Initially, the Gorosei believed that after Saturn took action, Eiji's defeat was beyond question.
In Pangaea Castle, they watched as Saturn easily pressed Eiji to the ground, rendering him unable to stand.
However, an unexpected situation occurred. A black barrier suddenly emerged with Eiji at its center, trapping Saturn and Kong. Even their advanced Kenbunshoku Haki failed to see inside the barrier.
Not wanting anything bad to happen to Saturn, the four Gorosei rushed to the battlefield in their awakened Mythical Zoan Devil Fruit forms and attacked the barrier together.
"You seem panicked because one of your comrades is in trouble." Eiji mocked as he observed the Gorosei's appearance.
Saint Warcury had the form of the Houki monster, also known as Fengxi. This monster resembled a giant wild boar typical in Chinese mythology. Given its terrifying appearance, the giant wild boar monster seemed very formidable.
In the air was Saint Mars. His monster form was Itsumade, a Japanese yokai that looked like a gigantic, terrifying bird. It was a creature with a dragon-like body, bird wings, and a face said to be a fusion of human and bird.
Saint Ju Peter's monster form was a giant sandworm.
Saint Nusjuro's monster form was Bakotsu, a yokai said to come from a burnt dead horse.
And lastly, there was Saint Saturn. His monster form was Gyuki or Ushi-oni, a type of Japanese yokai that is a cross between an ox and a spider.
Facing five powerhouses whose strength was equal to or greater than that of a Yonko, Eiji felt his chances of winning were very slim.
It wasn't about underestimating himself, but rather acknowledging that the upper limit of strength in the One Piece World was higher than in the Jujutsu Kaisen World.
By his estimation, his true strength was comparable to that of a Yonko.
Relying solely on the [Limitless Technique], it would be difficult for Eiji to kill the Gorosei.
"Kamiki Eiji, you should be proud to force us to fight you. Not many people in this world require us to take direct action." Saint Warcury sneered.
"Saturn, do you feel there's something wrong with you?" Saint Mars asked with concern.
"What is going on? Why are the five of us surrounding this white-haired young man? Who is he exactly?" Saint Saturn, who had lost recent memories, was filled with confusion.
"It seems Saturn has amnesia. It looks like the previous black barrier stole the target's memories, causing them to forget everything." Saint Nusjuro speculated after seeing Kong's condition.
None of the Gorosei were fools; they roughly understood the black barrier's effect after assessing Kong's condition.
"Before Kamiki Eiji uses that technique again, let's kill him quickly!" Said Saint Ju Peter impatiently.
'Let's escape. My goal of collecting Devil Fruits has been achieved; there's no benefit in fighting the Gorosei to the death. Even if I defeat them, the price I would have to pay wouldn't be small,' Eiji thought, having decided to retreat.
Because his face was expressionless, the Gorosei couldn't guess his thoughts through changes in his expression.
Then, Eiji raised his right hand, crossing his index and middle fingers.
"Domain Expansion—"
"Get away!" Shouted Saint Ju Peter, and the giant worm dug into the ground.
The other Gorosei didn't dare to be hit by an attack that could steal memories. From their previous observations, the black barrier only covered a 200-meter radius. With their speed, it was easy to move beyond that distance in mere seconds.
'I see... Advanced Kenbunshoku Haki isn't as omnipotent as I thought.'
Seeing the Gorosei frantically distancing themselves from him, Eiji was pleased to verify his assumption.
Advanced Kenbunshoku Haki allows the user to glimpse the future.
The future is not static and can change even due to the smallest factors.
If the Gorosei insisted on attacking him, Eiji would choose to use Null Void once again. Unlike other Jujutsu Sorcerers who could only use Domain Expansion once a day due to the enormous consumption of Cursed Energy, Eiji who possessed Six Eyes, could use Domain Expansion multiple times in one day.
Now that the Gorosei kept their distance from the Null Void's coverage, Eiji abandoned his intention to use Domain Expansion. Thus, the future that the Gorosei saw through Kenbunshoku Haki did not come to pass.
"Goodbye."
"Not good, he's trying to escape! Don't let him succeed!"
Saint Nusjuro was the fastest among the Gorosei, his figure already appearing in front of Eiji. The large horse hoof rose and stomped down, intending to crush the enemy into minced meat.
*BOOM*
Mary Geoise experienced an earthquake from the impact of Saint Nusjuro's foot.
"He escaped." Said Saint Warcury grimly.
The other Gorosei's expressions turned ugly.
Before the horse's hoof hit Eiji, their Kenbunshoku Haki sensed the other party suddenly disappear into thin air.
Even after Kenbunshoku Haki expanded and enveloped every inch of Mary Geoise, they couldn't find him.
❀❀❀
Two hours after the chaos in Mary Geoise.
In the sky, an airship flew above the clouds.
"Big news! For the first time in history, someone has made a mess of Mary Geoise. Not only that, Kamiki Eiji dared to kill Tenryuubito, not just one, but six Tenryuubito!"
"In an effort to stop Kamiki Eiji, former Fleet Admiral Kong was killed! The most shocking fact is that the Gorosei are Mythical Zoan Devil Fruit users!"
"Ha ha ha! Amazing! Once this news is released, the world will be in an unpredictable storm!"
In a messy office, an albatross hybrid wearing a light blue buttoned shirt with a yellow tie at the top, checkered pants, and a tall blue hat, stared at the photos of the previous events in Mary Geoise, his excitement evident on his face.
In the eyes of a journalist, obtaining interesting news is a joy.
This bird-man was none other than Morgans. He is the president of the World Economy News Paper and one of the emperors of the Underworld.
It should be noted that the World Economy News Paper is the main source of information with global reach, present in all Blue Seas, most of the Grand Line, and even the underwater kingdom of Fish-Man Island.
The newspaper is considered highly influential, a fact acknowledged by the World Government.
"Quick, print it! The world must know this! Except for the monster forms of the Gorosei, include the news in the paper." Morgans ordered his subordinates.
Although his relationship with the World Government was beyond repair, he didn't want to become their complete enemy. He still knew the World Government's bottom line and wouldn't spread news that crossed it.
"Yes, president!"
The subordinate immediately left the office.
"Kamiki Eiji... Your achievements are terrifying. He is bolder than the Yonko."
Morgans stared at the figure of Eiji standing in the air in the photo.
This photo was sent by his subordinate placed in Mary Geoise as a mole. Honestly, he didn't expect much. After all, Mary Geoise was very secure and hardly ever experienced major events.
"Now besides the Yonko, the world must consider the existence of Kamiki Eiji." Morgans said with a wide grin.
He couldn't wait to see what changes this news would bring to the world once it spread.
