Of course we lost money!
His original intention was simply to destroy Whole Cake Island, so that the Big Mom Pirates would learn a lesson and stop bothering him in the future.
Who knew I'd have to fight that old woman so fiercely?
He used all his savings to work on that "Finger of the Sky".
What?
The Great Wilderness Sky Finger?
Whatever the name, it's just an island aggregation mimicry; next time we can call it 'Buddha's Palm'.
Aside from the island containing the 'pure gold,' he used all the other islands. If he were to really push his luck, he would lose so much money he'd be devastated.
Last time, we used up all our supplies to fight Kaido.
This time, we cut our losses in time and stopped when things were halfway down, otherwise he would have nowhere to cry after he finished.
Moreover, if Charlotte Linlin were to completely destroy everything, although he could use that opportunity to stab her a few more times, it would be a matter of life and death.
He's no match for Charlotte Linlin, and now he's absolutely certain of it.
Unlike Kaido, that idiot has an incredibly strong regenerative ability, this old woman has exceptionally high defensive capabilities.
"The Iron Balloon really lives up to its name. My Yellow Dragon hit her less than Kaido's damage, but... her recovery ability isn't as strong as Kaido's."
Kuro, thinking about the injuries Huanglong had inflicted, said something.
The damage from the Four Gods' Secret Technique only made her pause for a moment, while the damage from the Yellow Dragon... was not as great as the Four Gods' Secret Technique.
He didn't waste his eight months on Pegasus Island; his physical strength improved considerably.
Previously, he would exhaust his stamina after unleashing the Yellow Dragon nine times or the Four Gods' Secret Techniques three times.
But now, he can unleash the Yellow Dragon fifteen times and the Four Gods' Secret Techniques five times.
If the fight continues, given his own abilities, he estimates that very few will remain in the Kingdom of Totto Land. He thinks he can cut off both of that old woman's hands and inflict a severe injury, but he himself will be finished off, while she will have to start all over again and earn the title of 'Armless Witch'. He estimates that at that point, the Navy will be able to crush her in one blow.
Then he'll go to the underworld and say he's suffered a terrible loss.
"Oh, so impulsive, so impulsive!"
Kuro shook his head. "Why the hell didn't I just tell that flamingo to do an assassination and take down a few members of the Charlotte family? Why did I have to do it myself? It was too much of a stunt..."
"What, the Float Fruit gave me the 'float' personality side effect? I wasn't like this before!" He stroked his chin, pondering.
"But... after this fight, I hope Big Mom won't come after me."
Kuro snapped his index finger at the rock in the sky, and the rock split open, revealing ships and weapons inside, which then connected to the island and transformed back into a continent.
Hmm, it's shrunk a bit...
Kuro patted his pocket, pulled out the permanent pointer, and... well, it was shattered to pieces.
The attack was so severe that the object was shattered beyond recognition.
Fortunately, I had put the Den Den Mushi in my pocket beforehand.
He opened the cover on his watch and dialed the number directly.
After ringing for a while, the Den Den Mushi transformed into a cute little creature with big eyes and its mouth still chewing on something.
"Hello, is this Kuro? How are you? Are you alright?"
The Den Den Mushi stopped chewing and asked urgently.
"Hurry up and pick me up, stop eating there," Kuro said, rolling his eyes.
"Where are you?"
"In the sky."
"..."
The Den Den Mushi paused for a moment, then continued, "Where is up in the sky?"
"Below the atmosphere."
"Hey, Kuro!" came the angry voice from the other end.
"Wait for me to rest for a bit. I'm going down to check. How the hell am I supposed to know where I am? Wait for my news! Get the ships moving, send a few more. While you're at it, find Storobelli in Marineford and get him to send some out too. More ships, more safety. If you're coming over, I'm injured."
After saying that, Kuro hung up the phone, then lay back with his limbs spread wide and slowly closed his eyes.
Fighting at this level is truly exhausting.
...
Cake Island.
Charlotte Linlin descended, released the thunderclouds, and stood alone on the island.
Seeing this, Perospero quickly ran over and asked, "Mom, are you alright?"
"Perospero!"
Charlotte Linlin's eyes were bloodshot at this moment.
Yes, Mom!
Perospero's body trembled, and cold sweat poured down his back.
Oh no!
Mom is going to punish him!
“Go gather everyone, get the ship moving, and head to Sabaody. I’m going to find that brat!” Charlotte Linlin said through gritted teeth.
“Mom, this matter... wait, what brat are you looking for?” Perolipero was stunned.
"Lucille Kuro!" Charlotte Linlin roared, "I won't let him get away with this, absolutely not!"
In her excitement, the wounds on her shoulders bled even more.
“Mom, you’re still injured, and if we go out rashly, we’ll be targeted by the navy.” Perospero instinctively refused.
"I don't care, I'm going to kill that brat right now!!" Charlotte Linlin's eyes were bloodshot, almost covering her entire pupil.
"Mom, let's postpone it for now."
Katakuri then walked over with Flampe in his arms and said, "You're injured. If you get out of this state, we might not be able to achieve our goal. Lucilfer Kuro took two hits from you, so his injuries are probably more serious than yours. In the end, this was a mistake in our strategy, and we've done enough. The most important thing now is to rebuild Totto Land."
