"Bang!!!"
A loud bang.
Bright red blood, accompanied by countless sticky substances, splattered.
"Waaah..." Katakuri's face contorted, and he spat out mouthfuls of blood, sent flying backward like a cannonball. In a flash, he, who had been suspended in mid-air, was unable to directly create large amounts of sticky substance to block with his Devil Fruit ability, but after coating himself with Haki, he still managed to cushion most of the force.
"Thump..."
Darkness permeated.
The ground continuously caved in, cracking and spreading out like a spiderweb. Katakuri was directly plunged into the darkness-shrouded earth, his figure completely obscured.
"Swish—"
Endless darkness, directly engulfed him! Katakuri's pupils constricted sharply, unable to leap up in time. Before the darkness completely swallowed him, he covered his entire body with Haki.
"Rumble..."
The materialized darkness, like solid rock yet like a muddy whirlpool, wildly swirled and compressed.
"Boom!!"
"Damn it!!"
Katakuri, covered in Haki, scrambled out in a sorry state, drenched in blood.
"Roar—"
But in an instant, large patches of darkness converged. One after another, hideous Qilin, resembling small mountains, roared menacingly as they pressed down, crushing him...
"Boom!!!"
At the port of Cotton Candy Island, on the undulating sea surface. Waves upon waves surged, constantly rolling towards the deep sea.
"That bastard!!"
"Lord Katakuri..."
Baron Tamago and the others on the Singing Ship, looking at Katakuri who was directly enveloped by darkness on half the island, drenched in blood and constantly being crushed by those ferocious Qilin, their hearts were already in their throats, extremely tense.
"If a tight armor is worn, to a certain extent it can block contact with darkness. Although it cannot last long, they have finally found a 'flaw' in the opponent's ability! Bon~!"
Baron Tamago's worried expression remained unchanged, but at least he wasn't as filled with fear and unease as he was initially. The opponent's ability was indeed dangerous, but fortunately, it wasn't truly invincible.
Vinsmoke Ichiji came alone, most likely wanting to cooperate with the BIG MOM Pirates rather than specifically looking for trouble. It's likely that Sweet Commander Katakuri wouldn't be in mortal danger. And according to Sweet Commander Smoothie, BIG MOM herself has already arrived. Just thinking of BIG MOM, who was currently in a furious rage, made Baron Tamago break out in a cold sweat.
"Roar—"
"Bang!!", "Rumble!!"
One Qilin after another roared, directly suppressing Katakuri. Even with a layer of 'Mochi Armor' covering his body, unlike his initial passive state, he continuously extended his fists and feet to blast away the ferocious beasts pressing down on him, but he simply couldn't get as close to Ichiji as before.
"Truly a tough bone, still unwilling to yield?" Ichiji sneered. Although his Observation Haki wasn't as exaggerated as Katakuri's, he had directly overheard Baron Tamago's conversation with BIG MOM.
"But since that woman is coming here personally, I don't have the time to keep dragging this out with you!"
Eerie black smoke continuously billowed from his entire body. Ichiji himself instantly turned pitch black, and in a moment, a layer of dark armor covered him.
His powerful aura continuously surged upwards! His purpose in coming to Whole Cake Island this time was naturally not just to show off his strength and cause trouble; he mainly wanted to form an alliance with BIG MOM.
The World Government, with hundreds of years of history and profound heritage, clearly couldn't be destroyed in a day or two. Moreover,
the forces under its command were simply incomparable to current Germa 66. To completely destroy this behemoth in the shortest possible time, he would have to ally with more forces.
But if he didn't display strength that earned their approval, or even their fear, even if BIG MOM agreed to an alliance with Germa 66,
she might not truly view Germa 66 on the same level as the BIG MOM Pirates. Ichiji had no doubt that she might harbor the foolish idea of slowly devouring Germa 66. That crazy old hag could do anything!
"This chilling sense of oppression..."
"That bastard's aura is even more terrifying. Is he going all out?"
Baron Tamago and the others, far away on the Singing Ship, felt an immense oppressive force, looking at Ichiji, who was slowly walking towards Katakuri, his aura constantly shifting. He roared 'Baku' in his original voice.
Small steps, quick strides, furious dashes, sweeping flights...
Afterimages flickered, and his entire being instantly transformed into a swift black streak of light!
"...That guy..."
Katakuri, who was currently being besieged by several huge Qilin and unable to break free, instantly felt his hairs stand on end, and his face changed drastically! Without thinking, he immediately followed!
The next moment—
"Boom!!!"
The head of a giant beast, the size of a small mountain, as hard as steel, was instantly blasted through by the black 'streak of light,' truly unbelievable. Katakuri couldn't help but feel a chill run down his spine!
"Roar!"
A roar like thunder. A blood-red, cavernous maw bit down. But Katakuri, with his precognition, couldn't help but continuously retreat explosively.
"Blood Shadow Scythe!"
An incredible trajectory sliced through the air. The black figure arrived with a furious kick. His right leg seemed to transform into a giant axe, cleaving through the air!
Fierce gales, howling incessantly!
"Bang!!!"
Katakuri, with his Haki-covered hands, barely managed to block the terrifying kick. His elastic Mochi Armor cushioned some of the force, but his arms were still numb from the shock, and his entire body was directly propelled towards the ground by that terrifying power.
"This monster!!!"
Katakuri, his face grim, had already foreseen this scene, but there was no escaping it. The speed difference between the two was too great; there was simply no way to make an effective response in such a short time!
"Swish"
"Next is that strange gravity? Damn it!!"
While flying backward, unable to stabilize his body, Katakuri gritted his teeth. Large amounts of sticky substance continuously gushed from his body, endlessly expanding his 'armor'!
"Dark Water Current!"
