Bab 117: Chapter 117
Having once acquainted with the Rocks Pirates, he recognized the origin of this image.
Gale Emperor Carnes offered a bounty of 5.65 billion Berries.
He turned another page.
The succeeding poster featured another individual.
A man of lean build, two sweeping black wings unfurled behind him.
Ulquiorra Cifer commander of Gale Emperor Pirates, offered a bounty of 2.83 billion berries.
Katakuri's expression turned somber; he was no stranger to the rewards offered by the Gale Emperor Pirates.
However, the aftermath of the Marineford battle had caused a significant increase in those bounties. Clearly, something substantial had transpired in Marineford, something that had the World Government greatly concerned.
"It appears that Carnes's emergence has posed a significant threat to the Marines stationed at Marineford,"
Katakuri muttered to himself, his contemplation continuing as he flipped through the bounty notices.
Uchiha Obito, other commander of Gale Empreor Pirates offered a bounty of 1.5 billion berries.
Additionally, Demiurge, another commander, offered a bounty of 800 million berries.
Commander, Albedo, a prominent figure among the crew, offered a bounty of 700 million Berries.
Commander, Yuta, offered a reward of 500 million Berries.
Commander, Power, offered a bounty of 300 million Berries.
Before Katakuri's bounty notice could be fully absorbed, a voice resonated from the periphery.
"They're here!"
With that phrase, all heads swiveled toward the direction that the voice pointed.
The sight that greeted them was none other than the imposing Beasts Pirates, led by none other than Kaido himself.
"Go inform Mother that Kaido has arrived," Perospero directed a crew member who happened to be engrossed in some task.
Without delay, Big Mom made her leisurely approach, simultaneously indulging in a delectable cake as she moved.
"Ah, what have we here...?"
"It's been decades since we last laid my eyes on Kaido!"
"I haven't heard from you for a long time on this sea, I thought you were dead gone forever, and yet here you are, Ma Ma Ma Ma- Ha ha ha!!"
Kaido, who was sitting on the ground drinking wine, frowned slightly. He had never expected that he would never see this old woman in his life again, yet life had other plans.
"Stop talking nonsense and enough with the pointless chatter, old woman.
I'm not here to catch up with you." Kaido retorted with a simmering anger and irritation, finishing his words by flinging a newspaper down at her feet.
Nonchalantly, Big Mom chose not to read the newspaper Kaido had tossed her way, instead using it to wipe remnants of cream from her hands.
"What are you doing, you old hag?? Read it."
....
"Whitebeard is dead."
"Ma Ma Ma Mama... Isn't that a cause for celebration? Whitebeard's demise surely favors us," Big Mom responded, her attention more on wiping cream from her hands than reading the newspaper.
"Perhaps once upon a time, Whitebeard's demise would have been cause for celebration among us, but now... things aren't so certain.
That damn Whitebeard was most likely killed by Carnes."
"And so, what, what am I supposed to make of it?" inquired Big Mom, her tone challenging.
"Carnes's next target is either you or me. Don't play ignorant, old hag, or you'll soon meet your end."
"You would surely meet your demise at the hand of Carnes, if you do nothing now."
"Ma Ma Ma Mama...."
"Hmm, hmm..."
Big Mom grinned, a faint smile played across her face, but in an instant, her demeanor shifted.
Her eyes bore deep into Kaido as she stared at him and with a sudden intensity, her smile was replaced by a razor-sharp focus.
She locked her eyes on Kaido and asked, "So, what's your plan then?"
