I am the Bandit King of the East Sea.

Sig's vigilance intensified.

The experts in the Navy and CP are not only proficient in the Six Powers, but also possess the skill of Life Return.

Returning to life means infusing one's consciousness into various parts of the body, thereby gaining control over the body, hair, internal organs, and so on.

For example, Rear Admiral Onigumo is not a Devil Fruit user, but he is proficient in Life Reversion, which allows him to wield six swords using his hair.

Stussy was clearly a master of Life Return. The white mask he wore back then was actually a tall figure over two meters tall, which was likely a disguise created by Stussy through Life Return.

And this shy look she's showing now is definitely a combination of acting skills and the ability to return to life!

Sig's heart couldn't help but beat a little faster.

While on the ship, he deliberately avoided being around Stusi, fearing that one day he would suddenly be exposed...

But at this special moment when they are about to enter the Grand Line, there are some things that Sig has no choice but to say.

Sieg suppressed his anxiety and said:

"I'll say it again, you are free."

"You stay in the East Blue, and we'll head to the Grand Line. Let's part ways here."

“The route to the Reverse Mountain is a one-way trip. As long as you stay in the East China Sea, there is no way I can stop you.”

Sieg said solemnly.

For a fleeting moment, Stussy wavered.

The Grand Line is basically a one-way trip. To return to the East Blue, one must either sail around the Grand Line or take a legal trade route through the Red Line to return to the East Blue.

Both of these methods are very time-consuming.

Even if Sig wanted to use the same trick on him as last time, he wouldn't be able to reverse back to the East China Sea in a short period of time.

This is indeed a great opportunity to get rid of Sieg.

But Stussy suddenly recalled CP0's orders and the scene of Siegfried slaying the Sea King, and that's when it dawned on him.

Others can't go against the current back to the East China Sea, but Sig can walk through the Calm Belt!

"I almost fell for this man's tricks again..."

Stussy felt a chill run down his spine, yet he smiled at Sieg.

"Is Mr. Sig testing my resolve again? I have already decided to turn over a new leaf..."

Seeing this, Sieg could only sigh inwardly.

"Forget it, think it over carefully. There's no need to make a decision right now."

After saying that, Sieg felt a little depressed and walked forward.

Having a ticking time bomb like Stuart around all the time isn't a solution...

Lost in thought, Sieg didn't notice an old man with a cane walking towards him.

As they passed each other, the old man seemed to slip and fell to the ground.

"You bumped into me, I need the lady's help to stand up!"

"You bumped into me, I need the lady's help to stand up!"

The old man sat down on the ground, hugging his legs, and shouted at Sieg and Stusi.

Sig was stunned. He hadn't felt any physical contact with the old man.

"Hey, old man, what are you trying to do? Are you trying to scam our boss?"

"That's hilarious! You're not very good at this, are you? You didn't even touch the boss's shoulder."

Behind Sieg, several of his men immediately stepped forward and surrounded the old man who had fallen to the ground.

They were bandits, and their appearances were mostly fierce and menacing, which immediately frightened the old man.

"I...I'm not trying to extort money, so how can it be called a staged accident?"

The old man shrank his neck and argued.

To keep a low profile, Sieg didn't bring many men with him and told them not to get too close, so the old man didn't realize that Sieg was in cahoots with these people.

Just as the old man was beginning to regret his actions, Sieg pushed aside his men and stepped forward:

"Oops, I really did bump into you by accident."

"Sir, do you want her to help you?"

Sieg pointed to Stussy beside him, a smile on his face.

The old man glanced at Sig and the bandits beside him, hesitated for a moment, and then nodded.

"How can this be enough to express my apology?"

With a serious expression, Sieg pointed to Stussy and introduced him:

"This is our cleaning lady."

"To express your apology, why don't you let her come to your house and do housework for a month?"

Sieg casually made up an excuse to send Stusi away.

"The cleaning lady?" The old man stared at the radiant Stusi, somewhat bewildered.

“Yes.” Sieg nodded, turning to Stuart.

“Stusi, you’re fired starting today. Say hello to your new employer.”

"what?"

Upon hearing this, Stussy's expression immediately turned tearful.

"Is Mr. Sieg trying to find an excuse to get rid of me?"

Sieg took a half step back, watching Stussy warily.

Every time he saw this woman deliver a powerful performance, he felt a chill run down his spine and got goosebumps.

Just as Sieg was about to speak, a shout suddenly came from the side:

"stop!"

"We can't pretend we didn't see you bullying the elderly and women!"

Two righteous and awe-inspiring voices rang out.

Sieg looked up and saw two young men, around seventeen or eighteen years old, jogging over.

Seeing that Sieg was looking over, the two of them stopped and struck a pose.

The person on the left is wearing sunglasses, has short hair, and a tattoo of the Chinese character "海" (sea) on his left cheek. He has one hand across his waist and the other hand clenched into a fist, supporting his chin.

The man on the right was wearing a green, knee-length coat, but only shorts, revealing a hairy leg. His posture was basically symmetrical to the man in sunglasses on the left, except that he was resting his chin on his hand with a cigarette between his fingers.

“I’m Johnny, the bounty hunter,” the man in sunglasses said.

“I am Joseph,” the hairy-legged man also spoke up.

Johnny and Joseph shouted together:

"We are a bounty hunter team from the East China Sea. If you don't stop, we will..."

The bandits sneered, and several of them immediately surrounded them.

"What are you going to do?"

One of the bandits asked with a sneer, stretching his muscles and bones, which cracked all over.

Although these two men struck intimidating poses and did indeed carry knives at their waists, they were rather thin and did not look like strong men at all.

The bandits under Sig followed him all the way to Loguetown. Having seen a lot, they were not afraid of these two young men who called themselves bounty hunters.

Johnny and Joseph's faces paled slightly.

"We'll... report to the navy in Loguetown!"

The bandits exchanged glances and couldn't help but laugh.

However, Sieg then raised his hand and gestured for his men to step back, watching the two bounty hunters with great interest.

Of course he knew those two people.

Sword God Joseph!

Johnny the Sword Saint!

A peerless powerhouse standing shoulder to shoulder with Axe King Monka.

Ten years later, witnessing Zoro's failed challenge against Mihawk and being regarded as a weakling by Mihawk, the swordsman Joseph, enraged, uttered that world-shaking line:

"Luffy, hold me down like this. Otherwise, I might kill Mihawk!"

Sig had been worried about Hawkeye, whom he had encountered at sea, but when he saw Joseph the Swordsman and Johnny the Sword Saint appear, Sig knew...

This is a sure thing.

If I could draw a card similar to Monkaka, then cards like Hawkeye wouldn't even be worth mentioning!

"So it's the Sword God Joseph and the Sword Saint Johnny."

Sieg walked up with a faint smile and started a conversation.

"Sword...Sword God?"

"Sword Saint?"

Johnny and Joseph were initially bewildered, then surprised, and finally delighted.

It looks really fun.

"Have we finally made a name for ourselves? Sword God and Sword Saint, those titles are just too impressive!"

"Someone has already recognized us?"

"Mom, I'm finally famous!"
