Chapter 368 What are you going to do to my family?!
Totland, Charlotte Island.
Dark clouds loomed over the island, and a strong wind whipped the scarf around Katakuri's neck.
"The Homies in the southwest haven't sent a message for thirty minutes."
"The same goes for the Homies in the northern sky."
Beside him, Perospero and Smoothie were reporting the situation with serious expressions.
"Um."
Katakuri nodded silently: "Evacuation and martial law?"
"The highest level of evacuation order has been issued. Everyone has previous experience and is now very obedient to commands."
"Martial law has been declared, and watchtowers have been erected in the surrounding waters... But Katakuri... are you sure we're not planning to evacuate the island?"
Perospero reported this, but there was some hesitation in his eyes.
As he spoke, he looked around.
Just as mentioned before, Charlotte Island is a huge island formed by the remnants of the Big Mom Pirates forcibly connecting the core islands of Totto Land using Katakuri's "Mochi Mochi Fruit".
At this moment, the Big Mom Pirates' flag and towering watchtowers have been erected in all directions on this huge island.
From the watchtower, one can see the members of the Charlotte family standing ready for battle.
Clearly, they had long been prepared for war.
"This is Totland."
Katakuri calmly stated, "It was Mother who built this home for us—if someone retreats before the battle even with outside help, then they don't deserve to be a pirate!"
"But Katakuri-nii, we should at least try to intercept them outside the island... Although the Twelve Constellations promised to help us, it wouldn't be good if they broke their promise and a battle broke out on the main island."
"That's Kaido of the Beasts, after all," a guy on par with Mom. "7"
Beside Katakuri, Smoothie frowned deeply.
Unlike Perospero, she did not hesitate to choose to fight.
However, she believed that they should not abandon the outer seas directly, but rather ensure that the fighting did not take place on the island itself.
Upon hearing this, Katakuri glanced at Smoothie.
"The twelve zodiac signs will not fail to keep their promise."
He calmly gave an almost absolute answer: "She will not break her promise."
Upon hearing this, both Perospero and Smoothie were taken aback.
After that, they fell silent.
They all knew very well who the person Katakuri was referring to was.
If it were her, she certainly wouldn't break her promise to them.
And it was precisely at this point in the conversation...

""
Katakuri seemed to sense something and instantly raised his head.
His pupils shrank in an instant, and in his eyes, the Observation Haki that transcended limits allowed him to almost see the future and feel an extremely clear sense of...destruction!
"Smoothie! Perospero!"
He let out a low growl.
Smoothie and Perospero looked up blankly.
Just moments later, they heard the deafening roar.
"roar!"
That was the sound of a dragon's roar.
What followed was a red light shining from the dark, cloud-covered sky above the night.
It was a burst of intense fire—like a giant meteor falling from the sky, or a sun appearing out of nowhere in the darkness—that instantly pierced through several kilometers and hurtled toward Charlotte Island.
At the end of the firelight that illuminated the night, one could almost see the faint sound of a giant dragon swirling its body, with numerous pirate ships below it.
"It's Kaido's heat breath!"
Upon seeing the fierce attack, Smoothie immediately said in a deep voice—as fellow members of the Four Emperors' pirate crew, they had fought against the Beasts more than once in the past, and had naturally witnessed Kaido's terrifying heat breath that could destroy a mountain with a single strike.
Even so, the three showed no sign of backing down.
At that moment, the three of them moved almost simultaneously.
"Peerless Donut - Giant Fist!"
Katakuri leaped into the air, his right hand transforming into a sticky rice that stretched out continuously, eventually becoming a giant fist as large as a giant.
"Flowing Water Cutter - 100% Extraction Power!"
Smoothie took the giant sword from behind her, raised her hand to drink a beverage that had been prepared beforehand, and her body also transformed into the size of a giant, suddenly swinging out the long sword in her hand.
"Candy Wall - Giant Golem!"
The icing in Perospero's hand spread out, transforming in an instant into a giant candy golem, which also blocked the way for "Heat Breath".
The next moment...
"boom!"
Kaido's heat breath clashed with the attacks used by the three on the sea off Charlotte Island.
A massive shockwave instantly surged across the entire sea surface, centered on the point of impact, creating enormous waves.
The seawater evaporated out of thin air, turning into a thick mist, which was then dispersed by the violent impact.
After all the smoke and dust cleared, everyone saw the giant fist formed from glutinous rice, the slashes formed from flowing water, and the giant formed from sugar frosting, all of which were now riddled with wounds.
All three bore gruesome penetrating wounds and scorched, pitch-black voids.
"Hahaha..."
"He actually succeeded with a single blow..."
After witnessing this scene, Perospero and Smoothie were already panting heavily. That attack was a move they could only unleash after exerting all their strength.
While Katakuri, standing to the side, did not yet appear exhausted, his expression was equally grave.
"Just like before... the same as Mom, monstrous power."
His eyes were sharp—even though he had never relaxed his training during this time, he had to admit that... the gap between him and the Four Emperors was still very large!
"Well, at least the first attack was blocked... huh!?"
He muttered this to himself, but before he could even catch his breath, his expression suddenly changed drastically.
Because of his Observation Haki, which allows him to foresee the future, he has already seen what is about to happen.
"Wow... Lingling's kids—they're quite capable, much less troublesome than my stupid son."
At that moment, the ferocious vertical pupils of the dragon soaring in the sky were fixed on the distant island.
"But unfortunately—it's 'war' now."
"Forces not under my command" are things that should be destroyed in war!
With that roar, scorching flames spewed from his mouth once more.
besides...
"Buzz!"
From his left arm, within the clearly visible contract mark, a dark light flickered.
Even the scorching crimson flames in his mouth transformed into almost pitch-black black flames in the next moment.
"Abyssal Breath!"
Without even pausing, he opened his mouth and exhaled another breath of hot air.
This time, the power contained within the burning black flames far surpassed that of the last time.
The dark clouds were instantly torn apart by the deeper darkness, and a huge hole appeared out of nowhere in the sea.
Under these circumstances, Katakuri and his two companions looked increasingly grim.
Perospero and Smoothie suppressed their exhaustion and forcefully activated their abilities once more—the giant formed from frosting and the slash reappeared, and the giant fist made of glutinous rice smashed into the heat breath again.
but...
"Boom!"
This time, the creations of the three main combatants of the Charlotte family were destroyed in an instant. The heat breath pierced through the tofu with ease, shattering the three's abilities.
Then... the immense heat continued its relentless march towards Charlotte Island!
"Bang!"
The next moment, a deafening explosion and a huge cloud of smoke rose up, engulfing the entire Charlotte Island in the massive smoke and tremors.
"The heat breath hit!"
"As expected of Governor Kaido!"
"Completely overwhelming power—without Big Mom, Totto Land is utterly vulnerable before Governor Kaido!"
The numerous Beast Fleet behind Kaido also cheered.
"Woo-lo-lo-lo-lo!"
Kaido also opened his mouth and let out a huge laugh.
"Not bad, this power... I'm very satisfied!"
He gripped his left claw, feeling the surging power within his body.
Then...
"Go, my men!"
With a sweep of his tail, towering waves surged forth. He gazed at the dust-filled Charlotte Island: "Land on the island—go and claim 'victory' in this war for me!"
"Ooh ooh ooh ooh!" *N
"Charge! Treasure, woman!"
"The desserts in Totland are absolutely amazing! I'm going to capture a beautiful pastry chef and take her home!"
"Hey, if you have any Devil Fruits, could you spare one for me?"
"Who would give it to you!"
Amidst deafening cheers, the fleet below hoisted its sails and accelerated, with the fastest batch quickly passing Kaido and heading towards Charlotte Island.
But, just a moment later.
"Um?
"6
Kaido's brow furrowed suddenly; he sensed something amiss.
The dragon, which had been soaring freely, suddenly stopped, its vertical pupils fixed on Charlotte Island shrouded in smoke and dust.
As the smoke and dust gradually dissipated, the shape of something enormous that shrouded the island was beginning to emerge.
Or to be more precise—the object itself was translucent, but its shape was made particularly noticeable by the surrounding smoke and dust.
It was a barrier shaped like a bear's paw.
Countless air molecules, compressed to their absolute limit, formed an incredibly hard barrier.
Meanwhile, above that barrier...
Holding a Bible, the tall man slowly stretched out his hands—incidentally, he was also wearing a sea monster mask, but it was so small that it couldn't cover his face at all.
Of course, his well-known abilities cannot be concealed either.
The Bear Barrier
At this moment, Charlotte Island, protected by that barrier, was completely unharmed.
That was it...
"The twelve constellations, Di Tu Hao."
Or rather...
"It's...it's the former Shichibukai, Bartholomew Kuma!"
"How did he end up here!?"
"That mask...it looks like...it looks like..."
"Are you an idiot? I've heard before that Bartholomew Kuma seems to have joined the Twelve Constellations, and the death of the Five Elders, Satan, seems to be related to him!"
"Stop, adjust course, and then coordinate with Governor Kaido to open fire... Hey, what's going on? Why is the ship out of control!"
'
"The ship is rising, what... feeding... my body... I can't move... anymore!"
Upon seeing the bear appear, the Beasts Pirates members at the forefront were initially shocked—anyone with a bit of knowledge would naturally recognize the bear's identity, so they instinctively wanted to wait for Kaido's next order before acting together.
But they soon discovered that they couldn't do it.
"At this time, huge anomalies began to appear in the waters surrounding Charlotte Island."
The once turbulent seawater began to calm down inexplicably, as if it had been pressed down and sunken by some kind of pressure.
Their bodies were also pressed directly onto the deck by the sudden, immense pressure, making it difficult for most ordinary members to even move.
Conversely, their ships began to rise distinctly upwards.
"That is..."
At this moment, the group Kaido brought with him was even stronger, so much so that the Shinpushi (real fighters) on the ship, who were still able to move slightly, could see a figure floating in the distant sky.
He was a burly man wielding a katana and wearing wooden clogs.
He stood on a flying rock, and his face was also adorned with a sea monster mask.
"The twelve constellations, the Tail Fire Tiger."
He said in a low voice, "I have come here on the orders of the stars to stop this war."
As he finished speaking, he gently lowered the katana in his hand.
【Gravity Blade - Cluster】
then...
"boom!"
The Beasts Pirates' ships at the forefront suddenly plummeted downwards.
"what!"
"Boom!"
"Governor Kaido, save us!"
Countless members of the Beastmen didn't even have time to scream before they were suddenly plunged into the deep sea. Even the real fighters or some Beastmen members with flying abilities managed to leap off the ship, but under the immense gravity, they also plummeted into the sea.
This scene caused the expressions of some other pirate ships behind them, who had originally intended to launch an attack, to change drastically, and they immediately stopped their advance.
"The Twelve Zodiac Signs..."
Upon seeing this, Kaido's vertical pupils also revealed a sharp glint.
"I see, so Lingling's children are already with you..."
He seemed to want to say something.
But he only got halfway through his sentence.
"Boom!"
He was startled to hear a thunderous sound coming from above.
And its explosive power and roar, no less powerful than thunder.
"Kaido!"
That was a voice that was both very familiar and very unfamiliar to him.
Kaido raised his head almost instinctively.
Then he saw the figure wearing a long purple dress, a captain's hat, and holding a long sword.
She treads upon thunderclouds and flames, flying down from the sky!
"Sizzle!"
Crimson and black lightning crackled around her, and her appearance was nothing like the frail old woman she once was. On the contrary, her body was as beautiful and strong as when she was young.
And her eyes did not seem to reflect the violent and ignorant nature of the "Four Emperors" as known to the world.
Her eyes were clear and resolute, innocent like a child's, but the moment she saw Kaido, they were filled with intense...rage!
"What are you going to do to my family?!"
"Lingling!?"
Upon seeing Linlin, Kaido was so shocked that he couldn't speak, his eyes almost popping out of their sockets.
But Charlotte Linlin wouldn't give him time to react.
"The Spear of Elbaf - Mighty Nation!"
Linlin swung her long sword down, and the powerful slash that shook the world brought Kaido's enormous dragon body down from the sky!
