Chapter 231 Leaving Cake Island
Charlotte Lingling showed a satisfied smile on her face. "Since you kept your promise and let me get what I wanted, I will naturally bless their marriage. However, those Straw Hat guys have to wait until the cake is made to my satisfaction before I let them go."
Al doesn't care about Germa's technology. He knows that the only people in the world who can truly understand the bloodline factor are Judge and Vegapunk.
Even Miss Barkin, who had worked in their team, spent twenty years and only managed to create an intellectually deficient Edward Weeble.
After leaving Charlotte Linlin, Al took Judge back to the kitchen again.
El took out the wedding cake that Sanji and his friends had made with the remaining ingredients and handed it to Judge. "This is a wedding cake made by your son and daughter-in-law. As a father, it would be a shame if you had never tasted it."
Although Sanji was dissatisfied with the appearance of Judge, he could not refute what El said. After all, Judge gave Germa's technology to him.
Sanji seemed very surprised when he heard El mention that Judge was about to abdicate and Reiju would become the new head of the Vinsmoke family.
"What? Reiju will become the new clan leader?" he asked in surprise.
If the Vinsmoke family led by Judge has nothing to do with him, but if Reiju becomes the new clan leader, then it would be a little different.
If it weren't for Reiju's help, he would never have been able to escape from Germa and come to the East China Sea.
Although he refused to admit it in his heart, he was able to leave the Germa Kingdom partly because of Judge's tacit consent.
"That's right," Judge said slowly, "Sanji, Pudding, I wish you a happy wedding."
After saying this, he took the cake in front of him and left the place without looking back.
His back looked firm and slightly heavy, as if he was saying goodbye to his past self and welcoming a new beginning.
On the way back, Judge had already made an appointment with El that they would stay in Dressrosa for rest during the recent period of time.
After things here are over, Eru will discuss future plans with Reiju and make arrangements for the future of Germa.
Not long after Jiazhi left, with the efforts of all members, Chiffon finally pushed out the wedding cake.
It has an exquisite appearance, with each layer decorated in detail, dotted with colorful cream flowers and fresh fruits, exuding an enticing aroma.
Charlotte Lingling, who got the news, came here with a happy look on her face.
Her arrival caused the entire room to fall silent instantly, and everyone held their breath, waiting for her reaction.
Charlotte Lingling's eyes were shining with excitement. She walked quickly to the cake and couldn't wait to pick up a piece of cake and take a bite. The sweet taste spread in her mouth instantly.
She closed her eyes, savored the delicious taste, with an intoxicated expression on her face.
Seeing their mother so happy, Brin and Chiffon exchanged happy glances with each other, their hearts filled with a sense of accomplishment.
"It looks like we are safe." Usopp said softly to Chopper beside him, with a hint of relief in his voice.
Al said at the side: "Aunt, this cake should make you satisfied, right? If there is no problem, then I will take Luffy and the others away."
Charlotte Lingling took big bites of the cake and praised it as she ate, "This is the best cake I have ever eaten."
Her face was filled with a satisfied smile and she was completely immersed in the world of food.
Everyone was waiting for her next words, but they found that she was so absorbed in eating that she paid no attention to anyone around her.
"It seems like she really likes this cake." Nami said with a low laugh, her tone full of relief.
However, Al did not think so. He knew that people like Charlotte Lingling could not be judged by common sense.
Al was worried that if he didn't fulfill his promise clearly when she was happiest, things might change after she finished eating.
So, he no longer waited for Charlotte Linlin's reply, and directly signaled Luffy and others to prepare to leave.
"Luffy, your business is over, let's go now." El's voice was low and decisive, and there was a hint of urgency in his eyes.
Seeing El's actions, Luffy was stunned at first, but he quickly came to his senses and quickly prepared to evacuate.
When Pudding was about to leave with Sanji, just as Al had expected, Charlotte Linlin changed her mind.
She spoke to keep Brin: "Little Brin, my lovely daughter, you and your groom cannot leave here. I want you to make such delicious cakes for me every day."
This sudden change made the atmosphere tense in an instant.
Pudding's face turned pale, she knew that if Sanji was left behind, he would never have the chance to leave.
"Mom, you've already agreed to let Sanji and the others leave." Pudding said, although there was a slight tremor in her voice.
Charlotte Lingling's expression turned from happy to gloomy. "Breen, you know my temper. What I say is never a request. You stay here. It's better for everyone."
Al walked in front of everyone and said to Charlotte Lingling: "Auntie, we have completed the cake as agreed, and you have tasted its deliciousness. Now, it's time to keep your promise."
Charlotte Lingling narrowed her eyes and looked at Al coldly, "I have already promised you to release the Straw Hats. Now my daughter herself does not want to leave her mother and plans to stay in Wan Guo and live with us."
Then she turned to look at Brin and said, "Right? Little Brin?"
At this time, Sanji stood beside Pudding, held her hand, and said firmly: "Pudding has the right to choose her own life. We will not stay here and become your prisoners."
However, Charlotte Linlin's face suddenly turned gloomy. She rudely interrupted Sanji's words, her voice full of unquestionable majesty: "You are marrying into our Charlotte family. You cannot leave without my permission, and your future children can only have the surname Charlotte."
Her tone was cold and hard, and the atmosphere in the whole room suddenly became tense.
Luffy stood up angrily, his eyes flashing with determination and resolve, "Mom, don't even think about letting Sanji stay. I am their captain."
Charlotte Linlin sneered, with a hint of contempt in her eyes, "Straw Hat Boy, pirates are not a game of house. If you want to take people away from me, ask your grandfather to come."
At this time, everyone from the Charlotte family quickly gathered around, their eyes full of hostility and vigilance, and a battle was about to break out.
Al laughed softly at this time, "It seems that this battle is unavoidable."
"El, to be a pirate you must have the courage of a pirate. You are much worse than Kaido if you don't even dare to fight." Charlotte Linlin said as she continued to eat the cake in big mouthfuls. Her movements did not stop at all because of the words.
Soon, she ate most of the cake, then threw the rest of the cake back and said to Perospes, "Perospes, save the cake."
Perospes immediately used the ability of the fruit to wrap the entire cake with candy, and then quickly placed it in Mondor's book world for safekeeping, ensuring that the cake would not be destroyed in the subsequent battle.
Then, Charlotte Lingling took off her Napoleon hat and transformed it into a long sword. Her eyes became sharp and she said to the people in front of her: "Either you stay..."
Before he finished speaking, Al immediately used Dragon Roar. The huge roar immediately drowned out Charlotte Lingling's soul spell, and the whole room seemed to be shaken by this powerful force.
Then, without hesitation, El used the ultimate move of the domineering fist and bone, Galaxy Impact.
A powerful energy surrounded Al's right hand and rushed towards Charlotte Lingling at an extremely fast speed, hitting her face with destructive force.
Charlotte Lingling immediately swung her long knife towards Al's fist.
With a deafening roar, Al's fist slammed heavily on the long sword, and a powerful impact force exploded instantly.
The entire house was destroyed in an instant, and the surrounding ground was torn apart by the shock wave, forming a huge crater.
El's Domination Fist Bone Secret Technique Galaxy Impact not only impacted Charlotte Linlin, but also caused serious harm to her children standing behind her.
They fell to the ground one after another, seriously injured, groaning in pain.
Only those powerful ministers were able to withstand the power of Al's punch.
Especially Katakuri, who used his ability to predict the future to release a sticky barrier in advance to absorb a lot of the impact force, thus saving several people behind him from harm.
However, Al and his companions did not give each other a chance to breathe.
Nami and her group immediately flew forward, ready to capture Charlotte Brulee and Charlotte Mondor, the two people with dangerous abilities that El had mentioned before, first.
The Straw Hat Pirates reacted quickly and flew into the battle.
Faced with the joint offensive of El and the Straw Hat Pirates, the ministers of the Charlotte family also began to fight back with all their might.
Robin quickly used his ability, and his arms stretched out from all parts of Brulee's body, tightly wrapping around her entire body and restricting her movements.
Katakuri saw that his sister was in danger and hurried forward to help, but was blocked by Nojiko's barrier.
Nokigo's barrier was so strong that Katakuri found it difficult to break through it.
On the other side, El used the gathered feng shui, fire and electricity, superimposed the two-color domineering entanglement, as well as the abilities of the Zhenzhen and Dark Dark Fruits, to perform the Fist Bone Impact·Nine Palace Fist.
After he knocked Charlotte Lingling away with a punch, he quickly changed the gesture of his left hand, using the dragon's ability to absorb water, and immediately sucked Garlot Mondor in the distance into his hand.
"Auntie, I heard that your island has preserved a lot of rare animals. If you don't let them go, you will have to say goodbye to these animals." Al's voice was full of threats.
Seeing Mondor, who possessed the power of Books, being captured, and with El's warning, Charlotte Linlin finally came to her senses.
"Do you think you can force me like this?" Charlotte Lingling's voice was low and full of anger. "If you dare to hurt my son, I swear I will not let you leave this island."
Her gaze shifted from the captured Mondor to El, then to the members of the Straw Hat Pirates, and finally stopped on Pudding and Sanji.
"I'm not trying to fight you," Al said calmly, "If you want to eat cake, you can make it when your chef is ready. You don't need Sanji and the others. But if something happens to Mondor, all your treasures over the years will be destroyed."
Al still didn't want to fight Charlotte Linlin. His ultimate strength was to face Im, and if he exposed his strength in advance, it would do more harm than good to him.
Therefore, he chose to use reason and strategy to solve the current dilemma instead of relying solely on force.
At this time, Charlotte Lingling's attitude had softened somewhat, and a hint of hesitation flashed in her eyes.
She realized that if she continued to remain in the stalemate, she would not only lose her daughter's trust, but might also face even greater losses.
Charlotte Lingling snorted but did not vent her anger. "Go away and don't show up in my sight again. If I see you again, I will definitely take your lives."
Although her tone was still firm, there was a hint of helplessness and compromise in it.
Al breathed a sigh of relief, knowing that the crisis had been temporarily resolved.
"You go first, I'll come find you later."
After hearing Al's arrangement, everyone stepped back and quickly left the place.
Pudding and Sanji also held each other's hands tightly and evacuated with the team.
Seeing his companions and Luffy moving away, Al slowly released his control of Mondor and gently pushed him forward.
After being released, Mondor quickly retreated back into the protective circle of his family members. His face was pale, and it was obvious that he was still frightened by what he had just experienced.
Katakuri also put away his attacking stance and looked at El with complicated eyes. There was both vigilance and some thinking in his eyes.
As the members gradually walked away, Al turned and left.
Only members of the Charlotte family were left standing in the ruins, and they began to treat the injured members.
And Charlotte Lingling fell into deep thought.
Soon, Al caught up with his companions who had just left, and they headed towards the Orange Windmill together.
Luffy ran happily while thanking El: "El, thank you so much this time. Without you, our entire pirate group might have been wiped out."
El smiled slightly and responded: "Luffy, as the captain, you still need to strengthen your strength, otherwise how can you protect your partners."
Luffy smiled sheepishly, "I will, I promise this is the last time, next time even if it's the Four Emperors, I will definitely beat them down."
Looking at Luffy's bold words, El smiled and continued to move forward with everyone.
At this time, Sanji and Pudding were holding hands and running in the middle of the team. Pudding said to El with gratitude: "Thank you, Captain El. If it weren't for you, Sanji and I might never be truly free."
Chapter 232 Germa's Future
Hearing Brin's thanks, Al waved his hand gently and said, "Just consider it as my wedding gift to you."
His tone was relaxed and warm, as if all this was a matter of course.
Then, Al asked Luffy: "Luffy, where are you going next?"
Luffy thought about it and showed his signature smile, "I don't know either. Let's see where the navigation compass points, right, Usopp?"
Usopp nodded and agreed: "Yes, we can always find interesting places anyway."
After thinking for a moment, Al said, "If that's the case, then do me a favor. We have a friend from the Fur Tribe on our ship. Can you please help send it back to the Fur Tribe's territory?"
Luffy answered without hesitation, "Of course! We've never been to the Fur Land before!"
"Then I'll trouble you."
Because of the Germa Kingdom, El plans to go to Dressrosa with Judge to settle the affairs of the Vinsmoke family first, and then plan to go to Wano Country.
As for whether Luffy will go to Wano Country, he doesn't know. He leaves it all to fate and see if Luffy will really be guided by fate.
Soon, they arrived at the seaside, where the Orange Windmill was quietly docked.
Sensing someone approaching, Pedro immediately became alert, scanning the surroundings with sharp eyes.
He quickly stood up from the deck, put his hands on the weapon at his waist, leaned forward slightly, ready to deal with any possible danger at any time.
As the leader of the Zou Night Kingdom's Knights Group, he is always highly alert at night, especially in a dangerous environment like Cake Island, where any slight movement could mean a potential threat.
When Al and others appeared in his sight, Pedro's tense nerves finally relaxed.
"So it's you!" Pedro breathed a sigh of relief, with a hint of relief in his tone, "I thought you were the enemy."
