I am the Bandit King of the East Sea.

After that sword strike, he was completely unable to move his own body!

It's definitely strong control! It even controls itself!

Sieg's illusions were shattered.

He was even thinking of wielding a sword in his right hand and a pistol in his left, calling out the names of the four emperors' generals one by one, and shooting them in a line.

"This ridiculous system is messing with me again! I thought I could finally switch to an invincible build!"

Sig roared inwardly.

He could raise the hand holding the sword, but... Sig didn't dare to move at all!

If the ability to catch a blade bare-handed is removed, who can deal with CP0?

Given the terrifying speed CP0 just displayed, they'd probably be killed in an instant, right?

Just as Sieg was caught in a dilemma, he suddenly discovered... something even worse had happened.

The white-masked man, kneeling on the ground, was trembling slightly as he struggled desperately.

Sig could sense a tremendous force emanating from the sword in his hand. If he hadn't been immobilized, he probably would have been knocked over!

"Wait, it can still struggle!"

Sieg suddenly remembered that Li Jing's ability to catch a blade barehanded wasn't invincible; he had once had his sword shattered by Nezha...

Sig was startled.

At that moment, he heard a low voice coming from under the white mask.

"Armament Haki Hardening".

The white-masked man who caught the sword was still wearing white gloves, with no skin exposed. However, Sieg could feel the strength of the struggle, which suddenly increased significantly!

The longsword in his hand had begun to tremble slightly.

Sig could sense that the other person's struggle was nearing the point of breaking free.

They might not be able to hold out for long before the enemy forcibly breaks free!

"Could it be that the compatibility is too low, and he is not yet Li Jing's complete form, so he can only control him temporarily when dealing with a powerful figure like CP0?"

Sig began to panic.

The Emperor Engine roared again, but the power emanating from the sword, after a brief respite, intensified once more.

"Wait, is he struggling even more because he thinks I'm going to attack him?"

In his anxiety, out of the corner of his eye, Sieg caught sight of a large face approaching from the side.

"Sigboy, what are you planning to do with CP0?"

Sig's eyes lit up immediately.

He quickly came up with an explanation, cleared his throat, and adopted a nonchalant expression:

"We were so grateful for the help from your revolutionary army before, both for delivering intelligence and for helping us escape from the burning terminal station..."

"Consider this person a return gift to your revolutionary army."

Sig stood calmly in place, with CP0 kneeling beneath his sword, and said this.

Chapter 58 Do You Crave Power?

"Consider this person a return gift to your revolutionary army."

Upon hearing this, Ivankov and the other revolutionary soldiers immediately paled.

CP0!

This is the world government's top secret intelligence agency, and the secrets it involves are simply too numerous to count.

If the Revolutionary Army were to accept this prisoner, it would likely incur the wrath of the World Government and result in suppression.

This was a complete hot potato, and Ivankov simply...couldn't refuse!

He immediately pulled out a Den Den Mushi from his pocket, and after a quick discussion with Ryu, they reached an agreement in the blink of an eye.

For the Revolutionary Army, whose goal is to overthrow the World Government, being able to pry the secrets of the World Government out of CP0 would be like adding wings to a tiger!

"Sigboy, thank you for your generous gift."

Having received the dragon's permission, Ivankov's face beamed with joy, and he quickly expressed his gratitude.

"What are you still standing there for? I've already subdued CP0. Do you expect me to pack him up like a gift and deliver him to your Revolutionary Army headquarters?"

Sig was getting impatient and urged him on.

Upon hearing this, Ivankov nodded quickly, then walked to the white-masked man's side and raised his hands.

"Sleep hormones!"

Beneath the purple gloves, sharp nails instantly sprouted from all ten fingers, stabbing directly into the white-masked man's body.

Click.

Ivankov withdrew his hands in surprise. His attempt to stab the white-masked man had not only failed, but his fingernails had also cracked.

Ivankov, the Queen of the Okama, is a user of the Hormone-Hormone Fruit. In addition to his unscientific attack methods, such as throwing flirtatious glances and creating explosive winds, he also has techniques for developing his fruit's power.

Ivankov can inject various types of hormones directly into the enemy's body through his fingernails, directly altering the internal environment of the human body.

Healing, stimulants, and even gender-bending and Chinese-language transformations can all be achieved through the Hormone Fruit's power—it's practically omnipotent.

But only if his fingernails can pierce the skin of the white-masked man.

"He used Armament Haki. Ivankov, you can't possibly be unable to break through his Armament Haki, can you?"

Sieg asked from the side, his tone still indifferent.

But a thin layer of sweat gradually appeared on his forehead.

Damn it, right now the entire pirate ship only has his own group of bandits and Ivankov's group of revolutionary soldiers.

Ivankov was already one of the strongest on this ship, and even in the entire fleet.

What if Ivankov can't solve it?

The dragon seemed to be on another ship far away. By the time he arrived, he probably wouldn't be able to withstand the attack with his bare hands.

Upon hearing Sig's words, Ivankov was slightly taken aback, then suddenly understood.

No wonder Siegfried, who had clearly subdued White Mask, insisted on having him take action.

"Sigurd is testing our Revolutionary Army."

"If our Revolutionary Army couldn't even control CP0 members who were forced to their knees by Sigurd's sword and could only defend themselves with Armament Haki..."

"I'm afraid Sigboy will think that we are not qualified to accept this gift, and thus take it back."

Thinking of this, Ivankov's eyes hardened.

For the revolutionary army, we'll fight to the death.

"Armament Haki Hardening".

"Sleep hormones".

The fingernails grew back, this time wrapped in Armament Haki, like ten hard daggers, stabbing into the white mask once more.

This time, his fingernail didn't break, but it still couldn't pierce the white mask's skin, and the two were locked in a stalemate.

"Armament Haki doesn't seem to be Ivankov's forte... His Armament Haki level seems to be inferior to CP0's."

Sig's forehead was covered in even more sweat.

Now, he is almost at his wit's end.

He was completely paralyzed except for his mouth, so there was absolutely nothing he could do...

Huh? The mouth can still move?

In the face of crisis, Sieg's mind raced, his gaze shifting back and forth between Ivankov and the white mask, and an idea popped into his head.

But thinking about what I'm about to say still makes me feel a little ashamed... Maybe I should send the others away.

"Everyone on deck, get out of here! I have a secret to tell Ivankov, right now!"

Sieg said seriously.

The bandits were momentarily stunned, but immediately obeyed the order and retreated far away.

The revolutionary soldiers hesitated for a moment, then looked at Ivankov with questioning eyes.

“You should go too,” Ivankov agreed.

A moment later, only these three people remained on the bow deck.

Sig remained in a downward slashing stance, CP0 was half-kneeling, while Ivankov kept trying to stab CP0 hard with his fingernails.

"Sigboy, what secret are you trying to tell me?"

Sieg didn't answer, his gaze fixed on CP0, and he asked quietly:

"CP0, do you crave breasts?"

Wearing a white mask, CP0 showed no emotion, but Ivankov was shocked, wondering if he had misheard.

“I understand, you certainly yearn for it. So I congratulate you here, the door to a new world is about to open for you.”

Sieg started spouting nonsense with a serious expression:

"Ivankov is a user of the Hormone-Hormone Fruit, he can inject you with male and female hormones...you know what I mean?"

The white-masked figure, still struggling, suddenly shuddered.

Sieg's expression was full of sincerity as he continued:

"That's right, Ivankov can give you what you've been longing for! As the saying goes, 'Give a man a fish and you feed him for a day; teach a man to fish and you feed him for a lifetime.' No matter how good other people's breasts are, how can they compare to growing a pair yourself?"

The man in the white mask shuddered.

Seeing this, Sieg continued his relentless verbal attacks:

"If you're not satisfied, that's simple too. With Ivankov around, I guarantee you can switch between genders at any time, jumping back and forth on the path of gender, helping you find your most authentic self. Isn't that wonderful?"
