Vongola Primo in One Piece - Chapter 326
“Hahaha! So Shiki still has that much strength in him? But he’s an old man whose body is about to give in. Before he’s defeated by Vongola Primo, I’m going to vent all my pent-up anger against your Family!”
As Giotto and Shiki clashed in battle, Big Mom let out her powerful Color of Supreme King Haki. It surged like a flood, continuously assaulting the members of the Vongola Family who had arrived on the island.
However, Reborn and the others stood their ground firmly, seemingly unaffected by Big Mom’s Color of Supreme King Haki. On the contrary, some of Shiki’s men fainted without Big Mom even targeting them.
“Big Mom, there’s one thing I don’t quite understand. I know that you’re smart, yet why would you join forces with Shiki to attack Vongola Family? Have you gotten too complacent these past few years?” Reborn said with his icy voice as he raised his head at this moment.
“You little brat, do you think I’d forget about the past just because I’ve had a few peaceful years? If it were just me, I probably wouldn’t lay a finger on the Vongola Family, but with Shiki by my side, it’s a different story. Your Vongola Family is undoubtedly powerful, but not all of your forces are gathered here. And with me and Shiki, we might just be able to shake things up!”
Before setting out, Big Mom had closely monitored the movements of the Vongola Family members in three areas: Wano Country, Ryusu Island, and the Golden Paradise. If she had discovered that Varia and External Advisor were heading for Secon Island, she would have reconsidered launching the attack on Secon Island with Shiki.
But strangely, there was no movement in any of these areas. Honestly, this puzzled Big Mom. As for the External Advisor’s side, it was somewhat understandable since they had a limited number of renowned powerhouses, and they might be concerned about a potential aerial ambush by Shiki, which was why they stayed behind to guard Ryusu Island.
But what about Wano Country?
Varia’s forces had several high-ranking officers, with their commander XANXUS being a top-level powerhouse. Furthermore, they had numerous elite troops, yet they didn’t make any move whatsoever?
“Well, now that I understand your thinking, it’s not so surprising,” Reborn nodded, acknowledging Big Mom’s explanation.
However, who said that there was no reinforment heading for Secon Island? Reborn was well aware that the enemy had definitely conducted reconnaissance on other Vongola Family’s territories, but whether they had truly gathered accurate information was uncertain. After all, Varia’s forces were known as an independent and covert assassination unit, skilled at avoiding detection, not to mention they had access to Verde’s optical camouflage warships.
When it became apparent that Shiki might cause trouble, Giotto had left the matter to Xanxus to handle. Judging by the timing, Varia should have arrived by now…
“Hahaha! So this time, I’ll have to make Vongola Family suffer heavy losses. However, I know that completely destroying your family is impossible. But if I can whittle your strength and turn New World into the territory of the Three Emperors, I can totally accept that!”
Big Mom took another step, and with each step, her terrifying aura grew stronger. Even the ground beneath her feet trembled.
It remained uncertain whether the trembling was due to her sheer weight or something else.
“Alright, alright, I’ll take care of this one. After all, it’s an order from Primo, and although it’s troublesome, I still need to do it.”
At that moment, Lampow slowly approached Reborn half-heartedly, with one eye open and one eye closed. As he spoke, the Vongola Ring on his hand exuded green Lightning Flame, and his own aura also burst forth. Despite his apparent lack of enthusiasm, his strength should not be underestimated!
“Lampow, the Lightning Guardian? You dare to stand in front of me, even though I’ve injured you back then?”
Big Mom sneered and gripped Napoleon that had transformed into a massive sword, with an immensely powerful Color of Arms Haki surrounding it. However, she didn’t immediately swing the giant sword. Instead, she used her monstrous strength to throw a punch at Lampow, a punch so fierce it tore through the air like a falling mountain.
Truly a natural-born monster, even without Haki, her physical strength alone was already terrifying!
Upon seeing Big Mom made her move, Lampow’s expression remained unchanged. When it came to raw physical strength, he wouldn’t come close to the Iron Balloon before him, but in actual combat, it wasn’t just about physical strength. With Hardening characteristic of Lightning Flame, he could completely withstand Big Mom’s attacks, no matter how powerful it was.
He imbued his body with Lightning Flame and threw a punch of his own.
Boom!
A deafening explosion rang out, and a storm was set off around them. Weaker individuals in the vicinity were sent flying, and the ground beneath Lampow’s feet shattered.
“It seems you’re much stronger than before. But how many punches can you withstand?” Big Mom sneered again. She clenched her fist clenched as she launched another strike.
At this moment, both sides were still gauging each other…
Or to be more precise, Big Mom was testing Lampow, while Lampow appeared to be simply lacking enthusiasm.
“One punch after another, don’t you find it boring? Well, I suppose I’ll take this a bit more seriously. Your slash back then actually irritated me.”
Lampow easily blocked the punches from Big Mom, and then pointed at Big Mom. “Myriad Thunder!”
As soon as he said this, a violent thunderstorm erupted, completely enveloping Big Mom’s body. However, this was just the result of Lampow’s Rumble-Rumble Fruit’s ability.
“Hahaha! Are you trying to tickle me? This level of lightning won’t do anything. If this is all you got once you get serious, I guess the Guardian of Vongola Family is no big deal! Get out of here! Ikoku Sovereignity!”
Finally, at this moment, Big Mom swung the giant sword Napoleon. A powerful compressed air blade burst forth, creating deep rifts in the ground. Upon witnessing this strike, Lampow remained motionless, with one hand reaching for his Vongola Box Weapon…
