"!!!"
Holy Land, Mary Geoise,
The true pinnacle of power in the entire world, the Room of Flowers.
At that moment, on the Den Den Mushi, they saw an old man with two tufts of huge nose hair, a head full of white hair, and a wide grin displaying his big white teeth.
Even the Five Elders, who had always presented themselves with dignity and composure, could not help but have their pupils constrict as beads of cold sweat rolled down their faces.
How could this be...

Was actually still alive???
"Impossible!!! More than twenty years ago, the Marines had already confirmed Roger's terminal illness. Even the executioners were personally dispatched by the World Government..."
"How could someone who had been dead for over twenty years have survived in obscurity until now?!!!"
"How could something so absurd happen?!!!"
The Five Elders' brows trembled as they cried out in disbelief.
Their voices instantly drew Imu's attention.
His merciless, indifferent gaze fell upon them, plunging the Five Elders into an icy abyss. They hurriedly lowered their heads and knelt properly once more.
