"How did she get here so fast! From Totto Land to here, even without storms, it should take at least ten days! Did she use some other power?!"
Aokiji was shocked, his face filled with disbelief. He had thought there was enough time, so instead of moving G-K Branch immediately, he had followed Creed from behind. Now, this was a huge mistake, and regret filled his heart.
He had only just awakened his fruit, and he wasn't strong enough to face a top-level monster like Big Mom.
Quickly, he made a decision. "Creed, this is my fault. I'll draw her away. You take G-K Branch and run!"
But Creed unsheathed Rinne and shook his head. "No, I'll draw her away. I still have a score to settle with her. G-K Branch will be in your hands."
To run away with G-K Branch himself? Ridiculous. He was already a traitor of the Marines!
Before Aokiji could argue, Creed flashed into golden light and shot straight toward the Queen Mama Chanter.
Besides, he wanted to see Big Mom's attributes, to see if he could extract one. Every Yonko possessed at least two SSSS-level abilities. Risky, yes—but also an opportunity!
"Damn it!"
Aokiji stamped his foot and turned into icy mist, heading toward G-K Branch. He only hoped Big Mom hadn't brought other Sweet Commanders. Otherwise, even he couldn't protect them.
The fury of any Yonko could shake the entire New World.
On the Queen Mama Chanter's throne sat a giant woman, obese and towering, with heavy lipstick, light purple eyeshadow, a pirate hat, and a pink dress.
One of the Four Emperors—Big Mom!
Beneath her throne stood a tall figure clad in black-and-white biscuit armor, wearing a horned helmet, with a long pointed beard, wielding both sword and shield.
Big Mom's tenth son: Charlotte Cracker.
One of the Sweet Commanders, Minister of Biscuits, bounty 860 million belly!
Because she was only targeting the small G-K Branch, Big Mom hadn't brought any other Commanders. She believed Cracker was enough.
Sensing the incoming flash of light, both she and Cracker reacted instantly, their powerful Observation Haki locking onto Creed.
"Mom, let me take care of him," Cracker said.
"Go." Big Mom nodded.
Cracker leapt into the air, sword swirling into a spiral slash that ripped the sky.
Creed dodged effortlessly, then countered with a sharp slash, aiming straight for the Queen Mama Chanter.
If he was going to draw Big Mom's attention, then sinking her ship was the best way to do it. The ship was her pride—destroying it would guarantee her rage.
"Impudent!"
Cracker realized immediately that this was no weak foe. His blade blazed with energy as he struck against Creed's sword aura.
Explosion Pretzel!
Clang!
The collision rang out, sword energy blasting in all directions. Tart ships escorting the flagship were torn apart, some sinking instantly amid screams.
"Mom! It's Creed—the man who defeated Doflamingo!" Cracker shouted when he recognized his opponent.
"And I'll be the one who defeats you!"
Creed's eyes sharpened as he unleashed a strike of pure darkness, filled with murderous intent.
Kyoku Aku no Ichi Ken! (Extremely Evil Sword!)
"No—!"
The dreadful aura shook Cracker's very soul. He swung desperately with his Pretzel sword, but his biscuit armor shattered to pieces, his real body revealed and slashed bloody.
He would have been finished—if not for Big Mom herself intervening.
Even at only two-thirds power, the Extremely Evil Sword was more than Cracker could withstand.
"Prometheus!"
A blazing fire whip lashed down, cutting off Creed's attack. The flames crackled with eerie life, surrounding him in an instant.
Creed's body flashed into light, slipping free of the firestorm. His blade rose again, slashing downward.
Shizen no Ichi Ken! (Supremely Good Sword!)
This was the new technique he had mastered after using the Sword Dao Enlightenment Card, fusing the paths of gods, men, and asura. He had never used it before.
Against a monster like Big Mom, it was time to test its power!
The Extremely Evil Sword was destructive and physical. The Supremely Good Sword, however, targeted the soul. Like water, silent and unstoppable, it eroded the spirit. Against weaker wills, a single strike could shatter resolve and crush fighting spirit.
And Big Mom was notorious for her unstable mind. Her hunger pangs alone could make her rampage, even destroying her own country and killing her own children.
Creed aimed straight at her weakness—her unstable soul!
