"Mom!"
"Mom!"
The moment this sword strike fell, everyone across the island cried out in shock.
Even Katakuri turned to look, his pupils shrinking sharply in astonishment.
Big Mom had actually been injured!
This was the first time it had happened since Big Mom became one of the Four Emperors!
"Mom is hurt! Straw Hat Vice-Captain Moonlight did it!"
"How is that possible? Someone on the seas can actually hurt Mom!"
Daifuku, Oven, and the others were utterly stunned. "He actually injured Big Mom!"
The five members of Germa 66 could not help sucking in a breath at the sight.
Though they were furious over Big Mom's scheme, they had never doubted her strength!
Yet someone like her had been wounded by Moonlight. How shocking was that?
"This guy's strength is unfathomable!"
Judge's pupils contracted sharply as well.
"Moonlight!"
Even Sanji and the others were immensely shocked.
Had Moonlight defeated Big Mom just like that?
"As expected of Moonlight. He seized that moment perfectly. Even Big Mom was no match for him!"
Capone Bege nodded, satisfaction flashing across his face.
Big Mom had a fatal weakness: once Nun's photograph was broken, her incomparably resilient body would become extremely weak. That was the best time to deal with Big Mom! It was precisely because of this weakness that he had been confident in facing Big Mom!
Moonlight's strength had already been on par with Big Mom's, and now that he had found her weakness, Big Mom naturally stood no chance! The results were clear before them! Big Mom had been seriously injured, and the entire Whole World would be shaken!
Even the entire New World would be thrown into a raging storm! "As expected of that man. Even Big Mom is no match for him!"
"It seems the outcome has already been decided!"
Stussy and the other big shots of the underworld could not help marveling at the sight.
Stussy in particular had a gleam in her eyes. If he could even injure one of the Four Emperors, what was there that this man could not do?
"You damned brat!"
At that moment, Big Mom, whose body had been pierced by the sword and who had suffered grave injuries, let out an earth-shaking howl. She then grabbed Emperor Sword and slashed at Moonlight!
Clang!
Moonlight raised his sword to meet the attack. The two blades collided, and immense force burst outward.
That single strike naturally could not kill Big Mom!
It had merely wounded her severely!
Big Mom still retained formidable strength. After all, she was one of the Four Emperors; how could she be so easily dealt with? But compared to before, it was much easier now.
"Our objective has been achieved. Luffy, Brook, Nami, Sanji, Carrot, Jinbe, take this chance and get out of here quickly."
He immediately looked toward Luffy and the others.
Their real goal was to escape! This was, after all, the territory of one of the Four Emperors. Their numbers were limited, and even if they found Big Mom's weakness, they still could not defeat her!
Thus, this entire plan had only been to seriously injure Big Mom, create chaos, and then escape amid the confusion!
On this day, the main forces and ships from all thirty-four islands had gathered here, making it the time when their defenses were at their weakest. They had to seize this opportunity.
As for killing Big Mom, that was unrealistic! There were nearly twenty ability users on this island right now, along with the Three Sweet Commanders! Unless he could kill Big Mom in an instant, he would not get another chance after one strike!
"Okay."
Hearing this, Luffy and the others immediately nodded to show they understood.
Then they immediately began to act! "Trying to leave? How naive!"
"Straw Hat Kid, stay here!"
Daifuku, Oven, and the others sneered. How could they possibly allow them to leave so easily?
"Watch out!"
But at that moment, Katakuri's warning suddenly rang out. Katakuri abruptly raised his gaze to the sky.
At the same time, after seriously injuring Big Mom with one strike, Moonlight saw that although Big Mom was furious and attacked repeatedly, she was clearly no longer his match. Moonlight did not linger in battle. He seized the opportunity to leap into the air, and in the next instant, countless Sword Auras descended from the sky, blanketing an area a thousand meters wide around the island!
"Not good!"
At the sight, Daifuku, Oven, and the others felt danger rising in their hearts. They hurriedly raised their swords to block the Sword Auras raining down from above! Some of the weaker ones were directly killed by the Sword Auras! When the Sword Auras vanished, Luffy and the others had already disappeared without a trace! They had taken the opportunity to leave!
"What a terrifying Sword Technique. Moonlight truly lives up to his reputation!"
In the distance, Stussy could not help sighing at the sight.
"The Straw Hat Pirates' Vice-Captain truly is formidable. With an enemy like this, it is no wonder the World Government had us do that!"
The others nodded at her words, a sharp gleam flashing through their eyes.
"That's right. It is time for us to act as well!"
Stussy nodded. Their purpose in coming here was not merely to attend Big Mom's tea party.
They had an even more important mission!
As one of CP0, Stussy naturally served the World Government! "Damn it, think you can just leave? Impossible!"
"Mom, how are you?"
"Mom!"
At this point, after the Sword Auras had faded and calm had returned to the island, Katakuri and the others immediately came to Big Mom's side. A ship's doctor had already stepped forward to examine her injuries.
Big Mom was sitting on the ground, her usual bearing gone, weakness showing on her face. She had clearly been badly injured! Hearing them, he shook his head, his expression grave.
"Mom's injuries are extremely serious. She will need at least a month of rest to recover."
"A month? Damn it, he dared to hurt Mom!"
"Chase them! We absolutely cannot let them leave like this!"
Upon hearing this, Daifuku, Oven, and the others were worried but reassured. Then they immediately flew into a rage and prepared to pursue the Straw Hat Crew.
"Watch out!"
However, just as they were worked up and about to act, Katakuri's pupils suddenly shrank. He immediately unleashed his ability, wrapping everyone up and pulling them away from the area in an instant! Then they saw an incomparably massive Sword Aura slash in from the distant sea. In the next moment, it flashed past, and the entire Whole Cake Island was split in two from the middle! Whole Cake Island had cracked apart!
Even the ninety-nine-layer engagement cake, which had taken three months to make, split apart with it!
