I am the Bandit King of the East Sea.

Stusi, who had remained calm in the face of the barrage of shells, and Onigumo and the others on the opposing naval warship, all changed color and became extremely solemn.

The sea monster carcass, as large as an island, has gradually sunk into the sea.

In that crimson sea of ​​blood, a small boat appeared out of nowhere.

The small boat was shaped like a strange coffin, with candles lit at both ends.

A dashing man wearing a black top hat and a black trench coat sat alone on a small boat, slowly sheathing a huge black sword behind his back.

Beneath the top hat, the man's eyes, with two rings of gold, were observing the battlefield with great interest.

Compared to the sea monster's corpse that was falling into the sea, this person and his boat were so small as to be negligible.

But in the eyes of Stussy and the others, this man and his ship were the only things in this world, and they couldn't take their eyes off them.

This maritime battlefield suddenly fell into an eerie silence.

The warships that had just locked onto the giant sea king suddenly fell silent.

"Hawkeye Mihawk! The world's greatest swordsman!"

"It is said that he has eyes as sharp as an eagle's, which would make even the strongest warrior tremble with fear! And yet I saw him here."

"The Seven Warlords of the Sea have also appeared here. Is he an ally of the Navy?"

Amid the discussion, some people raised questions:

"Wait, where did he come from?"

"That direction seems to be... the doldrums!"

The discussion abruptly ceased.

The two pirate crews were just discussing their plan to cross the Calm Belt.

But they never expected that there would be such a person, alone in a boat, crossing the Calm Belt!

"This is the world's greatest swordsman!"

"No wonder there are such enormous sea kings in this calm zone; they were attracted here by Hawkeye!"

"That sea king just now, was it planning to attack Hawkeye?"

Hearing the surrounding chatter, Sieg's heart skipped a beat, and the questions in his mind almost overwhelmed him.

Was Hawkeye recruited by Bucky? Could Bucky also have a connection with Hawkeye and be here to save the day?

Sig didn't think Hawkeye would do such a thing.

However, Sieg didn't have much time to think.

The next moment, he suddenly felt a pair of eyes looking at him, and his skin felt like it was being cut by knives.

Looking up, I was met with a pair of sharp eyes, like those of a hawk, gazing across the sea.

Bang bang bang bang bang bang bang bang!

The Emperor's engine roared uncontrollably, bursting forth from its body and almost forming a continuous roar!

He's looking at me!

It seems the person Hawkeye is looking for isn't Bucky, but me!

But this... shouldn't be! Surely my reputation as the Mountain Bandit King shouldn't be known even to Hawkeye?

The bandits around Sig turned pale and involuntarily retreated.

The instant Hawkeye looked over, they could feel the immense, terrifying pressure emanating from their leader, as if he were confronting Hawkeye from afar.

One of them had a cold expression and sharp, eagle-like eyes.

One person had an indifferent expression, with eyes as deep as the ocean.

Chapter 114 First Encounter with Hawkeye

I'm Sig, and I'm in a complete panic right now.

Why does Hawkeye look so eager to try? And why is he touching Black Blade Night's back again?

Sieg has always been very self-aware.

He now boasts an astronomical bounty, holding the title of the most wanted criminal in the entire East China Sea, and his fame spreads throughout the East China Sea without any difficulty.

Higuma's bounty is high because he attacked a Celestial Dragon, which angered the World Government.

As for Siegfried's record, the world can only speculate.

The CP0 affair is a secret, and the fact that Garp was killed by a traitor in the Navy who was close to Higash with an axe is an even bigger secret!

Sig knew that these speculations were not enough to attract the attention of the true powerhouses of the Grand Line.

But why...Hawkeye? He's someone who can rival Shanks, sitting atop the throne of the world's number one swordsman!

"The Navy specifically recruited Hawkeye just to deal with me? That's giving me way too much credit!"

Sieg was filled with questions, but all his thoughts were extinguished after Hawkeye glanced at him.

Another death stare!

As the two gazed at each other from afar, dark clouds gradually drifted into the sky...

"Hawkeye!"

As Sieg trembled with fear, a cold shout came from a distant warship.

Rear Admiral Onigumo stood on the bow deck, gazing at Hawkeye with an extremely solemn expression.

"Hawkeye, what are you doing here?"

Onigumo's forehead was also covered in beads of sweat.

In this era, the Seven Warlords of the Sea system is newly established, and the Navy has not yet figured out how to deal with this renowned pirate.

But Onigumo knew that the Seven Warlords of the Sea were not subordinates of the World Government, but rather had a relationship of mutual exploitation and checks and balances.

The Seven Warlords of the Sea only need to comply with mandatory conscription during special periods and pay a certain amount of money; the World Government cannot restrain them in any other way.

Hawkeye's presence here is a huge variable for the Navy; it's hard to say whether he's friend or foe.

After Onigumo finished speaking, Hawkeye finally looked away, which made Sig breathe a huge sigh of relief.

Hawkeye shifted his gaze and glanced indifferently at Onigumo on the naval warship.

"Nothing much, do as you please."

After saying that, Hawkeye crossed his legs, letting Xiaozhou drift along, looking like he was watching from the sidelines.

His trip to the East China Sea was partly motivated by the search for Sig.

But would the world's greatest swordsman take the initiative to challenge Sigurd, whom he had just met?

That's not the case.

However, if Sieg displays swordsmanship that meets his expectations, he might change his mind.

"The swordsman that Shanks specifically mentioned, let me see if you are qualified to fight me."

Hawkeye's lips curled up slightly, his eyes filled with anticipation.

As for the seemingly massive naval fleet, Hawkeye didn't take it seriously.

"Hawkeye doesn't seem to be planning to make a move..."

Onigumo couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief, but after thinking for a moment, he still gave the order:

"Report Hawkeye's appearance immediately."

"The fleet should turn its cannons around and continue attacking Sig and Bucky the Clown!"

Although interrupted by the appearance of the colossal sea king and Hawkeye, the two pirate ships remained within the encirclement.

After a brief silence, the second round of shelling began!

Boom boom boom!

Amidst the continuous roar of cannon fire, a medium-sized warship from the Marine Headquarters gradually approached Buggy's pirate ship.

"Tina was helpless. Major General Onigumo actually made me deal with an unknown nobody."

Lieutenant Colonel Tina stood on the deck, looking somewhat helplessly at Buggy's pirate ship not far away.

"You're under arrest, Bucky the Clown! Black Shot Barrage!"

In his palm, the black spear shot out once again along with a barrage of cannonballs, hurtling towards Buggy's pirate ship!

"shit!"

Bucky stared wide-eyed at the incoming artillery shells and black iron spears, a sense of despair washing over him.

The appearances of the Sea King and Hawkeye had given him the mistaken belief that he had a chance to escape.

But now it seems...

"No, is the pirate journey of the great Captain Buggy coming to an end here?"

Just as Pakistan was filled with despair, a second volley of shells came crashing down.

Beneath the sea surface, another rapidly expanding dark shadow appeared.

"There are still more?"

Did Hawkeye accidentally disturb the lair of the sea kings in the calm zone?

Everyone was taken aback.

This time, it's different from the Sea King that Hawkeye killed.

This time, the huge black shadow was located right in the center of the battlefield!

Slide!

The sea surface surged up once again, and amidst the white waves, another enormous creature quickly emerged!

To everyone's surprise once again, what surfaced this time was a boulder as large as a mountain!

No... it's not a rock as big as a mountain, it's actually a stone island emerging from the water!
