Super Card System-Chapter 701: Lifeless
It was precisely because Ian knew that Big Mom’s children were not united that he wasn’t too worried about letting them leave. Even if they became remnants, they wouldn’t be able to stir up much trouble.
Of course, this was based on the fact that Katakuri, Perospero, and Cracker were already dead. If these three were still alive, Ian wouldn’t dare to be so careless. But now that they were gone, the remaining children of Big Mom had no convincing leader.
At the docks of Whole Cake Island, several ships of the Big Mom Pirates departed. However, their ships that used to sing had now lost their souls and turned into ordinary vessels.
Moreover, with Big Mom’s death, the power of the Soul-Soul Fruit had lost its effect. All the Homies on the island had collapsed. For a moment, the entire Whole Cake Island seemed lifeless, eerily quiet.
But Crocodile didn’t care about that. He was already directing the members of the Dragon Hunter Pirates to move out and remove all the Big Mom Pirates’ flags on Whole Cake Island, replacing them with the Dragon Hunter Pirates’ flags.
This was the right of the victor. The Big Mom Pirates were finished, so Whole Cake Island naturally became the territory of the Dragon Hunter Pirates. How could they not fly the Dragon Hunter Pirates’ flag?
After the people of the Big Mom Pirates left, the underground bosses like Du Feld and Drug Peclo finally mustered the courage to come forward and offer their congratulations to Ian.
Du Feld, as their representative, cautiously and fawningly said, “Lord Ian, it’s truly an honor to witness the moment you became one of the Four Emperors. As expected of a young hero. When I first saw you yesterday, I knew you would achieve great things, but I didn’t expect to see it so soon…”
Listening to this guy even change the way he addressed him, Ian felt goosebumps all over and quickly waved his hand, saying, “Alright, alright, stop flattering me. Speak properly!”
Du Feld and Drug Peclo exchanged glances and then said nervously, “Lord Ian, please understand, we came to attend Big Mom’s tea party because we had no choice. We are not your enemies, nor do we wish to be. Please don’t mind the foolish behavior of that idiot Drug yesterday…”
At this time, Ian had already released his transformed state and returned to his normal body. He was strapping both the blade of Senbonzakura and Black Winged Demon to his left waist. Hearing Du Feld’s words, Ian glanced meaningfully at Drug Peclo, watching him become nervous, and then said, “You… want to ask me when I will let you leave, right?”
Du Feld and the others hurriedly nodded vigorously.
“Of course I can let you leave!” Ian patted Du Feld’s shoulder with a smile and said, “But, you all brought gifts when you came to attend the tea party. So, it wouldn’t make sense if, after witnessing me ascend to the position of an Emperor, there are no gifts, right?”
Du Feld and the others immediately understood and quickly smiled, saying, “Of course, of course, there will be gifts! When we return, we will certainly prepare generous gifts for you!”
“Then there’s no problem. You can go!” Ian said with satisfaction, waving his hand.
Du Feld and the others were relieved as if granted amnesty and hurriedly left. However, as Morgans hurried past Ian, Ian suddenly grabbed him.
“Lord… Lord Ian!” Morgans quickly took off his top hat and looked at him cautiously.
“If I didn’t see it wrong just now, you should have taken some photos, right?” Ian stroked his chin and asked him.
“Yes… yes!” Morgans was shocked, and cold sweat broke out. He thought Ian intended to confiscate his photos.
However, Ian didn’t do that. Instead, he patted his shoulder kindly and said, “Since you’re going to publish news, write it well, understand? But if I see any bad comments about us in your newspaper, I might pay you a visit…”
Morgans was drenched in cold sweat. Of course, he understood the meaning behind Ian’s words—it was a warning not to smear the Dragon Hunter Pirates. So he hurriedly nodded, “Rest assured, Lord Ian, I know what to do!”
Ian nodded and let him go.

Next, Ian had to deal with three people. One was Charlotte Pudding. Because her Memo Memo Fruit ability didn’t have much combat power, after escaping from Capone Bege’s castle earlier, she didn’t participate in the battle between the Big Mom Pirates and the Dragon Hunter Pirates. And after discovering that Big Mom had died, for some reason, her negative personality didn’t appear again. Instead, her normal personality was present, so she had been covering her face and crying all along. Even when her brothers and sisters fled Whole Cake Island in panic, she didn’t leave with them.
Or rather, no one thought to call her to leave together…
Of course, Ian understood what was going on. This little Pudding, who was originally Sanji’s intended bride, had been bullied in the Charlotte family since childhood because of her three eyes. How could Big Mom’s other children think of her when escaping? On the contrary, Pudding in her normal personality was very kind-hearted. Even though Big Mom had despised and scolded her because of her third eye, she was still her biological mother. So after seeing Big Mom’s death, she was still crying for her.
Of course, another person who was also crying was Capone Bege’s wife, Charlotte Chiffon. At this time, Capone Bege was holding her and comforting her.
Who knows if Big Mom, in the afterlife, would regret her past actions. The two daughters she disliked the most were now the ones crying for her death. Conversely, the children she favored had all escaped, and no one came to collect her corpse!
This irony was truly powerful…
When Ian walked towards her, Pudding was startled. She sat on the ground and couldn’t help but shrink back a few steps, looking at Ian with an uneasy expression.
“Stop crying!” Ian sighed. “Although I killed your mother, you should understand that if she didn’t die, it would be me who died!”
“I… I know…” Pudding lowered her head and said softly, “I don’t hate you…”
“If you hate me, there’s nothing I can do!” Ian said. “I know a little about your situation. Your negative personality might not think the same way.”
“No…” Pudding shook her head. “She… she doesn’t hate you either, because she… was scared!”

Ian was stunned for a moment, then shrugged and said, “Alright, since that’s the case, I allow you to collect Big Mom’s body. I believe you stayed behind for this, right?”
“Th… thank you!” Pudding finally showed a slight smile, wiped her tears, stood up, and said, “I thought you would kill me…”
“I’m not like Big Mom!” Ian said. “But after you leave, what do you plan to do? Go find your brothers and sisters?”
“No… I don’t know…” Pudding looked downcast.
She understood that her brothers and sisters wouldn’t accept her. When Big Mom was around, the Charlotte family could maintain a superficial unity, but now…
“Since you don’t know, find someone to marry and live a good life. You don’t seem like someone suited to be a pirate!” Ian said. “By the way, perhaps I can introduce you to a friend!”
This so-called friend was naturally that lecherous kappa, Sanji. Ian’s appearance had completely disrupted the original history. Now that the Big Mom Pirates were gone, Sanji naturally wouldn’t be forced into marriage to meet Pudding. So if possible, Ian wouldn’t mind introducing Sanji to her.
“N… no!” Pudding blushed instantly. “That’s too weird!”
Having your enemy introduce you to a friend? No matter how you think about it, it’s strange, right?
“Alright, if you don’t want to, forget it!” Ian shrugged and no longer paid attention to her. Sanji, your own wife, you work on it yourself!
Ian turned around, rubbed his forehead in frustration, and then shouted, “Caesar! Get over here!”
Caesar came over with a dejected look, and Ian angrily pointed at Charlotte Brûlée, who was clinging to him like a burden, and asked, “What’s going on with you two!?”
Ian felt he didn’t know whether to say it or not. Not to mention that troublesome guy Caesar, but behind him, Brûlée had a lovestruck expression that even a pig could understand. The question is, when and how did you two hook up!?
