Super Card System-Chapter 699: The Unpredictable Human Heart

“Mom… Mama!?”

Upon seeing Big Mom’s corpse in the pit, Amande and the other daughters of Big Mom couldn’t believe it and covered their faces, screaming.

Then they frantically jumped into the pit to check on Big Mom’s condition.

Many people began wailing at this moment, but similarly, some did not cry.

For instance, Charlotte Chiffon, who was hiding beside Capone Bege, had a sad expression on her face, but for some reason, she felt a weight lifted off her shoulders—a sense of relief.

Although she and Capone Bege had fallen in love and were deeply affectionate, she had always worried that her husband, Capone Bege, participating in this rebellion, would eventually be executed by Big Mom. But now, when she saw Big Mom’s corpse, she finally breathed a sigh of relief.

Indeed, Big Mom was her biological mother, but she had never felt any maternal love from her. Even at her and Capone Bege’s wedding, she hadn’t truly received Big Mom’s blessing.

Big Mom attended her wedding primarily to annex the Fire Tank Pirates through marriage and purely to eat the wedding cake.

One could say that in Big Mom’s eyes, Chiffon was just a tool.

There were many children like her who were treated as tools. Big Mom had over a hundred children; not every one of them could be as strong as Katakuri or Smoothie. So within the Big Mom Pirates, their status had always been low, and Big Mom was usually rough-tempered, so those children without strength were not in a good situation.

In short, domestic violence was very serious within the Charlotte family. These children had thought about escaping from Whole Cake Island, escaping the pirate crew, and sometimes, when they were bullied and scolded, they even thought of their biological fathers, whose whereabouts were unknown…

If Big Mom were still alive, under her deterrence, the Charlotte family could maintain a unique harmony. But now that she was killed in battle with Ian, many different thoughts emerged.

“Mom is dead, what should we do? Should we avenge her?”

“Don’t be ridiculous. If even Mom wasn’t Ian’s match, how can we avenge her?”

“Brother Katakuri is also dead, and Brother Perospero is missing… The Big Mom Pirates are finished!”

“This battle—the Dragon Hunter Pirates won. Should we find a way to escape? What if the Dragon Hunter Pirates kill us all? I don’t want to die here…”

“But where can we go?”

“How about we go find our fathers? I’ve never seen mine since I was born; I don’t even know if he’s still alive…”

The lower-ranked, later-born children of Big Mom were watching from afar. Although their faces showed some sadness, compared to the eldest daughter Compote, Cracker, Galette, or Amande and Mondor—the children usually valued by Big Mom—their sadness was far less.

This is the so-called closeness or distance…

Not to mention the differing thoughts within the Big Mom Pirates, the guests who came to attend the tea party were equally shocked.

To be honest, earlier, due to Katakuri’s orders, the Big Mom Pirates even attacked these guests. But Drug Peclo, Du Feld, and Morgans—their earlier counterattacks were purely for self-protection. They didn’t really want to be enemies with the Big Mom Pirates because, in their view, the Big Mom Pirates had dominated the New World seas for so many years; such a foundation could not be replaced by the newly rising Dragon Hunter Pirates. So they just wanted to save their own lives and, after this rebellion ended, find a way to explain to Big Mom.

However, at this moment, the corpse of Big Mom falling from the sky stunned them. None of them expected that Big Mom would be killed in battle with Ian!

Losing Big Mom meant that the flag of the Big Mom Pirates would fall!

Among these underground world bosses, the fastest to react was Morgans. This guy deserved to be the president of the World Economic News Agency; his sensitivity to big news was top-notch. When he realized that the Big Mom Pirates would disintegrate after today, he ignored everything else, directly taking out a camera Den Den Mushi from his pocket and frantically taking pictures of Big Mom’s corpse.

While taking pictures, this big bird was trembling with excitement.

“Big news! And it’s super big news! The Big Mom Pirates were defeated by the Dragon Hunter Pirates, and Big Mom, one of the Four Emperors, was killed. Plus, earlier, Admiral ‘White Wolf’ Arest and CP0’s Stussy from the World Government’s intelligence agency were involved. If I can report this event completely, the whole world will be shocked by my newspaper!”

Again, if Big Mom wasn’t dead, Morgans might not have dared to take photos so blatantly. But now that she was dead, all the fear that shrouded people’s hearts disappeared. Morgans had made up his mind; even if the World Government pressured the newspaper, he would hold firm and restore the entire event completely!

Morgans’ actions also made the other big bosses start to think. The funeral director Drug Peclo was already calculating whether, if Big Mom’s children wanted to bury Big Mom, he could take the opportunity to extort a hefty coffin fee. The Shipping King Umit was thinking that he finally didn’t have to pay protection fees to the Big Mom Pirates for his shipping routes…

You can’t blame these guests for thinking this way. Big Mom, who had been ruling Totto Land with fear and force, had never truly earned anyone’s respect. They became friends with Big Mom purely driven by interests…

As for the only guest left in the field, Vinsmoke Judge, he was staring at Big Mom’s corpse with a silent expression.

What he wanted to say now was: I want to be alone…

He had always represented the Vinsmoke family, currying favor with the Big Mom Pirates, wanting to use their power to let the Vinsmoke family reign over the North Blue again. However, this tea party disrupted all his plans.

Because of Reiju, the Vinsmoke family was also attacked by the Big Mom Pirates. At that time, Judge’s thoughts were similar to the other underground world bosses—just thinking about self-preservation first.

But no one expected that Big Mom would die at Ian’s hands! Now that she was dead, which meant the Big Mom Pirates were finished, what should the Vinsmoke family, who had always pinned their hopes on Big Mom, do?

Should they turn to cooperate with Ian’s Dragon Hunter Pirates?

Thinking of this, Judge couldn’t help but look at Reiju not far away. Previously, when he came to Whole Cake Island, he had seen Ian and Reiju being intimate through a telescope and was already very upset, jumping with rage. That feeling of his daughter being taken away by another man is not something a father can easily accept. And now, if they have to cooperate with the Dragon Hunter Pirates and become allies, that would mean truly sending Reiju away…

Thinking of this, Judge felt a pang in his heart…
