This was a clash between two monsters.
Anyone who got too close could easily be blasted to the ground and killed by the battle's aftershocks.
Perospero retreated beyond the battle ring, staring darkly at Bullet.
The Big Mom Pirates' forces were scattered across more than thirty islands throughout Whole Cake Island.
