One Piece: Buggy the Clown Who Fell From Grace

Bucky made no attempt to hide his words.

Smoker's attention was still on the head that was speaking, but suddenly one of his hands appeared beside him.

He clenched his fist, and black Armament Haki slowly spread out.

IQ is not the same as knowledge, but a high IQ can help one acquire knowledge quickly.

For Bucky, if he has not only seen something many times but has also been hit by it, what reason is there not to master it?

Is it really possible to fight the little bat a few times using only the fighting techniques of street thugs?

That guy has definitely trained properly.

However, the feeling of bullying others with force is also quite nice.

Bucky smiled slightly.

I can almost understand how the cute little bat feels when it bullies those criminals.

The fist slammed into the Smoker's stomach, causing him to vomit blood.

Armament Haki!

Smoker was startled; this was something the intelligence hadn't mentioned.

If you could master both types of Haki and the Six Styles, then what's the point of mentioning anything below Vice Admiral!

He had originally thought that his ability to transform into natural elements could be a source of strength.

The difference between this place and the one in Loguetown is just too great!

Especially that manic yet cold demeanor...

With a twirl of his ten hands in front of him, the pitch-black fist suddenly split into even more fragments.

"Shave, then throw the knife."

Bucky spoke in a relaxed and leisurely voice.

The six quick-moving techniques of shaving are really useful.

But each of his scattered hands had its own ideas.

With a swift movement, the skin and flesh of the finger were torn open, revealing the pale bone inside, which was then covered by jet-black Armament Haki.

Although he has only recently mastered it, Buggy's proficiency in Armament Haki is already comparable to that of a veteran vice admiral.

Not satisfied with the bone fingers, it split into sections the size of bullets.

With the speed of the shaving, it pierced through Smoker almost in the blink of an eye.

"That's a pity."

The fleshy part gripped Smoker's hair.

His abilities and physical skills seemed utterly powerless against the Joker.

"You're worse than your best friend."

"After all, she's now the pirate Hina, with a bounty of 200 million Berries."

"Impossible, Hina would never become a pirate." Smoker propped his head up, blood seeping from his body.

"Yes, that's impossible."

"What prompted this young lady from the Navy to join the ranks of pirates?"

"Don't look at me, I don't have the ability to change a person's mind."

Bucky's head floated down to Smoker and whispered something.

"Of course it's because the Navy wants her dead."

Please vote for me!

Chapter 88 The Next Marshal

If this world were a shonen manga, then Buggy would definitely think he'd be the ultimate villain right now.

Especially the few whispers after grabbing Smoker's hair.

It's just like the villain being a tool for the protagonist who's turning evil.

Hmm, "darkening" is a good word too.

Bucky suddenly realized that he had actually become quite corrupted by the navy during this period.

Let's not even mention Gion; that woman was practically black to begin with.

And then there's Hina.

A once righteous and honorable naval character, draped in glorious justice, has now become a wanted pirate.

What's even more interesting is that, in another sense, this "darkening" is also a form of whitewashing.

Pulling them out of a black quagmire isn't enough to clear their name.

What about justice and evil?

They are often contradictory yet also frequently reversed.

Fortunately, Pakistani doesn't adhere to these rules.

He only cares about whether something more joyful happens.

For example, this man smoking in front of me.

When he first appeared, he was clearly playing the second male lead.

The first Logia-type Devil Fruit user to appear, with a rebellious background that led to his suppression, and his determination to hunt down the Straw Hat crew.

It has a sense of sworn enemies, like Roger and Garp in their second generation.

Then I disembarked in Alabasta.

I made a cameo appearance during the Marineford War.

Then, when it was relaunched two years later, it was repeatedly humiliated and beaten to a pulp by Law and Doflamingo.

It's just a pity that each version has its own unique style.

Smoker didn't even get much of the benefits from the Logia version before being severely punished in the Haki version.

"But if that's the case, the joy you can bring me is very limited."

Bucky's head floated, his face showing some regret.

He had originally wanted to see Smoker and Hina have some fun.

A former friend betrayed him in vain, and his solitary pursuit was shrouded in mystery.

This template looks familiar...

Let's also try some hand-to-hand combat techniques.

It's just a pity that his natural element is a bit too fragile.

That guy, Tenyasha, could hold his own against Buggy for a few rounds.

Armament Haki easily created bullet-like wounds on Smoker's body.

Blood flowed out, and the body seemed to be constantly losing temperature.

He never imagined that the gap between himself and Bucky would be this wide.

No wonder he has a 3 billion Berry bounty on his head.

He had to admit that not only the pirates outside had wishful thinking, but he himself did too.

Buggy? He's just a small-time pirate who's been hiding in the East Blue for over a decade. What's so difficult about catching him?

But the force of the punch hitting you is completely different.

If the two hadn't looked exactly alike, he would have suspected that Bucky had been replaced.

Whether it's temperament, tone of voice, physical skills, or the use of Devil Fruit abilities, it's all a complete qualitative change.

But he disliked Bucky's extremely contemptuous tone even more.

"You said the Navy wants her dead, what's going on?"

Smoker looked up, his face pale but also showing a hint of anger.

Damn it, it's supposed to be a nature science, can't you show some respect?!

Then, his entire body turned into smoke, instantly filling the entire tavern.

"Active elementalization, that's more interesting."

Buggy muttered to himself, "When Logia-type users face Armament Haki attacks, choosing to actively transform into their elemental form to create an environmental advantage is also a good approach."

The tavern was not a large space to begin with, and once the white mist filled it, the air was squeezed out.

A feeling of suffocation arose spontaneously.

"If you don't want to suffocate to death, tell us what you know."

The smoker's hoarse voice came through the white haze of smoke.

He sounded like he had regained some confidence.

"It seems the Navy has been keeping quite a lot of information from you."

Bucky couldn't help but chuckle again.

The information the two possessed was not only unequal, but also vastly different.

However, this is understandable, since Smoker was just a suppressed colonel before the Marineford War.

"No, don't misunderstand, I'm not trying to sow discord between you and the Navy." He waved his hand, looking completely innocent.

"I'm just stating a fact."

"But besides the Navy actively turning its sword against that very confident woman, what other reason do you think could have made her choose to betray them?"
