Arceus in One Piece - Chapter 84
After Queen followed Arceus and the others out of there, Perospero and the others weren’t able to break free from the sea sand, which was too heavy and waterlogged for an average pirate to be able to power through.
For Perospero, the seawater above them was what restricted them, and it was when the rest of BIG-MOM came here that Perospero was dug out.
“Brother Peros…”
“Ah, Compert, it’s you. Isn’t mom coming over in person?”
Charlotte Compte, the eldest daughter of the Charlotte family, saw that the visitor was Compte, and Perospero was slightly relieved that it wasn’t Charlotte Ling Ling in person. At least it meant that her anger was still under control.
“Mom’s still mad, but don’t worry too much, Brother Peros. Your punishment won’t be too severe this time, probably.”
“What’s wrong?”
“Mom wanted to come herself, but she made a phone call to someone else, so it’s probably not up to us to deal with it anymore.
Besides, Totland has mom’s guests now, so mom didn’t come in person, but you didn’t bring back the bananas mom asked for, so the punishment will definitely be inevitable.”
Perospero sat down on the ground with a headache. It won’t be too serious, which means that he won’t be extracted from his life, but it’s hard to say precisely what kind of punishment he will receive.
“Lord Perospero, actually, they didn’t take all the bananas.”
The men returned from the banana forest and brought back a mood that slightly pleased Perospero. It was bananas that had been affected by the previous battle. There were bananas that had their outer skins blackened, cut by pieces of candy, and crushed.
After loading all the bananas and banana seedlings onto the ship, the ship’s cargo hold was filled to overflowing, and the prisoners and other pirates had to be taken away, so the rotten fruits had been dumped there.
Looking at the rotten fruit, Perospero’s heart is very complicated.
Half the reason Charlotte Ling Ling was angry had to do with food, and it was easy to calm her anger by finding her what she needed to eat, but these were terrible fruits.
“Compert, you’re willing to help me, aren’t you?”
“Brother Peros, what are you going to do .”
The Charlotte siblings were more united than their mother, especially when Big Mom had her bouts of anorexia.
Not all of them were good cooks, especially the sons, but the Charlotte daughters all had a specialty in desserts.
Compte, on the other hand, specialized in candied fruit, where chopped fruit was boiled, sweetened with spices, and mixed with syrup, which used to be a way of preserving the fruit or canning it.
In the past, this was a way of preserving fruits, or canned fruits, but with different cooking times and different additions of sugar, the resultant dishes were all different things.
Looking at Perospero’s gaze, Comport seemed to understand what he wanted to do.
“Brother Peros, is it possible that you want to?”
“Ah, cut off the bad parts and process them to bring back to mom.”
You never knew exactly what you were eating under what circumstances and with what ingredients, and as long as it tasted good and the story stayed the same, it wasn’t a big deal.
Big Mother really does not pay much attention to food hygiene and safety, infused with the soul of Hormitz every day in a variety of places to run around, food for thought when the attack will directly eat food made of housing, never heard of her lousy stomach.
As for why there are still bananas after the failure, he just needs to explain that he grabbed them during the previous battle and that Big Mom’s intelligence will drop straight down when she is faced with food.
It was a matter of fooling his mom or exposing Perospero, and Comport chose the former; it really wasn’t a big deal, and as long as they didn’t talk about it, no one would know about it.
The only people who knew about it were the people who came with Perospero, and the people who came with Compte weren’t here, and Perospero wasn’t worried about them reporting it.
“Mom’s character is clear to all of you. If I am punished, you will probably lose your lives; if you want to live, you should honestly work according to Compert’s instructions. As for reporting to Mom, I believe that you won’t do such a stupid thing.”
“Don’t worry, Lord Perospero, we are well aware of that.”
The BIG-MOM Pirates didn’t have any argument that their merits and demerits would be offset. At most, they had gone from plundering 50 years of life to 40 years of life, and even if they didn’t do anything, they wouldn’t be able to avoid being punished when they got back to their home, so they should just get on Prospero’s pirate ship.
After some simple processing, they got a lot of bananas that didn’t have any problems. Although they weren’t fully ripe yet, they were suitable for this kind of use.
The fruiting ability of the Perospero provides a large amount of high-quality syrup, and while this may make the sweetness greasy for some, it doesn’t have a significant impact on Big Mom.
After processing, they got a big tub of candied fruit with those bananas as the main ingredient and other fruits as the toppings.
There was little wrong with any of these ingredients except that they had suffered some minor misfortunes earlier, so Comport didn’t mind and tasted them herself.
“The flavor. No wonder it interested Mom so much, but Brother Peros, what are we going to do if Mom gets addicted to the flavor and keeps making us look for this banana in the future?”
“. We’ll talk about that later; let’s get this over with first.”
Tearing down the east wall to make up for the west wall, as for what to do with the east wall, he needed more time to think about it right now, first save the west wall and then talk about it.
With apprehension, Perospero and Comport embarked on the ship back to Totland.
Not long ago, Cake Island was the main island of the Totland Kingdom.
The Big-Mom Pirates had returned here after the end of the last Eating Disorder.
Perospero was not able to bring back the banana within the time limit, and the others did not find a substitute for this banana.
They tried every kind of banana in Totland, but they needed help to reach the sweetness of this banana, which also had the sweetness of other fruits cleverly blended together.
This challenged Big Mother’s patience somewhat, and she was to have come to Perospero herself, but Caddo’s call came straight to her, and
“You mean it’s your people on that island?”
“Yes, Ling Ling, it’s not appropriate for your people to invade my territory.”
“Well, well, well, Kaido, you seem to be doing quite well these days, but I’m interested in that stuff.”
“But that’s my little brother’s stuff, and you can’t take it away from him without his permission.”
“I guess we can’t settle this over the phone.”
“Don’t worry, I’m already here.”
Said Kaido as he hung up the phone. Big Mom heard the noise coming from outside the front door.
“Mom! Something’s coming!”
