Charlotte Linlin

**Charlotte Linlin**, more widely known as **Big Mom**,[1] is the captain of the Big Mom Pirates[5] and the only female member of the Yonko.[2]

She is the matriarch of the Charlotte Family,[4] which makes up the infrastructure of her crew, including herself and her dozens of children.[13] She also rules over Totto Land as its queen,[5]seeking to form it into a utopia where all the world's races can live together in peace without experiencing discrimination or segregation.[14][15]

She was the last Yonko to be named; her epithet was first mentioned after the Battle of Marineford by Eustass Kid[3] and her real name by Pappug on Fishman Island.[1] Due to her actions and intentions, she is the main antagonist of the Whole Cake Island Arc and one of the central antagonists of the Yonko Saga.

## Appearance

Big Mom is a round, obese woman with a chin often hidden by her torso. She has an enormous physique, towering over the 9'1" Brook and able to hold his body in one hand as well as Jinbe, a three-meter tall fishman. Even as a five-year old child, Linlin was already massive to the point she was mistaken for a giant, and was as tall as giant children. She has moderately round, orange eyes, prominent eyelashes, and wears thick purple eyeshadow. She has a very wide mouth with full lips sporting red lipstick, large, round teeth,[2] and a long, thick tongue that often sticks out. She also has long, curly, and wild pink hair that falls halfway down her back,[16] as well as a beak-like nose, and plump, round cheeks.[2] She also sports a tattoo on her left shoulder and arm, consisting of a large, standard-shaped red heart framed by thin lines curled at their bottom ends, which all tops a far smaller heart.[5]

When she was five years old, Linlin towered over normal humans and was about the same size as a giant child. She had a much rounder face and had freckles on her cheeks, her hair was kept into two buns on both sides of her head. She wore a polka-dotted dress very similar to the one she currently wears, but with this one reaching her neck and having a bow at the top.[17] At the start of her pirating career, Linlin's hair grew longer and she donned a dark sunhat.[18]

At 28 years old, Linlin looked drastically different compared to both her early childhood days and her later years. She was remarkably slimmer and had a visible neck, chin, and jawline, and her features were significantly smaller and more proportionate to her face. Her hair was long, yet considerably less wild than in the present day, and she had a large strand of hair falling to the left side of her face. In Oda's depiction of her at this time, she wore a dark fedora with a polka dot pattern, a bandana, and a dark, polka dotted top with a captain's coat draped over her shoulders. [19]

At 48 years old, her neck was considerably larger and more muscular than it was at 28 and she had a much larger, more pronounced jaw. By this time, she had already begun wearing Napoleon and her polka-dotted bandana. [20]

Five years ago, at age 63, she wore a purple and pink vertical stripped dress.[21]

During her first appearance, Big Mom was shown to often drool large quantities of saliva when talking.[2][22] When in her regular fits of rage from not having a certain food at her direct disposal or simply when extremely furious her pupils take on a spiral appearance.[23][24]

Big Mom wears a large pink bicorne hat bearing a Jolly Roger on the front. She has worn two versions: the first design consisted of a standard skull with crossbones behind it, as well as large flame-like patterns to the sides,[25] whereas the current version, named Napoleon, has two crossed sabers instead of crossbones, possesses smaller lateral flame patterns, and is imbued with a fragment of her soul, causing its skull to change expressions and talk to Big Mom;[26][27] on its top, the hat is edged with a thick yellow streak, it has a strip snap-fastened to it,[28] and beneath it is a light, polka-dotted bandana fastened around Big Mom's head. Big Mom also dons a pink dress with red polka dots and white ruffles on its neckline and hemline,[29] with a wide, rippling white cape attached to its back that falls to the ground.[30] The outfit is completed with dark blue high heels, one turquoise pearl wristband on either wrist,[29] and golden, jeweled rings on all her fingers.[31]

Hours after her craving fit for wedding cake started, Big Mom was noted to have gotten slimmer and slimmer.[32][33]

## Personality

As Carmel noted, Linlin was once a truly kind-hearted person. At five years old, Linlin tried to help people and even animals such as a bear and a wolf. However, her benevolent intentions ended up with dangerously violent results due to her monstrous strength and innocent simplicity, as she slapped a bear for devouring a wolf, accidentally killing it in the process. She also fractured a giant's bones while trying to smack a mosquito on him. Linlin even cried in genuine remorse after she accidentally killed the bear. She would also try to "fix" the appearances of her fellow orphans, which was actually attempting to tear off their racial features, being unable to understand the harm she was inflicting. This has carried over to her current situation, as while her dream of creating a country without discrimination is noble, she's willing to use violence and extortion to force people to follow her commands.

Despite her elderly age of 68, Linlin has childish tendencies. After capturing Brook, Linlin playfully patted and caressed the living skeleton and carried Brook with her to sleep at night like a teddy bear and cried hysterically when she thought Brook had died. When Carmel's photo was destroyed and shown to her, Linlin even broke down crying like a baby as she recalls the time when she was a five year old girl, questioning why Carmel left her behind at Elbaf.

She refers to herself with "ore" (おれ?), a very masculine way of saying "I", instead of the gender-neutral "watashi" (私?) that most other females use.[13] Like many others, Big Mom has a distinct style of laughing: "Mamamama".[14][15][16] However, she has also laughed in a normal "Hahahahahaha" style[17][16] (occasionally with a drawn-out "Haaaaaaaa" at the beginning,[18][15]) and has even combined it with her unique laughter in the form of "Haaaaaahahamamamama".[19][20]

### Gluttony

Big Mom is an extremely gluttonous pirate who loves to eat sweets above all else[22] and has all the islands under her external protection pay her with metric tons of whatever kind of confectionery or pastry they can produce.[23] Even as a child Linlin was easily persuaded to stay on Elbaf after her parents allowed her to eat as much sweets as she wanted. She is obsessed with sweets to the point of destroying entire countries for failing to deliver them.[24] In fact, she loves her sweets so much that her subordinates or her territory holds less importance compared to it.[25] Despite this, she does not lose control when Luffy claimed to have eaten all the candy that Fishman Island owed her; instead, she correctly deduced that he was lying in order to protect Fishman Island.[26] Big Mom is particularly fond of wedding cakes, as she ordered a gigantic wedding cake to be made simply as a treat to celebrate the acquisition of the technology of the Germa Kingdom after she slaughtered the Vinsmokes and even when sleeping, she would sleep talk about eating wedding cakes. According to Pudding, Big Mom will even get enraged and destroy the whole wedding hall if anyone made a mess of the wedding cake.[27] When the wedding cake was presented during the ceremony, Big Mom greatly expressed gluttonous joy and excitement to the point she salivated.[28] True to Pudding's words, Big Mom went berserk with tremendous fury to the point of killing several chefs in a fit of rage right after Luffy ruined the wedding cake.

#### Eating Disorder

Big Mom suffers from an unknown disease dubbed as an "Eating Disorder"(食いわずらい *Kuiwazurai*?), in which she becomes obsessively fixated on a "Sweet Theme", and will go on a crazed rampage in search of what she wants to eat. She has suffered from this disorder since before she was 5 years old, being the reason she was banished from her home country. While in this state, she will destroy everything in her path — including her castle, her subordinates, and even her own children — until she receives the food she wants.[29] When rampaging, her pupils become crazed and swirly.[30] Once her cravings are satiated, she becomes more affable and retains no memory of her actions during her rampage.[31]

Big Mom seems to retain a small amount of consciousness in this state, as Perospero managed to convince her to chase after the Straw Hats by lying that they had stolen a spare wedding cake (the food she desired at the time). However, the fact that she bought into such a lie so easily shows she lacks rationality.[32] She's also capable of giving out simple orders to homies to aid her in the pursuit of any perceived targets.[33][34] However, to some extent, she is capable of recognizing others in this state, as she recognized her daughters Pudding and Chiffon while furiously questioning them for being with the Straw Hats.

### Hedonism

Stemming from her love for sweets, Big Mom is extremely fond of having tea parties which she dearly looks forward to from the bottom of her heart as noted by Jinbe. Thus, Big Mom is extremely generous to people who attend her tea parties, joyfully offering a large variety of pastry delicacies and extravagant drinks for them to eat and drink as much as they want and can be murderously enraged if her tea parties are ruined in any way.

She is very jolly when in a good mood and enjoys celebrating the fulfillment of her ambitions with song and dance, but her cheerfulness is tempered with horrendous malice and brutality, as for every Tea Party she held, Linlin sends her subordinates to specific places to plunder unique ingredients for her tea party, while also ordering them to massacre as many people as possible while robbing the ingredients, causing numerous people to end up dead or viciously brutalized in the process.[35] Big Mom has a particular penchant for singing malicious songs in a light-hearted and happy tone, as she sang Bloody Party together with her homies and some musicians of the Big Mom Pirates while planning Pudding's wedding.

### Ambition

Inspired by Carmel's words (though she misunderstood them), Big Mom also desires to create a nation where all races can happily live together[36]due to wanting a "family" comprised of individuals of all races that she can dine with at eye level with via Caesar Clown's gigantification research.[37]Big Mom is so dedicated to this dream that she is willing to invest massive amounts of money in Caesar's research, even building a working replica of Punk Hazard's laboratory in the event that it was destroyed and offering more financial support after Caesar is brought to her with no results; however, her fixation on this dream rendered her oblivious to how Caesar was simply embezzling money from her for his own indulgences.[38] However, no giants live in Totto Land due to them hating Big Mom, especially after a botched arranged marriage when Lola ran away from giant PrinceLoki, and Big Mom briefly became enraged when Vinsmoke Judge mentioned them; she has long-since given up on any attempt to reconcile with them.[39] Her obsession with diversity is not just limited towards her family; she also wishes to collect rare and unique animals for her own pleasure, as explained by her eighth daughterwho claims that Big Mom would not be satisfied with just having all the races of the world for herself.[40]

### Business Savvy

When calm and thinking rationally, Big Mom possesses a rather businesslike mindset and strongly believes that a pirate must accept no compromises or delays for something they want.[41] Pappug thinks she is protecting Fishman Island with a business perspective since the deals made with the candy qualify as racketeering[42], though she prioritizes sweets over money and treasure; she initially refused an alternative payment of treasure when Fishman Island's monthly candy tribute could not be met[43], only accepting out of amusement once Monkey D. Luffy openly stood up to and defied her over the payment.[44][45]

This even extends to her allies and crew; should one of them choose to leave her crew or cut ties with her, Big Mom forces them to give up something precious to them as compensation, uncaring of their reason for leaving to begin with.[46] Similarly, she expects all citizens of Totto Land to sacrifice portions of their lifespan as the price of residing in her country, further illustrating her desire to be compensated for everything she provides.[47]While Big Mom does not take much interest in money and treasures compared to sweets, she does have a strong liking in collecting special treasures that are rare and legendary such as the Tamatebako,[48] as shown when she learned than an intruder broke into her treasure room, her first concern was the Tamatebako.[49]

Big Mom has proven herself to be extremely treacherous and cunning, as she is willing to break promises and betray potential allies to get what she wants. While putting up a fake front of desiring an alliance with the Vinsmoke Family, she has no intention of marrying off one of her favorite daughters, Pudding, to create this alliance. Instead, mother and daughter plotted together to lure the other family in to massacre them during the wedding ceremony, in order for Big Mom to acquire the Germa Kingdom's cloning technology, a feat they intend to achieve by having the kingdom parked within their territory, all the while without needing to give Pudding to the Vinsmoke family. Pudding also claimed that Luffy and Nami are not meant to leave Whole Cake Island alive either, thus showing that Big Mom was intent on breaking her promise with Sanji about sparing their lives in exchange for his cooperation with this wedding.[50] Her seeming willingness to let her crew members go in return for something they possess is also a sham, as she actually demands lifespan amounts beyond what a single person is able to give her, resulting in her killing them and also taking the lifespans of the people closest to that person.[51] Should she somehow not be able to get any lifespan, she will throw out the deal altogether and physically attack the person.[52]

### Selfishness

Big Mom is also immensely selfish and obsessed with power; her marriage of Pudding to Sanji is solely for the sake of gaining access to the advanced combat technology of Germa 66[53], a process which she is willing to repeat with all her children in order to strengthen her own crew.[54] When a marriage is threatened or annulled, Big Mom will become incredibly angry at the people responsible and aim to kill them mercilessly, even if they are her own children; the larger the power she fails to gain, the angrier she will become. This lust for power stems from her desire to overthrow the other Yonko and ultimately become the Pirate King.[55] Big Mom has some interest in the Poneglyphs despite being unable to read them, knowing they are the potential key to Raftel.[56]

Another sign of her selfishness is that while she conceived Pudding with her Third-eyed father for the sole purpose of using Pudding's third eye to read Poneglyphs in order to reach Raftel, she still insulted Pudding for her third eye, as seen when she disgustingly called it creepy, and ordered her to grow out her bangs to conceal it, while being completely uncaring of her feelings. She also discarded Pound after conceiving twin daughters with him and even allowed him to be killed. She is also willing to completely disregard her children's wishes on Marriage for the sole sake of strengthening her crew.[54] She seems to recognize others by their lineage first and foremost, as she often speaks of others in terms of their relation to their parents[57] and grandparents.[58]She also deceived Sanji into thinking that she would release his friends after he agreed to marry Pudding.[59]

Linlin apparently does not like to talk about things that are personal and gets angry when people question her. When Judge pointed out that he did not see any giants in Totto Land, Big Mom briefly gave an angry look before dodging the subject by claiming that he overlooked them.[60] When a first time guest asked her about Mother Carmel, she furiously responded to his inquiry by knocking him out with Haoshoku Haki.[61]

Linlin is also extremely hypocritical. While she hates people who do not keep their promises with her and will resort to ruthlessness towards said individuals, she has shown that she will not hesitate to lie or deceive others just to get what she wants. During her conversation with Jinbe, she states that a pirate should be free to do whatever they want, yet she forced him to pay a huge price which could result in his death. She also forces her own children to marry others without taking their feelings into account and refuses to give her crewmates the choice to leave her crew alive.

### Cruelty

An extremely ruthless and unstable woman, Big Mom is infamous for destroying countries over slight infractions (though most often when they fail to make their monthly payment of sweets), disregarding any and all reasons for the failure while rationalizing that she despises people unable to keep their promises, which makes her a hypocrite as Big Mom herself does not keep her own promises.[50] Generally, there are two things she dislikes: bitter treats, and invitees not showing up for her tea party.[63] Demonstrating herself to be immensely brutal, she does not forgive those who refuse invitations to her tea parties, and she will kill people precious to the absentee as a "present".[64] She does not accept excuses of any kind, even if it was given in advance, nor if the reason was as important as attending a loved one's funeral. Even after dealing such traumatizing damage to an absentee, she would still send them an invitation to the next tea party and expect them to attend, as Jigrawas given one more even after Big Mom killed his father.[65] Due to her reputation for brutal violence, even Caesar, who is dangerously known for his malevolent madness, is extremely terrified of her. Vinsmoke Judge also considered Linlin a madwoman. Even some of her children such as Brûlée and Opera are deathly fearful of Linlin as they are aware that their mother is capable of ruthlessly slaughtering her own children should they ever defy her. Big Mom particularly enjoyed killing people by taking away their lifespans, claiming it to be her favorite food. She gleefully killed Zepo in this manner and while she spared Pedro from immediate death, she took away up to 50 years of his entire life away, leaving Pedro a few short years left to live. She also tried to kill Jinbe in a similar manner and was extremely enraged that her powers had no effect on him. Though Sanji participated in the wedding due to the potential threats to those he cared about, Big Mom has no interest of attacking the Baratie and killing the head chef and Sanji's savior, Zeff.[66]

When it comes to dealing with enemy pirate crews, Big Mom specifically instructs her children and other subordinates to give her enemies false hope before crushing their spirits as brutally as possible.[67] Big Mom is highly confident in her power and fails to see most crews as even a remote threat due to her and her crew's capabilities.[68] Big Mom's malevolence extends to encouraging violent behavior in her children; when Ananawanted knives to cut up her stuffed animal, Big Mom immediately asked two of her sons to bring knives to her.[69] She also encourages and rewards deceitful behavior in her children, as her daughter Charlotte Pudding claims that Big Mom favors and pampers her due to her ability to lie convincingly.[70] On the occasion that she does uphold her promises and deals, if the other party fails to uphold or goes directly against their part in the agreement, Big Mom will display immense rage and will not hesitate to inflict the worst punishment upon them.[71]

Although she has no problem with having her children and subordinates attack her enemies, Big Mom will directly go after anyone who threatens anything extremely important to her, including things like her Poneglyphs and wedding cakes. Should she personally target someone, Big Mom's pride will cause her to get extremely angry if someone prevents her from attacking to the point of pushing the obstacle aside even if it is one of her children.[72]

She coldly discards her husbands once their children are born, never giving them the chance to either hug them or take part in raising them. This is because she considers them "outsiders" to the family, even passing this belief down to her children who don't care for their fathers or step-fathers.[73]

Additionally, despite her ambition to create a nation where all races can live together, Big Mom herself is not above discrimination as shown by her treatment against her own daughter Pudding for her third eye, which Big Mom herself finds creepy, and even cruelly convinced her to grow her bangs to cover it.

### Psychological Crisis

Big Mom is incredibly attached to Carmel, and became deeply heartbroken when the Holy Mother and other orphans of Sheep's House disappeared on her sixth birthday celebration. Adoring Carmel so much that Linlin would place a portrait of her in front of an empty seat during all Tea Parties, if this portrait is damaged in anyway, Linlin would enter a psychological crisis that would leave her fragile, physically and mentally. She would cry so loud at the damage inflicted at the only keepsake she had of Carmel that she became completely unaware of her surroundings, such as when Bege attempted to assassinate her. Unaware of the fact that she was responsible for Carmel's death, Linlin would wallow in devastation at this disappearance during her crisis.

Although Linlin's emotional stress at Carmel's disappearance is critical for her, she takes her love of sweets to an equal level, as she entered a state of confusion between her mental breakdown and eating disorder when both Carmel's portrait and wedding cake were destroyed, in which she became completely unresponsive to everything around her. Only when Luffy showed her the damaged portrait did Linlin's mental state tip over to her crying and reminiscence of her foster mother's disappearance. She was so angry at the destruction of the only portrait of Carmel that she swore to never forgive the Straw Hat Pirates for causing it.

## Overview

As one of the Yonko, Big Mom is one of the four most powerful pirates in the world.[13] As the only female member, this effectively makes Big Mom the single most powerful female pirate in the world. The Gorosei has stated that she is one of the few people capable of stopping Blackbeard.[14] Even the Straw Hat Piratesrecognize that she could crush them quickly and easily if they fought her recklessly.[15][16]

Through her strength as one of the most powerful pirates, Big Mom has managed to amass a very powerful crew,[17] as well as several strong subordinates such as Jinbe, a fishman and former Shichibukai,[18] and Capone Bege, one of the members of the Worst Generation.[19] She possesses considerable influence within the Underworld as well, having connections to the Vinsmoke Family, which leads the legendary Germa 66.[20] Those who marry her children automatically become part of her crew.[21]

While under Big Mom's protection, Fishman Island is protected from pirate attacks, indicating a powerful influence similar to that of the late Whitebeard.[22] She is known to destroy entire countries over sweets[23] and is intimidating enough that even her underlings Pekoms and Tamago, who are powerful in their own right, are afraid of talking to her when she is angered.[24] In fact, almost everyone, including her own children, has been shown to fear her. Ironically, this fear makes Big Mom stronger due to the nature of her Devil Fruit powers.[25]

Big Mom's overall influence allows her to gather information about the backgrounds of people she is interested in, with said information being used to issue threats and demands.[26] It is said that even demons would attend her tea parties if they were invited.[27]

At the early age of six, Linlin's first known bounty was 50,000,000, implying that even at this time she was considered a real threat. This bounty later increased to at least 500,000,000.[28]

## Physical Abilities

Big Mom has immense superhuman physical strength, demonstrated by her ability to climb tall buildings despite her massive size,[29] throw punches with tremendous destructive power,[30] and hurl Prometheus with extreme force using only a single arm.[31] When she was just five years old, she was strong enough to kill a large bear instantly with a single smack, merely intending to scold the animal, as well as break several of a giant's bones by trying to slap a mosquito on their back. When suffering from her cravings, she could destroy a village in Elbaf and defeat several armed giants without a single scratch, being described by Jorl as an "evil spirit in the form of a child".[32] She was strong enough to not only break Jorl's sword with her fist when he tried to attack her, but also grab the giant's beard, flip him over her shoulder, and smash him into the ground with enough force to mortally wound him. Carmel believed she had the potential to become an Admiral or Fleet Admiral of the Marines.[33]

According to Bege, she can single-handedly wreak havoc on towns and sink battleships without any effort. During a craving-caused rampage of hers in Sweet City, it was estimated that, shortly, she might even bring down her mountain-sized castle itself if no one were to stop her.[34] Katakuri also noted that his mother can destroy Totto Land itself and cause even worse unimaginable destruction. She was also able to break through the metal doors of her castle's treasure room, which even her daughter and Sweet Commander Smoothiecould not break through, just by walking into them.[35] Even while sleeping, she could smash the stone floor around her bed by simply tossing and turning, as well as do the same with a slap while half-asleep to merely kill a fly.[36] Big Mom can also easily damage Bege's Big Father fortress form, which has immense defensive power. Later on, Big Mom easily defeated Germa 66 commanders Vinsmoke Judge, Vinsmoke Niji, and Vinsmoke Yonji by herself, the latter two being genetically enhanced superhumans, without incurring so much as a scratch on her person.[37]

Big Mom also possesses tremendous superhuman durability due to her extremely tough skin, being compared by Vinsmoke Sanji and Capone Bege to an iron balloon. She is able to destroy cities, sink ships, and resist cannon and gun fire without receiving a single injury. It is said that no weapon can pierce her skin. However, it loses its toughness completely when she is in a psychological crisis, such as when someone dropped Mother Carmel's photograph that she holds dear to the point that just falling to her knees could cause her to bleed.[38]She easily destroyed Vinsmoke Judge's spear with her teeth when he tried to attack her with it.[39] Big Mom later took a massive thunderbolt from Zeus that was empowered by Nami's Weather Egg, which was powerful enough to create a giant crater in the ground, and was completely unfazed by it.[40] This is a tremendous feat, as a regular unenhanced thunderbolt from Zeus was powerful enough to knock out Vinsmoke Judge in one hit.[41] Later on, she withstood the force of Pedro's suicidal explosion - a massive explosion powerful enough to grievously injure Charlotte Perospero, despite him wearing a Candy Armor to mitigate its effects - only to rise again absolutely unscathed. Shortly afterwards, she took a point-blank hit from the Thousand Sunny's Coup de Burst and was once again completely unaffected by it. While in an emaciated and hungry state, she also took the full force of Jinbe's Buraikan at point blank range but quickly recovered.

Big Mom's body possess an immensely powerful metabolism. As a child, she consumed enormous amount of Semla prior to the fasting for the Winter Solstice Festival, but she quickly felt hunger after only three days. While suffering from a craving for wedding cake, Linlin had become slimmer hours after her craving fit started.

Big Mom also possesses the ability to emit an extremely loud shriek when psychologically destabilized.[42] Her scream is powerful enough to destroy nearby buildings, as well as completely incapacitate those around her, causing them to either faint or cover their ears in pain, including individuals as powerful as Luffy or Sweet Commanders Smoothie and Katakuri. Four of the Vinsmoke siblings, who were genetically enhanced to have superhuman fortitude, were also shaken by her scream until they were given earplugs. The sheer pressure from her scream, along with her Haoshoku Haki, can destroy incoming projectiles before they can reach her body, thus providing a form of defense in lieu of her usual bodily toughness.

## Devil Fruit

Big Mom has acquired the powers of the Soru Soru no Mi after the death of its previous owner, Carmel,[43] a Paramecia-type Devil Fruit that allows her to manifest the soul of whomever she touches into an ethereal substance. She can grab hold of this substance and extract it from the victim, taking away their lifespan by an amount of her choice and absorbing it into herself. If taken at a sufficient number, it will kill the victim.[44] However, this ability has no effect on anyone who does not fear her as Big Mom was unable to take away Jinbe's lifespan because he showed no fear towards her.[45]

She can put harvested souls into non-living things in order to give them life or into animals in order to give them human abilities. Those creatures are named Homies. This makes her power similar to the Kage Kage no Mi. However, unlike the user of the Kage Kage no Mi, she cannot put souls into dead corpses or the body of another human. She can also create incarnations of her own soul that will complete the task of collecting souls.[46]

### Special Homies

With her Devil Fruit powers, Big Mom used fragments of her own soul to create three special homies that are far more powerful than ones created with other people's souls: Zeus, a thundercloud she summons with her left hand; Prometheus, a sun she summons with her right hand; and Napoleon, a bicorne she wears on her head. Zeus and Prometheus allow Big Mom to unleash extremely powerful flames and lightning bolts, and can also combine their powers to manipulate the weather and create massive storms as a manifestation of Big Mom's unstoppable rage.[47] She can also ride Zeus to fly at high speeds.[48] Napoleon can relay information received from other homies to Big Mom,[49] and it also contains a retractable blade that it can use to both attack on its own[50] and for Big Mom to wield in combat.[51]

## Haki

Linlin can utilize and has shown mastery over two types of Haki.

### Haoshoku Haki

Big Mom possesses Haoshoku Haki.[42] She was first seen using it at Sanji and Pudding's wedding to knock a man out for questioning her relationship with Mother Carmel.[52] When her portrait of Carmel was destroyed, a distraught Big Mom unleashed her Haki, which, along with her loud screams, incapacitated most of the party guests.[53]

### Busoshoku Haki

Big Mom has immense mastery of Busoshoku Haki. By hardening her arm, she could easily block Luffy's Gear Fourth Kong Gun, a tremendous feat as Luffy's Kong Gun is powerful enough to break through powerful Haki based defenses of highly skilled Busoshoku Haki users such as Doflamingo, Cracker and Katakuri. Like Luffy's Gear Fourth, her Busoshoku sports flame marks at its ending.[54]

## Swordsmanship

Big Mom's bicorne, Napoleon, can retract a blade and become her personal weapon.[55] Using it in combination with her monstrous strength allows her to unleash powerful shockwaves that can cause massive destruction.[56] None have yet shown to prove able to withstand Napoleon's powerful strikes, as even Jinbe was overwhelmed by the blade despite putting up his best defenses. Napoleon can also be engulfed in Prometheus' flames to increase its attack power.[57]

## TMNT X Pokemon

She's one of the major villains you will face s you progress the game. When you visit Totto Land, you and your friends are immediately greeted by guards and thus putting into a cage.
