Chapter 337: Big Mom Returns! Big Mom Pirate Crew and Whitebeard Pirate Crew!

A large amount of water wrapped Cracker completely, forming a water ball with a diameter of four meters. The sudden sense of suffocation and the feeling of being wrapped in water made Cracker panic all of a sudden.

Because he knew very well that once his body was soaked in water as a Devil Fruit ability user, he would definitely be in a predicament.

But the next second… Cracker felt something was wrong again, because he found that he didn't feel weak at all.

The water this fishman created was a bit strange!

Although he was full of doubts in his heart, Cracker knew that he was in the process of fighting and didn't have time to think too much.

Cracker snorted coldly, a string of bubbles gushed out of his nostrils, and he saw him clap his hands expressionlessly.

Snap!

A biscuit soldier suddenly appeared behind Kisame, raised a very sharp great sword, and chopped it down at Kisame's head.

Kisame frowned, he quickly dispelled the Water Prison Technique, and immediately dodged this attack.

"Strange…" Kisame murmured to himself, "I once heard Pops say that what Devil Fruit ability users fear most is water. Wait…"

Kisame suddenly realized. He stared at Cracker in front of him, his right hand that had been crushed was quickly recovering, Kisame thoughtfully, "Right… I understand."

Kisame remembered that when Cracker saw the seawater being manipulated by him, he seemed to be very shocked.

Perhaps what he fears is not the water created by Ninjutsu, but seawater?

That's right, if Devil Fruit ability users are afraid of all water, wouldn't Pops also be restrained by Water Release ninjas?

But Pops has never been restrained by Water Release in the ninja world.

Even the seawater in the ninja world doesn't work for Pops.

This means… only the water from Pops' hometown can work on Devil Fruit?

Kisame suddenly realized.

In just a few seconds, his wrist had fully recovered, he showed a sneer, "Cracker, I understand."

A sudden sentence made Cracker a bit confused about what this fishman understood.

"Water Release: Great Exploding Water Colliding Wave!!!"

Kisame quickly formed seals with both hands, and three huge water dragons suddenly surged up from the sea surface behind him, each water dragon was as huge as a sea beast.

The three water dragons roared and rushed towards Cracker.

Cracker's face turned black again, he was not afraid of this fishman fighting him in close combat. 

In close combat, Cracker was fully confident that he could defeat this fishman.

And with the "lesson" from before, he believed he would never get hurt again.

The problem was that this fishman seemed to want to play this trick of controlling seawater again

Cracker gritted his teeth and raised his "Pretzel", and in just a second, he slashed out three times.

Those three water dragons were instantly cut open by his slash before they even touched him.

The cut water dragons bypassed Cracker and hit the dock heavily.

Boom! Boom! Boom!

The dock under his feet trembled violently.

Cracker was suddenly startled.

He hurriedly turned around and looked down, only to see that when those three cut water dragons fell on the dock, they actually blasted the ground into pits!

At the edge of the pit, there were several ferocious cracks spreading, covering half of the dock at a speed visible to the naked eye.

A few fine cracks also appeared under Cracker's feet, and a little seawater was faintly seeping out from the cracks.

"Damn it! This guy wants to drop me into the sea!"

Cracker finally couldn't hold back the expression on his face, his face was full of shock.

The next second.

With a loud noise, half of the dock collapsed directly, including the position where Cracker was standing!

Kisame's position also collapsed.

But he stood on the sea with both feet, and in this process, he had already completed another Ninjutsu.

"Water Release: Eight-Sided Water Pillar Technique!!!"

Huge water pillars surged up quickly on the sea surface, forming an octagon, enclosing Cracker.

Cracker, who was about to fall into the sea, had to hurriedly clap his hands, and a platform made of biscuits floated on the sea.

But the biscuits that touched the seawater were softening at a speed visible to the naked eye, and half of Cracker's foot was soaked in seawater.

When he looked up, water pillars from eight different directions were already coming towards him.

"Ring·Wave·Pretzel!!!"

Cracker twisted his waist and slashed out with all his strength, a 360-degree slash, instantly blasting the Ninjutsu.

"Huh? Below!"

Suddenly, Cracker's pupils shrank, and he hurriedly jumped up with the help of the biscuit platform that was about to completely soften.

Kisame's hands just passed through the softened biscuit platform.

If Cracker hadn't reacted quickly, his feet might have been caught by Kisame, and then dragged into the sea by Kisame.

"Damn fishman, you're really despicable!"

Cracker, who was jumping in mid-air, decisively clapped his hands wildly, and one after another biscuit greatsword appeared beside him.

Hundreds of biscuit greatswords fell towards the sea below.

Trying to attack Kisame hiding in the sea in this way.

Unfortunately, Kisame in the sea is faster than on land!

He easily dodged all the biscuit greatswords.

Kisame looked up and saw Cracker falling down, and Kisame probably understood that this guy couldn't use "Geppo".

...

While Kisame and Cracker were entangled in a tense fight, a huge pirate ship had already returned to the waters of Totto Land.

This pirate ship is indeed the main ship of the Big Mom Pirates!

The reason why they came back so quickly was because the Big Mom Pirates had just organized manpower last night to seize the territory of the Whitebeard Pirates.

After receiving an urgent call for help from the officers under Cracker's command, and learning about the specific situation...

The Big Mom Pirates were scared and returned quickly.

"Is it true or false, Cracker wouldn't be lying to us, would he?"

A minister of the Big Mom Pirates was dumbfounded: "Didn't Whitebeard already die? How could he appear on Biscuit Island? The news of his death... has already spread all over the sea, right? It can't be that the news reports are all fake, right?"

Katakuri, one of the three Sweet Commanders of the Big Mom Pirates, was frowning and looking at the waters of Totto Land ahead.

He said, "True or false, we'll know when we see it. Cracker is loyal to the family, I don't think he would lie about this."

Katakuri spoke up, and the others didn't dare to doubt Cracker anymore.

"Mama mama!"

Charlotte Linlin, the captain of the Big Mom Pirates, also known as Big Mom, let out a string of harsh laughter, muttering to herself, "If I make a wasted trip, I'll be very angry, Cracker boy! Mama!"

The huge pirate ship returned to the World Sea, without making any further stops, and headed straight for Biscuit Island.

...

An hour has passed.

Cracker, through constantly creating biscuit platforms, had to keep himself from falling into the sea, and also had to deal with Kisame hiding in the sea.

This made him very annoyed, he wished he could pull out that fishman and cut him into sashimi!

Kisame also felt an unprecedented fatigue, Cracker's physical strength far exceeded Kisame's imagination.

If using the Devil Fruit ability is equivalent to a ninja using Ninjutsu, then Cracker almost uses a Ninjutsu every few seconds.

After more than an hour in this situation, Kisame found that Cracker's physical strength was still very abundant.

Not only was he strong like a monster, but his physical strength was also exaggerated like a monster.

On the contrary, it was Kisame himself...

Even if he was called a tailless tailed beast, with an extremely majestic chakra, and Samehada, this power bank... his physical strength has a limit.

Kisame felt that even if he were to single out a tailed beast, he wouldn't be so tired.

He rose from the sea and stood on the sea surface, confronting Cracker who was standing on a biscuit platform.

Kisame was all wet, and he couldn't tell whether it was sweat or seawater.

"I'm almost at my limit, Cracker."

Kisame's smile did not fade, he frankly admitted that his physical strength was not as good as Cracker's: "You are strong, really strong."

Cracker's mouth twitched, uninterested in Kisame's set: "Fishman, what? Want to admit defeat?!"

Although he really wanted to cut Kisame into sashimi in his heart, but with Whitebeard watching closely, Cracker really didn't dare to do so.

Kisame laughed: "Unless it's the moment I fall, otherwise I won't admit defeat. I just want to remind you, Cracker, next... I'm going to fight for my life."

Bang!

Kisame's feet splashed up several meters high of water spray, he instantly appeared in front of Cracker, and kicked Cracker's abdomen hard.

Cracker remained expressionless, easily dodged Kisame's kick with Observation Haki, and unceremoniously slashed at Kisame with a sword.

Kisame was cut in half by the big sword, Cracker spat: "Another clone?"

He swung his sword back and slashed!

The Kisame that suddenly appeared behind him was also cut in half by a sword.

Cracker sneered: "I've said that the same tricks won't work on me! Fishman! I won't give you a chance to touch me again!"

Whoosh! Whoosh!

Two shurikens flew towards Cracker, but were easily blocked by Cracker.

After Cracker remade a biscuit platform, he stabbed a sword into the sea below: "Stab·Wave·Pretzel!!!"

Boom!!!

The entire sea surface under his feet exploded, and this blasted Cracker himself dozens of meters high.

Cracker's Observation Haki keenly felt that a figure was also blasted away by this attack.

The corner of his mouth twitched slightly: "Caught you, fishman!"

He actually made a biscuit platform in mid-air and ran towards that side.

The effect of the fruit ability is almost maximized.

"Slash·Pretzel!!!"

When he was only a few dozen meters away from Kisame, Cracker slashed across the air with a sword.

The slash with strong wind pressure swept across Kisame's body in an instant.

Puff--

A shocking blood flower burst on Kisame's chest, a very hideous wound deep enough to see the bone, Kisame spat out a mouthful of blood and fell heavily into the sea.

"Cough cough cough..."

Kisame lay on the surface of the sea, his blood staining the surrounding seawater red. He murmured to himself, "If it weren't for the timely use of a defensive Ninjutsu and a piece of iron, I would have been cut in half, right?"

Clap!

A crisp clap sounded in his ear.

A biscuit platform appeared in front of Kisame.

Cracker landed, the tip of his sword pointing directly at Kisame's throat.

He laughed heartily, "Tsk, is this the level of an executive of the Whitebeard Pirate Crew?"

He felt that he had earned a lot of face for the Big Mom Pirate Crew.

"Hmm? What is this?"

Cracker suddenly caught sight of a strange scroll floating towards him on the sea.

He also saw the scroll suddenly unfold, with some strange symbols on it that he couldn't understand.

Also at this moment!

A strong premonition from Observation Haki made Cracker break out in a cold sweat all over.

"Not good!" Cracker suddenly realized that there was something wrong with this scroll!

"Hehe... cough cough! Cracker, I am a ninja, it's normal for me to use some underhanded tactics." Kisame also laughed.

The moment his words fell, a huge water ball emerged from the scroll, enveloping Cracker completely.

Trigger Trap: Water Prison!!!

Cracker was both angry and annoyed, he didn't expect to fall for the same trick again!

But just as he wanted to struggle out of this water ball, a feeling of weakness made his face change again.

Wait...

There's something wrong with this water!

"When I was hiding in the sea earlier, I took the opportunity to seal some seawater in this trap scroll. Cough cough..."

Although Kisame's tone was very weak, he let out a victorious laugh, "Ha, when I took your sword, it was to make you relax your guard, Cracker!"

"Although I don't know much about Observation Haki, I also know... Observation Haki can only play its greatest role when a person is most calm."

"Cracker... after seeing me seriously injured, your feelings of triumph, ecstasy, and contempt... these emotions have already filled your brain, haven't they?"

Kisame paused, and continued, "Even if Observation Haki still predicts danger, it may already be too late! Ha!"

Cracker stared wide-eyed, wishing he could swallow Kisame whole, so angry that his lungs were about to explode.

This damn fishman, actually played mind games with him during the fight!

And he was fooled!

He fell for the other party's trick!

But that feeling of powerlessness had already made Cracker unable to hold the sword in his hand.

As he unwillingly let go, Pretzel fell into the sea, and the intense feeling of suffocation made him keep rolling his eyes.

A minute later, Cracker's struggle was already flailing, but unfortunately, this struggle had no strength, at most it was just weakly waving his limbs.

Two minutes later, bubbles kept coming out of his mouth, and the struggle became smaller and smaller.

He couldn't help but open his mouth, and seawater began to pour into his nostrils and mouth.

Three minutes later, Cracker passed out on the spot.

The water ball that trapped him also dispersed.

Cracker could no longer rise!

...

"A narrow victory, a hard-fought victory."

Kakashi sighed with relief, "If it weren't for Kisame grasping some information about this person during the fight, and the other party didn't know Kisame's information, Kisame might have lost here today."

Witnessing this battle between Kisame and Cracker, Kakashi dared not underestimate the strong people in this world.

And Whitebeard, who saw all this, also smiled, "Gurara! As expected of my son!"

But at this moment...

A huge pirate ship appeared in the far distance behind Moby Dick!
