Gojo immediately left Rocketman, flying away from the train and heading straight toward the front gate where those two giants were—the same giants he had just promised the Straw Hats he would deal with.
He flew toward the front gate of Enies Lobby at a very low altitude, barely twenty to thirty feet above the ground. The wind whipped past him as his coat fluttered behind his back.
As soon as he came into view, many Marines stationed on the watchtower-like structures immediately spotted him. Shouts rang out from above as they pointed toward the sky.
"Someone is flying!"
"Above us!"
"He's heading toward the front gate!"
The warning spread quickly, and the Marines on the ground reacted almost instantly. Rifles were raised. Cannons were adjusted. Within seconds, a barrage of bullets came flying toward Gojo from multiple directions.
The sound of gunfire echoed through the area relentlessly.
But Gojo did not care.
His eyes calmly moved over the bullets rushing toward him. Not a single one of them carried Haki. Not even one.
Without Haki, these bullets were worthless in front of his Limitless.
The bullets came close to him—mere inches away from his body—but then they suddenly slowed, hanging in the air for the briefest moment before falling harmlessly to the ground below. Some clinked against the stone pathways, while others bounced off walls or rolled across the ground.
Gojo continued flying forward completely unhindered, as if the barrage did not even exist.
His target was clear.
The giants.
The two giants seated in front of the front gate also witnessed the commotion and saw Gojo flying directly toward them.
Being warriors themselves, they immediately understood that Gojo's target was not the Marines around them.
It was them.
Even though Gojo's eyes were hidden behind a blindfold, both giants could still feel it—that strange sensation that he was looking directly at them, as if his gaze was piercing through everything.
Gojo finally landed just a few meters away from both of the giants. The moment his feet touched the ground, dust lightly rose around him.
"Tsk."
He clicked his tongue, clearly annoyed by the Marines.
The bullets had never reached him, but the shouting certainly had.
"Who the hell are you, bastard?!"
"Where are you going?!"
"You are not allowed here!"
The constant yelling, cursing, and panicked screaming from the Marines had been reaching his ears the entire time, and it had become very irritating.
So, without hesitation, Gojo slowly raised his right hand and pointed his index and middle fingers upward.
A small blue sphere formed above his fingertips.
At first, it was tiny, barely the size of a marble, but it quickly started growing larger and larger. The air around it distorted violently. Dust, broken stone, and loose debris began trembling across the ground.
Then Gojo casually moved his fingers.
The blue sphere shot to the side.
Instantly, the ground was torn apart.
Huge chunks of stone ripped free from the earth and were sucked toward the Blue, revolving wildly around it. Cracks spread across the front gate area as the surface shattered apart.
The Marines standing nearby did not even have time to react.
They were pulled off their feet and dragged violently toward the Blue along with the debris. Their bodies spun around its outline, revolving endlessly alongside broken pieces of stone, shattered walls, twisted metal, and chunks of the ground itself.
Some of them screamed.
Some slammed directly into the flying debris.
Others crashed into one another before being thrown away like ragdolls and smashing into the ground hard enough to leave cracks beneath them.
The Blue continued moving around Gojo like a small destructive star orbiting him.
Everywhere it passed, the ground was destroyed.
Marines were lifted into the air, dragged around, slammed into debris, and then hurled away. The sound of stone breaking, metal bending, and men screaming echoed throughout the entire front gate area.
By the time the Blue finally stopped moving, almost half of the Marines stationed near the front gate had been completely destroyed—meaning they could no longer move at all.
A few might have even died.
Gojo did not care.
To him, these Marines were nothing more than annoying bugs buzzing around his ears.
Anyways, he was here to kill Spandam.
And anyone who stood in the way of his goal would suffer.
Either they would die, or they would be severely injured.
A cold wind passed through the ruined battlefield as dust drifted through the air.
Finally, Gojo looked toward the two giants and said,
"As you both might have already guessed, my goal is you both. That's why clearing this trash was necessary."
A faint smirk appeared on his face.
"Now it will be better for me and less annoying when I defeat you."
As soon as both the giants, Oimo and Kashii, heard Gojo's words, they looked down at him.
Compared to them, Gojo looked tiny.
The difference in size was absurd. Their bodies towered above him like massive walls, their shadows covering the broken ground around him.
And then both giants immediately burst out laughing.
"Hahahahaha!"
"Gubabababa!"
"You, a small creature, won't even be able to put a dent on us!"
"But we do appreciate your bravery for fighting us!"
"We will give you a chance!"
Their loud voices shook the air around the front gate. Even some of the injured Marines lying nearby looked up nervously after hearing the giants laugh so confidently.
Gojo simply stood there with one hand inside his pocket.
A small sigh escaped from his mouth.
As soon as he heard them, he said,
"I'm very disappointed after hearing this from the mouth of giants—especially from warriors."
The smile on his face slowly faded.
"You both must already know by now, through your fair share of battles, that size in this world doesn't matter."
A cold wind passed through the destroyed battlefield as dust moved around their feet.
"Can you say the same thing if someone like the Pirate King or Marine Hero Garp was standing here in front of you?"
"If either of them were standing here, would you still laugh because of their size?"
Gojo slightly tilted his head.
"In this world, size doesn't matter. What matters is strength. And anyone can possess strength surpassing someone else irrespective of their size."
He then looked directly at both of them.
"As warriors, you both should definitely know this."
After saying that, Gojo slowly unsheathed his sword.
The dark black blade reflected no light at all. It almost looked like a piece of darkness given shape. As soon as it came out of its sheath, a faint metallic sound echoed through the front gate area.
Gojo held the sword casually in his right hand and looked at both Oimo and Kashii.
"How about this?" he said.
"I will give you an offer."
"You both are honorable warriors, right?"
The smile on his face returned.
"If I am able to injure you both within a minute of our battle, then not only will you let me pass from here, but also the few friends of mine who will be coming just a few minutes later."
He lightly pointed his sword toward the gate behind them.
"You will let them pass too."
Oimo and Kashii looked at each other for a moment.
Then both of them burst into loud laughter again, finding Gojo's words amusing.
"Hahahahaha!"
"Gubabababa!"
"As warriors, it was definitely shameful for us to judge you based on your size!"
"You are right!"
"Size does not matter!"
"The size of the fighters does not matter during battle!"
"Although we giants do have an inherent advantage against humans, that only matters for low-level warriors!"
"Not high-level warriors!"
Their massive voices echoed across the ruined front gate, carrying even through the dust and destruction left behind by Gojo's Blue.
Then both of them looked down at him seriously.
"And we accept your proposal."
"If you are able to injure us within one minute of battle, then we will not hinder you."
"Neither you nor your friends."
As soon as Gojo heard this, he gave a small nod.
"Be ready," he said calmly.
"Here I come."
Gojo had heard many things about the honor of giants and how deeply they respected the spirit of a warrior.
That was exactly why he made the offer.
He was confident enough in his own strength to defeat both Oimo and Kashii.
But that did not mean it would be easy.
And it definitely would not be instant.
If Gojo was not aiming to kill them, then defeating both of them would take time. Giants naturally possessed enormous durability, and both Oimo and Kashii were clearly experienced warriors on top of that.
Even normal humans in this world had absurdly resilient bodies.
So Gojo did not even need to imagine how durable giants would be.
Gojo took a deep breath while looking toward both giants.
Then he said,
"Before we begin fighting, I will introduce myself."
He rested the dark blade over his shoulder.
"I am Gojo Satoru."
Then he looked up at them.
"And what are your names?"
Both giants introduced themselves proudly.
First, Oimo spoke.
"I am Oimo, the brave warrior of the giants!"
Then Kashii spoke right after him.
"I am Kashii, the brave warrior of the giants!"
Both of them introduced themselves in exactly the same way.
Brave warriors of the giants.
