"That's a rampaging Mom, we have no chance of winning if we keep fighting like this."
Someone turned and ran.
There was no point in fighting anymore.
Their own boss had gone mad, yet the enemy was at full health.
Brûlée hoisted a dozen or so mirrors.
She shouted, "Run, brothers, sisters!"
Those two terms practically encompassed the entirety of the Big Mom Pirates.
They had completely lost their will to fight, already suffering heavy losses and now being backstabbed by Big Mom under such circumstances.
If they didn't escape now, the entire army would be wiped out!
"Trying to run?"
Ye Zhuo reached out a massive hand, the Mountain Demonic Energy, Ryuo, and Conqueror's Coating ignoring Big Mom's slash.
He grabbed hold of her.
"Shatter the mirrors!"
Katakuri had just given the order.
Only a third of their survivors had escaped into the Mirror World.
Yet as long as they shattered the mirrors, they could get away scot-free.
Swish!
A huge figure was thrown in.
Drool pooled all over the floor from Big Mom.
Her mind was entirely consumed by food; the moment she saw a person, she wanted to attack and take their soul.
"What's the rush? Are you leaving without your captain?"
Ye Zhuo chuckled heartily as he appeared before everyone.
With a single punch, he shattered the last mirror.
He left the Big Mom Pirates not a shred of an escape route.
"Mom, snap out of it!
Now is not the time to be eating strawberry cake!"
Before Perospero's voice had even faded, Big Mom flew into a furious rage and slashed down with a sword.
Bang!
Katakuri blocked it with a trident.
He and Perospero were sent flying backward together, slamming into the wall of the Mirror World.
"Brûlée!"
Ye Zhuo grabbed Brûlée by the scruff of the neck.
He unleashed his Conqueror's Haki, causing everyone present to pass out instantly.
Only Big Mom and Katakuri managed to maintain their consciousness.
"I'll kill you, you're the strawberry cake!"
Big Mom had already grown thin enough to look like she was only fifty years old.
It seemed that the leaner she became, the younger she appeared.
"Kill me? You stupid thing, who gave you the courage?"
Brûlée collapsed to the ground.
She obediently opened up a mirror space.
It pointed directly to the largest pirate ship in Totto Land.
Ye Zhuo's palm was even larger than Big Mom's torso.
He unleashed a massive slap.
"Insolent!"
Big Mom was confident she could block this blow.
She struck back with a palm of her own.
Her entire face distorted accordingly as she flew toward the mirror.
Swish!
Coughing up blood, Big Mom appeared on the Queen Mama Chanter.
She stood there in a daze for a moment before getting to her feet and looking at Ye Zhuo, who was leisurely stepping out of the mirror.
Zeus, Prometheus, and Napoleon all started to tremble.
"That guy is here again! So terrifying!"
The thundercloud Zeus screamed. If Big Mom was the "Evil God" in the words of the Giant Tribe and the "Natural Destroyer" in the eyes of the world,
then Ye Zhuo was a thorough Lord of Hell and King of Devils!
"Don't come over here!"
The hat-sword Napoleon ached all over.
He felt that being slapped across the face a few more times by Ye Zhuo would probably cost him his life.
"Mama, snap out of it!"
The giant fireball Prometheus shuddered.
Despite being a fireball, he felt unusually cold.
"Strawberry cake!"
Big Mom screamed again and slashed out with a sword.
She had already grown thin enough to look only forty years old.
Her skin had even tightened up instead.
Her gaze was fierce, marking her as a vicious person.
"It is time to snap out of it!"
Ye Zhuo kicked one foot toward the sky.
It transformed into a battle-ax in the sky and then turned into a giant's foot.
It descended from the heavens!
Bang!
Because of that kick, the massive Queen Mama Chanter went crack and split in two.
Big Mom, who had just been swinging her sword, was struck along with her thundercloud by the half of the pirate ship.
The moment she was about to sink into the seabed,
Prometheus accelerated frantically, turning into a dark cloud that flew out from a corner.
"Mama, snap out of it!"
"Damn it, damn it, this guy's combat power is simply too strong!"
"His Haki is even more terrifying than Mama's, and his strength is overwhelming as well!"
"Prometheus, quickly take Mama away from here!"
The three strongest Homies created by Charlotte Linlin using souls had long since snapped out of it.
If they kept fighting, they would all die.
Swish!
The thundercloud Zeus took to the air, using his own lightning and Prometheus's flames to accelerate.
They attempted to escape with all their might.
Big Mom, sitting mournfully on the dark cloud, slowly stood up and changed direction once again.
Once she was sober, any Homies had to obey orders!
"Too slow. Fighting like this is not the slightest bit interesting."
Ye Zhuo looked at Big Mom.
At this moment, Big Mom had thinned down to her optimal state.
She had reverted to how she looked in her early twenties, the appearance she had when she joined the Rocks Pirates.
Both her looks and figure were at their absolute peak!
Even more terrifyingly,
Big Mom, driven mad by her eating disorder, had completely snapped out of it at this moment.
She stared furiously at Ye Zhuo.
Slapped awake from a state of madness!
Big Mom was filled with irrepressible rage, and Prometheus atop her head transformed into flaming hair.
"I am going to make you die!"
"Lightning Sword!"
Big Mom fused lightning, flames, sword, and Haki together.
She slashed out with a sword in her strongest mad state.
"Taste this!"
Ye Zhuo's two fists plunged down from the dark clouds, clutching lightning and flames in his hands.
"That is!"
On the deck of the half-sinking pirate ship.
Katakuri sat slumped in the corner in disarray.
Brûlée and he looked up at the sky together.
They only saw two fists, each larger than Cake Island, coming down wreathed in lightning and flames.
Boom!
Everyone within Totto Land was drawn to this scene.
They looked up in unison.
Big Mom roared like a madwoman!
Yet beneath those dual fists, she was as minuscule as a grain of sand.
"Suck it up and sink to the bottom of the sea, Big Mom!
Let no pirate in the New World ever dare declare war on me again!
From here on out, it shall be the Demon King Era that belongs to me!"
King of the World Rocks died, and even his legend was erased.
One Piece Roger used his life to open the Great Pirate Era, marching generously to his death.
Each new generation of waves pushes the one before it.
This was already the new era of the Demon King Ye Zhuo!
Rumble!
Thunder roared, and the darkness was utterly shattered in that instant.
Whoosh!
Flames scorched, setting a passionate fire within all impossibilities.
Big Mom was defeated by the dual fists at the very height of her prime.
She lasted less than a single breath.
Her face was flattened by the strike as she spat a mouthful of blood and plummeted from the high altitude into the sea!
Flame and thunder blasted open the ocean.
A massive thunderstorm fireball exploded on the surface of the sea.
The scorching high temperature evaporated a vast amount of seawater in a single instant.
Water vapor rose into the air, turning into a sky full of white fog.
Ye Zhuo in white gradually returned to his normal human form.
The Demon King Ye Zhuo fluttered his dual wings, clashing with his own two fists.
"Even if you are the other half transformed by the Tiger Talisman, you are still the Demon King!"
"Regardless of good or evil, you and I are both the Demon King!"
The very instant they fused.
The white light faded slightly.
Ye Zhuo flapped his dual wings, his robes snapping in the wind.
The sea breeze ruffled his hair.
The corners of his mouth upturned in a slight smile:
"The Four Emperors are long outdated."
