Appearance

Dwarfing the Thousand Sunny several times over, the craft is built around an all-out dessert motif. Frosting coats its railings, ice cream cones cap the masts, and candy canes and wafers line the main deck, with a tall, candle-topped double cake rising behind the figurehead. That figurehead takes the shape of a crowned clown in a tricorne hat, while the rear castle is molded like a flan. Rows of cannons bristle along its flanks, and several of its parts, such as a cabin door, are themselves living things.

Personality

Being a homie, the ship is sentient and carries a disposition all its own. Its figurehead endlessly chants the word for "ship" in a cheerful manner, though it wore a frightened look once its starboard side took damage.

History

The Big Mom Pirates constructed the ship, and then Charlotte Linlin used her Soru Soru no Mi to grant it life, with its individual doors and parts each becoming separate homies. It first struck at the Thousand Sunny after Sanji and his companions fled Dressrosa, taking damage as the Straw Hats fought back, then trailed them to Zou and later carried the crew home to Whole Cake Island, having been tasked with bringing Sanji in for his wedding. When the Big Mom Pirates moved to corner their escaping enemies after the Whole Cake Chateau collapsed, the ship attacked off Cacao Island, but Wadatsumi swapped the targets so it wrecked the Sun Pirates' vessel instead.

During the Wano campaign it ferried Big Mom toward the country with carp hauling it up the surrounding waterfall, only for King of the Beasts Pirates to strike it down, flipping it over and sending Big Mom plunging into the sea. The crew avoided sinking and lingered near the falls. When the Fire Festival came, they tried the climb once more, but Marco knocked the ship back down, and a week afterward it came upon Cipher Pol.
