I am the Bandit King of the East Sea.

There was very little light in the sewer, and only a large, blurry black shadow could be seen reflected on the murky water.

But Teach could see it clearly.

"Does this fruit also have the ability of night vision?"

Teach felt a slight sense of relief. This was much better than the terrible ability he had expected.

For some reason, as soon as he entered the sewer, he felt a sense of security, like returning home.

"Is it because I escaped the pursuit of the Warring States period? Is it because I subconsciously feel at ease?"

Without giving it much thought, Teach stared intently at his reflection in the water, trying to figure out his abilities.

In his reflection, he appeared to be clad in jet-black armor, which gleamed faintly, making him look as imposing as a black-armored warrior.

Reaching down to touch his back, Teach felt a thick, black shell grow on his body, instantly giving him a sense of security.

"It doesn't seem that bad?"

"This seems to be some kind of beetle-type Zoan-type Devil Fruit?"

Teach muttered to herself, trying to comfort herself.

He hid in the sewers for a long time.

Only after all the noise above subsided did they carefully open the manhole cover and return to the surface.

Looking around, there was no longer any movement from the navy.

While Teach breathed a slight sigh of relief, he immediately set off at full speed.

Soon, he arrived at the small boat that he had prepared beforehand.

However, when he saw his own reflection clearly from the sea, he was slightly stunned.

"Scarab? It really is a Zoan-type Devil Fruit."

"This is not something Sieg can do at all!"

Tichy's emotions were somewhat complicated.

Regardless, this Devil Fruit did indeed take up one of his fruit slots.

"Although I ate a Zoan-type Devil Fruit, at least I ate an Angel Fruit!"

"In other words, I got a Zoan-type Devil Fruit for free. Although it wasn't as good as I expected, it's not a bad deal..."

Blackbeard comforted himself.

Chapter 260 I'm the Fake Bandit King

When the Sabaody Archipelago was embroiled in turmoil because of an Angel Fruit.

Meanwhile, Sig arrived at their destination, Mousse Island.

Mousse Island is famous for its mousse cakes and pastries, which is why it was chosen by Big Mom, one of the four great emperors, to become one of her protected islands.

At the same time, this is also the closest island to the Devil's Triangle.

"We'll stop briefly on Mousse Island."

"Once we've resupplyed, we'll immediately enter the Devil's Triangle area. We can't delay any longer."

Sieg felt a sense of urgency.

The Shichibukai Gecko Moria entered the Devil's Triangle in this year aboard Thriller Bark.

Whether we will encounter Moria in that sea at this time is still unknown.

Entering earlier increases the chances of avoiding Moria.

Thinking of this, Sieg glanced back at Crocdale, who was still smoking a cigar beside him.

Speaking of which, Crocodile, who is also a member of the Seven Warlords of the Sea, does have many similarities with Gecko Moria.

Both sides were once renowned, but after being defeated by the Four Emperors, they turned to other forces.

Crocodile is searching for ancient weapons in order to build an ideal world.

After Moria was defeated by Kaido in Wano Country, he claimed that living comrades were unreliable, so he wanted to form an army of zombies.

In their previous lives, these two were the first Shichibukai to appear, and were considered by many to be the weakest of the Shichibukai.

But after experiencing Crocodile's methods firsthand, Sieg could no longer underestimate Moria.

"Perhaps, Moria now isn't the fat, lazy otaku he'll become, but still the great pirate who once rivaled Kaido... He's dangerous!"

A sense of unease rose in Sieg's mind.

He had no intention of lingering on Mousse Island and was preparing to enter the Devil's Triangle as quickly as possible.

But there were always things that were beyond his control.

While the ironclad ship was docked in the port, Sieg received another call from Morgans.

"Sigurd, you really pulled a big stunt this time, keeping it a secret from me for so long..."

Morgans' voice was filled with excitement.

"Selling Angel Fruits is one thing, but to actually show up in the Sabaody Archipelago in person..."

"Haha, even the great general Sengoku couldn't stop you?"

The Angel-Angel Fruit, Higuma himself appears on the Sabaody Archipelago, and Admiral Sengoku is mobilized...

This is undoubtedly big news.

Morgans rubbed his hands together excitedly on the other end of the phone, waiting for Sieg's response.

The news he received was that Sieg was suspected to have been killed in battle by General Sengoku.

Through the Den Den Mushi, Morgans discovered that Sieg was still alive and well!

This can only prove one thing!

Sig managed to deceive Sengoku and quietly escape from the Sabaody Archipelago!

However, Sieg on the other end of the phone fell into a long silence.

what happened?

what happened?

I, Sig, appeared in the Sabaody Archipelago and even fought against Admiral Sengoku?

Sieg was completely baffled.

"Morgans, where did you get this fake news from?"

“I’ve been sailing at sea all this time, and I only recently arrived at Mousse Island. How could I possibly be in the Sabaody Archipelago so soon?”

Sieg rejected it outright.

Morgans paused for a moment on the phone.

"Sig, as you said before, we've been working together for quite some time now, so you don't need to pretend in front of me, right?"

"This news is probably spreading throughout the underworld by now, and even the Navy will have a hard time controlling its spread."

Morgans laughed.

The sudden deployment of General Sengoku to the Sabaody Archipelago caused quite a stir, which was difficult to conceal.

Moreover, the Sabaody Archipelago is quite unique.

Although adjacent to the Marine Headquarters, the Sabaody Archipelago contains numerous lawless islands where various factions are deeply intertwined, making it the domain of underworld forces.

These lawless zones are complex and intertwined, and are usually not under the control of the Navy. It's quite normal for information to leak out in the underworld.

This time, no matter how much Sieg denied it, Morgans showed no sign of believing him.

Sieg frowned and said nothing more. Instead, he followed Morgans's words and coaxed out all the rumors he had heard.

"I, Sieg, appeared at the auction house to demonstrate my dominance, exuding overwhelming power, and even fought against the great general Sengoku?"

Then, he was completely dumbfounded.

I initially thought it was a lie that had come true, that the Angel Fruit had become a reality and was being trafficked... but now it seems it was actually...

"Someone is imitating my face?"

Sig touched his face, completely dumbfounded.

To be precise, it wasn't just imitating his face, it even imitated Sieg's abilities...

Wait... no!

"As the user of the Roasted Gluten Fruit, am I still able to use the power of the Flame-Flame Fruit?"

"Is there such a setting?"

"Could it be that I'm the fake Sig?"

Sieg almost thought he was the fake one.

Whether it's the Roasted Gluten Fruit, the Flame-Flame Fruit, or even fighting Admiral Sengoku, Higuma simply can't do it.

Especially after hearing the fake Sieg's domineering words and actions at the auction, Sieg even felt a tiny bit of longing in his heart...

But what left Sig speechless the most was that pirate named Teach.

Teach and Sengoku's escape was also a grand affair, which reached the ears of some people who were secretly watching.

In particular, Teach's declarations left a deep impression on many people.

Teach's name has already spread throughout the underworld.

It's probably only a matter of time before the navy puts a hefty bounty on his head.

"Teach, he ate the Angel Fruit?"

Sieg's thoughts suddenly became incredibly complex.

Now, he truly had no way of determining whether the Angel Fruit was real or fake.

What would happen if the Angel Fruit were real?
