Chapter 160

In the New World, on the outskirts of the Smile Kingdom—a contact point between the Smiling Pirates and one of the Four Emperors, the Big Mom Pirates—the main force of the Big Mom Pirates stared with deep resentment at the towering sea of purple poison before them, utterly helpless to deal with it. The ferocious venom could even erode ships. Neither Perospero's candy coats nor the defensive barriers generated by the Devil Fruit abilities of other users could withstand the venom of Little Xiangliu. That was how the current situation had come to be. A few days ago, the Big Mom Pirates heard the news that the Whitebeard Pirates had been defeated and that Whitebeard Newgate had been wiped out by the World Government during the Summit War. Their ambition to expand their territory could no longer be suppressed. Using the name of the Four Emperors, Perospero wanted to seize Whitebeard's territory, and Fish-Man Island was an exceptionally good choice. However, the simplest way to reach Fish-Man Island was to have a ship coated at the Sabaody Archipelago and descend into the depths.
