One Piece: General Xuanming, Defeat the New World

It was not until he saw the golden light disappear at the end of the sky that Katakuri let down his guard and slowly loosened his five fingers that were clenched on the handle of the trident.

"Cracker, take Armand to treatment."

Katakuri spoke after glancing at the wreckage around him.

"Okay brother, I'll go right away."

The giant cookie man nodded, and his big cookie hand, which was as big as a chair, gently lifted up Armand. Almost visibly, he wrapped Armand in a fist of cookie shell to prevent Armand, who was already seriously injured, from suffering secondary damage.

Armand was hit by Borsalino's kick. With his reaction speed, he almost used his body to resist, without even using his domineering power. And it was precisely because of this that Armand's current situation was not optimistic.

After ensuring Armand's protection, Cracker was about to sail away when he heard Katakuri speak.

"Forget it, Owen, Perospero, let's leave together."

Katakuri said as he jumped to the bow, still scanning the surroundings with his alert observation Haki. He couldn't guarantee whether Borsalino would come back.

It was not until this time that Katakuri had the mind to carefully examine the surrounding battlefield. The dilapidated hull, the sea water dyed light red, and the floating corpses all over the sea all demonstrated the horror of this attack.

After completing the inspection, Katakuri decisively set sail, taking his brothers towards the nearest medical island, while his own glutinous rice ball, Homitz, was left by Katakuri on the Cake Island.

Although the surface buildings of the entire Cake Island have been almost destroyed after Borsalino's saturation bombing just now, the foundation of the core buildings of Cake Island is still there.

On this basis, if you want to repair Cake Island in the future, it will cost much less than choosing a new location to rebuild it.

……

"All in all, that's what it is."

"Then you, Katakuri-nii, arrived and successfully expelled Borsalino."

The pirate ship cut through the water and sped forward. On the deck, Charlotte Owen briefly explained to Katakuri what had just happened.

When he heard that Borsalino had successfully captured Charlotte Brulee alive, Katakuri's hands hidden in his sleeves clenched tightly again, and resentment and anger continued to rise in Katakuri's heart.

"Owen, continue..."

But at the same time, Katakuri tried his best to keep his facial expression and mind calm, and signaled Owen to continue describing.

It was not until Owen described everything that happened before he arrived that Katakuri spoke.

"That is to say, Cake Island had already become like this before you arrived."

"By the time you arrived, Borsalino had already captured Sister Brulee and wreaked havoc on Cake Island."

Owen nodded, indicating that this was indeed the case.

Seeing Owen's reaction, Katakuri let out a long sigh and his expression kept changing.

For Katakuri, family and kinship are the most important things. Every child in the Charlotte family is the person Katakuri cares about the most.

It can be said that Katakuri is one of the few pirates who attaches great importance to family ties.

Katakuri's actions are both good and evil, but most of the time his cruel methods are to prevent his brothers and sisters from suffering unnecessary harm.

If possible, Katakuri is willing to face the thorns alone and leave the prosperity to his younger brothers and sisters.

When he heard that Brulee was captured alive by Borsalino, for a moment Katakuri really wanted to abandon everything and ride the Earth Dragon to chase Borsalino, but his remaining sanity stopped him from acting.

Even if Borsalino still has Brulee with him, he still needs to estimate Brulee's ability to bear it, but the unparalleled speed of the user of the Pika Pika Nomi Fruit is not something that a non-speed type like Homitz can catch up with.

What's more, the main battlefield of Sengoku and his mother is not far away. With Borsalino's speed, he can definitely reach Sengoku's warships before he can catch up.

The frontal battlefield is not like here. As one of the few members of the Charlotte family, Katakuri has personally seen Charlotte Linlin's full-strength attack. Being able to be his mother's opponent, Katakuri does not think he has the ability to do anything.

At the same time, Katakuri was also unable to confirm whether the navy had deployed other powerful men around Cake Island.

Brulee has been captured by Borsalino, and Katakuri does not want to put his surviving brothers and sisters in danger just for the sake of a "what if" gamble.

What's more, Charlotte Brulee was only captured alive by Borsalino, not killed on the spot. After the war, if we pay some benefits, we should be able to get Brulee back.

This is also an important reason why Katakuri still remains rational.

……

On the front battlefield, a streak of light flashed across the sky and disappeared at the end of the horizon.

Unlike what Katakuri thought, Borsalino did not choose to return directly to the Sengoku warship. Instead, he relied on the mobility of the Pika Pika Nomi to make a long-distance raid and temporarily went to the nearest naval base.

After all, Borsalino is not stupid. He just raided someone's home and returned to the warship with his human daughter in his arms. Borsalino is really afraid that Charlotte Linlin will abandon Roger and go all out against him.

After all, with Charlotte Linling's physique, it would be no big deal if she was slapped twice by Zhan Guo, but if she was caught by Charlotte Linling, she would be in danger of death.

Although he can barely coordinate on the top battlefield by relying on his speed, Borsalino does not think that he is capable of confronting Charlotte Linlin head-on just by doing so.

Therefore, in this situation, the best choice is not to pass by Charlotte Linlin, but to walk away and come back to find Zhan Guo after the war is over.

At this time, on the front battlefield, the situation of Roger's pirate group was definitely not very good.

For Charlotte Linling, compared to Sengoku, a top-level combat-capable mythical beast who had just joined and was in peak condition, Roger, the sickly guy, was easier to control.

At the same time, Zhan Guo was also afraid of Charlotte Linlin's steel balloon. In a battle of this magnitude, it was impossible to determine life and death, which meant that Zhan Guo's attack would be difficult for Charlotte Linlin to break through.

It was for this reason that both sides tacitly focused their attention on the already exhausted Roger, but this made life difficult for Roger.

Whether it was Sengoku's shock wave or Charlotte Linlin's strange and bizarre homicides, they were attacks that Roger had to use all his strength to resist.

And every time he attacks with all his strength, Roger will suffer hidden injuries.

That was exactly why, just half a day after Zhan Guo arrived, the blood had completely dyed the corners of Roger's mouth red, and he would cough up blood violently every once in a while.

There were even some fragments of internal organs mixed in with the blood foam that was spit out.
