One Piece: Buggy the Clown from Arkham

"I see, now I finally figured it out."

Vergo whispered as he printed a human-shaped intaglio on several layers of iron plates.

He had a question that should have troubled him for half his life, but it seemed that he had only remembered such a question today.

Why did he join the navy?

Vergo remembered that he, Trebol, Pica, and Diamante had met a child who seemed to be very extraordinary in the North Sea...

The sudden display of domineering aura shocked them.

At that time, although they were already pirates, their strength was not strong, and they were "educated" several times by other pirates before they even boarded the Grand Line.

So Trebol and the others chose to bet on the potential of the child, betting that the other party could lead them to realize their ambition of hegemony.

So they did not hesitate to offer the devil fruit they had finally obtained, and followed the child in the name of subordinates.

Vergo remembered this matter.

But what he couldn't figure out was...

Why did he suddenly become a navy when he was obviously a pirate in the past?

Or a particularly responsible navy.

Whether it is training or mission, I always rush to the front line.

Do I seem to have a goal?

An extremely firm goal that must be achieved.

It is this goal that has become the driving force for my continuous efforts.

During this period, Torrebol and the child appeared in front of me many times.

They burned towns and looted merchant ships.

And when I desperately chased them, there were always only some pirates who had no ability to resist, and the rest was a pile of ashes.

Even when I was rewarded for these small and medium-sized contributions, I always felt a sense of panic in my heart.

It seems that I am afraid

Afraid of being discovered?

This fear continued until I became the base chief of the G5 branch.

That child has grown up and even established such a behemoth as the Don Quixote family!

Even burning, killing and looting in front of me!

On the one hand, I ignored and indulged their behavior, and on the other hand, I was particularly aware of their behavior.

Why?

Vergo felt that he must have been thinking about this question before, but he suddenly forgot it.

His memory has always been not very good.

But when the Yasha kicked him, the nearly transparent thin line cut through his Armament Haki defense and cut into his flesh...

Vergo finally remembered!

Why did he join the Navy?

It was because of this fruit!

It was obviously the devil fruit that he and Trebol found together, but they gave this fruit that should have belonged to them to the child without any conditions.

And he joined the Navy just to take revenge on them!

Let them know that this fruit should belong to him, Vergo!

And the child at that time was the Yasha Doflamingo in front of him.

After figuring out this trick, Vergo found that all his past memories could be connected.

Why did he have such great motivation?

It was to achieve the revenge goal in his heart.

And why was he always afraid?

It was because Vergo knew that it was impossible to fight against the rapidly growing child and the family behind him with his status and strength in the navy.

So he endured it!

Even though he had already taken the position of vice admiral, and even though the Don Quixote family was not far from his jurisdiction.

He maintained great restraint, while condoning their evil behavior, he also had all the evidence of their evil deeds in his hands.

For one day.

To be able to give this family a fatal blow!

"What a pity, I was clearly aiming at the heart just now."

He whispered with some regret.

For some reason, I aimed at Dover's heart, but it deviated at the moment of the shot.

After so many years of forbearance, it actually failed!

Still not firm enough.

But such a great opportunity in front of me cannot be easily let go.

Even if Dover used his ability to sew up the penetrating wound on his chest, Vergo believed that his attack must have caused a lot of damage.

At least the armed color domineering was attached to it.

He pressed one hand on the iron plate, supporting himself, and pulled his body out of the pit.

In the other hand, he was holding a completely black bamboo.

There was a trace of blood foam at the corner of his mouth.

His particularly tough eyes were fixed on Dover.

He wanted revenge!

"Look..."

Bucky's body was still splitting.

This was not because of Dover's parasitic thread, but because he had the ability to split continuously.

In other words, his hanging posture just now was just to tease the firebird in front of him.

This can be seen from Dover's particularly gloomy face.

The effect is quite good.

"The simpler the person, the stronger his execution ability."

Bucky said as he pulled out these almost transparent thin threads.

Dover's face was as gloomy as water, and his index finger and ring finger were still pulling, but those parasitic threads were completely unable to tie up his body that was split into a nearly powdered state.

A little further away, Vergo, who didn't know what had happened, still had an irreconcilable look on his face.

"What are you going to do next, my Lord Half-Dragon?"

"My subordinates who were once extremely loyal, like family, suddenly regard you as an enemy. Is this the first or the last one?"

Bucky's sarcastic voice kept piercing Dover's body like a knife.

"Make a... deal."

Dover gritted his teeth and tried to ignore the other person's words like "half-dragon".

The words seemed to pop out from between the teeth.

He really values ​​Vergo, including Torebol, Pica, and Diamanti. They were his initial team members and they followed him all the way from the trough.

"Guys like you probably want to see the world turn upside down, right?"

"Since you know my past, you should also know that I am particularly disgusted with the world ruled by those guys..."

Tianyaksha does have a heroic spirit.

Even if the clown keeps jumping around in front of his face, he can still take up and let go of the things he cares about.

"Sounds interesting."

Bucky smiled, his tone seemed to be moved.

"And there is no conflict of interest between us."

Dover followed.

He looked gloomy.

No matter what the future holds, at least at this moment, he does have the intention to cooperate.

Vergo is important to his current plans.

Punk Hassad's experiments, in particular, require a large number of children.

If Virgo hadn't been covering up the navy, it would have been very easy to be exposed.

At the same time, he was also thinking in his mind...

The ability to split the fruit into pieces can affect cognition.

It should be related to ability awakening.

But such ability is certainly not completely free, just like when one of his subordinates ate the sugar from the Childlike Fruit.

It also has the ability to modify people's cognition.

But once a person with abilities loses consciousness, his abilities will also lose their effect.
