Chapter 26 Secret Technique: Mouth Escape (Please read~)
Bucky the Clown, a man who is both funny and lucky!
As a member of Pirate King Roger's ship, he does not have the talent and courage like Shanks, an intern at the same time.
In addition, the Devil Fruit limited his most proud underwater ability, as well as a series of changes such as Roger's death and Shanks' cowardice...
As a result, Bucky the Clown, who was already a middle-aged uncle, degenerated into a pirate in the East China Sea.
but……
Just because he's not strong doesn't mean Bucky is useless.
Although I didn’t follow the follow-up plot of Pirates deeply, when Chihong saw Lao Sha stepping on her feet in the UP main video, she still loudly announced that she would participate in the fight for [one piece]...
The red heart was inevitably moved!
In a way, Bucky has an aura that is not inferior to Luffy.
Just by winning all the way, a Yonko will come out...
This kind of luck is indeed not comparable to ordinary people.
A great man once said: Unite all forces that can be united.
Red is convinced of this.
Therefore, for a valuable pirate like Bucky, he hopes to control it in his own hands.
After all, the clown is not only synonymous with funny, but he can also be the representative of all cards...
That trump card that decides the victory!
…
…
"Kid, tell me, what kind of cooperation do you want to discuss!?"
In the base of the Clown Pirates, after dispersing a group of brainless pirates, Bucky sat on top with his right-hand men Mochi and Kabaji, and asked Chi Hong below.
In fact, Mochi and Kabaji, who were in their right minds, had already realized the danger of Red and did not want to participate in this meeting at all.
But under Bucky's majesty, they were forced to stay here.
Opposite Bucky is a funny red reception table.
The table is laid out with fruits and food, as well as a jug of sake.
Chihong sat at the table, enjoying VIP treatment.
Zoro and Nami, like Mochi and Kabaji, were placed on either side of Red like the left and right hands.
As for the real captain of the Straw Hats?
This kid is outside now, mingling with the pirates of the Clown Pirates, and happily participating in the celebration banquet of "Captain Bucky is a subordinate of the Pirate King".
It is estimated that by this time, he had already inserted the chopsticks into his nose and performed his best trick for everyone.
"Don't be such a brat, it's too rude, Bucky-senpai."
Chi Hong, who was sitting upright, smiled slightly, raised the wine glass in front of him and took a sip, then introduced himself:
"You can call me Chihong, this is my name."
"Next to me are Zoro and Nami. As for the funny one outside..."
Red's tone suddenly changed, and she sighed: "As much as I hate to admit it, that guy is our captain, and his name is Monkey D. Luffy."
"D!?" Bucky frowned slightly and grasped the key point instantly.
After all, he is still a crew member on Roger's ship. Even though he has been wandering around the East China Sea, his knowledge is far beyond that of many strong men in the New World.
And Chihong, who had long expected Bucky to react like this, immediately grinned and said meaningfully:
"That's right, Bucky-senpai."
"Luffy, like Pirate King Roger, is a member of the D clan with the title of [Natural Enemy of Gods]!"
"I think Senior Bucky, who is on Roger's crew, should be very aware of the value of this information."
"It's clear."
Bucky's eyes wandered for a moment, as if he was remembering something.
But soon, he smacked his lips indifferently:
"But, so what if we are members of the D clan."
"Throughout the ages, countless D clans have appeared on the sea. If you think you can stir up the sea with just one name and bloodline..."
"That's how naive you are!"
"Indeed." Chi Hong did not refute Bucky's words, but immediately afterwards, he directly added more information and grinned at Bucky:
"But Bucky-senpai, if I say that Shanks has never become the Pirate King, it is precisely because he was waiting for Luffy to appear..."
"How should you respond!?"
"…………"
"What did you say!?"
Bucky was stunned for a few seconds, and then the head with the big red nose suddenly separated from the body and flew in front of Red.
"Kid, you better know what you're talking about!?"
"Don't think that if you have the power of the Devil Fruit, you can really control me!!!"
Two white-gloved palms flew over and grabbed the red collar fiercely.
Obviously, some topics are enough for Bucky to break through his inner fear and speak up.
But Chihong pushed Bucky's head away in disgust to prevent his saliva from spraying on her body, and then said slowly:
"Of course I know what I'm talking about, Bucky-senpai."
"After all, I came here this time with full sincerity. I want to invite Senior Bucky to bring your pirate group to join the Straw Hats!"
"Hey! Kid! Don't go too far for me!!!"
Even though he was pinched by red palms, Bucky still said with a crooked mouth in a bad tone:
"You want me to join your fledgling little pirate group!?"
"This is impossible!!!"
Without any surprise, Buggy directly and angrily rejected Red.
This was because Red said something that interested him, otherwise, he would have stabbed Red with a knife based on this insulting invitation.
However, facing Buggy's refusal without leaving any room for negotiation, Red just smiled indifferently:
"Nothing is impossible, Senior Buggy."
"Remember the day when Roger was executed, when you broke up with Shanks?!"
"Don't you want to know why Shanks suddenly changed his temper and made you so disappointed!?"
"You..."
Baki suddenly turned his head and looked into Red's eyes that seemed to control everything.
"Why do you know this!?" He asked in disbelief with a trembling voice.
Red continued to smile: "Of course I know!"
"After all..."
He slowly stretched out his finger and tapped the corner of his eye twice.
"I have a pair of eyes that can see the past and the future!"
"..."
Baki stared at the red eyes and asked:
"Is that... your fruit ability? Or something else!?"
In the pirate world, there are indeed many inexplicable powers.
Some come from devil fruits, and some are inherent in the creatures themselves.
So even if someone can see the past and the future, Buggy is not too surprised.
He just wants to know the truth from Red's mouth, what is it!
Knowing this, Red did not answer Buggy's question directly, but just raised the corner of his mouth:
"You can understand it this way."
"In short, Senior Buggy, I know a lot about Roger, about Shanks... and you!"
"Do you... want to hear it?"
"…………"
Baki's eyes flashed a few times.
After a moment of silence, his head suddenly flew back and returned to its original position.
It must be said that the eyes of the young kid in front of him were too confident, so that Buggy already believed that he really knew something.
As for Shanks, he did have many unsolved mysteries, and he still hadn't figured it out until today.
"I want to see what you can say!"
Baki's eyes flashed, and he snorted at Chihong.
He immediately saw Chihong's mouth corners raised, revealing an ambiguous smile, and then looked up and said:
"Senior Buggy, I know you have always hated Shanks for causing you to eat the devil fruit and lose the important treasure map."
"But in fact..."
"The real reason you hate him is because you saw that he, who was loved by the captain, gave up the competition for the Pirate King, so you have the idea of being disappointed, right!?"
"Humph!"
Baki snorted, neither admitting nor denying.
But from his obviously nervous look, Chihong's words undoubtedly hit his heart.
At the same time, this also made him believe more that Chihong has special abilities.
After all, Shanks could not tell outsiders about these things.
And then, Chihong's words made Buggy's heart tremble suddenly as if it was being played with by an invisible big hand.
"But Senior Buggy probably doesn't know..."
"The reason why Shanks did this is because he listened to Captain Roger's advice, right!?"
"What did you say!?" Buggy stood up again excitedly, holding the handles on both sides tightly with both hands.
But Red continued:
"Roger, the Pirate King who opened the Great Pirate Era with his life, actually knew very well..."
"This world doesn't need the next Pirate King at all!"
"That's why he entrusted everything to Shanks before he died."
"It is precisely because of this heavy responsibility that Shanks has been playing the pirate house game that Senior Buggy said for so many years, protecting more weak people."
"However, Senior Buggy, you don't know that Shanks has been waiting for an opportunity..."
Red stared at Buggy with eyes as hot as the sun, opened his mouth, and said slowly:
"An opportunity to completely overthrow the World Government and the rule of the Celestial Dragons!!!"
