Chapter 291: Whole Cake Island
"Why is that place empty? are they building something?" Franky pointed at an empty loot on the main street.
"Oh, that… that's the place where Lady Puddins cafe was located. We had to remove it when the ingredients started to go bad. It was a very popular place…" The man made a very sad face.
"Did something happen to the owner?" Asked Franky.
Nami smacked him on the back.
"Have some respect! Is obvious that it did!"
"Indeed…Lady Pudding was…kidnaped by Black Beard some time ago." Explained the man.
"Blackbeard?...that name sounds familiar," Zoro muttered.
"Well, it should…is the guy that Ace was looking for, remember? I think he ended up becoming a Shichibukai." Said Nami.
"He is more than that now!" Exclaimed the man.
"He is one of the Sea Emperors now!....a very dangerous man. Ah…poor Lady Pudding…." he cried.
"Why would some big shot like that kidnap some random cafe owner?" Asked Zoro.
"She is not some random cafe owner!. Lady Pudding is the 35th daughter of the Empress, Big Mom."
"Whoa, a daughter of Big Mom?!" Nami shouted.
"35th?...how many children does she have?" Franky became shocked.
"In any case…if it wasn't for that tragedy, she would probably be the one getting married now with the Vinsmoke family. But alas…"
A smile returned to the face of the man.
"But I don't want to bore you with our troubles, good travelers. If there is something else you would like to know, I'll happily answer it."
"Do you have something else to eat here?, I don't like chocolate…" Zoro grumbled.
"Hoho!, I'm sure you will find something that you like in Totto Land. This island specializes in chocolate but there are other 34 islands in the archipelago, and each one specializes in one of the Empres's favorite types of food." the man smiled.
"And where does Big Mom live? I think I remember those guys mentioning Whole Cake Island or something like that." Said Franky.
"What?!, why would you wanna go there?... Whole Cake Island is off-limits. Only the Charlotte family or authorized personnel can go there. Is a great crime to set foot on that island without permission. " He trembled in fear.
"But just in theory… where is this Whole Cake island located?" Asked Vivi.
"It's in…in the center of the Totto Land archipelago. Is not hard to find." Answer the man.
"Okay, let's go then. Back to the ship." Said Vivi.
"Wait!, I'm still starving!" Cried Nami.
"Right…" Vivi approached one of the houses and tore off a big chunk of the wall.
"This should be enough."
"I don't like that…" Zoro huffed.
"I don't think I should eat only chocolate… that's a bit…" Nami said.
"Fine, well stop in one of the other islands first…" Vivi conceded.

Late afternoon, right outside Whole Cake Island.
"It wasn't very hard to find at all." Said Nami.
"Of course not!, it looks like a giant birthday cake…it even has a candle on the top." Vivi pointed.
Zoro grumbled.
He was cranky because they had not found any food that he liked. Turns out they only had sweets in Totto Land. Because those are the only things Big Mom eats.
They traveled for a bit longer after arriving.
The sky was darkening and they needed to find a safe spot to leave the ship.
"When that guy said this island was off limits, I was expecting to find a lot more security. Haven't seen a single guard on the coast." Said Zoro.
"Not many would be crazy enough to enter the island of an Emperor uninvited…security guards would have little work to do," Vivi concluded.
"Look!, that seems like a good spot." Nami pointed to a covered area between two mounts of something that looked like cake frosting.
Once the ship was well secured, they used one of the mini ships to reach land.
"Ew…this is not sand…is sticky." Nami lifted her boots.
"Yeah…I like sweets but this is a bit too much." Vivi frowned.
Around them were mountains of cake and a forest a short distance away.
"Oi, wait!. I think I saw someone between those trees." Said Franky.
"So? There could be people living there." Zoro shrugged.
"No, but I think I saw Sanji for a moment and he he ran away…how weird," Franky commented.
"If the shitty cook was there, why would he run away?" Zoro asked.
"Can you find him?" Nami asked Vivi. If she could use her senses to find Sanji, this could be so much easier.
"I do sense him but…there is too much contamination here to pinpoint his exact location." Answers Vivi.
"Contamination?, what do you mean?" Asked Nami.
"You should be able to sense this much….her aura."
"Huh…I can only feel one aura that way…is a very overwhelming one." Nami frowned.
"You are sensing Big Mom. That woman is not hiding herself at all and his aura is strong enough to cover everything else." Explained Vivi.
"That's Big Mom?!...no wonder." Nami looked at her
"Vivi, I need you to promise me something."
"What is it now?" Vivi raised an eyebrow.
"You will not fight Big Mom directly." Nami had a serious expression.
"What are you talking about? I wasn't planning on fighting that whale…"
"Vivi…I remember what you told me before. To prevent her from going after Sanji's loved ones. Just don't fight her, please." Nami begged.
"I promise you. I won't… not directly at least. I just have to make her a bit angry with me, that's all." Vivi said.
"Are you two done?, or do you need some time alone?...because Zoro just went into that forest." Franky pointed.
"Ah…there we go again…" Vivi sighed.
