As Sanders approached the ship.
The bodyguards on the cruise ship didn't hesitate and immediately ordered to fire.
They didn't care who was on the boat.
Cannonballs exploded around Sanders' ship, creating splashes of water.
Sanders stood at the bow of the ship, arms crossed, unfazed by the barrage of cannon fire.
With a flash of electricity, several cannonballs detonated in the sky.
Sanders leaped onto the cruise ship.
The bodyguards on the deck turned pale, pointing their guns at Sanders.
"Who are you? How dare you board the ship of a Celestial Dragon? Do you have a death wish?!"
Without any change in his expression, Sanders didn't even glance at these people and instead turned to look at Charlos, who happened to be stepping onto the deck.
The iconic glass dome and the pig-like body made it clear that this was a Celestial Dragon.
"I don't know him, but I'll collect some interest first."
Sanders didn't recognize this particular Celestial Dragon.
But that didn't stop him from killing him.
"Who are you?"
Charlos was clearly displeased, staring at the stranger who had intruded on his territory.
The bodyguards in white suits behind him froze momentarily, then simultaneously shouted:
"Sanders?!"
They immediately moved in front of Charlos, assuming defensive stances, shielding him completely.
"Oh? So, you know me. CP0, I presume?"
Sanders eyed the white-suited, masked figures standing before him.
CP0, an organization directly under the command of the Celestial Dragons.
Known as "the strongest shield of the Celestial Dragons."
Also considered "the world's strongest intelligence agency."
Naturally, they were aware of Sanders' appearance.
"Who is Sanders?"
"Quick, capture this man for me! I'll make him my slave!"
Charlos ordered impatiently, his eyes wide with anger.
He wasn't swayed by the caution shown by CP0.
In his worldview, anyone who wasn't a Celestial Dragon was a lowly commoner, a mere mortal.
They were nothing more than ants for him to control, kill, and humiliate at will.
"Lord Charlos, please return to the cabin immediately. This man is extremely dangerous,"
One of the CP0 agents respectfully, almost humbly, pleaded.
Even though they were protecting him, they couldn't use any force against him.
Even if a Celestial Dragon ordered them to commit suicide, they would have to carry out the command without hesitation.
"Are you kidding me? No one dares to harm me."
"I don't care who Sanders is."
"If he's a commoner, he must obediently surrender."
"Hurry up and capture him, brand him, and I will torture him to my heart's content!"
Charlos pulled out a gun and pointed it at the CP0 agent who had spoken.
Sanders glanced at Charlos's slaves, then looked at Charlos again, and smiled.
His smile was filled with cruelty.
The CP0 agent's eyes were full of anxiety, but there was nothing he could do to stop the situation. All he could do was take out a Den Den Mushi to call for the assistance of a Marine Admiral.
Whenever a Celestial Dragon is offended, a Marine Admiral must be dispatched for their protection.
Sanders didn't stop him.
He also wanted to catch up with his former colleagues—he just wondered who would show up this time.
Before the CP0 agents could act on Charlos's command, the black-suited bodyguards on the deck opened fire first.
The bullets passed through Sanders' body without causing any harm.
"You're courting death!"
Sanders' eyes flashed with anger.
In an instant, his Conqueror's Haki burst forth.
The black-suited bodyguards on the deck collapsed instantly.
The few who barely managed to stay conscious were then struck by lightning bolts thrown casually by Sanders, reduced to charred remains.
"You damned wretch, how dare you kill my slaves!"
Charlos saw that his black-suited bodyguards had been completely wiped out, yet his face showed no fear.
Instead, he furiously fired his gun at Sanders.
Bang bang bang!
The bullets had no effect on Sanders' Logia-type abilities.
Seeing that the CP0 agents had finished their phone call, Sanders finally lost his patience and rushed toward them.
"Shigan!"
One of the CP0 agents immediately used one of the Six Powers, aiming a finger coated in Armament Haki at Sanders' chest.
Sanders grinned and extended his own finger.
"Shigan!"
He used the same technique.
The two fingers collided.
The CP0 agent's finger snapped instantly.
Sanders' Shigan overwhelmed his opponent, piercing straight through his entire arm, shattering it completely.
Even in Shigan, there was a vast difference in skill!
The gap between the two, whether in technique or Armament Haki, was like heaven and earth.
"Ah!"
The CP0 agent's scream had just started when Sanders' other finger jabbed into his throat.
A large hole appeared in his neck.
The scream was cut short, and the agent's body stiffened before falling heavily to the ground.
"Rankyaku!"
Ignoring the fallen corpse, Sanders kicked off the deck and charged toward another agent.
The agent's face changed dramatically; unable to dodge in time, he tensed his muscles.
"Tekkai Steel!"
He activated Tekkai, enhanced with Armament Haki.
"Shigan Gatling Gun!"
Sanders unleashed a barrage of Shigan strikes with all five fingers.
His fingers became a blur.
Like a Gatling gun, they pounded into the agent's chest.
This was a technique Sanders developed while experimenting with Shigan, designed to mimic rapid-fire gunshots.
Thud thud thud thud thud!
The CP0 agent's chest was riddled with holes.
The defense created by Tekkai combined with Armament Haki was as fragile as paper before Sanders' invincible Armament Haki.
Blood poured everywhere, and fragments of ribs and organs flew out.
In the blink of an eye, five CP0 agents were dead.
So far, Sanders hadn't even used his Rumble-Rumble Fruit powers.
He had relied solely on physical techniques and Haki.
In his eyes, these CP0 agents weren't worth using his other abilities.
The remaining three CP0 agents, their faces hidden behind masks, looked horrified.
One of them suddenly began to swell, his body quickly bursting out of his clothes.
In the next moment, he transformed into a massive black bull with horns on his head.
He had eaten the Zoan-type Bull-Bull Fruit, Model: Black Bull!
