I am the Bandit King of the East Sea.

The only difference is their size.

Of course, Barret herself is very powerful, and even if she charged in as a submarine giant, it would not be difficult for her to destroy a warship.

However... it will definitely not be as easy as it is now; we will inevitably face a lot of gunfire.

Haki can be depleted. Barrett has a massive amount of Armament Haki, but she still has to use it sparingly when facing an army the size of the Buster Call.

"Frozen Moment!"

Aokiji arrived on his moon-step, pointing a finger and a line of ice rapidly spreading from his fingertip, freezing the sinking warship completely.

The ice spread rapidly across the sea, quickly expanding along the hull of the warship and soon covering a small portion of the battlefield, freezing even the Barrett submarine that hadn't managed to leave.

Looking around, Barrett's submarine was almost completely surrounded by thick ice, and even the submarine's hull was frozen, leaving no room for retreat.

"Barrett, you are so foolish to challenge the Buster Call all by yourself."

Admiral Akainu let out a low growl, and thick, scorching magma shot backward from behind him as he swept across the air.

"You, alone and surrounded, are nothing but a sitting duck!"

But Barrett, instead of getting angry, laughed:

"Your navy is the fool!"

"Because I have gained new power from Sig!"

Barrett once again unleashed the power of the Fusion Fruit, and the submarine trapped in the thick ice rapidly transformed, its lower body becoming tracks, and two large mechanical arms extending from its sides.

"Tankman form!"

At this moment, Barrett resembled a human tank, her treads pressing directly onto the ice, her mechanical arms wreathed in Armament Haki, instantly turning black and purple, as she slammed into the charging Admiral Akainu.

"A massive fireball!"

The expanding lava fist clashed with Barrett's fists, creating a violent shockwave that splashed molten lava at their feet and shattered layers of ice.

But just as their fists were locked in a stalemate, Barrett grinned again.

Tankman's shoulder propelled a cannon upwards, aiming at Akainu who was right in front of him!

boom!

Glaciers are breaking apart, and smoke is billowing everywhere!

.......

Seeing Barret break through the encirclement alone, destroy a warship in an instant with her own strength, and besieged by a large number of marines including Akainu, Sig was very moved and even wanted to watch the drama unfold a little longer.

However, the Navy clearly had no intention of letting Sig go, and several warships had already turned around and were closing in on the ironclad pirate ship where Sig was.

A giant general named Lonz, wearing a T-shaped metal mask, leaped up and landed heavily in the shallow sea, where the water only reached about his ankles.

"Sauro! You traitor! You have betrayed the justice of our navy!"

Saul grabbed a broken piece of the ship from the ground with his bare hands, strode forward, and slammed it head-on at the giant admiral, Lonzi, without the slightest fear.

"The Navy has strayed from the path of justice! This is not true justice!"

"The barbarians of Elbaf..."

The two giants were of similar size and strength, and each time their weapons clashed, they produced a thunderous roar.

In this world, there exists more than one nation of giants, and Elbaf is the most famous and powerful of them all.

However, Sauro was not from Elbaf, nor did he have a good relationship with the Giants Lieutenant General Ronz.

On the other side, several other lieutenant generals on the warships were also on high alert, ready to confront Sieg.

Aokiji raised his right arm, and a chilling aura condensed on his arm, quickly forming a large bird made of ice.

"Ice Cube - Tyrannosaurus Beak!"

With a flap of its wings, the ice bird flew towards Sig, spreading cold air wherever it went, and a layer of ice quickly and rapidly condensed on the sea surface.

"An ice bird?" Crocdale glanced at the ice bird, then at the rapidly freezing sea, and took a puff of her cigar.

"It seems this time, it's your home turf."

The Sand-Sand Fruit's ability allows it to absorb moisture from the surrounding environment, while the Ice-Ice Fruit's ability allows it to quickly freeze moisture in the air into ice.

Although their abilities are not exactly diametrically opposed, their antagonism is quite obvious.

Crocodile followed Aokiji's example, extending her right arm. Yellow sand gathered and quickly formed a giant eagle.

"Silly!"

The giant eagle formed from the yellow sand also took flight, its wings flapping and sending yellow sand flying everywhere, with grains of sand slapping against the frozen sea surface.

The ice bird collided with the sand sculpture, and amidst the violent collision, they both turned into scattered sand and broken ice.

"A user of the Sand-Sand Fruit... what a nuisance," Aokiji muttered.

On the other side, more than a dozen cannonballs flew densely through the air, their target being Sig's armored pirate ship.

Vice Admiral Momonga gripped his longsword and leaped into the air using Moonwalk, but on Sig's ship, another figure also leaped up using Moonwalk, pointing a finger at the blade in Vice Admiral Momonga's hand.

"Finger Pistol - Break!"

With a crisp "ding".

The longsword in the flying squirrel's hand bent, trembled violently, and almost slipped from its grasp.

The flying squirrel squinted at Stusi in front of it, its brows furrowing slightly.

“I heard that Sig took a CP0 member from the Holy Land of Mary Geoise…” the flying squirrel whispered.

Stussy did not answer; in response, another finger pistol pierced through the air.

The flying squirrel could only frown and parry with its sword, but doubts arose in its heart.

Both the Navy and CP0 are agencies under the World Government, and even a Vice Admiral at headquarters cannot dictate to members of CP0, the highest intelligence agency.

However... these CP0 spies and agents often switch sides repeatedly, which made Squirrel wonder whether the Stussy in front of him was friend or foe.

On the other side, Lieutenant General Doberman gazed at Sieg on the deck, a dangerous smile unconsciously creeping onto his lips.

“Sig, I want you to experience what it’s like to be ambushed and stabbed in the back…” Doberman whispered.

Back then, Lieutenant General Doberman was the first lieutenant general to be forcefully stabbed in the back by Sieg, suffering severe local damage, but later miraculously survived the shipwreck.

However, although he survived, his reputation was ruined.

A dignified Vice Admiral of the Headquarters, known for his belligerent and ruthless fighting dog, has lost all face within the Navy!

With a swift movement, he used Moonwalk to skim along the sea surface, his figure flashing continuously amidst the shouts and cannon fire around him, taking advantage of the cover provided by the ships.

.......

Bang! Boom!

Amidst the dense roar of cannons, several buildings on the island of Water Seven behind Sieg had already been destroyed by the artillery fire, collapsing, engulfed in flames, and billowing black smoke.

This was only caused by a small amount of artillery fire, since the main firepower of the Buster Call fleet was mainly drawn to Barrett's side and Sig's side.

Sig glanced behind him, and his heart skipped a beat.

The high-explosive shells used by the Buster Call warships are also different from those of ordinary warships, obviously possessing greater destructive power, making them war weapons born for destruction.

shhhhhh!

Sig held the half-body longsword that BABY5 had transformed into in one hand, and saw a dense barrage of cannonballs flying in from all around.

"If I were to get hit by a cannon, I'd die..." Sig felt a chill in his heart.

After Stussy, Crocdale, and the others made their moves, there was no one left around Sieg to block the attacks for him.

"These shells don't have arms, right?"

As Sigeti watched the dense barrage of shells hurtling through the air, a thought suddenly struck him.

With Li Jing's swordsmanship at the peak of mortal level, dealing with these mere cannonballs would naturally only take one sword strike, without any suspense.

Therefore, Sieg remained completely calm.

His gaze was fixed on the incoming cannonball, and he was holding onto Viben's leg with one hand, about to strike with his sword.

And just at this moment.

"shave!"

Lieutenant General Doberman's figure flickered and appeared behind Sieg!

Under the cover of artillery fire, he finally appeared behind Sieg when Sieg's attention was diverted!

Doberman's face lit up with ecstasy. He raised his longsword, ready to plunge it into Sieg's rear end!

This time, he was determined to avenge his previous defeat and leave Sieg with a lesson he would never forget!

At that instant, Stussy and Crocdale, who were engaged in battle, seemed to sense something and glanced to the side, their expressions changing slightly.

Crocdale frowned slightly, a sense of unease creeping into her heart.

She clearly disliked being treated that way by Sieg, but as a vice admiral was about to take revenge on him, an even stronger sense of revulsion arose within her...

In that instant.

Only Sieg's expression remained calm.

He remained calm, his expression showing no sign of panic, always maintaining that unwavering composure even in the face of a collapsing mountain, seemingly completely disregarding the sudden attack from behind by Doberman.

He gripped Viben's calf tightly and swung his longsword down at the dense barrage of cannonballs in front of him!

With a clang!

Doberman's eyes suddenly widened, and just as he was about to strike Sieg, the longsword in his hand inexplicably slipped out of his grasp.

Then, his body suddenly went out of control, and he moved his legs and ran directly in front of Sieg. He then knelt down and raised his hands to catch the long sword that was slashing down!

"W-what happened?"

"I can't move my body? What am I doing?"

Dogman instinctively tried to struggle, straining his hands to make the blade he was using tremble.

But in the next instant!

The high-explosive bombs from the Buster Call that hadn't hit Siegfried flew through the air and slammed into Doberman's back!
