For a while, viewers worldwide delved into contemplation, pondering which answer might hold the key.
After all, the rewards for these quizzes were quite substantial!
Everyone coveted this chance, knowing it was not one to be squandered!
Despite Luffy's triumph over Katakuri, the looming question didn't revolve around their clash.
Rather, what lay ahead for the Straw Hats?
While Katakuri posed a formidable threat, he wasn't the paramount concern for the Straw Hats in Totto Land.
It was evident to all who watched the live broadcast that in the outside world...
Usopp and the others sailed the Thousand Sunny, pursued by one of the Three Sweet Commanders and numerous ministers from Totto Land, alongside the entirety of Big Mom's pirate crew!
Even an enraged Big Mom wreaked havoc, leaving destruction in her wake!
In comparison, Katakuri paled in significance against such an onslaught.
Hence, neither Luffy nor the Straw Hat Pirates considered Katakuri their foremost enemy at present.
Their true enemies were the relentless pursuers from the Big Mom Pirates...including Big Mom herself!
Ultimately, after much deliberation, countless viewers, including prominent figures from the seas, opted for choices 1, 2, and 3.
Either Luffy and company met their demise at the hands of the Big Mom Pirates.
Or they were all apprehended by the Big Mom Pirates.
Scarcely anyone selected the latter four options, realizing the improbability of evading the rampaging Big Mom and her crew.
Relying on Nami and the others seemed utterly unrealistic!
Moreover, Luffy now found himself utterly spent after his showdown with Katakuri.
His chances of extricating himself from this predicament seemed slim. How could he possibly rendezvous with his comrades on Chocolate Island?
Of course, there were those who harbored faith in Luffy and his crew's successful escape... individuals like Sabo, Ace, and Garp!
Zoro, Sanji, and the rest, distant in the Water 7, staunchly believed in the fourth option.
[The quiz for prizes concludes here!]
[Now, let's continue with the remaining live broadcast footage]
[After Luffy's victory over Katakuri, he approached him with measured steps]
[Then, he casually placed a hat over his mouth, concealing his fang-filled grin.]
[This isn't Luffy insulting Katakuri, quite the opposite.]
[During the battle, Luffy noticed Katakuri's discomfort with his mouth being seen by others.]
[So now, I cover Katakuri's mouth with a hat, just to show this formidable foe a final sign of respect!]
[At that moment, Katakuri slowly closed his eyes.]
[He was genuinely impressed by Luffy!]
[Luffy walked away slowly, but inwardly, he felt utterly drained....]
[I don't have the strength to flee anymore!]
[Even though he had vanquished a mighty enemy, escaping to Chocolate Island to reunite with Nami and the others seemed like an impossible feat!]
[And then, just as he thought all hope was lost...]
[The one who came to his aid appeared!]
[That person was none other than Pekoms, a member of the Mink tribe like Pedro!]
[While Pekoms belonged to the Big Mom Pirates, he was once Pedro's younger sibling!]
[Now, with Pedro sacrificing himself to ensure the Straw Hat crew's escape, Pekoms chose to honor his late brother's final wish!]
[To aid the entire Straw Hat Pirates in escaping from the clutches of the Big Mom Pirates!]
[Thus, he lifted Luffy and dashed straight through the mirror world toward Chocolate Island.]
[Meanwhile, Nami and the others had also sought refuge on Chocolate Island aboard the Thousand Sunny!]
[However, they found themselves relentlessly pursued, with Big Mom hot on their heels!]
[The current predicament appeared insurmountable!]
[The Straw Hats were on the brink of being completely encircled and overwhelmed by the Yonko's forces!]
[Yet, just when all seemed lost.]
[An unexpected turn of events unfolded...]
[The Vinsmoke family, long absent, suddenly reappeared!]
[Sanji's father and siblings were seen rushing toward Cake Island with a sizable contingent!]
[It seemed they had come to provide reinforcements!]
[They brought their own family's endless Germa legions!]
[These individuals are all equipped with advanced technology, each one a well-trained warrior prepared to face life or death!]
[Upon their arrival, chaos engulfed the entire Big Mom Pirates in an instant!]
[To facilitate Luffy's escape, Pekoms fixed his gaze upon the moon and transformed into an uncontrollable Moon Lion!]
[Engaging in combat with ministers from various parts of the world]
[Meanwhile, under Bege's cover, Big Mom seized the cake Sanji had prepared in advance and fed it to her…]
[The delicious cake not only alleviated her schizophrenia but also sent her into a deep coma!]
[At this moment]
[Whether it's the Vinsmoke family, Pekoms, or even Bege, a fellow supernova!]
[They all unite to aid in the escape of Luffy and the entire Straw Hat crew.]
[With everyone's concerted effort, the seemingly insurmountable pursuit by the Big Mom Pirates comes to an abrupt halt!]
[Finally, with the assistance of Sanji's sister Reiju]
[She carries the two of them, soaring into the sky, and hurls Sanji and Luffy towards the Thousand Sunny anchored not far away!]
["Take your friends and go, Sanji, and don't ever look back."]
[With Reiju's blessing, Sanji takes the unconscious Luffy and successfully escapes to the Thousand Sunny!]
[Yet even as Luffy returns safely to the ship, the crisis is far from over!]
[Despite the aid of Bege and others, as well as the Germa army!]
[Even with Big Mom in a coma, her absence leaves a Yonko-level vacuum!]
[But the Big Mom Pirates remain a formidable force, still striking fear into all who encounter them!]
[Once again, they dispatch thousands, leading dozens of pirate vessels to pursue Luffy and his companions.]
[Today, the Thousand Sunny lies in tatters, unable to sail swiftly!]
[With Luffy's key fighters incapacitated, the Straw Hat crew faces a dire predicament!]
[Yet, at this critical juncture!]
[Countless fishmen emerge from the sea, clashing with the pursuers from the Big Mom Pirates!]
[These fishmen belong to Jinbe's crew, the Sun Pirates!]
[Jinbe and his allies arrive from Fish-Man Island, standing alongside Luffy and his crew in their time of need!]
