Chapter 378 Big Mom's Death!

The body of ‘Holo Jixing’ was buried in the forest where he used to practice with his brothers in the Big Mom Pirates. There was no tombstone, and not many people knew about it. It was only Katakuri and a few others who buried it and made some marks.

More than five years after his death, the body had not been specially treated. When it was dug out, it had turned into a pile of bones.

Jixing admired his perfect skeleton for a while, bent down and took off a rib and put it in his arms for subsequent experiments.

They were all bodies made of the Seven Star Beads, so there might be something in common. His physical talent with the talent of a big eater was much stronger than that of Jixing, who was now a great swordsman. Maybe it could come in handy.

On the side, Perospero and others looked at Jixing and then at the skeleton, with wooden expressions and indescribable emotions.

So it wasn’t a fake death?

They thought that after digging the pit, they would see an empty tomb, which would be easier to accept psychologically.

As a result, the body was there, and the person was still alive. Whose body was that?

"Are you...really Ji Xing?" Owen couldn't help asking, "I don't remember you having the power of a devil fruit. At that time, mom mentioned that she would find a suitable fruit for you..."

"Then let's have a try?" Ji Xing asked.

Owen fell silent.

Katakuri asked, "Why did I help you stop mom back then?"

Ji Xing replied, "She was threatened by me. Because I know her biggest secret. Sister Carmelo was eaten by her by mistake."

Katakuri was silent for a moment, "I have wondered why you knew that over the years. Now it seems that you really have a huge secret. Even...before 'Holo Ji Xing', did you have other identities?"

Ji Xing smiled and didn't explain.

"Hehehe... Perospero..." Perospero, with his long tongue sticking out, suddenly laughed his signature weird laugh and said, "It seems that you are right to know so many things that only a few of us know. Ji Xing, you really gave us a huge surprise. The strongest person in the world who defeated Mom and Kaido three years ago turned out to be you?

So now...what do you think? Are you friends with us? You can't be enemies, right?"

He asked and looked at the other brothers and sisters, hurry up and seize the opportunity, this is the strongest person in the world!

"He is a benefactor." Katakuri said, "We are very grateful that you made such a choice back then, not telling mom the truth and not letting the nations be destroyed. Although it seems now that you did not pay such a heavy price with your life, dying once must have cost you a price."

Perospero breathed a sigh of relief. Katakuri actually said something nice, but the next moment he heard Katakuri say, "He is also an enemy."

"Because of us, you had to die once. 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 chuckled awkwardly: "Enemies are a bit exaggerated, right? This, this is not dead..."

"Enemies are indeed exaggerated." Ji Xing smiled and said, "Even if I contradicted Big in person back then, Mom, Katakuri, Owen, you still want to save me. Although your original intention was wrong, I recognize the friendship of treating me as a family member.

However, when I died, the grudges were gone. It’s a bit too much to say that we are still friends now. Let’s just be... familiar strangers. "

"Hehehe... Then let’s get to know each other again and rebuild our friendship."

Perospero really tried hard, but the 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, you can do it three years ago. Why come at this time?"

"First, I want the rubbings of the red historical text and other historical texts." Ji Xing said.

Red historical text?

"You, you want to be the Pirate King? !"

Ji Xing shook his head: "Second, I heard that the Big Mom Pirate Group changed its owner, so I came to confirm the situation of Big Mom. She is not dead, right?"

Katakuri nodded slowly.

"She's imprisoned." Ji Xing looked at him and said, "What are you going to do? She's not someone who will give in to her children. Are you going to keep her imprisoned? First of all, this is very dangerous. If she escapes by accident, you will all die. Secondly...

Even if you can keep her imprisoned, are you going to let such a female pirate who represents an era slowly die of old age in the cell? Or be betrayed and die by all her children?"

Katakuri was silent.

The others were also silent.

"You don't want to kill her. Even if she controls your life when she is in power, no matter how much pressure she brings to you, she is the mother who gave you life after all. You can't afford her life, and you dare not bear it." Ji Xing said.

"So... let me bear it."

Boom--

It was as if another thunder rolled down!

The pupils of Katakuri and others suddenly condensed, and their eyes focused on Ji Xing like suspicious ears.

Ji Xing repeated, "Let me kill her. We have a grudge. Not counting the time when I died, she and Kaido also besieged me three years ago. If I hadn't been more skilled, I would have died that time, so it's reasonable for me to take revenge on her."

"... No, no!" Smoothie said excitedly, "How can... Mom..."

"Don't talk nonsense, Ji Xing!" Owen also glared and said, "How can I let you kill her?!"

Ji Xing smiled: "No? Then come and stop me. I want to kill you. Can you stop me?"

Everyone fell silent again for an instant.

Just like when he heard that Ji Xing was not dead and had become the strongest person in the world, he was at a loss and could not make a sound.

…

Soon after, chaos breaks out on Cake Island.

An order 'from Big Mom' was spread by Katakuri: 'Due to the need to renovate the environment of Cake Island, all residents of Cake Island need to temporarily relocate to neighboring islands for a few days. ’

This would have been an uproar in an ordinary town, but it was normal in Wan Guo. The residents were obedient, took their valuables, and went to the dock to board the ship in an orderly manner. They only expressed a few words of confusion.

The only ones who would question it were the brothers and sisters.

Many children of Big Mom and ministers on other islands in the world did not receive answers after being contacted by phone. Many rushed to Cake Island with very nervous expressions.

"What's wrong? Why..."

"Brother Katakuri! Could it be that something happened to my mother?!"

"Is mommy coming out?!"

They were persuaded by Katakuri's silent expression, and each one with fear and confusion, went to the dock to evacuate the civilians, 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 arrangements and preparations, took Ji Xing to the depths of Big Mom's castle.

Come to the cell where Big Mom is imprisoned!

Except for Katakuri, Perospero and others had not dared to approach this place before, but this time they all had the courage to walk in the door.

Big Mom squatted in the cell like a trapped evil beast. When he felt someone coming, he immediately stared at him with fierce eyes.

Ji Xing standing next to Katakuri could not be ignored by anyone. Even if a bunch of damn children came, Big Mom's eyes still fell on him for an instant.

Unexpected, testy, indifferent.

Various emotions flashed through, and her mother laughed heartily: "Why, did these bastards who betrayed me find you as their backer, so they dared to do this?! Or maybe you heard about me and came here to see me? What a joke!”

Even when Ji Xing was in prison and saw that she was invincible, she would not show the slightest fear. Ji Xing didn't answer. He just took the key given by Katakuri, stepped forward to open the cell door, and then stepped forward to untie Big Mom's sea stone chain.

Big Mom didn't move until the chains were completely removed, then she stood up and moved her body.

She looked at Katakuri and the others.

Calm, scary, sad.

She looked down at Ji Xing again: "What does this mean? Are you looking down on me?"

"I am Holo Ji Xing." Ji Xing said.

"……Um?"

"Um?!!"

boom--

The crimson red color suddenly erupted, Owen and others staggered back, Big Mom stared at Ji Xing to the limit: "What did you say?!"

Ji Xing said: "I am Holo Ji Xing. I faked my death and escaped five years ago. Now I have achieved great strength. I have returned to Ten Thousand Kingdoms... to take revenge on you."

"You guy...how could it be..."

"Mom." Katakuri interrupted: "Let's go to the castle hall to talk. I have asked the chefs to prepare enough food for you."

Big Mom glanced at him sideways, then looked at Ji Xing, was silent for a few seconds, and walked out of the cell. Then without saying a word, she silently walked towards the castle hall, her steps wobbly, still like a king inspecting her. territory.

Ji Xing follows behind.

Katakuri and others are behind Ji Xing again.

Pushing open the door of the castle hall, the fragrance of all kinds of cakes hit your nostrils. Not only the round table, but almost a thousand square meters of ground in the huge hall were filled with various delicacies!

Big mom grabbed two pieces and stuffed them into her mouth, then walked to the main seat and sat down.

Ji Xing followed on one side, Katakuri on the other side, and the others took their positions one by one.

“Jixing? Ji Let’s compare our appetites again!”

Ji Xing shook his head: "I died once and paid a lot of price. Now I can't eat that much."

"Really? It's disappointing." Big mom shook her head and started eating. Ji Xing followed suit, and Katakuri and others followed silently.

Just like the 'last family banquet' more than five years ago, Katakuri and others couldn't eat anymore after eating, and sat in silence with their heads bowed.

Although Ji Xing no longer has the talent of being a big eater, he has deliberately exercised his appetite after returning to life. He can still eat tons of food and spend some time with Big Mom.

Afterwards, Big Mom ate alone. Although she was already capable of eating, she had not eaten much since she was locked up in the cell. She was particularly good at eating, inhaling everything like a bottomless pit. The delicious sweets gradually made her forget everything, and she narrowed her eyes happily.

Until everything is eaten!

Burping with satisfaction, she put on the two-cornered hat placed in the open space, looked around and said: "Katakuri, Perospero, you guys, go away, don't be an eyesore here, or...you guys Are you going to besiege me with him?"

"Mom." Katakuri said: "It was here five years ago that we besieged Ji Xing. Let's do it again. If we work together to win or defeat him, I hope you can hand over the management of the nations to us. Retreat. If we lose to him..."

"Mom, mom..." Big mom laughed: "Retire?! I will never retire!

Katakuri, you should know me. As long as you free your hands, you bastards who betrayed me will all die! And I don’t need help from you weaklings. Together, you are even better than Kaido! "

"But we are your sons and daughters."

"Humph - son? Daughter? The children locked up by my mother?! Hey, if you are not afraid of death, just stay here! My attack will not escape you!" Big mom grabbed both hands, Zeus and Brand New Prometheus appeared and was caught in her hand.

"Mom, are you finally out of trouble?!"

"Those damn traitors!"

"Wait - who is this guy?"

Big mom clenched her hands, her huge body carrying a mountain-like pressure, and looked down at Ji Xing: "The last defeat brought me a lot of reflection. In the past three years, I have not made any progress! If you still think It would be a big mistake to win against me easily! Mom——"

"Thunder Fire!" Fire Cloud and Thunder Cloud shot toward the center, and the dazzling light expanded.

Thunder and lightning mixed with flames, causing strange ripples under the surging overlord color, and the space was caressed by ripples!

In the majestic baptism of heat, the table in front of her and the empty plates on the table melted away in an instant. The terrifying temperature seemed to exceed that of volcanic lava!

Katakuri and others jumped back.

Ji Xing touched the handle of the knife.

The knife comes out! The fire is gone! People fly!

In an instant, the world changes!

Big Mom, who had a white belly and was bleeding, crashed into the wall with a crash. He sat in the ruins and stared at Ji Xing with a knife in his hand in astonishment.

"Mom, mom - are you still getting stronger?!" Then she laughed a few times, grabbed the two-cornered hat sword with her backhand, and consumed three years of her life at once. Her body expanded to the extreme, almost 20 years old. Huge rice!

At the same time, Ji Xing's feet suddenly turned into a tangle of syrup. Owen's high-heat fist, Katakuri's glutinous rice halberd, and Smoothie's Juicing Knife rushed towards Ji Xing from three directions!

"In the way! Get out of your way!" Big Mom's roar exploded with thunder.

Katakuri also responded with a domineering look: "Mom! We haven't listened to you for a long time, haven't we?! Nutuan stabs!"

Ji Xing's black sword flipped over, and the ring sword wind swept out. The four people flew away with blood in an instant, and Dafu's demon was directly killed.

In the middle of flying, Katakuri pulled off his scarf and grinned with a big mouth: "Is this the strongest in the world? Ji Xing, let our family... experience your strength again!"

"ah--"

Owen roared.

Smoothie howled.

Dafu grinds his belly to produce sparks.

Big Mom watched them in silence as they were injured and bleeding for the second time, and finally struck with the knife!

Click——

The violent shock wave tore the sweet castle into pieces, made the sky crack, caused the dark clouds to gather, and made a doomsday scene appear above Cake Island!

…

On the coast, the other Big Mom children who came to Cake Island evacuated the civilians and followed Katakuri's orders to stand by on the coast.

As soon as the magnificent shock wave erupted in the center of the island, they immediately felt it, and the subsequent increasingly obvious visions explained everything.

There's someone fighting at the castle!

Is mom really out of trouble? Can Katakuri-nii and the others lock up Mom again?

They gathered together, thinking about it but not daring to go. They waited nervously for half an hour before the shock and vibration in the center finally stopped.

"……finished?"

"Who won? We..."

A few of the stronger children hesitantly formed a team to go explore, leaving the others to wait for news.

At this time, the lion fur tribe Pokomus suddenly jumped out: "Everyone, wait a minute! The battle just now is not necessarily between mother and Katakuri! Before, before we found that the strongest man in the world, Holo, appeared on the cake Island!”

"……What?!"

"Holo?! The monster who defeated Mom and Kaido's team-up?!"

"Why didn't you tell me 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 floor of the cake island is almost collapsed.

Big Mom's body returned to normal size, and even lost a bit of weight. She lay on the ground with her hair disheveled, blood staining her body red, and her eyes looked at the sky in confusion, as if she felt something was missing.

Then something was put into his hand.

She raised her hand to grab it and put it in front of her eyes.

It was a photo of an old lady wearing a nun's uniform, holding a cigarette in her right hand, sitting sideways, looking at her with a smile.

A smile appeared on her equally old face.

"Sister, we are finally reunited."

After a moment of silence, she opened her mouth, swallowed the photo, opened her mouth again, and sang:

"Put Binx's wine~

Delivered to you~"

Suddenly someone in the ruins responded: "Like the sea breeze, you can do whatever you want~ ride the wind and waves~"

Then the third person: "On the other side of the sea~The sunset is also noisy~"

One person took a sentence, and then continued to sing the songs they were taught when they were young. Big mom's voice gradually became cheerful, and she saw the picture of her happiest time.

Gradually, her voice disappeared.

The other people also became intermittent, and there was obviously a choking sound.

Ji Xing walked to Katakuri, who closed his eyes and hummed and cried, and sat on a piece of gravel. Just like Katakuri, who was obviously resisting the imprisonment of Big mom, would cry at this time, Ji Xing's mood was also a little complicated and incomprehensible.

Behind him, a poison needle pierced his neck, but it bounced off without even breaking the skin. Then the 13-year-old chubby-faced girl jumped up and kicked, and was caught by Ji Xing and pressed on her legs.

"Damn it! Don't hurt Brother Katakuri... Hey, who is this?" Flampe, who had never seen Katakuri's big mouth under the scarf, even forgot that she was caught, and stared at Katakuri blankly.

The other brothers and sisters who rushed over from a distance saw Big Mom's body at first sight. They were horrified and froze in place!

"Mom... was..."

"That guy..."

Frightened, terrified, at a loss.

The blue-white-haired girl gritted her teeth and drew out her long sword, pointing it at Ji Xing: "Let go of Flampe! Get away from Brother Katakuri!"

Ji Xing looked at her, familiar arm armor and familiar long sword, familiar two-jointed arms.

"Mukulu, have two walnuts."

"..."

With a clang, the long sword fell to the ground.

On January 28, 1520 of the Haiyuan calendar, Charlotte Linlin, the most powerful female pirate in history and the Pirate Emperor, took her children to fight against the world's strongest man, Holo.

Undefeated, died!

Well...
