Chapter 378 Big Mom's Death!
The body of 'Holo Jisung' was buried in the forest where he used to practice against the Big Mom Pirates brothers. There is no tombstone, and not many people even know about it. Only a few people from Katakuri were buried. Yes, made a certain mark.
He died for more than five years, and the body had not undergone special treatment. When it was dug up, it had already turned into a white bone.
Ji Xing admired his perfect skeleton for a while, then bent down and removed a rib and put it in his arms, saving it for follow-up experiments.
They are all made of seven-star beads, and there may be something in common. His physical ability with the talent of the big stomach king is far stronger than that of Ji Xing, who is now talented with the great swordsman, and maybe he can come in handy.
By his side, Perospero and the others looked at Ji Xing and then at the skeleton, with blank expressions and indescribable emotions.
So it's not fake death?
They thought that what they would see after digging the pit would be an empty tomb, so they would be more psychologically acceptable.
In the end, the corpse was there, and the person was still alive. The corpse...whose corpse is it?
"Are you... are you really Ji Xing?" Owen couldn't help asking: "I don't remember that you have the devil fruit ability. At that time, my mother mentioned that I would find a suitable fruit for you..."
"Then give it a try?" Ji Xing asked.
Owen fell silent.
Katakuri asked, "What was the reason why I stopped your mother for you back then?"
Ji Xing replied: "I was threatened. Because I know her biggest secret, the Carmelite nun was eaten by her by mistake."
Katakuri was silent for a moment: "I have also wondered over the years, why did you know that matter, now it seems that you really have a huge secret, even... before the 'Holo Jixing' , do you have another identity?"
Ji Xing smiled and didn't explain anymore.
"Giggle... Pero..." Perospero, who was sticking out his long tongue, suddenly let out a trademark strange smile, and said: "Knowing so many things that only a few of us know, it seems that there is nothing wrong Ji Xing, you really gave us a huge surprise. Three years ago, you were the strongest in the world who defeated Mom and Kaido together?
Now...how do you count? Are you friends with us? It can't be the enemy, right? "
He asked and looked at the other brothers and sisters, hurry up and seize the opportunity, this is the strongest in the world!
"It is a benefactor." Katakuri said: "We are very grateful that you made such a choice back then, did not tell mother the truth, and did not let the world be destroyed. Although it seems that you did not pay such a heavy price with your life, but death Last time, there will definitely be no cost."
Perospero breathed a sigh of relief, and Katakuri actually said something nice, but the next moment Katakuri said again: "Also an enemy."
"Because of us, you had to die last time. If I hadn't taken you away from Hatkinos Island, nothing would have happened. Now you have the ability to avenge us."
Perospero almost bit off his tongue, and giggled twice: "The enemy is a bit exaggerated, isn't this, isn't this dead..."
"The enemy is indeed exaggerating." Ji Xing smiled and said: "Even if I contradicted Big Mom face to face, Katakuri and Owen, you still wanted to save me. I recognize the friendship of the family.
But when I 'died' back then, the grievances and grievances were resolved, and now it's a bit too much to say that we are still friends, even if they are... familiar strangers. "
"Hehehe...then let's get to know each other again and re-establish our friendship."
Perospero really worked hard, but the few people around him couldn't help him. Owen said: "Then what do you mean by coming back this time? If you just want to tell us that you are not dead, three years ago will be fine." , why come at this time?"
"First, I want rubbings of the red history text and other history texts." Ji Xing said.
Red history text?
"You, you want to be the One Piece?!"
Ji Xing shook his head: "Secondly... I heard that the Big Mom Pirates changed hands, so I came here to confirm Big Mom's situation, is she not dead?"
Katakuri nodded slowly.
"I'm imprisoned." Ji Xing looked at him and said, "What are you going to do? She is not someone who will subdue her children, so you want to keep her imprisoned forever? This is very dangerous first of all. If she escapes accidentally, all of you will be killed." To die, and secondly...
Even if you can keep her locked up, is it possible to let such a female pirate who represents an era slowly die of old age in the cell? Or was betrayed by all children to death? "
Katakuri was silent.
The rest of the people were also silent.
"You don't want to kill her. No matter how much she controls your life and puts pressure on you when she is in power, she is the mother who gave you life after all. You can't bear her life, and you dare not bear it." Ji Xing said.
"So... just let me recite it."
bang——
It was as if another thunderbolt rolled down!
The pupils of Katakuri and the others froze suddenly, and their eyes focused on Ji Xing like suspicious ears.
Ji Xing repeated: "Let me kill her, we have a grudge, not counting my death, she and Kaido also besieged me three years ago, if I hadn't been superior, I would have died that time , so it is reasonable for me to take revenge on her."
"...No, no!" Smoothie said excitedly, "How can... Mom, she..."
"Stop talking nonsense, Ji Xing!" Owen also stared, "How could you kill her?!"
Ji Xing smiled: "No? Then stop me, I want to kill, can you stop me?"
Everyone was silent again for an instant.
Just like when he heard that Ji Xing was not dead and had become the world's strongest man, he was at a loss and couldn't make a sound.
...
Before long, Cake Island was in chaos.
An order "from Big Mom" was passed on by Katakuri: "Because of the reconstruction of the environment of Cake Island, all residents of Cake Island need to temporarily relocate to the adjacent island for a few days. '
This situation must have turned against Yingtian in an ordinary town, but it was normal in Wanguo. The residents obediently brought their valuables and went to the pier to board the ship in an orderly manner, with only a few verbal doubts.
The only ones who will question it are brothers and sisters.
Many children of Big Mom who served as ministers in other islands of the world, did not get an answer after calling, and many rushed to Cake Island, all of them looked very nervous.
"What's wrong? Why..."
"Brother Katakuri! Could it be that something happened to my mother?!"
"Is mom coming out?!"
Dissuaded by Katakuri's silent expression, they went to the pier to evacuate civilians with panic and confusion, and were strictly ordered not to allow anyone to approach the upper center of Cake Island.
In the center of Cake Island, Katakuri and the others, who had made all the arrangements and preparations, brought Ji Xing to the depths of Big Mom's castle.
Come to the cell where Big mom is held!
Except for Katakuri, Perospero and others didn't dare to approach here before, but this time they all walked in the door bravely.
Big mom squatting in the cell was like a trapped beast, when he sensed someone approaching, he immediately stared fiercely at him.
Ji Xing standing next to Katakuri could not be ignored by anyone, even if a group of damned children came, Big Mom's eyes fell on him in an instant.
Unexpected, irritable, indifferent.
All kinds of emotions flashed, and her mother laughed loudly: "Why, these bastards who betrayed my mother found you as a backer before they dared to do this?! Or did you hear about my mother and came here specially to see it? Old lady's joke?!"
Even when she saw Ji Xing, who was invincible, she would not show the slightest fear. Ji Xing didn't answer, just took the key given by Katakuri, stepped forward to open the cell door, and went forward to unlock Big Mom's sea tower stone chain.
Big mom didn't move, until the chain was completely untied, then he stood up and moved his body.
She looked at Katakuri and the others.
Calm, fearful, sad.
She looked down at Ji Xing again: "What does this mean? Are you underestimating my old lady?"
"I'm Holo Ji Xing." Ji Xing said.
"……Um?"
"Um?!!"
boom--
The crimson domineering color erupted instantly, Owen and the others staggered back, Big mom stared at Ji Xing's eyes to the limit: "What did you say?!"
Ji Xing said: "I'm Holo Ji Xing. I escaped from feigning death five years ago, and now I'm very powerful. I'm going back to Wan Guo...to take revenge on you."
"You bastard...how could it be..."
"Mom." Katakuri interrupted: "Let's go to the castle hall and talk, I have asked the chefs to prepare enough food for you."
Big mom squinted at him, then looked at Ji Xing, was silent for a few seconds, stepped out of the cell, then said nothing, walked towards the castle hall in silence, with swaying steps, still like a king inspecting himself territory.
Ji Xing followed behind.
Katakuri and the others were behind Ji Xing again.
Pushing open the gate of the castle hall, the fragrance of all kinds of cakes wafted in. Not only the round table, but also various delicacies were placed on the ground of almost a thousand square meters in the huge hall!
Big mom grabbed two pieces and stuffed them into his mouth, walked to the main seat and sat down.
Ji Xing followed on one side, Katakuri on the other side, and the rest took their places one by one.
"Ji Xing? Ji Xing... Mom, Mom, I have such a good eye." After swallowing two pieces of cake, Big Mom finally spoke again, looked at Ji Xing and said, "Come on! Eat! Last time you were far behind, this time This time, the two of us will compare our appetite again!"
Ji Xing shook his head: "I died once and paid a lot of money. Now I can't eat that much."
"Really? Disappointing." Big mom shook his head, and started to eat, Ji Xing followed suit, and Katakuri and others followed in silence.
Just like the "last family dinner" more than five years ago, Katakuri and the others couldn't eat anymore, and sat down in their seats without saying a word.
Although Ji Xing lacked the talent of being a big eater, Life Return deliberately exercised his appetite, and he was still able to eat a ton of food and spend time with Big Mom for a while.
Then Big mom ate alone. She could have eaten since she was imprisoned in the cell, she hadn't eaten anything seriously, she was especially able to eat, sucking in everything like a bottomless pit, the delicious sweets gradually made her forget everything, and narrowed her eyes happily.
Until everything is eaten clean!
Hiccupping in satisfaction, she put on the two-cornered hat placed on the open space, looked around and said, "Katakuri, Perospero, you guys, get out of here, don't be an eyesore here, or... you Planning to besiege my wife with him?"
"Mom." Katakuri said: "It was here five years ago, we besieged Ji Xing. Let's do it again, if we win or repel him together, I hope you can hand over the kingdoms to us, Retire. If we lose to him..."
"Mom, mom..." Big mom laughed loudly: "Retire?! I won't retire!
Katakuri, you should know me, as long as you free your hands, you bastards who betrayed my mother will all die! And I don't need the help of you weaklings, you guys combined are better than Kaido! "
"But we are your sons and daughters."
"Hmph——son? Daughter? A child locked up by the old lady?! Tsk, if you're not afraid of death, just stay here! The old lady's attack won't evade you!" Big mom grabbed both hands, Zeus and Brand New Prometheus appeared and was caught by her.
"Mom, are you finally out of trouble?!"
"Those damned traitors!"
"Wait—is this guy?"
Big mom clenched her hands, her huge body carried a mountain-like oppressive force, and looked down at Ji Xing: "The last defeat brought me a lot of reflection. In the past three years, my mother has not made any progress! If you think It would be a big mistake to win me easily! Mom—”
"Thunderfire!" Huoyun and Leiyun slapped towards the center, and the dazzling brilliance spread out.
Lightning and flames intermingled, and strange ripples arose under the surging overlord's color, and the space was caressed with ripples!
The magnificent heat baptism, the dining table in front of her and the empty plates on the dining table melted instantly, the terrifying temperature seemed to surpass that of volcanic lava!
Katakuri and the others jumped back.
Ji Xing touched the handle of the knife.
Knife out! fire off! People fly!
In an instant, change the world!
Big mom with a big white belly and blood crashed into the wall, sat in the ruins and stared at Ji Xing who was holding a knife in his hand with some astonishment.
"Mom, mom—are you still getting stronger?!" Then she laughed a few times, grabbed the two-cornered hat and machete with her backhand, and consumed her three years of life at once, and her body swelled to the extreme, almost 20 The giant rice!
At the same time, Ji Xing's feet suddenly turned into syrup entanglement, Owen's high-heat fist, Katakuri's glutinous rice halberd, and Smoothie's juicer's knife rushed towards Ji Xing from three directions!
"Get in the way! Get the hell out of here!" Big mom's roar exploded with thunder.
Katakuri also responded with a domineering look: "Mom! We have long stopped listening to you, haven't we?! Glutinous ball thrust!"
Ji Xing's black knife flipped over, and the ring of sword wind swept out. The four of them were flying blood in an instant, and Dafu's demon was directly killed.
During the flying, Katakuri tore off the scarf, and grinned like a big mouth: "Is this the strongest in the world? Ji Xing, let our family... let's experience your strength again!"
"ah--"
Owen growled.
Smoothie screamed.
Daifuku grinds his belly to make sparks.
Big mom silently watched them being injured for the second time, and finally raised his knife and slashed down!
Click——
The violent shock wave tore apart the sweet castle, cracked the sky, gathered dark clouds, and made the doomsday scene appear in the sky above Cake Island!
...
On the coast, after the other Big Mom children who came to Cake Island evacuated the civilians, they listened to Katakuri's order and stood by the coast.
As soon as the magnificent shock wave in the center of the island erupted, they immediately felt it, and the vision that gradually became apparent later explained everything.
In the castle, someone is fighting!
Is mom really out of trouble? Brother Katakuri, can they lock up mom again?
They gathered together, thinking about the past but not daring to go, and waited nervously for half an hour before the shock and vibration in the center finally stopped.
"……finished?"
"Who won? We..."
A few stronger children hesitated to form a team to investigate, and let others wait for news.
At this time, Pokmus, a lion fur family, suddenly jumped out: "Everyone, wait! The battle just now is not necessarily about mom and Katakuri and the others! Before, before, we found that Horo, the strongest man in the world, appeared on the cake Island!"
"……What?!"
"Holo?! The monster that defeated Mom and Kaido?!"
"Why didn't you say it earlier?!"
"Brother Katakuri and the others..."
"Wait? Who saw Flampe?!"
...
On the other side, the sweet castle and square have been completely reduced to ruins, and even the top layer of the cake island is almost collapsed.
Big mom's body returned to its normal size, even a little thinner, lying on the ground with disheveled hair, blood staining her body red, her eyes looking at the sky in confusion, as if she felt that something was missing.
Then something was put into his hand.
She raised her hand and held it in front of her eyes.
It was a photo. In the photo, the old lady was wearing a nun's attire, with a cigarette in her right hand, sitting sideways, looking at her with a smile.
There was a smile on her equally old face.
"Sister, we are finally reunited."
After a moment of silence, she opened her mouth wide, swallowed the photo dryly, opened her mouth again, and sang:
"Binks' wine
Send it to your side"
Suddenly someone in the ruins responded: "Like the sea breeze, do whatever you wantRide the wind and break the waves"
Then there is the third person: "On the other side of the sea the setting sun is also noisy"
One person said one sentence, and then they continued. The chorus sang the songs they were taught when they were young. Big mom's voice gradually became cheerful, and he saw the picture of himself when he was the happiest.
Gradually, her voice faded away.
Several other people also became intermittent, with choked voices obviously mixed in.
Ji Xing walked over to Katakuri who closed his eyes and hummed and wept, and sat down on a gravel. Just like Katakuri who obviously resisted and imprisoned Big Mom would cry at this time, Ji Xing's mood is also a little complicated and difficult to understand.
Behind him, a poisonous needle pierced his neck, but it bounced off without breaking the skin, and then the 13-year-old bun-faced girl flew and kicked, and was grabbed by Ji Xing and held down on her leg.
"Damn it! Don't hurt Katakuri brother... Hey, who is this?" Flampe, who had never seen Katakuri's big mouth under her scarf, even forgot about being caught, stared blankly at Kata Kuri.
The other brothers and sisters who rushed over not far away saw Big mom's body for the first time, and they froze in place with horror on their faces!
"Mom...was..."
"That rascal……"
Shocked, scared, overwhelmed.
The blue-white-haired girl gritted her teeth and drew out a long knife, pointing at Ji Xing: "Let go of Flampe! Get away from Brother Katakuri!"
Ji Xing looked at her, the familiar arm armor and the familiar long knife, the familiar two-jointed arms.
"Mukuru, have two walnuts."
"..."
With a clang, the long knife fell to the ground.
On January 28, 1520 in the lunar calendar, Charlotte Lingling, the most powerful female pirate in history and the pirate emperor, brought her children to face the world's strongest Holo.
Invincible, dead!
Um……
