One Piece: Buggy the Clown Who Fell From Grace

"I don't care what you did to me."

He then dropped the matter of Bucky making him bear the burden of aging.

Is there any host more suitable for him than Bucky?

No more.

The Demon Clown had never encountered one in nine hundred years.

Therefore, he was very tolerant and biased.

And beyond the Joker.

The clown's eyes were filled with greed as he looked at Smoker.

A strong impulse arose spontaneously.

Tear him apart, split the demon apart, and devour it!

"What I give you, you should accept carefully; but what I don't give you, you can't take."

Do you understand?

Bucky's aura instantly overwhelmed the Demon Joker.

The black lines reversed, suppressing the original owner.

The "devilish aura" originally referred to the devil of a Devil Fruit, but now it refers to Buggy.

"The experimental results are pretty much what I expected."

The people of Guangdong have been repeatedly tested and tempered again. Sigh, they were wearing short sleeves just the day before yesterday.

Chapter 146 Punk Hazard

Bucky's skin returned to normal in an instant.

A slight upturn at the corner of his mouth, a playful look in his eyes.

To tame an obedient pet, you must let it know who is in charge.

The artificial Devil Fruit was something Buggy instructed him to swallow, but Smoker wasn't included.

But the Demon Joker's actions crossed the line.

"Disobedient children will be punished."

There are probably about ten ES pills left, but Bucky has made some progress in his research on this stuff.

So you don't feel bad about using it.

He popped one into his mouth and chewed it like candy.

His eyes were tinged with a bright red.

Was that form the demon was in when it awakened?

And that aura is comparable to Conqueror's Haki.

But

Why does Bucky feel even more dangerous to him now than in his previous form?!

The so-called demon seems no different from a dog to the Joker.

Smoker's Observation Haki kept sending out dangerous signals.

However, the drug's effect on Bucky's improvement is already limited.

Holly stole almost all the supplies for the New Fishman Pirates, especially during his last battle with Akainu, when he ate handfuls of them.

So what he values ​​more now is the aging side effect of the drug.

Then you see wrinkles appearing on Bucky's face, and a few gray hairs at the roots of his hair, but then he splits away these side effects.

He transferred this aging and depletion onto the demon clown.

This is just like his initial conjecture about the development direction of the Chop-Chop Fruit.

It can race towards the microscopic world, or, like the Soul-Soul Fruit and Memory-Memory Fruit, extend the concept of splitting into these non-real worlds.

Conceptualization is the biggest advantage of rule-based fruits.

Therefore, he is able to split the side effects of the drug and combine them into the demon within his body, just as he is now.

The little replenishment the Demon Clown had just received was immediately lost.

His face was gaunt and emaciated.

Damn it, I'm the demon, how did I end up like this?

The Demon Joker felt utterly aged; all his demonic powers had been taken by Bucky. The awakening of this demonic form should have drained the user's stamina, but now it was draining his own…

He's become a consumable item!

The initial conjecture has been largely verified. Bucky actually had some ideas about the stages after the demon awakens.

One option is to devour the demon within a Devil Fruit, just as I did, to gain power.

Both of them swallowed a new Devil Fruit, allowing them to possess two Devil Fruits within them simultaneously.

But Bucky's real thought is...

"Such an interesting thing, of course we want it all."

Artificial Devil Fruits can be used to feed demons, and new demons can also be introduced.

Bucky chuckled softly.

He doesn't specifically pursue power, but he doesn't rule out acquiring even greater power.

Besides, playing tricks on demons is a lot of fun.

Bucky wondered with some anticipation what the Demon Joker would do when he saw another of his kind squeeze into an already crowded world.

"Moreover, I'm paving a bloody path for this world."

The power of a person with superpowers is not only achieved through painstaking development, but can also be increased by adapting to and devouring demons.

The resulting chaos is predictable.

The chaos Hawkins caused in the world during his four phases alone far exceeded what a cow-type ability user could create...

It's likely that more groups like Blackbeard's, which specialize in hunting Devil Fruit users, will emerge.

What will happen in the end if you raise a gu poisonous insect? It's really something to look forward to.

"They should thank me."

The clown licked his lips, his expression chilling, and turned to speak.

"White Hunter, your chance for promotion and recognition has arrived."

Promoting someone like Smoker to a high position would be a rift within the Navy itself.

Although Smoker's wariness hadn't diminished in the slightest, he still kept his attention focused on the artificial Devil Fruit.

This is a hot commodity in the underground world!

Besides Baolan and the people who fell into the sea king's mouth, there are quite a few survivors on this ship who can be interrogated.

To be honest, Smoker was prepared for no one to survive, after all, the person who came was the Joker.

However, the clown had no intention of getting involved in bloodshed. After completing his verification, he barely managed to restore the ship to its original state.

“Repeated killing is a monotonous and boring thing. I don’t like it. In many cases, I prefer to see them commit suicide.”

The Joker seemed to sense Smoker's question and grinned as he spoke.

He didn't intend to say anything to Smoker; this place was close to Punk Hazard, so it wouldn't be difficult to extract information from them.

Not long after.

Smoker had already determined the origin of the goods.

The former site of the World Government Research Institute, now an uninhabited island—Punk Hazard.

The island was supposed to be shrouded in toxic fumes after a massive explosion…

Smoker watched as the island slowly rose above the horizon.

This once pleasant spring island has no trace of lush greenery; instead, it exudes the twilight of late autumn and early winter.

Only patches of withered grass and lingering mist remain, with only one stream flowing down from the east side of the island and eventually merging into the sea.

Purple ripples spread across the surface of the azure sea.

It's not hard to imagine the scene a year ago when the land was barren and filled with toxic gas after the massive explosion.

The deadly iron netting circled the island, representing the World Government's last vestige of conscience.

However, this conscience has now been torn in several places, clearly indicating the presence of someone.

Behind the warship, a giant ship followed slowly, hovering and casting a shadow over a large area of ​​the sea.

Like a death knell.

The Joker will only choose to cooperate if he has value.

If it has no value, it will probably become like that blue ship, a plaything for the other side.

Smoker exhaled a smoke ring. He wasn't naive enough to think that the Joker would let them off the hook so gently and let them take all the credit.

Every benefit comes with an unbearable price...

But he had no way out.

To achieve your own sense of justice, you must climb higher!

Once you reach the rank of Vice Admiral, you can influence the navy of an entire base; once you reach the rank of Admiral, you can influence half of the navy.

Climbed to the position of marshal...

You can influence the world!
