On the Hell Pirates' side.

When it comes to the most kills and the most illustrious record, it has to be Yurivich.

The other members are dealing with some tough characters or scattered individuals.

He was the only one facing a group of the Charlotte Family members.

After realizing something was wrong, the survivors quickly banded together.

Moreover, they were quite close to Big Mom and originally planned to gather around Charlotte Linlin to form a united front.

But... he was intercepted by Yurivich alone.

He faced nearly twenty people, including Cream Minister Opera, Wine Minister Zickert, Finance Minister Noisette, and Pie Minister Compo. Although many of them were so badly injured that they had lost their ability to move or were on the verge of death, there were also some who were still capable of fighting.

However, even with these people working together, they were unable to launch any effective attack against Yurivich.

Whether it was Opera releasing large amounts of cream to scorch Yurivich, or Minister of Wine Zickert firing shots repeatedly, or Compo's boomerang... none of it worked.

Yurivich, still habitually wearing a black cloak, simply strode forward with a large sword on his shoulder... The surging torrent of white cream engulfed him completely, but did not stop him; he looked like a cold, robotic figure.

Zickert's bullets... and the boomerang that hit them but bounced off, left the Charlotte Family members dumbfounded.

As they approached to a certain distance, Yurivich's imposing cloaked figure leaped into the air and then crashed into the crowd like a cannonball.

Then came a large, spreading crescent-shaped storm of slashing attacks.

Her agile figure and nimble movements, along with the warlike and manic face beneath the cloak, made the group of the Charlotte Family survivors see the rain of blood rising above their heads.

There were also some severed limbs and broken arms.

This man's explosive physical abilities and his wild fighting style alone were enough to make Opera and the others lose confidence.

It swept through everything in its path, like a mad lion entering a sheepfold.

It is aimlessly and frantically 'biting' all its prey.

Driven by an instinctive hunger...

When Dorans and Kaka finished dealing with their own battles and arrived, Yurivich had already disappeared... all they saw was a scene of utter destruction and horrific corpses.

"Oh."

Kaka whistled.

"I feel sorry for them. If they had met us... they might have died a little easier."

Dorans grinned. "Let's go... there are still some little mice left, let's go help those priests."

"Aaaaaaah!"

Moments later, thunderclouds rolled in above Whole Cake Island.

A piercing shriek shattered the sky.

The power emanating from that cry alone was enough to drown out all the battle currently taking place on the island.

The one who spoke was, of course, Big Mom.

Bare's seemingly powerful and imposing One-Punch Man failed to cause her any harm.

It was just a minor scrape and a little blood.

Even Bare had to marvel at the old woman's abnormal physical condition.

However, this was only the situation at the very beginning of the battle.

The two had been fighting for some time, like two ancient ferocious beasts tearing at each other.

Even with Muzan's bloodline, Bare, who is nearly immortal, seems unable to shake Charlotte Linlin's body. This is mainly because Big Mom's strength lies not only in her physique but also in her Haki. Simply put, the same One-Punch Man from Bare might deal 50 points of damage, while Big Mom's punch would deal 100 points... However, due to the nature of his ability, Bare's health bar is almost 'infinite,' so even if the two fight to the very end, Bare can eventually wear Big Mom down.

Meanwhile, Bare, who had already used the Clank-Clank Fruit, had transformed from a large amount of matter into a towering 'shadow giant', and was One-Punch Man punching 'little' Big Mom, seemingly trying to blast Charlotte Linlin into the abyss below. Even the land of the entire island showed cracks and crumbling.

When he's unleashing his full power and abilities, the damage he can inflict far exceeds that of Big Mom!

This is why Big Mom suddenly howled to the sky.

Bare unilaterally and brutally defeated the Yonko.

Logically speaking, this situation should not occur, because overall, Linlin's combat power is still above Bare's... not to mention that Big Mom is the most dangerous after going berserk.

However... a fatal factor emerged.

The three special Homies formed from Linlin's own souls— Zeus, Prometheus the Sun, and Napoleon the Pink Hat—who could maximize her combat power, did not respond to her summons. It was as if they had lost contact with her and disappeared without a trace.

Furthermore, Big Mom also sensed that... her Devil Fruit ability seemed to be 'interfered' in some way.

During the battle, she couldn't create Homies on the spot... Half an hour earlier, she had tried to use her ability to 'tear' a cloud from the night sky to recreate a 'new Zeus '. However, the ability failed during the process of imbuing it with power.

This situation left Big Mom completely dumbfounded.

She felt that her Devil Fruit power was useless...

Why? She didn't understand.

That's why she seemed so passive in the face of Bare's relentless efforts.

Another massive, overwhelming One-Punch Man landed, instantly piercing through the central landmass of Whole Cake Island, and even the island's foundation hidden beneath the sea was blasted into dust.

The island, which was originally a single entity, was instantly torn apart.

The colossal humanoid object formed from endless matter disintegrated and vanished with the wind. Bare jumped back to the ground from the sky, retracted his Devil Fruit power, and returned to his original state.

The battle has temporarily come to an end.

With light steps, Long walked out from the swirling dust.

Bare, with some blood on his body, turned his head and looked over.

He had no wounds on his body. Although he was injured by Charlotte Linlin at the beginning, he was able to heal himself in the blink of an eye.

"Hazy!!!"

"It was you who did this!!"

What did you do?

A scream came from the other side of the cracked earth.

Bigmom wasn't thrown into the sea, but although she dodged the terrible One-Punch Man, she still absorbed a significant amount of its destructive power with her own flesh and blood.

She simply avoided the very center; with the area of her fists slamming down, she could only dodge to the edge at most.

She also sensed Oboro's presence.

The God Slayer... has finally shown himself.

"Didn't the madness continue?"

"It's surprising that he actually woke up."

As the soft laughter drew near, Oboro stood beside Bare, revealing his true form.

The reason he had Bare hold off Big Mom was that he had something to deal with, such as looting resource points, or cards, from the various small battlefields on the island.

Then... also Charlotte Linlin's 'three weapons': Zeus, Prometheus, and Napoleon.

Since it's the power of the soul... then Oboro is very familiar with it.

"Owner!"

"Should we kill this old woman...?"

Along with Oboro, two elements floated above her head, namely Zeus and Prometheus, who originally belonged to Big Mom.

Given Oboro's soul power, and considering the power system of the One Piece world, as well as the buffs suppressed by this world, he himself couldn't create Homies... he simply didn't possess that ability. However, he could take advantage of what was already there. In other words, he only needed to erase the soul imprint within the Homies created by Charlotte Linlin and then imprint his own soul imprint on them.

This is a more sophisticated method than Big Mom splitting her own soul.

At this moment, Zeus the Zeus and Prometheus the sun both revealed their 'battle form'. The thundercloud flashed with golden lightning and turned pitch black... Prometheus also turned into a ball of burning flame, bursting out with terrifying high temperature.

The two elemental spirits looked at Big Mom with extremely violent and fierce eyes.

"No rush."

He smiled and waved.

On the other side, Charlotte Linlin was completely dumbfounded, her eyes glazed over.
