clown's madness and all his strange ideas.

In addition to his strong power, he also has his eyes on the future.

Unwittingly, the Joker's future has gone from certain death to a possible rise to the top.

This didn't matter to Bucky.

He simply stuffed a permanent pointer with the mark rubbed off into Barrett's arms, and then released a video Den Den Mushi.

Under the witness of Den Den Mushi's round eyes, he, Buggy the Clown!

Got this permanent pointer from Barrett's arms!

"It is time to put Morgause to work."

Regardless of whether this is a permanent pointer pointing to Raftel, it was witnessed by Joker and Barrett, two former members of the Roger Pirates.

This is Raftel's permanent pointer!
Then let Morgans spread the conversation between him and Barrett among the intelligence dealers in the form of gossip and uncertain sources.

Rayleigh, Shanks and others also knew that this thing existed.

The enthusiasm of the pirates will naturally be aroused.

"This whole cooperation thing... is a little ridiculous indeed."

After being betrayed many times, Barrett no longer trusts others and only trusts himself, while the Joker simply thinks that this is unnecessary.

After doing all this, Buggy returned to Shirahoshi's head.

The corpse of the super-giant sea king also slowly sank. According to the laws of the ecosystem, for the creatures in this sea area, this is definitely an excellent nutrient that is dozens of times richer than whale fall.

However, the performance of sea kings seems to be somewhat different.

As the last corpse of the sea king sank into the sea, the large circle in which the sea kings were circling seemed to shrink and point in a certain direction.

The sea kings were like migrating schools of fish, gathering up the corpses of their own kind, and the ocean currents they created carried the corpses away in one direction.

"They seem to want me to follow them?" Shirahoshi's eyes turned red again, and she had a deeper understanding of Poseidon's abilities.

But it still depends on what the clown means.

Buggy first looked down and saw that the group of sea kings seemed to have been woven into a sea dragon, swimming under the water.

Where are they going?

Or in other words, where did these sea kings come from?

"This should be interesting."

Buggy narrowed his eyes slightly and did not agree immediately. Instead, he first found Wang Zhi and handed the video Den Den Mushi to him.

He will convey Morgans' affairs through the Den Den Mushi.

And there was Barrett's body... Out of friendship on the same ship - mainly because of the nagging of a certain red-nosed guy, Bucky told them to find a place to bury it.

It would be nice to just bury him nearby on Peach Island.

Vegapunk has invented a bubble gun that will make anyone with special abilities who touches the bubbles lose their abilities, but in addition to that, the bubbles created by the bubble gun also have a similar coating effect.

Bucky was also recruited.

When he finished doing all this and returned to Bai Xing's head, only the tail of the herd was left, looming under the light of the stars and the moon.

"Let's go and take a look."
