Originally, only Whitebeard stood on the bow of the Moby Dick.
After Bob arrived, both Shiki and Kaido also took their places on the deck.
Thus, the four great pirates of the Rocks Pirates were now gathered together.
The revenge of the old era began from this mont.
"Bob, Whitebeard, Shiki, Kaido!" Sengoku gritted his teeth, his face heavy with tension.
He knew that another fierce battle was imminent.
Moreover, with Bob's appearance, the Marines chances of victory would be greatly diminished and there was even a high possibility they gonna repeat the tragedy of God Valley.
Thinking of this, Sengoku gaze shifted slightly toward the Five Elders behind the execution platform, his expression uncertain.
"Kong-san?" Sengoku withdrew his gaze and looked toward Kong who stood nearby.
Hearing this, Kong glanced at Sengoku.
He understood what Sengoku ant—whether to fight or not.
"Let's see what the Five Elders do first" Kong sighed helplessly.
He knew that against Kaido, Whitebeard and Shiki, they might still have a fighting chance.
But against Bob, they didn't even have the qualifications to make him go all out.
Even if they fought together, it was likely they would end up like in the God Valley battle—defeated with a single punch.
It would be better to wait for the Five Elders to engage Bob in battle and during that ti, eliminate the other pirates.
Kong words weren't just for Sengoku.
Garp, the three Admirals and other top Marine fighters all understood the implication.

On the City Walls
The Seven Warlords of the Sea had varied expressions.
Doflamingo and Kuma were inwardly excited, but their faces showed no emotion, as if they didn't even know who Bob was.
anwhile, Boa Hancock stared at Bob with fiery eyes, her cheeks flushing red.
She wanted to rush to her leader side imdiately, but she still had a mission to complete and it wasn't the ti to reveal her identity.
"Zehahahaha!"
"So this is the legendary Bob? He doesn't seem all that impressive!" Teach laughed loudly, looking at Bob as if he were already his prey.
'After the plan is complete, I must recruit Bob under my command and rise to the top of the world! If Rocks could subdue Bob, why can't I?'
Thinking this, Blackbeard eyes grew even more fervent and his palms turned a deep black.
"With just his presence alone, he's intimidated all the top fighters of the Marine Headquarters!"
"Bob... just how strong are you? I really want to face you just once!" Mihawk sharp eyes beca even more intense.
Previously, he had felt so regret at not being able to face a powerhouse like Bob.
Now, seeing Bob alive, Mihawk felt a sense of joy.
Mihawk always held a deep respect for the strong.

"Bob, I never expected that after all these years, you haven't changed at all!" Sengoku looked at Bob and snorted coldly.
As the Fleet Admiral of the Marine, he had to do everything he could to buy ti for the Five Elders, in case Bob decided to attack the Marine directly.
That terrifying scene was sothing he never wanted to experience again, as it would bring irreparable losses to the Marine.
"Sengoku, aren't you the sa?"
"Still as rigid as ever!" Bob knew Sengoku intentions, but he didn't care in the slightest.
"What do you know?"
"This is justice! Upholding the Marine's justice is the Marine's foremost principle!" Sengoku didn't believe he was being old-fashioned at all.
While he agreed with the first half of Bob's statent, he didn't agree with the latter part in the slightest.
From forty years ago until now, Sengoku had always believed in the justice he carried.
As long as it was a command from the World Governnt, it had to be executed.
This was also why he could hold the position of Fleet Admiral.
"Oh~"
"Does that include deceiving the people who trust the Marine?" Bob sneered at Sengoku's words, speaking indifferently.
As soon as he finished speaking, the entire square fell into silence.
Everyone's eyes were fixed on the two n engaged in the conversation, their pupils trembling violently.
One was the current representative of the Marine, the highest authority and the other was a prodigy from the Rocks era, the strongest among the pirates.
At this mont, no one would dare to do anything else.
All attention was fully focused on the two of them.
They knew that every word of this conversation would spread across the world and be recorded in history.
And from Bob's words, they understood that the real battle was about to begin!
"Kaido! Tell Sengoku about what really happen in the God Valley!"
"He's old now, so he might have forgotten many details!" Bob's lips curved slightly as he spoke.
Hearing this, Kaido nodded, cleared his throat and prepared to speak.
"Jiehahahaha!"
"Let handle this matter!" Shiki laughed loudly, not willing to miss such a opportunity to make him the center of attention.
Without waiting for Kaido to speak, Shiki used his Devil Fruit ability to float into the air.
Looking down at the crowd below, his expression was arrogant, exuding the deanor of a king.
Under the grim expressions of Sengoku, Kong and other high-ranking Marine officials, Shiki's expression gradually turned serious.
At the sa ti, Shiki's steady and powerful voice slowly rang out.
He was not only going to reveal the truth about the God Valley Battle but also intended to recount the entire God Valley incident in its entirety.
As Shiki's words were spoken one by one, the expressions of the Marine, the pirates and the audience watching the screen began to change subtly.
However, the reactions on both sides were vastly different.
Following the tiline of the God Valley incident, the first thing Shiki revealed and what the world would co to know, was that the Celestial Dragons had perford a live sacrifice of a young girl in front of these Marine officers, burning her alive as an offering to their so-called "Creator."
At this point, Shiki's cigar had just finished burning and he paused.
Whoosh!
As Shiki's words fell, the crowd was silent.
After a brief mont of silence, an uproar erupted.
"Burning a young girl alive as a sacrifice—this must be true!"
"Given the cruelty of the Celestial Dragons, the scene back then must have been even more horrifying!"
"To do sothing so inhumane right in front of the Marine, and the Marine did nothing?"
"It's true, the Marine is nothing but the Celestial Dragons' lapdogs. There's no mistake about it!"
"Is this what you call justice?"
