Chapter 351: Fireman

Name:Transcended as Lord Buggy Author:
Chapter 351: Fireman

Leo eats the Flame Flame Fruit and the devil fruit is just as disgusting as ever. Buggy tells him to eat the whole thing if he wants to get all its power even though he doesn't need to. But Buggy wants Leo to learn that to receive power, he needs to go through pain even if it's just eating a very disgusting fruit.

Bellemere who knows that Leo doesn't need to eat the whole thing also stays silent. She knows it's Buggy's way of teaching their son that not every power is sweet. This is also a good lesson for their daughters who immediately feel relieved that they refused to eat devil fruit.

After Leo finishes eating the Flame Flame Fruit with great difficulty, Buggy pats his head and praises him. Leo smiles happily when his father praises him even though he always tried to kick his dad's ass. Kids are really complicated, so their parents need to understand them.

Buggy then asks Leo to use the power that he has just got. Leo nods and tries it but he can't do it even after trying for a few minutes because he doesn't understand how it works. Buggy tells him to just imagine it because Leo should've felt what his power is.

"I can't, the fire in my mind can't come OOUUT! AAHH, MY HAND IS BURNING!" shouts Leo so suddenly as fire suddenly appears on his right hand.

He runs around with a panicked expression because he can't put out the fire. Nami & Nojiko are panicking too and try to help Leo put the fire off by blowing the fire. But it just gets bigger and now both Leo's arms are on fire.

Buggy & Bellemere just watch amusedly from the side. Nojiko gets angry at them for not helping Leo who gets burnt. The kids start crying, so they decide to step in and stop them. Bellemere picks up the girls while Buggy approaches Leo.

Leo cries and asks Buggy to put the fire off while saying that he won't be a bad boy and won't try to catch Buggy again. But instead of putting the fire off, Buggy knocks Leo's head lightly. It still hurts though, but now Leo's attention is on the pain in his head.

"ARGH! WHAT ARE YOU DOING DAD?" asks Leo while holding the place that Buggy hits using his burning hands. Ñ00v€l--ß1n hosted the premiere release of this chapter.

"It hurts, isn't it? So which one is more painful? My hit or that fire?" asks Buggy.

"Huh? Of course the hit. Eh? Uh, oh," says Leo dumbfoundedly as he realizes what he has just said.

Now when he thinks more calmly, the fire in his hands isn't hot at all. He can feel the place that his dad hits twitching, but he can't feel the heat of the fire at all. Nami & Nojiko also stop crying when they see that Leo is fine.

"That fire is your power, so you won't get hurt by it or any normal fire. Your body has also become fire itself, so you won't get hurt by normal attacks like this," says Buggy while flicking a finger at Leo's forehead.

So the family decides to have lunch in the training ground. Bellemere has cooked a lot of food which they brought here. Her cooking skill has improved tremendously since she needed to feed some mouths, so her food has become very delicious, unlike when she was still dating Buggy.

They eat immediately and to his sisters' surprise, Leo is eating really fast, although their father is still faster. He also eats twice more than his usual portions, but Buggy knows it will increase over time. That's what happened to him when his usage of his devil fruit ability became better, after all.

Luckily, Bellemere likes seeing the food she cooked gets eaten well. She doesn't care if she needs to cook a lot more because seeing her family enjoys her food gives her the best sense of satisfaction. Besides, she is already used to cooking a lot of food whenever Buggy returned.

After eating, Leo is playing with his fire again, and they let him be. He is still very curious about it and it's the best chance for him to know more about his power. But he will get tired again, so Bellemere goes home to cook more food with Nojiko & Nami helping her.

Fries joins them too, so it's just Buggy & Leo in the training ground now. Buggy tells Leo that he can use more power now that they are alone. So Leo does as he says and makes more fire which tires him faster, but it also makes him more satisfied and gets a better understanding of his power.

The training ground is in a little mess with many burnt marks. But it's not a big problem at all because a training ground was built with the expectation of getting destroyed in the future. So Buggy just smiles widely seeing his son showing promising talent in fighting too.

Buggy even starts thinking too far ahead, "Maybe he can be the next Pirate King."
