"This possibility... isn't impossible either." Charlotte Mousse was about to agree with his second brother's analysis, but then he suddenly recalled the scene of Roger laughing until tears streamed down his face on Final Island.
If it really was a colossal lie, then that would fit perfectly. Mousse did not dare draw any conclusions for the moment and could only set the question aside, listing several other possibilities for why the Celestial Dragons had not used their "national treasure":
"Setting aside that most absurd possibility, and also setting aside the possibility that Borsalino forgot to call in a report, there are four others. First, its power may not work on powerful individuals—for example, if it creates natural disasters. Second, its 'range' may be limited, unable to reach Mom at the time. Third, activation may take a long time, so they did not have time. Fourth, activating the 'national treasure' may come at an enormous cost, so they would never use it unless they were at the brink of destruction!"
"If it's the first, then there's no way it could stop Mom. If it's the second, then it's meaningless. If it can't even reach Branch G1, then it can only protect a tiny patch of land like Holy Land Mary Geoise. Mom can simply attack from afar. Her King's Fist has already proven in actual combat that even three top-tier powerhouses joining forces cannot withstand it. And even at Holy Land Mary Geoise, it would be difficult to gather more than four Marine Admirals or fighters of that level. The third possibility is not much different from the first. With Mom's strength, if they need that much time, she can simply charge straight into Pangea Castle."
After that analysis, Mousse identified the fourth possibility as the most likely one—the same theory
