Chapter 193 : Big Mom's Anger?
Revolutionary Army!
In this moment... within the headquarters of the Revolutionary Army, numerous revolutionary soldiers stand alongside the commanders of the five major armies and others.
A picture unfurled before them, leaving all dumbfounded, particularly Betty and her comrades!
Moments ago, emotions ran high as they confronted the formidable foe, Katakuri.
What strategy could Luffy employ to emerge victorious?
Though Luffy's prowess surpassed their expectations,
they believed Katakuri, as the imperial deputy, posed an insurmountable challenge for Luffy!
Yet, in this instant...
Luffy defied expectations with his actions!
"What... He's emerged victorious! ?"
"How is this possible..."
"It's utterly unbelievable, astounding!"
Their shock engulfed them entirely.
The image in the sky etched itself into their minds. Nestled amidst the astonishment, Lindbergh observed with a mix of shock and overwhelming joy!
"Luffy triumphed... it's remarkable!"
In this moment, the tension and apprehension that once gripped his heart vanished entirely.
What remained was heartfelt congratulations and jubilation for Luffy. A little distance away, Dragon watched, his countenance betraying little change.
Yet, the widened eyes bespoke the astonishment at Luffy's unexpected victory.
Naturally, as Luffy's father... witnessing his son vanquish such a formidable enemy filled his heart with joy.
After a while... a smile graced Dragon's face.
With a faint upturn of his lips, his heart unburdened, he turned and strode towards his abode.
The Whitebeard Pirates!
All members of the Whitebeard Pirates were equally affected. The image was nothing short of staggering!
Marco, Jozi, Bista, and numerous other captains, as Yonko Pirates, comprehended better than anyone else...
the strength of Katakuri!
As the Big Mom Pirates' right hand man, he indisputably ranked among the most formidable entities on the seas!
Even Vista, Jozu, and the others acknowledged they were no match for Katakuri!
Perhaps only Marco, the !st Division Captain of the Whitebeard Pirates, could rival him!
But facing such a formidable foe was a challenge even they couldn't overcome!
And now... he had been defeated by Luffy!
Though the battle appeared immensely arduous, even profoundly tragic! Yet, it was undeniable that Luffy emerged victorious in the end! He vanquished the formidable enemy and once again wrought a miracle!
After what seemed like an eternity, Marco, Vista, Jozu, and the others, who were in a daze, slowly turned to Ace, speaking with profound emotion.
"Ace, who would have thought your brother would grow to be so mighty?"
"It's truly unbelievable that even the undefeated Katakuri fell to him!"
"Unbeknownst to us, Ace's younger brother has far surpassed our expectations!"
"Yes, with his prowess, I fear even we cannot match him. Perhaps only Marco could engage him in combat."
Even the immensely formidable Whitebeard, one of the Four Emperors, couldn't help but express his admiration in this moment.
"Ace, your brother... he's exceptional!"
"Now he's more than worthy to be recognized as a powerhouse, perhaps even more..."
"To contend for the title of King of the Pirates!"
Listening to the accolades from his companions and Whitebeard, Ace couldn't help but break into a radiant smile.
After all, Luffy was his younger brother, and witnessing his growth to such heights filled him with immense pride.
Surpassing the expectations of many!
And to defeat such a formidable foe, nobody felt happier than him! He was overflowing with pride!
"Luffy, I'm overjoyed to witness your growth to this extent!"
"It appears you've surpassed me as an older brother in the future!"
"You've matured, no longer the mischievous boy who once relied on my guidance as a child..."
Impossible!
"This can't be happening!"
"How could Brother Katakuri be defeated?"
"This must be a lie. That Straw Hat brat must have employed deceit to defeat Katakuri-nii!"
In that moment, countless admirers and siblings of Katakuri from all corners gazed at the sky, their expressions filled with horror.
They couldn't accept the outcome of the battle. It seemed inconceivable!
For everyone, Katakuri was the epitome of perfection!
The pinnacle of strength!
How could such a flawless and invincible figure be defeated?
And if defeat was inevitable, how could it be at the hands of Straw Hat?
It must be a deception, or perhaps... that boy used dishonorable and underhanded tactics in this battle!
The live broadcast failed to air, resulting in Katakuri's defeat in the end!
Ministers from countless nations, along with numerous younger siblings of Katakuri, couldn't accept this outcome!
Even Big Mom gazed at the sky with fury...
"Straw Hat... actually bested my proudest son?"
"He truly deserves to perish..."
Despite Big Mom's reaction not being as severe as other ministers from various nations, those acquainted with Big Mom understood well that she teetered on the brink of rage at that moment!
As Prometheus and Zeus expanded above, the inhabitants of Whole cake Island trembled in sheer terror!
At this juncture, they no longer cared about the result of Luffy and Katakuri's battle. Instead, their concern lay in Big Mom potentially succumbing to her fury and wreaking havoc once more?
Should that happen, the entire cake would likely be ruined once again. In a corner, Katakuri leaned against the wall, gazing skyward.
His demeanor stood in stark contrast to others!
His countenance remained remarkably composed, the scarf shrouding his mouth concealing any trace of emotion...
Yet deep within, he acknowledged his defeat at Luffy's hands on the screen, but in reality, he embraced this outcome!
For having witnessed the entire spectacle, he understood clearly that Luffy was a formidable individual!
Not merely someone he respected and acknowledged, but a powerful force!
It came as no surprise that Luffy could overcome him!
After all, this lad Luffy... possessed remarkable combat prowess and an unparalleled capacity for growth, and most notably, his seemingly frail physique harbored immense strength!
Despite being knocked down time and again by Katakuri himself, Luffy consistently rose to his feet!
In every aspect, he outshone Katakuri.
"What a worthy enemy. Given the opportunity..."
"I earnestly wish to confront you in person, not merely exist within a screen."
