While Zesi and Perospero were talking, Katakuri also began his journey from Whole Cake Island.
Goodness, this expedition boasts an incredibly strong lineup.
First, the main commander is Katakuri, one of the Four Sweet Commanders of the Big Mom Pirates.
The strongest member of the Charlotte Family in this generation.
Next up is Cracker, also one of the Four Sweet Commanders, and Charlotte Snack, who just became Sweet Commander.
Three of the Big Mom Pirates' Admiral Sweet Commanders were dispatched at once.
This shows just how determined Bigmoon was to win this battle.
Besides the Three Sweet Commanders, there are also powerful figures from the Charlotte Family such as Charlotte Daifuku and Charlotte Oven.
They marched in with a massive force of 100,000 men.
"Heh, what a massive fleet!"
"With such a massive army, and each warship staffed with highly capable individuals, conventional strategies are largely ineffective."
"Looks like we'll have to rely on our abilities."
They watched as the Big Mom Pirates fleet charged towards them.
The members of the First Division couldn't help but say.
"Last time, we only managed to catch them off guard and easily win the battle because we took advantage of their carelessness. Now, they are well-prepared and have so many Devil Fruit User. In the face of such overwhelming power, strategy is useless," Benn Beckman said with a smile.
"Oh, so we're going to go all in then," Shanks said with a smile, seemingly unconcerned.
"Wait a minute, although we don't have a great strategy, we're not going to just charge in! Please, Bear!" Benn Beckman said to Bear beside him.
"No problem!" Xiong said with a slight smile.
As they were speaking, the bear vanished from their sight in an instant.
"I see them!"
"This time they don't seem to be playing any tricks; they're just setting up a battle formation and waiting for us!"
"We have a large force, and so many Devil Fruit User. Even if there's some kind of conspiracy, it won't make a difference."
"Don't be careless. Judging from the intelligence from the last battle, the enemy's combat strength is not weak. Although our forces are much stronger than theirs, if we are careless, we may lose. Don't forget, they are the Azure Emperor Pirates. Just that name is enough to make us go all out!" Katakuri said, drawing his trident.
Upon hearing Katakuri's words, everyone became serious.
Katakuri is right.
The other side is the Azure Emperor Pirates.
The name alone was enough to make them take it extremely seriously.
Because the lessons of the past are right before their eyes.
Even with such a large army and powerful warriors, we still cannot be careless. "If you wanted to travel, where would you like to go?"
Just then, a voice suddenly rang out from within the Big Mom Pirates ' fleet.
Upon hearing the voice, a member of the Charlotte Family turned around to look.
Then a huge figure suddenly appeared behind him.
A palm struck him.
This member of the Charlotte Family reacted very quickly, immediately becoming alert and raising his hand to block in the moment of crisis.
He prepared to block the palm strike.
With a loud "bang!"
Everyone around stared in astonishment, their mouths agape.
"Lord Nusstorte!" Everyone exclaimed in astonishment, their mouths agape.
Charlotte Sturdy, the twelfth son of Big Mom, vanished into thin air before their very eyes with that single blow.
"Damn it, it's Bear! Where did you take Sturdy?" Charlotte Moscato shouted from the same ship. The reply was, "If you want to travel, where would you like to go?" Bear appeared instantly, slapping down with a paw.
The next moment, Charlotte Moscato was also sent flying, disappearing from everyone's sight.
After knocking Charlotte Moscato, the bear disappeared from everyone's sight and then reappeared on another ship.
"What's going on?" Charlotte Daifuku asked from his boat.
"Lord Dosmarche!" Amid the commotion, another member of the Big Mom Pirates exclaimed.
" Dosmarche? What happened?!" Daifuku asked loudly.
"It's terrible! Lord Nusstorte, Moscato, and Lord Dosmarche have been sent flying! It's a bear, Tyrant Bartholomew Kuma!" someone reported.
" Tyrant Kuma!" Daifuku exclaimed, his expression changing.
"Damn it, is that the Tyrant Kuma who defeated Brother Pero and sent Brother Pero flying somewhere?" Oven said from the side.
"How dare he intrude into our fleet alone! He has some nerve! We absolutely cannot let him get away with this!" Daifuku said furiously.
"If you were to travel, where would you like to go?" Just then, a huge figure appeared out of thin air and asked Daifuku Oven.
" High Heat Slash!" Seeing the bear appear, Oven didn't say a word, directly picked up his weapon, a large sword, and unleashed a slash with terrifying high temperature wrapped around it.
A slash carrying extreme heat, like a flame, came hurtling towards the bear.
The bear raised its palm and unleashed a High Heat Slash.
The High Heat Slash was deflected by his Paw-Paw Fruit and slashed towards the Big Mom Pirate Ship next to him.
"Boom!" The pirate ship was hit by the High Heat Slash and exploded.
"What?" Oven exclaimed in surprise as his attack struck the bear's paw but was bounced back.
"Is it the power of the Paw-Paw Fruit? I didn't expect it could even reflect a slash with high temperature!" Oven said in disbelief, looking at the ship that had been hit by his attack.
" Oven, watch out!" Daifuku exclaimed at that moment.
Upon hearing Daifuku's warning, Oven looked around and realized that the bear had vanished from their sight.
Oven immediately realized something was wrong, and without turning around, he slashed his sword behind him.
But before Oven's blade could strike, the bear's enormous hand slammed down.
"Bang!" Before the bear's paw could even touch Oven, Oven was sent flying by a single blow.
Because the bear was only slapping at the air next to Oven.
"If you were to travel, where would you choose?" The bear raised its huge paw again and slapped at Daifuku.
