Buggy vs. Big Mom Pirates (4)

"Hard Biscuit!"

"Candy Armor!"

"Mochi Shield!"

"Fruit Wall!"

"Cream Coating!"

"Butter Bastion!"

A series of low growls rose and fell. Although Charlotte Linlin could not sense any external threat, her children endured the onslaught of strange sounds, conserving their strength to the maximum extent and using their Devil Fruit abilities to create large barriers to offset the power of the energy beams.

Whether it's Charlotte Katakuri, Cracker, or the other ministers, they are all great pirates with extremely high bounties, the best of the New World. The abilities they use, combined with Armament Haki hardening, demonstrate superb durability and defense.

As the spatial energy beam was blocked by layer upon layer of obstacles, its originally fierce and powerful impact was gradually weakened. However, even so, the power of the Space Beam Cannon was still extraordinary, destroying all obstacles completely!

Charlotte Daifuku's belt released a fully Armament Haki Lamp Genie, wielding a large axe and standing ten meters in front of Charlotte Linlin with his bare body.

The Space Beam Cannon, which had almost covered half of Charlotte Linlin's body, was reduced to one-tenth of its original strength by the Lamp Genie's defense. The latter was blasted into a cloud of mist and returned to Charlotte Daifuku's belt, but it bought her a few breaths!

However, this spatial energy, less than one-tenth of its power, was still enough to cause fatal damage to Charlotte Linlin, who was in a weakened state!

"Mirror World!"

Just then, Charlotte Bray, her face covered in blood, fearlessly rushed in front of Charlotte Linlin, holding a mirror, and swallowed all the spatial energy in front of her into the Mirror World.

As she finished doing all this, she fell forward to the ground, and because of the strange noise so close by, she dropped the mirror and covered her ears in pain.

Seeing that Charlotte Linlin was unharmed, Charlotte Katakuri dozens of men secretly breathed a sigh of relief.

"What an excellent group of subordinates..."

Buggy raised an eyebrow as he watched the Space Beam Cannon only create a weak gust of wind around Charlotte Linlin.

Pirate crews are ultimately judged by their overall strength. Even someone as powerful as Kaido in a one-on-one fight understands that one man can't fight four men, hence the need to create large groups of Devil Fruit users. While these guys with bounties approaching a billion each might not be able to match Buggy individually, they could cause him considerable trouble when they team up. This is why Buggy deliberately conserved his energy and wisely chose to destroy the nun's photo first.

No matter how strong he is, he could never possibly handle an entire Four Emperors crew, especially since this is their home turf.

Charlotte Linlin's strange noises finally stopped after nearly half a minute, and she once again fell into a state of unconsciousness.

During this time, Charlotte Katakuri shook his arm, and hundreds of mochi balls kept popping up on it. As he threw out the mochi balls, he shouted, "Put these in your ears!"

The Charlotte Family members who caught the rice earplugs quickly understood Charlotte Katakuri's intention and immediately sprang into action, using the rice balls to mitigate the negative impact of Charlotte Linlin's next wave of strange noises.

Charlotte Perospero licked his lips with his long, thin tongue. "Well done, Charlotte Katakuri. Now it's our turn to fight back!"

Charlotte Smoothie's voice was serious and cold. "This way, we can focus all our efforts on dealing with this intruder who ruined the tea party."

"As expected of Charlotte Katakuri, he's so clever!" Cracker rolled up a Pretzel in his hand, staring coldly at Buggy, his face full of determination.

"So, you still don't quite understand..."

Buggy spread his arms out in front of him, a sinister smile playing on his lips.

The glutinous rice ball filling everyone's ears suddenly split into tiny grains of glutinous rice. At that moment, Charlotte Linlin once again emitted a frenzied, strange sound, and the powerful sound waves swept in all directions like a tidal wave!

The splitting mochi balls couldn't stop the strange noise piercing their ears. The Charlotte Family members' expressions immediately turned grim. They covered their ears and were once again restrained from moving. Only Charlotte Katakuri decisively created mochi earplugs in his ears and stared intently at Buggy. This enemy was probably the most troublesome and terrifying one he had ever encountered in all these years!

"Flowing Mochi!!"

Charlotte Katakuri pressed his hands to the ground, and in the blink of an eye, the ground he touched began to form flowing mochi, which flowed towards Buggy like water. At the moment of approach, he changed his trajectory, bounced up from the ground, and transformed into an enormous mochi mouth that swallowed Buggy!

Buggy leaped slightly, his right foot like a drawn blade, spinning and kicking. In an instant, a white light sliced the mochi that blotted out the sky in front of him in half like a rag. His figure burst out from the mochi and rushed towards Charlotte Katakuri. The power of Chop-Chop instantly split Katakuri's mochi body into dozens of pieces, while the latter's hidden entity was exposed at the same time!

Buggy narrowed his eyes, and several small spatial rifts opened beneath his feet. The burst of energy, like a jet propulsion system, instantly increased his speed once again. His right hand, covered in Armament Haki, transformed into a trident and thrust out!

Charlotte Katakuri's pupils dilated suddenly. Just before Buggy's stab was about to land, his head exploded like a bursting bubble, turning into oddly shaped balls of dough. His entire body solidified again in the next instant. His hands and feet tumbled on the ground as he retreated, barely managing to avoid the fierce attack. He lay prone, supporting himself on the ground with one hand, breathing slightly heavily.

His eyes were fixed on Buggy, and he wiped the blood from the three thin wounds on his face, while a trickle of blood kept flowing from the corner of his mouth.

"That's impressive." Buggy looked at the scene before him, a noncommittal smile playing on his lips.

Charlotte Katakuri had just feinted an attack to conceal his true intentions. While using the rice balls to block Buggy's vision, he created flowing rice troughs around Charlotte Linlin, then smoothly carried her into the castle, reducing the impact of the strange noises on the other officers.

Therefore, during the operation to send Charlotte Linlin into the castle, Charlotte Katakuri, although able to Future Sight with his Observation Haki, had no choice but to desperately press his hands to the ground to create a flowing state in order to escape the suppression of the strange sound. However, his body could not move at all. In order to dodge Buggy's attack, he had to transform his body into a mochi shape. However, due to the restraint of Buggy's splitting ability, his physical form was discovered, and his cheek was scratched by the trident Shigan.

"Charlotte Katakuri- san!"

Because Charlotte Linlin fell into the castle and the strange noises weakened, the rest of the group were no longer under strong suppression and were able to move around one after another. They saw Charlotte Katakuri, who had made a huge sacrifice, and shouted angrily.

"Candy Slime!"

Without a word, Charlotte Perospero waved his cane, and the sticky cane syrup spread towards Buggy from all directions.

Buggy remained unmoved, looking at the syrup around him. "The show is about to begin."
