Chapter 202: Queen Of All Races
Feeling the force from the opponent’s palm growing stronger, Aoxi, who was pinned firmly to the ground, no longer had the mind to think about what Big Mom’s words really meant.
She now felt unprecedented pressure… the opponent’s Observation Haki was stronger than her own, even stronger than Kaido’s.
In her foreseen future, she couldn’t see the opponent’s actions at all, yet the opponent could precisely pinpoint her location and launch merciless attacks.
Fast! Accurate! Ruthless!
This was a sense of oppression completely absent from her battles with Kaido, one that pressed step by step without allowing the slightest breath.
……
“Tch! So noisy, Pink Big Mom!”
Sensing the crisis, Aoxi put away her last trace of contempt and began to go all out.
Crack!
Hugging both hands around the arm that Big Mom was using to press her down, Aoxi’s body exploded with lightning, golden lightning engulfing her entirely.
“Hm?”
Sensing what the opponent wanted to do with Observation Haki, Big Mom tried to increase her force, but Aoxi’s actions were faster.
Dazzling lightning concentrated in an instant on the pair of bright red wings behind Aoxi, and then her hands suddenly exerted force at the same time, winning her a momentary breath.
The thunder wings flapped, and the thick earth behind her was like thin mist under the wings that were now too bright to look at directly, unable to hinder them in the slightest.
At this moment, Aoxi was like flying in a world where heaven and earth were inverted.
Whoosh!
Thunderbolt suddenly appeared, lightning flash!
In just an instant, Aoxi successfully broke free from Big Mom’s suppression and appeared a hundred meters away.
“Impressive speed, well done, brat.”
Shaking off the dust from her left hand, Big Mom put her hands on her hips, shouldered Napoleon, and maintained her relaxed posture.
In contrast, Aoxi, who had gone all out to escape the demon’s claws, looked somewhat disheveled now.
“Huff~ huff~”
“Weird, why does the opponent seem like a completely different person all of a sudden?”
“Was Pink Big Mom this strong just now?”
In just a few moves, she had been completely suppressed, and Aoxi felt the opponent seemed even stronger than Kaido.
“Brat, your fighting style looks a lot like that kid Kaido’s. He must be the one who usually teaches you how to fight, right?”
“Mamamama~ Mamamama~”
“Who would’ve thought that the green kid from back then has now reached an age where he can teach others.”
As Big Mom spoke with reminiscence in her eyes, she recalled the scene on Rocks’ ship where she personally taught Kaido those Giant Tribe moves.
“Now then~ let me see what kind of value you have, the one he’s willing to invest so much mind in to help grow.”
Big Mom lowered her hand from her hip and pointed Napoleon’s blade at Aoxi opposite her.
“Just so you know, I’m stronger than that kid Kaido!”
Boom!
A violent and unmatched Conqueror’s Haki burst from Big Mom’s body, black-red lightning flickering endlessly around her.
The surrounding atmosphere trembled due to her momentum alone, and heaven and earth roared silently in coordination with the queen of All Races.
A hundred meters away, Aoxi’s long hair was blown wildly behind her head.
Only when facing this Haki head-on did she truly sense the terrifying nature of this detestable woman.
Strong!
Very strong!
Stronger than Kaido!
“Conqueror’s Haki infusion?”
Looking at the violent energy wrapped around the long sword opposite her, Aoxi blurted out the name of this top-tier technique.
“Hm? You actually know about this?”
Now it was Big Mom’s turn to be surprised; she knew clearly that even Kaido half a year ago hadn’t fully mastered this highest-level technique.
“Yeah, I know.”
Unlike her own authority, red lightning of the same nature as Big Mom’s flickered between Aoxi’s arms as she spoke.
?!
“Mamamama~ Mamamama~”
“No wonder, no wonder Kaido made that choice.”
Big Mom widened her eyes and began to truly take the red-haired brat in front of her seriously for the first time.
“Hey, Aoxi, right?”
“Want to come to old lady’s side?”
Unexpectedly, Big Mom suddenly started inviting Aoxi.
“?”
“Huh?”
Now it was Aoxi’s turn to widen her eyes; wasn’t her attitude just now clear enough?
“Pink Big Mom, didn’t I say I hate you?”
“Or are you too old and have amnesia?”
“Mamamama~ Mamamama~”
“Plenty of people hate old lady: World Government, Navy, and all those other pirates… you’re not the only one.”
“Even among the residents in my ‘Whole Cake Island’, not everyone truly loves and admires me from the heart.”
During the establishment of Whole Cake Island, she personally executed numerous resisters and residents who regretted and wanted to leave.
For those who coveted the comfortable environment of ‘Whole Cake Island’ but were unwilling to give up their lifespan, Big Mom was always merciless.
Big Mom was like a mother with extreme control issues, sheltering her children with immense power while absolutely not allowing them to do anything outside her permission.
“Old lady doesn’t care if they like me, as long as they obey me obediently, old lady won’t do anything to them.”
“After all, the true ‘Whole Cake Island’ won’t and shouldn’t reject anyone!”
Big Mom looked at the surroundings in the distance, where the Whole Cake Island residents responsible for the ceremony reception and performances were now watching her side with varied expressions.
Among these people were long-arm tribe, long-leg tribe, Fish-Man tribe… aside from a few special races, basically all could be seen on Big Mom’s territory.
This was a nation that truly accommodated ‘All Races’!
It was also the queen of the sea, the future Sea Emperor’s magnanimity.
This vast sea never lacked true powerhouses, those with ambition and dreams were as numerous as carp crossing the river, but in the future, only a few would truly seize the ‘Sea Emperor’ throne.
These standout individuals—their strength, ambition, vision, magnanimity… were beyond what ordinary people could reach.
This was what Kaido wanted to show Aoxi: the attitude toward the world held by those at the pinnacle of this era.
……
Crack—!
This time it was Aoxi’s turn to attack first, no fancy moves—just Conqueror’s Haki preliminarily mastered and wrapped around her fist, then swung with full force.
This simple action contained power far surpassing any of her previous moves!
“Come on!”
Big Mom didn’t swing Napoleon again either, but met Aoxi head-on with her left fist similarly wrapped in Conqueror’s Haki!
Clang!
Boom!
Rumble—!
Their fists collided across the air, the impact wave capable of blowing everything away plowing the already ruined earth anew without dead angles!
……
“Whoa, whoa whoa! Help!”
“Quick, save me!”
……
“Buggy, Shanks! Quick, hide behind me!”
“Y-yes!” *2
……
“Morgans! Morgans!”
“Don’t worry about me, protect my Recording Den Den Mushi!”
……
“Mama~ Mama~”
“Truly surprising, brat.”
“But unfortunately, you’re still too green right now!”
At this time, Big Mom was 37 years old, about to enter her peak period. While Kaido was only 28, still at a relatively green age in Pirate King.
At this time, Big Mom was undoubtedly stronger than Kaido.
