I am the Bandit King of the East Sea.

But after experiencing so much on the ship, Stusi always felt a bit inferior to Sieg.

She couldn't even muster the thought of refuting Sieg's half-threatening words.

"So next, I need your Happy Street to help me with something."

Sieg said:

"I need information on the Devil's Triangle, nautical charts, the best sailing routes, and permanent markers for the islands near the Devil's Triangle."

The permanent pointer Sig must be obtained.

Although he had the permanent pointer to Alabasta, this route was impassable.

Alabasta's next stop is the Sky Island!

Putting aside how to get to the sky island, even if we could find an upwelling current, could Laboon still fly?

Sieg couldn't follow the original route exactly, so he had to come up with another idea.

"Furthermore... the Island of All Things is one of the commercial hubs in the first half of the Grand Line, and it's controlled by you kings of the dark world. There must be a black market here where Devil Fruits circulate, right?"

Sigurd had his eye on the Devil Fruit.

His current crew is basically all from the East Blue. Apart from a few people like Arlong, they are not very capable in the first half of the Grand Line.

Once his own men are strong enough to defend themselves, then Sieg can...

I've changed my appearance and identity to become a lazy bum!

Stussy pondered for a moment, then spoke:

"I can help you with the matter of the Devil's Triangle."

"But Devil Fruits are priceless and unavailable; at most, I can only provide you with information."

At this point, Stussy, seemingly afraid of upsetting Sieg, offered a few words of explanation.

"Wanwu Island Amusement Street looks prosperous and is developing rapidly, but it is entirely supported by the New World Amusement Street burning money."

"Now New World Amusement Street has slipped out of my control, its funding chain has broken, and Wanwu Island Amusement Street is in trouble."

"During this period, I will not allocate my precious funds to help you purchase Devil Fruits."

While Sigurd secretly regretted it, he didn't want to give up the Devil Fruit.

Having the entertainment district on this island is already a huge help.

This is a golden opportunity to acquire a Devil Fruit, as long as I have enough money...

Thinking about the money, an idea popped into Sieg's head, and he glanced at the treasure map on the table.

He had an idea.

If others can forge treasure maps, why can't he?

No! I am the owner of the treasure!

The treasure maps I forge must all be real!

A colossal lie has been arranged!

Sudden.

A semi-transparent panel quickly unfolded in front of Sieg.

"Task triggered".

"Task: A Small Goal"

Mission objective: Earn 1 million Berries.

Task Reward: One chance to draw a random card.

After reviewing the new mission, Sieg pondered for a moment, then suddenly asked:

"Stusi, since this Island of Everything is the territory of the kings of the dark world, does News King Morgans have any territory here?"

...........

Outside the bar's private rooms.

Crocus and the others were drinking and talking loudly at the bar.

Only the bald man was there, glancing towards the private room from time to time, a sense of unease creeping into his mind.

"That Annie has been out for so long... Are Boss Sig and Miss Stussy alone in the private room right now?"

After a while, the door to the private room finally opened.

The bald man looked up and saw Sieg and Stusi walking out one after the other.

His gaze did not fall on Sieg, but on Stussy.

At this moment, Stussy had regained her dark queen demeanor.

Although I was standing behind Sieg, I was a tiny bit shorter.

"Miss Stussy's demeanor has changed; it's as if she's been reborn and become a completely different person."

The bald man paused for a moment, then a maternal smile spread across his face.

"Has Miss Stussy finally turned things around? It seems something transformative happened in the private room..."

"So, Boss Sig really did put me in charge of keeping an eye on Miss Stussy because he considered her his personal possession? He was just too embarrassed to admit it after I called him out on it..."

Chapter 162 Sig's bombshell revelation

The Island of Everything is controlled by the kings of the dark world, and Morgans, the king of news, also has a branch of the World Economic News Agency here.

At this moment, Sieg and the others had already arrived outside the news agency's branch building.

Sig is no longer an unknown figure.

This was a formal visit, so the branch naturally had to give them face and quickly welcomed Sieg and his entourage into the branch editor-in-chief's office.

The editor-in-chief had to leave temporarily, and while waiting, Sieg casually glanced around the office.

In this office, there are sample copies of the World Economic Herald and clippings of major news from previous years in many places.

Sieg glanced around casually, then his gaze fell on the newspaper on the top of the desk.

The newspaper looked freshly printed; it still smelled of fresh ink.

One of the news photos on it caught Sieg's eye.

Isn't this the port of Wanwu Island, the place where he first met the people of Happy Street? It's already been photographed by the World Economic Daily.

The title of this news report is "The Queen of Pleasure Street and the King of the Sea Bandits Return in Triumph."

Just then, the editor-in-chief's office door opened, and a polite middle-aged gentleman walked in.

He is the editor-in-chief of the Wanwu Island branch of World Economic News Agency.

Seeing Sieg staring at the newly printed newspaper, the editor-in-chief looked a little flustered.

“Mr. Sieg, this newspaper is only a draft; we haven't finalized it yet, and it's still open to discussion…”

The editor-in-chief was a little flustered; the person in question had arrived halfway through writing the news, which was somewhat embarrassing.

Unexpectedly, Sieg nodded and said:

"This news article is quite well written."

"However, my personal suggestion is that if you want to improve it, you could choose a more attractive title."

"For example, 'Shocking! The man behind the Queen of Pleasure Street has suddenly appeared!'"

"As for the content, it can be hinted that the true owner of this Wanwu Island Amusement Street is actually a mysterious and powerful man."

That's what Sieg said.

This sentence was like a revelation to the editor-in-chief.

The things Sieg said were quite revealing...

Half of the initial draft of the newspaper he had prepared was based on that photo of the port; he made up stories from the picture, and there was an element of speculation involved.

But what is this now? The person involved has come forward in person and admitted it himself!

"This...this is really big news! And the headline that Mr. Sig chose is absolutely brilliant!"

As the editor-in-chief of this branch, he was well-versed in the laws of media communication and naturally knew how attractive the headline that Seager had chosen was.

"Mr. Sig, is it really okay to use this kind of title?"

"The editor-in-chief asked."

“Use it freely,” Sieg nodded.

His coming here was not a spur-of-the-moment decision.

If you're going to act with Stuart, you have to play the part completely.

First, it's a performance for the world government to see; second, it's to build momentum for themselves and pave the way for future plans.

As for the negative impacts of fame...

Sieg was no longer an unknown figure; fame is like a snowball, once it starts, it can't be stopped.

Anyway, he'll get rid of the identity of the bandit king sooner or later.

"I've come here mainly to deliver a big news story to your news agency."

"Isn't Morgans here? Then bring his Den Den Mushi, I want to talk to Morgans."

Sieg glanced directly at the editor-in-chief, exuding an aura of authority.

Accompanying him was the Queen of Pleasure Street, whose identity had already been revealed.

In terms of status, as kings of the underworld, he could naturally stand on equal footing with Morgans, the head of the press.

The editor-in-chief hadn't even warmed his chair before he pulled out Morgans' Den Den Mushi (a type of electric scooter) with a wry smile and dialed the number.

Sieg didn't mince words, offering only a few polite exchanges before getting straight to the point:

"Morgans, the main reason I'm here is to give you a big news story."
