Food Craving Syndrome

"Wow, that's amazing! So that's Whole Cake Island!"

Luffy and Chopper, those two gluttons, stared with shining eyes at the giant Whole Cake Island in front of them, made of various creams, chocolates, and other ingredients!

"It is truly magnificent!" Brook exclaimed.

Luffy said, "Then let's get off the ship quickly! I can't wait!"

"Wait, Luffy! This is Big Mom's stronghold. We could easily get into danger if we're not careful," Nami said.

"Okay~_~!" Luffy temporarily suppressed his restless thoughts.

At that moment, Chopper pointed to the coast of Whole Cake Island and exclaimed in surprise, "Isn't that Sanji? Isn't he going to a wedding?"

Everyone looked towards the shore, where a figure was indeed standing.

Before Luffy could even say hello, Sanji ran back onto Whole Cake Island and into the forest.

"What's going on with Sanji? Wasn't he just going to greet us?" Luffy asked, puzzled.

Nami said with a strange expression, "That person doesn't seem to Sanji, does he?"

Her Observation Haki clearly showed that Sanji had disappeared after she entered the Twisted Forest.

Soon after docking the Thousand Sunny, Luffy and his crew chased into the Twisted Forest!

Inside the Palace!

The Big Mom sang a folk song as she joyfully anticipated tomorrow's wedding cake!

That's right, I'm really looking forward to the wedding cake tomorrow!

The reason the Big Mom was looking forward to the wedding cake was closely related to her symptoms of "Food Craving Syndrome".

The Big Mom's "Food Craving Syndrome" is a very special symptom. When she has an intense craving for a certain food, she will fall into a frenzied state!

She was willing to go to any lengths to obtain this food. Wedding cakes, as exquisite and auspicious foods, naturally became something she longed for.

Wedding cakes, as a special type of food, are undoubtedly very attractive to Big Mom due to their deliciousness and uniqueness!

This type of cake is usually made with the finest ingredients and the highest level of craftsmanship (like the Chiffon cake made by Capone Bege's wife Chiffon). For Big Mom, who loves food, the Chiffon cake with its unique flavor is undoubtedly an irresistible temptation.

Of course, this wedding also held a special place in the Big Mom's plans.

She plans to consolidate her power through Sanji and Brulee's wedding, and swallowing up the Germa Technology Kingdom on the spot is part of her plan.

She hoped to demonstrate her power and status through this special wedding, and also hoped that the cake would symbolize the success of her plans.

Therefore, the wedding cake was not only a delicious food for her, but also a symbolic object.

The cake mentioned here is equivalent to the Germa 66 Kingdom!

If it weren't for Haku's intervention, Vinsmoke Judge might still be foolishly believing he'd aligned himself with the powerful maritime force of Big Mom!

Little did they know, the entire Germa Kingdom was merely a cake to be divided among the strong!

Let's get back to the Big Mom's "Food Craving Syndrome"!

This symptom intensified the Big Mom's desire for the wedding cake.

When she has an intense craving for a certain food, she becomes extremely frantic and reckless.

She might send her men to search for this food, even resorting to war to obtain it.

Therefore, when Big Mom desires a wedding cake but cannot obtain it, she becomes extremely dangerous and unpredictable.

Even her own children could die on the spot if she wasn't careful!

Perhaps it was because they were tired from singing!

Or perhaps it was because he noticed Perospero standing at the door!

The Big Mom stopped singing and said happily, "Perospero! How are the preparations for the Tea Party that's starting tomorrow morning going?"

"Mom! Everything is ready!"

"Even the ingredients for the most important Chiffon cake are almost ready; we're just waiting for the head chef of the Chiffon and Streusen to start making them!"

Perospero recounted in detail the things that the Big Mom cared about!

Especially the most important Chiffon cake!

Perospero, knowing that the Big Mom suffered from Food Craving Syndrome, paid close attention to this aspect of her condition!

"Well done, Perospero! Tomorrow I'll be able to eat a delicious Chiffon cake!"

Big Mom spoke, her mouth began to produce copious amounts of saliva!

I wonder if the Big Mom's saliva contained strong acid? It even corroded a hole in the ground!

If Haku could see this, she'd definitely have a few complaints about the other person.

Perospero complimented, "Mom, you'll definitely be delighted with tomorrow's Chiffon cake. It's a masterpiece made by Chiffon, combining her unique creativity with the Streusen chef's exquisite culinary skills; it's sure to be your favorite."

The Big Mom became even more excited upon hearing this; she could almost smell the sweet aroma of Chiffon cake, and a satisfied smile spread across her face.

Just then, the Big Mom remembered something and said, "By the way, has there been any change in the Straw Hat Pirates's whereabouts?"

Perospero said with a strange expression, "Mom! The Straw Hat Pirates should be on Whole Cake Island by now. I suspect they have some ulterior motive for coming here."

After thinking for a moment, the Big Mom said, "Then someone should have gone to arrest them!"

Perospero praised, "As expected of Mom, Cracker has already gone to the Twisted Forest to set a trap to capture them!"

"Cracker? He's just a kid, why would he be interested in the Straw Hat Pirates?" The Big Mom glanced at Perospero and said.

Perospero sensed the meaningful look in the Big Mom's eyes!

He stammered, "Perhaps Cracker wants to take revenge on the Straw Hat Pirates for the 'humiliation' Haku inflicted on him back then?"

The Big Mom was naturally a bit stingy and vindictive, nodded in satisfaction after hearing this and said, "That's my son! But that Straw Hat Kid is still somewhat useful to me; I hope Cracker doesn't kill him!"

Perospero, his tongue lolling out, said, "Don't worry, Mom! Cracker already talked to me about it, and he assured me he wouldn't kill the Straw Hat Pirates!"

The Big Mom nodded again and said, "Remember to remind Cracker again later. You know, that Straw Hat Kid has quite a few powerful connections behind him! Especially that madwoman Haku. If you anger him..."

"What are the consequences?" The Big Mom fell silent at this point.

It's important to understand that even if she were decades younger and at the peak of her abilities...

But when facing Haku, she was still completely powerless to resist!

Moreover, Haku's abilities may have improved even further in the past few years!
