One Piece: Buggy the Clown Who Fell From Grace

"If you eat too much, you need to move around to digest it."

After swallowing the ram-horned demon, the demon clown had already foreseen his fate.

But I never expected this day to come so soon.

"You will die, you demon! You will be devoured by the demon and die!"

He was suspended by a pale blue gas rope, and the demon clown spoke haltingly.

Bucky had already provoked him many times, and the Demon Joker was no longer able to fight back.

"It sounds like you know something secret."

Is it something I can know?

A clown with ram's horns pressed his forehead against the demon clown's, holding a small knife in his hand, and slicing chunks of blood, like pieces of fruit, off the demon clown's face.

"uh-huh?"

The knife was pressed against the clown's cheek, then suddenly plunged in, gouging out a large chunk.

"what!!"

The demon clown cried out in pain, his will completely melted away under such torment.

But the clown didn't stop for a second.

It seems he has no intention of stopping until he has squeezed this devilish clown dry.

Completely digesting the fragmented fruit has always been one of his small goals.

Although everyone got along very well.

But it's not just one person.

"It's okay if you don't want to talk about it, it's just that I'm not used to it, not used to having a living demon inside my body."

"Don't worry, it will be quick."

The demon clown was quickly reduced to a skeleton, but the clown in the mental world showed no sign of stopping.

"Hahahahahaha!"

In reality, the black flames burning on Bucky's body are growing stronger and stronger, and he has begun to grow again.

The abilities of gas and the ability to shatter no longer exist separately, but have truly merged.

"My little gang doesn't seem to have let me down."

"The Little Mermaid?"

Kaido became very strange upon hearing Buggy's heartbeat.

One moment it was throbbing violently, the next it was completely silent, and its aura was extremely strange.

"That's interesting."

He stood up, revealing the sharp spikes of the Eight Precepts.

The aura detected by his Observation Haki was strange and unsettling.

Kaido is already considering whether or not to deliver the final blow.

But before he could make a move, the moonlight was suddenly obscured by a large shadow.

Looking up.

A large iron ball surrounded the white mist, filling the night sky.

At the port of Renbu in Wano Country.

A ship without a flag is anchored in the harbor.

The agent, dressed in a white suit, suddenly turned around.

"Is it that thing?"

Renbu Port is located in the inland sea of ​​Wano Country, not far from Onigashima.

You can also see that enormous iron ball here.

The person who spoke first wore a mask with several stitching marks.

"Yes."

"This is probably what adults worry about the most."

The agent who answered wore a white mask painted with an inverted U-shaped camouflage, and his hairstyle resembled that of a tribal chief.

"Hmm, the clown has already developed the means to activate the Holy Mother's Flames. The backup plan needs to be activated ahead of schedule. Heh, perhaps we should keep an eye on the research institute."

The Holy Mother's Flame was repaired by Vegapunk, and the fact that the Joker can now use it suggests a possible connection.

"But is this how this weapon is designed to strike?"

"It's a bit different from what I saw during the live stream."

The giant iron ball didn't unleash a terrifying laser like it had when targeting the clown. Instead, it suddenly opened its mouth and dropped out a dozen or so smaller versions of the iron ball.

Three fell onto Onigashima, and the rest were scattered around Wano Country and the surrounding seas.

"Last time was also experimental, the Holy Mother's Blazing Flame. Could this be what the Holy Mother meant?"

The two agents looked on with suspicion.

One of the small iron balls fell into the sea between Oni Island and Renbu Port.

Immediately afterwards, a brief red light flashed on the small iron ball.

In about half a second, the iron ball exploded.

It wasn't firelight, but a violent laser beam that was continuously compressed and then burst forth.

A large area of ​​seawater was suddenly evaporated beneath the surface, and it continues to spread outwards.

The ghost island was also swallowed up by the laser.

The seawater surged and rolled up from the nearshore area, and in an instant, the waves reached a height of ten meters.

"Quickly, abandon ship!"

"The explosion triggered a tsunami!"

Without hesitation, the two agents abandoned the government personnel on the ship and ran towards the port.

In no time, the waves had swallowed all the ships outside the harbor.

"This is your backup plan?"

An iron ball also fell next to Kaido.

Kaido's hand suddenly froze.

Aftershocks continue on Ghost Island.

Now there is a problem.

Do all small iron balls have the same power?

What principle is used to detonate it?

If they were all detonated like the previous one...

How many just arrived?

Twelve or thirteen?

The entire Wano Country will be blown to smithereens!

Do you like it?

"Hahahahaha!"

Bucky climbed up from the bottom of the pit for a while, and just then his head popped out.

"You're right, one person can't accomplish great things alone."

"But luckily, I also have a small group of people."

"Hmm." He tilted his head, and his shattered body was repaired by the black flames, growing back into a complete form.

"Although it is still small in scale, it has unlimited potential."

"Go and launch an aggressive expansion!"

"So, I wonder if any of you would be interested in joining our little group?"

"We can do some big things together."

"Or I can give this to you."

Bucky pulled out a switch from his person that looked very familiar to people from the Kingdom of Lulusia.

"Onigashima, or Wano Country?"

"Choose one?"

Chapter 197 Kaido's Luck

A clown's basic skill is being able to pull out unexpected gadgets from his person at any time.

For example, the switch for an explosive.

It makes sense for the Joker to carry a red switch around, right?

These little things exist inside his body, splitting and recombining as they split, as if they were part of his body.

And it can be taken out at any time.

"Or shall we make a pact?"

The clown looked like a demon crawling out of hell, with ram's horns pointing to the sky, a blood-stained red nose, a grinning face, and black flames swirling around his body.

After pushing himself up from the bottom of the pit, he suddenly collapsed back onto the ground, looking extremely weak, casually holding the switch in his hand.
