The Gap Between Him And Me Will Be Beyond His Imagination

At the outskirts of the Water 7, the Big Mom Pirate fleet lay quietly docked at a harbor.

Since Katakuri left the team a few days ago and went to the Water 7 alone to seize the Pluton blueprint, the Big Mom Pirate took over the harbor directly with absolute force.

At this moment, in the center of the harbor.

The top leaders of Big Mom Pirate are holding a celebration banquet.

A pile of desserts is placed in front of Big Mom, and she eats them without caring about her image.

"Mmm..."

"Delicious! Really delicious!"

"Mamamama."

Big Mom swallowed the cake on the table in one bite and sighed with satisfaction.

Then she turned her head and looked at Perospero, who was quietly waiting on the side, with a hint of admiration in her eyes: "Katakuri inherited great strength from me."

"But, Perospero, you possess the intelligence that even Katakuri doesn't have."

"If Katakuri is the highest masterpiece in terms of strength, then you are the highest masterpiece in terms of intelligence!"

"You have half the credit for Katakuri's success this time."

Perospero couldn't help but show a flattered look, and the arm holding the candy cane began to tremble.

For a moment, he even felt a little proud.

Big Mom is already over 60 years old this year.

Although she still has a monster-level combat power, she is inevitably beginning to decline.

The future of the Big Mom Pirates will eventually be handed over to her children.

In recent years, Katakuri has been the most popular in Big Mom Pirates. 

With his unparalleled fighting power and strong personal charm, he has conquered countless brothers and sisters and even has the potential to become the heir to the throne.

But everyone has forgotten that he, Perospero, is the oldest and the most legitimate heir!

He needed an opportunity to prove himself, and fortunately, this time, he had waited long enough and succeeded.

Big Mom's choice had given him the capital to contest with Katakuri.

Thinking of this, Perospero suppressed his inner excitement, showed a humble attitude, and said: "It's all thanks to you, Mama."

"Excessive humility is arrogance, Perospero!"

Big Mom smiled slightly.

"This time, the setup you planned was perfect."

"Whether White Knight Gawain chooses to escape or stay and fight head-on, he can attract the attention of all pirates and buy us enough time."

"Now that we have succeeded, it is too late even if other pirates react."

"White Knight Gawain can only definitely take this loss."

Perospero nodded, but he had another concern in his heart: "Mom, White Knight Gawain is one of the Seven Warlords of the Sea, after all. Even according to the intelligence we have obtained, that guy defeated the former admiral of the Marines and threatened the World Government before he was qualified to join the Seven Warlords of the Sea."

"He is not weak. If he comes to retaliate at the right time, we..."

"Then let him come!"

Big Mom raised her head, her eyes turning ferocious and cruel: "There are countless new strong men appearing in this sea every year. How many of them can gain a foothold in the New World?"

"Not to mention launching an attack against the emperor after gaining a foothold!"

"The gap between him and me will be beyond his imagination."

"Even Katakuri, after all these years, no one has been able to surpass him. How could he possibly get past me?!"

"After all, this sea is ultimately a cruel world where the winners take everything, and the losers are at the mercy of others!"

"And we are undoubtedly the existence standing at the top of the pyramid!"

"That's right!"

Perospero nodded heavily; his worries were completely dispelled, and his face showed an extremely excited expression: "As long as we continue growing stronger, no matter whether it is Red Hair, Kaido, or Whitebeard, those monsters, they can't stop us from climbing up!"

"The relationship connected by blood is far more stable than the so-called companions."

"Even if we, brothers and sisters, occasionally have disputes, we can always stand together in the face of life and death issues."

As soon as these words came out, Big Mom looked at Perospero with more satisfaction, and she couldn't help but reach out and touch the latter's head, just like a kind mother.

However, only the children sitting at the table know how ugly her true face is.

Anyone who dares to disobey Big Mom in Whole Cake Island will have part of their soul taken away.

The total amount of a person's soul is limited, which is directly linked to life span. Once too much soul is taken away, there is even the possibility of dying of old age on the spot.

Just like a few years ago, a Mink Tribe member who had entered Whole Cake Island and, due to taking the prize for his captain, had his soul taken and died instantly.

"Mamamama."

Big Mom habitually chuckled a few times and then buried her head to continue eating the piles of desserts on the table.

It's called a banquet, but in fact, only Big Mom is qualified to eat here.

It wasn't until she was satisfied that the others could begin eating.

… … …

Time flies, and two days have passed.

After the people of the Big Mom Pirate knew that Katakuri had succeeded, they hid their whereabouts and stayed here to wait for support.

But at this moment, there were bursts of whistling sounds coming from the sky, which were caused by some huge object piercing the air at high speed.

Whoosh!

The Big Mom Pirate, who was on guard in the harbor, became nervous in an instant.

They looked up but could not see anything.

If several look-outs around had not raised their heads together, they would even think that they were hallucinating.

"Something is passing through the sky!"

"The last person who could make a similar sound was Kaido!"

"Everyone be on alert!"

Countless pirates went to the deck to investigate, but in the end, they saw nothing.

Although the first few lookouts were certain about what they heard, without evidence, they could only assume it was nothing.

… … …

In the clouds, Gawain, who had transformed into Beast Form, looked down at the pirate ships in the harbor with a sharp gaze like a hawk: "Although they took down their pirate flag to hide their identity, these ships clearly have the distinct style of the Big Mom Pirates."

"There's no mistake!"

"This is where the Big Mom Pirates are hiding!"

"Since they want to use me as a shield and even injure my companions, they should be prepared for the consequences!"

The next moment, Gawain's body expanded rapidly, and in a few seconds, he turned into a red dragon with a length of more than 130 meters.

His wings spread out, casting a shadow that completely covered the Big Mom Pirates docked at the harbor!

"Damn it!"

"What is that?!"

"Dragon?!"

"A dragon different from Kaido?!"

"Damn it!"

"It's a Mythical Zoan Fruit!"

The pirates at the harbor immediately erupted in panic while staring in shock at the giant figure in the sky.

Especially when they saw the azure flames gathering in the red dragon's mouth, a chill ran down their spines!

"Something's coming!"

"Has that guy lost his mind?! He dares to challenge Big Mom Pirate?!"

"We are… The emperor's crew!"

Some people instinctively put on an arrogant attitude, but when they saw the figure in the sky, they seemed a little lacking in confidence.

Big Mom, who was taking a short nap in the cabin, was suddenly awakened.

Although her Observation Haki has not been cultivated to the extent of being able to predict the future like Katakuri, she also has extraordinary perception ability.

But at this moment, even Big Mom felt a piercing chill!

That thing can actually pose a threat to her?!
