Old Hag! I Am the Pirate King's Right Hand

At the sound of that voice, everyone turned their eyes toward the entrance.

They immediately saw Moonlight walking in, Kusanagi Sword in hand.

That slash just now had been his doing!

"Moonlight, Vice-Captain of the Straw Hat Pirates!"

Everyone was shocked at the sight.

Even Big Mom turned to look at him.

"Weren't you fighting Katakuri? Where is Katakuri?"

Oven suddenly thought of something. Looking at Moonlight, his face changed drastically! Daifuku also trembled all over, staring at Moonlight in disbelief.

Katakuri had appeared just moments ago to intercept Moonlight, yet Moonlight was here now while Katakuri was nowhere to be seen. What did that mean? Neither of them wanted to believe it!

"Him... he's probably not doing too well."

Moonlight shrugged.

After he unleashed Myriad Swords Return to Origin, Katakuri had used his Devil Fruit Awakening ability, but it had already been too late. He was forcibly restrained by Sword Aura and swiftly defeated.

Then Moonlight's gaze fell on Big Mom.

One of the four emperors ruling the New World, and the only woman among them! Her strength was beyond question. Even when Luffy activated Gear Fourth, he had not possessed the slightest ability to fight back before her! It was not that Luffy was weak, but that Big Mom was too strong!

"Even Katakuri was defeated? As expected of the man who forged a Black Blade! How about it? Isn't it frustrating, following someone so weak? Why not come over to my side, Moonlight?"

Hearing this, Big Mom looked at him and directly extended an invitation.

She was actually inviting Moonlight aboard her ship.

"Mother!"

Oven and Daifuku were stunned. What was Mother doing? "Moonlight!"

Luffy also looked over, but he had exhausted too much strength and had no power left! "Old hag! I'm the Pirate King's right hand! What the hell are you to think you're worthy of inviting me aboard?"

Yet without even a moment's thought, Moonlight sneered at Big Mom and flatly rejected her!

As the Pirate King's Vice-Captain, how could he possibly be compared to one of the Four Emperors?

"Old hag?"

At those words, everyone around them sucked in a sharp breath! Moonlight had actually called Big Mom an old hag? "Mother!"

Oven and Daifuku hurriedly looked at Big Mom as well!

That was what Mother hated being called most!

"Ha ha... ha ha... ha..."

"You think the likes of you can become the Pirate King?"

Big Mom burst into laughter, her voice incomparably shrill and piercing. Her Emperor Sword came slashing down!

She was truly enraged!

First, Luffy had wreaked havoc here and turned everything into a complete mess. Now Moonlight had actually called her an old hag to her face! And he even dared to dream of becoming king, right in front of her! She was one of the Four Emperors, a sovereign who ruled over these seas! "Perfect timing!"

Moonlight's eyes gleamed. Armament Haki wrapped around him as Kusanagi Sword slashed forward! He had long wanted to see just how strong a Four Emperor truly was!

Crack!

The two swords collided in an instant! Sizzle!

Sizzle!

Sparks of electricity burst out between them.

Then, a dark-blue, tyrannical aura erupted from Moonlight's body!

At the same time, a dark-purple, tyrannical aura erupted from Big Mom's body! One dark blue and one dark purple, the two Conqueror's Haki clashed violently! Boom!

The room instantly exploded as though it had been struck by Thunder-Fire Explosives! Centered on the two of them, the blast spread in every direction! Almost instantly, the entire castle collapsed!

At the same time, countless people within a thousand-meter radius fell to the ground, fainting, foaming at the mouth, and losing consciousness.

"Conqueror's Haki!"

Terror flashed across Daifuku and Oven's faces, and they staggered backward beneath the terrifying aura.

The clash of their Conqueror's Haki had already caused tangible damage to the surroundings!

It was not just them. As the castle collapsed, everyone nearby witnessed the scene as well.

Cries of shock rose one after another. Katakuri, Cracker, and Smoothie had especially rushed over at this moment, and when they saw it, their pupils contracted:

"That's Mother!"

"What terrifying Conqueror's Haki!"

"A clash between two Conqueror's Haki!"

Within a thousand-meter radius, only the strong could remain conscious and standing. Yet even they were deeply shaken by the sight!

"Look!"

"The clouds in the sky... have split apart!"

Just then, someone suddenly shouted.

Everyone looked up and saw the clouds above the two of them split apart at once.

The sea of clouds churned and surged in all directions! ...

"What's going on? What happened to the clouds over there?"

Meanwhile, at Germa 66's location.

Sanji was arguing with his father Judge and his three brothers, Ichiji, Yonji, and Niji. They had even come to blows.

Judge in particular had a violent temper. Faced with the stubborn Sanji, he directly attacked.

However, Sanji had mostly been dodging. He did not strike back against his biological father. Although Judge's attacks were as fierce as a storm with the aid of his high-tech Raid Suit, Sanji did not fall behind in the slightest.

Just then, Reiju suddenly stood up in shock and pointed at the distant sea of clouds.

Hearing this, the two stopped fighting and hurriedly looked over.

Ichiji, Yonji, and Niji also gazed into the distance!

They immediately saw the distant sea of clouds split apart! The clouds churned and roiled endlessly! In particular, a powerful Sword Aura burst forth, perceptible even from an enormous distance! "This is bad! Straw Hat Kid, captain of the Straw Hat Pirates, and Vice-Captain Moonlight have gone to war with Big Mom!"

At the same time, a Germa soldier hurried forward to report.

"What? They went to war directly?"

"The Straw Hat Pirates actually dared to go to war with Big Mom? What a bunch of reckless fools!"

"They're courting death!"

Upon hearing the news, Yonji and the others sneered.

What kind of person was Big Mom? Was she someone they could simply choose to wage war against?

Besides, with only a handful of people, they were simply seeking death!

Judge sneered as well, looking disdainfully at Sanji.

"A worthless man's companions are just as worthless. They actually..."

Before he could finish, another soldier stepped forward to report, "Straw Hat Kid, captain of the Straw Hat Pirates, and Vice-Captain Moonlight have already broken into Big Mom's castle. Vice-Captain Moonlight defeated one of the Three Sweet Commanders and is now fighting Big Mom on equal footing!"

Upon hearing this, Judge swallowed the rest of his words.

Yonji and the others sucked in sharp breaths! This...

Reiju looked at the soldier in disbelief.

"What did you say?"
