Mondor ripped off his gas mask and rushed over.

After this period of time, they and others used their abilities to dispel the poisonous fog that had been hanging over the cake castle.

"Ah, I'm alright, cough cough!!"

Katakuri coughed as he withdrew the rice strips that had been wrapped around Charlotte Linlin and pulled her out.

"Brother Perospero, and are Owen and Dafu alright?!"

Katakuri asked as he wiped the blood splattering from inside his scarf.

His own regenerative ability is extremely strong, and the injury he suffered in his previous battle with Zoro was not fatal.

Within the mirrored space, after being given a simple treatment and bandage by Brulee, his body began to heal his injuries at an astonishing speed.

"Perospero and the others also suffered quite serious injuries and have been taken away by the medical team for treatment."

Galette, standing beside him, also spoke in a low voice.

In a suffocating vacuum environment, the body is essentially defenseless to the extreme.

Therefore, after taking a direct hit from the Straw Hat Pirates' powerful attacks...

The extent of their physical injuries is unimaginable.

"The Straw Hat Pirates..."

The atmosphere in the room became even more oppressive at the mere thought of the pirate crew's name.

[Thank you so much to '幻星X' for the generous donation of 588 points!! Thank you!!!]

518 suffered a crushing defeat!! The prop master, without using any props... was furious!!

None of the Charlotte family members present had ever imagined this.

They were actually forced into this situation by a mere pirate crew that had been around for less than a year.

This pirate crew... is something else!!

Even though they felt incredibly aggrieved, they had no choice but to admit it.

This time, they suffered a crushing defeat!

"If it weren't for that bastard Caesar helping to release the poison gas, and that traitor Pokoms leading those people here as a guide—..."

Cream Minister Opera was there, fuming:

"Otherwise, our Charlotte family wouldn't have suffered such a humiliating and miserable defeat!!"

"If you lose, you lose. There's nothing to complain about."

Katakuri, on the other hand, remained relatively calm.

Moreover, given his level and perspective, he was able to learn this through his observation of the Straw Hat Pirates.

This time, their defeat was truly deserved.

"【Pirate Hunter】, 【Surgeon of Death】, 【Black Leg】..."

These combatants all left a deep impression on Katakuri, especially the "Pirate Hunter" who fought against him.

"If it really comes down to a fight to the very end without any scruples, I can't be sure that I'll be the one to win in the end..."

He stood there silently, reviewing his previous battle with Zoro.

High-level Armament Haki, including techniques for projecting and destroying internally, as well as high-level Observation Haki that allows for foresight.

In terms of sheer domineering presence, he is at a disadvantage.

I am already forty-six years old and in my prime, but the other party is only about twenty years old and has a lot of room for improvement, right?

He truly is an absolute monster...

Katakuri, who has always been called a monster by others, also gave this assessment to Zoro at this moment.

After firmly memorizing Zoro's name, he thought of another direction.

"That prop master, who didn't lift a finger but merely used a photograph to put my mother into a coma..."

Katakuri pondered for a moment, then, seeing Opera and Montor standing there increasingly indignant, he calmly spoke:

"Don't forget, [Props Maker] Link has never shown any sign of making a move."

"Leaving aside his powerful Logia-type Devil Fruit ability, just look at the tools he used during the Marineford War that nearly drove people to despair..."

Katakuri glanced at his younger siblings around him.

"During this battle with us, the opponent didn't make any moves, didn't use any items at all~~~"

"You should know what this means."

After Katakuri finished speaking, the room fell silent instantly.

The prop master did not use any props...

These seemingly strange, even inexplicable, words, upon reaching the ears of these Charlotte family executives, suddenly brought to mind a fact.

They couldn't even force out all the famous props in the hands of the prop master?!

Moreover, the other party didn't make a move at all; such a stance and behavior...

"Do they completely disregard us?!"

Opera whispered there.

"So you're saying that you consider yourself too powerful and are prepared to cover your losses, so you disdain to lay a hand on us?"

Montor added a comment.

"Of course, we can't rule out the possibility that they have strong confidence and believe that those [pirate hunters] and the like are enough to deal with us..."

Galette's expression gradually turned somewhat unpleasant.

They were only focused on the result, neglecting the other party's presence and abilities.

"So in either case..."

Katakuri calmly said, "The fact that the [Item Master] didn't even get a chance to participate already says a lot."

"We didn't lose this battle unjustly!!"

Katakuri slowly stood up, his tall figure rising to his feet. "The key is not the result of our defeat."

"Instead, we should consider how we lost, why we lost, and whether we will lose again next time."

While Katakuri was speaking, no one in the room uttered a sound.

Everyone listened attentively to the words of their family's most powerful, invincible man, the undisputed pillar of this large family.

"The most urgent task is to find out our battle losses...and what about our younger brothers and sisters who were affected by the poison gas?!"

"Yes, the medical team is also speeding up the development of an antidote, but it may take some time!"

Mondor responded quickly.

"So, in other words, we're severely short-handed, with only Snag and his men. Are we going to wait until they recover from their injuries before taking action?"

Katakuri's eyelids twitched slightly twice.

But that wasn't all. Opera, with her cream drooping, handed over a newspaper.

"Morgans has already labeled us as the losers, and they've even revealed some of Mom's analyses and speculations, as well as her so-called 'weaknesses'..."

His face was quite grim as he said, "In their eyes, Mom's coma is a failure."

"After seeing these newspapers on the high seas, people will surely have different thoughts about our family and our mother."

Charlotte Linlin's defeat was a huge blow to the reputation of the Big Mom Pirates.

It is quite possible that some pirates genuinely believe their prestige and power have declined significantly and are gradually weakening, thus intending to come here with great interest to challenge them.

This kind of illusion is quite dangerous, given the current situation of the Charlotte family.

·· ·····Requesting flowers· ······

After all, they are currently facing a very small number of enemy troops...

"Is that so~~~"

Katakuri carefully examined the words on the newspaper, a serious look flashing across his eyes.

The current situation is far more severe than he imagined.

There are also reports that the so-called invasion by the Straw Hat Pirates was instigated by the World Government.

Katakuri had some doubts and speculations, but he didn't think about it too much.

After all, the world government is capable of doing such things.

"It seems things will only get better after Mom wakes up..."

As Katakuri was thinking this, his expression suddenly changed.

"Well……"

He then saw Charlotte Linlin lying on the ground beside him, exhaling a strange gas from her nostrils, and then slowly opening her eyes.

......... . ...

"Where am I?!"

"Mother!!!"

Upon hearing Charlotte Linlin's clear voice, Montord and the others all excitedly shouted in unison.

Great! Their mother, the true pillar of the pirate crew, has awakened.

And there are no problems at all; it seems that even the chaotic state of food cravings has been overcome.

Now, Totto Land can finally rest easy!

"What happened?!"

Upon seeing Katakuri, his expression relaxed somewhat, though he didn't seem to be in very good condition.

Charlotte Linlin slowly sat up, and at the same time, memories of the time before she fell into a coma gradually surfaced in her mind.

"I remember, the wedding cake I was most looking forward to was brought out, and then..."

Soon, the Straw Hat Pirates' cook, Sanji, entered the scene, and Caesar released his reading ability, which also reappeared clearly.

"My wedding cake!!"

Charlotte Linlin suddenly roared, "And Caesar!!!"

She finally realized what was happening, her eyes bloodshot as she gritted her teeth in hatred.

It was at this moment that she suddenly noticed the newspaper next to Katakuri and snatched it away.

"Losers...new emperors...two emperors on one ship?!"

Charlotte Linlin's body began to tremble.

The more she looked, the more violently she trembled.

At the same time, a powerful and cold aura, as well as an extremely chilling killing intent, began to slowly rise around her.

"The Straw Hat Pirates!!! The World Government!!!"

The furious roar, like that of a wounded beast, echoed above the cake castle.

[Thank you again to the generous donor 'Once Upon a Time There Was a Eunuch' for the generous donation! Thank you!!]

Chapter 519: Link and Zephyr's Encounter!! The other person is actually a Marine Admiral?!

That roar, which was almost as powerful as a wail, made Montor and the others' eardrums ache terribly.

Their expressions changed abruptly, and they quickly retreated a distance from Charlotte Linlin.

In this situation, their mother is clearly in an angry state and won't listen to anything they're saying.

No matter how much you talk to her, it has no effect.

But it would be better to wait until she calms down before approaching her again.
