Chapter 311: Clowns vs Mama's Boys
Cricket is fighting, no, playing with Oven right now because Oven is an easy opponent for him. This guy is like an open book and his attacks are easy to predict. Oven only has a strong physique and good devil fruit mastery. But his fighting skills are garbage compared to Cricket.
"It seems you never met strong opponents that forced you to fight better. I guess all good opponents were taken care of by your brother and mom. That's why you are weak like this. Such a disappointment for Katakuri's triplet brother," says Cricket as he parries Oven's attacks.
"Bastard!" curse Oven angrily and he gets even hotter now that the floor starts to burn. This chapter made its debut appearance via N0v3lB1n.
Cricket smirks because this guy is very easy to provoke. Then as he predicted, Oven charges at him and attacks him again with his hotter fists. Cricket simply uses his Armament Haki to counter Oven's attacks.
Oven doesn't realize that he is being used by Cricket to train. To block Oven's max heat power fully, Cricket needs to use his Armament Haki to the max too. Cricket hopes that by using his Armament to its limit, he will be able to reach the advanced level, just like Buggy.
Palu watches from the side as Cricket taunts Oven to use stronger attacks and sighs. Then he jumps away to avoid a lot of candy arrows falling from the sky. He lands and looks at Perospero who shot those arrows.
"Hey, I was still watching a show here. Can't you just wait for a moment?" asks Palu.
"You Clowns are really as irritating as the rumors that I heard. I'll wipe the floor using that arrogant face of yours, perorin~," says Perospero while keep smiling as his big & long tongue hangs there.
"Why don't you wipe it with that tongue, Candy Licker? I'm sure the dirt will taste sweet for your tongue," says Palu while smirking.
Perospero just smiles, he isn't as hot-headed as Oven. Then he shoots a candy wave at Palu and Palu gets ready with his Warhammer. Palu then swings his Warhammer at the candy wave while smiling.
When the hammer hits the candy wave, some ripples appear between them. Palu uses his Hasshoken to block the candy wave. He is the best Hasshoken user in the crew right now, surpassing even Cricket who starts to rely on physical strength, haki, and other martial arts.
Palu's Hasshoken attack breaks the candy wave into pieces. The vibration even flows through the candy and almost hits Perospero. But the Candy Licker jumps away before it hits because the destruction is visibly coming toward him.
"As I thought of candy, so soft," says Palu while smirking.
"You sure like to talk," says Perospero rather pissedly.
"Of course, I have a mouth, after all, although not as big as yours," says Palu before rushing at Perospero.
Palu jumps and swings his Warhammer at Perospero who makes a candy wall to block Palu. The Warhammer hits the candy again and Hasshoken ripples appear again. Of course, the candy wall breaks again even though it's harder than before.
Then Palu keeps moving toward Perospero and attacks him using Warhammer. Perospero blocks Palu's Warhammer using his candy cane coated in haki. Ripples appear again from Palu's attack, and the floor around them is cracking.
"Ooh, he's really angry. Having 6 arms gives you a big advantage in a battle. Isn't that right, Charlotte Cracker?" asks Mantis while blocking a sword using her staff.
She is fighting Cracker who also has 6 arms and wields 6 swords like Magnus now. Of course, it's Cracker's fake appearance, but no one in the Clown Pirates knows it except Buggy. He didn't tell them because their intelligence team hasn't discovered anything, so it will be strange if he knows.
Besides, they will fight better if they think that the 6-armed man is Cracker. Although Cracker isn't as strong as when he fight Luffy 19 years later, he is already strong enough now. Big Mom Pirates haven't made Sweet Commanders positions, but Cracker is already one of the strongest among Big Mom's children.
"Mantis 'The Dancer', Clown Pirates' cook. Why don't you join our crew? We have the best cooks in the world. You can learn a lot of dishes and improve your cooking there," says Cracker.
"Why are you guys keep trying to recruit us? Does Big Mom stops making children already?" asks Mantis.
"We simply desire talents like you," says Cracker.
"Hah, you only desire talents that have shone. We were found by Captain and he was the one who polished our talents. People like you who can only have talents when they shine won't interest us. You are simply no match for Captain," says Mantis.
"Hmph, he's just lucky to find you," says Cracker.
"Yeah, and you are lucky to be born of that hag. You will be nothing if you aren't her son," says Mantis as she attacks Cracker.
He blocks her staff and attacks her using his 6 swords. She evades them all gracefully with dance-like movements, showing him why she is called The Dancer. They keep fighting and the war continues.
