I am the Bandit King of the East Sea.

"Could the others also be members of the Revolutionary Army...?"

The hundred or so bandits fell silent. The appearance of the dragon completely stunned them!

This is a truly important figure, considered a major enemy by the World Government!

Then the problem is coming.

Why would Dragon, the leader of the Revolutionary Army, appear in the mountains of the Goa Kingdom?

The more astute bandits had already set their sights on the man!

Their leader, the bandit king Sig!

They had just heard with their own ears that Sieg invited Long and the others into the house to talk.

The implication behind this sent chills down the spines of many.

"Could our Sig Mountain Bandits be connected to, or even cooperating with, the Revolutionary Army?"

Many bandits immediately thought of the rapid expansion of the Sig Bandit Gang during this period.

It is said that expanding the bandit group was not Sig's goal, but merely a means to achieve it.

His true goal is to become the uncrowned king of the lawless zone and plunder the capital of the Goa Kingdom!

Upon hearing this news, the bandits, criminals, and others in the lawless zone scoffed at it and no one believed it.

The Kingdom of Goa implemented a system of isolation, with high walls separating the inside from the outside. Ordinary bandits couldn't even cross the high walls, let alone plunder the royal city.

The Sig Mountain bandits were powerful, and many of them only joined them out of pressure.

Few people believed that a mere band of mountain bandits could plunder the royal city.

But now, they suddenly realize that their long-held belief may have been wrong!

"Boss Sig is having a personal meeting with the leader of the Revolutionary Army!"

"I'm afraid Boss Sig's goal is not just as simple as looting the capital of the Goa Kingdom..."

"Perhaps they want to join forces with the revolutionary army to overthrow this country!"

Long and the others stopped in their tracks.

Sig turned around and silently looked at the hundred or so bandits in front of him, his heart skipping a beat.

The dragon's true identity has been revealed!

So, what about himself, who was preparing to have a private talk with Long?

In the world of One Piece, the World Government's greatest enemy is not the Four Emperors, but the Revolutionary Army!

Anyone associated with the Revolutionary Army will be taken seriously by the World Government and regarded as a serious criminal!

"What should I do? I can't even recognize all of these hundred-plus people... If someone among them leaks the news that I've been in contact with the Revolutionary Army, who knows if I'll be mistaken for a member of the Revolutionary Army!"

Sieg didn't think these newly joined subordinates could be very loyal.

It's quite an achievement that these unruly guys have been trained to shout slogans in unison these past few days.

Thinking about this, Sieg was absolutely at his wits' end.

He couldn't refuse Long's visit, but he also couldn't bear the thought of being seen as a criminal collaborating with the Revolutionary Army!

Chapter 17 A Conspiracy to Overthrow the World?

Sieg was now in a dilemma, and his heart sank.

Bang bang...

The sound of the Emperor's engine echoed directly through the mountains and forests, instantly creating a heavy sense of oppression that enveloped the entire area.

In an instant, everyone present changed their expressions.

At this moment, no one paid attention to whether the figures in cloaks were actually members of the Revolutionary Army.

Everyone's attention was drawn to that imposing figure.

Sieg's face was expressionless, showing neither joy nor anger.

He spoke slowly:

"If what happened today gets out, everyone will die."

A deep voice echoed throughout the area, and the blatant threats sent chills down the spines of all the bandits.

However, what they didn't know was that Sieg silently added to his mind:

"They will definitely die."

"Including myself, I'll probably be hunted to death by the World Government..."

Sig's expression wasn't exactly fierce, but rather blank, making it impossible to guess what was going on.

His voice wasn't loud, and there was no threat in his tone; it was as if he were simply stating a fact.

But this subtle sense of oppression left all the bandits present with blank minds, as if they had lost the ability to think.

It was as if an extremely dangerous beast had locked onto them all.

If they show even the slightest hesitation or the slightest unusual expression... they will surely face a thunderous blow from a ferocious beast!

Gudong.

Many people instinctively swallowed hard, and cold sweat soaked their backs at that moment.

"I'll die, I'll definitely die!"

"Leaking information? Don't you want to live a long life?"

"This oppressive feeling... I feel like if I even have the slightest thought of revealing information, it will definitely be seen through instantly, right?"

"Is this the majesty of the Mountain Bandit King, Sig? I heard that he once intimidated the seven million bounty bandit Gilman with just his imposing presence, preventing him from even making a move..."

"I initially thought the Sig Mountain Bandits were just trying to glorify themselves, but now it seems it's true..."

No one dared to disobey Sieg at this moment.

The entire venue was deathly silent.

After a long while, the sound of the Emperor's engine gradually subsided, and the terrifying sense of oppression also gradually disappeared.

Sieg didn't mean any threat; he was just stating a fact.

However, it seems that his new subordinates are quite obedient.

"very good."

Sieg nodded slightly, said nothing more, and went into the house.

All the bandits breathed a sigh of relief, watching Sig's departing figure with expressions that were a mixture of shock and fear.

This is their leader, the bandit king, Sig!

Many newly joined bandits initially disbelieved in the so-called title of Bandit King or the goal of plundering the royal city.

But after actually experiencing the Siegfried Emperor Engine and witnessing the personal visit of the Revolutionary Army leader, all his ulterior motives vanished.

Beside them, Long and the others' expressions changed repeatedly.

"Dragon, is this what you call Conqueror's Haki that has been cultivated to the point where it even has its own sound effects?"

"This guy is too dangerous... He actually used Conqueror's Haki to intimidate his own subordinates? That's going too far!"

Ivankov said in a low voice.

Long nodded slightly and said:

"Higurashi's mastery of Conqueror's Haki has reached an unbelievable level. He has not only cultivated it to the point where it produces its own sound effects, but he has also reached a level of exquisite detail..."

“You see, these bandits are of average strength, but Sig’s Conqueror’s Haki did not make them lose consciousness. Instead, they endured the powerful pressure while still conscious.”

At this point, Long sighed slightly:

"Perhaps he's still upset about our earlier probing; we shouldn't have been observing from the bushes..."

At this point, Long glanced at the bandits around him.

Sig's figure had disappeared from the house, but the fear from just now still lingered on the faces of these bandits.

"On the surface, Sieg is disciplining his own men, but isn't this also a warning to us?"

"This is a warning shot at us."

"Dragon said in a low voice."

After speaking in hushed tones for a while, Long and the others' expressions turned slightly somber. They then followed Sig into the cabin.

At this moment, the bandits outside the door still showed no sign of leaving, but instead looked into the wooden house with complicated expressions.

"Our boss, Sig, is inside having an equal dialogue with the world's most vicious criminals."

"Perhaps within this small wooden cabin, a world-shattering conspiracy will be born..."

The bandits speculated among themselves.

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

Inside the cabin, Sig and Dragon sat facing each other, while Tyrant Bear and Ivankov sat to the side.

Both Long and Sig were tall, fierce-looking men, and their faces were expressionless at the moment.

The atmosphere inside the wooden cabin was somewhat somber.

"It seems Sig isn't too happy about my sudden visit... Well, that's right, my actions were a bit too abrupt."

Long also sensed the heavy atmosphere and pondered to himself.

The initial show of force they had just received left them feeling somewhat heavy-hearted.

"Sigu is a dangerous person with a very deep mind. He is a ruthless person who reprimands his subordinates for using Conqueror's Haki."

Dragon was thinking about how to start the conversation in a way that would ease the tension and make Sig feel the goodwill of their revolutionary army.

What he didn't know was that Sieg was simply nervous.

Looking at the dragon's expressionless, ferocious face in front of him, Sieg's breath hitched slightly.
