I am the Bandit King of the East Sea.

At this point, even this massive man, Hale, managed to squeeze out a few tears from his eyes:

"I am the immortal king Hale, and since birth, I have been the undisputed king Sig!"

His voice echoed across the ocean, lingering for a long time.

This left Festa speechless.

Captain John, who had been leisurely drinking his wine, suddenly changed his expression and immediately gave an order:

"Quickly adjust the camera, zoom in, and focus it on that person's face!"

On the big screen.

The camera zooms in, and the face of the man standing in front of Hale gradually becomes clear.

This is a handsome man's face, probably only in his twenties, with an appearance as ordinary as Louis Koo.

He simply nodded slightly at Hale in front of him, and said approvingly:

"Good! Very energetic!"

Familiar faces, familiar voices.

This shattered the last shred of hope in the hearts of many pirates, including Captain John, who had experienced the old era.

"How could it be him?"

"How could it be him! Wasn't he dead a long time ago?"

A stone stirred up a thousand waves.

Even those on the island who weren't fighting changed their expressions.

These former members of the Rocks Pirates knew exactly what King Higash's appearance meant.

"Even the strongest Rocks back then couldn't kill him!"

"Or rather, he fooled Rocks at the time and survived in secret!"

"And his strength... I've never heard of Wang Xige being a great swordsman? Damn, he was hiding his strength back then?"

Upon hearing Wang Xige's name, Yin Fu and the others immediately began to curse and swear.

They didn't have a good impression of this first mate, nor did they have any connection with him.

"That certainly sounds like something Wang Xige would do... Hey, this guy has been lying in wait for so many years, and now he's showing up to steal the last legacy left by Rocks?"

The expressions on Yin Fu and the others' faces were uncertain.

"It seems these old friends aren't very welcoming of my appearance."

Wang Xige's teasing voice rang out.

He glanced at the screen with a smirk, a wine bottle already in his hand.

The moment the bottle appeared, Hale, who was standing next to him, was startled.

He's very familiar with this...

Among the world's strongest, only Sieg would use this ridiculous weapon to smash people; it can't even be called a proper weapon.

But everyone, including Hale and Silver Axe, seemed to have seen some kind of deadly weapon, and their anger was suppressed.

Seeing this bottle immediately brings to mind the scene on Scarborough Island where Wang Sieg used a bottle to break the will of Blackwing Tengu and the others.

at the same time.

Many people on the island ship were also watching intently.

The commotion caused by Sieg was so great that even Redfield had to stop fighting and watch from afar.

"Wang Xige? His swordsmanship is amazing."

Redfield whispered, his eyes gleaming slightly.

He was drawn here by the banner of the swordsmanship competition and had no interest in Lox's legacy.

Before Sig appeared, although there were strong people on the island, there was no one who could rival him in swordsmanship, which made him a little disappointed.

Now things are much better.

At that moment, Sieg also looked up and met his gaze from afar.

"The Lone Red, Baron Redfield?"

"Your swordsmanship is not bad," Sieg commented calmly, looking down at him.

"But you're relying too much on your powerful Observation Haki."

"Understanding someone's thoughts is indeed an extremely powerful ability, but for you at the moment, it has become a shackle that hinders your further advancement in swordsmanship."

“Hmm?” Redfield gave a cold laugh:

"Wait until you lose to me, then let's see if you can still put on this condescending attitude."

"Hehe..." Sieg chuckled lightly.

"Understanding people's hearts is not necessarily a good thing, and you know that in your heart."

"Words can deceive others, but is the truth always what's in one's heart?"

"If you think your abilities are impeccable, you might as well come and listen."

Sieg smiled slightly, raised the bottle in his hand, and poured it into his mouth.

As the liquor flowed down, one of the translucent, bear paw-shaped bubbles, brimming with negativity, was placed in Sieg's mouth.

Then, take a bite.

Chapter 827 Wang Xige's Last Battle

For Wang Xige, it wasn't too unusual for him to get carried away with drinking and having fun on the battlefield.

He had already done this many years ago.

This time is no different.

Sieg put down the bottle and wiped his mouth.

His eyes were half-open, his eyelids drooping, and he seemed to suddenly feel a little depressed, as if everything had become dull and tasteless.

The spilled liquor onto the floor reminded the former Rocks Pirates crew members present of an incident from many years ago.

The aloof Red Redfield was also watching Sieg.

A person's name, a tree's shadow.

Although Wang Xige's name was short-lived, it was quite prominent during the era of Rocks. This can be seen from the reactions of many of Rocks' former subordinates present, which shows how formidable he was.

"Let me hear your heart's voice? This is the first time I've heard such a strange request."

"Ha... I really don't want to hear the thoughts of these scumbags."

Redfield stared coldly at Sieg, while glancing at the pirates around him out of the corner of his eye.

He was born with extremely strong Observation Haki, which allows him to see into the hearts of others.

But before he had mastered this ability, he could only passively listen to the dirty thoughts of others, thus becoming increasingly distant from the crowd.

Over time, it acquired the nickname "The Lonely Red".

The Pirate Expo was a melting pot of all sorts of people, and there were quite a few pirates of all kinds on this island ship. As usual, Redfield did not use his Observation Haki to listen to their thoughts.

If this ability is activated, it instantly transforms the battlefield into a public square, where you can constantly hear friendly greetings from those around you.

"Then let's listen to it."

With a silent activation of his Observation Haki, the commotion of the entire battlefield flowed into Redfield's heart.

He filtered out the noise and distractions of those around him, focusing his attention solely on Sieg.

"I don't want to fight anymore..."

"Redfield is so strong."

"It seems I'm going to die here this time."

"Will my final battle, King Sig, end with my death?"

These extremely negative sentiments were very clear to Redfield, and compared to the sentiments of those around him, they were as loud as fireflies compared to the bright moon.

Redfield was stunned.

He looked up at Sieg, only to see Sieg staring at him expressionlessly, his face showing no fear or panic, but only indifference.

Recalling what Sieg had said earlier, Redfield couldn't help but feel a little suspicious.

It's so weird.

Wang Xige was quite arrogant just now, and his words were full of domineering arrogance.

And that's all he was thinking?

"What's going on? Is this really what he truly feels?"

"No... My abilities have never failed me. One cannot deceive oneself; the voice of the heart is the only one that reflects one's true thoughts."

Redfield shook his head.

Over the years, he has heard the voices of too many people.

Many people who appear glamorous on the outside have filthy hearts, and their true nature is completely different from their outward appearance.

There are many people whose outward appearance and inner thoughts are vastly different, and Wang Xige is probably no exception.

"So he was just bluffing? But why did he mainly ask me to listen to his true feelings?"

Although Redfield was confident, his inner doubts remained unresolved.

Roar!

At that moment, the waves surged up again, and another enormous and terrifying sea monster emerged from the sea.

This is a sea king shaped like a goldfish, but its mouth is covered with sharp serrations, each tooth being tens or even hundreds of meters high, making it look rather eerie.

A massive shadow loomed over the island ship; it was another behemoth capable of swallowing the entire ship whole.
