It could be that the taunting was deployed to fool her Homies. Given that Big Mom made them practically for her with the forms they have, Nitro and Rabian aren't smart enough to get Pudding's true plans, and if they did and found out it would get in their creator's way, than they would be telling Linlin. At least that's my hypothesis.
