Chapter 874: Be My Servant

Arc: Whole Cake Island · Saga: Four Emperors (Yonko) · Released: —

Summary

The Straw-Hat escape party flees toward the Thousand Sunny aboard the commandeered tree-dragon homie Kingbaum while Big Mom — deranged by her wedding-cake craving — chases them personally, hurling her giant-style named attack “Ikoku Sovereignty” (the “spear of Elbaph”), which Luffy recognizes as “the attack the giants used.” Nami turns the chase: she lures Big Mom’s thundercloud homie Zeus off-leash by feeding him her own storm-clouds (“black balls”), flatters his vanity, and — fulfilling the chapter title — recruits him with “Will you be my servant?” Zeus defects. Kingbaum carries them through the Seducing Woods toward the coast but is incinerated by the sun-homie Prometheus for betraying Mama. The narrative cuts to the Big Mom Pirates locking down all of Totto Land: Mont-d’Or’s 10,000-soldier Mirro-World army, Tarte ships from Flavor and Liqueur islands, a sea-slug warning network, and Katakuri — shown waiting at the Sunny’s southwest-coast position “just in case.” Inside Bege’s body-fortress, Pudding demands her sister Chiffon bake a cake to soothe Mama’s craving — her true aim, she admits, is to stop Big Mom before she kills Sanji “and all of his friends.”

New reveals

• Nami recruits Zeus as her personal servant (p. 11): she tempts the thundercloud homie with her own weather-clouds and flattery; he abandons Big Mom — “I WILL!!!” — and follows the crew.
• Big Mom’s special homies are made from her own soul (pp. 10–11): “the cloud was created from Mama’s soul”; Zeus — “mama can ride me, because she gave me her soul.” Her weather-control faculty is literally a piece of Linlin.
• Big Mom’s attack “Ikoku Sovereignty” is the giants’ Elbaf weapon-form (pp. 3–6): she names it “the spear of Elbaph,” and Luffy says “that looked like the attack the giants used!!” — the same named technique Dorry & Brogy used in Little Garden.
• Charlotte Katakuri SHOWN on-page (p. 17): the scarf-faced Sweet Commander waits at the Sunny’s southwest-coast position to ambush “just in case,” despite his crew calling the crew’s escape odds “zero.”
• The Big Mom Pirates’ full Totto Land blockade (p. 16): Mont-d’Or’s 10,000-soldier Mirro-World force, Tarte ships from Flavor and Liqueur islands, the territory sea-slug warning network, and coastal battleships.
• Pudding’s true intent (pp. 18–19): hidden inside Bege, she demands Chiffon bake Mama a cake — not for Mama or the country, but to halt Big Mom before she kills Sanji (“him”) “and all of his friends.” Chiffon is “leaving this place, just like Lola.”

Open questions raised

• Why does Katakuri post a guard “just in case” against odds he calls “zero”? What does he know?
• Now that Zeus can be turned against Big Mom by appetite, how durable is her control over a homie made from her own soul?
• Will Chiffon agree to bake the cake — and can Pudding’s plan reach Sanji before Big Mom does?
