I am the Bandit King of the East Sea.

I got up in the middle of the night to write this, and I haven't looked back yet. Please forgive any mistakes or omissions. I'm going to sleep now.

Chapter 1291 Hawkeye 4k

Sig burst out of the sea carrying Im's body and reboarded the Kronos ship, which was now hovering in the air.

The focus of the entire battlefield immediately turned to that man.

Im is dead. This Void Throne Lord who lived for eight hundred years and was the mastermind behind the world for eight hundred years, finally died at the hands of Sieg.

The victor is king, the loser is villain.

In this battle, Sigurd, who once cleaved the Red Line with a single sword and ultimately killed Im with his own hands, was no less mysterious and powerful than Im, and perhaps even more so.

When the seven Siegs at different points in time besieged Im, the guy sitting on the coffin sunbathing was even more like the mastermind behind the world than Im himself.

Faced with such a powerful and mysterious figure, as lofty and unapproachable as Im, the Five Elders immediately lost their will to fight.

"Lord Im...is he dead?"

The bearded old man's eyes momentarily lost focus.

The World Government forces were already at a disadvantage, and defeat was only a matter of time; they were just barely holding on.

The mysterious and powerful Im is seen by the Five Elders as their last chance to turn the tide.

When Sieg himself extinguished their last glimmer of hope, they had completely lost the will to continue fighting.

"How to do?"

"Surrender? If you surrender, perhaps you can get lenient treatment?"

The bearded Five Elders suddenly felt a little envious of the Five Elders with the mustache who was bewitched by the cat. If he had been the one to go see the cat back then, he would be the so-called "undercover agent" now, right?

The last remnants of the army surrendered without resistance. The remaining Five Elders and Celestial Dragons were shackled by the Navy and fell from their high positions as Celestial Dragons into prisoners.

The war is over.

Sunlight streamed through the portholes, falling on the now-ruined Pangu City spaceship.

Amidst the broken walls and ruins, eerie, dark flames still lingered, like wisps of silk.

Sig sat quietly on the coffin of rebirth, his gaze slightly unfocused, his whole body bathed in sunlight.

Gulp gulp....

Sieg took out a bottle of liquor and gulped down two mouthfuls, seemingly somewhat sentimental, his eyes slightly unfocused.

"A new era has begun, and a new era should have a new order."

“Mountain bandits should act like mountain bandits. Next, I will announce the new Four Emperors of the Mountain Bandits, as well as the candidates for the Seven Warlords of the Kingdom.”

“I’ve already thought of your titles; they must be even cooler than those of the emperors of the old era.”

"..."

"Stusi, Big Mom's World of Warcraft will be your territory from now on. As for your title, how about we call you Big Grandma Mom..."

"Sig, you're drunk." Suddenly, an invisible door opened, and Stussy appeared behind Sig, expressionlessly snatching the bottle from Sig's hand.

Sig stared blankly at his empty hands.

"Yes, that's right, I drank too much."

He gently closed his eyes, using the life-giving technique to control his internal organs to accelerate the digestion of alcohol.

When he opened his eyes again, the dazed feeling was gone.

I originally wanted to relax a bit, but now I realize it's not the time to completely relax yet.

"Mountain bandits and the Four Emperors? The Seven Warlords of the Mountain? There's no need for that anymore. I was just talking nonsense." Sig coughed lightly.

Mountain bandits have breached the sacred site of Mary Geoise, the highest peak in the world.

Meanwhile, the bandit king cleaved through the Red Earth Continent, the world's largest mountain range stretching for 40,000 kilometers, with a single sword strike...

After such a long and arduous journey, if all that's left is to seize the Bird Throne, become the new Celestial Dragon, and establish fiefdoms... then that really doesn't mean much.

Sieg shook his head, put down the bottle, laughed, and walked away.

The warm sunlight seemed to shroud his entire body in a halo.

The bald man also stood in the sunlight, looking at Sig's back as always. His shiny forehead reflected the sunlight, like a smooth hard-boiled egg.

"The Mountain Bandit King has finally conquered the world's highest peak, the Holy Land Mary Geoise." The bald man looked at Sig's back, his gaze momentarily unfocused.

It felt like going back to the beginning, back when we were trying to figure out Sieg's intentions and the true meaning of the Mountain Bandit King.

"There exists a mountain in the world that deserves the title of the world's only mountain bandit king."

"Once we conquer this mountain, the title of Mountain Bandit King will be no less prestigious than that of the so-called Pirate King!"

This was the glorious achievement that once thrilled the bald man, but when they began to come into contact with the revolutionary army and the wider world...

"Back then, I lacked vision and had a narrow perspective," the bald man sighed to himself.

On the other side, Gilman held a camera and a Den Den Mushi (snail phone), taking pictures of the ruins.

"Take a couple more pictures! This time, it's a truly once-in-a-lifetime, world-class news story!" Morgans said excitedly, and immediately took out paper and pen to write a news report.

Im is dead, the Celestial Dragons have fallen from grace, and the World Government, which has ruled the world for eight hundred years, is about to perish.

This kind of big news will definitely set the world on fire in an instant!

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

Barrett used her Devil Fruit powers to maneuver the spaceship, attempting to make basic repairs to its interior. At Sig's request, she also guided the ship toward Marine Headquarters.

The Kronos spacecraft was designed as an interstellar colony ship, and it was extremely fast, with a maximum speed of more than two kilometers per second within the atmosphere.

At such a speed, only space-type ability users like Stussy have a chance to catch up.

Before long, the spaceship returned to the skies above the original holy site, which is the area where Marineford, the headquarters of the Navy, is located.

From the air, this place has changed dramatically.

During the Marineford War, Siegfried caught Uranus with his bare hands and pierced through the Red Line, creating a massive hole the size of Marineford in the mountainside.

This time, the Red Line has been severed in the middle, creating a vast gap that is unlike anything seen before.

"The world has changed."

"From this day forward, the four seas will be united into one ocean, and the Red Line will no longer be a wall separating the Grand Line."

Roger looked down at the sea through the porthole, his eyes filled with emotion. But suddenly, his eyes twitched. From the harbor of Marineford, the Marine Headquarters, he saw a familiar pirate ship on the sea below.

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

At this moment, the Red-Haired Pirates stood at Marine Headquarters, looking at the enormous Kronos spaceship in the sky with a sense of impending doom.

Hawkeye and the Red-Haired Pirates arrived together, intending to participate in the war and help Liangshan Marsh, but they were a little late.

Before they could even reach the Holy Land to fight, they happened to witness Higuma cleave the Red Line in two with a single sword strike... But when a section of the Red Line fell into the sea, it immediately triggered a tsunami. It was only by the combined efforts of the Red-Haired Pirates and Mihawk that the tsunami was stopped.

After the tsunami, they followed the tide and landed at Marineford, the headquarters of the Navy. With the intention of helping the Liangshan Marsh hold back the Navy Headquarters since they couldn't go to the Holy Land, they engaged in battle with the Navy Headquarters.

The main force of the navy has been deployed to rescue the holy site, leaving it vulnerable.

The remaining defenders were no match for a full Yonko crew plus Hawkeye, and were forced into retreat.

But before they could even catch their breath, another massive spaceship appeared in the sky, shattering the worldviews of these great pirates...

"This is the World Government's spaceship!"

"Don't let your guard down!"

The Red-Haired Pirates stood ready, while Hawkeye reached out and drew his black sword, Yoru, once again, an invisible, condensed aura gathering within him.

Whether it's the giant serpent that the Red Line transformed into or the Kronos spaceship, both are beyond the capabilities of these pirates who make a living on the high seas.

next moment.

The spaceship hatch opened, and a huge crowd of people emerged from it.

Pirate King Roger, Revolutionary Army leader Dragon, Marine Admiral Akainu... these powerful figures from different factions walked out side by side, followed by a procession escorting Celestial Dragon prisoners, leaving Shanks and the Marines stunned on the spot.

"What are you standing there for? The war is over." Akainu looked at his headquarters garrison, his tightly furrowed brows gradually relaxing.

"The chief culprit Im has been executed, the Five Elders have been captured, and the World Government no longer exists."

"There are too many Celestial Dragons from the nineteen families of the Holy Land, plus the war criminals from CP0, there aren't enough shackles to go around."

"Bring all the shackles from headquarters' inventory."

"...Yes!" The navy men's expressions changed, and it took them a long time to come to their senses that their own admiral had defected and the World Government had been destroyed.

Shanks and Hawkeye, however, focused their attention more on Sigurd in the crowd.

Those who did not participate in the war directly were unaware of the specific details of the conflict.

All they knew was that earth-shattering sword strike that cleaved the Red Earth Continent...

Hawkeye's gaze wavered slightly, and the Black Blade Night, which had been charging up to its limit, slowly returned to its sheath.

He still had the will to challenge Whitebeard, but after witnessing that earth-shattering sword strike, he saw the immeasurable gap between them.

"Only today do I realize how vast and boundless the world is."

This sword strike shattered his last vestiges of pride and arrogance, but it also allowed him to see a much wider world.

In every previous encounter with Sieg, even if the experience was terrible, he still felt a fighting spirit, but this time...

He put the black sword Night back on his back, without saying goodbye to Sig, but after a long period of contemplation, he turned and walked away.

He had once reached the pinnacle of swordsmanship, and with the heart of a grandmaster, he drew his sword and looked around in bewilderment, only able to hope that a junior like Zoro would catch up with him and become his rival.

And now...

"Pirate King Roger, Whitebeard, the lone Red Red Redfield... There are still so many towering figures in this world. It's a blessing to be born in such an era."

"Even more fortunately, there is such an amazing mountain."

He didn't care whether the World Government was destroyed or whether Im lived or died.

He had come with Shanks, but this time he abandoned Shanks and left alone in silence.

The war is over, and he still lacks the confidence to challenge Sieg, so there's no point in staying here.
