Chapter 5

Gao Wen remained silent for a long time, and Ganggu Steel was silent for a moment before finally nodding heavily.

"I understand!"

He said, then waved his hand.

"Have you heard the orders from the Noble of the Celestial Dragons...

Clean up the area, and properly take care of all the people who have fainted here!

Do not kill any slaves; Gao Wen the Holy still needs those people to spread the news of his great feat of stunning another Celestial Dragon, ha!"

After giving the disdainful orders, Ganggu Steel turned around, leaving only the back view of his mohawk with its spiky top.

After Ganggu Steel left, the CP0 agents gathered around Gao Wen.

The leader of the CP0 squad bent down near Gao Wen and asked in a very respectful whisper.

"Saint Gao Wen, the Five Elders are still waiting for you. What do you think...?"

"Hmm!"

Gao Wen flicked the ash from his cigarette and nodded.

Seeing Gao Wen agree, the CP0 agents gathered together and gently lifted the sofa Gao Wen was sitting on.

Then, they used the slowest Moon Walk of their lives, trying to make Gao Wen as comfortable as possible, and headed toward the Five Elders' pavilion on the back side of Shabondy Castle.

Before long, Gao Wen's line of sight passed over Shabondy Castle, where the World Nobles' meetings, the reception of the three admirals, and the gathering of the Seven Warlords took place, and arrived at the area where the Five Elders resided.

The CP0 agents did not stop at the door of the Five Elders, as they had orders to enter directly, pass through the corridor, and place Gao Wen on the spotless floor.

After landing, the leader of the CP0 stood beside Gao Wen and extended his hand.

Gao Wen was slightly stunned. Was this... to take his cigarette?

So Gao Wen shook his head.

Seeing this, the CP0 agent felt a bit awkward and pondered what to do.

Should he leave, or let this Celestial Dragon, who was unfamiliar and had no impression but had an overwhelming presence and an unparalleled Conqueror's Haki, break the rules?

Fortunately, a voice from the side relieved the CP0 agent of the pressure to decide.

"Good boy, hahaha, let me see which junior has burst with a Conqueror's Haki that even we old ghosts can't imagine!"

Gao Wen looked in the direction of the voice and saw an old man with a narrow sword, wearing loose Japanese-style clothing, and an open chest, walking toward him from a distance.

As he walked, he waved his hand at the CP0 agents.

"Leave!"

"Yes, sir!"

The CP0 agents immediately bowed and backed out of the room.

After the CP0 agents left, the other four members of the Five Elders also came out.

Three of them looked at Gao Wen with bright eyes, just like the first one.

As for the last old man with white shoulder-length hair, he was holding a Den Den Mushi and giving instructions.

Gao Wen could hear his voice; the Five Elders at least seemed completely open and honest in their conversation.

The old man with the shoulder-length hair was saying to the Den Den Mushi in his hand.

"No need, no one dares to attack Mariejoa recklessly. The Mariejoa attack incident eight years ago, caused by the fishman Tager, will not happen again!

However, although we don't need your support, you should urgently dispatch the Warlord Bartholomew Kuma to Mariejoa!"

After speaking, the old man with the shoulder-length hair put down the Den Den Mushi and turned to look at Gao Wen.

"I wondered who could burst with such unimaginable Conqueror's Haki, it turns out to be you, little Gao Wen!"

As he spoke, the old man with the shoulder-length hair, along with the other four, stood in front of Gao Wen's sofa.

The old man with the sword was especially enthusiastic, even leaning close to Gao Wen and lightly patting his shoulder.

"Unlike him, I thought it would be you from the start, kid.

After all, there's no other Celestial Dragon junior in all of Mariejoa with such an extraordinary appearance and aura as you!

Come, take a look at this sword. If you like it, it will be yours after I die!

What do you think...?"

"Cough, cough!"

Before the old man with the sword could finish speaking, an old man with a round head, no hair, and two horizontal mustaches on his upper lip interrupted.

"Little Gao Wen awakened the top-tier Conqueror's Haki, not the top-tier Armament Haki!

Conqueror's Haki comes from charisma and determination, which is not a necessary quality for the head of the combat department!

On the contrary, Gao Wen is very suitable to take over from me.

There's no better job than diplomacy for a man with such strong charisma!"

After speaking, the old man with the two mustaches came to Gao Wen and asked with a smile.

"Do you like dealing with the so-called kings of the lower races? If not, I hope you will learn to love this job, you can start with me...!"

"Cough, cough!"

As expected, the old man with the two mustaches was interrupted by another cough.

Beside him, an old man with short yellow hair and a neat yellow mustache stepped forward.

"Narrow-minded thinking, a person with such determination can undoubtedly reach the highest level in any direction they choose!

Little Gao Wen, you have already shown us your excellence through your Conqueror's Haki, and we guarantee that we will not, and do not allow, such an excellent junior to be buried.

The five of us here are the highest-ranking Celestial Dragons.

We know that you, who can burst with unprecedented Conqueror's Haki, must have a broad heart eager to achieve great deeds.

Look at the five of us, I am in charge of all economic affairs!"

"And I am in charge of all cultural and educational affairs!" the old man with the shoulder-length hair smiled and nodded.

"Don't look at them vying to introduce themselves; dealing with money or ancient texts can't compare to the霸气 of issuing orders to the kings of the allied countries and having power over the seas!

Consider my direction, I am in charge of all diplomatic affairs!" the old man with the two mustaches said.

After the three of them, an old man wearing a black cloth cap, with a European classical judge's hairstyle, and a messy beard, followed.

"Those in diplomacy talk too much. What I am in charge of doesn't need so much pretense!

Gao Wen, I am in charge of all legal affairs. If your awakening is related to the crimes and punishments of the sea, and if you like to hear the cries and screams of criminals,

Then, consider my direction!"

After speaking, four of the Five Elders had introduced themselves.

As for the last one,

It was the old man with the sword, who was closest to Gao Wen and appeared first!

The old man with the sword smiled, took two steps back, and gently leaned the sheath of his long sword on the ground.

"Economy, culture, diplomacy, and law, how can they compare to commanding the land, sea, and air forces, overseeing the CP Ten, launching attacks on pirate nests, and waging war across the seas!"

As he spoke, the old man's smile deepened.

Invisibly, the aura burst from the five old men in front of Gao Wen!

Gao Wen felt immense pressure. If not for his previous experience, he would have fainted or at least been pressed to the ground by the pressure.

But now, facing the terrifying pressure, Gao Wen simply flicked the ash from his cigarette.

"Are you all teasing me, tempting me, or testing me?

Otherwise, why would you use Conqueror's Haki to suppress me?

Is this your way of showing respect before force?

Seniors!"

As the ash fell, Gao Wen's Conqueror's Haki burst again, the intense aura making his and the five old men's clothes flutter!

But this was just the beginning.

Don't forget, Gao Wen's Conqueror's Haki strength had already exceeded the standard!

Even Red-Haired, the monster now ranked among the Four Emperors,

Even at his peak, his Conqueror's Haki could barely crack the hull of the Adam Tree ship!

But Gao Wen,

His Conqueror's Haki, upon awakening, destroyed every building within a radius of several hundred meters!
