Pirate: I, Buggy, am the Emperor, the Emperor of the Clown King!

Chapter 289 (Free)

Below the Sky Island.

The waters near Jaya Island.

Dark Tornado Mountain stood before everyone.

It rises from the sea level and extends to the clouds above the horizon, like a giant white pillar that pierces through the heavens and the earth.

If it were just a pillar, that would be fine, but the problem is that this pillar isn't pure white.

When clouds get thick enough, they appear black, and light cannot penetrate them.

The closer you get to it, the more you can feel the terrifying aura it contains. The black mist churns and roars, like countless faces rising and falling in the clouds, mouths agape, emitting silent screams.

Dark Tornado Mountain truly lives up to its name.

Even Im was silent for a moment upon seeing this.

After all, although people usually think that Im is a bit senile, Im's aesthetic sense is normal.

Compared to things like Dark Tornado Mountain, Im's aesthetic preferences lean more towards gardens filled with flowers and plants.

Lord Im's aesthetic sense is no different from that of a normal person.

The Dark Tornado Mountain that Bucky deliberately created seemed quite absurd to everyone, making it seem like a major villain from an anime or novel.

—But thinking about it carefully, Bucky's actions aren't much different from those of the main villains in anime movies.

—However, in those anime, movies, and novels, villains like Buggy usually lose.

—But obviously the current situation is not necessarily the case.

"Is he even human?" Shamrock stood on the deck, looking up at the pillar of clouds that pierced the sky and sea, feeling like he was questioning the meaning of life.

"Don't ask such a stupid question." Junzi stood beside him. "What we need to do now is follow them."

The atmosphere aboard the Thousand Sunny was extremely oppressive.

Luffy stood at the bow of the ship, the brim of his straw hat shaking violently in the wind.

Zoro sat cross-legged on the deck, three swords placed side by side on his knees, his head down, his expression unreadable.

Only the two members of the Straw Hat Pirates are qualified to fight this battle; the rest should not bother.

Jabba leaned against the mast, keeping company with his two promising juniors.

Kuzan stood at the cabin entrance, his eyes closed, lost in thought.

Akainu and Kizaru stood side by side on the ship's side; their relationship was actually quite good.

In this respect, it must be said that among the three admirals of the Navy, Kuzan still couldn't get along with the other two.

Kaido sat at the stern of the ship.

Kaido didn't look at anyone; his gaze was fixed on the sky—his daughter was there, and so were his enemies.

"Is everything ready?" Kaido suddenly spoke up. Now it was his turn to step in; otherwise, how would everyone fly up?

Among those present, only Kaido and Loki could carry everyone with them.

But we can't have Loki transform into a dragon and carry everyone up there, that would be too inconvenient.

Therefore, the best option for Kaido to transform into a dragon is to take the entire ship with him.

Kaido's Flame Cloud can carry Onigashima along with him, so carrying a ship is no problem for him.

No one objected to Kaido's question.

Kaido then jumped off the ship.

Azure Dragon form.

Flaming clouds coiled around the dragon's body like living things, with crimson flames and dark blue lightning leaping between its scales.

"Hurry up."

Kaido's voice boomed from the dragon's mouth, and fiery clouds spread in all directions, enveloping the entire Thousand Sunny.

These strange, flame-shaped clouds can burn like normal flames, or they can lift things up and fly without causing harm.

The Azure Dragon Fruit is actually quite amazing.

Then the dragon's body suddenly leaped upwards.

The ship took off.

Those present were all strong individuals, and even though the ship was shaking violently, it had little effect on them; they were all as if they were nailed to the ground.

Lord Im sat on the top of the ship, quietly watching the approaching Dark Tornado Mountain.

Im thought he was already very strong and had many amazing abilities, but he never thought he could create something like the Dark Tornado Mountain.

If it's done by relying on Devil Fruit abilities, that's one thing, but if it's done by pure raw power, that's terrifying.

The closer you get to the clouds, the lower the temperature.

White fog surged in from all directions, completely obscuring the view.

Next came lightning.

Purple-white arcs of electricity leaped wildly through the clouds, like countless snakes hidden in the mist.

Several of the attacks struck the ship directly, but were blocked by the fiery clouds that Kaido had previously wrapped around the hull, exploding into rings of sparks.

In this respect, although Bucky drew a lot of clouds from the sky to form the Dark Tornado Mountain, there were simply too many clouds to use them all.

However, Pakistan's drastic action did indeed create a hole in the clouds.

A large portion of the white sea in the sky has been removed, making it look like a donut.

There is a pillar in the middle of the donut.

In short, it's in this strange shape now.

The savior team led by Im is now targeting the island of gods atop this cloud pillar.

There are also some people on God's Island.

Beside the mechanical dragon Wapol, Nami gazed at the distant clouds, sensing that many people were approaching.

After eating the Rumble-Rumble Fruit, Nami's Observation Haki range became ridiculously wide, allowing her to sense targets from a great distance.

This "distance" certainly includes not only front, back, left, and right, but also up and down.

In terms of vertical distance, the Sky Island is only located at an altitude of 10,000 meters.

Since it was only a distance of 10,000 meters, she could certainly sense it.

A cold wind blew, causing Nami's long orange hair to flutter to one side.

Buggy prefers Nami with long hair to her previous short hair.

Nami's gaze pierced through the thick fog, fixed on the white sea of ​​clouds, behind which—it was coming.

"Suddenly staring over there—can you sense it?" Momousagi only knew that Nami's Observation Haki had a very wide range, but she didn't know exactly how wide.

"Yes, there are many of them, and they are very strong—although there are many people I don't know, they are all powerful individuals," Nami said frankly.

"I wonder how today will go." Momousagi's tone was somewhat disappointed as she said this.

You should know that when Momousagi was fooling around with Buggy, she had a political mission: to keep an eye on Buggy.

At the time, I thought I could get some benefits from Bucky, and by keeping an eye on Bucky, I could consider it a mission accomplished.

So now we've discovered what it means to be watching Bucky?

They were completely played by Bucky.

Rabbit Hair didn't discover Bucky's real plans or what he really wanted to do; she was completely played by Bucky.

Nami didn't answer, she just sighed softly.

Given the current situation, what else can be said?

"You two—" Yamato's voice came from behind, hesitant, "Should we stop them this time?"

"The captain's strength is still increasing," Nami glanced back at her, "If you dare to disrupt the captain's journey again—your fate will be grim."

As Nami spoke, she glanced at Boa Hancock. Boa Hancock's fate—well, although she still retains her human form, she's now just a toy in Charlia Palace.

The overdose of hallucinogens has permanently damaged Boa Hancock's mind.

Moreover, unlike Boa Hancock who is humanoid, Yamato can transform into a dog—Buggy will definitely have even more creative ideas.

"————" Yamato was speechless.

All schemes are meaningless in the face of absolute force.
