I am the Bandit King of the East Sea.

"How can it be so bright? It's like a flash..."

Sig shielded his eyes with his hand and glanced at the Sun Warrior out of the corner of his eye. In the afterglow of the setting sun, the long sword in the Sun Warrior's hand shone brightly like a long light tube.

"What the hell? He put a light on the knife?" Sig was also shocked.

As Roger was dazzled, a faint, mocking smile appeared on the corner of the Sun Warrior's mouth beneath his mask.

For some unknown reason, he had already pulled a pistol out of his armor with his left hand.

Bang bang bang!

The pistol in the Sun Warrior's hand shot several bloody holes in Roger's body, and the force of the bullets passing through his body caused Roger's body to fall backward to the ground.

Clang.

Roger loosened his grip on the longsword, which fell to the ground.

"I'm so sorry, I couldn't fulfill your longing for the samurai of Wano Country."

"Goodbye, naive swordsman who blindly trusts the enemy." The Sun Warrior's lips curled into a smile.

Chapter 625 Have you ever seen a swordsman who can cut through bullets?

The Sun Warrior aimed his pistol at the fallen Roger once more:

"Times have changed."

"Keeping pace with the times and adapting to the trends of the era is the way of the strong."

"This thing is much better than a knife."

boom!

At the same time as the gunshot rang out, another voice was heard.

"Universal Guidance!"

Roger, shot and lying on the ground, slid across the surface like an eel before being drawn into Sieg's palm.

"Huh? What is that? What kind of weird move is that? Is it from someone with special abilities?"

This unexpected turn of events stunned the Sun Warrior, and his gaze toward Sig immediately changed.

The Sun Warriors, who often use various tricks in battle, are quite experienced in dealing with powerful opponents with considerable strength.

But Sieg's move made him more cautious.

After all, there are too many strange and wonderful Devil Fruits in this world, and even top experts can be defeated if they are careless.

On the other side, Sieg slightly raised his hand, deactivated the 100% chance of catching the blade barehanded, and carefully examined Roger's body.

Although he was shot several times, none of the wounds were fatal.

"Although he couldn't dodge the shot in time, he barely avoided a vital spot? Roger's Observation Haki seems to have gotten stronger."

"Damn, I'm so envious..."

With his heart set on it, Sieg stood in front of Roger.

Facing the Sun Warrior, Sieg didn't feel much fear or pressure.

Sig had heard some of the things about the Sun Warrior Tadabi in the future.

He wasn't a famous swordsman from Wano Country, but rather someone who fought using various unorthodox methods, repeatedly defeating stronger opponents and killing many powerful individuals through cunning and underhanded tactics.

Among the fifty-six emperors, apart from a very few demi-human races, the vast majority of them were far from reaching their peak strength in this era.

As for the Sun Warrior, whose raw strength wasn't particularly high to begin with, Sieg probably wouldn't find him too difficult to deal with.

“Roger, I told you you’d be disappointed,” Sieg whispered.

“No…” Roger gasped for breath, sat up from the ground, and said:

"I was indeed naive."

"The word 'despicable' doesn't apply to battles between sea bandits and mountain bandits."

Roger was speaking when his expression suddenly changed, and his gaze fell on Sieg's hand.

Sig had already drawn his sword and stood facing the Sun Warrior from afar, as if the scene from just moments ago was repeating itself.

"Times have changed?" Sig asked casually, staring calmly at the dark muzzle of the Sun Warrior's gun.

"True swordsmanship can never be inferior to firearms."

Have you ever seen a swordsman who can cut through bullets?

Sig gripped his longsword tightly and stepped toward the Sun Warrior.

Upon hearing this, Roger's expression immediately brightened.

Sig also always carried a sword and was a swordsman like Roger, but Roger had never seen Sig display any real swordsmanship along the way.

"Although it's a bit of a shame that I couldn't defeat this Wano Country samurai myself... it's also great to have witnessed King Sig's true swordsmanship."

Roger clutched his wound, his interest surging once more.

The Sun Warrior gripped a gun in one hand, aiming it at Sig, and held a sword in the other, its blade gleaming white like the sun, poised to strike.

Sig, wielding a longsword in one hand, approached the Sun Warrior step by step, seemingly with ease.

In the instant the two closed the distance to three steps.

The Sun Warrior swung his longsword downwards with his right hand, and a white light burst forth from the sword once more before shooting towards Sig!

With his left hand, he pulled the trigger, and several shots rang out as bullets whistled through the air.

"Is this guy really a swordsman?" Roger was a little surprised, but when he looked closely, he realized that the Sun Warrior's attack wasn't a flying slash, but... a flashbang?

At this moment, Sieg's movements were also swift.

A wine bottle had been thrown out by him at some point, and it was about to collide with the bullets in mid-air when the sprayed wine transformed into a whistling sword light that flashed past and shattered the glittering ball of light.

As the white light faded, Sig's figure appeared behind the Sun Warrior, temporarily canceling the Li Jing Card and activating the Flying Thunder God Slash!

He thrust his sword fiercely into the back of the Sun Warrior!

With this thrust, a crisp metallic clang rang out.

"How come it's so hard? It didn't pierce the armor?"

Sig's expression changed slightly. His forceful thrust of the sword hadn't gone an inch, so he immediately jumped back to create some distance.

The Sun Warrior slowly turned around and met Sieg's gaze with a strangely complex look.

In the brief exchange just now, neither side actually drew their swords properly, and neither gained any advantage.

Both sides understood each other perfectly.

It seems we've met our match this time.

"Wait...aren't we supposed to use swordsmanship?" Roger, who was still resting nearby, was a little stunned.

"No, to deal with this kind of enemy, you must defeat him in his area of ​​expertise! Only in this way can you plant the shadow of defeat in his heart!"

Sieg casually remarked, as he took another bottle from his inventory and splashed it, causing cone-shaped flames to burst forth.

"I live in exile and join forces to kill!"

As the Sun Warrior feigned a swing of his sword, several shuriken in his left hand pierced through the flames, grazing past Sig's body.

"High-explosive bottle!"

"I will cut off my cassock!"

The Sun Warrior pulled out all sorts of gadgets from the pockets of his armor; shurikens, hidden darts, and bullets whizzed past, while Sig also used his magic to conjure bottles out of thin air from his hands.

Every now and then, Sig would secretly open his inventory and steal a couple of bites of his stored rations.

As the sun set, the two sides stood still, banging and clanging away. Various props were scattered and collided in the air like celestial flowers, leaving the wasteland in a mess.

"What a thrilling and exhilarating battle!"

Sig glanced at the ground and sighed.

The Sun Warrior snorted coldly.

"Hmph...you're quite a troublesome fellow."

For some reason, he suddenly had the illusion that he and Sieg admired each other.

"There are too many mindless brutes in this world; there aren't many smart people like you and me anymore."

“A smart person?” Sieg smiled, neither confirming nor denying.

The next second, a large bear trap appeared in his hand, its sharp, serrated blade gleaming with a cold metallic light, sending a chill down one's spine.

The Sun Warrior was also taken aback, then burst into laughter.

"A trap? Are you kidding me? You've brought this trap into the open, how could I possibly fall for it?"

"is it?"

Ignoring the Sun Warrior's suspicious gaze, Sieg carefully placed the bear trap on the floor in front of him and methodically set up the trap.

Suspicion lingered, and the Sun Warriors remained inactive, believing that Sieg was merely spreading misinformation.

The next second, Sig faced the Sun Warrior from afar, opened his palm, and a sliver of a sword tip faintly emerged.

Chapter 626 The Upright and Honorable King Sig

"Universal Guidance!"

Sig gently swung his hand down.

Instantly, the Sun Warrior's expression changed, and his body involuntarily rushed towards Sig, then he stomped hard on the bear trap!

A soft click!

The bear trap was activated, and the chilling serrated blades snapped shut, like interlocking canine teeth biting into the Sun Warrior's calf!

Even though the Sun Warrior was wearing armor, he couldn't completely stop the bear trap. The red armor plates dented inward and pierced deep into his flesh, leaving him a bloody mess.

"Well----"
