I am the Bandit King of the East Sea.

"Vegapunk, this thing is called a laptop, it's an electronic technology product from... well, from another dimension."

Vegapunk knew the principle of the Bake-Bake Fruit. Unlike the Paint-Paint Fruit, this fruit could not create things; it could only reproduce people and things from memory.

In other words, the laptop in Sieg's hand must be an item that he has seen, used, and that actually existed.

This thing is clearly very different from the technology tree in the One Piece world, so it's not easy to fool it.

Laptops are modern mass-produced consumer goods, and behind them lies a vastly different modern industrial chain.

"Besides parallel worlds, have you ever been to a third world?" Vegapunk's eyes twitched, and he gave Sig a deep look, but did not continue to ask.

"So, what do you think? Let's see if we can do some research and try mass production?" Sig asked.

Whether I play games or not, whether I'm nostalgic or not, is not important. The main thing is that I want to do scientific research and experiments.

Not just laptops, other tech products can also be brought over.

After all, Vegapunk comes from 500 years in the future of the One Piece world.

Due to the differences in the technology trees between the two worlds, the technological level of Vegapunk's era is likely higher than that of his previous life.

A technology tree 500 years in the future, products from Earth's technology tree recreated through the Bake-Tanuk Fruit, and ancient kingdom technologies lost 800 years ago...

These are three distinct civilization technology trees; if we could compare and learn from them...

The future is promising, the future is promising indeed.

Vegapunk nodded and said, "I can try, but this is not a problem that can be solved in a day or two, and it will not help the war, so it is not a problem that we should deal with right now."

"So, should we try time travel?

“Let’s go, let’s go now,” Sieg said decisively.

"However, there is one last thing to do before we go back to ancient times."

A moment later.

Above the windless island of ribbonfish, an ironclad warship, enveloped in telekinesis, soared into the sky and disappeared into the clouds.

...........................

Several days later, deep in the New World, in the waters of Elbaf, the land of giants, on a floating island atop the World Tree, the ironclad warship arrived once again.

On a wide, seven-colored rainbow bridge, the gods and angels of yesteryear stood together, gazing at the ironclad warships in the clouds.

A massive black shadow appeared from the top of the World Tree in the sky; it was the Black Flame Dragon flapping its wings and taking flight.

"Sieg has reappeared..."

The one-armed guardian of the divine kingdom stood on the rainbow bridge, his expression slightly complicated.

A year ago, the God-King had planned a counterattack against the World Government, but the arrival of Sigurd shattered years of preparation, and the centuries-old order of the God Kingdom collapsed...

Before the gatekeeper and the other Sky Islanders could think, Sig's voice suddenly rang out from the sky.

"Residents of the Sky Island, I ask you, would you like to move to the land of the Blue Ocean to live?"

As soon as he finished speaking, all the Sky Island inhabitants were suddenly stunned.

They've been told the grand promise of conquering the blue ocean for centuries, so of course they know what Sieg's words mean.

The former divine kingdom was not weak; with their power, it would not be difficult for them to quietly become the dominant power in a certain sea area of ​​the new world.

But they did not do so; the vast majority of the people of the divine kingdom hid on the nine sky islands above, and have remained there ever since.

The reason for this is, of course, the threat posed by the Celestial Dragons and the World Government.

“Sigurd intends to be an enemy of the World Government... This is an opportunity.”

"Can we also live on land in the blue sea?" The people of the Sky Island began to discuss, and the crowd gradually became excited.

Their reaction was similar to that of the residents of Fishman Island.

Whether it's Fishman Island or Sky Island, although one can live there for a long time, there are still some inconveniences. The residents of these places all yearn to live on land in the blue sea.

"Yes, of course we are willing." Both the gods and angels of yesteryear agreed.

During the reign of the God-King, they were already mentally prepared to launch a counterattack against the World Government.

And now... recalling the scene of Sig standing in the sky and shattering the towering Titan God-King thousands of meters high, everyone was filled with excitement.

Sig was so powerful back then that they were filled with despair.

And when such a powerful figure becomes the leader of their united front... the stronger the sense of despair before, the stronger the sense of security now.

Of course, the Sky Islanders' return to life on the sea should happen after the war, not now.

What Sieg needs to do now is something else entirely.

He stood in the air, his psychic powers sweeping in all directions like a tsunami.

The divine island beneath their feet trembled violently, and under the control of this powerful force, it gradually rose from the top of the World Tree and then landed on a nearby island cloud.

The Divine Island is located at the top of the World Tree's trunk, but it is also surrounded by island clouds and sea clouds.

For example, the Arena of the Gods came from a small island cloud in the surrounding area.

After placing the divine island in the clouds, relocating the island becomes much easier.

Meanwhile, Sieg had another matter to attend to.

Under everyone's watchful eyes, his body soared through the air and landed on the bare trunk of the World Tree.

Now, Yangshu Eve is already inside Sig.

With Eve present, Adam could also be contained within the precious tree, and Sieg naturally hoped to attempt to seal away this largest tree in the world.

"I'm ready, come in, Tree Sauce."

A surge of black flames erupted and coiled around the enormous World Tree.

roar....

The Black Flame Dragon seemed to sense something; it flapped its wings and flew through the air, its roar stirring up the clouds.

Rumble, the World Tree began to tremble again... and then... and then nothing.

Silence returned, the World Tree remained, and this attempt ended in failure once again.

"Did it fail?" Sig stood up and shook his head.

Strictly speaking, the size of the Sun Tree Eve is not much smaller than that of the World Tree; both are giant trees exceeding ten thousand meters in length. Given the Sun Tree Eve's own abilities, Sieg thought it should be possible to succeed...

"let it go."

Sig stood up, and his body flew back to the island of gods.

Fortunately, he hadn't told the gatekeepers and other Sky Island residents that he had tried to take the World Tree away. These people didn't know what Sig was doing and just looked at him with puzzled and impressed eyes.

"Ahem... Anyway, let's prepare for the battle from now on."

Sieg gave a few instructions, then his gaze fell below the sea of ​​clouds, where the giant kingdom of Elbaf was located.

The gatekeeper followed Sieg's gaze and immediately understood. He spoke:

"The Giant Kingdom of Elbaf has a good relationship with our divine kingdom... and with our Sky Kingdom. It shouldn't be a problem to persuade them to join the war."

"That's good." Sig nodded, handing over the task to the bald man beside him and the gatekeeper of the Sky Island.

In fact, the giant nation of Elbaf had been at odds with the World Government for many years, and only because of Sister Carmel did the conflict briefly ease.

Now that Siegfried has exposed the truth that Sister Carmel is a human trafficker, the relationship between Elbaf and the World Government has naturally deteriorated again.

With the matters concerning the Sky Kingdom and the World Tree settled, Sig was preparing to make final preparations with Vegapunk when a fierce wind suddenly swept across their faces.

A massive black shadow descended, and the Black Flame Dragon crashed to the ground.

Having not seen it for a long time, it seemed quite excited, its mountain-like dragon head approaching Sieg.

Sig was about to reach out and touch the dragon when the Black Flame Dragon sniffed him closely, then opened its blood-red maw and began to lick Sig's right leg with its tongue.

This doesn't feel like a long-awaited reunion at all; it seems like it's just... a craving?

"It seems to be able to sense the Sun Tree Eve residing on its right leg?" Sig pondered for a moment.

During the Impel Down war 12 years ago, the Black Flame Dragon emerged from beneath the Holy Land, and gnaw marks appeared on the trunk of the Sun Tree Eve... This seems to be its favorite food, just like the World Tree?

Sig thought about it and had an idea.

However, it will have to wait until the next day to be implemented.

He had just sent the bandits back to the island to rest when he turned around and saw a familiar face.

“Mr. Sig, it’s been a long time.” Luo walked over from the other side of the street, and when he saw Sig, his expression clearly showed relief.

"How did you end up here?" Sig asked in surprise.

Logically speaking, Law should have already left and embarked on his pirate journey.

"It's because of Vergo," Luo said in a deep voice.

"After the fall of the Don Quixote family, Vergo, who was then a vice admiral, was transferred and is now one of the vice admirals stationed at the Navy Headquarters."

"If I were to storm the Marine Headquarters, I would be courting death."

Luo looked up at Sieg and continued:

"Some time ago, I heard that you, Mr. Sig, declared war on the World Government, but since we couldn't find you, we had to return to this sky island."

Killing a vice admiral stationed at the Navy Headquarters with one's own strength is no easy task.

“I see. Well then, welcome back.” Sig nodded.

At this point, a mere user of the Ope Ope no Devil Fruit has little impact on the Liangshan Alliance.

"By the way, how much do you know about the immortality surgery?" Sig suddenly asked.

Luo was taken aback, then began to explain:

"It is said that this is a technique that can only be used when the Op-Op Fruit is trained to the highest level, granting one person immortality, but at the cost of the Op-Op Fruit user's life."

"The amazing thing is that even after the ability user dies, the effects of the immortality surgery will continue indefinitely."

"Perhaps this is the technique after the Ope Ope no Mi (Op-Op Fruit) awakens?" Law guessed.

Most Devil Fruit abilities require the user to maintain them.

Therefore, the effect will disappear when the user falls into a coma or dies, but this is not the case with the immortality surgery.
