Capítulo 256: Chapter 255
"For my life...?" Luffy asked, scratching his head with a puzzled expression. "Why should I exchange my life for something like that?"
As if suddenly understanding, Luffy's face lit up with realization. "Oh! I get it now! This Poneglyph must be super important to you, right? Well, how about this—we won't borrow it, we'll just make a copy!"
He added, as if struck by brilliance, "By the way, we can pay you!"
The entire hall fell into an eerie silence. Every eye widened in disbelief, and it took a moment for the shock to set in.
Logan, trying his best to keep a straight face, nearly burst out laughing. Luffy's innocence and bluntness were legendary, but even for him, this was next-level absurdity.
"Pay... pay?" Big Mom's face twisted in fury, her mouth twitching with rage. She couldn't remember the last time she had been so infuriated. Her whole body trembled with anger.
Next to her, Stussy, the Queen of the Pleasure District, was barely able to stifle a laugh as she bit into her apple pie. "Little brother, this isn't about payment. Do you even know what the Poneglyph is?"
"I don't know!" Luffy answered honestly, as always. "But I do know that if I want to be the Pirate King, I need to find them first!"
Stussy chuckled softly, clearly entertained by the exchange. "You're quite interesting. You're not wrong—if you want to become the Pirate King, you'll need those special Poneglyphs."
With a sly smile, she leaned in closer. "But let me ask you this: knowing how valuable they are, why would Big Mom ever share that information with you?"
Luffy looked genuinely stumped, his face scrunching up in thought as if pondering the deepest philosophical question. "Heh? Good point..." he muttered, clearly lost.
Logan couldn't take it anymore. He walked up to Luffy, placing a hand on his captain's shoulder. "Come on, Luffy, don't let her confuse you. We're pirates! And believe me, we've been way too polite for pirates already."
Logan turned to Stussy, his expression serious. "He's right—Luffy is going to be the Pirate King. And if that means going to war with the Four Emperors to get those Poneglyphs, then so be it."
The surrounding pirates all looked at him in disbelief, whispering among themselves.
"Does this guy think they can take on Big Mom...?"
"He must be out of his mind."
Before anyone could speak, Big Mom's booming voice filled the room. "ENOUGH!!!"
Her Soul-Soul Fruit's power rippled through the air, the invisible energy of her soul-stealing ability flooding the hall. Her eyes were wide with anger as she locked onto Logan. "Are you ready to DIE?!"
Big Mom's plan was simple: target Logan. If the soul-attack worked on him, then surely Luffy would crumble once he saw his comrade's life force being drained.
The atmosphere in the room became suffocating. Pirates held their breath, feeling the weight of Big Mom's power as it settled over Logan. The hall seemed to vibrate with tension.
"She's using that technique again!" one pirate whispered.
"It didn't work on Straw Hat, but this guy won't be able to resist. He's finished!"
Everyone watched with bated breath, expecting Logan to crumble under the weight of Big Mom's power.
But instead, Logan smirked, completely unfazed. He waved dismissively at Big Mom, his voice dripping with sarcasm. "Come on, Big Mom. You're using this soul trick to scare kids? Is that the best you've got? You're underestimating us."
Gasps echoed throughout the hall. Pirates looked at each other, incredulous. A trick to scare children...? Many of them were trembling with fear, and this man was mocking it?
"You... you..." Big Mom stammered, momentarily at a loss for words. She couldn't believe it. Her Soul-Soul attack, one of her most feared abilities, had failed—again!
Grabbing a nearby pirate, she activated her soul-stealing ability to confirm that her powers were working. The terrified pirate's soul was instantly sucked out, floating toward Big Mom, leaving his body lifeless.
No problem, Big Mom thought. My powers are still intact. That meant the problem wasn't with her—it was with these two brats standing before her.
"You two... are you not afraid of me at all?" Big Mom asked, her voice low and dangerous.
Luffy blinked innocently. "Why would we be afraid?"
Logan couldn't resist chiming in. "Big Mom, I'm a member of the future Pirate King's crew. A mere Four Emperors doesn't scare me."
The room erupted in shocked whispers. The audacity! Pirates gawked at Logan's bold declaration, their disbelief growing by the second.
Big Mom's eyes flared with fury. "What a big mouth!!!" she roared. "I'll make your death slow and painful!"
Her enormous sword, Napoleon, appeared in her hand, and with a fierce swing, she unleashed her most devastating attack. "IKOKU SOVEREIGNTY!!"
The force of the attack tore through the air like a storm, the energy wave so powerful that the ground shook beneath their feet. Big Mom's laughter echoed through the hall as the attack hurtled toward Logan.
Logan raised his hand, summoning the Clow Card shield. The invisible barrier formed instantly, intercepting the blade just before it could reach him.
BOOM!
The force of the collision sent shockwaves through the hall. Dust and debris filled the air, and for a moment, it seemed like the entire room would collapse.
But as the dust settled, everyone saw the impossible: Logan stood there, completely unscathed. Big Mom's mighty sword was still hovering just inches from his face, unable to break through the barrier.
Big Mom stared in disbelief. "What... what is this?"
Logan yawned, clearly unimpressed. "That's it? How boring."
Without warning, he clenched his fist, Armament Haki surging over his arm. With a single motion, he threw a punch.
"Serious Punch!!" Logan's fist shot forward, shrouded in dark Haki. The air itself seemed to warp under the immense force.

Capítulo 257: Chapter 256
"Serious Punch!!"
If Luffy can do it, Logan can do it too.
And with Logan, the same move packed a far more devastating punch.
Boom!
It looked like an ordinary fist at first glance, but when it connected with Big Mom's iron belly, the impact created a massive ripple effect. It was as if a stone had been dropped into the center of a still lake, sending shockwaves throughout her entire body.
BOOM!
The explosion of power was like a rocket's tail flame, and Big Mom was launched across the grand hall, crashing hard against the massive wall.
For a few seconds, the room was deathly quiet.
The pirates stood there, blinking, trying to comprehend what had just happened. Big Mom—their Big Mom—had been knocked across the room like a rag doll.
As her massive body slumped down the wall like a glob of clay, sliding to the ground in an unceremonious heap, disbelief hung thick in the air.
Impossible!
This couldn't be happening!
Charlotte Galette was the first to break the silence, her scream piercing through the stunned stillness. "MOM!!!"
Her cry shattered the fragile silence, triggering chaos among the pirates.
"What?! Big Mom... she was...!"
"That's... no way! Am I hallucinating?!"
"This must be a dream! There's no way Mama could be knocked down like that!"
Big Mom's pirates were in complete denial, unable to accept the sight before them. Their indestructible, all-powerful leader had just been smashed against the wall like she was nothing.
"Impossible!!!" gasped Du Feld, the Loan Shark King, dropping his cigarette to the floor in shock.
"Their strength... it's unreal!" Stussy muttered, her usual composure shaken. "But... Big Mom isn't done yet."
As if on cue, Big Mom began to stir, her body slowly rising from the ground. The groans of pain escaping her lips were unnerving, but she was getting back up.
"No way! After a punch like that from Logan, she's still standing?" Nami gasped, her hand covering her mouth in disbelief.
"That's the power of the Four Emperors for you," Zoro remarked, his gaze sharpening, filled with a sense of challenge. "Even after a hit like that, she's still ready to fight."
Luffy's eyes widened in excitement. He raised his hands, shouting, "WOW! You're still standing? You're so strong!"
Big Mom, still reeling from the blow, caught those words. To her, it was as if Luffy's compliment was laced with mockery.
Actually? They had the audacity to act surprised she could stand up after a single punch?
The rage that had been simmering within Big Mom finally boiled over.
"YOU STUPID BASTARD!!" she roared, steam practically blowing out of her nostrils in fury. "ZEUS!!! PROMETHEUS!!!"
Responding to her rage-filled cry, the sun, Prometheus, and the thundercloud, Zeus, materialized at her side.
"Mama!" Prometheus growled, swelling with fiery intensity.
"We're ready to fight, Mama!" Zeus echoed, trying to flatter Big Mom, despite the ominous threat before them.
"DESTROY THEM!" Big Mom's command was a primal roar, the kind that shook the souls of even her most loyal underlings.
"YES, MAMA!!" Prometheus bellowed, instantly expanding into a massive fireball. Flames gushed from its mouth, hot and fierce enough to melt steel.
"Heh, leave this to me!" Nami said confidently, as she summoned the energy of her Ice Cards.
WHOOSH!
A freezing cold wave surged forward, colliding with Prometheus' fiery assault.
CRACKLE, CRACKLE!
The sound of the ice freezing the fire echoed through the hall as Nami's cold front enveloped Prometheus, snuffing out the flames and freezing him solid. The once fearsome ball of fire plummeted to the ground with a heavy THUD, completely immobilized in a shell of ice.
"Unforgivable!!" Zeus howled, transforming into a massive black storm cloud. Lightning crackled wildly within the dense mass. "Thunder Bolt!!"
A colossal bolt of lightning shot down from the heavens, headed straight for Nami.
Nami merely giggled and dashed behind Logan for cover.
The lightning slammed into both Logan and Luffy.
"Got them!" the pirates shouted in triumph.
"Zeus, you did it! You really hit them!" one cried out, but the celebration was short-lived.
The lightning rolled over Logan and Luffy like nothing, flowing harmlessly over them and into the ground.
"Looks like you're in for a chill time," Logan said calmly, stretching out his hand. With a flick of his fingers, icy energy surged forth, freezing Zeus into a fluffy cloud of frozen marshmallow.
"What's going on? How... how are they doing this?" Stussy's jaw dropped as she watched in disbelief.
"They're not even afraid of electricity!" Big News Morgans chimed in, furiously jotting notes. "This is headline material—an entire crew with these powers?"
"These guys are a nightmare!" Stussy rubbed her forehead, realizing the trouble brewing.
"My lady," Sanji suddenly appeared between Logan and Luffy, slipping into a gentleman's bow. He smiled brightly at Stussy. "Would you care to join us aboard our ship for a drink?"
But as soon as Sanji appeared, several mocking voices echoed from across the hall.
"Eh? Isn't that Sanji?"
"Our useless brother? How embarrassing!"
"After all these years, he's turned into such a bootlicker..."
Sanji's brothers, the Vinsmoke siblings, sneered, their cruel laughter echoing in the grand hall.
Vinsmoke Judge's voice cut through the noise like ice. "Sanji! Get over here!!"
