At the same time, the Katakuri Pirates had also arrived near Music Island.
This time, Katakuri had mobilized nearly all his forces. Smoothie, Perospero, the former officers of the Big Mom Pirates, and the Escapee Pirates he had subdued had all arrived near Music Island with him.

A deafening blast erupted in the clear sky. As the Conqueror's Haki of two Four Emperors-level fighters clashed,
