Chapter 845

Furious over Cracker's loss, Big Mom calls Zeus and Prometheus to brew a thunderstorm and marches her Enraged Army toward Luffy, who refuses to budge despite Nami's pleas and the sweetened rain that begins to fall. In the Chateau, Big Mom indulges her knife-obsessed daughter Anana before joining the Vinsmokes and Pudding for lunch, voicing her delight at the alliance to be sealed the next day. Pudding quietly slips Sanji a note asking to speak alone.

As Luffy starts trading blows with the army, Sanji meets Pudding in her room. He removes his mask to show his battered face and explains his trap: his family never cared for him, escape would require beating Big Mom's entire crew, and refusing the marriage would endanger everyone he loves, especially Zeff. Having decided to stop struggling, he tells Pudding his dream is now to cut ties with the friends of his past thirteen years to keep them safe. When she vows their marriage will not turn out like his family life, Sanji embraces her and confirms he is ready to wed the following day.

Prometheus and Zeus conjure a powerful storm, and the Big Mom Pirates form an army that begins battling Luffy, including Bobbin, Opera, Galette, and Mont-d'Or. Amande is named as the wide-brimmed-hat woman seen gathering wedding cake ingredients, and more Charlotte members are revealed, among them the young Anana and the sons Dolce and Dragée. In their secret conversation, Pudding learns of Sanji's past and his plan to ask Big Mom to spare his friends, and Sanji decides to marry her.
