One Piece: Buggy the Clown Who Fell From Grace

The workers in their coarse cloth and short clothes felt happy enough to chat with the pretty dancers during their brief break.

Then his gaze shifted.

Upon landing in the iron-gray factory, the roaring noise instantly robbed him of all color, and he dragged himself toward the cage.

Toy soldiers carrying rifles walked past him.

The workers had to stop for the time being.

If only the factory could be blown up!

He had no idea.

But in the next instant, the gray cover was suddenly lifted off, and the incessant roar of the machine tool was replaced by a sound like a muffled earthquake.

"The factory... was really bombed!?"

A pungent stench quickly filled the air after the smoke of battle.

"What kind of bomb is this? It smells terrible!"

The dancers covered their mouths and noses, and the workers covered their faces with gray cloths.

Amidst the smoke and dust, a tall, rather robust figure darted out.

"Hehehe, the rest is up to you, Sand Crocodile!"

Moria, dressed in a black tuxedo, rushed out.

The factory explosion was his doing.

After his shouts, Old Sha also ran out on a sandstorm.

"The wrong place was bombed; this isn't the SMILE factory."

"Didn't you find any artificial Devil Fruits?"

"No."

"There's one more thing."

Old Sha held his breath, glanced at Moria, and spoke in a low voice.

"If you use a biological bomb like this again, I'll kill you."

He never expected Moria to develop the Shadow-Shadow Fruit's power to such a disgusting degree.

They actually collect the carcasses of large creatures like whales, taking advantage of the "whale explosion" phenomenon that occurs when these creatures die.

In other words, the microorganisms in the whale's intestines continue to decompose the food in the stomach after the whale dies, producing large amounts of gases such as carbon dioxide and methane, which eventually burst and explode.

Combined with the ability to manipulate corpses with shadows, this suicide biological bomb was created.

The effect is very good.

It just smells absolutely awful!

Even his teammates couldn't stand it anymore.

"Hehehe, do you have a faster way?"

"That treasure factory might get snatched up by someone else!"

Moria chuckled maliciously, his eyes filled with the satisfaction of a successful revenge.

Doflamingo himself looked down on himself during the Marineford War!

However, the main reason he was able to persuade Crocodile to cooperate was the news released by "a joke".

A factory for mass production of artificial Devil Fruits.

Devil Fruits and artificial Devil Fruits are definitely the hottest items in the underworld right now.

Based on the theory of demon awakening, it is easy to cultivate powerful individuals who can stand alone, or rather, such individuals have already appeared.

At this time, news about the artificial Devil Fruit manufacturing plant began to spread.

The resulting frenzy is unimaginable.

Old Sha grunted and didn't respond.

A sandstorm quickly took shape in his hands.

This kingdom is still the territory of the Don Quixote family.

In the past, even the Four Emperors wouldn't provoke them without reason.

But adding an artificial Devil Fruit factory completely changes things.

Moreover, Crocodile wouldn't consider himself weaker than Doflamingo.

Even if Whitebeard were right in front of him, he would still dare to attack him directly.

"Shalan".

Having finally seen the light of day again, the sand crocodile had no intention of always hiding. This factory could serve as his start-up capital.

He threw the sandstorm that was slowly forming in his palm.

Behind them, the Don Quixote Family's fighting group was hot on their heels.

The storm, carrying with it the lingering stench of decay, swept towards the pursuers behind them.

Diamanti gritted his teeth, his longsword about to be drawn, when a gust of sand blinded him.

Then he turned around and started gagging.

This is practically a biological weapon!

When I opened my eyes again, the figures of the two former Shichibukai had completely disappeared.

"Those two bastards!"

Diamanti could only curse twice.

This was the first time they had been provoked like this.

It's always been the family members stirring up trouble in other kingdoms; when did they become the fire?

Just as they were about to conduct another search, another message came from one of their subordinates.

"Sir, there's been another pirate disturbance at the port."

"…Walk!"

Diamanti waved helplessly, his gaze still fixed on the direction in which the two figures had fled. "Go and quell the riot at the port first. Don't let the pirates land on the island again!"

The fighters from the fighting group rushed in and then ran away in a flurry.

Fortunately, the stench was swept away by the sandstorm.

Violet opened the window a crack, and the neon lights of the ballroom came back on; night had fallen sometime earlier.

"No one should be coming at this time."

Just as I was pondering this, I unexpectedly heard footsteps coming from the doorway.

Workers in coarse cloth short clothes stood at the door.

His eyes were eager.

Is there anything more joyful than a wish coming true?

Is there a flamenco performance tonight?

"Of course."

Violet did not resist the look in his eyes.

Although her family's business was blown up right in front of her, she was actually in a better mood.

Are the two behind them also together?

She saw two people with distinctly different styles standing behind the workers.

What race has wings on their shoulders? Are they bird people?

There are quite a few humanoid races in this world, and Violet can't tell them apart.

But she has a very pretty face.

Body shape too.

And those blue pupils... they felt strangely familiar.

Violet turned her eyes away without making a sound.

The other person's strangeness was much less pronounced.

This is a common clown makeup look, but the details are very well done, especially the festering corners of the mouth and the bright red lipstick.

If it weren't for the pair of ram's horns on her head, Violet would have really thought it was a clown.

"Hello, beautiful lady."

"Don't you welcome your guests? Surely a lively dance party wouldn't refuse a clown who likes to tell jokes?"

Bucky wiped his red nose and laughed.

Yes, there are all sorts of explosions and commotion outside, and he's here watching the dancers perform.

He made no attempt to cover it up.

The Don Quixote family must be extremely busy right now.

Thanks to Morgans's continuous efforts, Dressrosa's popularity remains high, attracting not only pirates and bounty hunters who want to join in the fun.

Pakistani also met with the Navy and the CP organization.

There were even Kaido's subordinates.

He was originally the most enthusiastic advocate for artificial Devil Fruits.

A lively stage.

Just like the one in front of you.

The interior of the dance hall is very similar to that of a bar, but there are two or three steps in the middle that form a spacious stage.
