But Big Mom's face didn't so much as flinch.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Her blazing eyes stayed locked on the clouds—on the figure of Tachibana Kyūjō, standing far above.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>She looked at him not as an opponent… but as prey.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>And then the slash struck her directly in the chest.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>A deafening clang rang out like steel striking steel—no, not steel. It was her body. Her chest absorbed the impact without so much as a stagger.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Kyūjō's massive lightning slash had run its course. The glowing arc finally faded into the air, vanishing like a phantom between sky and sea—its unfinished will dissolved, unfulfilled.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>— — —\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Her head still wreathed in fire, her pupils glowing blood-red, Charlotte Linlin—Big Mom—truly resembled a demon descended from hell.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Hey, Marine brat! How long are you gonna hide up there?!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Get down here and fight me!!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Her roar echoed across the ocean, shaking the skies. A wave of Haoshoku Haki surged outward like a physical force, tearing apart the clouds in front of Kyūjō as if they were mist.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Every pirate in her fleet could now see him—clear as day.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Yet Kyūjō only offered a calm, faint smile.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Without acknowledging her Haki or her rage, he turned his back and walked casually through the sky with Geppo, as though none of this mattered in the slightest.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>No retaliation.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>No reply.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Big Mom's fury and curses were ignored like wind.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>That slash earlier? It had only one purpose:\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>To lure her away.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>They were still too close to Malt Island—no more than a few dozen kilometers.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Far too close for a battle between monsters like them.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Even the shockwaves from their clash could generate tsunamis that would wipe the island off the map.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>And Big Mom—being a Devil Fruit user—relied on her Homies like Zeus to fly. When her stamina ran low, she'd eventually need to touch solid ground.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>And what was the nearest piece of land?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Malt Island.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>If their battle continued here, that island would be reduced to rubble.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>And as its current guardian, Kyūjō would never allow that.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>— — —\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Watching the Marine brat slash at her and then fly off like nothing happened—\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Big Mom. Was. Furious.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>With a snarl, she yanked a chunk of cloud from Zeus's body and twisted it mercilessly.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"ZEUS!! You better chase that brat down RIGHT NOW!!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Or I'll tear you apart myself!!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The thundercloud yelped in pain, tears welling in his cartoonishly large eyes.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But he didn't dare complain.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Trembling, he stabilized his form and surged through the sky, carrying Big Mom's enormous body after Kyūjō at full speed.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Yes, it hurt.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But if he let Big Mom fall?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He wouldn't even live long enough to regret it.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>So Zeus endured. He gritted his cloudy face and flew faster than ever before, shouting between pained sobs:\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Ma-Mama! Don't worry, I'll catch him! I promise! I swear!!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Big Mom snorted, finally calming—if only slightly.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But just moments later… her face darkened again.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"…Why does it feel like we're getting farther away from him?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>— — —\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Far ahead, Kyūjō had been quietly listening the entire time.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>With Infinity Perception, he could hear everything—even the tragic sobs of Zeus behind him.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He gave a small smile and, in silent pity, offered two seconds of mourning for the poor cloud.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Then, out of mercy…\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He slowed down—just a little.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>— — —\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Eventually, he reached an uninhabited island—silent and still, untouched by man.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Kyūjō touched down first, landing lightly in the center.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Unlike Big Mom, who could fly using her Homies, Kyūjō needed solid ground beneath his feet to truly fight.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He could fight in the air using Geppo—but at most, for 12 hours straight. And that was with full support from his enhanced Breathing Technique: Version 3.0.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>For long-distance travel, sure—Geppo worked fine.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But in a real battle?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>On solid ground, he could fight almost endlessly.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>His stamina, his recovery, his endurance—everything would rise to peak efficiency.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He could use a strategy he called:\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Break Them Slowly Until They Beg.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He didn't mind battles that lasted days.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Ten days? Two weeks? Depending on the opponent—it was possible.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But if he stayed airborne against someone like Big Mom?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He'd have to finish the fight quickly.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>And that… wasn't realistic.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Someone like Big Mom? You don't defeat her in a few minutes.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Even Edward Newgate—Whitebeard, the man once known as the strongest in the world, would have been locked in a drawn-out war against another Yonko like her.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The title of Yonko wasn't just for show.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>They were the emperors of the seas.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Their strength—absolute.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Sure, power levels varied between them. Some were stronger than others. Some were more skilled in certain aspects.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But to completely crush any of them in a short battle?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Impossible.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Unless… maybe Imu-sama—that mysterious being at the top of the world—intervened.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>(Are the Gorosei stronger? Who knows...)\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>— — —\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Kyūjō's thoughts were interrupted by a thunderous quake.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>DOOOM!!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The ground trembled.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>She had arrived.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Big Mom's massive frame crashed down onto the island like a falling meteor. With Napoleon gripped in her giant hand, she leapt off Zeus's back and stomped onto the earth.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Without a word, she raised her greatsword and brought it crashing down on Kyūjō!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Kyūjō reacted instantly.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He unsheathed his blade—\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Black Sword: Thunder Dragon\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>—and swung upward to meet her strike!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>CLAAAANG!!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>A violent shockwave erupted from their clash.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The island shook. Trees were ripped from the earth. The very terrain cracked and split for kilometers in every direction.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But Kyūjō stood firm.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He kept the ground beneath him intact.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>His obsidian blade locked against Napoleon's monstrous size.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Between their weapons, a tiny gap was visible.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The swords weren't even touching—only the air between them clashed.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>A test of pure, overwhelming force.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>— — —\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Big Mom growled.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>This Marine brat was actually matching her strike for strike?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>That pissed her off even more.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He was young. Too young. And yet… he wasn't backing down.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Looking at him up close, she suddenly cracked a wide, terrifying grin.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Mamamamama…\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Marine brat, you're stronger than I thought!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"How about this instead—why not leave the Marines?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"I could give you one… or two… or maybe more daughters to marry~\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"And if you want, you could even build your own little harem~\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>— — — — — — — — — — — — — — — —\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Join my Patreon here:\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>🔗 patreon.com\u002FFaaanzKun\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>✅ Enjoy 70+ chapters ahead of WebNovel\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>✅ Get 2 new chapters every day exclusively on Patreon\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>✅ Be the first to enjoy the new 3rd arc after One Piece before anyone else\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Let's keep this adventure alive, together chapter by chapter! 💖\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>— — — — — — — — — — — — — — — —\u003C\u002Fp>",1138,"2026-06-06T13:14:24.000Z",1,"novelbin.me","ea2e3c078d1679a534c78ed5e55040571ef78b9388d7ae56f3d4cd8d30c7c548","from-thunder-breathing-to-the-multiverse-chapter-201","from-thunder-breathing-to-the-multiverse-chapter-99",389,"https:\u002F\u002Fnovelzhen.com\u002Fimages\u002Fcovers\u002Ffrom-thunder-breathing-to-the-multiverse-cover.jpg"]
