Thud! Thud! Thud!
Heavy footsteps echoed from behind.
Charlotte Linlin, the one and only Big Mom, had arrived—her face twisted in fury as she walked forward.
All she saw was a wasteland of monsters, rubble, and corpses.
The nation she'd painstakingly built, Totto Land, was devastated. Her rage contorted her face even more.
"What the hell is this?! Where did all these invaders come from?! What are these things?!"
Big Mom roared in fury, her voice thunderous across the battlefield.
"Mama, we don't know either! They just suddenly appeared!"
Oven rushed over, answering anxiously.
"Suddenly appeared? You think I'll buy that crap?! What the hell were you all doing?!"
Big Mom glared at him, and the sheer pressure of her gaze nearly sent Oven stumbling.
"Tch, I'll deal with you all later—after I wipe out these freaks."
As she spoke, souls from all directions began flowing into her body.
This was her ability—to extract the souls of those gripped by fear and make them her own.
With monsters running rampant and panic spreading, countless people were drowning in terror—making it easy for Big Mom to absorb their souls.
With each soul consumed, Big Mom's body grew larger. Her Haki surged violently, shaking the air. The pressure was so overwhelming even her children—like Oven—could hardly stand. Some nearly passed out.
"Disgusting monsters! Not even worth collecting!"
"Prometheus! Zeus! Napoleon!!"
At her shout, her three homies—the flame, the thundercloud, and the living sword—merged together with a menacing grin.
They transformed into a massive flaming thunder sword, radiating terrifying energy.
"Heavenly Roaring Blade!!"
Wielding her new weapon, Big Mom slashed violently—releasing a massive arc of lightning-and-fire sword energy that vaporized every monster it touched.
Even monsters several times larger than her couldn't withstand it—the blade cut through them like butter.
But no matter how many she killed, the Blood Pool continued to spawn more.
"What's with this damned pit?! Stop spewing crap into my territory!!"
Big Mom roared again, charging into the horde to attack the spawning monsters.
High in the sky, on the back of Raijin Form Sengoku, the three Admirals and Garp watched nervously through their screens.
"Big Mom's in play. If she manages to take control of that thing, it'll be a disaster."
Aokiji's expression was grim.
"Damn right. Whitebeard was already bad enough—another one like her? No thanks."
Garp growled darkly.
"But some of these monsters are easily Four Emperors level. And there are stronger ones still to come. Can we even deal with this ourselves?"
Kizaru voiced the concern on everyone's mind.
From the screen, they saw creatures capable of fighting Big Mom head-on—and there were many.
"Relax. Leave those monsters to me. With the Ox Talisman, I've got more than enough strength to handle them!"
Garp said confidently. The Ox Talisman boosted his strength hundreds of times—enough to give him over 100,000 battle power by Dragon Ball standards.
"Oi! Sengoku! Hurry up already!"
Garp banged on Sengoku's head.
"I'm going as fast as I can! Any faster and we'll lose people off the back!"
Sengoku barked back, clearly annoyed.
—
Back in Totto Land—
Empowered Big Mom was going wild, cleaving through wave after wave of monsters with her Heavenly Roaring Blade.
"Come on, is that all you've got?! You dare invade my Totto Land and bring this weak crap?!"
One swing of her blade released a shockwave that vaporized hundreds of monsters.
She spun and thrust forward, stabbing a massive snake-like monster through the mouth—and slicing its head clean off.
"That's Mama for you!! Unstoppable!! If she's here, these monsters are NOTHING!!"
Perospero shouted with excitement, unable to contain his awe.
"That's right! This is Four Emperors' territory! Don't dare look down on Mama!"
Smoothie clenched her fists, eyes gleaming with determination.
THOOM!!!
Suddenly, the Blood Pool erupted—a violent column of crimson liquid shot into the sky like a waterfall crashing upward.
The strange sound drew everyone's attention.
Wooooooh…
A deep, guttural growl rumbled from within the surge of blood.
As the liquid splashed back down, a shape began to emerge.
A massive, purple-skinned, crater-riddled creature with grey-brown fangs and glowing green eyes slowly rose from the pit.
When the last of the liquid fell away, the creature's 300-meter-wide head was fully visible, followed by a massive neck of the same length.
Its head and neck alone were over 600 meters tall—and its full body hadn't even emerged yet.
"W-What… what IS that thing?!"
Big Mom's pupils contracted sharply as she stared.
She had slain monsters far larger than herself before—but this one…
The moment it appeared, her body trembled uncontrollably.
A feeling she hadn't experienced in years surged within her—cold, invasive, and all-consuming.
It was fear.
Her instincts screamed at her that this creature was beyond her.
Far beyond.
"No… NO! I'm Big Mom! I'm a Four Emperor! There's no way something stronger than me exists!!"
Rejecting the warning in her soul, Big Mom charged forward, refusing to surrender her pride.
"DIIIIIEEEE!!!"
She channeled every ounce of her Armament and Conqueror's Haki into her blade, condensing it until the Heavenly Roaring Blade crackled like a star on the verge of exploding.
With all her might, she unleashed a cataclysmic slash, stronger than anything she had ever delivered.
The resulting shockwave tore across the battlefield like a hurricane—flattening everything in its path. Even monsters 500 meters tall were ripped apart on contact.
But Big Mom wasn't done.
She slashed again.
And again.
And again.
Each blow shook the world, each wave of energy blasting apart terrain and enemies alike.
She threw everything she had at the towering creature.
And what did the monster do?
It opened its fang-filled jaws, wide and unflinching—and swallowed the attacks whole.
Every slash, every shockwave—all of them entered its gaping maw.
Then it closed its mouth with a calm clack.
And with a subtle gulping motion—it ate all of Big Mom's full-powered strikes.
