Yet even so, Jaygarcia Saturn's back was still a bloody mess.
Bob's casual punch had actually damages Saturn to the point he cant regenerates.
Jaygarcia Saturn fell from the water curtain onto the scorching rocks of the Red Line, his body sprawled across the ground.
The gaping wound on his body sent cold sweat pouring down his face.
His entire left arm had been shattered, but his strong physique kept him from passing out on the spot.
Gritting his teeth, Jaygarcia Saturn shakily rose to his feet.
Yet the next moment.
His body vanished from where he stood.
At the same time, behind Bob, Ethanbaron V Nusjuro moved.
The metal sword in his hand was tightly gripped.
With a hum, the blade instantly turned black and an overwhelming aura erupted from his body.
Ethanbaron V Nusjuro's eyes sharpened as power surged from his limbs into the sword.
Black waves of energy appeared on the darkened blade, rapidly expanding outward until they enveloped him completely within moments.
Then, his arm hidden within the black energy lifted and slashed forward with tremendous force.
In an instant.
A sword beam over a thousand meters long shot forth.
The black energy shrouding Ethanbaron V Nusjuro was instantly absorbed into the blade as the attack was unleashed.
A massive fissure tore open beneath him, as if intending to split the Red Line in half.
Fine cracks even appeared in the space sliced by the sword beam.
"What an overwhelming sword beam!"
Shiki couldn't help but exclaim as he watched the sky-obscuring black slash.
As a master swordsman himself, he knew he could never achieve such a feat.
In this world, no one but this elder could unleash such an attack, well maybe Mihawk could also do it.
Not just him—even the likes of Garp, Sengoku, Kong, Fujitora, and Ryokugyu from the World Government were visibly shaken.
The power of the Five Elders far exceeded their expectations.
The next moment.
That peerless sword beam arrived right before Bob.
Yet, faced with such a devastating attack, Bob's eyes showed not a flicker of emotion, as if this strike pose no threat to him at all.
Without hesitation, Bob raised his arm.
And threw a simple punch forward.
Instantly.
A deafening explosion erupted around Bob.
A violent surge of energy burst forth, forming a sphere of black energy that encased him.
The aura of destruction loomed over every soldier present.
"Bob must be dead, right?"
"That sword beam was monstrous—it blotted out the sky!"
"Bob took it head-on. He won't walk away unscathed from this one!"
"..."
World Government personnel muttered as they watched Bob being struck directly by the colossal sword beam.
Yet the next moment.
From within the churning black energy, a lean figure leaped out.
And dashed straight towards Ethanbaron V Nusjuro.
"Oh crap!" Ethanbaron V Nusjuro felt Bob charging towards him, his eyelids twitching violently.
Instantly, he transformed into his Bakotsu form and the sword in his hand disintegrated, transformed into a metal shield, blocking in front of him.
At the same time, his other hand clawed at the ground and red earth and stones took shape in the blink of an eye.
Several towering trees grew at a visible speed before him, twisting into braided forms.
But that wasn't enough.
A shimmering blue water curtain rose from the ground like a cascading waterfall and behind it, a massive boulder with a diameter of over a hundred meters appeared.
In an instant, four layers of barriers stood before Ethanbaron V Nusjuro, each with astonishing defensive power.
He knew all too well the destructive force of Bob's fists, so the moment Bob emerged from the black sword energy, he used his Devil Fruit abilities to erect formidable defenses.
Just then—
Bob's figure had already closed in.
Without hesitation, his gleaming bald head smashed forward like a battering ram.
The outermost blue water curtain was the first to fall.
Under Bob's impact, it exploded as if struck by a massive bomb, sending water splashing in all directions.
A gaping hole tore through the cascading flow.
Next was the enormous boulder, hundreds of meters in diameter.
Just like the water curtain, Bob tore through it effortlessly, his overwhelming force causing the rock to shatter instantly.
Without even a pause, he plowed through the colossal trees—each requiring over a dozen men to encircle—reducing them to splinters as if they were nothing more than brittle twigs.
"Clang!!"
Bob's bald head collided with the massive metal shield, sparks flying as it shattered like fragile paper.
Watching Bob break through all his defenses in an instant, Ethanbaron V Nusjuro's pupils dilated in horror at the sight of that blindingly shiny head.
The next moment—
A dull thud echoed as Ethanbaron V Nusjuro was struck head-on.
Instantly, everything below his chest turned into a bloody mist.
Bob's body, like a fired arrow, showed no signs of stopping as he continued hurtling forward.
"BOOM!!"
Another deafening explosion rang out as Bob crashed into a distant mountain, his momentum finally slowing.
"What kind of physical strength is this?!"
"For fuck sakes, that's inhuman!"
"No wonder he's bald—his head's harder than steel!"
"..."
Everyone stared in stunned silence at the terrifying scene that had just unfolded.
The World Government officials paled in shock.
"Now's the time!"
"Let's wipe out those pirates first!"
At that moment, Fujitora, the new Admiral who had remained inactive until now, suddenly shouted.
Gripping his cane sword, his closed eyes twitched slightly beneath two gruesome scars.
As an Admiral, even if he disliked some of the World Government and Marine's actions, this was no time for hesitation.
The next moment—A powerful aura erupted from Fujitora's body, with boundless waves of energy spreading outward from him.
"BOOM!"
Instantly, the ground beneath his feet seemed to collapse under immense pressure.
In the blink of an eye, dust billowed out, and Fujitora raised his cane sword, slashing fiercely towards the skies.
The overwhelming surge of energy shot straight into the skies.
