Katakuri's death
"You really look pathetic, Luffy!"
Haku was squatting next to Luffy, poking his cheek with a small stick.
Luffy struggled to open one eye and glanced at Haku.
He smiled and said, "Haku, I finally defeated him."
"I know!"
Haku opened her palm and began to heal Luffy's injuries.
Not far from them, Katakuri was also lying on the ground.
Those who didn't know the situation would assume the other person was dead, but Haku knew that the other person was still very much alive.
After all, those who have already developed Awakening their Devil Fruit ability are not so easy to kill.
Perhaps sensing Haku's presence, Katakuri, who had been lying unconscious on the ground, opened his eyes.
He asked with difficulty, "Mom, how is she?"
Although the other person's voice was very faint, Haku could still hear it very clearly.
He said, "She's dead!"
Silence! A profound silence fell over the mirrored space!
Actually, Katakuri had already guessed the answer, but he still wanted to confirm it.
"And then there are your brothers and sisters. Basically, except for those who weren't wanted, I killed the rest!"
Haku added insult to injury.
Perhaps out of excitement, Katakuri coughed up a mouthful of blood!
"You're trying to kill me! I'm going to kill you, you bastard!"
Upon hearing that his beloved younger siblings had died or been injured in numerous deaths, this strong man finally lost control of his emotions!
He didn't lose his composure even when he heard about his mother's death!
But at this moment, upon hearing of the terrible fate that befell his brothers and sisters, Katakuri's anger and grief erupted like a volcano. He struggled to stand up, but his injuries were too severe, and he could only lie helplessly on the ground.
"Kill me?" Haku turned around, looking coldly at Katakuri. "Do you think you have the ability?"
Haku's words were like a sharp knife, piercing deeply into Katakuri's heart. He clenched his fists, trying to control his emotions, but his eyes were filled with undisguised rage.
"Haku, why... why did you do this?" Katakuri asked with difficulty.
Haku was silent for a moment, then slowly spoke, "Because your BIG MOM Pirates have become a scourge on this world. Your greed and brutality have caused countless people to lose their homes and loved ones. I am just doing my best to bring a glimmer of justice to this world."
"Justice?" Katakuri sneered. "Is your so-called justice just the indiscriminate killing of innocent people? Do you know that what you're doing will only plunge more people into pain and despair!"
Haku shook her head, a hint of sarcasm in her voice. "I have never killed innocent people indiscriminately. Those I have killed were those who deserved it. As for the innocent, I will naturally do everything I can to protect them."
"You... you bastard!" Katakuri roared, but his voice grew weaker and weaker.
"You don't really think you're innocent, do you? How many islands have been slaughtered simply because they couldn't pay the gold and silver you demanded, and the huge amounts of candy?"
"Compared to me! Your hands are stained with more blood than mine! You are far more ruthless than I am!"
Haku didn't say anything more. He walked over to Katakuri, squatted down, and gently patted the other's shoulder.
"Katakuri, you are a worthy opponent. But unfortunately, our paths diverge. So, you'd be better off dead!"
Katakuri's eyes were somewhat vacant as he said, "Without Mother's protection, what good will be for the rest of them? They'd be better off dying by your hand!"
"That's none of my business! I have no obligation to help you cancerous plants!" Haku's voice was slightly cold.
The next second, Katakuri's head separated from his body!
"Brother!" Brulee finally couldn't resist and ran out from the corner of the mirror space.
Her eyes were filled with resentment and deep hatred as she looked at Haku!
Haku was completely unconcerned by the other person's gaze!
He glanced coldly at Brulee and said indifferently, "Brulee, you and your brother are both members of the Big Mom Pirates. I originally intended to let you go, but since you've shown yourself, don't blame me for being impolite."
Upon hearing this, a flicker of fear crossed Brulee's eyes, but she quickly regained her composure and shouted, "Haku, do you think you can control everything? Although we lost, you'll get your comeuppance sooner or later!"
Haku scoffed and said, "Retribution? I've never believed in retribution. I only believe that this world needs people to uphold justice."
Haku waved her hand, and Brulee's head fell off, rolling next to Katakuri's head!
The surrounding mirror space began to crumble due to the death of the Devil Fruit ability's Master!
Haku flashed by, disappearing into the mirror space with Luffy, who was lying on the ground!
Whole Cake Island!
A shattered mirror lies on the ground.
A clean, white hand suddenly stretched out and braced itself on the ground!
Very soon!
Haku jumped out of the mirror space, and Luffy in her hand said thankfully, "That was really dangerous! I almost died in there!"
Haku looked around to make sure it was safe before turning her attention back to Luffy. She carefully examined Luffy's injuries and found that although they were serious, they were all recoverable. As long as no vital organs were injured, Haku believed that Luffy should be able to recover quickly!
"You really gave it your all this time," Haku said, her tone tinged with admiration.
Luffy smiled, his face pale, but his eyes remained resolute. "I told you, I would definitely beat that guy!"
"Yes, yes, yes! I know you can beat that guy!" Haku grabbed Luffy, locked onto a target Teleportation over!
Deep inside Whole Cake Island, there's a place that looks like a kitchen.
However, the place was destroyed in the aftermath of the battle.
Haku and Luffy before a short, fat man wearing a pink chef's uniform!
This is none other than Streusen, one of the original members of Big Mom and the head chef of Whole Cake Island!
Haku looked at the somewhat dejected man in front of her and said, "I thought you were going to try to run away."
"Escape? Where can I escape to? This is my home!" the Streusen exclaimed.
"A home built by a bunch of hateful people? You don't really think your 'Whole Cake Island' is a utopia, do you?" Haku found it ridiculous.
Streusen sighed softly, a complex emotion flashing in his eyes, as if he were recalling the past. He slowly began to speak:
"Perhaps you're right. But this is, after all, where I live. Every brick, every tile, every blade of grass here carries too many of my memories."
