His gentle voice is completely inconsistent with his domineering appearance.
The inexplicable question did ease the tense atmosphere among the pirates. They looked at each other and several leading captains nodded vigorously.
Having such a strong person come to receive them may be a show of force, or it may be that the aunt is really in a bad situation and wants them to retreat.
No matter what, we've come this far. Even if it means death, we have to find out the result.
The pirates sat at the dining table, watching dish after dish being served.
Pedro the Lion-Head observed the situation at the banquet with gloomy eyes.
This was a welcome banquet specially prepared for them. The experienced chefs on Cake Island cooked very quickly, and most of the dishes served on the table were desserts.
Katakuri stood at the back of the banquet, seemingly observing the situation, while Kuma arranged the seating arrangements at the banquet.
Several biscuit soldiers swayed across the street. They were probably on patrol.
I didn’t see Snaggle and Smoothie among the four generals... I heard that Smoothie rebelled and joined the Whitebeard Pirates?
In any case, if a fight breaks out, with the few strong men present and this layout, they will be able to kill all of their vassal groups.
Pedro felt like he was sitting on a guillotine on the edge of a cliff. If he took a step forward, he would surely die, but if he took a step back, he would fall into an abyss.
The pressure in his heart finally made him unable to bear it. He wanted to take the initiative to attack, but before he could stand up, a hand patted his shoulder and held him down.
It was Katakuri. He foresaw that Pedro would stand up and question him in the future, so he held him down first.
"Mom doesn't want to eat outside today. Let's go back after resting here." Katakuri said, staring into Pedro's eyes.
That cold gaze seemed to be able to freeze the sea. It would be very easy for Katakuri to take his life, but this perfunctory reason ignited the anger in Pedro's heart and swallowed up his momentary timidity.
"Are you kidding? You know why we are here, right?!" Pedro shouted loudly, shocking the surrounding subordinate pirates.
How many lives do you have? Talking to Katakuri like that?!
Looking at the bulging veins on Katakuri's forehead, Pedro snorted, "Are you going to kill me?"
Killing him would tell others that ghosts do exist.
But if we don't kill him, this is not a solution.
Katakuri is in a very passive situation now. He shouldn't have believed that witch and should have not allowed these people to land on the island from the beginning.
Just at this moment, Xiong, who was standing in the middle of the banquet, opened a book with a loud noise, forcibly interrupting the tense atmosphere.
"You want to see Big Mom, of course you can." Xiong said calmly, "But you guys are making things unpleasant. I'm not sure how she will treat you."
Katakuri looked up in surprise. He wanted to ask something, but he noticed a withered woman's shadow in the bear's lens.
"You said... Big Mom?" Pedro, who was pressed by Katakuri, frowned.
Those who submit to Big Mom call her "Mom".
The bear didn't answer his question, but looked down at the ground.
"Forget it, they're already here."
As soon as he finished speaking, the ground suddenly began to tremble.
It was an earthquake, but its intensity was abnormal. Xiong had experienced similar tremors before, when facing a volcanic eruption in the South China Sea.
He felt the vibration and took a few steps forward.
The ground snapped apart like a popsicle stick broken in two.
A huge mountain rose from the ground, pushing open the sweet streets of Cake Island and pushing the houses to both sides.
"This is······"
The pirates were stunned. This ability to move mountains and fill the sea was unprecedented.
They had witnessed the power of the Four Emperors, but this scene was beyond their expectations.
The rubble rolled to the ground, and the dust flew, like the blood groove on a sword. There was a conspicuous hole between the rising mountains.
A huge body lay inside, as peaceful as if taking a nap.
"What's this······"
The subordinate pirates said in surprise.
Of course they knew the person inside, as he was the one they were looking for, but this way of appearance was unheard of.
Katakuri felt something, he turned his head and saw Medea appear beside him.
"Be prepared. She has been in a coma for three months. During this time, we have been relying on injections and magic to maintain her nutritional needs."
Medea's voice rang directly from Katakuri's heart.
Katakuri frowned as he realized what Medea had called his attention to.
This means that the mother has not eaten for three months...
In the cave, the pink giant sat up suddenly, her sagging cheeks drooping and her eyes drooping, as if she had not slept enough.
She sniffed dazedly and turned to look in the direction of the banquet.
The pirates were still immersed in the shock of the sudden change, and no one noticed that Big Mom's eyes had fallen on the desserts on the banquet table.
Only Pedro, who was extremely nervous, had thought for a long time about what questions he would ask the aunt in person to confirm her condition, but he first saw the red pupils between her cloudy eyeballs.
After all, he had worked for the aunt for several years, so he knew this reaction very well.
"It's bulimia!" Pedro said in horror.
The moment they heard this term, the pirates started running away one after another, completely losing their previous attitude of being ready to die.
In the panicked air, only the terrifying screams shook the world.
“Give me...something to eat!!!”
The houses collapsed and some pirates with weaker constitutions were knocked unconscious.
Katakuri had already let go of the pirates, allowing them to escape. He stood in front of Big Mom with a cold face.
"Your treatment for so long has no effect at all?" Katakuri turned around and asked Medea.
"It's true that it hasn't been cured yet, but if you say there is no effect at all, then you are underestimating me." Medea pointed in the direction of Big Mom.
Katakuri turned around, only to find that Big Mom had fallen down again and fallen into a sweet sleep again.
NO17. Just fight over it!
Big Mom fell into a sweet sleep again. She lay on the ground with her arms and legs spread out, and the snot bubbles as big as her face moved with her breathing.
Suddenly, the old lady lying on the ground floated up as if riding on the breeze.
Katakuri's eyes widened, and his excellent observation Haki saw the situation clearly.
It was Liis, she lifted up Big Mom with both hands and led her out of the cave.
Katakuri looked around and saw that the cracker biscuit soldiers had been crushed into slag as the earth changed. There was no third person left except the bear, himself and Medea.
He immediately walked over to Liis, who was carrying the aunt, and made a large rice cake bed with his hands.
Liis threw her mother heavily onto the bed and wiped the non-existent sweat off her face.
"Master!" Medea smiled happily, ran forward and hugged Liis's arm.
"The coma will last until the cravings temporarily pass, but it's best to bring some desserts to surround her to prevent her from getting sick again." Liis didn't pull her hand away, but just said it casually.
"Liis!" Katakuri crossed his arms, showing no intention of letting his little sister go. "When did you come back? Why didn't you tell me? And you came straight out from underground?"
After saying this, he glanced at the innocent-looking Medea and said in a deliberately loud voice: "Stay away from those questionable people. In this world, only blood relatives are trustworthy."
"It's been so long, and you still haven't established a good relationship?" Li Yisi said speechlessly.
"Brother Nian Gao is always on guard against us." Medea quietly pointed at the bear, hinting that they shared a common grievance. "There's no time for relationships."
In fact, Katakuri tolerated Medea's existence on the island and even touched his mother because of his trust in Liis.
Liis decided not to delve into it. She looked at Medea and changed the subject: "Should this mountain be put back?"
Although the scene of Big Mom emerging from underground is exaggerated, for those affiliated pirate groups, why Big Mom came out from underground is a difficult and troublesome problem that is difficult to explain.
However, Katakuri didn't seem to be bothered by this at all. His observation Haki had anticipated Liis's question in advance.
"We don't need to explain to them. After all, they are not qualified," said Katakuri.
It's really high and mighty.
Li Yisi didn't intend to get involved in that: "I've been here for a long time, it's time to leave."
"Liis?" Katakuri asked in confusion, "Where else are you going?"
Katakurimoto felt that since Liis had returned, it was time for her to return to the Charlotte family. With her abilities and current bounty, she was capable of becoming a cadre on par with himself in the family.
But Li Yisi shook her head: "There's a chance."
This was the most common polite phrase she used in her previous life, which was a euphemism for saying that she would not come back.
"..." Katakuri was stunned. He stared blankly at Liis's profile.
The girl had only been at sea for a few months, but now she seemed to have grown up a lot. Perhaps it was because of her developmental age, but it was also definitely related to her adventures during this period.
Maybe she has her own adventures too.
Katakuri thought about it and glanced fiercely at Medea who was stuck together with Liis.
Medea pretended not to see it and floated back to the cave with Liis in her arms.
There was another tremor, the earth shook, and the mountains slowly shrank back like squeezed acne scars.
Katakuri silently watched the mountains shrink back into the ground. He guessed that Liis's sudden return must be because Medea did something underground.
Normally, if you want to enter the underground base, you should swim through the sea, which is a natural barrier for devil fruit users.
Katakuri glanced at Big Mom, who was lying on a bed of rice cakes, then turned his gaze back to the bear beside him: "You go deal with those vassals, I'll take Mom back to her castle."
By the way, I asked someone to prepare dessert to deal with the trouble when my mother wakes up.
Just as Katakuri walked up to Big Mom and was about to lift the bed, a voice came from behind him.
"Let me do it." Katakuri was stunned. He turned around and saw Medea, who was supposed to go back underground with Liis, appear behind him.
"..."
Medea's real body has been staying in a secret base underground, and the ones walking on land are her various clones. Katakuri doesn't know how many clones she has.
He had an inexplicable feeling of powerlessness, as if the island was secretly controlled by Medea in a place he couldn't even see, and he didn't even know where to fight back.
Katakuri looked at Homies who was passing by. Through Homies' cartoon-like eyes, he felt as if he was looking into Medea's light-colored eyes.
Medea chanted a spell, lifted up the aunt, and carried her towards the castle.
She looked back and saw that Katakuri had indeed followed her.
Sure enough, it is unlikely to have a good relationship with this brother-in-law, so I can only place my hope on my mother-in-law.
Big Mom drank the potion she had just prepared and actually lost her memory. Fortunately, as soon as she woke up, her consciousness was engulfed by bulimia, so her vassals did not become suspicious.
Medea volunteered to move the aunt, actually to ensure that the first person she saw when she woke up would be herself.
Birds have a rubbing phenomenon, and they will recognize the first living thing they see after opening their eyes as their mother.
Of course, the aunt wouldn't be like that, but for a person with amnesia, they will feel a certain sense of intimacy with the first person they see after waking up.
This is Medea's deep purpose. She wants to become besties with the amnesiac aunt... and also wants her to agree to her marriage with Liis!
Medea found it funny to think of the foolish girls fighting with each other on the ship.
By using this trick to hold her mother hostage to control the Master, Medea firmly believed that she had a firm grasp on the position of the Queen.
······
As the earth returned, the cave was reconnected with the secret base underground.
Medea's real body stayed underground, and as soon as they met, she dismissed the clones around Liis.
After watching the process of boiling medicine with Liis, Bonnie was sent back to the mirror world, and now she is the only one left here.
Liis walked to the spiritual vein where the spirit particle transfer had been arranged, and suddenly stopped.
She looked at Medea's medicine table, where, besides the empty bottle of medicine for her mother, there was another bottle of red potion.
"Did you make two bottles of medicine? What is that bottle for?" Li Yisi raised her finger and pointed to the bottle of red medicine and asked.
