Big Mom's counterattacks are getting weaker and weaker.
Bullet and Roy actually worked together more and more seamlessly.
Roy didn't want anyone else to get hurt by Big Mom's desperate counterattack.
Bullet launched a fierce attack from the front, his giant fist in White Tiger Model landing blow after blow, drawing all of Linlin's attention.
Taking advantage of the moment when Linlin was distracted by Bullet, Roy Spatial Translocation behind Linlin.
The Shusui Blade was wreathed in Conqueror's Haki, and with its Telekinesis combined with the Words Become Law "Command: Armor Break!", it weakened Linlin's defense the moment the blade touched her skin.
The blade struck Linlin in the back.
With one slash—blood splattered everywhere.
Linlin let out a scream.
The cut wasn't deep; it just grazed the skin, causing a bead of blood to seep out.
But this was the first time in her life that she had truly broken down.
From birth until now, Linlin's Iron Balloon has never been broken by anyone.
He was unharmed when he killed Giant Tribe hero at the age of five, fought for decades in the Rocks Pirates without injury, and remained unharmed even after being the Emperor of the Sea for so many years.
Today, Roy inflicted her first wound.
"Mama--!!!"
Linlin turned around in a rage, Napoleon began to dance wildly.
In her enraged state, Linlin's attack power surged, and Napoleon unleashed a frenzied barrage of attacks fueled by Conqueror's Haki and the power of his soul.
Roy didn't take the attack head-on; instead, he used Telekinesis: Barrier and spatial teleportation to weave back and forth through Linlin's enraged attacks.
Hawk Eyes caught the moment when Linlin was distracted by her rage.
He raised the Black Blade Yoru high above his head, concentrating all his strength into this single strike.
The Haki emanating from the blade was concentrated to its extreme, causing the air around the blade to distort.
Black Blade - Absolute.
The world's number one slash has been unleashed.
The black blade of light silently sliced through the air, moving at a slow speed, but the oppressive feeling made the surrounding air freeze.
The blade struck Linlin precisely in the chest.
A gash was cut into the Iron Balloon.
Blood gushed from the wound, the dark red blood splattering onto the ice, staining a large area red.
Linlin swayed.
She looked down at the wound on her chest, at the blood flowing from her body, her eyes filled with confusion and disbelief.
"How is this possible... my skin... how could this be..."
Before she could finish speaking, her legs gave way.
Linlin fell off Zeus's back and crashed heavily onto the ice.
The ice surface cracked open as her heavy body slammed into it, sending shards of ice flying everywhere.
She lay on the ice, the blood flowing from her chest spreading across the white surface, a horrifying sight.
Prometheus's flames were completely extinguished, turning into an ordinary fireball Homies, which lay motionless beside her.
Zeus also transformed back into a normal Thundercloud Homies, lying beside her, and the Inazuma stopped flashing.
Napoleon reverted to his normal hat-knife form, and the face on the blade closed its eyes.
As their master weakened, the three Homies simultaneously entered a state of hibernation.
Linlin lay on the ice, panting heavily.
She tried to get up, bracing herself on the ice with her arms, but her body was too heavy, and she couldn't manage it after several attempts.
Roy walked up to her and looked down at her.
Linlin raised her head, her bloodshot eyes still holding madness, but even more so, a stubborn refusal to accept her fate.
"Little brat... you think... this is the end of it?" Linlin's voice was broken and intermittent.
"It's over," Roy said.
The Conqueror's Haki Coating around her fingertips, and a Mental Shock shot straight into Linlin's brain.
Linlin's pupils dilated.
Her last vestiges of consciousness were shattered by the Mental Shock, and her eyes slowly closed.
Big Mom, Charlotte Linlin, is in a coma.
Roy took out the Seastone chain from his storage bag.
The chain was specially made, with each link crafted from the purest Seastone.
It is specifically designed to seal the power of Devil Fruit User.
He crouched down and wrapped the chains around Linlin's limbs and torso.
With each chain tightened, one could feel the immense power within Linlin being suppressed.
"Take him back to Hachinosu," Roy said to Bullet as he stood up.
Bullet walked over, bent down, and hoisted Linlin onto his shoulder.
"That old woman is fucking heavy."
Bullet muttered something, adjusted his shoulder, and carried Linlin toward the direction of Ark Zhenyin.
Roy sheathed his sword and looked at the distant ice surface.
The ships of the Totto Land fleet are slowly moving out of the frozen sea.
After Aokiji left, the freezing air gradually dissipated, the ice began to melt, and the ships were able to move again.
The Beasts Pirates are cleaning up the battlefield.
The wounded were carried away, the bodies on the ground were collected, and the weapons and supplies on the ice were gathered.
Jack stood at the entrance to the harbor, his double sickles planted in the ice, looking at a statistics table in his hand.
His face was expressionless, but his brows were furrowed deeply—the casualties were considerable.
Queen directed his men to move the captured supplies, muttering, "This cannon is pretty good," and "This ammunition will last us a while."
Jhin jumped off the Pluton deck and walked to Roy's side.
" Katakuri were let go," King said. " Kaido gave the order."
"I know." Roy nodded.
He watched the sails of the Totto Land fleet disappearing on the distant sea, without saying much.
Kaido released them, Roy had no objection.
This is Kaido's territory. The Beasts Pirates fought this battle and contributed their efforts.
Kaido wants to repay a favor from back then, and Roy doesn't need to stop him.
Moreover, the Totto Land Fleet is currently leaderless, and it's uncertain whether Katakuri can maintain order.
Letting them go back and process things internally for a while might not be a bad thing for Hachinosu.
Roy turned around and looked at Pluton.
The massive black warship sat silently on the edge of the cliff, its dark hull reflecting a cold light in the sunlight.
The people of Hachinosu couldn't help but take a second look at Pluton when they first saw him.
Tesoro floated beside Pluton, forgetting to flash the lightning around him.
"This thing... it's way too big," Tesoro muttered.
"If you put the Ark Zhenyin next to it, it'll be a small boat." Crocodile, with a cigar in his mouth, looked up at the hull of Pluton ' ship.
Hawk Eyes stood below the bow of the Pluton ship, looking up at the ridiculously large main cannon.
His expression remained as calm as ever, but a glint of light flashed in his hawk-like eyes.
Roy jumped onto the deck of Pluton, looked around at the Ancient Weapon, and a slight smile appeared on his lips.
Pluton is in hand.
Big Mom has been captured.
This battle was worth fighting.
Tesoro piloted the Ark Maxim to slowly descend onto the deck of Pluton.
The bottom of the golden spaceship made a dull metallic clang when it touched the deck of Pluton.
Tesoro brought the spaceship to a steady stop, and the lightning around him gradually subsided.
Bullet carried Linlin across the gangplank and put her down on the deck.
Linlin, unconscious and bound by Seastone chains, lay motionless on the Pluton deck.
Lock her in the bottom cabin.
Roy said,
Send more people to keep an eye on things.
Although she was locked in with Seastone, the old woman's physical condition was still abnormal; an ordinary cell couldn't contain her.
Bullet nodded, picked up Linlin, and headed towards the lower deck.
Tesoro floated to Roy's side, toying with a gold coin in his hand.
"Boss, shall we head straight back to Hachinosu?"
"Yes." Roy nodded.
We'll take Pluton back with us too. Let Master Tom see if we can replicate it."
"Such a big ship, being towed by air?"
Tesoro glanced at Pluton's size, then at his own Ark Maxim, his expression somewhat subtle.
"I'll do it," Roy said.
His Telekinesis surged from his body, enveloping the entire Pluton Battleship like an invisible giant hand.
The boat shuddered slightly, then slowly moved away from the ice.
The ice shards on the ice were blown about by the wind stirred up by the Telekinesis, and some supplies that had not yet been collected were almost blown away.
The Pluton Battleship slowly rose into the air, enveloped in Telekinesis.
