Chapter 175 Welcome back, monster of the soul!

""
At that moment, the scene shown on the live broadcast plunged the entire Totland into the ultimate tranquility.
That was also the source of Katakuri's almost unconcealable horror before.
"It...it really is true..."

Perospero covered his head with both hands, and his tongue began to tangle.
"Mom...Mom was..."
Smoothie's expression at this moment was almost blank.
And clearly it wasn't just them.
Throughout Tottoland, whether ordinary citizens or members of the Charlotte family.
At that moment, everyone's jaws nearly dropped to the ground, and some even fainted on the spot.
What they were seeing at that moment was completely beyond their comprehension.
The "Four Emperors" are the rulers of the seas, and are the pirates among pirates.
Since they dominated the New World and earned the title of "Emperors of the Sea," countless people have challenged them.
But none of them were able to successfully dethrone them or kill the Four Emperors.
They are the strongest pirates, monsters that even the Navy Headquarters and the World Government fear – this is common knowledge for most people on the sea.
But now, it's right in front of them.
Right in the heart of the Four Emperors' stronghold, in the capital of Totto Land, the land of the Four Emperors.
Big Mom, one of the Four Emperors, was killed with ease!
This situation, which even the most imaginative people wouldn't dare to think of, gave almost everyone at that moment a sense of unreality.
"Are you...you're kidding? How could that BIGMOM be possible?"
"Hey! Hey! Look at the Homies..."
At that moment, someone exclaimed in surprise.
Then everyone saw it.
The entire Tottoland underwent a transformation at this moment.
The pulsating ground, the talking walls, and the dancing clouds all seemed to dissipate at this moment.
Their eyes rolled back at that moment, their faces began to disappear, and the obvious change in their aura was even noticeable to ordinary people.
And in the center of that live broadcast screen.
"Buzz!"
The face of "Zeus the Thundercloud" also began to disappear, as did the face of "Napoleon in the Tricorn Hat".
"Are the Homies going to disappear? If that's the case, Mom really..."
Upon seeing this, Perospero almost jumped up.
This scene looks too much like the standard scenario where "the ability user dies and their creations disappear."
But it is precisely at this moment...
"you..."
But he heard his younger brother's voice, which sounded unbelievable.
He turned his head and looked at Katakuri not far away.
At that moment, he saw Katakuri clenching his fists tightly.
The complexity in his expression and words was not concealed.
"What kind of monster are you... Mom?"
Even this strongman who had been fighting the sea with the old lady since childhood.
At this moment, however, his words clearly carried an air of disbelief.
At the same time...
Above the ruins of Cake Castle.
The Rat, Rooster, and Dog, who originally thought the battle was over, had almost all deactivated their strongest battle modes. Whether it was the Winged Dragon of Ra form, the True Mirage, or the World Slice, the physical exertion was too great for them.
But even now, they remained tense.
They naturally noticed the situation of the Homies as well—especially the non-combat type snack Homies, or the various furniture Homies that were being cleaned.
At this moment, they all let out unintelligible wails, as if they were about to disappear.
But that's where the problem lies...
They knew very well that the Soul-Soul Fruit's power was very special.
Its essence is to extract the souls and lifespans of others to create entirely new beings.
According to the original work, these creatures can continue to exist even after the ability user dies.
For example, even after Big Mom died, Zeus, the thundercloud beside Nami, still existed.
In other words...
The abnormality of these Homies at this moment is not due to the dissipation caused by the death of the ability user.
And if that's not enough to explain the situation...
"bake!"
At this moment, accompanied by burning flames.
The enormous figure falling from the sky was enough to explain the situation.
It was a massive fireball, like the sun.
That is Prometheus, one of the three Homies created by Big Mom's own soul.
At this moment, the Homie, as if it were a human, extended two tentacles out of thin air from its enormous fiery body.
And what those two wrists were holding was none other than the thundercloud "Zeus and the tricorn hat" Napoleon.
But strangely—unlike Prometheus, who was clearly still conscious at this moment.
Both Zeus and Napoleon were now in the same strange "faceless" state.
Their aura remained powerful, but their consciousness seemed to have vanished.
"Mom, I'm sorry... I couldn't protect your body."
At that moment, Prometheus spoke respectfully to the old woman's body, which had been split in two, and her severed head.
It spoke these words as if it had gone completely mad because of its master's passing.
But, just the next moment...
"It's not your fault, Prometheus."
A deep reply echoed across the ruins.
It sounded like an older woman's voice, but the tone was completely different from what one would expect from an older woman.
Previously, BIGMOM's tone was chaotic and willful, yet tinged with a strange innocence and childlike wonder.
So at this moment, the voice is nothing but indifference, violence, and...evil.
"How can I truly take control of my soul if I don't completely 'die' once?"
"As for the body... it doesn't matter!"
"Even if her body is split open and her head is severed, Lingling's body is still a real monster."
"And—this is Totland, my country!"
Meanwhile...
"Hey—I've already seen it."
Within the hearts of the three members of the twelve constellations, the voice of another constellation resounded.
"The main body will transmit its vision to you. Big Mom... is indeed a real monster."
As they spoke, the perspectives of the three members of the Twelve Constellations suddenly changed.
At this moment, their perspective seemed to shift to the sky.
In addition, their perspective seems to have shifted from merely observing the real world to observing everything in the world through the "soul's" eyes.
【Lord of the Underworld - Soul's Perspective】
Above them, through the clouds, they looked down at the ruins of Cake Castle.
At this moment, amidst the ruins...
"Among the corpses of the old woman, something is slowly rising up."
It was a soul of unbelievable size.
Or perhaps it is a monster created by the merging of many souls together.
One, two, three, four—the vast majority of those souls were very weak and pure, displaying a dazzling array of colors.
There is brave red, kind green, and cheerful blue.
However, there are only two exceptions.
One of them was a pink soul—a soul that was also very clean and pure.
But the other was a black soul.
And within this soul...
Greed, cruelty, violence, and baseness—its ugliness even taints all other innocent souls.
Both of these soul fragments were much larger than the others, but the pink soul fragment seemed to have lost its vitality at this moment.
It shrank rapidly, completely suppressed by the black soul.
And that was the source of the changes that occurred throughout Totland at that moment.
"Soul Deprivation Homie!"
As the old woman's evil voice rang out, her scattered corpse suddenly began to change at that moment.
Countless points of light flew up from all directions of Totland.
The source of those countless points of light was none other than the Homies who had become extremely strange at this moment.
The only difference is that the Homies with light spots flying out from their bodies at this moment are not combat-type Homies, but rather auxiliary Homies such as snack Homies, sweeping Homies for daily life, and weather Homies to ensure the weather in the world.
"That brat Lingling."
"No matter how much I try to influence her, she insists on building this country into some kind of fairytale land? What kind of utopia?"
"He's just a kid whose soul is stuck at six years old, yet he's so determined to suppress me in this kind of thing... He's an idiot!"
The middle-aged woman's voice came softly.
"Weather? Snacks? Life? Who would waste their collected souls and lifespans on such mundane things?"
"With that monstrous power, all the people of this country are just slaves, and this country itself is not some dream home," but just trash that can be discarded at any time.
99
"The only purpose of slaves is to earn money for me, provide me with lifespan and soul. If they disobey, kill them. I don't need to care about the lives of slaves; the weather and such are fine as they may..."
"The only Homies I need to create are weapons and tools of war to help me dominate the world—that's what the Four Emperors should be doing!"
She seemed to have been suppressing her feelings for too long, and she was very talkative at this moment.
But the next moment...
"Soul Endowment, Body, Self-Repair!"
Accompanied by her low growl.
Countless points of light began to surge into BIGMOM's previously scattered corpse at this moment.
Then...
"Mother!"
Her bones seemed to come alive, calling to each other as they grew anew.
"Welcome, Mom!"
Her flesh and blood seemed to come alive, roaring as they reassembled.
"Welcome, Mom!"
At this moment, the shattered fragments of her heart and the pieces of her head also mended each other and reassembled.
"Welcome, Mom!" *N
Layer upon layer, a tremendous sound resounded throughout Totland at that moment.
Those voices came from all the Homies of Totland.
At that moment, the battle Homies, who had previously seemed to have lost their faces and vitality, began to laugh in unison.
Their faces regenerated, but they were completely different from before.
They no longer sing, no longer dance, no longer resemble a utopia or fairy tale.
Quite the opposite.
At this moment, all the Homies newly born in this "world of ten thousand"... their eyes all became extremely fierce and evil.
"Welcome back to rule all, welcome back to possess all..."
Amidst such cheers.
"bake!"
Flames burned above Prometheus.
Then, BIGMOM's massive figure stood up again.
However, at this moment, her expression had completely changed.
And that soul, almost completely stained with darkness, is enough to explain her true nature.
She is no longer the Charlotte Linlin she once was.
She is still BIGMOM.
But at this moment, the control of her soul belonged to...
"Our mother—Lady Charlotte Carmelo!"
