The devil has never made any secret of his admiration for the clown.
A dark red shadow climbed up from Bucky's back, without any facial features or limbs, like a swirling flame.
But it also makes people feel that this should be the form of a devil.
"Is the key to the awakening of the fruit's power lies in the devil rather than the fruit?"
Hawkins on the side felt the power of the devil even more clearly.
Just like the domineering and domineering symbol of the king, the demonic aura also has the ability to shock the soul.
But one is a commanding view, and the other is fear and fear from the heart.
It's like the fear that comes from deep in my heart has no reason.
At least this is the performance of the Kabaji trio.
At this time, Bucky frightened them more from the bottom of their hearts than the fish-man face above the ship that was so big that they couldn't even see the side.
If I wasn't really familiar with Bucky, I would feel at ease being with someone.
The three of them would probably faint immediately as if they were encountering Overlord's Haki.
But what Hawkins is more concerned about is the meaning behind the word awakening, the awakening of the devil fruit's ability. Is the focus more on the ability or the devil?
Is it possible to awaken by developing one's ability to a certain level, or does it have to meet certain conditions?
Those who have awakened their fruit abilities are absolutely rare in the sea. Hawkins has only seen one Bucky now.
"Someone has said that the key to awakening fruit abilities lies in the matching of body and mind with abilities."
Bucky turned his head and relayed Teacher Kai's teachings.
"But I think this ability can also be regarded as a demon."
"You can think about it, what does the devil symbolized by the scarecrow expect? What is a match?"
At least from Bucky's own experience.
The word awakening refers more to the awakening of the devil.
From the solitary confinement of the Shampoo Islands, demons began to emerge.
And when the Dragon Man died in his hands, the devil really began to awaken, and the sign was that Bucky's splitting ability could affect people other than himself.
It can be understood that the devil residing in the fruit has truly awakened.
Because the fun and confusion, similar to the prayers symbolized by the devil, woke up spontaneously.
Every time Bucky played to please himself, he also pleased the devil.
This positive feedback can be seen from several changes in the demon form.
During the time in the Shampoo Islands, the devil had just awakened, and apart from its abilities, it had not changed at all.
Bucky was still disappointed at the time.
When they returned to the Holy Land game, Bucky began to feel that the devil seemed to be alive.
Recently, when encountering Doflamingo in the Mist Sea Battle, the pressure of the Overlord Color made the demon truly show its power as the Overlord Color.
Some resemble some kind of chaotic evil evil god.
It's just that Bucky never thought of following the "evil god's" wishes. He always followed his own wishes.
But this intention is an incomparable appetite for the "evil god".
Then let the "evil god" also work hard to awaken his own power.
Yes, wake up.
Bucky felt that this word was more appropriate.
Maybe he didn't feel anything himself, but Smoker felt it personally.
Although Bucky hasn't exercised much, the strength his body can exert has undergone a complete qualitative change compared to when he was in Rogge Town.
But it doesn’t mean there is no exercise at all.
After all, every time you use the six postures, you are constantly squeezing the already torn body.
Maybe with a few more games, the demon will become more active.
Will he compete with himself for his body then?
Bucky thought with some anticipation.
"The mind and body are adapted to the devil..."
Hawkins was thoughtful and took out a card with a scarecrow pattern from his arms.
"Scarecrow demon...symbol?"
Bucky just pointed out that it would be more meaningful for the other party to come up with this symbol on his own.
He raised his head again.
The dark red light and shadow of him made even Mianjin a little scared.
"Can you send us to the Dragon Palace Kingdom?"
Bucky felt that his attitude at this time must be very gentle. Even the gangsters who robbed pharmacies in Gotham did not have such a good attitude.
"....No, no problem."
Mianjin shrank his head in fear, and the sudden movement caused a surge in the surrounding sea currents.
Looks like the guy with the beard...
No, it's scarier.
He meditated in his heart and explained:
"But there are pirates outside the kingdom, and they won't let anyone in."
Although outsiders usually enter the Ryugu Kingdom, the kingdom's "Navy Army" will also conduct entry inspections.
But Mianjin didn't care at all, those fishmen were all his juniors.
But pirates are different.
"Very strong."
He added, "But it's not as scary as you."
At least Mianjin didn't feel as terrifying a power in those pirates as Bucky did at the moment.
Bucky moved his eyes to Hawkins and Kabaji again.
A few of them had just left Fish-Man Island not long ago.
So taking them with me is also a bit like a guide.
Hawkins pondered for a while, "When I entered Fish-Man Island from Shampoo Land, I encountered people from the army, but it was nothing."
What he meant was that those were just trash fish and posed no threat.
"On the contrary, when we are about to leave Fish-Man Island, we will be blocked by the Beast Pirates."
"I broke out with Kidd and the others."
"But the Beast Pirates are more interested in them."
Hawkins' intention was obvious. He was breaking out from Fish-Man Island. When entering this area, at least Hawkins and the others did not encounter any obstacles.
"What about Vander Deken?"
Bucky raised his head and asked Mianjin.
"The captain is hiding."
"Then let's go and play with him, shall we?"
"…Play?"
Mianjin hesitated for a while. The captain had told him not to reveal his location to outsiders, and the people in the Dragon King's Palace had been trying to find the captain.
After all, for eight years, the captain had been tirelessly courting the White Star Princess of the mermaid tribe.
"Okay, I'll take you there!"
I'm bored out of my mind after hanging around alone for so long!
It would be even better if I could play with the captain.
Mianjinjian pulled forward, and the current suddenly surged.
The yellowish light illuminated a large piece of aqua-blue sky that towered over the ship. Kabaji and the others looked up for a while before suddenly realizing that this was the body of the monster.
His palms are webbed, his legs are short, and his head and head take up most of it, and you can vaguely see fins on his back.
Mianjin stretched out another hand and carefully held the boat in his hand.
Following the sinking current, I kicked my feet.
"Who is Vander Deken?"
Jacques couldn't help his curiosity and asked Hawkins.
There must be such a big monster crew, and he seems to know Mr. Bucky, so he must be quite a character, right?
"A pervert."
After thinking for a while, Hawkins answered seriously.
This is a consensus on Fish-Man Island.
