27. Wedding Invitation! Irritable Big Brother Drought Jack!

"Others aside, this Vinsmoke... must be!"

Baron Egghead's words made everyone turn their heads.

If BIG Mom had specifically named Luffy or Sima Di, they could still accept it.

After all, BIG Mom is famously the "Cuckold Maniac," crazily seeking excellent men to impregnate before casually discarding them.

But Sanji?

Although his strength is not bad,

his bounty of 330 million Berries already says it all.

He is still far from it!

Only Sima Di in the scene revealed an expression of understanding.

It seems...

Sanji's father still chose to "marry into" the BIG Mom Pirates!

And once again, sacrificing Sanji, this "useless waste."

Sanji's father, Vinsmoke... allied with the BIG Mom Pirates.

Regarding this...

BIG Mom was obviously extremely interested!

The Vinsmoke Family controls the entire North Blue; they have powerful ships, advanced science and technology, and vast territories, yet they lack fixed territory.

Is this not the alliance partner countless people dream of?

Or rather...

A target for annexation!

As a woman who would unhesitatingly abandon her husband after becoming pregnant, and who uses even her own children as tools to grow stronger, how could BIG Mom ever stand on equal footing with a son-in-law's family?

From the very beginning,

BIG Mom was just thinking of annexing the Vinsmoke Family.

It is laughable that Judge still wants to become the world's strongest family?

Has he forgotten the Monkey D. family?

Both Judge and BIG Mom are playing their own calculations.

It is just...

No one asked for Sanji's opinion, nor the Straw Hat Pirates' opinion.

"Swish swish swish—"

A stack of red invitations was thrown out by Baron Egghead, one for each member of the Straw Hat Pirates.

Opening them to look,

it was precisely the "Vinsmoke... Wedding Invitation."

It left everyone in the Straw Hat Pirates completely stunned!

"Sanji, you... have a fiancée?" Usopp asked in confusion.

"And BIG Mom's daughter?" Chopper was shocked!

"Then why do you still chase after other girls?" Nami looked disdainful.

Sanji just frowned, casually tearing the wedding invitation into pieces.

He had already roughly guessed what was happening.

But...

The current Straw Hat Pirates are not the Straw Hat Pirates from the original story!

Emperors?

They are now fighting the Emperors!

"You bastards! Go back and tell BIG Mom and the Vinsmoke Family that I, Sanji... will definitely make an appearance."

Sanji's words twisted so sharply they twisted everyone present's waists.

"Hey hey hey! Don't use such a tough tone to say such a cowardly thing!" Usopp retorted.

Sanji had no reply, only looking at Sima Di with grievance.

Just now, it was Sima Di who used a mind link to make him agree to this marriage first.

That is how that abrupt turn happened.

Come to think of it,

Even though Sanji did not know why Sima Di made him do this, he still changed his words without hesitation, showing his trust in Sima Di.

After a brief moment of shock, Baron Egghead quickly adjusted his mindset.

That's more like it!

BIG Mom's fame, how could a small pirate crew that has only been sailing for a year oppose it?

"Alright then, as long as you hand over Caesar, the rest..."

"Baron Egghead, are you looking for death!" Jack roared angrily: "Caesar is someone the Beasts Pirates want! That blonde kid being given to you is already the limit!"

"That won't do, Caesar is someone Mom specifically requested. Soir!" Baron Egghead did not back down.

This made Jack's face turn completely black, and he directly punched through the air toward the BIG Mom Pirates!

"Then die!"

Good lord!

Truly a rash man daring to launch the first attack on Admiral Fujitora and Zunesha; he fights at the slightest provocation!

Baron Tamago had clearly heard of Jack's temper beforehand; his Observation Haki was on high alert, and he immediately sidestepped to dodge.

"Boom!"

A member behind Baron Tamago exploded violently, shattered directly by Jack's fist wind from a distance!

"Drought Jack! Are you starting a war between the Four Emperors? Soir!" Baron Tamago roared.

28. Can't fly yet still arrogant? Who else to scam but you!

"You... do not get too arrogant, Pirates!!!"

"Meteor Volcano!!!"

Ferocious lava engulfed all three pirate crews; the Straw Hat Pirates were hardly fazed thanks to their energy shield, but the other two pirate ships suffered greatly!

Though Jack is single-minded, he cares deeply for his own crew.

He immediately abandoned Baron Tamago, who had been crushed underfoot, and charged roaring toward the front of his own ship, using his thick-skinned body to intercept most of the assault.

But Baron Tamago's side, having lost their backbone, was in trouble!

If they were powerless against Drought Jack, what could they possibly do against a Marine Admiral's ultimate move?

Fortunately,

this ship was no ordinary vessel; it was a "Homie" created by BIG MOM's Soul-Soul Fruit. Infused with other people's souls, it possessed self-awareness and dodged vital spots by shifting slightly in place.

It barely avoided being sunk outright, but it was now teetering on the brink.

Sinking was only a matter of time.

"Chirp—"

Baron Tamago broke out of that pool of egg white, evolving into Viscount Chicks.

Baron Tamago is an "Egg-Egg Man" who ate the Egg-Egg Fruit; his body took on an egg structure, and after sustaining certain damage, he would break out of his shell to be reborn in a different form.

He has three forms in total: Baron Tamago → Viscount Chicks → Count Rooster.

Each rebirth multiplies his strength, provided he is not shattered while in egg form—though naturally, his defense also multiplies during that period.

It is quite an interesting Devil Fruit ability.

At least...

he withstood Sakazuki's assault, while Drought Jack, who had crushed him, was blasted into the sea depths.

His crew jumped into the sea like dumplings to rescue him.

—Although most of the Beasts Pirates are Zoan-type users, not everyone is a Devil Fruit user.

After all, Devil Fruits are extremely precious.
