Big Mom

Biodata

Background

Linlin once sailed with Rocks, Whitebeard, and Kaido. She later became one of the Four Emperors and established her rule over Totto Land. She has eighty-five children, several of whom hold senior positions in the Big Mom Pirates 2 103 119.

Personality

Big Mom is fiercely protective of her territory and quick to attack an intruder: she strikes at Dongze before learning why he has come to Whole Cake Island. When his counterattack threatens the island, she regains her composure and directs her crew’s defenses 102. She is also willing to make concessions for her children’s survival, yielding access to her Treasure Room when Dongze threatens them 104.

Her ambition extends beyond defending Totto Land. She wants to become Pirate King and pursues alliances when she judges Dongze or the awakened Luffy too dangerous to face alone 101 103 186. Her authority over her family can be intimidating: Smoothie fears that being Big Mom’s daughter would not protect her if she defied her 106 182.

Story Role / Major Arcs

• Dongze’s arrival in Totto Land: After learning that Dongze badly wounded Kaido and may be able to suppress Devil Fruit powers, Big Mom proposes an alliance with Whitebeard and Kaido. Dongze reaches Whole Cake Island first; their battle destroys roughly a fifth of it. She ultimately allows him into her Treasure Room to protect her children 100 101 102 103 104.
• Smoothie’s wooden sword: Big Mom tries to infuse Dongze’s gift to Smoothie with a soul, triggering sealed Sword Intent that freezes the room. She escapes and orders Smoothie to study the sword for the crew’s benefit 106.
• Alliance against Dongze: Big Mom brings Whitebeard and Kaido together again after Dongze’s attack on Mary Geoise. She argues that their combined Haki offers a chance against his Devil Fruit-suppressing ability 119.
• The new generation: Luffy’s awakened power overwhelms Big Mom at Whole Cake Island, though Smoothie helps drive off the Straw Hats. Big Mom then joins Kaido against Luffy in Wano, where Trafalgar Law defeats her 186 187.
