But the opponent standing before them was Gojo Satoru, the man who injured Marine Admirals during the Summit War!
Marine Admirals are the strongest combat force the Marines have, yet Gojo Satoru was able to injure one of them—this alone shows just how terrifyingly powerful he is!
And right now, Gojo Satoru wasn't even doing anything.
His hands were casually stuffed into his pockets.
There wasn't any overwhelming aura coming off his body.
But!
For some reason, when everyone looked at this man, they were inexplicably terrified!
Their bodies began to tremble...
Even their souls quivered!
It was as if their instincts—both physical and spiritual—were warning them that this man was not someone they should ever dare to provoke.
"Why is this guy standing in front of us?!"
"When did he even appear?!"
"He's strong… insanely strong!"
Panic spread like wildfire among the surrounding pirates.
Even the two veteran Big Mom Pirates' officers—Charlotte Oven and Charlotte Daifuku—were visibly shaken at first.
But soon…
They composed themselves!
"You dare to show up here alone?"
"How arrogant!"
Oven's entire body began radiating intense heat.
His aura surged.
Anyone familiar with Oven would know:
He's furious!
He's about to attack Gojo Satoru!
Daifuku, who shares a similar temper with his brother, also flew into a rage. Without hesitation, he summoned his Djinn and prepared for battle!
These two were top-tier powerhouses in the Charlotte Family. Over the years, they had eliminated countless strong enemies in the name of the family.
Usually, their achievements made Charlotte Linlin (Big Mom) quite pleased. She often said that these two would become the twin blades supporting Katakuri in the future!
For a Four Emperor to speak so highly of them shows just how powerful Oven and Daifuku truly are.
If they were just some nobodies, they would've been discarded by someone as brutal as Charlotte Linlin long ago.
But!
At that moment, Katakuri's expression changed drastically. He immediately stopped them from taking action.
"You two, get everyone out of here—now!"
"This guy… you two can't stop him!"
In truth, there was something Katakuri didn't say out loud.
Forget about Oven and Daifuku—even he himself wasn't sure he could hold his own against this man!
Others may not be able to sense it, but Katakuri's Observation Haki was top-class. He could clearly feel the immense, deeply restrained power lying dormant within Gojo Satoru.
In other words… if Gojo truly wanted to kill them, it would be effortless.
Let alone the others—even Katakuri wouldn't last long in a real fight.
He was certain that, if a battle broke out, he'd be defeated in less than ten moves.
If his guess was right, then this man's strength was easily at the level of a Marine Admiral—or even a Four Emperor.
And Katakuri had never doubted his own judgment.
But perhaps... Katakuri was still underestimating him.
Did he really think of something that Gojo Satoru hadn't already anticipated?
"My captain already told me,"
Gojo said, slowly pulling his hands out of his pockets.
"None of you are leaving here today."
As soon as the white-haired man uttered those words, his previously lazy expression disappeared.
It was instantly replaced by an icy cold glare.
