Pirates on Rocks' Ship 996

Upon hearing this, Montor didn't say anything more. He wasn't really stupid; he was just a little jealous because he felt that Brulee was doing better and better after leaving them. In reality, Montor was quite intelligent; otherwise, he wouldn't have been able to serve as the secretary of the Big Mom Pirates, which was essentially the position of strategist.

So after Katakuri explained, he understood.

Meanwhile, after arriving at the Whitebeard Pirates' front-line base as quickly as possible, Brulee went straight to Reiner, who was waiting for her.

"First mate! Why did you agree to go there yourself? Is your injury healed?" Bry asked worriedly upon seeing Reina.

"Don't worry, my injuries are completely healed, otherwise I definitely wouldn't have gone and risked it!" Reina said with a smile.

Upon hearing this, Brulee finally breathed a sigh of relief.

"Thank you so much, First Mate, for making such a special trip for me!" Brûlée said shyly.

“It’s alright. Now that we’ve joined the Whitebeard Pirates, we’re family. I wouldn’t trust anyone else to go. Don’t listen to them saying that Big Mom is mentally unstable right now and thinks she’s easy to deal with. At her level, even if she just stands there and lets you attack, most people couldn’t break through her defenses!” Reina shook his head and said, “Besides, being mentally unstable means you can’t play by the rules. If we really fight, it’ll probably be very troublesome. With me here, at least I can guarantee your safety!”

Brulee was deeply moved. After a brief discussion, and with Reina leaving the matter to Sachi, he followed Brulee to the Big Mom Pirates' territory.

Before long, the two arrived at the conference room where Brûlée had been.

Upon seeing Reina arrive, the group exchanged pleasantries before Smoothie explained their complete plan to Reina.

"So you're planning to first throw Big Mom's mind into chaos, and then I'll take action?" Reina asked after hearing this.

“Yes, but I estimate that this step can be skipped… because Mom’s mental state is basically in a state of chaos at all times right now. However, in order to minimize damage, we will lure Mom to the beach first. She is a Devil Fruit user, so it will be much easier once she falls into the sea!” Katakuri nodded and said.

“Understood! Then Brulee and I will wait for you at the beach. Once Big Mom enters the designated location, I will launch an attack! Please cooperate with my attack. Our main objective is to knock Big Mom into the sea. I might go a little too far, so I hope you won’t mind!” Reina nodded and said.

"Although that's what I say, please, Mr. Reina, don't harm our mother's life, please!" Katakuri said hastily upon hearing this, disregarding everything else.

Reina chuckled and said, "Are you mistaken? That's Charlotte Linlin! The former queen who once roamed the seas. Even now, with her mind in turmoil, she's not someone anyone can harm, let alone kill!"

Katakuri nodded, acknowledging Reina's words. Their mother was indeed very powerful, even though she was currently mentally unstable.

"There's something else I've been wanting to ask you, but I haven't had the chance until now. I hope we can talk about it after this matter is resolved!" Reina said calmly.

“Okay!” Katakuri didn’t know what Reina wanted to ask, but the fact that Reina didn’t use Brulee to trick them into revealing information, but instead wanted to talk after helping them, made Katakuri feel respected.

Soon, as planned, the group first had the Big Mom Pirates provoke their mother, causing her mental state to become chaotic, and then they lured her to the beach where Reina had laid an ambush, and knocked Big Mom into the sea in one fell swoop.

The plan was simple, but a small mishap occurred at the very first step: when they met Bigom, he was already in a state of mental confusion and ignored them no matter what they said.

“It’s alright, this situation was within our expectations. Smoothie, you take your men and retreat outside. Prepare yourselves outside the door. I’ll try to attack Mom!” Katakuri said calmly.

Chapter 1322 Taking Action

Although Katakuri and the others' plan encountered a slight mishap, they had anticipated it beforehand. Because Big Mom's mental state was very poor and she could become confused at any time, their solution was to attack their mother. As long as she sensed malice, Big Mom would retaliate.

After Smoothie and the others left, Katakuri took a deep breath, a flash of red light passing through his eyes—his Observation Haki ability, a brief glimpse into the future.

At this moment, Big Mom's eyes were bloodshot, and she seemed to be immersed in her own world, but she was interrupted by Katakuri's sudden appearance.

"Hmm? Katakuri?" Big Mom's remaining rationality recognized her best son, so she did not launch an attack.

This was the best outcome Katakuri could have imagined. No matter where he attacked, he would face a fierce counterattack from Big Mom. By appearing directly in front of Big Mom, he achieved the best results.

As he predicted, Bigom did not attack directly, but instead looked at him with red eyes.

"Mom... how are you feeling? How about we go for a walk? We're planning a party on the beach, would you like to come?" Katakuri asked anxiously.

"Banquet...?" Big Mom's reaction time seemed to have dropped significantly, and saliva kept dripping from her wide-open mouth.

"It's a banquet, are you going to attend?" Katakuri asked again, feigning composure.

"Cake~~ I want to eat delicious cake! Damn it, kill them all... kill everyone!" At this moment, BIGMOM's emotions suddenly fluctuated, and his originally clear eyes became completely violent.

"Oh no!" Katakuri knew that his mother's mind was completely confused and she couldn't hear anything he was saying.

"Boom!" The spot where Katakuri was standing was slapped into a deep crater by Big Mom. Fortunately, Katakuri was prepared and managed to dodge Big Mom's attack.

As a user of the Mochi Mochi Fruit, Katakuri's moves are very similar to Luffy's, capable of inflicting physical damage from a distance. So after dodging Big Mom's attack, he immediately ran towards them and then punched Big Mom in the process.

This completely enraged the irrational Big Mom, who roared and chased after Katakuri.

"Go!" Katakuri shouted as he rushed out the door, then ran towards the designated location. The others didn't even have the courage to show themselves.

Because if they showed themselves, they would likely attract Big Mom's attention, so they had to hide to the side and come to Katakuri's rescue as soon as he was in danger.

Fortunately, Katakuri was very strong, and Big Mom's mental confusion made her attacks purely instinctive, so he managed to lure Big Mom to the designated beach location without any serious danger.

"Mr. Reina!" Katakuri shouted as he quickly retreated after arriving at the destination.

Reina, who had spotted them approaching earlier, quickly closed in on Bigom and kicked him in the back, sending Bigom flying.

"Phew!" Katakuri finally had a chance to catch his breath.

"Uh...uh..." Bigom, whose eyes were completely red, slowly stood up from the ground and turned to look at Reina.

"This is a bit troublesome!" Reina had expected that even if his kick didn't injure Bigom, it would at least have knocked her into the sea, but the result was far from what he had anticipated.

"Roar~~" Like a wild beast, BIGMOM seemed to have sensed the threat posed by Reina, roared at him, and then grabbed Prometheus, the sun that was surrounding her.

"Roar!" BIGMOM threw a punch, and a large amount of flames rushed towards Reina.

"Heh~ really nothing new!" Reina raised the Hyōrinmaru in his hand, and a barrier of icy energy quickly formed, blocking BIGMOM's flames.

Seeing that his moves had no effect, Big Mom seemed even more furious. The bicorn hat Napoleon on her head transformed into a large sword and appeared in Big Mom's hand.

When Bigam is in a state of mental confusion, his Homies are also in a state of sleep, basically like inanimate objects. But once the Homies enter battle mode, they all come back to life.

At this point, BIGMOM is already in battle mode, and if you're careless, things could get very bad.

"Mr. Reina, please be careful. Although Mom is mentally confused, her strength has not decreased!" Katakuri quickly reminded her upon seeing this.

"Understood!" Through the experiment just now, Reina had already realized that BIGMOM's strength had not decreased.

"Mmmmmm..." Seeing that Reina easily blocked his attack, BIGMOM suddenly laughed and then slashed at Reina with his sword.

The sword strike was incredibly powerful, and Reina dared not take it head-on, so he could only quickly dodge it.

"Mmmmmm..." Seeing that his attack had worked, Bigmom stood still and laughed, without continuing to pursue, which left Reina speechless.

"Is it that funny?" Reina moved quickly and arrived in front of BIGMOM. He slashed Hyōrinmaru directly at the other's neck. If it hit, the other would probably be decapitated. Katakuri, who was watching from the side, was terrified.

However, things did not go as he expected. Reina's attack did not hit BIGMOM, or rather, it did not hit completely, because at the critical moment, BIGMOM's body moved directly backward, causing Hyōrinmaru to graz his neck.

It turned out that Ragnaros had somehow appeared at Big Mom's feet. It was Ragnaros who had moved Big Mom's position, otherwise Big Mom would have been in serious trouble.

"You're really infuriating!" Bigom, who had escaped unscathed, was not afraid. Instead, he glared at Reina and roared.

Seeing the frost covering Big Mom's neck, Reina abandoned his underestimation and said softly, "Although I knew things might be troublesome, I didn't expect Sister Lingling's strength to remain unchanged. It seems I can't continue playing around! Hyōrinmaru... Bankai!"

As Reina finished speaking, the enormous ice dragon soared into the air, circled in the air, and then crashed directly into Reina, raising a cloud of ice mist.

When the icy mist dissipated, Reyner appeared, wielding the Bankai form of Hyōrinmaru. Behind him were a pair of icy wings, and twelve giant ice lotuses hovered and floated around him, making him look extremely imposing.

The hidden members of the Big Mom Pirates all gasped in shock, as the immense power Reina displayed was truly astonishing.

Chapter 1323 Defeated

After transforming, Reina's speed and strength increased significantly. The surrounding air seemed to contain countless icy properties, causing the temperature to drop.

Katakuri, who was not far away, did not approach. It wasn't that he couldn't intervene in the battle between Reina and Big Mom, but rather that he was afraid Reina wouldn't like it.

Strong people generally don't like others interfering in their battles, and it's not wartime now. If he rashly approaches and displeases Reina, it would be a case of more harm than good.

"Then let's continue!" Reina smiled slightly, but then disappeared from the spot.

"Where did he go? Little mouse... come out quickly!" Upon discovering that Reina had disappeared, BIGMOM began to look around, seemingly trying to find Reina's whereabouts.

“Here it is!” When Reina reappeared, he was already behind BIGMOM, and the Hyōrinmaru in his hand was thrust directly at BIGMOM.

"Found you!" BIGMOM didn't even look at him, and with a backhand slash, he directly attacked Reina.

"Oh!"

The clash of swords unleashed a powerful energy that caused the sea nearby to churn.

"Well……"

But just as BIGMOM was about to continue the pursuit, he suddenly let out a muffled groan and involuntarily took a few steps back.

"If I can't even beat you in this state... that would be quite embarrassing!" Seeing the ice forming on his opponent's chest, Reina smiled slightly and launched another attack.

The attack just now seemed evenly matched, but Reina's use of energy was obviously more refined. So BIGMOM only blocked Hyōrinmaru, but not the icy power emanating from Hyōrinmaru, which is why he was injured by Reina.

"I'm really angry!" BIGMOM roared, and the sun Prometheus attached to his hair burst into flames, driving away the icy energy from BIGMOM's chest, making it look as if BIGMOM's hair was on fire.

"Getting angry will make you even more dull!" Reina ignored her and kicked Bigom in the side of the face, sending her flying several meters away.

However, due to its location, the distance between BIGMOM and the sea remained unchanged at this time.

Immediately afterward, before Big Mom could even get up, Reyner gave chase again. This time, he deliberately changed direction, first severing the sun Prometheus with a sword, preventing him from continuing to provide Big Mom with fire element, and then kicking Big Mom in the stomach, sending him flying directly towards the sea.

However, Big Mom did not fall into the sea. Hera, the thundercloud, successfully caught Big Mom. Prometheus, the sun who had been cut in two by Reyna, also returned to Big Mom's side with a look of horror. Although he was still two halves and could not merge into his normal form, it seemed that Reyna had not caused him any real damage.

However, Prometheus's fear of Reina made it unwilling to approach him again, because it never knew when it might actually die at Reina's hands.

However, Big Mom obviously didn't have time to pay attention to Prometheus at this moment, because Reina's attack was coming again.

"Katakuri, while I'm attacking Linlin, go and deal with her thundercloud. It's really getting in the way!" Reina said to Katakuri before attacking.

"Understood!" Katakuri nodded and started up at the same time as Reina.

He wasn't there to watch the show; he was there to help Reina and also to guard against Reina suddenly killing Bigom.

Compared to Katakuri, Reina was much faster. Before Katakuri could arrive, Reina swung his Hyōrinmaru, and countless ice spikes flew towards Big Mom.

Seeing this, BIGMOM grabbed Prometheus, who was trying to escape, and then flames suddenly surged, completely melting Reyner's ice spikes.

But Prometheus was not happy at all, and he didn't even have his usual smugness. Instead, he looked at Reina who was rapidly approaching with a look of horror.

"Mom~ Run! That guy is coming!" Prometheus was still quite loyal; although he was terrified of Reina, he was still reminding Big Mom to leave.

However, BIGMOM didn't have many thoughts at this moment. All she wanted to do was kill the enemy in front of her and then wreak havoc.

"Trying to leave? I reckon you're not going anywhere!" As Prometheus spoke, Reina had already charged over.

"Hera, take your mother away quickly, I'll hold him off!" Prometheus gritted his teeth, wanting to hold off Reina himself to buy time for Hera to take his mother away.

But before Hera could answer him, Big Mom launched a counterattack. Prometheus, which she had been holding, merged with the greatsword in her hand, forming a huge sword that was burning with flames.

"Prometheus, the enemy is powerful. Stop hiding and attack with all your might!" Napoleon in the bicorn hat said.

“Even if you hadn’t told me, I would have gone all out. I’m afraid that even if we went all out, we still wouldn’t be able to deal with him. Can’t you feel it? His soul power is so strong that it makes people tremble!” Prometheus said while gathering energy.
