I am the Bandit King of the East Sea.

He was in a great mood after finally meeting his fellow pirates.

"The East China Sea is heavily guarded by the navy and is now the weakest sea in terms of bounty, with an average bounty of only three million."

"But even in the weakest sea, there are still people like Rayleigh who are very strong but keep their identities hidden."

Shanks remembered someone he had met by chance in Windmill Village, and immediately smiled as he continued:

"The person I'm talking about should be someone Senior Rayleigh knows, after all, he and Captain Roger seem to be old acquaintances."

"Oh? Roger's old acquaintance?"

Rayleigh immediately became interested.

"Yes, that senior has been quite active lately. Judging from the recent news, he really caused quite a stir, and I guess he's already on the Grand Line."

Shanks sighed.

Hmm? Has some old guy caused a big scene recently?

Rayleigh pondered for a while, but couldn't come up with a character that matched Shanks' description.

Is it Shiki the Golden Lion? Sparky Jabba? Or some other crew member?

Something doesn't seem right.

Otherwise, Shanks wouldn't have said that Rayleigh should know him, but rather that Rayleigh definitely knows him.

So, could it be Roger's old rival or friend?

Was it Lone Red Redfield, or World Destroyer Waldo, who, like the Golden Lion, successfully escaped from Impel Down?

After thinking for a while, Rayleigh was still completely confused.

Who is this?

Chapter 153 Rayleigh and Shanks' Meeting

Shanks, oblivious to Rayleigh's confusion, looked at the wine glass in his hand, recalling his encounter with Sieg, and couldn't help but smile.

"Since that senior knew Captain Roger, he might also know Mr. Crocus at Twin Capes."

"Perhaps he's catching up with Mr. Crocus right now?"

Shanks smiled as he said this.

"Clowcas?"

Rayleigh sighed softly, a hint of sadness in his voice.

"Crocas and I are both getting on in years, and we really want to see him again."

These words made Shanks fall silent for a moment.

For someone like Rayleigh, simply living in seclusion in the Sabaody Archipelago would be fine.

However, if he wanders the world and secretly meets with the remnants of Roger's pirate crew, the consequences would be severe if the World Government found out.

After a moment of reflection, Rayleigh finally voiced his doubts.

"Shanks, who exactly is this person you're talking about?"

"It's Mr. Sig."

Shanks said Sig's name, but noticed that Rayleigh's expression seemed a little off.

"Senior Rayleigh? Don't you know Mr. Sig?"

Upon hearing this, Rayleigh gave him a deep look.

"Of course I know him."

Rayleigh's expression remained strange.

"So, Senior Rayleigh really knows Mr. Sig..."

He was halfway through his sentence when Rayleigh shook his head in denial:

"No... I only learned about this person from the newspaper yesterday, so I don't really know him."

He casually picked up a newspaper from the newsstand next to the bar and spread it out on the bar.

The front-page news photo was of Sieg standing on the execution platform in Loguetown.

"This guy named Sieg shouted 'anotherpiece' on the execution platform."

"Not just me, but all of our partners will probably remember this name."

Rayleigh chuckled, a clear look of surprise in his eyes.

"This guy, is he really Roger's friend? I've never seen him before."

Rayleigh is known as the right-hand man of the Pirate King and was Roger's first crewmate, making him the most senior.

But even Rayleigh had never heard of Roger having such a friend.

"Shanks, why do you think that Sig and Roger knew each other?"

Shanks' face also showed surprise; Rayleigh's reaction was not what he had expected.

He briefly recounted his encounter with Sieg in the windmill village.

"He really knows a lot..."

Rayleigh glanced at the photo of Sieg in the newspaper and shook his head:

"But I have never seen this face before, and Roger is not the kind of guy who would easily reveal so many secrets to others."

There is such a person who has quietly obtained so much secret information about the Roger Pirates.

And yet, as the vice-captain of the Pirate King and Roger's first crewmate, he had absolutely no recollection of him!

Rayleigh frowned, realizing that things were not so simple.

"Do you think he might be... CP0?"

"I've heard that the World Government has a very powerful intelligence agency. One of our pirate crew's greatest enemies, the World Destroyer Waldo, was captured because of a World Government spy."

As soon as he finished making this guess, Rayleigh shook his head and denied it.

If the Roger Pirates had truly been infiltrated by World Government spies, they probably wouldn't have disintegrated so easily.

The more I thought about it, the more confused I became, and I couldn't come up with a reasonable guess at all.

"Besides these, did Sig say anything else important?" Reilly pressed.

"Important information..."

Shanks tilted his head back and gulped down a large glass of wine, his cheeks gradually turning red. He recalled his drunken conversation with Siegfried and, slightly tipsy, began to speak:

He also said that he had already killed fifty-six of the Four Emperors like me.

"If he hadn't intervened, the four emperors wouldn't be the current ones dominating the seas; instead, there would be sixty pirate emperors!"

Rayleigh had just raised his glass, about to bring it to his lips, when he heard these words and paused, looking at Shanks with a strange light in his eyes.

"Did he really say that?"

"Absolutely true. He even listed the names of these great pirates who aspire to become emperors, such as Lone Red, the colossal warship San Juan Wolf..."

Rayleigh and Shanks stared at each other for a few seconds, then burst out laughing.

However, the strange light in Rayleigh's eyes shone even brighter.

"What an interesting fellow."

"He first deliberately provoked you in the tavern, and only started catching up with you after you weren't angry...and then he said something quite interesting after drinking..."

At this point, Rayleigh glanced at the newspaper spread out on the bar.

He challenged one of the Four Emperors, claiming to have defeated all fifty-six of them, and later even attacked a Celestial Dragon. On Roger's execution platform, he shouted "Anotherpiece..."

This man named Sieg did indeed do many outrageous things.

Looking at just one or two incidents, some of them seem like the actions of a reckless person who doesn't think things through.

But... after doing so many things, being valued by the World Government, and still being alive and well, that's quite intriguing.

Rayleigh said with a smile:

"Just now I was wondering if this was a spy from the World Government."

"However, now I'm starting to believe it."

"It's not surprising that such an interesting guy gets along with Roger."

Rayleigh suddenly became interested in Sieg.

An old friend who might know Roger, yet whom Roger knows nothing about... that's something to look forward to.

"Sigurd entered the Grand Line in such a high-profile manner, he would never stay here, he will definitely enter the New World."

"If I continue to wait in the Sabaody Archipelago, maybe I'll meet him again?"

Rayleigh had this thought in his mind, clinked glasses with Shanks, and continued chatting.

.........

Return to the Twin Capes at the entrance to the Grand Line.

Kurokas was already helping Sieg deal with the bloodstains, but the amount of bleeding was quite astonishing, and it would be difficult to treat in a short time.

This scene was obviously witnessed by Sieg's men.

At the time, they almost thought that Sieg and the vigorous old Crocus had done something like that in the cabin, causing severe bleeding from his anus... Of course, that didn't happen.

In short, after dealing with the bloodstains and the handover of the lighthouse keeper.

A pirate ship and an island whale several kilometers long set off.

"Speaking of which, Sig, which route did you choose? Did it pass through the Devil's Triangle?"
