I am the Bandit King of the East Sea.

"Coincidentally, we have some important intelligence about him."

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

At a time when the name of the bandit king, Sig, caused undercurrents in the Goa Kingdom and attracted the attention of many forces.

At the very heart of this storm, Sieg, the culprit in the eyes of countless people, was living a very peaceful life.

His life was uneventful, even surprising to Sieg himself.

During this time, Sieg deliberately avoided his subordinates and tried to train his Emperor Engine heart.

The exercise also put him in a good mood.

On this day, after running 10km, Sig was on his way back to the mountain village.

I reached out and felt my heartbeat.

The Emperor Engine's performance has given Sieg a powerful heart.

Even during high-intensity physical exercise, Sieg's heart rate can remain stable for a long time, meaning he has excellent physical fitness.

Sig's physical strength was significantly weaker.

Of course, Sieg is only just starting to train, and it's impossible for him to make much progress in just a few days.

"Hello, boss."

"Boss Sig."

"Boss."

Along the mountain road, bandits wearing headscarves would occasionally greet Sig.

Sieg responded with a slight nod.

He was quite satisfied.

"I gave that most showy bald guy a nudge a few days ago, and it still had some effect."

"These past few days, they've rarely bothered me, never mentioning anything about plundering the kingdom's capital..."

Sig's impression of his bandits had changed somewhat.

"Perfect, absolutely perfect. My subordinates are very obedient, and life is very peaceful."

"My plan was quite successful."

Facing the mountains, Sig felt content:

"As long as I hide in the mountains and live a low-key life, whether the Navy hero Garp comes or not has nothing to do with me."

He continued walking along the mountain path with a calm mind.

"Hello, boss."

"Mr. Sig."

"Boss Sig..."

The closer you get to the mountain stronghold, the more bandits you'll encounter.

In the end, Sieg couldn't help but start to have doubts.

Do I have that many men?

Sig was a little confused.

These past few days, he's been deliberately avoiding his subordinates while training, lest his image as a big shot collapse. He really hasn't been paying much attention to his subordinates.

Sig narrowed his eyes, grabbed a passing bandit, and scanned him with his gaze.

The bandit in front of them was at least two meters tall, much taller than Sig who was 1.9 meters tall, and was also very burly with broad shoulders and a thick waist.

Such a size is quite rare even among mountain bandits.

"Are you really one of my men? You look so unfamiliar."

Sieg looked up and asked.

Chapter 15 A Touching Story

Upon hearing this, the burly bandit scratched his head, looking quite surprised.

"Boss, it's me, Gilman. Don't you recognize me?"

Gilman...who is that?

Sig was a little confused, but he nodded slightly on the surface.

In this situation, it would be somewhat awkward to say that you don't remember the other person at all.

"Oh, it's Gilman..."

Sieg patted Gilman's muscular arm and smiled:

"You've worked out really well, I almost didn't recognize you."

"I knew the boss wouldn't forget me."

Gilman scratched his head and breathed a sigh of relief:

"After all, you said before that you would cheer me on for my dream of becoming the Mountain Bandit King of the East Sea."

"But boss, I'm not the same person I was a few days ago."

"My new dream is to see you, Boss, reach the top of the world and become the only Mountain Bandit King in the world!"

"Boss, although I am just a newcomer to the Sig Mountain Bandits and my strength is far inferior to yours, please allow me to continue to follow behind you and contribute to your cause!"

"So you're new here. No wonder you looked a bit unfamiliar..."

Sieg nodded slightly, but immediately came to his senses, his eyes widening slightly:

"The new guy?"

"What are you talking about? Where did our bandit group get a newbie? And what the hell is this 'Bandit King'?"

The tall mountain bandit scratched his head and asked in a somewhat puzzled tone:

"But Boss Sig, the bandit group has a lot of new members joining every day, right?"

After a moment of silence, Sieg suddenly had a bad feeling.

He quickened his pace and headed towards his own mountain village.

Along the way, they encountered more and more bandits.

"Boss."

"Hello, boss, I'm new here."

"Boss Sig, I'm new here too..."

Sig's forehead was sweating more and more.

I've never sweated this much even after just running 10 kilometers.

Ghostly, how many men do I actually have?

Sieg roared inwardly.

But after a short while, he abruptly stopped.

Before him appeared an extremely large and imposing figure.

The figure was six or seven meters tall and extremely conspicuous.

Sig, who is 1.9 meters tall, is just a little guy in front of him, not even as tall as his thigh.

"Boss, I'm new here too."

The burly man, six or seven meters tall and as tall as an iron tower, spoke.

Sig frowned.

Unlike the other new bandits, this burly man, who was six or seven meters tall and as strong as a bear, gave him a strange sense of familiarity.

But where did he get such a tall bandit?

If it truly existed, Sieg would have noticed it on his first day of his journey.

Confused, Sieg began to scrutinize the large man more closely.

Upon seeing this, he felt a chill run through him.

He finally recognized the other person...

Bartholomew Bear!

One of the Seven Warlords of the Sea, a Revolutionary Army officer!

Why is he here?

"Sorry to bother you, goodbye."

"Sig said quickly, while casually looking away and continuing along the mountain path."

He didn't want to know why the bear was there.

Wouldn't it be wonderful if everyone pretended nothing happened?

However, Sieg's nervous heartbeat betrayed him.

Bang bang bang bang...

The deep, muffled sound of the Emperor's engine echoed through the mountains and forests.

In an instant, the bear, who had just said goodbye to Sig and was about to leave, trembled slightly in its massive body, and then slowly turned its head back.

Sieg's forehead was sweating more and more. He continued to pretend he didn't feel the bear's gaze and turned his head to look in another direction.

"The sky is so blue, the grass is so green, and the air is so fresh..."

Sieg pretended nothing had happened and continued walking heavily.

But the next moment, Sieg's blood almost froze!
