Three Thousand Miles

Atlas focused his mind and forcefully gathered the Flame Dragon's body together, making it even larger, and it circled back to Atlas's side.

Thunder against thunder! Fire against fire!

BIG MOM gains absolutely nothing!

"You wretched brat!"

Broccoli Island.

Smoker and the other marines had gradually recovered from the Conqueror's Haki's Haki they had just experienced, and they all turned their attention to the port.

"Sir, should we go and capture Katakuri?"

Smoker turned his head and looked at the marine who had spoken with an expression that suggested he was an idiot.

"Arrest him? Who's going?"

Upon hearing this, all the naval personnel present lowered their heads in silence.

Just kidding, they almost couldn't even withstand the opponent's Conqueror's Haki, and now they have regained their mobility, so the means they can use are not limited to Conqueror's Haki.

Even though Atlas had already crippled one of his arms, dealing with these small fry was still a piece of cake.

"By the way, Smoker, should we call Marineford and report the situation here?"

Smoker Kyros nearby, asked Smoker with some concern.

"I just called the Sengoku Admiral, but..."

Smoker shook his head, a hint of embarrassment flashing across his face. "He said there's simply no one to send reinforcements right now. Vice Admiral Garp and Vice Admiral Akainu n't at the base; they're both out on missions. Sengoku Admiral has already ordered them to come here as soon as possible."

On the massive Queen Mama Chanter.

Katakuri, who had regained his mobility, leaned against the cabin wall with a gloomy expression, holding Smoothie was already lifeless, in his arms.

He thought he was doomed; Atlas's final strike was something he couldn't possibly withstand in his current state.

Unexpectedly, Smoothie rushed forward and shielded him from the fatal blow with her body.

Damn navy...

Katakuri stared at the battlefield where thunder roared in the distance, gritting his teeth in fury.

They looked as if they wanted to devour Atlas alive!

Chapter 216 of the book group (9?8, 02:0.5.8) 5/6: Terror Defense

"Oh my god! White Hou, you've really angered me!"

BIG MOM stared fiercely at Atlas, then stretched out his thick, fat hand and yanked it off his head!

The enormous captain's hat was held tightly in his hand, revealing a purple turban with yellow spots that was tightly wrapped around his head.

Napoleon!

"Yes, Mom!"

The pink captain's hat quickly transformed and elongated, revealing a long, gleaming sword in his hand.

BIG MOM gripped the hilt of the sword with both hands, stepped back, and assumed a forward slashing motion, making his thick arms appear even larger.

Swish--!!

[Emperor Sword - Destruction Blade]!!!

The long sword swung down suddenly, creating a terrifying shockwave that swept in all directions. The air groaned as if it were about to collapse under the weight of the attack, and the piercing shriek seemed to penetrate one's eardrums.

Clang--!!

Atlas didn't sit idly by. He drew his sword, Futsu-no-Mitama, from his waist, and Armament Haki quickly enveloped him. With a flick of his blade, he struck first despite being behind!

Clang--!!!

A crisp metallic clang rang out as blades clashed wildly, sparks flying as flowing Armament Haki rubbed against each other like jagged teeth.

"BIG MOM..."

Atlas's eyes widened, veins bulged on his neck, his teeth clenched, and his body slowly rose, completely gaining the upper hand.

Bang!!

A tremendous force shoved BIG MOM's enormous body away!

At the same time, with flashes of light and rampant sword energy, Atlas forcefully stopped his momentum, lunged forward, and swung his sword again!

"One Sword Style the Climbing the Tower!!"

A gleaming blade flashed and slashed diagonally at BIG MOM, its sharpness enough to terrify anyone, as it surged forward relentlessly, attempting to break through BIG MOM's physical defenses.

Laugh--!!

The flash of the blade dissipated, and BIG MOM's clothes were torn open, revealing a shallow bloodstain that ran from her shoulder to her left lower abdomen, the blood almost imperceptible.

"As expected of BIG MOM, known as the Iron Balloon '..."

Atlas's pupils contracted upon seeing this.

Although he only used the most basic hardening techniques due to time constraints, the combination with the Futsu-no-Mitama was sharp enough to cut through gold and jade.

Even Kaido needs to be covered in Armament Haki to withstand the physical attacks!

And before us is BIG MOM...

If Atlas wasn't mistaken, this guy hadn't even used Armament Haki!

That's incredibly presumptuous!

"Hey kid, it's not too late to surrender now! I'm not some trash Kaido!"

Big Mom glanced at the wound in front of her, now only a white mark, and suddenly gripped Napoleon tightly, raising it high above her head!

Invisible ripples spread outwards, and intense sword energy waves rippled around them.

Buzz--!!!

As the longsword swung down, a powerful Impact of sword energy surged forth, faster than Thunderbolt, and its range, resembling a thick column of water, made it difficult to dodge!

[Ikoku]!!!

Also Elbaph Spear, it is a unique move of the Giant Tribe, and it's unknown how Big Mom learned it.

"No enemy is spared, no one is cut down..."

Atlas gripped the Futsu-no-Mitama horizontally in front of him. His muscles bulged, and black and red Armament Haki instantly wrapped around the blade, his Haki flowing throughout his body.

"One Sword Style Secret Art Technique: Blood-Red Skyline!!!"

The longsword slashed out, the blood-red strike wreathed in black and red Armament Haki, meeting the massive Impact of the sword energy!

Swish--!!

The slash was swift and unstoppable, instantly cutting through the Impact in the middle. The terrifying energy slid to both sides and plunged into the sea below, stirring up thousands of white waves!

The crimson slash continued its relentless advance, like a shooting star streaking across the sky, instantly reaching BIG MOM.

"Mama mama mama! Mother Flame!!"

BIG MOM yanked Prometheus aside, and a large amount of flames instantly coated the blade. The blade and the scorching heat merged, destruction and annihilation intertwined, and he raised his sword to parry!

Clang--!!

In an instant, light and darkness shifted, and the entire world fell silent, as if a black hole had collapsed, and the collision in that instant unleashed countless Inazuma.

The unwavering belief in severing everything pierced through the strike, and the terrifying thrust continuously tilted the scales of victory!

When Zephyr was teaching Atlas about Haki, he said, "Unwavering belief is power!!"

It's very idealistic, but it's a profound truth.

"You brat!! I'm the Emperor of the Sea!!"

BIG MOM's eyes were bloodshot, and she kept roaring. Her purple eyeshadow was smudged with sweat, and the scarf wrapped around her head had disappeared. Her messy pink hair clung to her scalp, making her look like a shrewish woman cursing in the street.

"I'll show you what true power is!"

With a roar, BIG MOM once again drew upon the purple Thunderbolt, pouring it madly onto Napoleon!

Bang!!

A powerful force was unleashed, cleaving the crimson slash in two, which continued its trajectory backward without diminishing its momentum.

New World, in the Unknown Sea.

A blood-stained warship lay slowly at rest on the sea, surrounded by wreckage and raging flames. The words 'G-7' were etched on the side of the warship.

G-7 base is the very base under the command of Candidate Admiral Akainu, a candidate for the Navy!

At this moment, on the warship.

Akainu stood ramrod straight on the deck, his expression cold and aloof, arms crossed.

Beside him stood a navy man with a world-weary face, furrowed brows, and a helmet adorned with a double-headed dragon design; his expression was fierce.

"Onigumo, are these scumbags the masterminds behind this child abduction incident?"

Akainu tilted his head slightly, looking at Onigumo, who served as his Aide-de-Camp.

"That's right, but there's also a group of slave traders cooperating with them."

The Onigumo nodded in response.

His current rank is Marine Headquarters Rear Admiral. He was spotted by Akainu back in the training camp, and after a period of training after graduation, he was finally promoted by Akainu to be the ship's Aide-de-Camp.

Like Akainu, he is Hawk Faction within the Navy.

"The rest is up to you. Just remember one thing..."

Akainu paused slightly, then added, "There's no need to leave any room for leniency when dealing with evil!!"

"The Sengoku Admiral just called, but you were busy annihilating the Pirates, so I didn't tell you."

"What is it?"

"They say that Vice Admiral White Hou is engaged in battle with Big Mom, and they want you to go and provide support if possible."

Where is the battle taking place?

"Near Broccoli Island..."

"Go support White Hou first, put everything else aside for now."

Akainu acted decisively, issuing orders to Onigumo.

"But..."

"Given our current distance from Broccoli Island, even if we rush there at full speed, we won't make it in time."

Sailing takes time, and the journey is not always smooth sailing. Given the unpredictable weather of the New World, encountering extreme weather such as storms is common.

Therefore, Onigumo can only estimate the time by taking a compromise approach.

Chapter 217 Three Thousand Miles

"Even if we can't make it in time, we have to go and provide support. After all, Atlas spent some time on my ship, and besides..."

Akainu unconsciously straightened his hat brim and said in a deep voice.

"If we could capture Big Mom this time..."

As soon as he finished speaking, a deep, murderous aura emanated from him, and his sharp eyes were shrouded in heavy shadows.

"Yes, sir!"

Onigumo stood upright and gave Akainu a solemn military salute.

He then turned around, took a deep breath, and exhaled, causing a thunderous roar to resound throughout the entire ship.

"All personnel, depart immediately and rush to Broccoli Island!!"

In an instant, all naval orders were obeyed without question, and everyone returned to their posts at top speed, with the ships quickly getting into motion.
