Chapter 142: Buggy: More powerful than my Buggy bullet?
Zoro picked up the fruit and immediately triggered the contract mission.

[Contract Mission (1/5)]

Mission content: Defeat the King of the Sea lurking near the dock.

Mission Reward: Ghost Affinity Lv.1 (White)

"Ghost spirit?"

Zoro frowned. The mission reward sounded like it had nothing to do with kendo, which was a pity.

The king of the nearshore refers to some huge and strange fish that often appear in shallow seas.

To ordinary people, it is an irresistible behemoth, but to Zoro, it is just a slightly larger piece of meat. He once encountered it and chopped it into pieces and sold it to the auction house.

"King of the Near Sea, set off!"

Luffy cheered excitedly and pulled Zoro and Nami towards the pier.

……

the other side,
The Buggy Pirates also noticed the special nature of the Contract Fruit.

The scarred deputy captain Mochi shows Buggy his new weapon.

A taming whip.

Bucky narrowed his eyes, not noticing anything unusual about the taming whip, and said perfunctorily, "Very well, where did you go just now to end up like this?"

"There is a dense forest east of Orange Town. Liki and I followed the guidance of the fruit and found an unmined iron vein. Then we got this taming whip as a reward."

Mochi held the taming whip with excitement on his face, as if he had obtained a rare treasure.

But Bucky's eyes lit up when he heard about the iron ore vein, and he asked, "You found the iron ore vein, where is it?"

Even if it is a low-quality iron ore vein, it can be exchanged for a good price of several million Baileys at the auction.

Mochi scratched his head in embarrassment and said, "When the mission was completed, the iron ore vein disappeared and could not be found."

"Are you teasing me?"

After hearing the lie that couldn't even fool a child, Bucky's face darkened terribly.

"it is true!"

Mochi was afraid that Buggy would be angry, so he quickly explained: "The contract fruit will take away the mission item."

Buggy was so angry that he laughed. He wondered if his vice-captain had water in his head. He said, "You mean... an iron ore vein worth millions of Baileys, in exchange for a broken whip?"

"This is no ordinary taming whip."

"Really? Then let me see what makes it special."

Bucky suppressed his anger and waited for Mochi's explanation.

Snapped.

A crisp whip sounded.

Licky, who was whipped by the taming whip, howled, and there was a hint of excitement in his voice.

"That's it?"

The corners of Bucky's mouth twitched, and just as he was about to speak, he was shocked by what happened next.

After being whipped by the taming whip, the male lion Leakey's hair suddenly exploded, looking very scary. The most important thing is...

I don’t know if it’s an illusion,

Why does it feel like Lion Liki has grown in size?
"That's right, Captain Buggy!"

Mochi stroked the whip tenderly and boasted: "The beast will become stronger after being whipped by the whip."

"Moreover, according to the information in my mind, the Taming Whip is only a novice weapon. If you complete all the contract tasks and become a player of the reincarnation game, treasure, power, rights, and all your wishes will come true!"

"everything!?"

Bucky's eyes almost popped out.
He wanted to reprimand Mochi, but he looked at the taming whip and then at the lion Leakey, who had grown in size.

He took out the last remaining contract fruit with doubt, and the same text was still in his mind, which required him to hand over 5 million Baileys.

"If it's different from what you said, you're dead, Mochi... and Liki!"

Buggy was so distressed that he jumped up and down, and while suppressing the pain of losing his money, he took out a heavy cloth bag from the pirate tent.

Five million Baileys.

Even for the great pirate Buggy, it is not easy to pay such a huge sum of money. After all, being a pirate is a job that takes a lot of blood and sweat. At any time, you may be swept to the bottom of the sea by wind and waves, or be captured by the navy, or even be killed by other pirate groups. Saving money is impossible. Enjoyment is the main purpose of pirates.

but,

The changes in Lion Lige and Nami's attempt to take the fruit with her when she escaped did make Buggy realize that the Contract Fruit was not simple.

"All wishes come true?"

Bucky's heart was pounding, and his wish was to rob all the treasures in the world.

Red-haired Shanks, that stupid guy, is obviously a pirate, but he has no interest in treasure. Can such a pirate still be called a pirate?
boom.

The bag was suddenly empty.

A strange memory suddenly flooded into Bucky's mind.

Some knowledge about metal manufacturing, elements and power, which eventually merged into a large category of metal and gunpowder knowledge.

[Armor-Piercing Bullet Manufacturing Lv.1]: Consumes physical strength to produce bullets with extremely strong penetrating power.

Tip: You can bring your own materials to reduce physical exertion.

Originating from the celestial sharpshooters in the sky and ocean, some of them have excellent understanding and skills in bullet manufacturing. They regard guns and bullets as their life and are able to manufacture powerful bullets with various functions.

"Captain Buggy..."

The chief of staff, Kabaji, who was riding a unicycle, looked at the captain who was standing there in a daze, feeling a little nervous.

Then, with tears in his eyes, he thrust his sword at Mochi, but it was stopped by the claws of the lion Liki.

"Damn Mochi, he actually dared to deceive Captain Buggy. Now Captain Buggy has become a fool after eating the poisonous fruit. What should we do?!"

Mochi was startled, scratched his animal-like white hair, and angrily cursed: "Idiot, Captain Buggy didn't eat the fruit at all!"

"That's your fault too!"

"Asshole, did you screw up your brain from riding a unicycle?"

"Shut up, everyone!"

Listening to the noise in his ears, Bucky shouted with an unpleasant expression, and then slowly digested the memories in his mind.

Suddenly he rushed into the tent where supplies were stored, swung his dagger, and pried open the box of high explosives containing the raw materials for making the Pakistani bomb.

Two minutes later,

A strangely shaped magazine was made, which contained not regular bullets but small daggers.

"Bring the gun!"

A flintlock rifle was handed to Bucky.

Bucky was nervous and tentatively put the finished magazine close to the flintlock.

The flintlock rifle and magazine, which were obviously incompatible, were strangely integrated together.

Bucky aimed at a thick wall and pulled the trigger.

boom.

A dagger flashing with a cold light shot out from the barrel of the gun, the handle popped out, and the pure metal dagger blade moved forward, dragging a long and narrow air wave.

In the middle of the rock wall, there was a mark left by a dagger.

Mochi leaned over and asked curiously, "Captain Buggy, is this your new ability?"

It doesn't look that great, and is only slightly more powerful than a flintlock rifle.

"and many more……"

Mochi suddenly widened his eyes and looked through the holes.

Not only the wall was pierced,

After the dagger pierced through the wall, it actually penetrated the messy room and furniture, went straight out of the building, and nailed to the wall across the street.

"Hahahaha, is this an armor-piercing bullet?"

Buggy laughed heartily, his eyes fixed on the new mission of the Contract Fruit.

It turned out to be true!
This kind of power can even penetrate steel, and the armor-piercing bullet can become more penetrating and have a faster rate of fire as its level increases!
"My fellows, a new treasure has appeared. How can we continue to stand still? Follow me!"
