Charlotte Family's Greatest Masterpiece!
Whole Cake Island, Cake Island, Cake Castle.
Perospero, holding a Den Den Mushi in his hand, walked through the Cake Castle with an extremely serious expression.
As the "Candy Minister" of Whole Cake Island, Perospero also has his own private island – Candy Island.
But even on ordinary days, Perospero rarely stays on Candy Island. He spends more time on Cake Island, serving the Queen of Whole Cake Island.
The urgent Den Den Mushi) message from Cheese Island was immediately relayed to Perospero, the "Candy Minister," who naturally reported it to his "Queen" at the first opportunity.
As for having intelligence agents contact Big Mom directly?
Nobody has that guts.
Perospero made his way to the ninth floor of the Cake Castle, which is also where Big Mom's bedroom is located.
Outside the palace, a giant magic mirror blocked Perospero's path.
This "magic mirror" is also one of the Homies created by Charlotte Linlin using the [Soul-Soul Fruit], and it possesses anthropomorphic intelligence.
"Perospero."
A human woman's face appeared on the magic mirror, looking at the Candy Minister with slight surprise.
"Mom is sleeping now."
Yes, I know.
Perospero pursed his lips, a hint of nervousness appearing on his face.
The first secret to survival in Whole Cake Island is—never, ever, ever disturb Big Mom's enjoyment, no matter when or where.
Whether it's the "interest in eating," the "interest in drinking," or the "interest in sleeping"...
All in all.
The best way to get along with Charlotte Linlin is to "follow orders and let things take their course".
Previously, Beasts Kaido made a surprise visit and fought with Charlotte Linlin, after which he represented the Beasts Pirates in establishing a "pirate alliance" with the BIG MOM Pirates.
Because of this matter, and the Tea Party that is about to be held.
Charlotte Linlin had a big meal yesterday and is now sleeping soundly.
As the eldest son of the Charlotte Family, Perospero knew very well that disturbing his mother while she was sleeping would easily provoke her "morning grumpiness".
And once Mom gets angry...
No one can control the consequences.
But...
"Urgent intelligence!"
Perospero said seriously.
"The Shichibukai White Dragon, Whitebeard the Third, Edward Weevil III, and another little-known swordsman are now invading Totto Land."
"Mont-d'Or has been defeated... Snack was also defeated just now when the entire territory was being surveyed..."
"In short, please make sure to get this message to Mom!"
According to Perospero, if he disturbed his mother now, she "might" get angry.
But what if White Dragon and Whitebeard the Third wreak havoc in Whole Cake Island and wake up Mom...?
Mom will definitely be angry!
In that case, it will be Perospero who suffers!
Between two evils, choose the lesser.
Perospero now has no choice but to forcibly wake his mother.
The magic mirror heard the Candy Minister's report, and the face reflected in the mirror disappeared.
Immediately afterwards.
A thunderous roar and lightning echoed from the palace.
Perospero, standing outside, instantly felt beads of sweat forming on his forehead; he knew that Zeus was in a rage.
As three high-level Homies personally created by Charlotte Linlin, Napoleon, Zeus, and Prometheus guarded Big Mom day and night.
Time slips away, bit by bit.
Perospero dared not urge him, but stood anxiously outside the palace gate.
Until a series of heavy footsteps came from inside the door.
With bloodshot eyes and heavy breathing, looking utterly exasperated, it was Charlotte Linlin, throwing a tantrum in the morning.
"Mama mama..."
Charlotte Linlin glared at Perospero, then laughed in fury.
"There really are some fearless brats who dare to interrupt my Tea Party!!"
Let's move the time forward a little.
Just as Perospero was informing Charlotte Linlin of the urgent intelligence about Cheese Island.
The Blue-Eyes White Dragon has also left Cheese Island and arrived at a new island.
Wheat Island.
As a "sub-island" of Whole Cake Island, Wheat Island maintains the same architectural style as the previous Potato Island and Cheese Island, and also resembles an island built with food.
The difference lies in the fact that Wheat Island still retains certain distinctive styles.
Just like the magnificent building standing in the central area of Wheat Island, resembling a stack of giant donuts, with the top donut even stacked upright.
This undoubtedly suited the preferences of the owner of Wheat Island.
The Minister of Totto Land stationed on Wheat Island is none other than the Flour Minister, the head of the Sweet Three Generals, Charlotte Family's greatest masterpiece.
Charlotte Katakuri!
Information about Cheese Island, via Mont-d'Or's "Phone Book," has spread throughout the entire territory of Whole Cake Island.
This naturally includes Wheat Island.
When the Blue-Eyes White Dragon arrived at Wheat Island.
Katakuri also emerged from his "donut building," preparing to head to Cheese Island to support Mont-d'Or and drive out the enemy—his duty as one of the Sweet Three Generals of Whole Cake Island!
Other islands of Whole Cake Island.
Whether it's the descendants of the Charlotte Family or the other executives of the BIG MOM Pirates.
Upon receiving intelligence of an "invasion by foreign enemies," all the pirates dropped what they were doing and headed for Cheese Island.
This is also a testament to the "unity" of the Emperor Pirates!
The moment Katakuri stepped out of the "donut building" on Wheat Island, a sharp red light flashed in his eyes Observation Haki, which allows him to "Future Sight," directly sent him a "warning" from the future.
Katakuri clearly "saw" a "Whitebeard" man wielding a naginata descend from the sky, crashing onto Wheat Island, intending to attack him.
'Whitebeard?'
Katakuri raised his head at the opportune moment, his calm and collected eyes gazing at the sky.
He happened to see the Blue-Eyes White Dragon fly over Wheat Island.
In an instant.
Katakuri's eyes darkened.
He wasn't worried about his own future, but about his younger brother on Cheese Island.
'Mont-d'Or...'
Mont-d'Or's defeat was too swift.
Almost immediately after he issued the Den Den Mushi warning, he was knocked down by Storm's [Conqueror's Haki].
Neither Cake Island nor Wheat Island revealed Mont-d'Or's defeat.
Katakuri's intelligence was even "lagging behind" that of Perospero on Cake Island.
At least he doesn't know yet.
Snack had already failed long before Mont-d'Or did!
Anyway.
Upon seeing the White Dragon's iconic "mount," Katakuri instantly realized that Mont-d'Or on Cheese Island was probably in grave danger.
But Katakuri is Katakuri after all.
After a brief period of grief, Katakuri cleared his mind of all distractions and entered a state of utter calm.
At that moment, a figure "fell" off the Blue-Eyes White Dragon.
It was Weevil had just suffered a setback with the [Book-Book Fruit] in Mont-d'Or!
Even a "fool" like Weevil.
Being ambushed by someone using their abilities, leading to his defeat... this alone was enough to make him feel ashamed and angry.
Anger ignited a power that Weevil had always kept hidden within him.
That power belongs to [Zoan, Human- Human-Human Fruit, Mythical Zoan, Yamawaro form]!
Weevil descended from the sky, his already incredibly tall and strong body swelling even more, with thick, dark hair, like that of an ape, gushing out from his body and covering his surface.
This is the "Mountain Boy"!
Katakuri's eyes locked onto the "Whitebeard the Third" who had descended from the sky. He raised his right arm, using the power of the [Mochi-Mochi Fruit] with exceptional skill, and a gleaming trident emerged from his body.
Immediately afterwards, jet-black Armament Haki surged from Katakuri's body, wrapping around the blade of the trident called "Earth Dragon," adding to its power.
A vision of the future flashed through Katakuri's eyes, and he swung his trident, the Earth Dragon, as if he had foreseen the future.
At the same time.
In mid-air, Weevil transformed into a "Yama-warashi" (mountain boy), wielding his naginata. The long, narrow, snow-white blade pointed directly at Katakuri on the island below, slashing downwards with the force of splitting a mountain.
The naginata and the trident, two extremely fierce weapons, collided violently in mid-air, instantly producing a deafening roar.
Boom!!
The land of Wheat Island was violently damaged, with countless cracks spreading in all directions like a spider web, and violent shockwaves swept across the entire island like a storm.
As Katakuri sensed the astonishing power emanating from the Trident Earth Dragon, his expression subtly changed.
'This power...'
Even if Katakuri's [Observation Haki] "foresaw" the future.
However, there is ultimately a difference between "seeing with one's own eyes" and "experiencing with one's own hands".
Katakuri's Observation Haki allowed him to clearly see himself blocking Whitebeard the Third's naginata.
But when Katakuri actually took Whitebeard the Third's naginata, he realized that the opponent's strength far exceeded his expectations!
Weevil inherited Whitebeard's power from his youth.
After consuming the [Yama-waro Fruit], Weevil's already astonishing power was amplified and enhanced once again.
Furthermore, Weevil descended from the sky, carrying with him a powerful momentum.
If Katakuri hadn't promptly covered his Trident: Earth Dragon with a layer of Armament Haki...
The fate of this "greatest masterpiece of the Charlotte Family" will probably not be much better than that of Charlotte Snack.
Veins bulged on Katakuri's forehead as he mustered his strength and pulled Weevil's naginata aside, avoiding further grappling with his opponent.
A true expert's skill is immediately apparent.
Katakuri personally experienced Weevil's power and, without the slightest hesitation, directly unleashed the [Awakening] power of the [Mochi-Mochi Fruit].
Centered on his location, the power of the [Mochi-Mochi Fruit] instantly eroded the Wheat Island beneath his feet, and gushing glutinous rice spurted out like a spring.
Weevil, seeing this, was not alarmed at all; on the contrary, he found it rather amusing.
Weevil had seen similar scenarios far too many times.
"Red-haired guy! You and the Vongola are the same type of Devil Fruit User!"
Second update.
It's a tiny bit earlier than yesterday.
Goodnight everyone.
