Chapter 26 - Nagato Versus Big Mom!

Pandemonium erupted instantly.

The moment Enel's Raigō annihilated one of Totto Land's nearby islands, the Tea Party shattered into pure chaos. Screams filled the air as underworld brokers, pirates, and dignitaries bolted in every direction, overturning tables and trampling each other to escape. Food flew, chairs crashed, and the once–elegant banquet transformed into a frantic stampede.

Big Mom's children surged forward to attack, fury twisting their faces.

Crackers soldiers cracked apart under Deidara's explosions. Daifuku's genie clashed with Kisame, only to be overwhelmed by a wave of water. Smoothie lunged toward Konan, only for paper spears to slice through the air, forcing her back.

Hidan was laughing hysterically as usual, despite being the only one getting visibly beaten around thanks to his reckless style, while Kakuzu kept dragging him out of danger between blows, cursing the whole time.

Itachi remained still, his gaze on Katakuri, having been entrusted by Nagato before they arrived, to handle him.

Katakuri appeared behind him mid-step, trident thrust forward

Only for the world to blur.

Katakuri froze.The scenery shifted. He was now tied on a stake with hundreds of Itachis appearing around him and beginning to stab him.

The real Itachi stood before him

"Tsukuyomi" 

After what seemed like a second in the real world, Katakuri dropped to the ground unconscious.

Upon seeing this, the rest of her children got scared and began trying to save Katakuri.

Itachi used Amaterasu, creating a barrier of black flames around him and Katakuri and just stared.

Meanwhile, just a short distance away, two monstrous forces faced each other.

Big Mom glared at Nagato, her aura exploding outward in a tidal wave of soul-rending pressure,. The air thickened, and the ground trembled.

"LIFE! OR! DEATH!" she roared, her voice shaking the sky.

The guests who hadn't fled collapsed in terror.

But Nagato calmly stared, unafraid and said

"Your death."

A moment later

SUPER SHINRA TENSEI.

The force blasted outward, Big Mom's massive body was hurled backward, smashing through layers of candy architecture as Nagato immediately flashed forward after her, pulling their impending clash away from the others.

The sky itself trembled as they moved, leaving destruction in their wake.

Big Mom roared, her voice shaking candy towers and sending cracks through the frosting-coated earth. "Zeus! Prometheus!"

Her homies materialized instantly. Zeus churned into a storm cloud, sparks exploding across the sky. Prometheus burned white-hot, flames spilling off him.

They surged toward Nagato in a coordinated assault.

Nagato calmly pressed his hands to the ground

"Kuchiyose no Jutsu."

A pulse of chakra rippled outward. In a flash, the battlefield filled with his titanic summons—the multi-headed dog snarling as it lunged at Zeus, the chameleon vanishing into the air, the bird shrieking as it intercepted Prometheus. A battlefield of monsters clashed with a battlefield of living homies.

Big Mom barreled through the chaos, fist cocked back. "Soul Punch!"

Nagato met her head-on.

The ground cratered beneath them as their blows collided, her raw physical might versus Nagato's Shinra Tensei. The force shook the island so violently that sugar cliffs collapsed in sheets.

Nagato's eyes sharpened, realizing he wasn't a match for her the way he was fighting currently. No more holding back.

Perfect Susanoo erupted around him—a colossal, armored deity of chakra towering above the homies, the guests, and even parts of Totto Land itself. Its massive blade hummed as it formed.

Big Mom laughed, thrilled. "MAMAMAMA! This is the strength worthy of taking down 2 admirals!"

She swung Napoleon upward. Susanoo's blade met it, and the shockwave blasted frosting off buildings, split candy streets, and sent shockwaves deep into the sea.

They clashed again. And again.

But as minutes passed, Nagato's eyes narrowed. Her durability was absurd—even Perfect Susanoo wasn't cutting deep enough.

So Nagato began infusing his haki into it.

A pulse of chakra emnated through Susanoo.

The air went still as Susanoo's armor darkened… then deepened… then blackened entirely, the energy condensing so densely it seemed to swallow the light around it. The blade transformed from ethereal blue to a terrifying obsidian, its edge humming with Armament Haki so dense the very air split open around it.

Big Mom's grin finally faltered.

Nagato raised the blade one more time—no wasted movement, no unnecessary effort.Just finality.

"Let's end this here."

"Mamamama.. ending it in one final attack? How impatient!"

Big mom suddenly recalled all the soul power she'd split into her main homies, absorbing it all back into herself and then using it alongside her haki in one sword strike.

As the two blades crashed, everything went white..

The explosion of light faded slowly, replaced by a heavy, suffocating silence that rolled across Totto Land like a grave fog. Even the homies stopped moving, eyes wide and trembling.

The island where Nagato and Big Mom had clashed… was gone.

"MAMA!!"Her children screamed, panic overtaking them as they sprinted toward the blast zone. But before they could get anywhere close—

A pillar of lightning slammed down in front of them, scorching the sugar-coated earth and forcing them back.

Enel stood in the center of the crackling crater, his expression pure arrogance and amusement. His body flickered with residual electricity.

"Heh. Panicking already?" he taunted, smirking as arcs danced across his shoulders. "I knew he wouldn't lose to that fat mountain of a woman." Enel thought, having already seen the results with his Mantra.

He threw his head back, laughing."Yahahahahaha!"

The children glared, ready to lunge—but stopped.

Their faces drained of all color. Their breath caught in their throats. Even the wind seemed to freeze.

One by one, all eyes turned toward the horizon.

A massive silhouette emerged through the smoke a towering blue armored being.

A Perfect Susanoo. Still standing, albeit with cracks all over, it still radiated enough pressure to cause despair just by looking at it.

And in its colossal hand…hung the limp, motionless body of Charlotte Linlin.

The Susanoo stepped forward, each footfall shaking the ruined candy landscape. When it finally reached the edge of the remaining island, the great warrior lowered its hand just enough for everyone to see her clearly.

Big Mom—the Yonko feared across the world—hung lifelessly, her eyes dull, her face slack, her aura gone.

No one spoke.No one breathed.

The Akatsuki members stood unflinching.The Big Mom Pirates trembled where they stood.And the entire Tea Party turned from chaos…into absolute, paralyzing stillness.

Nagato calmly dropped Big Mom and then spoke

"From this moment forward, this territory belongs to Akatsuki. You can try to fight back but if you do I will crush you all."

Katakuri stepped forward weakly, having woken up

"We surrender.. just please don't hurt my siblings."

The rest of Big Mom's children began shouting and crying with tears in their eyes

"Katakuri nii don't worry about us! We can still fight!"

Katakuri however looked at them calmly and said, "We'll all be doing nothing but pointlessly rushing to our death. We no longer have to worry about Mama marrying us off randomly, or killing or eating anyone in her fits of rage. As long as we give in to them, we'll have protection even stronger than Mama's was."

Nagato who had already released his susanoo nodded calmly

"You're intelligent. We won't hurt any of you as long as you don't betray us. However any intel and 30% of all profits should be sent to New Amegakure."

Kakuzu in the background was now looking at Nagato as if he was really a god, his eyes gleaming at the thought of more money.

Katakuri grit his teeth before resolutely saying

"We will accept your conditions. I'll make sure none of my siblings act out."
