Katakuri did not relax due to Dylan's teasing.
He became more nervous.
The intelligence capabilities of the Big Mom Pirates are among the best on the sea.
Therefore, he knew some legends about the man in front of him.
"If he starts making witty remarks to the pirates that are difficult to understand, then this person is basically close to death."
After taking a few steps forward, Katakuri paused and inserted the three-pronged spear into the ground beside him.
"I'm here... to seek a way out for my brothers and sisters!"
The children of the Charlotte family standing further away showed nervous expressions on their faces.
Rairyu... This pirate's nightmare... Is there really hope?
"What to ask for?"
Dylan glanced at Katakuri.
This man is a very responsible guy, and he also cares about his younger brothers and sisters, but it's a pity.
Born in the wrong place.
Katakuri shook his head: "You are the winner, everything here is yours, whether it is the red historical text, whether it is treasure, including our lives, there is nothing I can give in exchange."
Dylan laughed:
"You can see clearly, yes, everything here is mine now. So how do you plan to save your younger brothers and sisters?"
Katakuri took off the scarf from under his neck and said in a deep voice: "With your justice!"
"Justice?"
After killing Linlin, Dylan seemed to be in a good mood and was not in a hurry to kill the remaining guys right away.
He looked at Katakuri with interest and said with a smile: "You are a pirate, and you actually want to use 'justice' to persuade me?"
"It's not coercion!" Katakuri shook his head.
"Your intelligence is equally powerful. You should know that many of them have never done evil, have never participated in robberies, and have no bad intentions! They..."
Katakuri gritted his teeth and said with difficulty: "They were just born here, this should not be the reason why they were executed..."
Dylan was silent for a moment. To be honest, there were indeed some people on the ship behind Katakuri who had not done evil.
The Big Mom Pirates are different from other pirate groups.
Most of the other pirate groups are made up of adults, who become pirates spontaneously and voluntarily.
And it is inevitable that many of them have participated in looting and killing.
But some of those people in the distance are only in their teens or even younger.
They have no choice in their origin, and a person's origin is indeed not a reason to execute him.
Just like before East Blue, Straw Hat and Ace went overseas.
Dylan did not choose to kill them when they were young and had not yet committed great evil.
On the one hand, it is because he does not want to conflict with the power of "fire" prematurely.
On the other hand, it is also because...
Even if I know the trajectory of history, I don't want to erase a person without committing a major crime.
In the end, I also need to use their hands to advance history, complete the Summit War, and once again shake the foundation of the World Government.
"Yes. As for who can leave, you choose yourself. If you choose the wrong one, they will all be executed. In addition..."
Dylan glanced around:
"As Linlin's children, they will sit together. If they live by the law and abide by the law, they will return to civilian status in the next generation. If anyone has a grudge or has any bad intentions..."
Dylan shook his cloak, holding Shura's handle with both hands and looking into the distance: "I am a person who is afraid of trouble, do you understand?"
Katakuri was silent at first. His original plan was that if Rairyu agreed, he could let some of his younger brothers and sisters live...
But...
He turned around with difficulty, looked past the cadres behind him, and gazed at his younger brothers and sisters on the boat.
"Normud... Bring... Delcher... Delje... Willow..." (T/N: Just Ignore this names)
After reading the five names, Katakuri fell into silence.
The others... were either combatants who had participated in plunder or had bad personalities, which would inevitably implicate other people in the future.
Five thin bodies stepped off the ship at Perospero's signal.
The others on the boat looked at their beloved second brother with incredulous expressions.
They... were abandoned...
"I don't want to!!!"
A shrill, piercing voice sounded on the ship.
Charlotte Flampe, holding a blowgun, had red eyes: "Why can't I live!? I'm obviously so cute too!!"
"Flampe..."
Brûlée, standing behind her, sighed and tried to reach out to comfort his younger sister.
"Don't touch me! You ugly monster!!"
Ga!
Katakuri's fist tightened.
This is an opportunity that was hard to come by! Although that man was very kind to the people, he was very strict with pirates...
Slap!!
Brûlée slapped Flampe on the face.
"That's why you can't live!"
"Well..."
Flampe groaned.
The short sword in Brûlée's hand had already been inserted into her heart.
"Don't blame me... Flampe... This is the chance of survival that Katakuri-nii has finally won for them..."
"If you die in my hands, you will suffer less pain..."
Tears flowed from the corners of Brûlée's eyes. She was a also a combatant.
She had no qualification to live.
Whoosh!!
A slash rushed towards Dylan who was sitting far away.
But Dylan did not raise his head, because a figure had blocked the slash.
Chacha...
Dylan looked up and Katakuri looked gloomy: "I'll finish it with my own hands!"
"You're crazy! Katakuri! There are so many of us! Why should we surrender! No-"
"Why should I let others slaughter me!!"
Looking at Charlotte Kato in the crowd who had gone mad, Katakuri closed his eyes slightly.
The people below the boat were vaguely divided into two camps.
"To be killed like this, it's better to give it a try."
More and more people came to the left.
I don't want to either...but...
Boom!!!
Conqueror's Haki erupted sky-high.
Most of those who remained on the ship fainted, and those on the left side took up arms.
A breeze blew by, and Katakuri rushed into the crowd.
········
"Pudding... ahem..."
Katakuri ignored the blood that continued to flow from the corner of his mouth.
"You... ahem... you are the sister... you have to take good care of them..."
The three-pronged spear had long been broken, and there were corpses on the ground behind him.
Several fatal wounds left his body in a state of disrepair.
He stretched out his remaining right hand to hold Pudding's shoulder: "Don't be resentful... forget everything here... be an... ordinary person..."
After finishing speaking, Katakuri dragged his heavy body to a tall woman with an ugly face.
The woman was still alive. When she saw Katakuri walking towards her, she smiled slightly:
"Elder brother..."
"Brûlée... I'm sorry... this time... your brother failed to protect you..."
"No, brother... you already very good..."
The brother and sister sat side by side and fell into a deep sleep.
