In the Windless Belt.
On Rusukaina Island.
Holding a large wine cup, he leaned somewhat lazily against a large tree, watching Califa and Isabella, who were training with sweat.
Even Califa, who had been a little lazy, was strictly ordered by Isabella to join the training. Following Califa, he practiced the Six Powers, feeling somewhat bitter and without choice.
Perhaps it was the influence of the Lucky Fruit, but this woman's progress in training was astonishingly fast.
Having some basic physical combat skills to begin with, she easily grasped Soru among the Six Powers, leaving Califa astonished.
"They're really working hard..." With long, slender legs and a graceful figure, Stussy looked at the exceptionally hardworking Isabella and others, sighing faintly.
It was no problem for her to work so hard for a short time, but doing this every day was truly impossible.
"Bzzzz bzzzz,"
The Den Den Mushi on his body suddenly rang.
Stussy connected the Den Den Mushi, which could communicate over ultra-long distances across the Red Line. It was a relatively rare Den Den Mushi: "Moshi Moshi, this is Stussy."
"Stussy, I'm Charlotte Katakuri. How are you doing now?" The Den Den Mushi mimicked Charlotte Katakuri's stern expression.
The fresh red wine inside swirled. He took a light sip.
"Big Brother Katakuri, I'm doing well over here. Is something wrong?" Stussy raised an eyebrow, asking with a somewhat lazy tone.
"Is that guy Vinsmoke Ichiji there?"
Katakuri's tone was somewhat unkind. Suppressing his displeasure and anger, he said in a deep voice, with a hint of solemnity: "Mother's patience has reached its limit. He must immediately tell us the news about the nun. Otherwise, I'm afraid Mother will go crazy and directly eliminate him..."
"Fortunately, news came that Marine Admiral Akainu fell at the hands of Shiki. Mother is in a good mood, so she's easier to talk to these days!"
He wasn't lying. Big Mom's own temper was already explosive enough. For her to tolerate it for so long, it was truly the result of Vinsmoke Ichiji's astonishing strength, making her unable to defeat this brat.
"I'll go inform him now, Big Brother Katakuri, you wait for a moment~~~"
Stussy's face stiffened. She put down her wine glass and stood up directly. On her tall, slender right thigh, a bewitching flower had been re-tattooed at some unknown point: "He just came back from the North Blue and is resting."
He had been traveling continuously at full speed, and he had fought a great battle with Marine Admiral Akainu. Even if there was no problem with his physical strength, his mental state could not be completely without fatigue.
Speaking of which, he wasn't a machine. Ichiji, who had just returned in the morning, went directly into his room and had been sleeping for a whole morning.
Stussy was naturally unaware of these twists and turns.
He also wouldn't think that Marine Admiral Akainu's death in battle had any special connection to Ichiji.
After all, he was completely unharmed. He didn't look like he had gone through any fierce battle; he was just a little tired from continuous travel.
"Katakuri?"
Ichiji, who had been awakened, was not angry. He said with a faint smile, "Couldn't hold back anymore?"
"Less nonsense, Ichiji, Stussy is already following you..."
With dissatisfaction, Katakuri said unkindly, "Is it time to tell us the news about the Nun of Germa?"
"It looks like you're ready. Has Big Mom already left Whole Cake Island?"
Ichiji's right hand lightly stroked Stussy's beautiful face. His lips curled into a sinister smile, causing Stussy's heart to skip a beat and giving her a premonition of something bad. "Alright, you tell Big Mom this, Perospero..."
"The former owner of the Soul-Soul Fruit was that Nun of Germa!"
"And on that day, the Nun of Germa led those children of the Orphanage to Big Mom's birthday. After feasting wildly in ecstasy, Big Mom herself suddenly gained the power of the Soul-Soul Fruit..."
"Katakuri, use your excellent wisdom to guess what happened in between, hahaha~~~"
Having said this, Ichiji couldn't help but grin, letting out a sinister laugh.
"Could it be...?"
Whether it was Stussy herself, or on the other end of the Den Den Mushi, Perospero and other ministers of the Big Mom Pirates, they all couldn't help but tremble, their faces turning pale.
"That's right, you guessed correctly. It's your mother. She directly ate the nun and those companions, and she even strangely gained the power of the Soul-Soul Fruit! Hahaha~~~"
Stussy's pupils constricted violently, and fine sweat immediately beaded on her forehead.
She could imagine what would happen if her mother learned this news. She might go mad, perhaps even suffer a mental breakdown!
"Katakuri, if your mother has a mental breakdown later, remember to keep contacting me. Otherwise, it will be a big problem..." Ichiji said with a sinister smile. If Big Mom had a mental breakdown, he would directly inform her of the nun's true identity to save her. If she merely went mad for a while, then there was no need.
Keeping this information, he still had two cards up his sleeve.
On the other end of the Den Den Mushi, somewhere in an unknown sea.
On a deserted, desolate island, Katakuri and others had finally persuaded Big Mom to come here.
One by one, they couldn't help but shiver from head to toe, stunned by such a result, cold sweat streaming uncontrollably.
"Brother Perospero, this news..."
Katakuri's voice was difficult, his face reaching an extreme point of grimness.
He hadn't expected that probing Vinsmoke Ichiji would yield such shocking information.
Their mother had actually eaten the Nun of Germa and her other playmates when she was a child, and even strangely gained the other party's ability. (So powerful) It simply made one's scalp tingle.
But Vinsmoke Ichiji could not possibly lie to them with such information, because Big Mom herself could absolutely verify it.
"No, I wouldn't dare. Mother would definitely kill me!" Perospero, whose forehead was exposed, shook his head like a drum and said, sweating profusely. He directly refused without hesitation.
If their mother went crazy, she wouldn't care if the person in front of her was her child or not. She would kill him without fail.
"Brother Katakuri, we can't..."
The other ministers, including the hot-tempered Cracker, all stepped back in unison.
They knew, even with their eyes closed, that if they told their mother that the nun had been eaten by her, what kind of outcome would there be.
"I don't want you to go to your death. I want you to call the Homies Legion over..."
