I reached the top of Pirates

Chapter 289, 288. An old woman pretending to be young!
"Gurgle—"

The old woman's head was hit hard, and her eyes bulged outwards. Then, under the control of weightlessness, Redstone flew into the air again.

At the same time, Mercer dashed in front of her and swung his three-meter-long greatsword upwards.

The sword, crackling with black and red electric arcs, once again left her with a deep, bone-revealing wound.

"Oooooooooo!"

A cry of pain escaped her lips, and her body was slashed backward with a series of thuds, like a mountain of flesh. Thick blood vessels filled the woman's eyes.
"You damn bastard, you'd better die."

He cursed as he swung his giant blade and charged at Moses, slashing at him.

"Identification"

Strength rating: A
Moses looked at her indifferently, stepped forward, and swung his greatsword.

cut!
Clang! Puff puff puff!
Four consecutive slashes were unleashed.

The first sword strike cleaved her blade, leaving her wide open.

The second, third, and fourth sword strikes left sufficiently deep cuts on her body.

Mercer completely suppressed her.

The older woman was beaten and forced to retreat.

Whether it's physical attributes, domineering presence, or abilities in all aspects.

Swing the sword, swing the sword, and swing the sword again.

Disbelief flashed in the old woman's eyes. How could this guy be so strong?

She was actually much stronger than that man.

With a clang, a sword sliced ​​through her longsword.

Mercer swung his sword downwards, slashing across her chest once more.

Her body's defensive capabilities, which were practically like an iron balloon, were completely ineffective at this moment.

With the support of Mercer's domineering aura, her extremely sharp cutting intent made her body feel like a thicker cowhide.

*Splash!* Another massive amount of blood splattered out.

"Ahhhh!"

He roared, a flicker of panic flashing in his eyes, but it quickly transformed into an intense ruthlessness.

With her left hand, she grabbed the flames on his head and quickly compressed them in her palm. Enveloped in a surge of domineering energy, the old woman aimed her right hand at Moses and roared:

"Fire from the sky".

Boom!
A spiraling pillar of fire, a hundred meters thick and crackling with black and red electric arcs, surged toward Mercer.

Seeing this, Mercer instantly gripped his sword with both hands and raised it, the dazzling black and red arcs of electricity wrapping around the blade and causing ripples to spread through the air around it.

They watched as the flames hurtled towards them.

Swing your sword and chop it down.

bass--

The black and red light blade burst forth in the blink of an eye, instantly slicing through the pillar of fire. The light flashed by, and the black and red light blade appeared in front of the old woman. Clang!

Using his dark arms crossed to block, his body was repeatedly pushed backward. Lightning crackled from his body, and in an instant, Mercer appeared directly in front of Big Mom.

He gripped the sword with both hands, turned sideways, and in the next second, thrust the sword out with an arc.

Click! Pfft!

After a slight resistance, the greatsword pierced through and penetrated her body.

The woman's eyes widened suddenly, and she roared, "You die too!"

Prometheus gripped it in front of him, it expanded rapidly, and then exploded with a deafening roar!

With a bloodcurdling scream, Prometheus exploded and died.

A crimson light flashed in the old woman's eyes as she activated the Soul-Soul Fruit at full power, causing her lifespan to be consumed rapidly. Her body suddenly aged even more, and her pink hair quickly turned gray.

At the same time, a terrifying aura emanated from her body.

Moses watched her struggle desperately.

The next instant, the cold dew transformed into lightning and pierced into her body, unleashing a terrifying, intense heat within her.

A strong smell of burning appeared.

Ah ah ah
With her scream, Mercer's figure flashed and appeared in front of her.

Crimson lightning pierced through her body, carrying an unparalleled will to suppress her Devil Fruit power.

next moment.

With an unparalleled crimson arc of electricity, his spiritual right hand pierced into her brain, grasping that unique frequency fluctuation.

Then it was pulled outwards.

Stealing the spirit.

With his right hand grasping a colorless, transparent spirit, Mercer pulled it outwards.

The woman's screams suddenly stopped.

His eyes bulged out.

At the same time, a fusion wave appeared in his left hand, slicing and spiritualizing, and a hand chop smoothly cut through the spiritual body that he had grabbed and pulled out.

Bang!
An invisible muffled sound was emitted.

The woman stopped moving.

His eyes became vacant.

Mercer looked at the half-spirit body in his hand, gripped it tightly with his right hand, and snapped!

The colorless light shattered.

At the same time, a section of the sword tip, crackling with lightning, pierced through the top of her head.

It then shot into the sky.

At that moment, an irregular crystal, the size of a goose egg and shimmering with a mysterious luster, precipitated from her body.

[Obtained 1 Grade A Soul Crystal]

At the same time, the gray mist spread out from his hand, enveloping the old woman's body, and the power of the Soul-Soul Fruit was devoured and seized.

Big Mom, one of the Four Emperors, was defeated and died.

Not far away, Charlotte Katakuri's eyes twitched violently.

A sense of emptiness arose in my heart, and an unavoidable sadness welled up inside me.

"Mom, take care."

Morgans stared in disbelief at the scene before him; Big Mom was finished just like that.

What was that just now? Did he grab a soul?

The battle between the Four Emperors ended so quickly?
Has it been half an hour?
But then came excitement.

ecstasy.

This is big news; it marks the end of the Great Sea Emperor.

Swish!
Runti appeared beside Messer, glanced at Messer obediently, and then looked at the old woman lying motionless on the ground.

"He's dead already?"

Runti blinked and looked at Mercer, "I don't think she's anything special, is she?"

Moses smiled faintly:

"He's nothing special to me, but he's a formidable opponent to you."

Runti nodded, her face full of agreement:

"Indeed, they really can't beat her now."

But even if they want to leave, she can't catch them, hehe.

The gray mist of Messer devoured and merged with Runti.

His figure flashed and disappeared.

Inside the treasure room of Cake Island.

Moses suddenly appeared.

Turning my head to look in one direction, I saw another red stone appear there.

Whoosh! The figure appeared in front of the red stone.

Merit plunder.

Merit Points +10000
The gray fog was swallowed up into the small world.

Moses glanced at the treasury, raised an eyebrow, and walked to a pile of treasure, causing a wave of energy to spread outwards.

A treasure chest flew out and landed in Moses's hand. He opened the chest.

A Devil Fruit appeared inside.

[Paramecia Type. Memory Fruit (A)]

The gray fog engulfed the small world.

Moses smiled as he looked at the wealth around him, then vanished in a flash.

Come to the outside world.

Seeing the old woman surrounded by Charlotte's children, and then seeing Moses emerge, Yamato ran over from a short distance away, his cheeks puffed out:

"Mercy? Where did you go just now?"

As the gray mist dissipated, Runti's figure appeared.

Looking at Yamato, Runti's lips curled up slightly:
"Then of course it's to do something secret between the two of us."

Yamato's face darkened, and he looked at Runti with displeasure:

"You want to get beaten up again, don't you? You think I won't beat your butt into eight pieces this time?"

Runti's face also darkened. If Yamato's entanglement and domineering aura grabbed her body, she would not be able to teleport away on her own.

That would get you beaten up.

This was discovered through constant playful banter and testing with Yamato.

"Mr. Mercer, you are really amazing. Lingling really messed up this time and almost lost her life."

Stussy came over and looked at Mercer in surprise.

Runti blinked. "Lingling? You and Auntie are very close? Are you good friends?"

As he spoke, he teleported between her and Messer, raising his hands in front of his chest as if to block.

"Are you here to avenge her? Did you come here to ambush Moses?"

Stussy's lips twitched. Who would care about that kind of fake sisterhood? It's just an act.

And you must be out of your mind to come and avenge her. Her own children don't even come, so why are you bothering with this?

She immediately spoke with a gentle smile:
"They would never do that. They're your person. Didn't you say you wanted them to work for you?"

Moses' lips curled into a slight smile as he said:

"You have malicious intent; so you've come here to cause me trouble."

Runti, go up and hit her.

The next moment, Runti appeared in front of her in a flash, and her sparkling diamond fist landed on Stussy's face.

With a loud thud, he was sent flying.

Flying in mid-air, her pretty face was burning hot, and Stussy's eyes were filled with confusion.

Available in the next second.

A gust of wind appeared behind her, and Runti suddenly delivered a whip kick that struck Stussy's pert buttocks.

Yeah!

A cry of pain rang out, and she was sent flying into the sky again. Then, Runti appeared repeatedly around her body, focusing her attacks on a single point with all her might.

Stusi's figure was controlled by Runti, who pressed down on him in mid-air.

Ten minutes later, Stusi, who had fainted after having his buttocks artificially augmented, appeared in front of her through Runti's collar.

An unavoidable glance.

His lips twitched, as if he had gone a little too far; at this moment, the little fairy's waist-to-hip ratio had become unusually unbalanced.

Runti looked away awkwardly and reached out to hand Stusi over.

"I didn't expect her to be so easily beaten."

Her right cheek was swollen like a bun. Mercer's lips twitched. Sure enough, no matter how beautiful a fairy is, a pig's head is still a pig's head.

I took out my camera and started snapping away.

Then the gray fog spread and engulfed everything.

Concept: Ultra-fast regeneration.

Conceptual support.

Stussy's waist-to-hip ratio recovered at a visible speed.

Strands of electricity appeared on her body, stimulating the magnetic field within her.

Soon, a soft moan rang out.

Stussy opened his eyes, looking around at his surroundings with a blank expression.

He got caught by that guy again.

I felt somewhat helpless.

By the way, how did I get arrested?

Just thought of this.

The memory that surfaced in my mind was the image of being pinned in mid-air and kicked by that brat.

Stussy was somewhat dazed, covering his face with his hands, as if he were too ashamed to show his face.

He quickly touched his pert buttocks.

I breathed a sigh of relief. Was it just a hallucination?
The gray fog was released, and Stussy was thrown out, sitting on the ground like a duck.

A pleated dress.

Just then, he saw Mercer hand him a photograph.

Stussy stared blankly, his lips twitching violently.

Is that me in the photo?
Moses looked at her and smiled:
"How's my photography skills? I've perfectly captured your exaggerated waist-to-hip ratio."

Stussy trembled; even with her strong will, she felt her heart about to explode. After a few seconds, she took a deep breath and sighed.
"A man with a perverse sense of humor."

Mercer laughed and said, "Your smile earlier was a bit fake, which made me a little uncomfortable."

Stussy sighed again and whispered, "He's just a clone, even his smile isn't his own, so it's normal for it to be a little fake, isn't it?"

Moses chuckled and spoke:
"Whatever makes you happy, but really?"

Sitting cross-legged in front of Stussy, breathing in unison, the concept of spiritualization enveloped her, becoming a spiritual entity.

Dominate her body.

Body shaping.

The body becomes youthful.

A moment later, a blonde toddler, about three years old and less than a meter tall, appeared before them.

Stussy stared blankly at his own appearance.

Looking down, the land was completely flat, and even her well-fitting dress had become loose and baggy.

"What did you do to me?" As her body shrank, even her voice became childish.

Seeing her angry glare, Mercer laughed and said, "Since you've been born with that adult size, then come and experience what it's like to grow up from a little devil."

"By the way, should I call you Dad? After all, I went through a lot of trouble to turn you into the person you are today."

Stussy's eye twitched. "Get out of here."

Moses stood up because Katakuri walked over and looked at him calmly.

"From now on, the entire kingdom will be yours."

Moses glanced at him and said indifferently:
"No thanks, it's boring here."

The next moment, he bent down, grabbed Stussy by the back of her collar, and lifted her up.

Just like Kureha did sixteen years ago, carrying herself around, all that's missing is a bottle of wine in her hand.

Stussy's little face scrunched up; this was her first time experiencing something like this, but she couldn't help but calm down.

Cold Dew flew out of his body and grew larger. The four of them sat on it and flew towards another island.

……

Two days later.

On the boundless sea,
Moses looked at a copy of the World Economic News in his hand.

Shocking! Thunder Emperor Appears at Older Women's Tea Party, Yonko Big Mom Dies!!!

Shocking! The Untold Story Between the Charlotte Family and the Thunder Emperor.

Shocking! The Road Poneglyphs are in the hands of the Thunder Emperor! Is a new Pirate King about to emerge on the high seas?

There are pictures and truth.

The first image shows the old woman lying motionless in front of Mercer.

The second image shows Katakuri standing behind Messe Messe with his brothers and sisters.

The third image is of Mercer stepping on the red stone as he enters the arena.

The sea, which had been silent for a year, began to boil again.

However, the major powers of the new world fell silent.

At the tea party, representatives from almost all the well-known underground forces came to witness this one-sided battle.

Everyone felt a suffocating pressure weighing on their hearts.

The old lady collapsed; the cake was so big that everyone wanted to come and take a bite.

However, the second image stunned all the hyenas.

Until they figure out what Moses really thinks, no one will set foot there.

Nothing else, my life is more important.

A blond head peered over familiarly, peering at the newspaper in Mercer's hand.

After a long while, Stussy breathed a sigh of relief, realizing that his childish appearance hadn't been captured on camera.

She was dressed in a black gothic little girl outfit.

With blonde hair and blue eyes, she has a delicate and adorable appearance.

He moved closer to Mercer, looked up at Mercer, and called out in a childish voice:
"Daddy. Xixi is hungry."

Moses chuckled softly:
"It seems you've completely adapted to your new role and are even enjoying it."

Moses looked at the exquisite gray-black ring on the ring finger of his left hand:
"I have the ability to modify memories; I can help you permanently alter your memories."

"How about it? This way you can have a completely new life. From now on, how about being my darling daughter?"

Upon hearing this, Stussy fell silent, a deep sense of inner turmoil visible in his eyes.

She believed that since Mercer had brought it up, he was sure he could deliver on it; it was a very appealing topic.

A few minutes later, he shook his head.

She chose to refuse.

He said bitterly, "If I alter my memories, forget the past, and start a completely new life, am I still Stusi?"

Mercer laughed and said, "Don't you think everything about you is a clone?"
Are those memories important?

Stussy fell silent. She suddenly realized that she was somewhat reluctant to let go of these terrible memories.

Why? Forget everything, start anew, and have Moses' protection.

In recent days, she discovered that Mercer was a fan of good looks, just like herself.

She believed that if she did that, she would definitely live a very happy life in the future.

There will be a true family member you can rely on.

However, that will be the life of the little girl Sisi, not the life of the clone Stusi.

She was scared.

Mercer passively sensed her thoughts at that moment.

Reaching out, he ruffled her hair and chuckled softly:

What is a human being?

Stussy moved himself into Mercer's lap and sat down, resting his head on Mercer's chest.

What is a human being?

"Human beings are a unity of matter and spirit."

"It is composed of both the physical body and the spiritual body. I won't go into the physical body, you know what I mean."

The spirit is mainly the self that evolves from consciousness and acquired experiences.

Together, they define the complexity and uniqueness of humankind.

Just as no two snowflakes or leaves in the world are exactly alike.

There is no such thing as a perfectly cloned human. As long as a clone possesses its own independent consciousness, it is a unique individual.

Stussy fell silent. Vegapunk had given her this explanation before, but in a more systematic and formulaic way.

Vegapunk is very intelligent; he is the most intelligent person in the world.

But he was just an ordinary person without any power.

And Moses is a monster.

It is a monster that I cannot describe.

She witnessed him tear out the old woman's soul and sever it.

Is that something humans can do?

It would be easy to kill the old lady.

He has become completely inhuman.

Therefore, his definition of humanity, and his definition of a unique being, is authoritative.

"Hehe! Daddy, are you trying to comfort me, or are you flirting with me?"

Mercer laughed and said, "I'm a fan of good looks."

"Also, you don't arouse my sexual interest right now."

Hearing this, Stussy, his face dark, said speechlessly:

"Then tell me, who gave me this childish look?"

Mercer grabbed her face with both hands, kneading and squeezing it repeatedly, and said with a chuckle:

"Now you are Xixi, my daughter, so you are not allowed to swear, or I will spank you."

Stussy fell silent, a genuine smile flashing in his eyes, and said in a cute, childlike voice:

"Daddy. I want to be lifted up high."

Hearing this, Runti looked at Stussy speechlessly:
"Old women pretending to be young are shameless."
