Need less to say, the result is still the same even for Hajruddin. Magnus trashes him easily, he beats all of them without even using his devil fruit abilities or even haki. He only uses his basic power and skills to defeat these 10 young Giants.

"You guys are not bad, but you are overconfident although you lack the basics. Being warriors isn't just about being brave enough to challenge everything in your path. Be smart and humble but stay confident without overestimating yourselves. You're lucky that you fought me because you would suffer more if you fought those stronger than me here."

"Who are stronger than you here, big bro Magnus?"

"Hmm, power-wise, there are 4 people. Captain, Vice-Captain, Palu, and Enel. But in a fight, I might lose to 1 more person. Mantis has lower power than me, but her skills are very great. She could beat me even with a weaker body. That's why you need to know that power isn't everything in battles."

The young Giants are surprised that Magnus isn't even among the top 3 strongest here. They thought that at most he would be weaker than the Captain and Vice-Captain. But he is actually weaker than 4 people and someone weaker than him can defeat him in a battle.

"BIG BRO MAGNUS, WE WANT TO GET STRONGER, PLEASE TEACH US!"

Hajruddin suddenly shouts and bows to Magnus, followed by his members. Magnus looks at Buggy, unsure of what to do with these guys. He never thought they would ask for guidance right away. Buggy smiles and claps his hands once to get the Giants' attention.

"Do you really want to get stronger? You are serious, right?"

"YES!"

"Good, there's no point if you aren't serious. But there's really nothing we can teach you at this point. What you need now is experience, not training. Go explore the world and fight a lot of strong people. We were also fighting lots of life & death battles for years to reach this level."

"So we just need to keep fighting?"

"You need to train too, obviously. But hard battles help you grow faster, rather, they force you to grow. When you finally hit the wall and feel like you can't improve anymore, that's when you can ask for Magnus's help. But it's not the time yet now."

"What should we do now, Captain Buggy?"

Buggy almost chokes when he hears them calling him Captain Buggy. He hasn't heard that way of calling for years and it reminds him of how the Buggy in the series was called.

"Well, you are rookie pirates, so do what rookies do. Start from the beginning to gain more experience."

"So we need to go to Paradise?"

"Paradise is too weak if you want to get stronger. You can go there if you want to experience the world, but if your aim is power, then just stay in the New World. You can start from the 1st island and keep following the Log Pose or just go around New World to fight more people. But if you want a real challenge right away, then I have a place in mind."

The Giants look at each other and ask Buggy to tell them where they need to go. Buggy grins and tosses an Eternal Pose to them while Magnus is sighing. He doesn't know what his Captain is planning but he knows it will be tough for these young Giants.

"Go there and you'll see how vast the world truly is."

The New Giant Warrior Pirates finally leave after a while. They go to the location that Buggy told them which is none other than Punk Hazard. He wants to create a big show in New World using these rookies.

"Time to shake the World again."

It's not just the New Giant Warrior Pirates or Straw Hat-Heart Pirates alliance that goes to Punk Hazard. Many more people are coming there right now with different intentions, but they are mostly pirates. Their sudden movements alarmed the Marines that obviously make a move quickly.
