Big Mom's earth-shaking scream instantly echoed across the entirety of Totto Land.
And the meaning behind her words—
Made everyone's eyes practically pop out of their sockets.
Kaido… peeking at Big Mom while she was bathing?!
No—worse.
What she said was that Kaido dared to peek again.
That single word—again—contained an absurd amount of information.
Everyone froze.
Someone swallowed hard.
"Ka–Kaido came to Totto Land?"
"That's impossible… If someone like Kaido showed up, how could we not notice?"
Logically speaking, that made sense.
But then how did Big Mom see Kaido?!
And Big Mom didn't lie.
Ever.
At that moment, Big Mom's children were already gathering.
The eldest was Perospero, but the one truly in charge was the strongest—her second son, Charlotte Katakuri.
Katakuri stood up at once, decisive as ever.
"Something happened to Mother. We move. Now."
He took the lead without hesitation.
Perospero and the other Sweet Commanders followed closely.
At the very back, Charlotte Snack suddenly clutched his stomach and burst out laughing.
"Pff—HAHAHAHA!"
Cracker frowned.
"What are you laughing at?"
Snack was laughing so hard tears streamed down his face.
"Isn't it hilarious? That's Kaido we're talking about—peeking on Mother!"
It was ridiculous.
But Cracker shook his head.
"That's impossible. If Kaido were really here, we'd know. This is probably one of Mother's episodes again."
Everyone fell silent.
Because that was a terrifying possibility.
Big Mom's hunger fits were infamous.
When she lost control, she killed indiscriminately—even her own children.
Several of her offspring had already died by her hand.
Thinking of that, Snack stopped laughing immediately, fear replacing amusement.
Up ahead, Katakuri spoke calmly:
"Relax. I already had the head chef prepare sweets. They'll be delivered shortly."
The commanders' eyes filled with trust.
Compared to their unstable mother, Katakuri was the true pillar of safety.
They soon arrived at Big Mom's residence.
The bathroom was already wrecked by her monstrous strength.
Big Mom was dressed now, flames literally blazing from her eyes—
Prometheus coiled around her head, burning fiercely.
She glared at a door that had appeared out of nowhere.
Katakuri, Perospero, Cracker—all froze.
So it wasn't a hunger episode.
Through that open doorway—
They clearly saw the massive figure of Kaido.
Which meant…
Kaido really had appeared right there.
Heaven help them—this was insane.
On the other side of the door—
On Onigashima.
Big Mom's scream had been heard loud and clear by Luo Xing, Yamato, and the others.
Yamato burst out laughing and leaned against Luo Xing.
"Old man, I never knew you were that kind of person!"
Queen desperately tried—and failed—not to laugh.
The Beast Pirates stared in shock.
Since when did their mighty Kaido have that kind of history with Big Mom?
Luo Xing's expression was… complicated.
He truly hadn't expected the Log Pose Kaido handed him to be locked onto Totto Land.
And the Anywhere Door's exit location?
Completely random.
Kaido's luck had truly opened the worst possible blind box.
Straight into Big Mom's bath.
Father-in-law… this misunderstanding is on another level. Don't blame me.
Luo Xing barely held back his laughter while Yamato laughed herself breathless.
Kaido's face turned an unprecedented shade of purple.
White steam puffed from his horns.
He exploded:
"SHUT UP, LINLIN, YOU OLD HAG!
WHEN HAVE I EVER PEEKED AT YOU?!"
Furious, Kaido grabbed his kanabo and charged straight through the door.
Big Mom's shrill roar answered him:
"KAIDO, YOU STILL WON'T ADMIT IT? BACK IN THE ROCKS DAYS—"
"SHUT UP, LINLIN!"
BOOM—!
Kaido's Haoshoku Haki erupted violently.
The Anywhere Door shook as if it might shatter.
Luo Xing quickly coughed and addressed the Beast Pirates:
"Everyone, that was an accident. This door's exit is random.
Please do not misunderstand and think Father-in-law has any… complicated relationship with Big Mom."
Yamato laughed even harder.
That just made it worse.
Luo Xing continued calmly:
"We should go in too. Can't let Father-in-law fight alone in Totto Land."
With that, he stepped forward, pulling Yamato with him, and vanished through the door.
Queen, Jack, and the others rushed in after them.
BOOOOOOM—!!
The moment Luo Xing entered, he saw thunder and flames colliding violently in the sky.
"Thunder Bagua!"
"Heavenly Fire!"
The clash obliterated Big Mom's palace in an instant.
Luo Xing immediately pulled Yamato back to safety.
Big Mom's children were also hiding nearby.
Seeing Luo Xing and Yamato, Perospero and the others raised their weapons warily.
"Who are you?!"
Katakuri's pupils shrank sharply.
He had attended the Senzu Bean auction in Dressrosa.
Even though Luo Xing wore a mask back then, Katakuri would never forget that aura.
Slowly, he said:
"So this is your true face…
Luo Xing, the Fifth Emperor."
"And that strange door—your new invention?"
Luo Xing didn't deny it.
He smiled warmly.
"Long time no see, Katakuri.
Yes, that's the Anywhere Door. Just a small toy I finished recently."
A small toy?
A device that crossed the distance between Wano and Totto Land instantly?!
That was no toy—it was as terrifying as the Monster Cells and the Senzu Beans.
Before Katakuri could reply—
The battle between Kaido and Big Mom intensified.
Their Haoshoku Haki surged to unimaginable levels.
Countless subordinates across Totto Land collapsed unconscious.
Black pressure flooded the land.
Even the sky itself split apart.
This—
Was the true terror of Emperors.
