Chapter 294: Vivi vs Katakuri
"Yanagi mochi! (Willow mochi)." Katakuri swang his leg upwards and sprout multiple tendrils, at the end of these were copies of his leg.
He then brought them down upon Vivi and started to stomp over her.
Vivi could dodge these attacks without difficulty, but she then saw him move from his spot and lunge at her with his trident.
"Mochi Tsuki! (Mochi thrust)." Katakuri twisted his mochi arm and then untwisted it while sending his weapon forward, creating a mighty drilling effect.
Vivi divided her body into two, sending one body to each side of Kataturi as he was passing through.
Both Vivis sent punches to his torso but he distorted his body at an impossible angle to avoid the attacks while bringing back his weapon arm like it was made of rubber.
As the trident was about to hit her, she divided herself once more, avoiding the attack and creating a third copy of herself.
"Mmmm…you have divided your aura into three?." Katakuri looked a bit confused as he looked between the three Vivis, trying to figure out which one was the real one.
"What's the matter?." Vivi 1 asked.
"Having trouble finding the real one?" Vivi 2 added.
"Let me give you a hint…we all are the real ones" Vivi 3 grinned.
"That's…strange. No matter...I'll start with you." He looked at Vivi 1.
"Yaki Mochi! (Grilled Mochi)" His arm bulged up and exploded into flames, launching his haki-covered fist toward her.
Vivi 1 transformed her arms into an ice shield before coating it with armament haki.
The first impacted the shield and managed to crack it, but it was not destroyed.
The two other Vivis did not waste time and went after Kataturi.
Vivi 2 formed an ice blade while Vivi 3 created some ice knuckles. Both weapons were coated with haki, otherwise, it would be difficult to cause serious damage to him.
Katakuri hurried to reform his missing arm and used his trident to block her attacks.
His speed was not up to Vivi's level but he always seemed to know where to block.
Vivi 1 recovered from the attack and joined the assault with an ice spear.
Feeling somewhat overwhelmed, Katakuri resorted to his big guns.
"Nagare Mochi! (Flowing mochi)" He activated his awakening, transforming his surroundings into mochi that he could control.
The floor beneath Vivi turned white and transformed in an attempt to trap her and slow her movements.
Katakuri did not stop there.
"Kagami mochi! (Concentrate mochi)" This time, he transformed the walls, making them collapse on top of the three girls.
"Please die…." Katakuri was breathing heavily. He has never used so many of his abilities in such a short period of time. But she was not giving time to relax at all.
The mochi started to shake, and then…a powerful stream of water pierced through the thick substance.
The water remained floating in the air for a few seconds before it all started to condense together, forming the figure of Vivi.
"Is that all you got?" Vivi taunted him.
"I could say the same to you. I know your power is limited to how much access to water you have. In this place, there is no water at all. Those three bodies you made before must be your limit." Katakuri said.
"Is that what your plan was? To bring me here…a place disconnected from rivers, lakes, and the sea. So I could only rely on a very limited resource to fight." She seemed to ponder for a moment.
"Is not a bad plan" She admitted.
Katakuri frowned.
"But it will not work…" He knew it.
"No." Vivi's eyes became beacons of pure white light. Her hair turned translucid and flowed like a water current.
Blobs of water started to appear out of thin air from all over the corridor.
"This is impossible!. This Mirror world is disconnected from the outside world. Where is all this water coming from?!" Brulee, who had been observing the fight from the sidelines, was looking around in disbelief.
"I don't know either, but…this is bad!." Katakuri pushed both hands against the ground. These ones fused with it.
Giant arms made of mochi emerged from the walls and floor.
"I need to end this now! or else, it will be too late."
"Is already too late," Vivi said as she made all the water converge above her, creating a massive sphere.
"And for your information…there is plenty of water in the air. Is called humidity."
"There is water in the air?..." Brulee realized her mistake. This Mirror World may be disconnected from the real one, but in order to support life, it had to be filled with air. And the place was absolutely massive…if even only a small percentage of it was water. Vivi would have access to millions of tons of it.
"Chikara Mochi! (Power mochi)" The giant arms he created, started to move and attacked Vivi.
The sphere of water she created was continuously growing with no sign of stopping.
She separated part of it and used it to make ice shields that would block Katakuri attacks.
None of the punches came close to touching her.
She then noticed some donuts made of mochi floating around her.
"Ahhh!" His Conqueror haki burst out.
Mochi Ginchaku!" The donuts transformed into elongated arms covered in haki that launched at her.
Vivi felt the pressure of the Conqueror but it did not prevent her from moving. She then disappeared from her spot, avoiding all the arms, and reappeared floating in the air above the sphere.
"That was a nice move…let me show you mine now."
The sphere of water exploded into thousands of smaller pieces that surrounded Katakuri.
"What ar-" Before he could speak, he had a vision of an incoming attack.
"Oh…" He knew at that moment that it was time. He has seen this image before.
The thousands of blobs of water transformed into spears made of black ice and propelled at a tremendous speed towards him.
Katakuri made use of his ability to predict the trajectory of the attacks, but no matter how he did it. He saw no way to avoid more than a dozen spears. The rest would all be piercing his body.
With no way to prevent his defeat, he turned towards his sister.
"Brulee!, leave this place. Seal this world and don't allow her escape!" This may be the only chance they had.
"No!, brother!" She cried in desperation as she saw thousands of black projectiles pierce her brother's body.
He could have recovered from a few of them with his ability. But all of them were coated in armament haki and the ones that pierced his heart and brain…even for someone as powerful as Katakuri, there was a limit to how much he could survive. And Vivi's attack had gone past that limit by a long shot.
Brulee woke from the shock of seeing her beloved brother die. She could not waste time now, less his sacrifice will be in vain.
Her body was already half submerged in a mirror, so before Vivi could reach her, she left the Mirror World.
She will need to destroy all the mirrors and seal this place. As long as she never uses her ability again and never connects a new mirror to this world…Vivi will have no way to escape. This was a price she was willing to pay to contain that monster.
"You will rot here! Strawhat Vivi!"
