Saint Garling also possessed advanced Observation Haki, having directly reached the Fourth Level and gained the ability to foresee the future. Of course, he knew what Julian intended to do. He raised his Western sword to resist again, but Julian saw that Saint Garling was still trying to put up a last-ditch struggle. Julian immediately unleashed the Conqueror's Haki within his body. Countless red shockwaves, mixed with red lightning, slammed directly into Saint Garling's face. The red lightning shockwaves split apart the clouds above the Holy Land.
Those close to Pangea Castle collapsed in large swathes. Saint Garling's Observation Haki was blown away by that overwhelming Conqueror's Haki, and cold sweat covered his forehead. He froze in place for an instant. Julian then delivered a Tyrant Fist: Divine Dragon Impact, striking Saint Garling's face at extreme speed. With a thunderous BOOM, Saint Garling's face was distorted by the blow, and the immense force sent him flying backward.
The CP0 Chief Officer and the commander of the Holy Knights beside them were both numbed by the red Conqueror's Haki shockwaves and red lightning. Cold sweat covered their faces, and their bodies could not react at all.
Julian looked at Saint Garling. His face had been deformed by Julian's punch, and he lay in a crack in the ground, having lost all ability to respond. Julian then used Divine Speed again, landing beside Saint Garling. He grabbed him in one hand and tossed him to Herbert. "Catch this bastard. Make those Gorosei scum trade Devil Fruits for him, or I'll have him executed." Herbert nodded and caught the heavily injured, unconscious Saint Garling.
Julian had held back just now. Saint Garling was a fragile little thing after all. An Advanced Emperor Level expert was now someone Julian could kill whenever he wanted.
