I am the Bandit King of the East Sea.

Perhaps in the future, when his swordsmanship has improved, he will reappear before the world.

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

When the spaceship landed and temporarily docked at Marineford, and when news of the World Government's destruction and the Celestial Dragons and the Five Elders becoming prisoners spread throughout Marineford, the entire Marine Headquarters was in an uproar.

The obese Celestial Dragons were all trembling in fear, wearing shackles, as were the Five Elders.

"Kill the Celestial Dragons!"

"Kill the Celestial Dragons!"

Amidst the excited boos, Saint Musgard couldn't help but shrink back, and the other Celestial Dragons around him who had participated in the rebellion also felt somewhat uneasy.

Don Quixote Musgarud suddenly remembered the Homingu family, who were also Don Quixotes.

Don Quixote Homingo was an anomaly among the Celestial Dragons. He voluntarily gave up his Celestial Dragon identity and left the Holy Land to become human, but his identity was exposed, and he was tortured to death by an angry mob.

His current situation immediately reminded him of his naive cousin in the family.

"Huh? How come there are still a few Celestial Dragons who escaped here?" a voice came from the side.

The heavy footsteps drew closer as the World Destroyer Bondiwald strode forward, coldly looking down at Saint Musgarud and the others.

Among the many great pirates, Wald harbored the deepest hatred for the Celestial Dragons. He had killed more than one Celestial Dragon, and was therefore besieged by CP0 and the Navy.

“Celestial Dragons…” Wald’s gaze turned cold as he reached out to grab Saint Musgard and the others.

"Dragon Claw Fist!" A lithe figure flashed past, and Sabo, who had been guarding the side, grabbed with one hand in a claw shape to block Vald's attack.

"Revolutionary Army? Why are you stopping me?" Wald's expression darkened slightly.

"I only intend to kill a few Celestial Dragons."

"Isn't your Revolutionary Army's goal to overthrow the Celestial Dragons' rule?"

“It is precisely because we are the Revolutionary Army that we will not become mobs that burn the Celestial Dragons.” Sabo pulled a water pipe from behind his back and confronted Wald.

Meanwhile, Bartholomew Kuma, Ivankov, and other Revolutionary Army cadres have arrived and are standing with Sabo.

“It seems your ideological awareness is not high enough; you haven’t memorized Mr. Sieg’s speech, have you?” Sabo shook his head.

"Moreover, they are heroes." He pointed to Phoenix Palace and the others behind him:

"These Celestial Dragons joined forces with the great scientist Vegapunk to launch a rebellion, disrupting the operation of the Chronos spaceship. Only in this way did we have the opportunity to catch up with the World Government's spaceship, so their contribution is indispensable."

These words were naturally spoken by Phoenix Palace after the Allied forces stormed the spaceship.

"You believe what the Celestial Dragons say?" Wald shook his head.

"If we're talking about meritorious service, it should be us, the participants in the war." He looked coldly at the revolutionary soldiers in front of him, taking steps forward and gradually approaching.

Sabo was no match for him; only the strangely powerful Bartholomew Kuma could catch his eye, but that was all.

Chapter 1292 Passing on the Torch 5k

Wald strode toward Sabo, deliberately slowing his pace so that the heavy sound of his footsteps echoed around him.

The atmosphere grew increasingly tense.

"Kill the Celestial Dragons!"

"Kill the Celestial Dragons!"

In the distance, several powerful pirates began to stir up trouble. They were the fifty-six emperors who had followed Higuma into battle. These men, who had been imprisoned in Impel Down, were not exactly benevolent; they all thrived on chaos.

But the commotion suddenly stopped, and even Wald's footsteps abruptly ceased, his expression changing slightly.

Someone had appeared in front of Sabo without him noticing.

“I originally came here just to find Big Bear… but what are you doing?” Sig looked up at Wald.

Because of his height, Sig looked up at Wald with a calm gaze, without displaying any Conqueror's Haki or Emperor Engine.

But Wald and the others suddenly found themselves speechless.

Having witnessed Sig's battles multiple times, especially the last two times he severed the Red Line and killed Im, anyone standing in front of Sig would feel tense and uneasy.

This power was beyond the comprehension of these great pirates; it was simply incomprehensible.

"I just want to kill a few Celestial Dragons, is there a problem?" Of the fifty-six Emperors, only Wald was still able to speak.

“You should still remember our original deal,” Sieg said calmly.

Among the fifty-six emperors, Vald was a special case.

Besides possessing the ridiculously powerful Momo-Momo Fruit, he has also made up for his weakness in Haki, and his raw strength is enough to place him among the top powerhouses.

After the Golden Lion died, Wald was imprisoned by Sieg.

Sieg has no intention of releasing Wald, this dangerous individual, from prison.

It was only by offering the condition of "avenging the Celestial Dragons" that Wald was temporarily released from prison and made to obey him.

In the recently concluded war, Wald used the Momo Fruit to multiply the explosive rock by a hundredfold, which played a significant role in resisting the bombardment of Uranus, the King of the Universe.

“You…” Wald hesitated for a moment, then shouted:

"I shed blood for Liangshan Marsh, and my Momo Fruit has served to defend against the Heavenly King!"

"And now it's just killing a few Celestial Dragons."

As soon as he finished speaking, the other fifty-six emperors also showed strange expressions.

"Your Momo-Momo Fruit is indeed very powerful," Sigurd said in a low voice.

"So don't give me a reason to kill you."

Wald's pupils contracted slightly.

In the Liangshan Marsh today, there are no shortage of people with top-notch strength, comparable to or even surpassing Wald, who are powerless.

For example, Rayleigh, Roger... and of course, Sigurd himself. If any of them obtained the Momo-Momo Fruit, it would be like adding wings to a tiger, and they might create a monster far more powerful than Wald.

When Wald was defeated and imprisoned, Sieg could have killed him and taken the fruit, but he didn't want to.

Stealing Devil Fruits isn't out of the question.

Sig has stolen quite a lot of things before. He once even took the entire Punk Hazard laboratory, along with its people and land, truly a case of taking a feather from a passing goose.

However, Sieg didn't want to kill people simply to obtain a powerful Devil Fruit.

Now, there's very little left to restrain him. If he continues down this path, will he try to seize even more powerful fruits in the future?

If he is more powerful than anyone else in the world, does that mean he should grab every good thing he sees that is even slightly discounted?

Wald's pupils contracted slightly, and with a final cold snort, he snatched the seastone handcuffs from a nervous-looking navy man beside him and, with a click, handcuffed himself.

"The victor is king, the loser is villain. Are you satisfied now?" Wald sneered and closed his eyes.

His only wish was to take revenge on the World Government, and now that his wish has been fulfilled, he does not ask for anything more.

This scene caused the fifty-sixth emperor to unconsciously change color.

Although they were unaware of the deal between Wald and Sieg, they finally realized that something was amiss...

"Sig's attitude doesn't seem like that of someone dealing with a meritorious official..."

"Shouldn't we be rewarding those who have made contributions now?" The fifty-sixth emperor's expression changed.

Initially, the Golden Lion lured them to join by offering them eternal youth and the chance to rule the world in place of the World Government.

I thought Sig and Shiki shared the same ambitions, but now it seems a bit off.

However, Sieg ignored them.

Among the Celestial Dragons, there was a female Celestial Dragon with orange hair in a bun who kept staring at him, even when she was confronting Wald earlier.

Sieg cleared his throat:

"You are... Phoenix Palace?"

He also had a strong impression of this Celestial Dragon, having seen her once before in Impel Down prison.

The main thing is that they also gave Sieg a 5 billion bounty, which immediately solved half of the 10 billion shortfall.

“My name is Phoenix, and I don’t have a palace. There are no Celestial Dragons anymore.” Phoenix’s eyes gleamed with wonder.

“We’ve met before in God Valley. And it wasn’t just me…” Phoenix looked at the Celestial Dragons behind her:

"They're the same. Most of us traitors among the Celestial Dragons are survivors of God Valley."

"We were awakened from the Celestial Dragons' dream the moment Im fired Uranus at God Valley."

The Celestial Dragons consider themselves gods, but under Uranus, they are no more noble than ordinary pirates or marines.

The seeds sown during the God Valley incident gradually took root and sprouted over the years, finally bearing fruit at the moment when Im launched the spaceship.

In fact, there is still a Uranus, the King of the Gods, suspended in the sky, but he is no longer important.

Given Im's character, it is clear that he would not relinquish the authority of the King of Heaven to another. A King of Heaven without a master and without control cannot cause any trouble.

After a brief self-introduction, Phoenix took out the black metal box from her pocket.

"A relic given to me by Vegapunk?" Sig took the box and examined it for a moment, not understanding what it was.

"Let's find another Vegapunk clone later."

After accepting the box, Tyrant Bear walked over to Sig with practiced ease, took off his white gloves, and revealed a pair of fleshy paws that resembled bear paws.

He gently patted Sieg on the shoulder.

A faint, transparent red bubble was quickly expelled from Sieg's back, swaying gently in the wind like a large soap bubble.

But the bear's expression changed slightly.

This bubble is as big as a ship that can hold a hundred people. Judging by its size, it's not much smaller than the one from the Marineford War.

"Thank you for your hard work, Sig." The bear withdrew its hand, its tone very soft.

"What a useful ability..." Sig slowly closed his eyes.

"Later, I'll also use a deformable leaf to make one..."

Xiong's eye twitched.

Sieg plans to create another Tyrant Bear exactly like him, specifically to massage his shoulders and legs. Does he really think he's a bear technician?
