I am the Bandit King of the East Sea.

Only the bald man skillfully took out a small notebook from his pocket, quickly flipped through it, and read aloud:

"No, this is clearly the sword that Boss Sig cultivated without fighting, using the way of the sword to reach the heavens and with a benevolent heart!"

"Upright and righteous, a single sword strike unleashes the power of heaven and earth..."

Well known.

In this world, the vast majority of battles are one-on-one duels between soldiers and kings, whether it's pirates or the navy.

A siege where the enemy outnumbers the enemy is usually a battle between a small group of enemies and a boss; it rarely happens in battles between strong individuals.

The fact that the fifty-six emperors knelt down usually meant they were begging for mercy, and it also meant that they were now Sig's opponents... It was not appropriate for others to interfere.

Besides, Roger and the others found it strange that they would beat up an enemy who was kneeling and praying and unable to move.

Roger and the others all turned to look at Sieg, only to see that his expression remained calm and composed.

But he was roaring inside.

"Why did I say before that it represented kindness... why did the bald guy have to write it down?!"

This left him speechless for a long time, unable to utter a single word.

But frankly, to actually say something that invites others to deliver the final blow, aside from contradicting the idea of ​​"mercy"...

The key point is that this will most likely expose the biggest weakness of being able to catch a blade bare-handed.

Sig himself was unable to move and therefore unable to finish off the enemy.

This is a major flaw.

Being caught bare-handed by a blade is actually a soft control skill. Its strength lies in its unpredictability, incomprehensibility, and contradiction of common sense, but it is not without weaknesses and shortcomings.

Compared to the depressing effects of a bottle that can instantly demoralize someone, being caught bare-handed with a blade can only immobilize someone, rendering them unable to move.

However, this does not prevent them from exerting force, using Haki, Devil Fruits, and other powers, so the fifty-six emperors kneeling on the ground are not entirely waiting to be slaughtered.

For powerful individuals who have mastered Armament Haki or similar physical techniques like Iron Body, being unable to move means they cannot dodge, but it does not necessarily mean certain death.

But Siegfried is different.

He did not master Armament Haki, and being immobilized meant that his Observation Haki and evasion abilities, which he relied on for survival, could not be used.

Although the inventory can be opened, the action of eating food cannot be performed, which means that the "Feast for Battle" skill will also lose its effect.

Once the weakness is exposed, this move can actually bring great danger.

...

The tip of Sieg's sword trembled slightly.

No one can catch the sword with their bare hands anymore, and his sword will no longer be crushed by anyone.

However, he could roughly sense some of the Fifty-Six Emperors' constant struggles. Although he was not immediately freed, it was as if he was wrestling with a ferocious beast, and he felt a sense of mental exhaustion.

“Barrett...take Roger and the others with you,” Sig said.

Barrett nodded slightly, and as she controlled the towering ship giant, a hatch opened on its previously seamless steel body.

He glanced indifferently at the fifty-six emperors kneeling before him, filled with shock and rage, then at the approaching giant wave.

The surging waves were approaching, and the air was filled with water mist, soaking them.

“I, Sig, have always won people over with virtue. Although I am a bandit, I have never killed indiscriminately while roaming the seas. Do you submit to me?”

"......Clothes."

"Clothes."

"What are you saying, First Mate? I, the Cockroach Bully, have always been your subordinate. What's there to be dissatisfied about?" Hale laughed.

He lowered his eyelids, looking down at the fifty-six emperors kneeling before him, and slowly said as the giant wave was about to sweep in:

"Since you're convinced, let's wipe the slate clean of past grievances. I can give you one last chance to live and leave."

Everyone nodded in agreement.

In this immobile situation, if the giant waves on both sides crash down, even the strongest ability user would surely die.

Sig glanced at the giant wave, felt the force of its struggle, and raised the sword in his hand.

It can be neutralized 100% by catching the blade barehanded.

In that instant, the fifty-six emperors suddenly lost their restraints and regained their ability to move.

Some were still in shock and disbelief, while others were still furious, their eyes flashing with cold light.

The Black-Winged Tengu immediately flapped its wings and tried to escape.

"Wang Xige!"

"Sig!"

About a dozen people were furious and roared as they charged toward Sieg, even faster than when they had charged toward Roger.

Being forced to kneel by Sieg's sword was the greatest humiliation, even more unbearable than having a bottle smashed over one's head.

Sig's eyes turned cold.

"I only give you one chance."

He looked up at the approaching white waves and reached behind his head to brush them aside.

A pale golden halo rippled behind his head, making him appear like a god or a Buddha.

Dark flames erupted from Sieg's body, engulfing him and his form.

At the same time, he once again made a feinting slash forward with his sword!

"I am the king of the mountain bandits, and I shall suppress all enemies in the world."

Beneath the towering white waves, the great pirates who had just risen and charged towards Sigir's face changed drastically. Their swords and knelt down, their hands clasped together.

The fleeing Black-Winged Tengu fell from the sky like a meteor once more, kneeling among the crowd.

Rumble!

A deafening roar from the white wall swept in, completely engulfing the kneeling crowd and Sig, who was shrouded in black flames; everything was gone.

This was the last scene Roger and his crew saw after entering the ship giant's internal compartments.

Chapter 851 A Giant Wave That Overturned the Era

Giant waves surged, crashing against the shore and churning up thousands of piles of snow.

Shipwreck Island was completely swallowed by the giant wave, and the mountains of wrecked ships were utterly destroyed.

On the surging sea.

Dark flames rose from the sea, and Sieg, holding Wiburn in one arm, stepped onto the surface of the sea.

The third stage of the jet-black flames can scorch seawater. Although it consumes a lot of chuunibyou energy, Sigurd can still protect himself in the tsunami.

Before him lay only an endless expanse of sea; the Destroyer Ship Island was no more.

But this is only temporary. Due to ocean currents, wrecked ships in the surrounding waters will still be swept to the shipwreck island area, forming new shipwreck islands.

"He's alive."

Sig breathed a sigh of relief. He continued to stand on the air and looked around. In the distance, he saw the ship giant, which had transformed into a ship, and his ironclad pirate ship.

Further away, several more figures sped away at an incredible speed toward the city of Water City.

Sig could vaguely make out the figures of these people; they were among the survivors of the fifty-six emperors, including Lone Red and Vald.

The power of the two giant waves had been largely consumed in the collision, so for Water Seven, which had been through many tsunamis, the aftershocks of this tsunami were not a major threat.

Sig flew through the air and finally landed on the deck of the ironclad pirate ship.

As soon as he landed on the deck, Sieg felt dozens, even hundreds, of scorching gazes fixed on him.

The most intense gaze came from the bald man, so intense that it made Sieg's scalp tingle.

They heard a good tale of King Sig from the fifty-six emperors.

“Sieg…or should I call you King Sieg?” Crocus’s voice rang out.

Sieg quickly turned around and saw Crocus staring at him strangely, while Roger and Barrett stood to the side.

"I never imagined you all kept this from me for so long..." Crocus's voice was filled with emotion.

He was conducting a basic physical examination on Roger, his brow gradually furrowing:

"I thought you'd survived this long because you'd found a cure for your terminal illness... I never imagined it would get worse, even more so than it was over ten years ago."

"How have you managed to hold on until now?" Crocus asked suspiciously.

"Judging from your condition, I'm afraid you won't last even a month."

“It’s a long story…we need to focus on curing his illness as soon as possible,” Sieg said, turning to ask the bald man beside him:

Where are the revolutionaries?

The Revolutionary Army brought Robin to meet the giant Saul; they didn't bring many combatants and didn't participate in the previous battles.

According to the bald man, he had retreated to Water Seven well in advance when the tsunami struck.

"Rouge, and Toki Amatsuki are also in Water Seven," Roger reminded her.

“Very good.” Sig nodded.

"Then let's head to the port immediately and meet up with Amatsuki, the others, and the Revolutionary Army."

"Roger, according to the grand plan we discussed before, the key to the third part is to cure your terminal illness."

"Is this related to the Revolutionary Army?" Crocus asked, puzzled.

“That’s right, medical skills have their limits,” Sieg replied.

"But the power of Devil Fruits is supernatural, even beyond science. I know of a few that have the potential to cure terminal illnesses. But the only one I recognize is an officer in the Revolutionary Army."

The brief conversation between the two parties also excited the bald man.

"After so long, has Boss Sig finally brought up the big plan again?"

"As expected, 'King Roger' was a fraud; that man was the real Pirate King in history!"
