I am the Bandit King of the East Sea.

They would lose face if they stood by and watched Gilman be defeated by a pirate with a bounty of fifty million.

"For Sig's sake, shouldn't we make a move too?"

One of the faction leaders hesitated for a moment, but was then stopped by someone.

“Wait… Gilman, he’s standing up.”

Amidst their slightly complicated gazes, Gilman struggled to his feet.

He had blood on several parts of his body, and his face had turned pale.

Pig walked silently to him, his massive body casting a shadow that almost completely enveloped Gilman.

A mocking smile appeared on his lips:

"You're Sig's subordinate? You're much weaker than I expected?"

"What? You actually dare to stand up? Aren't you afraid of dying?"

Chapter 206 The Arrogance of a Tyrant

"Sig's subordinates? Weak?"

Gilman's eyes widened slightly, and his heart pounded.

His inner fear surged.

But even stronger than the fear was the shame.

He is now not only Gilman, but also a trusted advisor personally entrusted by Sieg, representing Sieg's reputation.

He can be weak, but he cannot be shameful.

"fear death?"

Gilman tilted his head back, his expression gradually fading, a faint smile appearing at the corners of his mouth.

Even though he was looking up, it looked as if he was looking down at the much taller Pig.

This is an expression he has tried to imitate many times, but has never been able to capture its essence.

But at this moment, a subtle change has occurred.

"I trust Boss Sig's vision, and I also trust my own ambition..."

"so..."

Gilman murmured.

He stared blankly at Pig, who was inches away from him, his voice low and cold:

"Boss Sig is destined to usher in a new era of mountain bandits and become the king of the mountains!"

"I'm a member of the Mountain Bandit King's crew, why would I be afraid of that cowardly dog ​​raised by Doflamingo?"

His deep voice resonated throughout the venue.

At this moment, an invisible, powerful aura seemed to suddenly erupt from this burly man covered in blood!

A dozen or so steps away.

Most of Pirate Pig's dozens of subordinates rolled their eyes back, lost consciousness, and collapsed backward.

Just as Pig was about to finish off Gilman himself, he glanced back at his fallen subordinates and paused for a moment.

"What...what did you do?"

Pig didn't understand, but the expressions of the many leaders of the various forces who were secretly observing became solemn.

"Conqueror's Haki".

"Moreover, it is the first time that Conqueror's Haki has been awakened."

"Our guess was wrong; he is not a managerial talent at all."

The expressions on these people's faces were complicated.

This was arguably the weakest Conqueror's Haki they had ever seen. Not to mention Pig, who had 50 million men, some of Pig's subordinates were still standing.

This shows that Gilman's strength is indeed not strong.

But this is Conqueror's Haki, a talent that only one in a million people possesses!

Looking at the proudly standing Gilman, the shipping magnate Umit sighed:

"Gilman has some of the flair of Sieg!"

"Sieg has a keen eye for talent; he recognized that one of his ordinary bandits possessed exceptional abilities."

"That's why we deliberately left him on the Island of All Things, letting the seemingly weak Gilman take charge of the overall situation, all to train him!"

"However, I'm afraid even Sieg didn't expect that Gilman would awaken Conqueror's Haki so quickly."

While they were amazed, their gazes also held a complex mix of emotions.

"Conqueror's Haki is the quality of a king. Those who possess it are kings of the sea and it is almost impossible for them to be subordinate to others."

"But this Gilman, the words he uttered sounded like he truly meant it..."

Shipping King Umit narrowed his eyes slightly.

Sigurd's Conqueror's Haki is said to be so powerful that it even has its own sound effects.

Compared to Sieg, Gilman is indeed still very inexperienced.

"Did one king subdue another king?"

...........

While the Sea King and the others were discussing, Pig, who was standing in front of Gilman, roared and slammed his beast-like forepaws down at Gilman.

Before the attack even arrived, the howling claw wind sent shivers down Gilman's spine.

boom!

With a deafening roar, Pig's body crashed to the ground, leaving a trail of cracks like a spiderweb.

Suddenly, a woman's figure appeared on Pig's back.

Anne from Pleasure Street stepped on the unconscious Pig and looked at Gilman with a strange expression.

Gilman also breathed a sigh of relief, that feeling of surviving a disaster surged back, and his heart pounded.

Pig's body was so tall that it basically blocked Gilman's view, and Gilman did not notice the pirates who had been stunned by him at first.

He simply assumed that these people had also been knocked unconscious by Annie and her subordinates from Pleasure Street.

"Has this been considered a cover-up?"

"I am ultimately too weak, and can only stall for time with words."

"When will I be able to become a true powerhouse like the boss?"

After a moment of eye contact, Annie looked away and glanced around.

"What a lively scene! Since you're all here, won't you come and meet Lord Sig's important ministers?"

Anne was Stussy's subordinate, so she naturally heard her mention the complicated working relationship with Sieg.

On the surface, Pleasure Street belongs to Sig, and is another force under Sig's command, so naturally they cannot ignore Gilman.

This time, however, it seems to have arrived a little late.

Her words finally made the many forces that had been secretly observing unable to hold back any longer.

Those including Haiyun Wang emerged from the shadows one after another, nodding to Gilman.

"So many important figures are here? They've been watching from the sidelines all along?"

"Am I embarrassing myself?"

Gilman was slightly at a loss, accepting the greetings from these forces with a hint of bewilderment.

At that moment, he was like a husky that had wandered into a pack of wolves.

"Calm down! Don't lose face! If Boss Sig were here, what would he do?"

Gilman's mind was once again filled with that tall figure. He reached into his robes and grasped the strategic document of Kro, feeling a little more at ease.

His expression gradually calmed down, his gaze swept across the entire room, and a half-smile reappeared on his lips.

"Gentlemen, this is not the place to talk. Please give our Boss Sig some face and come to the hall for a chat."

Upon hearing this, the expressions of the shipping king and the others changed slightly.

Sig's face?

This made them recall the time at the auction.

Even the Celestial Dragons, whom they need to curry favor with, wouldn't dare to compete with Sieg at the auction.

"Sig is suspected to be a user of the Face Fruit... Although it wasn't Hig himself who said this, the Face Fruit is so strange, who knows..."

These bigwigs had different thoughts, but in the end they all followed Gilman into the building behind him.

Upon entering, the huge portrait of Sieg on the wall immediately catches the eye.

This scene left even the well-informed shipping magnates and others momentarily stunned.

"Gentlemen."

After receiving simple first aid, Gilman sat in the main seat and looked directly at everyone.

Above them, Sieg, in the portrait, seemed to be silently gazing at them.

"I have a strategy for the Island of Everything..."

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

Half an hour later.

The shipping magnate and others left their seats one by one, but their expressions were unusually serious and solemn.

"Sig's judgment is indeed excellent..."

"Whether it was proposed by Sieg or by Gilman, this man is not to be underestimated..."
