Chapter 26 - Final Clash with Big Mom & Shanks and Preparation for Jirō.

Sunny POV – Month Four

The battlefield was a mess of floating boulders, shattered mountains, and air itself swirling unnaturally under my influence. Big Mom groaned as she recovered, her massive fists trembling slightly from my last Space Crunch-assisted strike. Shanks, however, was still composed, though his eyes betrayed a hint of caution.

> {Ego}: Master, look at them… they still underestimate you. Hilarious.

[System]: Master, I want to see the look on their faces when reality bends to your will.

I stretched my arms and grinned. "Alright, round two… let's see how long you last."

Day 131 – Tactical Observation

I activated Observation Haki, scanning every muscle twitch, every micro-motion in the air around them. Using Space Crunch, I folded micro-areas of space between us to adjust the trajectory of their attacks even before they moved.

> Shanks lunged, but the moment his blade entered the folded space, it was slightly delayed. I flicked my wrist and redirected the strike into a floating boulder.

Big Mom tried to stomp me, but I bent the air with Air Crunch, hardening it like a cage around her foot. Then, I squeezed slightly, enough to lift her off the ground for a split second.

> {Ego}: Master, your timing… impeccable as always.

[System]: Master, yes… yes… I adore the chaos.

Day 135 – Comedy Amid Chaos

During a brief lull, Big Mom tripped on a piece of her own debris, landing face-first. I couldn't help but laugh.

> "Oops! Sorry… not sorry!" I yelled.

Shanks muttered something under his breath and glared.

> {Ego}: Master, your humor… terrifyingly effective.

[System]: Master, adorable and deadly. Perfect combo.

I grabbed a chunk of floating rock and Air Crunched it into several tiny, spinning discs around Shanks, forcing him to continuously adjust his stance.

> "You really like throwing rocks, huh?" he commented dryly.

> "I like spinning air," I corrected cheerfully, flipping midair and delivering a Bang + Jirō combo elbow strike.

Day 140 – Precision Haki Assault

With both emperors staggered, I folded space under Big Mom's feet and simultaneously manipulated the air around Shanks' blade. My strikes hit with surgical precision, tearing at their balance without giving them a chance to land a counterattack.

> {Ego}: Master, the probability of them recovering without injury is… minimal.

[System]: Master, this is delightful. I love the chaos, yes… yes…

Big Mom tried to counter with a massive punch, but the space fold redirected her fist into a nearby floating boulder. I then used the displaced kinetic energy to launch Haki-enhanced Air Crunch slashes at Shanks.

> Shanks blocked them with his sword, but each strike left a small crack in his armor-like aura.

Day 150 – Syncing Martial Arts

I moved with the flow of my Bang + Jirō techniques, combining them with Space Crunch folds and Air Crunch strikes. Every movement was a mix of martial grace, Haki mastery, and improvisational chaos.

> {Ego}: Master, your flow… like water, like fire… deadly.

[System]: Master, you are perfection itself. I love watching you.

Shanks and Big Mom were forced into defensive formations, coordinating their attacks in ways I hadn't seen before. I grinned at the challenge.

> "You've got style… but I've got chaos," I said, flipping backwards and landing on a floating shard of rock.

Day 160 – Momentum Shift

With both emperors slightly exhausted, I realized it was time for a calculated risk. Using Space Crunch, I folded a localized pocket of space beneath Big Mom and Shanks simultaneously.

> Big Mom crashed into the ground, sliding several hundred meters. Shanks was suspended midair, his sword slightly delayed due to space distortion.

I landed gracefully between them and delivered a concentrated Bang-style Haki bomb, reinforced with Air Crunch. The shockwave alone sent both emperors reeling.

> {Ego}: Master, calculated chaos… perfect execution.

[System]: Master, they have no idea… delicious.

I paused, surveying the battlefield. Both emperors were formidable, but their exhaustion gave me an edge.

> "Alright… time for the finale," I whispered to myself.

Day 170 – The Last Dance

I unleashed a flurry of combined techniques:

Bang + Jirō combos with enhanced speed.

Air Crunch-infused Haki blades slicing through space itself.

Micro-space folds controlling distance and attack vectors.

Big Mom tried to counter with a massive shockwave, but I bent the air, hardening it into a wall. Shanks' sword attack sliced through the air, but the folded space delayed its impact, giving me a split-second to land a decisive elbow strike reinforced with Conqueror Haki.

> {Ego}: Master… you look adorable doing this… lethal, but adorable.

[System]: Master… perfection… chaos… lethal chaos…

Big Mom collapsed onto the ground, groaning. Shanks was on one knee, his sword slightly bent from Haki pressure.

> "And… that's how it's done," I said, brushing my hands off.

Day 180 – Aftermath & Reflection

The battlefield was silent. Floating rocks hovered, torn mountains smoked, and the air hummed with residual Haki energy. I sat cross-legged, smiling like a child who had just finished a puzzle.

> {Ego}: Master, the probability of Jirō underestimating you… extremely high.

[System]: Master, and he won't know what hit him… delicious.

I looked up at the sky, thinking about the final battle ahead. "4 emperors down… now it's you, Jirō."

> {Ego}: Master, the fun is just beginning.

[System]: Master… maximum chaos… maximum perfection…

And with that, the next chapter loomed: Sunny versus Jirō, the final boss of this manufactured hell dimension.
