Chapter 359 The Older Woman's Wrath
Charlotte Perospero paced back and forth in the room, his emotions in turmoil, as if enveloped by an invisible pressure. Before him lay two difficult choices, like the two ends of a scale, each tipping in one direction potentially leading to unpredictable consequences.
Their first option was to head to the port immediately and join their brothers in fighting the invading enemies. However, judging from the strength displayed by the enemy, their chances of defeat were quite high.
After all, by the time he arrives at the port, it's likely that not only Charlotte Owen and Daifuku will have fallen, but many more of their companions will also be dead. In that case, the worst-case scenario is that they will all ultimately fall to the invaders, and the entire Whole Cake Island will fall into enemy control.
The second option is to report the situation to their mother first, and then confront the invaders. The advantage of this is that even if Whole Cake Island is unfortunately captured, it can be quickly recaptured and returned to their pirate crew. And those invaders will certainly not have a good end.
After a fierce internal struggle, Charlotte Perospero finally made up her mind and chose the second option. She took a deep breath to calm herself down, then dialed the old lady's Den Den Mushi. The Den Den Mushi answered quickly, and the old lady's familiar and authoritative voice came through.
The Den Den Mushi suddenly began to change, its body gradually swelling until it transformed into a tall, fierce-looking middle-aged woman. The woman's voice came through the Den Den Mushi: "Perospero, calling at this hour, did you manage to secure the follow-up supplies?"
Charlotte Perospero shuddered violently upon hearing Charlotte Linlin's voice, as if struck by an invisible force. His face instantly turned pale, and a fine layer of sweat even appeared on his forehead. There was no way around it; the entire pirate crew's fear of Charlotte Linlin was ingrained, a fear that ran deep in their bones and souls. Even as Charlotte Linlin's eldest son, he was not immune to the shackles of this fear.
"What's wrong, Perospero?" Charlotte Perospero's unusual behavior immediately alerted Charlotte-Linling. The Den Den Mushi acted like a mirror, reflecting his expression without reservation. Charlotte-Linling's keen observation made her realize that something was wrong with her son.
"Hoo!" Charlotte Perospero took a deep breath, trying to calm himself down. He knew that if he didn't explain things clearly soon, he would probably provoke Charlotte Linlin's even greater anger. So, he composed himself and told Charlotte Linlin everything that had happened on Whole Cake Island.
After Charlotte Perospero finished speaking, Charlotte Linlin's expression on the other end of the Den Den Mushi suddenly froze, her already fierce face now appearing even more ferocious and terrifying. A raging fire seemed to ignite in her eyes, a fury that seemed capable of burning the entire world to ashes.
Charlotte Linlin could hardly believe what she was hearing. Someone actually dared to attack her stronghold at this time! This was nothing short of a provocation and an insult!
Then he muttered to himself, "Sasaki, Ulti, Page One, and three unknown people... the Navy? That must be that guy, Enni?"
"Crack!"
Her hands gripped the armrests like iron clamps, and with her exertion, a crisp "crack" was heard, and the originally sturdy chair armrests were crushed! All of this was simply because of the anger in her heart.
You know, they're business allies! How can allies stab each other in the back? That's utterly disloyal! If Annie were here right now, she would definitely not hesitate to raise her fist and smash it hard into his face, letting him know clearly what terrible consequences would come with offending her, Charlotte Linlin!
Thinking of this, Charlotte Linlin's gaze sharpened, suddenly landing on Charlotte Katakuri and Charlotte Cracker not far away. Her voice was cold and resolute: "You two, immediately take a team back to Whole Cake Island!"
Charlotte Katakuri and Charlotte Cracker exchanged a glance, both seeing a hint of seriousness in each other's eyes. They were acutely aware of the importance and urgency of this mission.
Seeing this, Charlotte Perospero quickly replied, "Yes, Mom! I will do my best to hold off the enemy and buy Katakuri and Cracker enough time to return to the rescue!" His face was full of seriousness, clearly prepared to fight the enemy to the bitter end.
Charlotte Linlin nodded in satisfaction and then hung up the phone. Immediately afterward, she turned to Charlotte Katakuri and Charlotte Cracker, and said sternly, "Listen up! A bunch of reckless fools are attacking Whole Cake Island! You must get back as fast as you can, and we absolutely cannot allow anything to happen to Whole Cake Island!"
"what?"
Charlotte Katakuri and Charlotte Cracker were both struck dumb by their mother's words, their bodies trembling violently and their faces showing disbelief.
Their eyes widened, their mouths gaped open as if they could fit an egg in them. It was so unexpected that they wondered if they had misheard.
If their mother hadn't said those words herself, they probably would have already spoken up to stop her. After all, in the New World, their pirate crew was known for its strength; they were the ones who attacked others, and no one dared to provoke them.
Those who want to seize territory, shouldn't they attack the territory of the Whitebeard Pirates, who have already been scattered? There are plenty of ready-made resources and lands to plunder there. Or, they could wait for the Red-Haired Pirates to return and then seize their territory.
But now someone is actually attacking Whole Cake Island, which is their pirate crew's stronghold! This is simply provoking trouble. Are these people really just bored and looking for trouble?
Charlotte Katakuri and Charlotte Cracker found it increasingly unbelievable, and the shock in their hearts was hard to calm down.
......
Meanwhile, Aini received an unexpected call.
It belongs to Figarando Grindelwald.
“Aini, you told me about your plans before. But now you’ve gone a bit too far.”
He paused for a moment at this point.
He then added, "You must understand, the Holy Land doesn't want all the pirate crews in the New World to be wiped out. The Holy Land hopes that the New World will return to its original state, even if it's not the original Four Emperors. At least, it should have Three Emperors."
Only in this way can we effectively rule the world.
