Disclaimer: I don't own Naruto or One Piece
OK, a 13k Chapter for the 100th chapter of Naruto on Board... Plus when getting to 10k for this saw I only had a couple of episodes left due to the last part of the arc was mainly focus on Luffy's fight and Big Mom Pirates fighting/waiting for Luffy to come out of the mirror.
THERE'S A NEW POLL UP FOR TOP 7! The top 2 were only apart by 2 votes so we decided to update it to do the top 7 YOU CAN PICK 3! It will go down after a round of updates when Ninja in the Web is done, so that'll be a couple of days after the A Fox in Middleton gets the update after that story ends.
Beta: ANUBIS the god king.
Chapter LXIII.
Last Time.
Mirro-World.
Luffy pulls himself and Katakuri through Sunny's mirror into the Mirro-World, and Luffy breaks the mirror leading there as he faces Katakuri. "So that's a captain's determination… But you're no match for me. This place will be your graveyard." Katakuri said to Luffy who just glared.
"I'll go back to the Sunny! After I take you down!" Luffy said as the two stared at each other.
Now.
Mirro-World.
"I'm going to kick your ass!" Luffy glared as the soldiers taunted him before being silenced by Katakuri who raised an arm.
"You're dangerous Straw Hat Luffy… Even though it was reckless, there aren't that many people who can cause this much damage… On the Big Mom Pirates. If I let you get away, you'll be a bigger threat to Mama. But in terms of ability, you're on a way lower level than me… I've got to take care of you now." Katakuri explained closing his eyes.
"I'm not gonna be defeated!"
"I'll teach you that there's always somebody stronger than you."
Luffy just leaned back at that before dashing towards Katakuri with a Haki-infused punch. "Here I go!"
He jumped up to Katakuri's head who easily dodged the attacks. Luffy dropped down before turning with a kick that Katakuri leaned away from and punched Luffy in the face sending him back. Is that all you got?"
Luffy jumped up in Gia Sekendo (Gear Second) and threw a punch. "Gomu Gomu no Jetto Pistoru! (Gum-Gum Jet Pistol!)"
Luffy's eyes widened as he saw Katakuri block the punch with his stretched-out mochi arm. He then jumped back and threw both fists at the same time. "Gomu Gomu no Jetto Tsuin Pistorus! (Gum-Gum Jet Pistols!)"
Katakuri dodged the attack having Luffy hit two mirrors before dodging another hit having Luffy destroy a third. Katakuri then appeared beside Luffy before whispering. "I can dodge forever."
Luffy jumped away at that, jumped in the air, threw back his arm, twisted it, and had it turn black with Haki. "Gomu Gomu no... Hōku Raifuru! (Gum Gum Hawk Rifle!)" Luffy threw his arm forward only for Katakuri to dodge by jumping high in the air. Luffy followed suit threw his arms back and covered them in Haki. "Gomu Gomu no Īguru Bazūka! (Gum Gum Eagle Bazooka!)"
Bringing his arms forward, Luffy slammed his hands onto the floor as Katakuri dodged before they jumped around with him dodging Luffy's attacks. Katakuri appeared by the others as Luffy, leg raised in the air, Haki-infused crashed through a pillar and came down. "Gomu Gomu no… Hōku Akkusu (Gum Gum Hawk Axe!)"
"Useless." Katakuri dodged by jumping to the side of the attack as dust kicked up before Luffy attacked with a fury of fists that Katakuri matched by creating mochi arms.
"Hōku Gatoringu! (Hawk Gatling!)"
Straw Hat Crew.
"Brace for impact!"?
The crew landed on the ocean with Carrot landing on Naruto's crotch in his face. "I don't see anyone coming after us."
"It's going to rain…" Nami said looking at the dark clouds.
"Hey! Luffy! Let me hear you if you're there!" Chopper yelled out before Carrot looked up.
"He went into the Mirroworld… Taking Katakuri..."
"What?! Luffy..."
"Someone broke the mirror! We can't go in like this!" Chopper said looking at the broken glass.
"Let's trust Luffy," Naruto said sitting up and fixing Carrot's right side up. "He said he'd be back!"
"Speaking of being missing… I don't see Pedro-san, either." Brook stated as Naruto held Carrot.
"Pedro passed."
Rain poured down onto them at the news. "We should not get upset."
"Hey, Jinbe! How could you say such a cold thing?! You knew Pedro the shortest out of all of us, that's why-!"
"I'm just telling you not to lose your concentration! We had our backs against the wall at the coast… He knew the place was extremely dangerous so he had been preparing to sacrifice himself." Jinbe said to Brook as he sailed. "This is… Pedro's victory! How much damage did the enemy take because of you guys?! It's an unprecedented major blunder to them! Your strength drove Big Mom into the corner! Don't you hear Pedro's voice inside you saying… 'Keep going'?!"
"Luffy sensed it instantly… and decided to take the enemy on all by himself. Katakuri is worth over a billion! It's all or nothing! It's not over yet! We're still in Totto Land! Soon, we will be chased by the pirate queen of the country, Big Mom! And the enemy fleet can attack us at any time from any direction! Until you get out of the territory where Big Mom reigns, You can't lose your concentration! Isn't Pedro inside of you saying that?!
"I'm very sorry. I was way out of line." Brook spoke picking his hat up.
"Nami, give us directions!"
"OK! Sanji and the others will come to us from Cacao Island so we don't wanna miss each other. There'll be a strong wind soon. It's a tailwind! So starboard! Hard a starboard! Catch the wind on the starboard side and head straight west!"
"We'll take the shortest way!" Naruto said standing and creating clones to help with the sails as Carrot jumped to the crow's nest.
"I'll stand guard! They're coming from six o'clock!" She said as Jinbe turned the wheel
"I thought it'd take them longer!"
"They're the ships from earlier…! A person?! N-No way… No way... I don't... I don't think that's possible… Big Mom is walking on the water!"
"She's probably on something!" Naruto yelled up.
"That's not the water... That's… Candy?! She's walking on a large block of moving candy!"
"The only person who can make those… It must be... him-teia! Pedro even sacrificed his own life!"
Sanji, Pudding, And Chiffon.
Elsewhere, as Sanji, Chiffon, Pudding, and Nitro ride Rabian toward Cacao Island, Sanji finds out that Lola is a master chocolatier. Chiffon reveals that Lola was the Minister of Chocolate who governed over Cacao Island before she ran away, and the position has not been filled since then since the best candidate, Pudding, refuses to take Lola's spot.
Pudding currently hiding in the rolled-up front of Rabian refuses to come out because she does not want to be seen with Sanji in her wedding dress.
Mirro-World Luffy Vs Katakuri.
Luffy, now having both arms in Gia Sādo (Gear Third) jumped up to bring them forward for an attack. "Gomu Gomu no… Gurizurī Magunamu! (Gum Gum Grizzly Magnum!)" Katakuri created two bigger arms and collided with Luffy's before forming around them. He then started spinning having Luffy collide into the walls before getting his bearings and running before having the air travel into his leg and raising it before adding Haki. "Gomu Gomu no Giganto Akkusu! (Gum-Gum Giant Axe!)"
Luffy brought the leg down before a shadow came over him. Looking up, he saw an even larger Haki-covered leg about to hit him before the hell came down. It hit Luffy into the floor creating a crater. The men cheered before Luffy started to move. He stood up and started fighting Katakuri with Punches before seeing Brûlée holding a mirror with a room on the Sunny inside before grabbing a mirror shard of the one he broke.
Earlier Chocolat Town, Cacao Island; Sanji, Chiffon, And Pudding.
Pudding puts handcuffs on Chiffon to pass her off as a prisoner and manages to tell Sanji to hide in Rabian's fold. The group arrives at Cacao Island, and Pudding assures the concerned citizens that Chiffon was not a key member of her husband Capone Bege's plan to assassinate Big Mom.
A Choco Police officer takes her to the Sweets Factory, and they discuss the wedding and Big Mom's rampage. The officer states that Whole Cake Island's 31 finest head chefs have been gathered to help make the cake, as chefs step out, ready to get to work. The WCI 31 introduce themselves to Pudding's group, and she instructs the citizens outside to not peek inside the Sweets Factory at any time.
She then has each of the chefs meet with her alone, and she manipulates their memories to make them think the wedding between her and Sanji was successful and that the cake was ruined by the weather. Meanwhile, Sanji shows Chiffon his blueprints for the cake, and she is taken aback at how he perfectly remembered all the ingredients through smell alone.
Pudding then joins them, and she reveals what she did to the chefs. Sanji then gives orders to them, telling Chiffon to make the chiffon cake and Pudding to make the chocolate, and he will make the secret ingredient that he says will unlock true happiness.
He explains they will have a short two hours and 40 minutes to bake the cake and will decorate it after taking it out to sea, with the intention of crossing paths with Big Mom and the Straw Hat Pirates between Cacao and Whole Cake Island and feeding her there. The WCI 31 does not think that they can cook in that short of a period, but Chiffon intimidates them into action as the group begins working.
The Sunny.
"Wedding… cake!"
"Incoming on the right!"
"Jinbe! Port to avoid!" Nami ordered Jinbe who nodded.
"OK!"
Chopper used Gādo Pointo (Guard Point) to block several cannon balls as Naruto used his sword to slice others with his clones. "Hey! Can you hear me?! Somebody!"
"What? Luffy?!" Nami turned to pick up a mirror
"There are still some mirrors on the ship, aren't there?! Maybe in the boys' room or the bathroom?!
"The room is on fire!"
"Break every mirror on the ship!" Naruto yelled as his clones went into every room and broke every mirror.
Jinbe steered the ship to avoid cannonballs as Chopper and Brook intercepted some of the shots. Before the Sunny crew can do anything, however, they are suddenly faced with a massive wave created by Big Mom and Perospero's candy homie. The crew cowers in terror except for Jinbe, who has the crew affix ropes to the sails.
He then grabs the ropes while standing at the helm, allowing him to control the sails single-handedly. On top of the wave, Perospero looks down at Big Mom. "Matte (Wait) a minute, Mama!" He yelled as the wave started to fall. "If you do that, the cake will sink into the sea, too!" He warned Big Mom. "Mama!"
But it is too late as the waves begin crashing down. Jinbe steers the ship straight toward the wave, and the Straw Hats are sure that they will die as the wave comes down. However, they find themselves inside a pocket space in the wave. "The Green Room," Jinbe stated as everything took a green tint. "It's a brief 'Wave Room' that forms inside a collapsing wave."
"To the children of the Fish-Man Tribe, it was the perfect place to play! We're gonna sail through it, hang on!" Jinbe yelled as he used the ropes to sail the ship out of the wave.
They then went throughout the ship and destroyed every mirror on the ship. Chopper then picked up the shard that had Luffy in it, got his attention, and made plans to reunite at Cacao Island at 1:00 AM.
Cacao Island.
The chefs hurriedly get the ingredients prepared, but find that they are short on butter. Sanji tells them to use prunes to make a puree that will substitute for the butter, impressing them and Pudding. She gets extremely excited every time the chefs remark that they are a good match or state that they are husband and wife, to the point of fainting.
Later, the wedding cake's creation is going steady with no issue, and Sanji believes that they will finish it in time. Pudding works hard to focus on her task without getting distracted by Sanji and is tested when she gets jealous of him complimenting Chiffon. Meanwhile, Charlotte Oven draws closer to Cacao Island, intending to check on the wedding cake's development.
Mirro-World.
Luffy without his jacket struggles to get away from Katakuri while holding the tiny remnants of the mirror but is smashed into the ground by a giant mochi ax kick, and his crew is greatly concerned. However, Luffy acts like everything is fine and approves the plan to reunite on Cacao Island, causing his crewmates to celebrate.
Meanwhile, Katakuri brought out a trident from inside his body. It's a pink trident, with its three prongs tightly together. The middle prong is a full spear shape, while the two on the sides are half-blades.
Luffy then looked up at Katakuri. "I'm not gonna die here!"
"No one dies because they want to. Most deaths… Come unwillingly. You will… Die here soon!" Katakuri explained to Luffy as Brûlée started taunting him.
Luffy tried to punch the woman, only for Katakuri to grab him by the wrist, and throw him into a wall. He then had his arm turn to mochi and spun his trident before thrusting it at Luffy. "Mochi Tsuki! (Mochi Thrust!)"
Luffy fell to the floor to dodge as Katakuri hit the wall and drilled a hole in it. "That was close!" The wall then started to collapse Luffy ran forward and jumped out of the way
"This trident is called Mogura," Katakuri spoke having Luffy look back to see Katakuri standing behind him. "Your hand or your foot? Name the body parts you can most do without. I'll sever them for you!"
He then spun it at Luffy who dodged, went into Gia Sādo (Gear Third), and attacked with a spinning fist. "Gomu Gomu no Giganto Raifuru! (Gum-Gum Giant Rifle!)" Katakuri dodged it before Luffy attacked with a regular fist that he blocked with his own.
Katakuri prepares to use Mochi Tsuki on Luffy in the air, but Luffy manages to use the wall to propel himself away from Mogura. Luffy attempts to counterattack, but Katakuri throws him into the wall and strikes him with Mogura again. Luffy very narrowly avoids being impaled, and when Katakuri attempts another strike, he bunches himself up to duck under it.
However, this propels him upward right into the ceiling, and Katakuri kicks him back to a wall. Luffy narrowly falls to the ground right before Katakuri strikes his spot on the wall with Mochi Tsuki, and he is utterly dazed. Luffy manages to dodge more of Katakuri's attacks, but any of his attempts to attack lead to him being harmed.
Luffy attempts to grab a hold of Mogura. Katakuri pulls it back just in time, and when Luffy attempts to attack again, he throws the Straw Hat to the ground before pinning him with his hand. Katakuri prepares to strike Luffy at point-blank range, but Luffy manages to stop Mogura with his legs. This allows him to punch the ground and escape from Katakuri's grasp.
Suddenly, the area turned into mochi capturing Luffy as he remembered his fight with Doflamingo and him turning the buildings into string before biting his arm. Only for Mochi to punch his head off before being spun around and slammed onto the floor. Katakuri then had other walls slam down on Luffy before he pulled out a gold pocket watch and saw it was 3:40 PM.
"Since it took me a lot of time and trouble to defeat you, I'm 40 minutes late for today's merienda. The suffering won't last long. Goodbye, Straw Hat." He turned to walk to see cooks rushing to him with a cart of large doughnuts and tea before creating a small house around him and the sweets to eat in peace.
And had Luffy come out of the mochi walls by eating them and revealing he was also heavily overweight. Luffy ran away and then ran back, revealing he was back to normal before destroying the house with a large fist. And revealed Katakuri lying on his back and singing as he blissfully eats donuts with a rather large mouth.
Katakuri spots Luffy above him and immediately becomes enraged, and his chefs run away in fear. Katakuri approaches them in great fury and impales one of them with Mogura. The other chefs try to plead with Katakuri, promising not to tell anyone, but Katakuri ends up misinterpreting one statement as an insult against his mouth, causing him to make his arms square-shaped and hit the chefs into the wall with devastating power.
He then turns his attention toward Luffy and overwhelms him with his superior Busoshoku Haki as he pummels him into the ground. However, as Luffy gets up, he manages to use his Kenbunshoku Haki to dodge Katakuri's punch and kick him in the jaw, much to his surprise. He then succeeds in dodging further attacks and starts figuring out how Katakuri's power works as he activates Gear Fourth.
The enraged Katakuri creates tendrils of mochi out of the ground and assaults Luffy with them, but Luffy manages to avoid them and Katakuri is unable to keep up with him as he is hit by Luffy's Kong Gun and gets sent flying.
The Sunny.
"D-Does this look okay, Jinbe-san?!"
"Yes, that's good enough!"
Jinbe grabbed ropes and started steering the ship using the sails instead and surfed a wave created by Big Mom. "We're gonna sail through it! Hang on! You got a nice ship and a good navigator! If you can control it well, this ship is invincible!"
They sailed through the wave and the Straw Hats noticed that they were not being pursued either, and Jinbe wondered if Aladine and the Sun Pirates made it out safely.
Deep in the ocean, the Sea Slugs have gathered around Charlotte Praline, as she sings to entice them and prevent them from doing their jobs, and Aladine hopes that this will help Jinbe.
Mirro-World Luffy Vs Katakuri.
"My attacks went through your body then!"
Luffy yelled as he dashed to Katakuri remembering first fighting the irate. "I was wrong! You can be… Hit, too!" Luffy shot his arm forward as Katakuri coated his in Haki and made an X. Luffy punched Katakuri having him fly back still on his feet. "Even your iron-tight Armament Defense… Can be broken by my Gear Fōsu! (Gear Fourth!)"
Luffy then hits him with both hands having Katakuri slid into a wall before being punched in the stomach. Flying back, Katakuri remembers his sister's words before he started to fall back. He then leaned down so he fell on his head and flipped back up before Luffy started hitting him with multiple punches having them go through him again.
Katakuri then punches Luffy with multiple arms matching Gear Fourth with his Chikara Mochi punches, and Luffy is once again unable to hit him at all. Katakuri binds Luffy with strands of mochi around his body and assaults him with tendrils of mochi from the ground. Luffy then finds himself overwhelmed as Katakuri creates several remote arms, and is unable to dodge Chikara Mochi for long as he is punched into the wall
Cacao Island.
"Pura-Pura-Pura."
Pudding receives a call from Brûlée, who checks in on the cake and reveals that she has overheard the Straw Hats' plan. Outside of the factory, meanwhile, the citizens are shocked to see Pound approaching them who wishes to enter and see his daughter Chiffon, but the citizens push him back due to Pudding's wishes.
Brûlée tells Pudding that the Straw Hats are planning to reunite with Luffy on Cacao Island at 1 AM, but they will have no luck in doing so as she reveals that Luffy is fighting Katakuri in the Mirro-World and will thus surely die. Even if the Straw Hats get to Cacao Island earlier, they will be intercepted by Oven's army which has just arrived.
Oven is told by the Choco Police that he cannot enter the Sweets Factory, which he accepts, and he then spots Pound knocking on the door trying to get in. Oven recognizes his former stepfather and punches him, having Pound plead with his former stepson for mercy. However, Oven states that disposing of Pound is necessary, as Big Mom will be coming to Cacao Island and would not be happy to see him.
Inside the factory, Pudding expresses worry to Sanji about Luffy going against the undefeated Katakuri, but Sanji only responds with confidence that Katakuri will take his first loss today. Sanji reaffirms to Pudding that Luffy will beat Katakuri and their only job is to make the cake, which she resumes doing with great enthusiasm.
Later, one of the WCI 31 is on the verge of death due to pure happiness from eating Sanji's completed Simsim whipped cream. Chiffon's chiffon cake and Pudding's chocolate icing are finished as well, and Sanji notes that they are making good time. He decides to bring the ingredients out to a ship and construct the cake while they sail toward the Sunny, and gets excited to deliver it to Big Mom.
Nuts Island.
Amande, Mondée, and Effilée arrive at Nuts Island after hearing about it being under threat from Big Mom. Amande watches as the cake-crazed Big Mom lands on the island and begins tearing apart buildings looking for the wedding cake, which horrifies her and Perospero.
Mirro-World.
Back in the Mirro-World, Katakuri predicts that Gear Fourth will soon wear off, which ends up greatly benefiting Luffy as he finds out and immediately starts running away. Katakuri transforms his entire body into mochi and slithers on the ground at a very fast speed right as Gear Fourth wears off, and Luffy struggles to keep his distance from Katakuri as he now needs 10 minutes before he can use Haki again.
Katakuri assaults Luffy with Chikara Mochi, and he struggles to dodge it. However, he then spots Brûlée around a corner and grows ecstatic as he grabs onto her and jumps through one of the mirrors. Katakuri is aghast that Brûlée left herself open to that, and attempts to grab them before they escape, but ends up breaking the mirror instead.
Outside, Luffy and Brûlée end up in a house on Nuts Island, and Luffy's plan to rest there for 10 minutes is cut short when the rampaging Big Mom tears the house apart. There, Luffy and Brûlée watch in shock as Big Mom tears apart Nuts Island while Perospero and Amande try to stop her.
Perospero and Amande try to stop the rampaging Big Mom from destroying the island when Perospero sees Luffy and Brûlée right below him and Big Mom. He points Big Mom to Luffy, and she throws a large section of the peanut tower at the Straw Hat, forcing him to run away with Brûlée in tow.
Perospero creates a Candy Wall, and Luffy tries to break it, but his Gear Third punches are ineffective without Haki. Perospero surrounds Luffy with the Candy Wall as Amande appears behind him and attempts to cut him with Shirauo, but Luffy dodges the strike and pulls himself and Brûlée over the wall, leaving Amande trapped.
Perospero then transforms the wall into a slug moving toward Luffy, and Big Mom jumps on it as she demands her wedding cake from Luffy. The Candy Slug ends up causing even more devastation to Nuts Island, and Perospero and Big Mom lose sight of Luffy. Luffy runs through the street, intending to find somewhere to rest until he regains his Haki and resumes his fight against Katakuri. However, he accidentally drops Brûlée, and she hides inside a chunk of a fallen building, gleeful that Luffy will not find her.
However, when Luffy calls her "Branch", she inadvertently pops up to remind him of her name, causing him to recapture her and tie her up. With Brûlée on his back now, Luffy heads into a building and tries to jump through a mirror, but stops as he is shot at.
Bang!
He looks back to see a tall, thin, woman who has a long neck. She has a square head and long, wavy blue hair. On her torso, she only has an open dark purple jacket showing her cleavage, which ends halfway down her chest, as well as a bandolier across her chest. She also wears dark purple vertically striped pants and a dark purple bowler hat, as well as an ammunition belt on her waist.
Charlotte Effilée 5th daughter of Charlotte.
"I won't let you get away, Straw Hat!"
Effilée shoots at Luffy, but his body bounces the bullets back at her, and he manages to lose her by pulling himself and Brûlée up to a roof. However, he is then confronted by another woman blocking his path.
She is a thickset woman with a fat face and neck, long, wavy, teal hair, and is wearing a yellow buttoned gown as well as a wide-brimmed black hat on her head that has pink flowers around it.
Charlotte Mondée, 2nd daughter of Charlotte.
She then tries to attack him with her sword, but Luffy responds by putting Brûlée in the path of her sword, preventing her from attacking him. Eventually, Mondée does unleash an attack, but Luffy dodges it and it causes the building below him to collapse. Luffy resumes running down the street with Brûlée in tow, but Big Mom sees him and unleashes a devastating attack with Napoleon having Luffy go into a house and jump into a mirror.
They land in Mirror World where Luffy tries to rest, but Brûlée calls out to Katakuri to rescue her, causing him to find them. Katakuri reaches out to grab Brûlée, and barely comes up short as Luffy manages to jump through another mirror. Mont-d'Or's group on Whole Cake Island then hears reports from different islands about Luffy being spotted, until finally Luffy and Brûlée make it to a house where they are all alone.
Brûlée wonders why Luffy does not just escape to Cacao Island, revealing that the Big Mom Pirates found out about his crew's plan. However, Luffy wants to fight Katakuri, and he realizes that Kenbunshoku Haki can be depleted just like Busoshoku Haki can. However, rather than attempt to deplete Katakuri's Haki, he instead remembers Rayleigh teaching him that Haki grows stronger when one faces strong opponents, and he decides to strengthen his own Haki against Katakuri until he reaches the Sweet Commander's level.
Fire Tank Pirates.
On the Nostra Castello, Bege wonders why more Big Mom Pirates are not pursuing them, and Vito points out that the Territorial Sea Slugs do not seem to be operating and connecting with the crew's Den Den Mushi as they normally would. Bege commands his crew to take the ship on the shortest route to Cacao Island, where they will pick up Chiffon.
The Sunny.
"No one's coming after us!"
Chopper yelled as he and Carrot were in the crow's nest looking around. "That's strange," Jinbe spoke as he sat at the wheel. "Someone should be chasing us in this territory."
"This must be a trap!" Nami exclaimed crossing her arms under her bust.
"Big Mom seemed out of control earlier." Naruto mused from his spot. "Maybe they're trying to stop her? I have heard she'll attack her people in those fits she gets."
Later, Naruto changed into faded jeans and a black shirt as Nami had only a white sweater on with her belt and extended her staff.
"It's quiet." She said looking around.
"Unbelievably…" Jinbe spoke up. "But it's not going to go this smoothly like this forever. She takes pride in being a Yonko."
"We have no choice but to keep going!" Brook said looking forward.
"Yeah! In any case, we must get back to the straight route we were on!" Nami explained as a breeze picked up. "If we can't meet with Sanji-Kun and the others who'll bring the cake, in addition to being separated, we'll have to deal with Big Mom's wrath to the end of the world!"
Cacao Island.
Sanji takes glasses from a chef as he disguises himself to head out of the Sweets Factory. The wedding cake is brought out, and the citizens marvel at it and cheer for Pudding and Chiffon. Meanwhile, Pound looks at the procession from behind some foliage and is delighted when he sees his daughter Chiffon.
Oven then arrives to stop the cake, wondering why Pudding is taking it out to sea when Big Mom is headed for Cacao Island. Pudding argues that she does not want to risk Big Mom damaging Cacao Island, and Oven agrees with this and allows her to proceed. However, he attacks Chiffon and throws her to the ground, intending to punish her for her role in Bege's treachery against Big Mom.
Pudding wants to stop Oven, but Sanji says that she will make herself a traitor too if she does, although he is unsure how he can intervene either. Suddenly, Chiffon gets up exclaiming she still needs to help finish the cake. Oven picks her up to kill her before Pound dives Oven having Sanji quickly kick Oven in the neck and grab Chiffon before bringing her back to the cart.
They hid her under a sheet as Oven jumped on and grabbed her Pudding argued they still needed her before his Den-Den Mushi went off informing him Bege was sailing to the island. Oven contacts Bege as the Nostra Castello continues heading for the island while under heavy pursuit from the Tartes.
Oven tells Bege to stand down or else he will kill Chiffon, but Chiffon tells her husband and crew to leave her, thanking them for being her only true family. Oven responds by attacking her, and the Fire Tank Pirates are distressed as they hear her cries through the Den Den Mushi. Bege agrees to meet Oven at the coast, and he calms down Pez as Oven cockily tells Chiffon that this will be the last time she sees her new family.
However, Bege shoots an explosive shot that hits Oven square in the face, sending him flying off the cart carrying the cake, and he tells Pez that this is his way of life as his crew cheers and Chiffon weeps in joy. Oven pulls himself up and begins to heat up in a fit of rage. He and his crew brace themselves to attack, but to their surprise, the Nostra Castello speeds up until it hits the coast.
Bege then reveals that it is an amphibious ship that can travel on land, and its tank treads take it up onto the island, where it rolls toward Chiffon's group. As the Fire Tank Pirates gun down the Big Mom Pirates, Bege tells Chiffon's group to bring the cake on board, which scares them since they have no idea how to do that. However, Sanji responds by kicking the cart up into the air, and he tells Bege to make room for it to land on the ship.
The Sunny.
"Ships! Big Mom's ships are catching up to us!"
Chopper yelled from the deck behind the others. "Prepare to attack!"
As the others got ready, Carrot was standing on the roof of the crow's nest looking out to the sky before Chopper got up to inform her that they'd fight until meeting Sanji. "Hey, Chobro…" She spoke up pulling her hat down. "Is it a full moon tonight?" She asked as she continued staring up at the sky confusing Chopper.
Mirro-World.
"Ten minutes have passed," Katakuri stated as he stood waiting for Luffy to return. "Did he run back to his crew? That's OK." He then turned to start walking. "He can't get away from Mama anyway…" He stopped as he sensed Luffy before turning to see Luffy walking towards him.
"Sorry to keep you waiting," Luffy said before dashing towards him and activating his Haki.
Fire Tank Pirates.
The Nostra Castello continues rolling through Cacao Island as Sanji successfully gets the wedding cake ingredients onto the ship. Bege frees the seal pulling the cart before he, Pez, and his crew reunite with Chiffon. They then see Oven standing in the way of the Nostra Castello, intending to get back at Bege and stop it, but he is easily run over.
Pez then grows happy as he notices his grandfather Pound waving at him and Chiffon from nearby, Pound is happy to see his daughter and grandson, although Chiffon does not know who he is. Bege decides to cut through Chocolat Town to leave the island from the southeast coast, and Pudding allows him to do that, saying the chocolate houses they destroy can be rebuilt.
The Nostra Castello rolls through the town, and the Fire Tank Pirates engage in a firefight with the Big Mom Pirates. The Big Mom pirates are prevented from using heavy artillery to protect the wedding cake, and the Nostra Castello makes it back to the ocean and sets sail for the Thousand Sunny.
Sanji thanks Bege for rescuing them, but Bege replies that he had no intention of saving him. The pirates and chefs then notice that the temperature is rising as the ocean starts to boil and fish begin to die. They look toward Cacao Island and see Oven heating the water with his Devil Fruit, and everyone worries as the increase in temperature threatens to ruin the cake ingredients.
The boiling ocean also damages the ship, preventing its treads from rolling. However, Pound then rushes in and hits Oven in the head with a club. The blow only angers Oven, but it does cause him to pull his body out of the water as he angrily turns to confront his former stepfather. As he tries interceding with Oven, Pound sees Chiffon and Pez again, who are happy with their new family in the Fire Tank Pirates.
Pound regrets not being able to be a part of Chiffon's life, remembering 26 years ago when Big Mom exiled him right after she and Lola were born, not even allowing him to hold them. He hopes that Chiffon did not have a hard life, being unaware of the abuse Big Mom gave her due to her resemblance to Lola.
He then shouts at Chiffon to congratulate her on her marriage right as Oven strikes him from behind with a flaming blade.
The Sunny.
"There you are! Give me the cake!"
Big Mom yelled out as she saw the Sunny before the ships fired homie cannonballs Nami was able to go away from the ship since Luffy wasn't on the Sunny.
"Bakas." A man on one of Big Mom's ships cursed as he got up on the figurehead. "Why are they all useless?!"
He's an extremely tall man with a thick physique. He has blonde hair in strands that resemble dreadlocks, a thick mustache, and a braided beard that goes to his upper chest. He's wearing a yellow and black horizontally striped jumpsuit, dark shoes, and a blueish-purple cape that seems to be in tatters at the end.
He also has white bandages over his arms, dark red boxing gloves on his hands, a cap that has dark blue letters "BM" on the front, and a pair of shades made from the netting of the cap on his forehead.
Charlotte Bavarois, the 26th son of Charlotte.
"You know when Mama's agitated they become undisciplined!"
On the Sunny, Naruto, and Chopper were running around following Nami's order before Carrot up in the Crow's Nest yelled down. "There are ships in front of us as well!"
Looks like they're sandwiching us in!" Jinbe shouted from the wheel as the ships came into view.
Mirror-World, Luffy Vs Katakuri.
Luffy was panting as he was on the ground with Katakuri standing in front of him. "You chose death over the shame of others thinking you ran away?"
"Chose death?"
"Or you've noticed that you're no match for me and come to beg to be an ally?" Katakuri asked as he crossed his arms.
"Beg?" Luffy asked as he stood up. "Cut the crap… I… Came to defeat you!"
Luffy dashed and had Haki coat his right arm before throwing multiple punches that Katakuri dodged.
"Came to defeat me?" Katakuri asked as Luffy's attack ended. "You're not given… Such an option!"
Katakuri coated his arms in Haki and dashed over.
The Sunny.
Clouds went across the moon as the crew looked at all the ships that belonged to Daifuku's fleet while still being chased by Big Mom and Bavarois' fleet. Bavarois finds out that a fleet led by Smoothie, who is accompanied by two more women has come to back them up.
The first is a tall woman who has a tattoo on her upper left thigh. Similar to Smoothie, she has disproportionately large hands. She has long, mahogany hair tied in a high ponytail wearing a striped blue hourglass corset, a short skirt, long dark gloves with elbow padding, a pair of high dark boots, and a long white cape.
Cinnamon 16th Daughter of Charlotte.
The other is also very tall and her legs constitute most of her height, with a tattoo on her left leg. She is a thickset woman with no neck and possesses a large mane of orange hair that nearly reaches down to her knees. She's wearing a frilly and low-cut light green top with pink shoulder pads, and a large dark belt with a pattern of spirals; the front of the belt is composed of stitches that expose her stomach and also features a spiral with a "C" printed on it and dark briefs.
Citron 15th Daughter of Charlotte.
Daifuku contacts Perospero to ask for permission to shoot down the Sunny Perospero grants it, knowing that Big Mom will go to Cacao Island and eat Pudding's cake as he then notices that Big Mom is becoming thinner. Daifuku gets his fleet into position and orders his subordinates to shoot non-living cannonballs due to Big Mom making the cannonball homies unstable.
He then waits for the Sunny to get into firing range, and the Sunny crew decides to continue moving forward, preparing to fight. Carrot looks at the moon, and she remembers Pedro telling her that everyone's time will come someday. "Cho-Bro! Everyone!" They all looked up as she looked down. "Let me handle Daifuku and the others! I'm sure I can help you!"
"Carrot." Chopper said as Carrot stood up, holding her hat to cover her eyes.
"Because it's… A full moon tonight."
"Don't tell me you'll become Sulong?! Are you trained for it?!" Jinbe asked looking up.
"Don't worry… Pedro trained me." Carrot replied before taking her hat off, eyes closed. "I know what he'd say now… 'Leave it to me.'"
"If Carrot's going. I'm going with her!" Chopper in his human form exclaimed.
"Leave it to me, Cho-Bro! I may not look it but I'm a member of the Musketeers." Carrot opened her eyes and looked at the ships in front of them as she remembered the last thing Pedro told her before dying. 'I'll fight… On your-teia behalf… Pedro!'
She then looked up at the moon and started to change. Her eyes turn red, her ears grow larger, her hair and tail grow considerably and turn snow-white in color, and they both emit Electro sparks. The fur around her neckline turns much thicker, vaguely resembling a lion's mane, and her claws become longer and sharper giving her a feral yet regal look.
Daifuku's crew notices Carrot and are shocked as they recognize Sulong, and the Straw Hats are equally captivated. Carrot then leaps down toward the ocean, but to the Straw Hats' surprise, she can fly over the water toward Daifuku's fleet. Landing on Daifuku's ship, she overwhelms his crew with her speed and takes several of them out at a time with powerful Electro blasts.
Daifuku asserts that she will not stop his fleet from taking out the Sunny, but in the blink of an eye, Carrot rips off the helm of his ship, leaving Daifuku aghast as his ship loses control. Carrot then leaps toward one of the Tartes as Daifuku summons his genie to attack her. However, Carrot dodges the genie's strike, which slices several Tartes in half as collateral damage.
Daifuku's subordinates call out in desperation as his genie continues to attack Carrot, missing every time and causing more damage to the fleet. The Straw Hats watch Carrot's performance in awe, and Nami realizes that this is the minks' trump card that Inuarashi mentioned on Zou. Jinbe reveals that by gazing at the full moon, the minks lose control of their senses and become more feral and dangerous.
He continues that due to this lack of control, Sulong is a very dangerous ability as the minks can tire themselves out to the point of death within hours if they are unable to deactivate it. Brook then prepares to go and provide backup to Carrot and runs on the water toward Daifuku's fleet. Bavarois' fleet then comes within striking range of the Sunny and begins firing at it, forcing the remaining crew to defend against it.
Bavarois' fleet continues pursuing the Thousand Sunny, Perospero and Bavarois become worried as Big Mom grows thinner and weaker, resulting in her falling to her knees and panting. Perospero states that Big Mom's hunger cravings have never lasted this long before, and what will happen to her next is completely unknown.
Big Mom calls for Zeus and Prometheus, with Napoleon sending a signal to them. The two homies receive this signal and race through the air to rejoin Big Mom, with Prometheus reprimanding Zeus for letting Nami use him against their creator and crew. Bavarois then reports to Perospero that Pudding's wedding cake has come out to sea, but Perospero is horrified to find out that it is on Bege's ship, and he panics as he can no longer trust that the cake will help them.
Meanwhile, Carrot flies from ship to ship while in Sulong form, tearing off their helms and rendering them uncontrollable. She is aided by Daifuku's genie, which destroys Daifuku's ships in its attempts to attack her, and eventually, Daifuku's entire fleet is disabled. Brook then reaches the fleet and puts Daifuku's men to sleep.
Carrot grows exhausted as the transformation takes its toll on her, and is faced with the oncoming blade of Daifuku's genie. However, Brook manages to pull her away just in time, and he returns to the water as he carries Carrot back to the Sunny. Carrot reveals that she can transform back into her normal self by covering her eyes, and she is given a hero's welcome upon her return to Sunny.
As Naruto brings her below deck to rest, the Sunny goes full steam ahead with Daifuku's fleet no longer in front of it. However, Zeus and Prometheus then return to Big Mom, and she jumps onto Zeus with the agility that Perospero and Bavarois have never seen before. Big Mom has Napoleon transform into a sword and Prometheus ignites her hair as she flies toward the Sunny and jumps on it.
Wanting to find her wedding cake, she reaches for the upper deck, before Naruto in his golden cloak punches the fist and then dashes around hitting her several times and even back. "MOVE NOW!" He yelled as he dashed to continue to hit her.
Mirro-World, Luffy Vs. Katakuri.
"Musō Dōnatsu! (Unstoppable Donuts!)"
Katakuri creates donut-shaped mochi into giant Busoshoku Haki-enhanced arms, with a layer of mochi over his hands. Luffy stood as he panted remembering Raleigh's teaching on Haki becoming stronger as he faced strong opponents before blocking everything out just as he was hit with both of the arms. "Chikara Mochi! (Power Mochi!)"
Luffy was shot into the wall but didn't take his eyes off Katakuri before falling. "I don't get it… The power level's obvious. Why do you wanna get up?" He asked Luffy who started to get up. "You know you can't win so why do you keep fighting?"
"Shut up!" Luffy shouted looking up before standing up yelling as the rubble around him broke. "Don't make me repeat myself!"
"No, you stop making me repeat myself! There is nothing you can do to defeat me."
Luffy punched his palm at that. "I'll beat you at any cost!" Luffy dashed and bit into both his thumbs to enlarge his arms. "Gomu Gomu no… Giganto Bazūka! (Gum Gum Giant Bazooka!)" He threw them back and then brought them forward before being hit back. He then had only his right arm enlarged before twisting it. "Gomu Gomu no… Giganto Rifuru! (Gum-Gum Giant Rifle!)"
Katakuri jumped up and created two mochi arms again. "Musō Dōnatsu! (Unstoppable Donuts!)" He then punched Luffy again with the arms that dodged the attacks. "Chikara Mochi! (Power Mochi!)" Luffy was then hit with the final punch and hit the wall.
Fire Tank Pirates.
On the Nostra Castello, Sanji oversees the addition of the icing on the cake when Bege's men bring him some poison to put in the cake. Sanji immediately kicks the poison overboard, causing him to get into an argument with Bege, who views the cake as a great opportunity to assassinate Big Mom. However, Sanji responds that he will feed anyone who wants food, and do nothing more.
Bege counters that keeping Big Mom alive is foolish, but Sanji then sticks a spoon of cream into his mouth. The sweetness of the cream causes Bege to collapse, which causes his crew to confront Sanji, but they back off when they see their captain is on the verge of dying from happiness. The smell of the cake becomes so great that a few chefs start to pass out, and Pudding swoons over Sanji's ability.
The Sunny.
Naruto kicked Big Mom back before using his sword to slice Prometheus having the sun dodge it Naruto created several clones that attacked Big Mom and pushed her onto her back having the jelly catch her. He sliced Zeus before one half was caught by Brook who ran over to check on Naruto before running back to the Sunny where Nami took the cloud and smiled eerily at him.
Naruto then created a giant Rasengan (Spiraling Sphere) and hit Big Mom sending her flying to an island nearby. "Bitch!" He yelled, out flipping her off.
Whole Cake Island.
Mont d'Or and Niwatori are talking about how long the fight between Luffy and Katakuri has been going on, showing the time as 9:30 pm, which is six and a half hours since the start of the fight. Stussy and Morgans come into view, with Morgans saying how it would be big news if the Straw Hats got away as Stussy then reveals that it was the Tamatebako that destroyed the chateau.
Mirro-World Luffy Vs. Katakuri.
Luffy shot multiple punches at Katakuri who allowed them to pass through him to break the mirrors on the wall before throwing punches at Luffy.
Just ahead, a girl was watching with a group of men with one having a crossbow sniper.
She appears to be a lanky young girl with dark hair in a very long ponytail that curls up at the end. Her ponytail is held up with a flower-shaped hair tie. She's wearing a dark red shirt with a frilly high collar and frilly long sleeves, dark red tights, and light-colored loafers.
Over her clothes, she has a polka-dotted outfit that balloons out like a jelly bean and allows her to bounce around.
Flampe, the 36th daughter of Charlotte.
She starts boasting about how she won the best younger sister award, and how she wants Katakuri's affection. She and her subordinates try to kill Luffy, but her sniper can't get a clear shot. As a response to this, she stabs him in the head with a fork.
Luffy manages to predict Katakuri's attack and counter it, which surprises Katakuri as he realizes that Luffy's Kenbunshoku Haki (Observation Haki) is developing. However, Katakuri manages to lay more hits on Luffy after this, and as Luffy attempts to see whether Katakuri will attack with Mogura or his mochi donuts next, Katakuri notes that Luffy's precognition is not as developed as his own and attacks with both.
Luffy does his best to dodge the attacks, but his fatigue begins catching up with him and, despite occasional good moves, he continues to be overwhelmed. Luffy eventually ends up lying on the ground, and Katakuri tells him not to get up, saying that the Big Mom Pirates had heard about his plan to meet with his crew on Cacao Island and are lying in wait for him there if he somehow manages to emerge from this.
However, to Katakuri's surprise, Luffy does not see this as a problem. As the two of them continue fighting, Flampe believes the fight will finish soon as she aims at the unsuspecting Luffy with her blowgun.
Luffy dodges a kick from Katakuri before kicking at him with a Haki-infused kick that goes through Katakuri's ribs. Luffy landed before dodging mochi tendrils from Katakuri before being hit by one and was sent flying back."Stop getting up. You have no chance!" Katakuri stated as Luffy stood up. 'This fool's Haki is getting as good as mine!' He thought just as something hit Luffy's leg forcing him on his knee.
He then thrusts his trident at Luffy who dodged but was still hit in the left side having him scream out in pain.
Earlier, Fire Tank Pirates.
On the Nostra Castello, one of the chefs reveals that he neglected to add frosting roses to the top of the wedding cake, and could not do so now that the cake was otherwise complete. The chefs begin to panic, but Sanji then steps in and offers to do it. Using Sky Walk, he flies to the top of the cake and adds the frosting roses perfectly, causing Pudding, Chiffon, and the chefs to celebrate.
With the cake now completed, Sanji looks forward to seeing his crew again, but Pudding's sadistic side comes out and suggests that the crew might already have been killed, much to the horror of her more pleasant personality when she is reprimanded by Chiffon. She, Chiffon, and the chefs then collapse from exhaustion, and Bege looks forward to Big Mom eating the cake, saying there is no need to poison it as he hopes that Big Mom will die from its deliciousness.
The Sunny.
Nami then notices the Nostra Castello approaching, and Big Mom catches the scent of the wedding cake. The Sunny crew rejoices as she heads toward it, and Bege prepares to lure her toward him.
Sanji agrees that he can do whatever he likes to her after she eats the cake, and he prepares to head to the Sunny with Pudding on Rabian. Pudding bids farewell to Chiffon and is happy to see her sister living happily with the people she loves. Chiffon tells Pudding to not lose the source of her happiness, causing Pudding to become tense as she looks at Sanji.
She and Sanji then fly off toward the Sunny, with Rabian going fast enough to avoid detection. Sanji reunites with his crewmates immediately after reaching the Sunny, and wonders where Carrot and Pedro are, to which Brook lies that they are both resting below deck.
Meanwhile, Perospero notes that this situation is intended to split up the Big Mom Pirates. He looks at the cake and gets worried about it, knowing that Big Mom needs to eat it to save everyone from her rampage, but also knowing they will all be in danger if the cake turns out to be poisoned and kills her. He then receives a call from Bege as the Sunny crew begins to head out to Cacao Island.
Whole Cake Island.
On Whole Cake Island, Mont-d'Or expresses his disbelief that the Whole Cake Chateau's collapse was the Straw Hats' doing, and Count Niwatori says that if they are this good at planning, they might pull off something unexpected. Swearing to not let that happen, Mont-d'Or contacts the Tartes, telling all of them to go to Cacao Island and bring an end to the Straw Hats.
Later, scores of Tarte ships arrive to besiege it; the people who arrive are skeptical that this much force is necessary and some do not even believe Luffy will escape Katakuri and the Mirro-World, but Oven points them to Mont-d'Or, who tells them via Den Den Mushi about the Straw Hats' responsibility for destroying the Chateau.
Oven tells his crew to destroy every mirror on Cacao Island so that if Luffy arrives he will come from the lone mirror remaining right in front of them. The people are reluctant to destroy their valuable mirrors, but Oven says they can throw them into the water, threatening to kill the families of anyone who does not comply.
Later, several of Oven's brothers and sisters arrive to join his cause. His army now numbers in the thousands. He looked to the former Sweet Commander Snack was there as well.
Snack is a very wide man with a long nose, dark black hair tied in a bun that's been dyed red with a hairpin that has three jewels through it, and a dark blue tattoo above his right eye. He's wearing a yellow woolen jacket resembling sheep's wool and the sleeves are bright orange with his name "SNACK" printed on it.
He has a dark black scarf with thin orange stripes on it and has armor plates with two belts on each side of his arms, dark black pants with thin orange stripes while has two suspenders hanging on each side of his waist, and dark brown shoes with red socks. His head is rather small in comparison to his body.
Fire Tank Pirates.
Out at sea, Bege calls Perospero, and the former says that they will put an end to Big Mom's hunger pangs with the cake, pointing out that Pudding made it. Perospero is still suspicious that the Fire Tank Pirates will try to assassinate Big Mom again and tells Bavarois that their fleet will pursue Big Mom and Bege while Smoothie's fleet continues pursuing the Straw Hats.
Perospero contacts Smoothie to tell her about this plan, saying that her fleet should sink the Straw Hats before they reach Cacao Island. Smoothie, her sisters Citron and Cinnamon, and her subordinates then prepare to attack.
While sailing away from Big Mom, Bege says that he cares more about escaping than assassinating Big Mom, but Chiffon reminds him they have a debt to pay to the Straw Hats and so need to keep them safe from Big Mom.
The Sunny.
Naruto sat on the bench around the mast leaning his arm on his leg as he heard Nami speak up on the Big Mom Pirates knowing they knew they were heading to meet Luffy. "No changing the plan now." They looked back at Naruto who was still panting. "If we're not there to at least for me to go over to grab Luffy, then he will die."
While coming up with a plan, they notice Smoothie's ship coming to them before Sanji explains an idea he thought of while coming back to the ship. He and Pudding get on her carpet to fly to Cacao Island ahead of the Sunny. Carrot then walks up before Jinbe steers the ship out of the way of an attack from Smoothie having the others fall to the deck.
They looked to see Smoothie glowing and growing before swinging her sword to have another attack come their way. She threw several waves of energy that Jinbe dodged by sailing quickly to the left and right.
Mirro-World.
Katakuri stands over an unmoving Luffy, lamenting at how the pirate had faltered right as he was starting to respect him. Luffy, still alive, however, remembers training his Haki with Silvers Rayleigh. Luffy then wakes up and pulls himself up, much to Katakuri and Flampe's surprise. Flampe attempts to attack Luffy again, shooting a numbing needle ten times as strong as the last one.
Luffy manages to see it coming and dodge it but ends up falling over afterward, causing Flampe and her subordinates to laugh uncontrollably. Despite their attempts to subdue it, Katakuri ends up overhearing them and begins to realize that he and Luffy are not alone. Flampe and her subordinates continue laughing as Luffy weakly tries to get up after being utterly pummeled by Katakuri, to the point where they do not even attempt to conceal themselves anymore.
Katakuri notices Flampe's group and then realizes that she assisted him in injuring Luffy. He walks toward her, and as she imagines him praising her for what she did, Katakuri in reality is angry at her interference, thinking that it would make his victory cheap. Katakuri reaches Flampe and proceeds to stab himself with Mogura in the same place he struck Luffy, which horrifies Flampe as a little of his blood lands on her face.
Katakuri then removes his scarf and shouts at his sister to not patronize him and Luffy and interfere in their fight. Flampe's shock quickly turns into derision, as she mocks her brother for his display of weakness as well as his mouth, comparing it to a pelican eel's. Her subordinates get in on the mockery, and they decide to expose his appearance to the rest of Totto Land to make everyone lose their respect for him.
Although he remembers being bullied and receiving the same insults for his mouth as a child, Katakuri simply turns around and heads back to Luffy without saying a word as Flampe's group continues jeering and takes pictures of him. Katakuri then confronts Luffy again, and the two of them agree that the people on the sidelines are annoying as Flampe threatens to shoot both of them with her blowgun.
They then unleash their Haki, causing Flampe and her subordinates to be knocked out. "I no longer…" Katakuri spoke taking his jacket off and got in a stance. "Think you're weaker than me!"
"Thank you!" Luffy thanked him before they dashed to each other for a punch, hitting each other's cheeks.
The Fire Tank Pirates.
The Fire Tank Pirates worry about Big Mom being in hot pursuit of their ships, but Bege is confident that they can outrun her especially since they have nearly reached Liqueur Island. However, Chiffon then says that they cannot go there, as it is too close to Cacao Island and would give Big Mom time to get there before the Straw Hats manage to escape.
Chiffon says they should go on to Funwari Island instead, and with her intent on repaying her debt to the Straw Hats even if it costs her her life, Bege agrees to his wife's request and changes course to Funwari Island, much to the horror of his crew.
Mirror World.
Luffy remembered his training again before being punched to the floor by Katakuri's attack. He gets back up remembering Rayleigh's words to him during a break before closing his eyes. He then sees Katakuri's attacks before dodging them having Katakuri look on in shock before Luffy dashes at him. They then traded punches before Luffy was hit by a flaming fist that Katakuri shot from his mochi.
Luffy got back up and then traded punches again before Katakuri kicked Luffy and dodged a punch from the rubber teen. Luffy got up and traded punches with Katakuri for another time. "Straw Hat!" Katakuri yelled as they broke off.
"What?" Luffy panted as he looked up.
"I can still fight!"
Luffy got into a stance as he looked at him with one good eye, the other swelling. "Me, too!"
After fighting each other for several minutes, Luffy then bit into his arm before speaking. "Gia Fōsu: Suneikuman! (Gear Four: Snake-Man!)"
Sanji And Pudding.
Sanji and Pudding fly to Cacao Island, and Pudding's sadistic side is heavily conflicted about her proximity to Sanji. Sanji makes preparations to get onto the island and rescue Luffy without being seen. Later, as they draw very close to Cacao Island on Rabian, Sanji orders Rabian to suddenly stop, causing Pudding to almost fly off, but Sanji grabs her.
He and Pudding then look through binoculars at the fleet and army gathered on and around the island, noting that there is enough military power to destroy it. They try to think of a way to get in without being detected and decide to have Rabian quickly fly low to the ocean to get past everyone's radar.
Nitro binds Sanji and Pudding to Rabian to prevent them from falling off, and Pudding becomes infatuated with the idea of holding hands with Sanji. Rabian flies very low to the water, preventing anyone on the ships from seeing them, and they successfully make it into the town.
Mirro-World.
Katakuri stared at Luffy's new form. Luffy's forearms, legs, and upper torso are only slightly enlarged and the rest of his body retains its normal proportions. The spread of Haki is slightly less, as it does not appear to extend onto Luffy's shoulders and upper body. Luffy's hair becomes flame-shaped like his Haki and sticks up.
Instead of steam, this form produces a gaseous substance appearing as a mix of steam and fire and like its other counterparts also seems to be draped over his shoulders like a scarf while in this form. His fists also flex differently, with the first knuckles being extended.
Luffy then shot out his left fist having Katakuri doge by leaning to his left. 'Why would he do a simple attack after all this time?' He thought before his eyes widened as he coated his left cheek just as Luffy's left fist hit him back a few feet. Luffy shot his right arm forward having Katakuri doge before coating his arms to block the same fist that attacked at another angle. 'What's going on? Why is it coming from the side?!'
Luffy shot his left arm having Katakuri doge it again before glancing to see his fist bending at various angles before coming back to him. "Gomu Gomu no Jetto Karuvarin! (Gum-Gum Jet Culverin!)"
Katakuri blocked it having him get sent back before Luffy jumped at him. Luffy then assaults Katakuri with rapid punches, but Katakuri transforms into mochi and avoids them as he rolls toward Luffy in a donut-like shape.
Upon reaching Luffy, Katakuri transforms back into his human body as he turns one of his arms into a massive spiked mochi club imbued with flaming Haki, and he slams the club into Luffy. "Zan Giri Mochi! (Sliced Mochi!)" He then spins Luffy around for several moments before slamming Luffy into the floor breaking it.
After a moment, Luffy shoots back up and throws his fist again. "Gomu Gomu no Jetto Karuvarin! (Gum-Gum Jet Culverin!)"
Katakuri was able to block and deflect most of Luffy's punches before hitting him back. They then throw a punch that hits each other at the same time having them fly back from each other. Luffy then jumped up and compressed both of his arms before unleashing them in a rapid strike, moving his arms up and down to give the impression of multiple arms moving to attack. "Gomu Gomu no Burakku Manba! (Gum-Gum Black Mamba!)"
Katakuri blocked most of the punches getting hit several times before he dashed at Luffy and kicked him with his spiked boot. Luffy hit the wall before bouncing back as Katakuri turned into a doughnut and rolled at Luffy who got into a stance. "Gomu Gomu no Kingu Kobura! (Gum-Gum King Kobra!)"
Luffy compresses his arm, and as he releases it, his arms loop around himself once before sending his now enlarged fist flying at Katakuri hitting his fist and sending a shock wave around them. Right as Luffy and Katakuri hit each other with their final blows, Brûlée manages to free herself from her rope bindings. To keep Luffy from escaping the Mirro-World, she decides to run off and join Oven's group on Cacao Island.
Luffy shrank back to normal and passed out as Katakuri fell back before forcing himself to fall on his stomach.
Cacao Island.
Oven's army waits for activity to happen, and Newshi ponders the possibility of Luffy beating Katakuri. Oven and several other siblings admonish him, refusing to believe Katakuri could be beaten. However, they do think that Luffy could capture Brûlée and run away from Katakuri when his crew arrives at 1 AM, and so are waiting to ambush him.
In a nearby alleyway, a hidden Sanji observes the army's movements, saying he will need to move as soon as Luffy comes out of the mirror for them to have a chance of escaping. He tells Pudding that this will be their farewell, and remarks how they met oddly. He remembers his experiences with Pudding, from seeing a picture of her for the first time to resigning himself to marriage with her, to acting through the marriage ceremony in preparation for her attempting to assassinate him, and finally to making the second wedding cake together.
Sanji reaches out for Pudding to come to him, and her violent personality briefly manifests and rejects him, causing her kind personality to become distraught. Sanji remarks that even though Pudding started as his enemy and had once planned to assassinate him, he is still glad she was his fiancée, causing her to burst into tears.
After calming down, Pudding asks Sanji for one last favor, and she plucks his cigarette out of his mouth before moving in closer to him.
At 12:40, Morgans notes that the Straw Hats still have not been caught and remarks that their ever-likelier escape will be a big headline. Mont-d'Or quiets him, saying that the Big Mom Pirates have put aside their pride and have gathered thousands of their forces to take down the Straw Hats. He says that once the Straw Hats are caught, they will be beheaded to serve as an example, and Stussy remarks about his brutality.
Fire Tank Pirates.
At 12:43, Big Mom and Prometheus have gotten close enough to the Nostra Castello to start burning its sails, and the Fire Tank Pirates beg Bege to dispose of the cake and flee. However, Bege says that they all came from different places, and now is the time to remain steadfast and die together if necessary, and Chiffon can see their destination Funwari Island coming into view.
The Sunny.
At 12:45, the Crew noticed that Smoothie stopped attacking but was still chasing them. "Seems like they stopped attacking," Naruto said looking back before hearing Jinbe.
"There is an ambush on Cacao Island! They'll probably start attacking again there to sandwich us!"
Brook tries to negotiate with Smoothie to see her panties but fails as Nami hits him with her staff. She then looks back and says that they will make it to Cacao Island at 1 AM on time, but worries that Luffy will not, noting that he will have to use Brûlée to escape from the Mirro-World. However, she and the crew continue to believe in him.
Mirro-World.
At 12:47, Luffy pulls himself out of the sinkhole and struggles to walk as he heads for Brûlée. Katakuri then stands up in front of him before speaking. "Are you going to come back… To take down Big Mom someday?"
"Of course I am! Because I'll… Become King of the Pirates!"
Katakuri smiled at that. "You're seeing far into the future!" He then passes out and falls on his back having Luffy look on in shock before placing his fedora over Katakuri's mouth and leaving.
Luffy then goes to where he left Brûlée, only to see that she is gone. However, he then overhears her wailing over Katakuri's defeat and comes face-to-face with Pekoms, who has disguised himself with a pink face mask and captured Brûlée. After realizing Luffy knows who he is, Pekoms says that he is going to help him escape to honor the wishes of Pedro's sacrifice, and carries him and Brûlée toward the sole mirror to the island.
Pekoms tells Luffy about how he can activate his Sulong form by staring at the full moon and says he will do this on Cacao Island to rampage and distract Oven's army. He reveals that nobody can bring him to his senses except for the now-deceased Pedro, but is intent on honoring Pedro's memory by helping Luffy escape.
Brûlée says that Pekoms and Luffy will be overwhelmed by Oven's army even if Pekoms activates Sulong, but Pekoms ignores her as he jumps into the mirror.
Cacao Island.
As the clock strikes 1 AM, Pekoms emerges from the mirror holding Brûlée, with Luffy nowhere in sight. The members of Oven's army are extremely confused, and Pekoms holds Brûlée at gunpoint to keep them at bay while he gazes at the full moon and transforms.
His eyes turn blue, his mane and tail tassel grow tremendously in size, and his body grows thicker and more muscular to give him a more feral appearance.
Oven lights Pekoms' gun on fire to get him to drop it before punching the mink, resulting in Luffy being outed from under Pekoms' costume. Some of the Charlotte Decuplets attack Luffy, and he dodges their strikes by jumping over a building, but Raisin leaps up to him and prepares to strike him with his sword.
Sanji then comes and kicks Raisin into a building, and the Big Mom Pirates watch in shock as Sanji carries Luffy through the air. Sanji asks Luffy if he beat Katakuri, which Luffy confirms. The decuplet males then use Geppo to confront Sanji and Luffy in the air, but as Sanji attempts to dodge their strikes, Pekoms unleashes the power of his Sulong and takes out all of the decuplets.
However, in his feral rage, Pekoms ends up attacking Sanji and Luffy as well, but as they look at him after being sent crashing into a roof, he hears Pedro's voice calling out to him, causing him to regain his senses. Pekoms tells Sanji to take Luffy to safety, and the lion mink returns to the ground and resumes attacking Oven's army.
Only to have several of them impale him with spears as Oven orders them to shield his eyes from the full moon, bringing his rampage to an end. Sanji looks back in worry over Pekoms, but his distraction allows Yuen to smash him and Luffy into the ground. The Big Mom Pirates then surround Sanji and Luffy and prepare to shoot them, but their attention is quickly diverted by the Germa Kingdom arriving and attacking their fleet.
Ichiji, Niji, Yonji, and Reiju then don their Raid Suits and fly toward the island, and they shield Sanji and Luffy from the Big Mom Pirates' bullets. "Why are you here?!" Sanji asked his siblings before Ichiji spoke.
"What a coincidence, Sanji. We wanted to give these fools. A crushing blow, too!"
Later, The Sunny.
Naruto jumped up in the air to grab Luffy and Sanji before landing on the deck. "Let's move!" Naruto yelled as the other ships fired at them.
Suddenly the Germa ship appeared before they heard Judge yell. "What's so good about him? Straw Hat Luffy! This is Yonko's Big Mom's Territory… Once you've entered you'll never be able to get out! You risked your life just to get him back?! Sanji is Germa's failure! His skin doesn't work as a shield! He works as a cook because he has no pride in his royal blood! He's easily moved like an idiot and his soft mind makes him put his life on the line for the weak! A failed soldier who is far from perfect… That's all he is!"
"Goodbye! Thank you for the help!" Luffy yelled back before ignoring Judge.
The crew then quickly finds themselves in trouble again, as they see another massive Big Mom Pirates fleet coming toward them from the front. This new fleet consists of Paddle Ships that can rapidly approach their target, and as the crew is forced to deal with their new onslaught, Smoothie's ship gets close enough from behind that Daifuku can attack Sunny with his genie.
Naruto fends off the genie's attacks with his staff, but the Sunny is surrounded by hundreds of ships. However, the sea suddenly begins to rise underneath the fleet, and Wadatsumi bursts out of the water. Jinbe promptly dives underwater, where he sees his former crew the Sun Pirates.
He wonders why they came back to help, and they declare that they will serve him until he and the Straw Hats can make it out of Totto Land. They then go on the offensive, with Wadatsumi swatting away ships with his massive arms while the rest of them use their weapons to disable the Paddle Ships and confront the Big Mom Pirates onboard.
Smoothie and Daifuku continue pursuing the Thousand Sunny from behind, and Daifuku attempts to attack it with his genie again. However, Aladine uses Fish-Man Karate to hit the genie's halberd with a powerful stream of water, disarming it. The Sun Pirates successfully open up a path for the Sunny to sail through, and they bid Jinbe goodbye as he helms the ship to freedom.
Suddenly, Oven arrives on one of the ships and starts to glow before heating the waters having the Fishmen dive deeper to get away from the heat. With the Sun Pirates out of the way, the Big Mom Pirates resume their assault on the Sunny, and the Straw Hats struggle to defend against the barrage of cannon fire coming for them. Eventually, they come face to face with the Queen Mama Chanter and its barrage of cannonballs.
Suddenly, Wadatsumi grabbed them just as the cannonballs got to them, and switched the Sunny for another ship to fool the Big Mom Pirates. Wadatsumi puts the Sunny in his mouth and drinks the water allowing them to breathe before swimming. And was hit by an attack from Oven forcing him to the surface and letting the Sunny out.
The Big Mom Pirates' fleet quickly turns to pursue the Straw Hats once more, but Wadatsumi stands between them and intercepts the cannon fire. He apologizes to the Straw Hats for his actions on Fish-Man Island, and thanks Jinbe for having later allowed him to tag along. He and the Sun Pirates had decided earlier out of gratitude to protect Jinbe until he left Totto Land with his new crew, and were willing to throw away their lives to accomplish it. Aladine then pulls Wadatsumi underwater, and the Sun Pirates rise out of it, ready to battle the Big Mom Pirates' forces.
The Sun Pirates quickly get to work taking down their opponents, and when Oven tries attacking the Straw Hats, Aladine charges in and clashes with him. However, the Sun Pirates are vastly outnumbered by the Big Mom Pirates and are overwhelmed by the fleet's cannon fire as well as by Smoothie and Daifuku's abilities.
On the Sunny, Jinbe turns to the others. "Get the water out quickly! The ship is getting heavy and slow… Catch the wind at a proper angle, and advance as fast as you can! It will still take several hours to get out of their territory! Luffy… I can't leave them behind!"
"OK, I got it!" Luffy stood as he had a blanket around him.
Jinbe says that the crew will never leave alive if they cannot escape from the Big Mom Pirates' fleet, and he intends to ensure they escape by defending them from the rear. Luffy accepts this but reminds Jinbe that he is his captain and tells him to reunite with them in Wano Country at all costs. Jinbe then thanks him before diving off the Sunny to help his now-former crew one last time.
Later Just Outside Big Mom's Territory.
"Can I make your food?"
Sanji was then attacked by the others sans Naruto and Nami who watched before they all walked to the kitchen.
A few days went by before Luffy found a Raid Canister in his pocket and he as well as Chopper tried to make Sanji put it on. Only for the cook to deny the request wanting nothing to do with his former family. Luffy and Chopper unsuccessfully attempt to activate the canister and plead with Sanji again. He voices his dislike of scientific devices like that, and Nami wonders if he feels the same way about her Clima-Tact.
She then has Zeus emerge from it, and Sanji grows resentful of the cloud homie for being Nami's servant. "I was serving Nami-Swan way before you!"
"But I get to live in the baton which she keeps with her all the time!" Zeus spoke before they heard Naruto.
"And I sleep with her nightly."
They looked at Naruto's smiling face as he had his hands behind his head. Carrot then receives a newspaper and goes down to show the crew. They see no updates on Jinbe but find that Luffy got the majority of the credit for the assassination of Big Mom, as well as it saying Luffy beat her. And that he was considered to be the fifth Yonko before seeing Naruto, Luffy, and Sanji's new wanted posters fall out.
"Huh? Guess we got new bounties." Naruto spoke as he picked his up and unfolded it.
Nami took it before her eyes widened.
Wanted Dead or Alive: Uzumaki Naruto: 3,000,000,000.
"My bounty has increased to 330 million berries!"
Sanji exclaimed looking at his poster in pride that he was now wanted more than Zoro by 10 million before seeing that not only was he wanted dead again, but they added Vinsmoke to his name. "It has increased because of Germa's bad name!"
Naruto saw him gain the same aura as when he got his first poster without his picture before seeing the poster.
Wanted Dead or Alive Vinsmoke Sanji: 330,000,000
He then looked to see Luffy also had a depressing aura. "My bounty went down."
"Luffy no one's bounty ever goes down. Maybe the newspaper put an old poster in the paper by accident…" Naruto trailed off as he picked Luffy's poster up. "Luffy… You read it wrong!" Naruto yelled before turning the poster around.
Wanted Dead or Alive Monkey D. Luffy: 1,500,000,000.
"WHAT?!"
To Be Continued.
Thanks for reading and let me know of any mistakes.
Beta: ANUBIS the god king.
Naruto's bounty will now just slowly rise/may not increase when everyone else's does mainly due to the story's wrapping up in the manga as we're in the last saga
OK, a 13k Chapter for the 100th chapter of Naruto on Board... Plus when getting to 10k for this saw I only had a couple of episodes left due to the last part of the arc was mainly focus on Luffy's fight and Big Mom Pirates fighting/waiting for Luffy to come out of the mirror.
THERE'S A NEW POLL UP FOR TOP 7! The top 2 were only apart by 2 votes so we decided to update it to do the top 7 YOU CAN PICK 3! It will go down after a round of updates when Ninja in the Web is done, so that'll be a couple of days after the A Fox in Middleton gets the update after that story ends.
Next to be updated will be Ninja in the Web.
Nothing else to say.
Talk To You Later,
Lone Wolf Out.🐺
