One Piece: Buggy the Clown Who Fell From Grace

Losing moisture is losing moisture; no matter how strong Jhin's regenerative abilities are, he can't conjure moisture out of thin air.

"Probably," Old Sha just chuckled.

Some people were reminded of Moria's performance in the Marineford War.

If he had his current strength, the World Government would never remove him from the list of Seven Warlords of the Sea.

From being a disgrace to the Seven Warlords of the Sea, he has risen to a position of prestige.

Even Doflamingo wasn't that brave.

Is it related to the clown?

"Otherwise, you wouldn't have been able to persuade me."

Old Sha trusts no one but himself.

But faced with a madman who was determined to die... he still chose to take a gamble.

"But it's over. One body was missing in twenty-three years, but now it's been replaced... and maybe a few more can be added."

Jin whispered a few words. Outside the battlefield dominated by the four of them, the battle between the base, the Flying Six, and Absalom, Mr. 1, and others was almost one-sided.

It was Kidd who was clearly causing trouble, swinging his giant fist made of magnets indiscriminately.

Otherwise, the battle would have ended long ago.

"If that's all there is to it, I won't go with this guy. Why do something when there's no chance at all?"

Old Sha smiled and raised his palm.

A sandstorm slowly took shape.

"He takes care of Kaido, and I'll help him remove other obstacles. That's our agreement."

Thinking of this, Old Sha seemed to sense something and murmured something.

"Moonlight Moria... Hero of the Western Seas..."

"..."

"Hee-woo—"

The shattered shadows from Kaido's hammer blows reassembled. At this moment, the sun was high in the sky, and the shadows at people's feet were just a clump.

But this mass seemed to be drawn by something and suddenly began to move.

"Shadow... Shadow, the shadow ran away by itself!"

"The shadow has grown legs!"

...

Amidst gasps of surprise, the shadows of the entire Flower Capital converged under the pull of this force.

"A Spirit Bomb?"

"And you're borrowing power?"

Bucky, who was having a great time in the Great Serpent City, glanced sideways. Under the yellowish lantern light, his long shadow, which had already grown long legs and was ready to run away, suddenly stopped.

"But you did a really good job."

He shook his hand, revealing a tangled mass of unknown creatures behind him, resembling a dozen pythons bound together. Occasionally, one or two demonic figures could be seen, also entangled within the mass.

Every now and then you can see several mouths biting each other, taking a bite and then growing another piece in another place, and then repeating the process.

"Alright, we've done most of the necessary verifications. It's time to check out the situation outside."

Buggy muttered a few words; he had almost finished speculating about Devil Fruits based on Orochi.

Next time I can use it on myself.

First, he took off his coat, which was covered in venom. Then, he slowly gathered the remaining Devil Fruit, a piece of living flesh, and an ornately decorated katana into a box.

Then he turned around and faced the indescribable creature.

First, rotate your right hand 360 degrees, then press your left hand horizontally against your abdomen, and slide your right leg backward while bowing slightly.

"Immortality is the biggest joke in the world, and I'm sure you'll like it."

elegant.

Quite elegant.

That was the only word that came to Denjiro's mind.

In the blink of an eye, the clown was seen carrying the treasure chest and walking out of the city.

Denjiro hurriedly followed, but his steps were unsteady.

The Great Serpent Castle no longer had a main gate. The two of them walked to the edge, and without waiting for the clown's signal, Denjiro took the initiative to step forward.

He kicked the wall open with both feet.

"Well done."

Bucky offered a few words of encouragement.

As the sole observer of this experiment, the other party's feedback was one of intense fear.

Stepping outside the wall, the dazzling sunlight immediately enveloped me, giving me a warm and cozy feeling.

Bucky raised his hand to shield his eyes, giving them a moment to recover after spending the night in semi-dark conditions, but he could still see it from a distance…

A giant, shadowy figure exuding madness stood in the sunlight, its fiery-headed head seemingly touching the clouds, baring its fangs and roaring repeatedly, its voice piercing through metal and splitting stone.

"It's another beautiful day, isn't it?"

It's almost the end of the month again. This newbie is setting out a bowl and humbly asking for monthly votes!

Chapter 208 The Fire Dragon Torch!

Kraigana Island.

Thick fog clung to dark shadows, and moss climbed the ancient, dilapidated castle, creating an eerie and terrifying atmosphere.

Apart from the baboons roaming among the branches of the large trees, there are hardly any strangers here.

Perona really liked this place.

The environment was similar to that on the horror ship, without the unpleasant sunlight and with hardly anyone around.

It's very quiet, which suits her perfectly.

It became even quieter after the swordsman with the single axis left.

Perona hummed a song, ignoring the castle's wide-open iron gates, and walked straight through the wall.

"Hmph~ Hmph~ Hmph~"

Have you cooked?

She was wearing a gothic-style dress, holding her hat to her chest, and asked a question to the man sitting in the hall.

"It's your turn to do it today."

Hawkeye flipped through the newspaper without even lifting his eyes.

"Really? But I just went to plant vegetables."

Perona floated onto the long oval table, tilted her head in distress, and gestured with her delicate hands to indicate that she had worked very hard.

"That's what baboons do."

Hawkeye remained unmoved. "By the way, do you know Gecko Moria?"

"Of course! Haven't I said it many times?"

Perona tilted her head back, clearly annoyed by Hawkeye's nonchalant attitude.

"Although he is a very lazy pirate, I would have died when I was very, very young without him."

She tilted her head ninety degrees and stuck out her tongue.

Like this

"Therefore, Moria is Perona's only captain!"

"Is that so?" Hawkeye picked up the white jade-like porcelain cup, took a small sip, and then closed the newspaper.

This relationship sounds like that of a foster father.

"A fishman delivered a letter today; it should be for you."

He felt he didn't have much of a relationship with that former colleague.

Yes, they even looked down on the other side during the Marineford War.

It's a bit weak.

Unexpectedly, when I returned from a business trip, my former colleague's adopted daughter came to my house, saying she was going on a trip.

It also comes with a bonus: a green algae-headed swordsman.

Given that Perona wasn't noisy, Hawkeye reluctantly took her in.

"The captain's letter—when did he learn to write letters?"

After a moment of confusion, Perona suddenly had a bad feeling.

The envelope, wrapped in a thin film, was placed on the table. She picked it up but didn't open it immediately; instead, she let it float upwards.

Her body was as light as a balloon, almost like a ghost, possessing an intangible quality, and she could move freely between walls.

After passing through the ceiling, she arrived at her small room.

When traveling, things can be a bit rushed; one second you've agreed, and the next you're already on a flight.

Naturally, he didn't bring much with him, except for a life card that he always carried with him.

Perona placed it in an exquisite hair accessory box.

The life card was a square piece of white paper, which was originally placed in the upper right corner of the hair accessory box, supported by a piece of black velvet.
