Chapter 169 When the fake is true, the truth is also false
Just as mentioned before.
As a top martial artist, Wang Zhi could always clearly perceive the enemy's most subtle killing intent and the most minute physical movements, as well as all related details, when facing an enemy.
That's the problem.
Because now, his perception tells him.
Every figure before him was a real, authentic individual.
Although he couldn't see their faces clearly.
But their killing intent, physique, vitality, and even their breathing were genuine.
"The ability to create clones?"
He murmured to himself, his muscles tense.
Instead of immediately attacking the figures in front of him, he began to breathe steadily.
He is waiting.
As for what he was waiting for, it was quite simple...
"Hey, Wang Zhi! What happened?"
Just a moment later, Wang Zhi heard the sound coming from outside the door behind him.
"boom!"
The next moment, the huge door was suddenly opened.
Thunderclouds and flames drifted into the room, and the massive figure of Napoleon's Big Mom, wielding a triangular hat and sword, appeared outside the door.
As a result, Wang Zhi's muscles relaxed slightly.
A smug smile appeared on his lips.
"Attack me in a cake castle... How could you even think of that?"
He chuckled as he looked at the figures that appeared out of thin air, as if he could detect a sense of panic in them.
That's right.
This is what he has been waiting for.
He didn't know who the dog in front of him was or what its abilities were.
But that doesn't matter.
He's currently on Cake Island, inside Cake Castle.
BIGMOM will be immediately aware of any disturbances that occur here.
"Such a foolish act, utterly reckless and ignorant of the consequences, should be punished!"
He spread his arms wide and laughed as he said this.
"Lingling, the Dog of the Zodiac is right here! Let's join forces and catch him!"
As he said this...
BIGMOM's massive figure, wielding a giant blade, charged into the house.
A surge of murderous intent rushed in like a tide, and a deafening roar exploded at that moment.
"The Spear of Elbaf - Mighty Nation!"
That secret martial art belonging to the giant race was the power that Wang Zhi knew BIGMOM possessed.
When they're teammates, they provide an incredibly reassuring strength.
But the next moment...
"!!!"
Wang Zhi's smile froze on his face.
Because at this moment he clearly sensed that the thunderous attack was aimed at no one else.
It was...himself!
The next moment, Wang Zhi immediately took action.
He was enveloped in jet-black Armament Haki as he tried to dodge.
But it was clear that he could not dodge this sudden attack.
"boom!"
The next moment, a powerful strike that overwhelmed the entire nation sent Wang Zhi flying.
"Boom!" "Boom!" "Boom!"
His figure pierced through the entire cake castle almost in an instant, and when he crashed down, a huge amount of blood gushed out.
His wide robe instantly shattered, revealing his body beneath.
Then...
"Um?"
'
At that moment, a hint of surprise flashed in BIGMOM's eyes.
Because at this moment she clearly saw that beneath Wang Zhi's long robe was a set of extremely close-fitting, jet-black armor.
The armor was clearly extremely sturdy, with each plate fitting snugly against his body and even rising and falling with his breath. As a result, even after such a heavy blow, the armor did not come off.
And at this moment...
"You...Lingling...what do you mean by this...?"
Despite suffering such a heavy blow, Wang Zhi slowly stood up.
He looked at the middle-aged woman in front of him and said through gritted teeth.
"You want to start a war with me..."
His words stopped mid-sentence, stuck in his throat.
Because at that moment, he clearly noticed it.
Before him, the figure of "BIGMOM" that had attacked him slowly faded away once again.
This time, along with her, the entire cake castle also vanished.
Yes.
The nearby corridor was filled with the aroma of desserts, the walls reflected the sugary light, the still and dreamy candles, and the dancing homies.
At that moment, they all vanished.
Instead, what appeared before Wang Zhi was a huge, distorted space.
There are reflective mirrors everywhere, and the ground is undulating like an irregular maze.
"A world in the mirror?"
Wang Zhi, of course, knew that one of Big Mom's daughters was Charlotte Brûlée, who was a mirror person who ate the Mirror-Mirror Fruit and could enter the mirror world.
So at that moment, he instinctively looked at the spot where he had just been attacked.
Sure enough, there was a huge mirror there.
Thus, the fact was practically laid bare before him.
"When did you start to have the illusion that this place is a 'cake castle'?"
From the very beginning, the moment he stepped through the door to his room, he was already in the world of mirrors.
Everything that followed was just...
"A hallucination!?"
Wang Zhi gritted his teeth: "How dare they humiliate me like this..."
He felt humiliated to be mocked like this.
But obviously...
"Bang!" "Thump!" "Tap!"
At this moment, the constant sound of footsteps and the figures appearing in front of him had already told him this.
"When did you start to have the illusion that I wanted to humiliate you?"
From the center of that vast crowd, the Dog stood there.
He looked at Wang Zhi: "I already told you, I'm going to... kill you."
As they were talking, Wang Zhi had already seen the figures in front of Xu Gou.
Charlotte Perospero, Charlotte Katakuri, Charlotte Owen...that's almost all of Big Mom's.
Members of the "Pirate Crew".
Wang Zhi hadn't even reacted yet.
"The Spear of Elbaf - Mighty Nation!"
He then heard another roar coming from above his head.
He looked up and saw "BIGMOM" falling from above, holding a long sword!
Having already endured that attack, Wang Zhi naturally didn't hesitate either.
He decisively leaped backward, stretched out his finger and drew a character on the ground.
【shield】
As soon as he finished writing, the ground in the mirror world suddenly rose up and transformed into a giant shield in an instant, blocking BIGMOM above his head.
"boom!"
The next moment, Napoleon's double-horned dagger clashed with the giant shield.
Then...
"Bang!"
Before Wang Zhi's wide eyes, the old woman's figure had vanished.
"It's fake again!?"
Wang Zhi was completely dumbfounded.
He couldn't understand the situation at all.
The old woman who attacked him was obviously a fake—but if she was a fake, how could that blow have actually hit his "Wei Guo"?
And if it's fake, then why is he in the mirror world? Did Brûlée betray him?
And it was at this very moment...
"Kill!" *N
He heard a howling shout.
When he turned around, he saw countless Charlotte family executives rushing towards him.
"Bang bang bang!"
"boom!"
The flintlock bullets and the deafening slashes all surged forth.
Every bullet, every slash, brought Wang Zhi such a vivid feeling.
so...
He wrote on the ground again, and this time he wrote two words.
【shield】
【wall】
The two words converged on the ground, and a huge shield wall instantly enveloped his body.
"Bang!"
"boom!"
The bullets and slashes struck with a deafening roar, and then... vanished without a trace once more.
"So...it was all an illusion after all!?"
Seeing this, Wang Zhi was furious, his gaze fixed on the distant Xu Gou: "Although I don't know how this guy managed to use Lingling's 'Mighty Nation' just now, these attacks should all be fake."
"This guy's Devil Fruit ability is related to illusions!"
As he murmured to himself, he leaped out from inside the shield wall without hesitation.
And it is at this very moment...
"laugh!"
Katakuri, wielding a trident, transformed into a sticky rice-like arm and reached out to grab Wang Zhi.
"bake!"
"Irving's" scorching fist also appeared beside Wang Zhi.
"It was fake after all—even if it was an illusion, how could a Devil Fruit ability be copied?"
Seeing this, Wang Zhi secretly confirmed his thoughts and then decisively chose to ignore the two people's attacks.
On the contrary, at this moment he was just waving his fist at the distant dog.
"Air Wave Fist - Tiger's Roar!"
He threw a punch, and a tiger-shaped gust of wind flew towards the Dog.
That was precisely Wang Zhi's choice: to strike at the heart of the enemy and eliminate that "dog" (a derogatory term for a malevolent spirit), rather than getting entangled with these illusions here.
But only for a moment.
"boom!"
He then saw a tall figure appear in front of the Dog.
It was a huge, muscular man holding a cookie shield.
Wang Zhi naturally recognized the other party as Charlotte Cracker, one of the three generals under Big Mom's command!
But the key point is not that, but rather...
"boom!"
The next moment, Wang Zhi was shocked to see Cracker's giant shield blocking Xu Gou's path, and then forcefully taking down his shockwave punch.
"Boom!"
With a tremendous tremor, huge cracks appeared on the cookie shield in his hand.
But after only a few moments, the cracked biscuit quickly healed itself.
[Paramecia Type - Cookie-Cookie Fruit (Fake)]
"It...it was blocked?"
This scene left Wang Zhi completely stunned.
Isn't it an illusion? Why can it block his attack?
"No...no...could it be...?"
It was only at this moment that Wang Zhi realized that possibility.
He instinctively turned around, but it was already too late.
"clatter!"
Because at this moment, Katakuri's arm, transformed into a sticky mochi, had already gripped his body.
[Paramecia-type Mochi Mochi Fruit (Fake)]
Wang Zhi: "!!!"
Then...
"boom!"
The fist, burning with scorching flames, suddenly slammed into Wang Zhi's face.
His face turned charred instantly, and the blood was evaporated by the high temperature as it gushed out!
[Paramecia Type - Heat-Heat Fruit (Fake)]
"Varied..."
At this moment, his wide eyes were filled with confusion.
Are these guys real or fake?
With such confusion, his figure was already blasted downwards by this punch.
