34 chapter 34

From the piles of the destroyed platform, some meat piles started flying to the air and gathering itself, who appeared was Buggy unharmed. Buggy's head left his body and flew in the air.

"Fool, I have eaten Split-split fruit, You can't kill me "

Even if Lucas was stunned to see something like this happen in front of his eyes, his face still had that cold expression:" Good then, I still have some anger left in me ".

"Fool, I will kill you" Buggy was beyond angry, this teen came here, destroyed his base and killed his crew. Even if Buggy killed him, his heart won't calm down, he will kill him slowly and teach him what pain is. Buggy took six knives from his waist and put them between his fingers, each hand is holding three knives. Buggy's hands left his body and flew toward Lucas.

Nami who was watching from this side was really shocked after all, devils fruits aren't that known in east blue, and this is her first time seeing a devil fruit user, but she could keep her calm when she remembers bizarre creatures, such fish men.

Lucas didn't show much shock, as the hands came close to him, he held his rapier and waved it multi times. Since Lucas is master level when it comes to swordsmanship, The knives were cut into multi pieces along with Buggy's hands as they touched the black blade. Lucas wanted to get rid of the knives since he knows that there is a possibility that one of them may catch him off guard later.

"ASSHOLE, HOW DARE YOU" Buggy yelled in an annoying tone, his hands are fine, but he lost his weapon. without his knives, he can't do deadly sneaky attacks, he originally wanted to trick Lucas and hide one of his hands so he can use it later to stab him in back.

Lucas didn't seem to be affected by the provoking tone of Buggy, he used his stealth footwork to vanish from his place. *Whoosh*. he appeared behind Buggy without him noticing.

"fast" Buggy eyes went wide, he didn't believe that Lucas vanished since he knows some people who can move very fast without any technique, he turned his head left and right to look for him.

'monsters... One can split himself and the other can move very fast' Nami saw it all, her jaw almost dropped but it didn't touch the ground.

Lucas who was behind Buggy wanted to test a theory, he lifted his sword and waved it a few times cutting Buggy's head to 6 pieces, even his brain didn't stay one piece. As his head was cut, one of Buggy's eyes floated and noticed Lucas, then the parts gathered itself and formed the head again.

"Bastard, I'll eventually kill you" Buggy's upper body flew up, he made a fist that it flew toward Lucas.

'even when his brain isn't connected, it can work perfectly as one unit' Lucas seemed to understand how Buggy's ability works, he held the hand that was flying toward him with one hand, then he put his sword back to his belt.

"Killing you actually is easier than beating you," Lucas said as he applied some pressure on Buggy's hand.

"Ayy ayy, Leave my hand " Buggy felt pain from his hand, even though that his flesh and bones can't be damaged, even if they got shattered and broke, they can split and rejoin again, however, he would still feel the pain.

*Woosh*

"Useless " Lucas left the hand then he vanished and appeared next buggy's upper part, he lifted his fists as he decided to use his strongest boxing skill «hundred Crack fist: unleash a barrage of fists that hold full body's strength and mass behind each punch.

Lucas started punching buggy with all of his might, his fists made tens of afterimages as he was punching his body, in 4 seconds, a hundred punch was landed and the clown's upper body was split to parts

"Argh" Buggy felt unmatchable pain, his bones were broken, his internal organs were damaged badly and his flesh was shattered, however, as he landed on the ground, his parts gathered itself slowly:" Hey, this is painful"

'Seems that I found a new exercise' Lucas felt his heartbeat very fast, the boxing skill that he just used took a lot of stamina, after all, it was a hundred punch that holds all of his mass and strength in each punch and it was landed in 4 seconds, his arms felt numb, but this was good news, after all, when it comes to getting stronger, the thing to always look for is physical exercises that have effect.

"Listen, no matter how damage you apply on me, I'll gather again, " Buggy said, he felt that his body is screaming from pain however he made a cold face, his endurance is limited and he may pass out if he got beaten for long period, but he can't show it. He lifted his hands, and this time, each part of his body split to pieces and flew in the air. But at that moment he noticed an orange-haired girl holding a huge bag on her back, at that moment, Buggy's face turned ugly, does this girl think she can steal his treasure and go away.

Buggy parts flew around Lucas trying to avoid him and went behind him, Lucas turned his head to see where Buggy is going.

"hey you, give my treasure back, "Buggy said

*scream* Nami noticed Buggy coming toward her, she didn't leave the bag despite being scared and ran while yelling "Lucas... Help me

*Whoosh* Lucas vanished.

"HEY STO... " Buggy yelled as he flew after her. However, at that moment, his vision turned dark and his parts stopped flying.

Nami turned her head to see Lucas holding Buggy's head and using a hand to close on his eyes, she stopped and looked at Lucas with puppy eyes.

"what is happening " buggy can't control his body if he doesn't see anything, he felt something closing on his eyes and it took him a bit of time to understand what is happening "leave me "

Lucas who was holding buggy's head took his hand from his eyes and used it to close on his nose.

"what are you planning to do, " Buggy said with an arrogant expression, but it was bad that he can't split his head using his will.

"Usually I would feel pity to kill someone in such way… But in your case, I don't feel pity at all…" Lucas then hugged buggy's face to his chest and used the other hand to close on his mouth.

Buggy suddenly found that he can't breathe, he ordered his other parts to come toward him, but Lucas was so fast and went away before he could connect himself with his body. Lucas earlier discovered that even if buggy can split into multi pieces, his body is still one unit, and it transfers the oxygen the same way it transfers the pain to the brain.

"jghghjgh" Buggy struggled, even when he tried to play dirty and lick and bit Lucas's hand, it didn't work.

"Just close your eyes, your pain shall end soon," Lucas said to Buggy.

Buggy's part started collapsing to the ground and act like he was sinking, he felt his vision getting darker and darker, the strangling feeling was fading and being replaced by a warm feeling, his face turned blue, he closed his eyes as they felt so heavy, his body's parts stopped moving as he lost consciousness.

[Ding. Defeating pirate captain Buggy: +5000 accumulated XP].

[Ding, the host has a fruit that matches Buggy's devil fruit inside the storage]

[Do you want to extract the devil fruit (y/n)]

Lucas let buggy's head fall to the ground when he heard the notification, he was shocked. The system can take the devil fruits after defeating its owner. This can make him reconsider his plans.

Buggy's face started regaining its color slowly since he was only one second away from dying.

[Ding, Split-split fruit is inside the host's storage]

Lucas then noticed a fruit with a weird shape appears inside his storage.

"Lucas looks," Nami said with a horrified tone as she pointed to Buggy.

"what!" Lucas turned his head and he almost vomited, he isn't a serial killer so this picture was so ugly to him. The parts of Buggy that were originally separate started bleeding, on the ground he could see stomach, hearts and other organs. he lowered his head to look down and what he saw buggy's head bleeding. It seems when he lost his fruit when his part was separated, he lost his ability that keeps him alive when he isn't one unit.

"I'll wait… in the ship " Nami couldn't hold her self from vomiting, even if she saw some dead people before, it is a different case when you see an ugly corpse. she turned and ran away back to the ship.

Lucas could keep his calm, he found a stick and used it to touch the head of Buggy and stored it. Then he stored the rest of his crew and left to his ship.
