    The Big Mom Pirates are an extremely infamous and powerful pirate crew led by their captain, Charlotte Linlin, better known as "Big Mom", formerly one of the Four Emperors. They are in control of the powerful nation of Totto Land, with their captain ruling it as its queen and their base of operations being Whole Cake Island, the country's main island. The captain agreed to an alliance with the Beasts Pirates for plans to take over the world. However, the captain was defeated during the Raid on Onigashima by two members of the Worst Generation, and she was subsequently stripped of her position as an Emperor, leaving the crew's status unknown.

    Due to their actions and role, they are the main antagonists of the Whole Cake Island Arc and one of the central antagonist groups of the Whole Cake Island Saga.

    The Big Mom Pirates' Jolly Roger is a skull with thick lips and wearing a pirate tricorne based on their captain's appearance, on a fluffy background (which could represent Linlin's hair in some fashion) with several candy canes crossed behind it (one on the right, three stacked together on the left), in place of normal crossbones. A tree is seen coming out of the cane on the bottom right.

    Like the Whitebeard Pirates, the Big Mom Pirates have a simpler Jolly Roger, consisting of the normal skull-and-crossbones, but retaining the large lips of the original.

    The Big Mom Pirates are organized around a central group of pirates sailing directly under the former Emperor Big Mom, and various subordinate crews working directly on her orders, allowing the crew to operate as a massive pirate fleet. Specifically, the Big Mom Pirates are built heavily around the members of the Charlotte Family, with the children comprising a large portion of her crew as well as her officers and most capable fighters; however, it is unknown exactly how many of her children are direct members of her crew. Big Mom is seemingly addressed by all of her crew, family or not, as "Mama".

    The crew's hierarchy is similar to the Donquixote Pirates and Beasts Pirates, with there being a captain, several elite/executive officers, many regular officers, and a legion of lower-ranking grunts. In this case, Big Mom acts as the captain, with the Three Sweet Commanders working directly under her. In turn, other children of the Charlotte Family and combatants answer to them. The bulk of the crew is composed of tens of thousands of soldiers, from homies (especially the chess peacekeepers) to people of various humanoid races.

    Aside from Totto Land, which is Big Mom's central kingdom, all territories under the Big Mom Pirates' protection must pay a monthly fee of ten tons of confections.

    The Big Mom Pirates are known to have or have had the following territories under their protection:

    •Totto Land (an archipelago composed of 35 islands under the rule of Big Mom and her crew)

    In Totto Land's sea, territorial sea slugs send out automatic Den Den Mushi warning signals for nearby ships to warn them about the danger of having entered Big Mom's immediate territory. Unauthorized entry is not tolerated, and intruders would be shot down.

    Captained by an Emperor, the Big Mom Pirates were recognized as one of the four most powerful pirate crews in the world. Several members shown have been proven to be formidable fighters, able to battle and take down notable, infamous rookie pirates such as Caribou and some members of the Worst Generation. Due to Big Mom being able to place souls into animals and inanimate objects, she has innumerable legions of warriors known as "Homies" that can overwhelm even strong opponents, especially within Totto Land. The Sun Pirates, a powerful crew of fish-men, were frightened at the possibility falling out of favor with Big Mom and fled when their captain officially severed ties with her. According to Skull, the pirate-obsessed nerd in One Piece novel A, Big Mom is considered to have the "strongest family in the world".

    Furthermore, Linlin has many islands under her control besides the archipelago of Totto Land, and the citizenry of Fish-Man Island, fearing her wrath, agreed to produce the ten tons of candy she orders every month. It is common knowledge to everyone in the New World that Big Mom's "invitation" to her tea parties is in name only, and that it is an absolute summons order. It is said that even demons from hell will attend the party when invited by Big Mom. Refusal would result in the invitee being sent a box containing the head of someone close to them, even if that person is someone of notable strength or in another part of the sea beyond the Calm Belts and Red Line, demonstrating just how far-reaching the crew's power is.

    As a former Emperor, Big Mom partners with several crews and groups through political marriages to increase her crew's military strength, such as the Fire Tank Pirates and Sun Pirates, although both of those crews went on to betray her. The crew is also well-connected with Underworld activities, especially through its involvement in brokering, as Big Mom would appear affluent enough to commission the likes of Caesar Clown into conducting clandestine research on her behalf with proper funding. Pekoms and Tamago were also seen paying attention to Caesar Clown's broadcast of an illegal chemical weapon of mass destruction. Big Mom also attempted to form an alliance with the notorious Vinsmoke Family to get the technology of Germa 66, but after failing to assassinate the family the two groups became enemies.

    Even without Big Mom in the equation, the rest of the crew carries enough power and influence to do a wide range of activities. Big Mom fully entrusted some of her subordinates to massacre entire islands just to steal cake ingredients, and the members of her crew are very confident in their ability to dispose of enemies without Big Mom having to get involved at all. Four powerful pirate crews belonging to the Worst Generation invaded Big Mom's territory, with three of them forced to flee and the Fire Tank Pirates becoming subservient; of those crews, only the Fallen Monk Pirates actually managed to make any impact in their invasion, and all of them were quickly dispatched before they could hear from or lay eyes on Big Mom herself. Charlotte Brûlée compared the vast difference in power to hitting a brick wall, saying that challenging them would only cause the challenger to fall into despair. The fact that many of Big Mom's subordinates are frightened of her despite having great power of their own indicates that the full strength of the crew is well beyond what most other pirates can reach or even fathom.

    The military might of the crew is immense, consisting of tens of thousands of homies and soldiers. A mere fraction of Big Mom's forces was able to overpower a fatigued Monkey D. Luffy, although not without suffering heavy casualties, including the destruction of most of the Chess Peacekeepers. When Big Mom joined her crew in battling Luffy, Sanji, Capone Bege, and the entire Vinsmoke Family, they won easily with no casualties. Another testament to the size of the crew is when the Germa 66 defeated Charlotte Nusstorte and his 10,000-strong army, the rest of the crew was unfazed by the enormous loss, not even noticing it. When Linlin personally arrived at Wano along with some of her strongest children, Kaidou mentioned that it could escalate into an all-out war with his own crew.

    The sheer number of ships in the crew's possession gives them considerable naval superiority over most pirate crews; even though some were sunk by Eustass Kid, and Daifuku himself destroyed many Tartes when trying to kill Carrot, these losses did not seem to impact the crew in any noticeable way. Each island in Totto Land has its own Tarte, but there seem to be many more in reserve, and a single fleet of these ships is enough to completely besiege an enemy vessel. The crew, particularly the officers who command fleets, have proven capable of effectively coordinating their ships' movements. With their Territorial Sea Slugs making it impossible for any ship to sail through Totto Land undetected, the crew's fleet makes it difficult, if not impossible, to invade Totto Land and especially Whole Cake Island, as well as escape. The Straw Hat Pirates were only able to easily make it to Whole Cake Island because Big Mom was luring them into a trap there, and Urouge managed to escape after being presumed deceased. The crew also manufactures special equipment and weaponry that they use to deal with unusual enemies such as special tights worn by Tamago that protect him from electric attacks such as Pedro's Electro or the Walker guns and Candy Jacket Bullets designed to pierce the armored exoskeletons of the Vinsmoke children.

    Totto Land Grand Fleet

    The Totto Land Grand Fleet is a massive fleet of thousands of ships captained by the Big Mom Pirates. The most prominent ship in the fleet is the Queen Mama Chanter, while members of the Charlotte Family have been seen commanding large battleships bearing their names on the sails. The bulk of the fleet consists of Tartes and paddle ships.

    Other Ships

    Two allied ships were sank by Eustass Kid a few days before the Straw Hat Pirates arrived at Fish-Man Island.

    Past

    62 years ago, Big Mom began her pirating career at the age of six after unknowingly causing the disappearance of her foster family. Streusen witnessed the incident and decided to befriend her and managed to influence her. They eventually went out to sea to create Linlin's dream utopia, and Linlin created her main weapons Zeus and Prometheus to attack villages. Linlin received her first bounty of 50,000,000 and as she grew more powerful and fearsome, her bounty raised to 500,000,000. Over 40 years ago Linlin herself joined the Rocks Pirates, but eventually left when the captain died in the God Valley Incident, and then at least 33 years ago either starting or continuing with the Big Mom Pirates. Over the course of 42 years, Big Mom gave birth to 85 children from 43 husbands. While she would discard all her husbands, many of her children would become members of the Big Mom Pirates, and she would marry them off to other crews and organizations to form a blood-bond between them, automatically recruiting them into her army. With a network of powerful pirate crews and her children as the backbone of the very central crew, Linlin would eventually earn her moniker as "Big Mom" and become one of the Four Emperors. She never allowed anyone to leave her crew alive, instead of presenting what she deems as a fair compromise to those who wished to but rigging it to ensure the defectors and the associated organization would lose their lives. At some point, Big Mom commissioned the rogue scientist Caesar Clown to research artificial gigantification, that she may satisfy her long-held dream to have a Tea Party with her children at eye-level. Caesar's efforts were able to accelerate and extend the growth of children, but with long-term health issues. Knowing that permanent artificial growth was impossible, Caesar took the money anyway to finance a lifestyle of excess. Three years before the start of the series, the Big Mom Pirates overwhelmingly defeated the trespassing Nox Pirates, and Pekoms defected from the latter to the former. While Big Mom killed Zepo of the Nox Pirates, she had mercy on the captain, Pedro, and gave him a few more years to live by not taking all of his remaining lifespan. At some point, Big Mom and Vinsmoke Judge arranged a political alliance between the Charlotte and Vinsmoke families. Per Big Mom's policy, the alliance was to be sealed with a wedding between the third Vinsmoke son, Sanji, and the 35th Charlotte daughter, Pudding, during a future Tea Party. However, Big Mom's true plan was to massacre the Vinsmokes during the wedding in order to gain full control over their kingdom's advanced technology. The wedding has been continuously delayed due to the Vinsmoke Family being unable to locate Sanji who has been living under a low profile in Baratie.

    During the Timeskip

    Sometime after the Summit War of Marineford, Big Mom's crew agreed to protect Fish-Man Island in exchange for ten tons of sweets a month. Around this time, the remnants of the Sun Pirates, including Jinbe, would come to work under Big Mom, although she primarily let them do as they pleased. Also, during the time-skip, Eustass Kid, Scratchmen Apoo, Capone Bege, and Urouge attempted to invade Big Mom's territory. Other than the Fire Tank Pirates, who allied themselves with Big Mom, the crews of Kid, Apoo, and Urouge were forced out of Big Mom's territory. Urouge managed to defeat one of the former Four Sweet Commanders but was later defeated by Charlotte Cracker. Sometime before the Straw Hat Pirates arrived to Fish-Man Island, Kid sank two of Big Mom's allies' ships.

    Since the crew is named after the captain's epithet, it shares the same inconsistency with its name spelling. In the magazine release of Chapter 930, the crew's name was romanized as "Big Mam Pirates" despite the sails reading "Big Mom;" the romanization was corrected in the volume release.
