One Piece: Buggy the Clown from Arkham

The night rain, driven by the sea breeze, sprinkled on the iron hull of the warship, and the crackling sound was endless.

Across the distance from the dark green warship was a small town with more than a dozen dim lanterns.

The Kingdom of Lulucia is of course not just the size of this town, but this is the only port that can accommodate such a huge ship as a navy warship.

Other ports can only accommodate some small boats because of the dense reefs or insufficient water depth.

Therefore, this port town has become the most important gateway to the Kingdom of Lulucia, next to the King's Castle.

Although the castle is deserted, the flag on the top has been replaced with... an enlarged version of the clown bounty order.

It flutters like a flag.

This is not Buggy's intention, but mainly because the residents of the town feel that they are living in a powder keg, and it would be too contemptuous if you don't put up a flag, right?

This flag must be put up today!

But Buggy has never established any flag. The original Buggy Pirates had long been changed into a circus by him.

All flags were lost.

So the townspeople took Buggy's bounty and hung it up.

"Did those bastards hand over the remote control?" Spandam stood at the bow, rain dripping from his brown raincoat.

This time he brought four warships and several CP organizations, just to completely solve the country in front of him.

Let them rebel, there are eight or nine countries in rebellion all over the world now, plus the pressure of the Four Emperors, the World Government has no intention of dealing with it.

But it's different to hang the Joker's flag!

That's sticking in front of the World Government and slapping them in the face.

There's no need to hold a world conference.

As early as after the Prodans Kingdom incident, the Joker was named the world's most vicious criminal, and the 3.96 billion Beli bounty was all for him.

In the underground world, there are still many Celestial Dragon families who have promised a bounty of 4 billion Beli plus two devil fruits.

It is definitely a thorn in the eyes of all Celestial Dragons.

After all, no matter how rampant and arrogant other pirates are, they would be satisfied with just robbing the sky-high gold.

Joker is different.

He slaughtered people in front of the whole world!

If this revenge is not taken, the Celestial Dragons will be humiliated.

Therefore, the Lulucia Kingdom incident is different from ordinary rebellion.

"Not yet..." A suited agent behind Spandam lowered his head, looking ashamed.

Last time, Spandam threw all the blame on the bombardment of Judicial Island to the original CP9. Lucci's journey of atonement was not started before he was defeated in Dressrosa, so now Spandam is still the commander of the CP organization.

Now it has changed from CP9 to CP8.

Although the quality has dropped a bit, the quantity has increased.

"A bunch of low-lifes!"

Spandam looked sinister when he heard this. He was wearing a mask that covered half of his face, and his expression was distorted when he cursed.

"I've given them a chance, but now they don't take it..."

The residents of this town took advantage of the suicide bombs left by the clown and dragged on for two days without surrendering. Spandam's patience was basically exhausted.

He simply clenched his fingers into a fist and said, "Fire, I want to turn this island into a ruin under the Demon Killing Order!"

"Sir?! Isn't this too reckless?"

The CP8 agent was not as hard-hearted as the CP9 agent, and couldn't help but give advice after hearing this.

But it was this admonition that made Spandam furious.

"Reckless!"

"You are qualified to call me reckless!"

He kicked and kicked, urging his men to raise the muzzle.

"Go when I tell you to go! What are you wasting time on!"

"Slow down, the fox has done everything!"

Spandam was already angry.

It was about Egghead.

The task of investigating whether Vegapunk touched the blank 100-year research was sent all the way from CP5 to CP8, which he was in charge of.

Unexpectedly, all the agents sent out were killed.

He was also accused by CP0, that slutty fox, of being extremely reckless.

Now that his subordinate described him like this, it was no wonder that he was furious.

However, Spandam was originally violent and unruly, and he was not prepared to show mercy.

Taking advantage of the night rain, the four dark green warships hovering near the coast slowly set up their positions.

The biggest advantage of the navy over the pirates is their weapons.

The black muzzle slowly raised its head, and the rain was still beating.

The quiet town in the distance seemed unaware.

In addition to the navy, many pirates also came during this period.

But they were afraid of the consequences, so they did not plunder.

Simple bombardment did not benefit the pirates at all.

But the navy was different.

They came to save face.

With Spandam's cold shout, the muffled sound of the shells flying out of the muzzle suddenly covered the noisy sound of raindrops beating.

After drawing a beautiful arc in the air, it landed in a residential building with a clang.

Then, flames burst, followed by wailing and screams. In the dark night, in addition to the first flame, many lanterns were lit up at once.

Apparently, the residents of the town also noticed the navy's attack.

But unexpectedly, the navy had no intention of negotiating with them.

"Shoot, keep shooting!"

"What clown bomb, it's just a bluff!"

"Remember not to let a pariah get away!"

Spandam pointed at several small boats in the port and kept urging them.

The shells fell mercilessly like rain, lighting up continuous fires in the wet night.

The bulletin board that Bucky had casually drawn was also shattered by the cannonball. The fire suddenly burned on the bluestone board, and it seemed as if something was lit. The flames shot up in a line and connected to a strange-shaped iron barrel.

More lines of fire quickly ignited in the pre-buried pipes. This was a network of fire that had been buried long ago. Once it was touched, it couldn't wait to burn.

One end even stretches all the way to the offshore area of ​​the port.

When Bucky pressed the bomb, how could he miss the ships that might be in the offshore... Of course, if he wants to blow them up, he must blow them up together!

Let this powder keg explode completely!

…

…

In the Egghead research layer.

Things at the port haven't been reported here yet.

Although Lao Bei has six clones to help him handle his affairs, there is no doubt about the importance of his true body.

The top level is also the most heavily protected.

He was biting his tongue and frowning. There were moments of distress on the white-haired doctor's face.

"The world government is about to fall out so soon..."

Lao Bei couldn't figure out how the World Government learned about his 100-year research gap. He obviously hid this matter very well!

Were those agents the ones who discovered it?

"I also received similar rumors in the underground world... It seems like someone deliberately released the news."

Stussy was leaning against the door of the institute, wearing a white waistcoat over her white short skirt, and fishnet stockings that hooked her delicate legs.

There is also a fox mask on his face.

This thing is also weird, as if someone is planning something behind the scenes.

"Haha, the World Government has sent several waves of agents to investigate, but no reply has been received."

She herself was the last wave of agents sent.

The mission given is to clear out Vegapunk and its six clones.

But...

Stussy is still on Bay's side.

She was originally a clone created by Lao Bei using Bajin Gom as the prototype during the MADS period.

Yes, that's the Ba Jin who claims to be White Beard's Wife, White Beard II's Mother, with a short and slender face.

Just looking at Ba Jin in his current old state, it is easy for people to doubt Whitebeard's taste.

But if you look at Stussy, who is now about 27 or 28 years old, you can recognize Whitebeard's taste.

The white fishnet stockings are really seductive.

There is this inner ghost.

Of course, the team of CP0 agents who were traveling with her were already lying down, and there were still few strong men like Rob Lucci.

Most CP0s are at the level of Kaku.

Especially when the command is still in Stussy's hands.

"Agent?" Lao Bei looked suspicious, "I didn't receive this news. Could it be that Zhan Taowan cleaned it up?"

"If it were those people from CP8, they would definitely not be able to find anything!"

Lao Bei still has this bit of confidence.

Although Satan Sheng always felt that he had a firm grasp on Lao Bei.

This answer made Stussy frown.

Spandam did send someone...

This is certain, but Lao Bei said that he had not seen these agents.

So where are these agents?

Plus the previous rumors...

Putting the two together, the world government's trust in Lao Bei was invisibly reduced to the lowest level.

"Satan will not give up easily. After all, you have touched their bottom line."

Stussy picked out her nails, which were sharp and prickly.

Then he stabbed the comatose colleagues to ensure that they would not wake up again.

These are CP0 agents that the world government has painstakingly cultivated. They are dead warrior-like existences and will never betray.

So it's better to send them to be reincarnated.

"I can't handle it for long, doctor. We need to consider our options."

After wiping her nails, Stussy found a wheelchair in the laboratory, feeling familiar.

"Want to run?"

"You must run, but where you run is the question."

If the world government doesn't get scientists like Vegapunk, it will absolutely spare no effort to destroy them.

Otherwise, the mission Stussy received wouldn't be killing.

The treatment that Lao Bei receives when he goes to sea is definitely two extremes from the treatment that ordinary pirates receive when they go to sea.

It wouldn't be surprising if one or two generals come out to pursue them.

It must be accepted by a force that can compete, otherwise Lao Bei's rash departure to sea will only hasten his death.

There are also various defensive measures at Egghead.

"Can the Revolutionary Army accept us?"

After this mission, Stussy never thought that she could continue to be an undercover agent. In fact, it was not considered an undercover agent. It was just that between Lao Bei and the World Government, she chose her creator.

"Dragon..."

Vegapunk was pacing with his hands behind his back.

The development was beyond his expectation.

If he could find out before CP8 came to investigate, he would still have room for maneuver and would have plenty of time. But now that Stussy is here, the Navy has decided to eliminate him.

The time left for yourself is very tight.

"I talked with Long. Although he has been instigating popular uprisings in various countries, he himself does not want to stand on the stage."

"At least he was unwilling to come forward until the liberation fighter showed up."

"It's just a hiding place. The revolutionary army will not refuse, but if they are asked to come to take over..."

Lao Bei paused for a moment, his brows furrowed.

As soon as he goes to sea, the navy's attack will definitely follow him. If there is no force to support him, it will be a dead end.

"Then there are only four emperors."

"Lingling, Shanks, Bucky."

Stussy didn't mention Blackbeard or Kaido.

Before Blackbeard defeated Wang Zhi, he was still one step away from the Four Emperors.

Especially since Lao Hei was tricked by a clown in the Kingdom of Prodence not long ago, and he is still licking his wounds now.

As for Kaido... Although the newspaper used it in the name of cooperation, according to Stussy's information, this guy who is known as the strongest creature bowed his head in front of the clown that day.

"In the new world, only these three people have the courage to accept you."

"Lingling can rule it out."

Lao Bei hesitated for a while and then said.

If Auntie wanted to accept him, she would definitely ask Lao Bei to hand over the research results on giantization. This result violated Lao Bei's consistent moral values, and he sealed it after the research was completed.

Stussy was confused when she heard this, "My relationship with Lingling is not bad, and she has the strength to withstand the pressure of the world government."

She doesn't quite understand Lao Bei's persistence.

After all, as CP0, Stussy is rarely bound by general moral concepts.

Lao Bei remained silent but had a firm attitude.

"Then you can only choose between Bucky and Shanks."

"Where's the dragon's son?"

"Straw Hat Boy... The stupid young man who has just stepped into the new world will probably only find our graves when they arrive at Egghead."

Stussy was telling the truth.

Lao Bei can also understand, unless he wants to drag Long's son to be buried with him.

So I could only sigh.

"There's not enough time!"

Neither the clown nor the redhead are good choices. Bei doesn't like the former's behavior. He is a perfectionist and doesn't like too chaotic situations.

And red hair is even simpler.

The other party was already involved with the Five Old Stars, and he might be sold if he asked for help. The clown was guaranteed this.

There is no room for relaxation for Joker and Pentagram.

Lao Bei hesitated for a long time.

Finally decided:

"Just ask the clown for help. Is the Flame of the Holy Mother still in his hands?"

"Tell him that I have a fusion furnace that can replenish the energy of the Holy Mother's Flame, but only if he comes here quickly. The navy is already on the way!"

After making the decision to seek help, Lao Bei finally breathed a sigh of relief and operated on the densely packed instrument dials.

"Okay, from now on, you only need to leave Egghead but not enter. I have issued a red alert and asked all researchers to evacuate immediately."

"That will make our time even tighter." Stussy's expression was solemn.

The navy is not a fool. Egghead's obvious action will only make them move faster.

"Huh... I can't ignore them." Old Bei shook his head, "The sea beasts and Seraph will buy time for us. I have to sort out the research materials quickly."

…

…

at the same time.

The port of Egghead.

Bucky took off his red nose and lowered his white peaked cap.

Watching the scene where old Hughes was escorted off the Hughes by management staff.

The corners of his mouth kept twitching, and his smile could not be suppressed.
