I am the Bandit King of the East Sea.

"Admiral Skey has already gone up, let's follow!"

The other pirates followed suit, and the cannon fire gradually subsided, with countless pirate ships charging in from all directions.

The melee has begun.

Barrett clenched his fists, impatient and eager to get started. Before Rayleigh could give the order, he leaped up and landed heavily on an approaching pirate ship.

"It's been a long time since I've fought so many enemies."

Barrett let out an excited growl, his eyes bloodshot and his body covered in Armament Haki, as he charged into the enemy ranks with a low growl.

Each punch generated a whistling sound, shattering ships and sending dozens or even hundreds of enemies flying backward.

He is the most battlefield-adapted descendant of demons, long accustomed to fighting alone against multiple opponents. He is more comfortable with this unequal battle of one against many than with one-on-one duels against top-tier powerhouses.

"It's a pity that the catapult was destroyed."

The thought crossed his mind.

The Fusion Fruit grants the ability to create an army on his own. If he can fuse with his submarine, he can transform into a giant submarine-man and sweep across the ocean.

Rayleigh, Jabba, and the others led the combatants on deck into battle against the seemingly endless enemy forces.

The waves roared, and the sounds of shouting and gunfire mingled together. Amidst the chaos, blood splattered, and the air was filled with the stench of blood.

Meanwhile, Sieg had already returned to the upper cabin, where he stayed with a few non-combatants, observing the battlefield situation.

The situation of Roger's pirate crew is not optimistic.

This pirate crew isn't very large, just one ship full, but their average bounty is quite high, and the combatants are all quite strong.

The Flying Pirates are not only numerous, but their members are also of high caliber.

When Shiki first established his pirate crew, he recruited a large number of crew members from the former Rocks Pirates. These seasoned pirates were able to hold their own against Roger's crew.

However, the Flying Pirates' fleet had far too many pirates.

Sig even recognized several familiar faces among them: they were former elite combatants and officers of the Rocks Pirates, who had now been recruited by Golden Lion.

Time passed slowly, and the battle remained deadlocked for a long time.

As Roger's crew gradually lost their strength, they eventually fell into a disadvantageous position against the seemingly endless Flying Pirates.

Even Barrett herself was overwhelmed by a group of elite pirates and gradually swallowed up by the vast ocean of pirates.

On the deck, Bucky was beheaded by a burly man with a single blow, his head flying dozens of meters through the air as he cried out:

"Mr. Rayleigh, we really can't hold on any longer. We're no match for the Golden Lion... We're clearly at a disadvantage now, and we have no reinforcements. How are we supposed to win?"

Bucky was talking to himself when suddenly his eyes lit up:

"Wait, that rich Wang Xige, isn't he in the upper cabin and not involved in the battle?"

Bucky's head flew towards the upper cabin, but soon a figure leaped up, grabbed Bucky's ponytail, and pulled him down.

“Listen, Bucky.” Jabba chopped the burly man down with his axe, reattached Bucky’s head, and solemnly said:

"This is a battle between the Roger Pirates and the Flying Pirates. Don't even think about letting anyone else interfere!"

"Do you understand?"

In the upper cabin, Sieg stood by the window, looking down at the battlefield below, and taking in the scene.

"Why hasn't the weather changed yet? Where's the promised storm?"

Sieg felt a little anxious.

The current situation is completely opposite to what happened at God Valley.

This was also a major historical event, a battle powerful enough to change the course of history.

Sig of God Valley must participate as Lox, but here he should stand by and watch.

He leaned out the window and looked at the sky outside.

Thick clouds covered the battlefield in this sea area, but not a single drop of rain fell, making it seem like no storm was about to break.

"Do you think it will rain? Is a storm coming?"

Sieg asked the navigator next to him who was not participating in the battle.

The navigator shook his head with a hint of surprise.

"There was absolutely no sign of rain, and the wind and waves were not big."

As the navigator of Roger's pirate crew, and having sailed with him all the way to the pseudo-final island, Water Star Island, his navigator skills are beyond doubt.

"But speaking of which, we're almost there. Although going to that island now would be pointless, as it's impossible to get rid of the Golden Lion."

The navigator pointed to the gradually emerging outline of Thor's Isle in the distance.

Chapter 800 The Dragon King's Work

Top-tier Logia-type Devil Fruit users possess immense destructive power, capable of even permanently altering the climate of an entire island.

The same applies to Thor's Island.

Today, this island is forever bathed in dense lightning, like a curtain of rain.

Thor is dead, but the island remains an impassable one.

"Thunder Island?"

Sig followed the navigator's gaze and looked toward Thunder Isle in the distance.

A huge, dark cloud hangs over the island, never dissipating, and every moment a great deal of lightning is brewing within it.

Sig turned his head again and glanced at the naval battlefield below where a fierce battle was taking place.

Roger was in excellent condition at this time, but he was also held back by Shiki the Golden Lion, and the two sides were engaged in fierce fighting on their ships.

Although Rayleigh and his companions were strong, they were not powerful enough to fight against the Golden Lion's massive fleet.

Sieg was a veteran of many major battles and could see the tide of the war.

"Just like in history, we were almost in dire straits, but the difference is, did the storm that was supposed to come not come?"

Sig looked up at the sky but still couldn't see any raindrops.

He made a decision.

Sieg climbed out of the window, and amidst the astonished gazes of the navigators and others around him, he quickly gazed at the direction above Thor Island and flew away into the distance.

"Mr. Wang Xige?"

The remaining navigators and others in the cabin stared in astonishment at Sieg's departing figure.

"He... ran away?"

"Are you heading in that direction to take the opportunity to leave and land on Thor Island alone?"

These pirates had all witnessed the battle between Higuma and Barrett, and knew that he was a very strong fighter.

Although Rayleigh said that the matter had nothing to do with Sig, these people, more or less, still held the hope that this mysterious and powerful King Sig would join the battle and help them.

As they ran, their hearts sank, and a sense of unease arose within them.

"That's right... Our Roger Pirates might be going to perish here."

"That guy should take this opportunity to leave as soon as possible, so he won't get involved in the clash between our two pirate crews."

In just a moment, Sig’s figure disappeared into the clouds and could no longer be seen.

Higuma moved quickly enough that some members of the Flying Pirates, who were engaged in fierce fighting, saw the figure leave, but most of them didn't pay much attention to it.

"Did a pirate escape from Roger's ship?"

"Who cares? The entire pirate crew is going to be wiped out by us. One deserter on the battlefield is nothing to worry about."

In the midst of the fierce battle, the Golden Lion brandished his twin swords, deflecting Roger's longsword, while glancing in the direction where Sig's figure had disappeared.

"Thunder Island?"

The Golden Lion frowned slightly as he recalled some unpleasant experiences.

In a clash between experts of their caliber, even a moment's lapse in concentration could be exploited, leading to defeat.

Shiki the Golden Lion didn't think much of it and continued fighting Roger.

.............

Meanwhile, above this sea area, Sig stood on the clouds, gazing in all directions.

The naval battle was nearing its end, but as he stood atop the clouds and looked around, he still couldn't spot any thunderclouds or cumulonimbus clouds.

The only thundercloud was the one that covered the sky above Thunder God Island.

Sieg made a decision in his heart.

He didn't want to get involved in such a major plot event, but the current situation seems to have forced him to intervene.

"Dragon King, come out and spout water!"

At that moment, a slender and magnificent azure dragon appeared in the clouds, its majestic voice booming like thunder in Sieg's ears:

"If you were a dragon, that would be fine too."

"Stop talking nonsense."

Sig flipped himself onto the Dragon King's head, placing his hands skillfully on the steering wheel and dragon horns.

"Take a quick glance down at the sea below. Could you use your best water-spraying skills to blast the Golden Lion fleet to death?"

Upon hearing this, the Dragon King raised his claw to part a cloud below, glanced at the sea, and then silently looked away.

The Dragon King said speechlessly, "What do you take me for? My water spray isn't that big."

Sig was momentarily speechless, then looked away, gazing at the sky above Thor's Isle in the distance, and continued:

"I've heard that summoning wind and rain and riding the clouds are dragons' instincts, as natural as you being able to spray water. If you add the thunderclouds over there and combine them with your Dragon King incantation, could you do it?"

The Dragon King glanced at the sky above Thunder God Island in the distance and exclaimed in surprise:

"It's that big? Those people down there probably can't handle it. We can give it a try."

"This ocean is more turbulent than ordinary oceans, and with that thundercloud, it might even brew storms that I can't control," the Dragon King said.
