I am the Bandit King of the East Sea.

But then he saw students crowding around him, shouting:

"Teacher! I want to learn the real chainsaw technique!"

"Even Hawkeye Mihawk is looking forward to the chainsaw technique... please teach it to us!"

"Please, we're willing to do anything, we can endure any kind of training!"

Surrounded by a group of children, Koushirou's smile froze for a moment, and he finally sighed softly, glancing at Sig in the crowd in the distance.

...........

Half an hour later, in the inner room of the dojo, Koushirou dismissed the students and sat inside with Sig and Kuina.

"Is Mr. Sig also planning to take his leave?" Koushirou asked, this time without a smile, his eyes filled with a hint of resentment.

“Not bad.” Sig nodded.

"I also hope that Mr. Koushirou will refrain from revealing anything about me to the public for the time being..."

As Sieg spoke, he also took out 100 million Berries from his inventory and placed it on the table.

I made a lot of money in Wano Country before, and now I have about 1.5 billion Berries left in my inventory.

This 100 million is considered an apology for the chainsaw incident, and compensation for the collapse of the attic stairs earlier.

"No problem, no problem..." Koushirou took the wad of banknotes, nodded, and muttered to himself:

"With this 100 million, our chainsaw sword might be able to be upgraded to version 6.0... Wait, what am I saying?"

Koushirou accepted the money, while Kuina stood up, still holding the broken chainsaw sword in her hand.

“Mr. Sig, it seems my training is still insufficient.”

Kuina lowered her head, her voice low, but then she looked up, her gaze resolute as she looked at Sieg:

"If I'm not mistaken, Mr. Sig is planning to enter the Grand Line via Loguetown, right?"

“Yeah…what’s wrong?” Sig asked.

“I still have some time left on my vacation, and it’s on my way to meet Mr. Sig.”

"I hope to be able to accompany Mr. Sieg before my vacation ends."

Kuina gripped the chainsaw broken in two tightly in her hand and walked toward Sig, her expression focused and serious.

Whether it's chainsaw skills or swordsmanship, who in this world can compare to the legendary bandit king?

Even Hawkeye Mihawk, the world's greatest swordsman, is still controversial because of the existence of the Mountain Bandit King, which puts quotation marks around the title of "world's greatest swordsman."

“You’re a Marine. If someone finds you hanging out with a wanted criminal like me with a bounty of billions, you’re dead in no time.” Sig pushed up his sunglasses and casually refused.

Guina did not give up. She looked at the sunglasses on Sig's face, reached out, took off Sig's sunglasses, and put them on her own face.

As we all know, wearing glasses makes it impossible for most people to recognize you.

Chapter 1012 First Encounter with the Straw Hat Pirates

The East China Sea is not like the Grand Line; the weather is much more normal, so it's not a difficult task for Seago, who now has considerable sailing experience.

The small boat wasn't large, but it was more than enough to accommodate several crew members.

Besides Kuina, there was also a bunch of chainsaws on the ship. These were some of the supplies that Koushirou had accumulated over the past ten years.

Out of consideration for the 100 million Berries, all of these supplies were given to Sieg.

Sig usually lay on the bow deck, while Kuina operated the rudder on the other side, controlling the direction.

Kuina is now a captain in the Navy Headquarters, unlike when she was a child.

It should be noted that the hundreds of naval branches across the four seas have branch base chiefs who are roughly equivalent to branch colonels, at most brigadier generals, and these people are practically local tyrants.

For example, in the original work, Captain Morgan of the East Blue Navy branch was a local tyrant who ruled over a town.

This is three levels lower than the current Guina.

In just two years, he went from a novice to a colonel at headquarters, which is quite fast.

As a naval captain, she was obviously skilled in navigation and volunteered to sail the boat, much to Sieg's delight.

In her spare time, Kuina would come over and earnestly ask for advice on the training methods of the chainsaw style.

This earnestness even gave Sieg a headache, and he felt a little regretful for having promised to let Kuina accompany him.

After all, his so-called chainsaw style... is basically just talk.

"All I can say is that those who know it know it, and there's nothing wrong with learning more and practicing more."

Whenever this happens, Sieg will start making excuses, then stand at the bow and use telekinesis to envelop the small boat, propelling it swiftly through the waves.

The burden on the ship had increased considerably compared to before, but Sieg could still manage it at this point.

Using telekinesis to envelop a ship and accelerate its journey is also a method of training telekinesis.

Of course, in Guina's view, Sig's ability to greatly increase the ship's speed simply by standing still at the bow made Sig's image even more mysterious in her mind.

The two people and one cat had been sailing for several days.

On this day, a gentle sea breeze blew, and the small boat drifted on the waves.

As usual, Sieg lay on the deck gazing at the sky, casually flipping through the diary left behind by Sun Bear.

At that moment, a huge shadow descended, blocking out the sunlight, and the diary could no longer be read.

Sig turned his head and looked to the side.

At some point, a huge sailboat sailed past the small boat, shrouded in mist.

The ship was large, but strangely, there were few people on the deck, and the hull was covered with large areas of damage.

A ghost ship?

Guina glanced at it but did not make any rash moves.

Anyone with experience sailing the Great Seas knows that when encountering strange things at sea, one should not be too curious and act rashly.

What looks like a ghost ship is actually a trap set by pirates... This kind of thing is not uncommon.

Therefore, neither Sig nor Guina could do anything but watch the dilapidated ship pass by in silence.

It wasn't until the large ship was about to disappear below the horizon that Sieg's heart stirred.

Ahead of the large ship, Sieg spotted another sailboat drifting on the sea.

The most striking feature is the shape of the bow, which resembles a fish head looking up at the sky with its mouth wide open.

“It’s the Baratie, a seaside restaurant,” Guina concluded.

"The floating restaurant has been drifting in the East China Sea... Mr. Sig, it seems we're quite lucky to have stumbled upon it..."

"Should we go over and have a bite too?" Guina suggested.

Sig turned and glanced at Guina.

The floating restaurant Barati, the wrecked ship that just passed by, and the Hawkeye Mihawk who appeared in Shimotsuki Village a few days ago...

"Although it differs somewhat from the original, I can already guess the plot..."

The ghost ship that brushed past us must be the Krieg Pirates, the largest pirate crew in the East Blue, led by Admiral Krieg, the overlord of the East Blue.

This man led a massive fleet of 50 ships and 5000 men into the Grand Line, only to be casually cut down by Hawkeye. He somehow managed to escape back to the East China Sea.

Right now, it should be the storyline of the Baratie restaurant and the Krieg Pirates.

Sieg thought for a moment, then nodded in agreement:

"Then let's go."

According to the original storyline, the swordsman Joseph, the sword saint Johnny, and of course the fledgling Straw Hat Pirates will all appear at the Baratie.

Ten years later, Sieg wanted to see them again.

Returning to the East Sea of ​​this world, Sieg felt like a pro player returning to a beginner's village, completely relaxed.

The only one that Siegfried was Hawkeye Mihawk... Sieg stroked the stubble on his chin.

A few days ago at the Isshin Dojo in Shimotsuki Village, Hawkeye didn't recognize him at all, and didn't even glance at him.

This time, Sieg was very confident in his disguise.

Kuina steered the ship, changing direction and heading towards the floating restaurant.

As the ship drew closer, Sig also caught sight of the small pirate ship with a ram's head symbol on its bow, moored beside the sea restaurant.

The Going Merry, the Straw Hat Pirates' pirate ship.

"The Straw Hat Pirates, just starting out?"

Sieg picked up the yawning blue and white cat next to him, scratched its chin, and made it squint comfortably.

“By the way, there’s a Straw Hat Pirates crew up ahead. Do you want to hide?” Sig asked.

The blue and white cat returned Sig's bewildered look.

"Why are you hiding? What are you doing?"

“Because you’re a cat,” Sieg said casually.

The blue and white cat stared blankly with its big eyes, and it took it a long time to react.

"Eat shit, Sig!" It immediately extended its paw from its paw and pounced to scratch Sig's face.

But Sieg was prepared.

The blue and white cat that had just pounced forward was enveloped by an invisible telekinetic force, and the entire cat was suspended in the air, struggling helplessly.

Just then, a commotion arose ahead.

"Thank you so much for your hospitality at the Baratie restaurant on the sea. I feel like I've come back to life."

With bandages wrapped around his head, the burly, crew-cut man Creek gazed at the sea restaurant, a cruel smile spreading across his face as he raised his large battle gun.

"Now... hand over all the valuables on your ship!"

The Krieg Pirates were fully revived, and the pirates raised their weapons and cheered to the sky.

"Are you the Krieg Pirates?"
