At this moment, Jaygarcia Saturn completely ignored his injuries, showing no trace of pain on his face.
Instead, he was utterly shocked by the power Bob had displayed.
As a user of the Mythical Zoan, Model: Gyuki (Ushi-Oni), no one understood the extent of his own monstrous strength and resilience better than him.
Over the past eight hundred years, countless strong enemies had emerged, yet not a single one could stand against him in a direct confrontation.
None could gain the upper hand after he activated his power, let alone do so effortlessly, with such a casual move no less.
"Huff—" Jaygarcia Saturn took a deep breath, his eyes fixed intently on Bob.
The next moment, his arm suddenly began to squirm, as though something was filling his flesh and blood.
In no time, the arm Bob had broken earlier returned to its original state.
Brimming with explosive power, all traces of its previous weakness vanished.
"Regeneration huh..." Bob raised an eyebrow slightly as he watched Jaygarcia Saturn's arm fully recover in just a few seconds.
He was also somewhat surprised by the old man's strength.
Compared to the so-called powerhouses of this world, this level of strength was simply in a different league.
Had any of the Yonko faced that attack instead of him, they would have undoubtedly been injured.
"But... it's still far from enough!!"
Hearing this, a sharp glint flashed in Jaygarcia Saturn's eyes, though he remained silent.
During their earlier exchange, Bob had thoroughly demonstrated his overwhelming power.
There was no room for him to argue.
"Hmph!"
"If one person isn't enough—what about five?" Ethanbaron V Nusjuro knew a single individual couldn't defeat Bob, but seeing the Warrior God of Science and Defense being so easily overpowered still left him deeply shaken.
His hand rested firmly on the hilt of his Shodai Kitetsu.
The moment he finished speaking, the other four figures moved.
WHOOSH!
A deafening sound of displaced air erupted as the ground beneath them heaved.
Topman Warcury, now in his colossal boar form (Mythical Zoan, Model: Fengxi/Hoki), charged forward with unbelievable force, tearing a massive chunk of earth!
With a guttural roar, he tossed the earth into the sky before Bob, accompanied by a series of explosive booms.
"Flipping the table? Isn't that my move?" Bob muttered, eyeing the earth blotting out the sky.
As soon as the words left his mouth, Bob prepared to move, but at that very moment, a strange pressure descended upon him.
His movements suddenly slowed down, almost as if he were suspended, his muscles straining against an unseen force.
An eerie, almost telepathic presence seemed to flood his mind, attempting to overwhelm his will.
"Hmm?"
Caught off guard by the restraint, Bob paused—the unseen force had momentarily severed his next action.
This was unlike anything he had encountered before.
By the time he registered this, the colossal mass of earth was already upon him.
Less than ten meters away.
"Crack—"
Yet, the sound of shattering glass abruptly rang out.
A fist-shaped imprint appeared in the space before Bob, its fissures spreading rapidly outward like a spiderweb.
This was not a physical barrier, but the very fabric of the strange pressure he was under, being shattered by his immense will and raw power.
In the blink of an eye, cracks covered Bob's surroundings, forming a perfect cylindrical shape.
"BOOM!"
The moment the strange pressure around Bob shattered, an overwhelming force surged from his fist like a compressed air cannon, blasting forward at incredible speed.
It struck the massive earthen mass, triggering a deafening explosion.
Instantly, the thousand-meter-tall block of earth disintegrated into dust, the sheer force pulverizing it completely.
The entire area was blanketed in debris, the air thick with the heavy scent of soil.
Visibility plummeted to near zero.
But it wasn't over yet.
Bob's gaze sharpened as he stared into the swirling dust before him, sensing a trace of danger emanating from within.
The next moment— A massive black sword aura, crackling with an unnatural cold and destructive energy, shot out from the dust at blinding speed.
The moment it emerged, it was already upon Bob.
"A technique of the Shodai Kitetsu, huh?" Bob murmured indifferently.
In the next moment, his fingers twitched slightly.
His arm, previously resting at his side, suddenly appeared mid-air with impossible swiftness.
His palm curled slightly as he reached out to seize the oncoming sword aura.
The black slash, which had seemed capable of annihilating everything, now appeared powerless— Trapped in Bob's grip, unable to advance even an inch.
Then— Bob's fingers clenched abruptly, an unstoppable force radiating from his knuckles as his grip tightened.
The colossal black sword aura trembled violently under his grasp, as if whimpering.
BOOM!!
A deafening explosion erupted as a dark sphere of energy detonated in Bob's palm, shaking everything around him.
Destructive energy surged outward, sweeping across the battlefield.
The dust-choked air was instantly cleared by the violent shockwaves, leaving only clarity in its wake.
"Five o'clock, left." Bob tilted his head slightly, muttering under his breath.
In an instant— His figure blurred as he vanished from his original position, moving at an extreme speed.
Fist clenched, he shot towards his target.
"Damn it!" Ethanbaron V Nusjuro, now in his skeletal horse hybrid form (Mythical Zoan, Model: Bakotsu), felt his pupils constrict.
At this moment, it was as if he had been marked by a primordial beast.
A chill shot up from his feet, piercing straight through his spine.
But he knew it was already too late—his opponent's speed was beyond comprehension.
There was no dodging this.
Even if he tried, once locked onto by Bob's presence, escape was impossible.
Yet, at that very moment— Ju Peter, from his position several hundred meters away, narrowed his eyes.
A chilling, unseen force pulsed from his form.
Ethanbaron V Nusjuro, who should have been struck head-on by Bob, suddenly vanished without a trace—not just from his position, but from the entire space itself.
As if ripped from existence, leaving no mark behind.
"A collective power... or one I haven't seen before?" Bob said.
Disappearing so abruptly without leaving any trace in the surroundings couldn't possibly be due to sheer speed.
After all, when it came to speed, no one in this world could surpass Bob—let alone evade his sight.
Coupled with the strange pressure that had previously trapped him, there was no doubt—the Five Elders possessed a bunch of strange and mysterious power.
