When Cracker returned to the Big Mom Pirates' Queen Mama Chanter...
His entire expression wilted like an eggplant hit by frost.
Moreover, Cracker was carrying an unconscious Big Mom back to the ship.
It was clear that he already knew what had happened.
Cracker also knew what kind of decision Katakuri and Smoothie had made.
This made Cracker feel extremely guilty.
If he hadn't been captured, none of this would have happened.
But he didn't have any countermeasures. Was he supposed to fight the Whitebeard Pirates?
Even Katakuri chose to avoiding conflict between the two sides in this way. What could he do?
So, Cracker could only carry his mother back with a downcast face.
At this moment, a group of ministers from the Big Mom Pirates had been waiting on the deck for a long time.
"It's Mom! Mom is back!"
One of the ministers was overjoyed, but soon realized that something was wrong with Big Mom, "Why is Mom asleep? No... it seems like she's passed out? Damn Whitebeard, what did he do to Mom?!"
One of the ministers, gripping the hilt of his sword, gritted his teeth and said, "Is this how the Whitebeard Pirates treat our Mom? Damn it, we should fight them and see who is the real king of the New World!"
"Huh, Cracker is back too... It seems that although the Whitebeard guys are jerks, they are quite trustworthy..."
"Wait! Why did only Mom and Cracker come back?"
Soon, someone noticed something was wrong.
Yeah, why did only two people come back?
Where is Katakuri?
And Smoothie?
"Cracker, what's going on? Why did only you and Mom come back?" Snack immediately walked up to the dejected Cracker and asked him bluntly, "Where is Katakuri who negotiated with Whitebeard? And Smoothie who just ran over? Why didn't they come back?!"
Cracker clenched his teeth, his eyes filled with tears, and replied, "They exchanged their freedom for mine and Mom's. From today on, they are auxiliary members of the Whitebeard Pirates."
These words were shocking.
The whole ship was almost in an uproar.
"What?"
Snack's eyes were wide open, "They... they both actually chose the second option given by Whitebeard? How... how can this be?! And they are our Big Mom Pirates' Commanders! They are only auxiliary members in the Whitebeard Pirates? What a joke! Who is Whitebeard looking down on?!"
The eldest son of the Big Mom Pirates, "Charlotte Perospero", had a solemn expression.
"This might be the best solution that Katakuri and Smoothie could think of." Perospero continued, "If we give 70% of our territory to the Whitebeard Pirates, how can we support so many soldiers in the Big Mom Pirates?"
"In the end, the entire Big Mom Pirates will fall apart, even if Mom is here, it will be hard to reverse the decline. The reason why we are called one of the Four Emperor Pirates is not only because Mom is strong, but also because our forces are large."
"If either of these two is missing, our Big Mom Pirates will hardly be called one of the Four Emperor Pirates. Huh, I think, Katakuri must have thought of this."
"He did this to preserve the title of 'Four Emperor Pirates' for our Big Mom Pirates."
Perospero took a deep breath.
As the eldest son, he felt useless, at this time he needed his younger brothers and sisters to solve the crisis of the pirate group.
He, the eldest son of the Charlotte family could not be the pillar of Big Mom Pirates..
This also made him very disheartened.
"But, but those are two Commanders! They are our family!"
Charlotte Oven, the baking minister of the Big Mom Pirates, is now furious: "Damn Whitebeard! I'm going to fight him, even if it costs me my life, I have to bring Katakuri and Smoothie back!"
The most important point is that Katakuri is his own big brother.
Not only do they share the same mother, but they also share the same father.
Katakuri, Daifuku, and Oven are triplet brothers.
"Calm down, Oven!"
Perospero spoke softly: "Katakuri and Smoothie chose to sacrifice their own freedom, and they finally exchanged for our mother and Cracker. Are you going to provoke Whitebeard and let our mother be captured again? Don't waste their efforts and sacrifices!"
Perospero even gave an example: "Didn't you watch the live broadcast of the Summit War? Didn't you see that the second division captain of the Whitebeard Pirates impulsively almost got the entire pirate group involved?"
After hearing this, Oven took a few deep breaths and forcefully suppressed the anger in his heart: "But we can't swallow this anger, can we? We can't just watch Katakuri and Smoothie fall into Whitebeard's clutches, can we?"
Owen gritted his teeth and said, "As the eldest son, you should come up with a strategy, not just stop us?!"
Perospero was very troubled.
If he knew what to do, he would have done it a long time ago.
Perospero thought for a while, he could only respond like this: "Everything... wait until our mother wakes up to make a decision."
...
Compared to the chaos on the ship of the Big Mom Pirates, the ship of the Whitebeard Pirates was a scene of revelry.
"Tsk tsk tsk, I didn't expect these two guys to become our Whitebeard Pirates' external crew members, Pops is really amazing!"
Diamond Jozu was drunk, he unabashedly looked at Katakuri and Smoothie: "If it weren't for my arm being broken, I really want to try how powerful these two are!"
Vista was a bit worried, he said, "Calm down, I suddenly thought, Pops doing this actually has hidden dangers. After all, these two are not on the same side with us."
Vista voiced his concerns: "What if... they betray us like Blackbeard?"
The eleventh team captain "Kingdew", interjected: "I have heard of Katakuri, he is a very upright and pure man, he and Teach are completely different types of people."
"I believe that since he has made such a choice, he will do his best to fulfill his choice. Besides, as long as we keep an eye on them normally."
The main thing is that the betrayal of Blackbeard made them a bit too sensitive.
After all, the butterfly effect triggered by a Blackbeard Teach...
It really hurt their Whitebeard Pirates a lot!
On the other side.
Katakuri and Smoothie were in a corner on the ship.
The pair of siblings looked at each other and silently sighed in unison.
There was no way, things had come to this, they could only drown their sorrows in drink.
Katakuri turned his head so that Smoothie couldn't see his face, then pulled down his scarf, and drank the cup of strong alcohol in his hand in one gulp.
Then quickly put the scarf back on, quickly covering his ferocious big mouth.
Smoothie was sipping lightly, she swayed the large wine glass in her hand, and looked back at a group of Whitebeard Pirates on the ship.
"Don't worry, don't forget that there is still big brother Perospero, as the eldest son, he must know why we did this, he will definitely suppress other impulsive people."
Smoothie spoke in a low voice.
Katakuri nodded.
Just as he wanted to say something, he suddenly felt something.
He lowered his head and looked behind him.
The figure in his eyes was a blond kid.
"Hello there!"
Naruto grinned at the two of them, and introduced himself enthusiastically: "My name is Uzumaki Naruto, I'm the first division captain of the New Whitebeard Pirates!"
Katakuri's mouth twitched instantly: "Little brat, do you think we're easy to tease? Your first division captain is clearly Marco, right? I'm not in the mood to play pirates with you."
Smoothie, however, keenly caught on, she asked: "New Whitebeard Pirates? What does that mean?!"
"It means the New Whitebeard Pirates! The current Whitebeard Pirates are divided into 'new' and 'old' parts!"
Naruto answered frankly.
Upon hearing this, Katakuri was a bit surprised: "So, you little brat, are you the first division captain of the New Whitebeard Pirates?"
Naruto chuckled, he gave a thumbs up: "That's right!!!"
"Heh, then, Mr. First Division Captain." Smoothie teased: "Do you have any orders?"
Naruto stated his purpose, he said a bit awkwardly: "Although I am the first division captain, I... indeed don't have any subordinates."
"So!" Naruto immediately threw off the embarrassment on his face, his little face seriously said: "I want to invite you two to join the first division and become my subordinates!"
"Don't look at me as still young, but I will definitely be a qualified captain, and in the future, I even want to become the Hokage of Konohagakure!"
Katakuri: "..."
Smoothie: "..."
Goodness!
If it was Marco who came over and said this to them, they might be a little bit tempted.
After all, Marco is indeed qualified to say such things.
But the problem is, is this little brat who doesn't look more than ten years old serious?
Even if this little devil also holds the title of first division captain.
But isn't this too chaotic?
"Little brat, if you want me to be your subordinate, you should grow up a bit first! You haven't even started growing your bottom hair yet!" Smoothie casually dismissed Naruto: "This kind of pirate play game, you should go play with your little friends."
"Hey, I'm very serious!" Naruto didn't know what it meant that he hadn't grown bottom hair, he thought his hair was quite lush!
Could it be that they both think he is too weak?
Naruto emphasized with a fist and palm: "I'm not weak!"
Seeing that this little devil is a bit troublesome.
Smoothie shrugged and said: "Then, our first division captain, you have to prove that you are indeed not weak, right? How about this... if you can hit him, then he will be your subordinate, how about it?"
Smoothie pointed at Katakuri.
Katakuri: "???"
"Hey hey hey!" Katakuri immediately expressed his dissatisfaction: "Don't push this troublesome little brat to me, okay? And, don't make decisions for me without permission!"
"As long as I hit him, it's okay?" Naruto was immediately full of energy: "Okay! Then I'm going!"
Katakuri's expression turned black.
It's okay for his sister to dig a small pit for him.
This troublesome little brat actually took this joke seriously.
But the next second, Katakuri and Smoothie, this pair of siblings, suddenly showed a few surprised expressions on their faces.
Because...
They saw this self-proclaimed "Uzumaki Naruto" little brat suddenly burst out with a very strange and cold energy, that orange-red energy wrapped his whole body, and also made the little brat's momentum rapidly rise.
They could even see that Uzumaki Naruto's body was undergoing a kind of beast-like mutation.
"Devil Fruit ability?" Katakuri murmured in surprise: "Zoan? Ordinary Zoan, doesn't have this kind of movement, right?"
Smoothie said in surprise: "It might be a rare Mythical Zoan."
"I'm going up!"
With a loud shout from Naruto, he rushed towards Katakuri in an instant, his small body flew up and kicked towards Katakuri's abdomen.
"Haha! I hit him!"
Just as Naruto's kick was about to make intimate contact with Katakuri's abdomen, Naruto was already excited and thrilled.
However...
With a bewildered expression on Naruto's face, he passed right through, without feeling any impact.
A large hole appeared in Katakuri's abdomen, and Naruto passed through this hole.
"You are pretty fast."
Katakuri rarely gave a positive compliment. For a kid so young, this speed... was indeed astonishing.
"What's the deal with your body?"
Naruto was shocked and puzzled.
"Because, I am a special Paramecia type user of the Mochi Mochi Fruit." Katakuri explained, "As long as I can predict your attack in advance, I can move my physical body to any part to avoid any attack."
Katakuri raised the corner of his mouth with a triumphant smile, "Brat, you have been scammed, you picked the wrong opponent."
Smoothie gave a dark smile.
Naruto: "..."
...
The next day.
Early morning.
Yesterday's banquet lasted until late at night, and almost everyone in the Whitebeard Pirates was drunk.
By early morning, many people were still sleeping on the deck.
The deck was filled with the smell of alcohol.
"What?" Just then, an incredulous exclamation rang out from the ship, "Pops, are... are you serious? Can we really bring Ace back to life?"
The one who made such an exclamation was Marco.
His voice was trembling.
Marco even wondered if Pops had drunk too much last night and hadn't sobered up yet?
"Gurararararara!" Whitebeard grinned and laughed, "Stupid son, do you think I would joke about this kind of thing?"
Whitebeard laughed heartily, "This is a forbidden technique from another world! It's called - Edo Tensei!"
Marco was stunned, "Edo Tensei?"
...
