Chapter 177: Just an Emperor? We Are The Zodiac!

On Whole Cake Island.

“Hm?”

Big Mom frowned.

Naturally, she didn’t know about the descent of Neverland and the Phantasm Legion, nor the blockade of Totto Land.

To her, she only noticed no Homies or Charlotte Family members arrived through the Mirror Passage.

Simultaneously, as the Soul-Soul Fruit user, she sensed massive numbers of Homies being “Eliminated” throughout Totto Land.

“I see… more than three?”

She looked up at the dreamlike island in the sky.

Despite the extreme distance, she seemed to see the sheep head on the island looking at her from afar.

She could even faintly see the giant tree on Neverland—constantly shedding blue brilliance.

[Phantasm Legion · Tree of Dreams · Infinite Vitality Endowment]

As it shed brilliance.

On the ground of Neverland below, massive “Mirrors of Dreams” stood.

Numerous dream creatures, bathed in blue brilliance, crossed the mirrors to rush to the battlefield.

“Is this your ’Plan’?”

She grinned, muttering in a low voice.

“Part of the plan, I suppose.”

Tori (Rooster) grinned.

Beside him, Inu (Dog) said seriously, “When the Leader makes a plan, being thorough never hurts.”

Yes.

Although in Roy’s cognition, Big Mom was the weakest Emperor due to her personality.

But even so, an Emperor was still an Emperor—no Emperor of the Sea could be taken lightly.

Especially Totto Land, Big Mom’s territory.

Despite her simple death in the original story, the biggest reason was the disadvantageous battle location.

If it were in Totto Land, she wouldn’t have died so easily.

So Big Mom Pirates members, massive Homies—they were all within Roy’s consideration.

Undoubtedly, the plan was executed quite successfully.

Homies, Big Mom Pirates, and external reinforcements were cut off. Only one thing remained.

“Finish you, and the mission is complete.”

Nezumi (Rat) said coldly.

But as the three spoke one after another.

“You three… stop talking to yourselves.”

With a hoarse and dangerous voice, intense spirit and pressure erupted instantly.

ZZZT!

Electricity turned shattered rocks on the ground to dust.

WHOOSH!

Flames evaporated the surrounding air.

Big Mom, holding the long sword and wearing the nun’s habit, now had crimson eyes.

“Killing me a ’Second Time’, plan success… hey, hey, hey, don’t get it wrong.”

The long tongue, hideous face, and violent spirit were enough to explain… what an Emperor of the Sea was!

“Did you think making my children and Homies unable to support leaves me helpless?”

“Who do you think—I Am!?”

As her words fell, she burst out with speed completely unfitting her massive body instantly.

SWISH!

In an instant, she arrived before the three.

“I am… Big Mom! Mamamama!”

“Heavenly Sword · Mother’s Thunder Fire!” (Haha no Hi)

Fire and thunder roared together; “Cronus” slashed down abruptly.

Where the sharp giant sword passed, the screech of air sounded like space being torn apart.

Before the blade arrived—the violent shockwave pressed down first.

That was “Conqueror’s Coating“.

Yes, although the soul dominating this body now was “Charlotte Carmel“.

But due to long soul coexistence, their souls were indistinguishable, different personalities of the same person—combat skills, level, and Haki were identical.

If there was a true difference, it was…

“Compared to that idiot Linlin who was naive despite being a monster…”

Conqueror’s Haki erupted; the ruined ground of Whole Cake Island began to crack and evaporate on a large scale!

Thunder turned into silver snakes, flames into raging waves; her long sword crashed down!

The entire Whole Cake Island caved in instantly—even this capital of Totto Land, reinforced countless times, seemed about to disintegrate.

“I am the true Big Mom, I am stronger than her!”

Big Mom’s hideous grin was almost like a true “Evil God“.

Correct—this was it.

Shattering a mountain with a wave, erasing a village with a strike.

It was this natural, monster-like power that made her never miss her life as “Mother Carmel“.

Naturally “Greedy” and “Evil“, she longed to master this power, and now… she finally got her wish.

“I will ascend the Pirate King’s throne, claiming the world as mine.”

She laughed wildly.

“Just right, the birthday Tea Party is soon—let’s use your blood, The Zodiac’s blood, as my birthday gift… Mamamama… hm?”

But just the next moment, her laughter stuck in her throat.

Because she found…

From the other end of the burning long sword, the sensation wasn’t “Destroying Everything“.

On the contrary.

Three massive forces surged back along the blade frantically.

“Impossible…”

She widened her crimson eyes in shock; the smugness on her face froze instantly, turning into disbelief.

As the dust settled.

The three figures appeared clearly.

WHOOSH!

A surging “Door” in space swallowed the flames.

VMMM!

Shining brilliance in the air ground away the lightning.

CRACK!

A hand wrapped in Flame Clouds, having swallowed 1800 Shadows, crushed the slash.

Three hands held the blade.

“Actually…”

Big Mom widened her eyes incredulously.

Blocked!

Yes—her strike powerful enough to split an island was forcibly blocked in mid-air!

And this was just the beginning…

Because the next moment, the three counterattacked without hesitation.

CLANG!

Nezumi’s hands holding the blade didn’t move, but with a piercing sword hum, a space door and a slash from within struck down from above Big Mom’s head.

BOOM!

Tori’s fist against the blade spine erupted with dazzling brilliance. Hand motionless, he turned his body, a light-speed kick accompanied by wing flaps flew toward Big Mom’s face.

BOOM!

Inu opened his mouth; a pitch-black shadow blade stabbed toward Big Mom’s abdomen.

Seeing this, Big Mom widened her eyes.

But in an instant, she suppressed her surprise, revealing a sneer.

Simultaneously, slash, kick, and shadow blade hit Big Mom’s massive body hard!

Terrifying power and Haki collision erupted more intense aura instantly; the sea around Whole Cake Island trembled violently.

But…

“Mama… I will protect!”

Attacks were blocked by the nun’s habit on Big Mom.

From the habit, Cronus’s hideous face grew out.

“Mamamama!”

Big Mom’s sneer intensified.

“Sorry, your attacks are meaningless. I told you, I am Big Mom.”

An evil god-like physique—Iron Balloon itself was extremely hard to injure.

Plus her Conqueror’s Coating and Armament Haki, her defense was extremely powerful.

Most critically, her strongest Homie “Cronus“, fusing three high-level Homies, had incredibly powerful strength and defense.

But…

“Chirp chirp chirp…”

She heard Tori’s voice.

“Too noisy! Old hag!”

In his eyes, burning fighting spirit was like boiling flames.

As his words fell, Big Mom’s sneer stopped abruptly.

Because she felt it.

Surrounding her body, some indescribable… Coldness.

“Ma… Mama! Something’s wrong!”

Cronus screamed too.

Its nun’s habit, formed by soul and natural elements, almost indestructible… was crumbling slowly under Tori’s kick!

Fizz… Crack!

Observing closely, one would find Tori surrounded by an invisible aura.

As it passed, the thunder and fire formed by souls on Cronus seemed to lose vitality.

“This is…”

Big Mom’s expression changed abruptly.

She paused, wanting to retreat.

But…

“Tori is right.”

She found she couldn’t retreat—countless hands extended around her body, locking her joints.

“Since just now, the one talking to herself… isn’t it you?”

Nezumi’s slash landed on the habit too.

“Ah!”

Accompanying Cronus’s cry of pain, the habit was cut open again.

Finally…

“We acknowledge you are an Emperor of the Sea, but…”

Inu’s chuckling words overlapped.

“Who do you think we are?”

On him, the same cold aura erupted.

SPLAT!

The next moment, the three attacks pierced the habit simultaneously, hitting Big Mom’s body.

Massive force blasted her away instantly!

RUMBLE!

RUMBLE!

RUMBLE!

As her body crashed through distant buildings.

The sky seemed to sense it, emitting violent roars.

Of course…

THUD!

Moments later, she stood up from the ruins.

But now.

Even the powerful evil god bore clear bloodstains.

“Actually…”

Pain made her widen her eyes, looking at the three distant figures incredulously.

Yes—even “Iron Balloon” could be broken before sufficient power.

Only few people on the sea possessed such power.

But undoubtedly…

The three before her were among them.

“Just an Emperor.”

The voices of the three seemed louder than thunder.

“We are—”

“The Zodiac.”
