I am the Bandit King of the East Sea.

The auction has ended.

After obtaining the treasure map, the Celestial Dragon Charmaco Saint stood up with his subordinates, preparing to leave.

He felt completely unsafe being in the same room with Sieg.

"Saint Charmaco..."

In the VIP section at the front, several people crowded around, forcing smiles on their faces.

This is not the first time that the Celestial Dragons have come to the Island of All Things.

Celestial Dragons like Charmaco Saint, who are known for their generosity, are highly sought after by the bigwigs of the Island of All Things, including Umit, the King of Shipping.

Seeing the crowd approaching, Saint Charles frowned, instinctively about to reprimand them.

Now all he wanted was to leave this island of everything immediately, as far away from Sig as possible.

Just thinking about Sieg's face makes Charmaco's heart race.

However, the man in the black suit next to him promptly informed him of the identities of these people.

"The power behind Wanwu Island? They must have a lot of subordinates, right?"

For once, Saint Charles paused to think for two seconds before changing his words:

"Call your men and escort me away!"

Having many people around gives him a slight sense of security.

The implication of these words made all the VIPs in the front row turn around and glance in Sieg's direction.

"Are the Celestial Dragons this wary of Sigurd?"

"He really is another dangerous figure like Doflamingo; even the Celestial Dragons wouldn't dare to provoke him..."

Despite their感慨 (feelings of deep emotion), these people moved with remarkable speed.

We can't ignore the Celestial Dragons' face.

This treasure map auction was of a very high standard, featuring both treasure and treasure maps, and also the presence of Celestial Dragons.

In order to deter any potential hotheads, these forces dispatched a large number of elites to gather inside and outside the auction house to maintain order.

These bigwigs issued one order after another, and soon a huge crowd gathered outside the auction house.

Then, the dark mass of people, surrounding the Celestial Dragon Charles Marco Saint at the very center, walked out of the auction house and headed towards the distant port.

The spectacle of hundreds or even thousands of people crowding around as they departed left Sieg with a deep sense of awe.

"Isn't this Celestial Dragon the real user of the Face Fruit?"

The fake Face Fruit user, Higuma, planned everything in advance, contacted various forces before the auction, and used the remaining power he had intimidated the Celestial Dragons to buy a Silence Fruit for 200 million.

Charmaco Saint, the true user of the "Face Fruit" ability, forcibly bought the treasure map, and no one dared to object. In the end, various forces even fawned over him.

However, Sieg didn't lose out either.

All he gave up was a fake treasure map, but he received over 90 million Berries, plus a Silence Fruit.

I glanced at the system panel.

"Task: A Small Goal"

Mission objective: Earn 1 million Berries. (99%)

Task Reward: One chance to draw a random card.

The only downside was that the small goal wasn't achieved; it was just a tiny bit short...

"It's time for me to leave too."

After taking stock of the spoils, Sieg stood up and prepared to leave with his subordinates.

But he quickly stopped and turned around, looking at the empty auction hall.

A sense of foreboding crossed Sieg's mind.

Charmaco took many people with him.

This means that the surrounding streets are just an empty shell at this moment. The underground elites who maintain order in the surrounding streets are basically with the Sea King and others, escorting the Celestial Dragon Charl Marco Saint away.

Moreover... all the pirates who attended the auction in the back row have now left; there isn't a single one left.

We need to get back to Pleasure Street quickly.

Sig's expression darkened slightly, and he immediately led his men out through the side door, preparing to return to Pleasure Street.

However, as soon as they turned the corner, the bandits stopped in their tracks.

In front of them, dozens or even hundreds of people formed a human wall, standing there with ill intentions.

“Boss Sig, he’s the one who attended the auction just now.”

Kro pushed up his glasses and whispered a reminder.

He had been acting as a shill in the back row and recognized these people immediately.

"Sig. You're treating us like fools!"

A burly man stepped forward in front of the crowd and said fiercely:

"You deliberately lured the Celestial Dragons and sold the treasure map back to them."

"And what about us? This auction is a complete farce!"

"Why waste your breath on Sig?" Someone nearby asked, his gaze slightly heated, having already drawn a knife from his waist.

"The treasure map is already in the hands of the Celestial Dragons, but isn't there still Sigurd around?"

"Hey, tell us the location of the treasure! As long as we find it before the Celestial Dragons, everything will be fine!"

Sig stared silently at the large group of people in front of him, his heart sinking.

The reason he chose the island's largest auction house was to drag all the island's various factions into the fray, ensuring that no one would dare to cause trouble at the auction.

Who would have thought that most of these people would be led away by the Celestial Dragons...

"You dare not oppose the Celestial Dragons, yet you dare to provoke me?"

Sieg nodded slightly and praised:

"You have a good eye..."

These words made the pirates' faces darken.

Regardless, Sieg's strength is indeed not to be underestimated.

However, before they could even make a move, Sieg's next action stunned them once again.

Sieg reached into his robes, pulled out a yellowed map, and unfolded it...

This is yet another treasure map!

The pattern on it is exactly the same as the one in the auction house!

"You just want my treasure map, right? If you want it, I can sell it to you."

Sieg coughed lightly, and then the bald man next to him pulled out a megaphone from somewhere and shouted loudly:

"Anotherpiece Treasure Map Clearance Sale!"

"The treasure map that the Celestial Dragons spent 300 million to frantically buy is now 50% off, only 150 million, and you can get it for that price!"

"This is the last backup treasure map, a chance to obtain the Great Treasure. Buying it is a sure win!"

The sudden announcement over the loudspeaker completely baffled the pirates.

"this....."

Why is there a second treasure map?

"Wait... how many treasure maps do you have?"

“This is the last spare treasure map I have.” Sieg’s face was full of sincerity.

"There are two in total, one as a spare. I drew them more than 20 years ago when I buried Anotherpiece. I don't have any others on hand."

"I only drew two treasure maps back then, because if there are too many treasure maps, it becomes meaningless."

Upon hearing this, everyone turned their attention to the treasure map in Sieg's hand.

Indeed, both treasure maps, one in front of the other, were made of yellowed paper and even slightly damaged, giving them an old and worn feel.

Chapter 178 Doflamingo

On the rooftop of a high-rise building, a few kilometers away from the auction.

A sniper rifle was propped up on the railing, pointing towards the auction house.

What's strange is that the sniper rifle wasn't being held in someone's hand, but was directly attached to a girl's arm, as if it were part of her body.

BABY-5 was a twelve-year-old girl at the time, dressed in a purple-red maid outfit, with a yellow bow in her long black hair, looking well-behaved and cute.

As a user of the Weapon-Weapon Fruit, she can transform any part of her body into a weapon, including cold weapons such as swords and blades, as well as firearms such as cannons and pistols.

"what?"

The girl looking at Sig through the sniper rifle scope suddenly let out a soft exclamation.

"Young Master, Sieg has produced a treasure map..."

Behind her, Doflamingo sat on a deck chair, lazily basking in the sun, his smile somewhat sinister.

The announcement for the treasure map auction was very brief, lasting only three days.

Logically, only people from the surrounding seas should have time to arrive at this Island of All Things.

But it's quite a coincidence.

Before the auction announcement was released, Doflamingo received an "invitation" from Sigurd via Den Den Mushi.

"A second treasure map?"

Doflamingo's smile widened even further.

"Fufufufufu, this Sig is really interesting."
