All of BIG MOM Was Luffy's Whetstone

Capone Bege's eyes widened in shock at Haku's words. He had never imagined that Haku would consider Katakuri as Luffy's "teacher." He knew all too well how strong Katakuri was; even within the BIG MOM Pirates, he was one of the top fighters, not to mention his Observation Haki, which allowed him to almost Future Sight.

"Are you... are you sure? Katakuri is no ordinary opponent, his Observation Haki..." Capone Bege tried to remind Haku, but Haku interrupted him.

"I know Katakuri is strong, but that's precisely why he's the opponent Luffy needs most." A determined light shone in Haku's eyes. "Luffy needs more than just victory; he needs growth. The battle with Katakuri will be key to his growth."

"But what if Luffy loses..." Capone Bege was still a little worried.

"It's okay if he loses, as long as he learns something from it, it's worth it," Haku said calmly. "And I'll stay by his side to make sure he's not in any danger."

Capone Bege took a deep breath; he knew that once Haku made her decision, there was no turning back.

Very soon!

Because the commotion caused was really quite significant!

Luffy was immediately pursued by Big Mom's children!

After a long and intense battle, Luffy Nami quickly fell into a coma and became Big Mom's Prisoner!

After watching the show come to an end, Capone Bege left with Haku.

Because Luffy caused such a huge commotion!

The defenses inside the Cake Castle will become unusually sparse!

Basically, without Kate's reminder, Brook and his crew in the mirror world seized the opportunity to use the mirrors to jump into some important rooms!

And by a twist of fate, they ended up in Big Mom's Treasure Vault, where Brook successfully obtained the Log Stone and the Poneglyph from Big Mom!

After Brook, Chopper, and the others accidentally stumbled into Big Mom's Treasure Vault and successfully obtained the precious Log Stone and Poneglyph, the atmosphere on Whole Cake Island became even more tense.

The members of the BIG MOM Pirates searched everywhere, trying to recover the stolen treasure while preventing Luffy and his crew from breaking in again.

Meanwhile, Luffy and Nami were imprisoned in a dark cell. Although they were unconscious, Luffy's resilience and determination seemed to shine in the darkness. Nami lay quietly beside him, and their breathing was exceptionally clear in the silent cell.

Capone Bege and Haku did not directly participate in the chaos. They chose a relatively safe place and quietly observed how things would develop. Haku's eyes remained firm; she believed Luffy could overcome this ordeal and learn something from it.

"The Straw Hat Kid has been arrested, will he... be alright?" Capone Bege finally couldn't help but ask the question that was on his mind.

He still doesn't understand why this man is so calm!

"Don't worry, he's much stronger than we think," Haku said softly, reassuringly. "Besides, this battle is a rare opportunity for him. Only by experiencing challenges like this can he become the true Pirate King."

"Besides, even if we don't help, someone will rush to help that kid!" Haku said casually.

Sometime later, Haku asked Capone Bege to get a sofa!

Haku, on the other hand, just collapsed onto the sofa, completely listless!

In the end, Luffy and Nami were rescued by Jinbe on the island!

Capone Bege found an opportunity to absorb the three men into his own body!

Then there's Chopper and his friends; after completing their mission, they left the Mirror World.

Under Haku's guidance, Capone Bege also absorbed them all into his own body!

The next day!

The Big Mom's Tea Party has arrived as scheduled!

The Tea Party unfolded on the top floor of the Palace on Whole Cake Island. The entire Palace was decorated in a magnificent golden hue, exuding a strong Pirates style. Occasionally, chandeliers illuminated the entire space, making every detail clearly visible.

Here, you can see countless Pirates flags unique to Big Mom fluttering in the breeze, and wine glasses of various shapes and colors shimmering with a mesmerizing luster under the lights.

Huge round dining tables were laden with a dazzling array of food and drinks, their aromas filling the air and making mouths water.

In the center of the hall, a huge round table was laden with all sorts of desserts, all meticulously prepared by the chefs of the Big Mom Pirates, each one emitting an enticing aroma. Around them, members of the Pirates crew bustled about, some enjoying the food, others chatting amongst themselves.

The Big Mom sat at the head of the dining table, dressed in an elegant gown, a satisfied smile on her face. Surrounding her were the executives of the BIG MOM Pirates, looking imposing and powerful. The entire top floor of the Palace was filled with laughter and a lively atmosphere.

The Big Mom's gaze swept across the entire hall, seemingly admiring the Tea Party that had been meticulously prepared for her.

However, she still noticed some problems!

She began, "Perospero, if I remember correctly, none of the leaders from our subordinate forces have come over!"

Perospero, who had relaxed since the start of the Tea Party, was now tense!

He immediately straightened his back and replied nervously, "Yes, Mother. Many of our allies have lost contact without us knowing what happened. I've already sent people to urge them on."

The Big Mom frowned slightly, a hint of displeasure flashing in her eyes. "Our Tea Party is a major event in the Pirates world, how can they be so negligent? Perospero, you need to make sure these affiliated forces understand how important their relationship with our BIG MOM Pirates is."

Perospero nodded quickly in agreement, but couldn't help feeling a sense of pressure.

He deduced a sense of dissatisfaction from the Big Mom's words!

He knew those who hadn't come to the Tea Party were doomed!

But why didn't so many people come to the Tea Party?

And even some of his own siblings didn't come or were late?

This is very abnormal!

Although, despite the fact that many people still attended the Tea Party!

However, Perospero, who was in charge of every aspect of the Tea Party, noticed something was amiss.

He summoned a few men and ordered them to contact some of the surrounding islands to see if anything had happened.

Capone Bege noticed this and said nervously, "Haku, did you have someone outside make a move? Perospero seems to have noticed something?"
