Yet before Joker could enter Pangea Castle, three faintly emerging figures blocked his path.
"Shishishi hahaha, the Five Elders? How rare. You actually came out of Pangea Castle."
"Clown Buggy, disturbing the gods' slumber comes at a price!" said the sword-wielding Five Elder coldly.
"Don't look so serious. Smile, smile—that would be much better." Joker grinned as if joking.
"Oh, right. Come to think of it, I still don't know how strong you people are!"
"There are all kinds of speculations about you Five Elders on the seas. Some think you might be even stronger than Navy Fleet Admirals and Navy Admirals. Others think you're just a bunch of useless trash. This time, I can finally see for myself."
"Then you'll see it!" The blond Five Elder snorted, drew back his elbow, raised his hand, and clenched his fist! Then he threw a punch.
The terrifying fist blasted out a dreadful wave of air! The power of that punch was shocking!
Judging by the force of his fist alone, this guy had definitely reached the level of the sea's top fighters!
The only strange thing was that he seemed to possess no Haki whatsoever—not Conqueror's Haki, Armament Haki, or Observation Haki!
With a splat, Joker's entire chest was smashed into a bloody pulp on the spot! Wearing an eerie smile and spraying blood wildly, Joker fell to the ground and gradually went still.
"A fake?!" the blond Five Elder cried in shock and fury.
The Five Elders had some understanding of Buggy's strength. No matter how many setbacks the World Government suffered, a starving camel was still bigger than a horse. Pirates stronger than Navy Vice Admirals all had dedicated intelligence files.
Joker had never made much effort to conceal his combat power, so the Five Elders knew very well.
