One Piece: Buggy the Clown Who Fell From Grace

"Did you see that? It's a really interesting scene."

Outside the crowd, Bucky found a tavern and poured himself a glass of slightly cloudy liquor.

His head was still on his neck.

"The number of pirates you killed with this one move is probably equivalent to the number of pirates killed by three naval bases in two years."

Inside the tavern, a man in a long robe and hood took off his hood and gave a wry smile.

Jacques was still clutching a headless rag doll in his hand.

How could Lord Buggy possibly throw his head away like that?

It would be bad if someone in this group was hiding sea stone.

So we had to let his doll do it.

Whether it's true or not is not important.

As long as all the pirates and bounty hunters in the port see it.

The Devil Clown, with a bounty of 3,189 million Berries, removed his own head and threw it into the crowd.

That's it.

Most of the Navy's bounties are for those who are killed or imprisoned.

Especially Bucky, they wished him dead.

"How about the coating we prepare for our next game location?"

Bucky just chuckled.

For him, it was just a bit of fun to lighten the mood.

As for whether innocent people will be implicated or even killed in this, that remains to be seen.

so what?

“Alvida and the others are ready, Mr. Bucky.”

Swann also took off his hood, looking at him with admiration.

Please vote for me!

Chapter 86: Lieutenant General and below, Major General and above

The seawater pushed the sailboat, making a creaking sound as it surged.

The small port was crammed with dozens of wooden boats of all sizes, resembling a fishing port during a period of sea closure, with boats standing side by side.

But we need to be even more outrageous.

Unfortunately, such congestion doesn't deter greed; it only makes it more rampant.

It's unclear which fool started it, but after firing the first shot on the ship, the struggle for Bucky's head completely spiraled out of control.

Flames shot up along the wide sails.

The shell grazed the thick mast and blasted wood chips.

Blood is replaced round after round in the surging seawater, and the gluttonous fish welcome a new feast after half a month.

They greedily rushed towards the lifeless corpses that still smelled of food amidst the blockage between ships.

Even if many of their kind were crushed into flat pieces by the suddenly pressed hull, or blown to pieces by the sudden burst of artillery fire.

They rushed towards the food without hesitation.

The wages of avarice is death.

Ultimately, this group of pirates or bounty hunters was just a motley crew that came together because of the 3 billion bounty.

If the Jokers are indeed as powerless and insignificant as they naively believe, then such a struggle will certainly be inevitable.

Bucky simply brought this competition forward.

In a very fair way...

Give everyone a fair chance to win three billion peggs.

"Are they all fucking crazy?!"

Smoker, accompanied by several marines in civilian clothes, felt somewhat uneasy even just watching from the outside.

That guy actually threw out his head?

I thought those pirates and bounty hunters could wear down the enemy.

As a result, they ended up killing so many people that rivers of blood flowed.

Don't be fooled by the fact that the Navy's bounties are often used by pirates as a way to show off; the destructive power of money is real.

This is especially true for some ambitious individuals.

Smoker had already spotted quite a few well-known pirates in the chaotic crowd, including even subordinates of the Four Emperors.

What is their attitude towards this clown?

"Major General Smoker, should we also try to steal that head?"

"What a load of rubbish!"

The man exhaling smoke said listlessly.

Smoker, nicknamed "White Hunter," indeed has a keen sense of smell. While the Navy was shrinking its forces and the CP organization was setting up surveillance on various islands in the New World, it was those of them who were guarding this place who caught the Joker's trail.

Tashigi's disdain for the Joker is also easy to understand.

They personally captured the Joker and the entire Buggy Pirates in Loguetown.

In a very relaxed manner.

Although the group eventually managed to escape.

But less than six months have passed!

The Joker has become a pirate who is close to the level of the Four Emperors and has an extremely terrifying bounty of 3 billion!

Smoker, who had worked hard for half a year, had just been awarded the rank of Major General...

This also takes into account the long time he spent at the colonel level.

Fortunately, Smoker remained sober.

Given the chaotic scene before them, if they joined in, it would be like a few drops of water falling into the ocean—they would disappear in the blink of an eye.

"If the Joker were so easy to deal with, they wouldn't have offered such an exorbitant price of three billion Berries!"

"Inform headquarters first!"

The girl with glasses was scolded, and looking somewhat ashamed, she muttered to herself:

"Wasn't it because the clown killed a Celestial Dragon and stole a priceless treasure?"

"Didn't that Surgeon of Death also eat a Devil Fruit worth 5 billion Berries? The World Government didn't put a very high bounty on him."

Smoker exhaled a puff of smoke, realizing that Tashigi's information was limited.

He said in a low voice, "The General Staff has compiled all of the Joker's battles from the East China Sea all the way to the New World Fog Battle."

"Although he didn't participate in many battles directly, based on Major General Brownie's description, they analyzed that the Joker's direct strength was roughly between a lieutenant general and a major general."

"But the opponent has extremely high combat intelligence, can master the six styles, and also has a certain ability to bewitch people."

"If that's the case, why set such a high bounty?" Tashigi asked, looking surprised.

Bucky's actions in the Holy Land were forcibly suppressed by the Five Elders, and even Morgans was arrested.

The naval operation of the Fog Battle was disguised by the navy as a purge of traitors.

Therefore, in most people's eyes, Buggy is a daring and arrogant person who dares to openly kill a Celestial Dragon.

Although a bounty of 3 billion pegories is a bit of an exaggeration.

However, with the World Government's encouragement, it has become that Buggy has such a high bounty because he obtained the Celestial Dragons' treasure.

"Naval Battle in the Fog..."

Smoker whispered something.

Although he is already a major general, there are many things he is unaware of.

Especially after a recent news report, the world government has begun to pay extra attention to intelligence work.

Smoker didn't even see that day's newspaper.

"I believe Hina would never betray the Navy, but the bounties for the other two pirate crews have not changed."

"In addition, the higher-ups have taken this very seriously."

"It must be directly related to the Joker."

He took a bite of his cigar, his expression unfriendly.

Hina is one of Smoker's few close friends and colleagues in the Navy, and the two of them handled the Alabasta incident together.

Therefore, when he heard the news that Hina had betrayed the Navy, he simply did not believe it.

"So what should we do next?"

The girl with glasses nervously hugged the longsword in her arms.

Although they had just captured the pirates not long ago.

But three billion!

It's still quite intimidating.

"Let's go to the tavern and wait until most of these guys are dead before we talk."

Smoker felt that those pirates probably shared the same thoughts as him.
