One Piece: Buggy the Clown Who Fell From Grace

He actually created such a four-Devil Fruit user with his own hands!

Vegapunk was overwhelmed with mixed feelings as he looked at his research findings.

Even the birth of pacifists and seraphim did not evoke such complex emotions in him.

But as a clown who overthrows the old order, he is more than qualified.

Old Bei doesn't care about Nika from the mythology anymore.

"You have only acquired this ability initially; its growth depends on your own efforts."

Unlike Devil Fruit users who explore the full potential of their abilities, his Tremor and Childlike Wonder abilities are still in their infancy compared to his other two abilities.

"You must be very hungry. Food has been prepared for you."

Next door to the laboratory, large quantities of high-calorie food are continuously transported in via conveyor belt.

Chapter 235 Black Bat Toy

Bucky was indeed extremely hungry, to the point where his stomach was practically touching his back.

Vegapunk also provides high-calorie foods such as fried chicken, roast meat, and grilled fish.

He sat cross-legged on the conveyor belt and ate for three hours before he felt his body return to its original state.

The fusion of green blood does indeed consume a lot.

However, he could sense that if it were just a simple fusion of an ability, his body might not need such a long adaptation period.

Three souls, three abilities—that makes perfect sense.

It's just not exciting.

So he incorporated one more thing.

After eating and drinking his fill, Bucky came out of the laboratory, walked out of the eggshell area, and stood on the island cloud.

He wants to first demonstrate his specific abilities.

First, there's the Tremor-Tremor Fruit, which is perfectly integrated with the Chop-Chop Fruit. This ability has the most significant amplification effect on Buggy.

The power that originally split his abilities contained a vibrating force.

Moreover, it is much easier to split when it acts on the body and the air.

Bucky stretched out his finger and gently tapped the island cloud.

Cracks kept spreading from his fingertips.

It wasn't just a simple split; the internal structure was also destroyed by the force of the tremor, and the island cloud directly dissipated into fragments of mist.

This made up for Bucky's previous lack of lethality.

However, this vibrational power is currently only in its nascent stage. He tested it on the eggshell behind him, and the vibrational power during the splitting process was much weaker.

But it also caused the entire laboratory to light up with a glaring red light.

Pakistani remained unfazed and grabbed a piece of island cloud to cover the crack.

Next project: Fun Fruits for Kids!

The original Devil Fruit has a side effect: it stops the user's growth the moment they eat it.

Bucky: Is there really such a good thing?

He rubbed his face, unsure if the growth had really stopped, and decided to wait a couple of days to see if the stubble would grow back.

Aside from the side effects, the Hobby-Hobby Fruit's power is still quite strong. As long as you touch it, the creature touched will turn into the toy that the user desires, and all memories of the target by other people in the world will be completely erased.

It can even be possible to establish a contract with them, making them unable to act freely according to their own thoughts and to obey orders.

The condition is that the user must be in a conscious state.

Can I switch personalities myself?

Bucky stroked his chin, knowing that the ability he copied using green blood couldn't possibly be exactly the same as the original from the start.

Like the Tremor-Tremor Fruit, it probably needs a fruit to mature.

This isn't a demon awakening; it's more like feeding a demon into existence.

Then we'll torment him until he awakens!

Of course, this bug-level fruit is not without its flaws.

Later in the story, Oda, through Guy's words, added a patch to these rule-based Devil Fruits.

As long as one's Haki is strong enough, one can become immune to the effects of Devil Fruit abilities.

Sexually transgender diseases like Doc Q are also subject to this.

Fortunately, it's enough for Pakistan.

He squinted and looked around. Apart from himself, Vegapunk, and his six clones, there was no one else on the experimental level.

The experimental materials are available.

We still need to go find the black lady!

The black woman is currently the only living experimental subject on the experimental layer, so her treatment is naturally excellent.

In addition to a complete set of sea stone meticulously carved by artisans from Wano Country, a single room is also included, along with all three meals.

It's much more ethical than the underwater prison.

The continuous blood draws and meat cuttings made the black woman look extremely haggard, her dark face turning pale.

When the clown approached, he only glanced up listlessly.

What are you planning to do now?

“Cooperate with me on another experiment,” Bucky said with a smile. “Then, I can help you unlock your shackles.”

"So, isn't it a great deal?"

The black woman felt that the clown had ill intentions.

No, this guy has never been kind.

God knows how she got through the past two weeks!

She's a legendary pirate with a male gender identity, and she actually has to squat to pee!

On the other hand, if the shackles were removed, he could use his domineering aura to cure the disease.

No, I can't be impatient... The clown definitely won't be that kind!

The black woman calmed down, and her sinister eyes softened, just like her behavior in the Whitebeard Pirates.

All the captains, including the old man, believed themselves to be unambitious and harmless.

I must first make this impression on the clown in order to escape the fate of having my blood drawn and flesh cut every day!

"I will cooperate; this was agreed upon at the beginning."

The middle-aged woman smiled. "As for unlocking the shackles, it probably won't be that easy."

"I'm content as long as I'm still alive."

No wonder Blackie was able to become one of the Four Emperors through his own hard work. If it were Straw Hat, he would be cursing and yelling all the time.

Bucky smiled gently. "That's a pity. I was thinking of giving you something to look forward to, like getting a key fragment by doing an experiment."

The bronze key he was holding then shattered into seven pieces.

"Strictly speaking, there's no direct conflict of interest between us, right?"

One experiment was enough to unlock her shackles, and the black woman wasn't so easily fooled, but if it were seven fragments instead, the old man thought it wasn't out of the question.

Neither way can they escape.

"I am willing to cooperate."

The middle-aged woman revealed a mouthful of yellow teeth.

Bucky first helped the black woman untie a pair of shackles.

The reason he talked so much with Old Black and even played the key-collecting game was mainly to see the extent to which domineering aura affected his abilities.

It can't just be for entertainment, can it?

Well, at least half of the reason is for entertainment.

Without the little bat in his world, he always had to find his own ways to pass the time.

After Bucky unlocked his shackles, he pretended to casually step aside to let Old Black pass, as if a way out was right in front of him.

"You don't need to test it; collecting fragments is a good way."

Old Hei smiled with genuine admiration.

He considered it and realized that, still in shackles, he was no match for the Joker.

You have to be patient, patient until the clown's vigilance completely drops, then you can strike and leave!

How do you need my cooperation?

He didn't even use his domineering power to dispel the effects of the gender-swapped disease.

Without the shackles, Old Black couldn't use his abilities, but he gained some strength, since Seastone itself doesn't affect Haki.

However, the energy concentration of the ocean that had previously bound him was too high, leaving him feeling completely powerless.

There are differences between different types of sea stone!

Old Black was waiting for the clown to speak.

Bucky thought the black woman's appearance was quite nice, and since the old black man had no objections, he wouldn't say anything more.

"Let's try it out on a small scale first."

His hand touched Old Black's shoulder, and he was thinking about a toy.

Old Hei remained expressionless, showing no change.
