I am the Bandit King of the East Sea.

Ability: Li Jing, the number one swordsman of the Shang Dynasty, achieved the pinnacle of swordsmanship among mortals in the world where the original character lived.

One hundred percent chance of being caught bare-handed by a bladed weapon — when using any bladed weapon such as a knife or sword, or using Li Jing's swordsmanship techniques, one will be caught bare-handed by a bladed weapon.

Yes, he can. He's the number one swordsman of the Shang Dynasty, but he can't actually kill people.

The number of sand sculptures and roof tiles has increased again.

After equipping the cards, Sieg returned to the outside world, and his first action was to draw the sword at his waist, examine it carefully, and unconsciously let out a soft sigh.

Unexpectedly, that crazy battle with Axe King Monka has become a swan song!

Unless the character card is removed, Sieg will probably never be able to have a truly exhilarating sword duel with anyone again!

Sig was a little frustrated. He thought he had drawn a powerful card, but it turned out to be another idiot.

He couldn't hold back any longer and threw the sword in his hand forcefully into the sea!

"Sigboy, what are you doing?" Ivankov asked curiously.

Before Sieg could answer, a huge black shadow emerged from the sea.

This was a massive sea monster shaped like a crocodile, roughly a third the size of this large pirate ship, its scarlet eyes already locked onto Sig on the deck.

On the sea monster's head, the dagger that Sieg had just thrown down was stuck crookedly.

"King of the Nearshore!"

"This is the overlord of the seas surrounding the Goa Kingdom!" someone exclaimed.

Chapter 54 Swordsmanship at the Pinnacle of Mortal Skill

King of the Near Seas!

Sig's heart skipped a beat; this was Sig's lifelong enemy, the bandit king!

In the original story, the Lord of the Coast not only swallowed Shanks' arm, but also ate Higuma himself!

However, at this moment, facing this enormous creature, Sieg felt surprisingly at ease.

His gaze fell on the body of the near-sea king that was emerging from the sea.

The king of the near seas is a large marine mammal, estimated to be tens or even hundreds of meters long. Only its head is shaped like a giant crocodile, while the rest of its body is more like a snake, and it has no limbs.

Sieg's lips curled up slightly; this time, his smile was calm and composed.

Since arriving in this world, he has always appeared calm and collected on the surface, but inside he's panicking like crazy.

But this time, facing the Sea King who could easily kill the original Sigur, Sigur was quite calm.

"You beast without even hands is not worthy to be my enemy, Sig!"

Li Jing's abilities as the number one swordsman of the Shang Dynasty were only fully revealed when facing a sea king without hands.

Sig's gaze fell on the waist of a bandit beside him, and he drew a longsword from the bandit's waist.

The design of this sword is similar to that of ancient Chinese swords, and differs from the katana, which is the most common type of sword in the world.

In the world of One Piece, there are all sorts of bizarre weapon types. The bandits under Higuma's command don't have a unified weapon, so it's quite normal for some of them to possess a longsword like this.

Upon receiving the longsword, Sieg's expression immediately turned strange. He flicked the sword lightly, channeling his power into its tip, and the three-foot-long blade trembled slightly.

There's a saying that weapons are an extension of the arm.

But for Sieg now, having this sword in his hand feels like having his own arm or finger.

As I pondered, the light dimmed, and the massive body of the near-sea king cast a shadow, covering half of the bow deck.

The enormous creature lunged at Sieg on the bow deck, its gaping maw revealing serrated teeth that sent chills down one's spine.

That bite could probably nibble off half of the bow deck.

Just before the King of the Near Seas was about to bite down, Sieg still had time to glance at the longsword in his hand, and a slight smile appeared on his lips.

With a light tap of his toes, he leaped into the air and simultaneously slashed out with his sword, the blade flashing brightly.

Sig's figure had already appeared on the head of the Sea King, and at his feet, a line of blood appeared on the Sea King's head, and the Sea King's body was split in two.

With a single sword strike.

The sea king, which had been so ferocious just moments before, was now lifeless, and its two massive halves began to fall downwards.

However, Sieg's actions did not stop.

There was a hint of excitement in his expression, like a child who had just received a new toy. Stepping on the head of the near-sea king, one sword light after another quickly lit up.

When the sword in his hand slashed out, it encountered no resistance whatsoever. Wherever the sword light touched, flesh and blood were cleaved in two, so smoothly that they flew up.

Just before the King of the Near Seas' corpse fell into the sea, Sig leaped up again and returned to the deck.

His right hand gripped a three-foot-long sword, while his left hand retrieved the dagger that Sieg had thrown earlier.

next moment.

The king of the near seas' enormous body fell into the sea... no, there was no enormous body left.

This enormous sea beast, which was tens or even hundreds of meters long, was cleaved into dozens of pieces by Sieg in the blink of an eye, with pieces of its remains falling onto the sea like raindrops.

The entire room fell silent.

Then they all looked at Sieg, who had sheathed his sword, with shocked expressions.

Adhering to the principle that "a real man never looks back after killing someone and slowly sheathes his sword because it looks cooler," Sieg slowly sheathed his sword with his back to the remains of the near-sea king falling into the sea like rain.

His face always wore an expressionless look, his eyes half-closed, as if he were lost in thought, as if nothing had happened.

A true movie star is always in the movie.

All the bandits, refugees, and revolutionaries looked at Sig with awe.

"Finally, we're seeing Boss Sig make a move!"

"So strong..."

Previously, when Higuma used the Purgatory Warrior's Blazing Wave Cannon to knock down a Celestial Dragon from a great distance, it was far too advanced for them to comprehend.

Now, Sieg, with the near-sea king that he could tell was dangerous at a glance, finally revealed a tiny bit of his swordsmanship!

And at this time.

A loud thud, like a heavy object hitting the ground, echoed behind everyone on the deck, and they all turned around to look.

Having just woken up from his coma and left the cabin, the naval recruit Monka was looking at Sieg with an expression of utter disbelief.

His axe lay silently at his feet.

Morgan found himself on a pirate ship, preparing to ambush Sigurd...

"You...you actually said that we had a fierce and exhilarating battle back then, and that I was a rare and formidable enemy!"

Monka's face flushed red, and he stumbled as he pointed at Sieg:

"Colonel Calvin was right after all; you were humiliating our navy back then!"

Having just witnessed Sieg slay the King of the Near Sea, the honest man was deeply terrified.

Sieg glanced at Monka and said sincerely:

"I didn't lie to you."

"To be honest, that crazy battle with you back then benefited me a lot, which is why my swordsmanship has improved by leaps and bounds to a new level."

Monka: "........"

Ivankov and several other revolutionary soldiers who had witnessed the battle wiped away their sweat.

They also recalled that unbearable duel between Sieg and Monka.

As expected! Sieg's acting skills far exceeded their expectations! It's now confirmed that he was deliberately humiliating the Navy!

"Mr. Sieg is indeed a dangerous person. His skill in making up lies with a straight face is truly masterful!"

"Our revolutionary army must never make enemies of such a person..."

A fine layer of sweat appeared on Ivankov's large face.

He was far more impactful than the other revolutionary soldiers.

The layman looks at the excitement and the insider looks at the doorway.

Only a powerful figure like Ivankov, who has roamed the Grand Line for many years and is well-versed in the world, could glean a glimpse of Sieg's true strength from his strikes.

He was standing very close and could see very clearly.

Sieg's sword sliced ​​through the body of the Sea King almost effortlessly, like a master butcher dissecting an ox.

For true powerhouses on the high seas, this is not difficult; great effort can produce miracles.

Surprisingly, Sieg's sword strikes weren't particularly fast, nor was the force he used very strong; it was roughly equivalent to the level of a wanted criminal with a bounty of several million.

He killed the King of the Near Sea entirely with his amazing swordsmanship, using very ordinary strength and speed!

This is blatant showing off!

Sieg must have sensed the near-sea king lurking beneath the surface, so he threw out his sword to attract the near-sea king's attack, wanting to show off his swordsmanship in front of them!

Chapter 55 CP0 Observing in Secret

While marveling at his work, Ivankov's gaze fell on Sig's longsword.

This longsword is nothing special; in fact, it could be described as crudely made.

This was just an ordinary longsword that Sieg had casually picked up from one of his bandits.

However, this very sword shone brightly in Sieg's hands, easily slicing the King of the Near Sea into dozens of pieces.

Looking at Sig, Ivankov felt as if a new world had opened up in his heart.

In the world of One Piece, speed equals strength, size equals power, and the combination of power and speed equals might.

That's certainly not wrong.

But Sig gave Ivankov a real demonstration of what true skill is.
