I the King of bandits of the East Sea

Changing the era...

When Sig made such a bold declaration, the pirates, as well as Doflamingo, who was observing from the shadows, were deep in thought.

In this world, there was no shortage of madmen who sought to change the era.

And based on Sig's performance at the execution platform in Loguetown, he certainly seemed like the kind of lunatic who thrived on chaos.

However, someone still raised a question.

"Then why did you sell the treasure map to the Celestial Dragons?"

"If the Celestial Dragons obtain your treasure, wouldn't the era you want to change never come to pass?"

A mysterious smile appeared on Sig's face.

"Isn't that... interesting?"

Sig said lightly.

"Interesting?"

Under the bewildered gazes of the crowd, Sig glanced down at the treasure map in his hand.

"Whether the Celestial Dragons or you pirates find the treasure first will determine whether the new era will usher in its dawn."

"I've already bet Another Piece on the new era."

"This is the last remaining treasure map, representing the dawn of the new era. 150 million berries, no bargaining."

Sig declared.

He's truly a madman... to use his own treasure as a bet...

This thought crossed the minds of everyone present.

By now, those who had participated in the auction no longer doubted the authenticity of the treasure map.

After all, the Celestial Dragon Charloss's unbridled desire for the treasure map had been unmistakable.

"150 million berries?"

Most of the pirates were deep in thought, their eyes gleaming with dangerous light.

150 million berries was no small sum.

Pirates weren't the type to save money, and the vast majority of them couldn't afford such an amount.

They hadn't even considered obtaining the treasure map through normal bidding.

The kind of people attracted by a great treasure like Another Piece were either penniless or ambitious figures like Doflamingo, who coveted the secrets of the Celestial Dragons.

"150 million berries, I'll take it!"

After a moment of silence, a grim-looking middle-aged man finally stepped forward.

This man wore white gloves and carried a large bag of money.

"Someone's actually willing to buy the treasure map?"

"After all, Sig is a notorious pirate with a 400 million berry bounty. If money can solve the problem, there's no need to risk your life..."

"I recognize him. He's a pirate from the North Blue, the 80 million berry bounty pirate, Miro, the 'Swordsman's Bane'..."

"It's said he's defeated countless swordsmen and is known as the bane of all swordsmen. He's extremely ruthless!"

"The swordsmen he defeats—not only are their bodies destroyed, but their swords are also completely ruined!"

The pirates stirred, murmuring among themselves.

The dangerous glint in their eyes grew stronger.

This was the street, not the auction house.

Moreover, the elite forces of Loguetown had been diverted due to the Celestial Dragons...

At this moment, the only one with the strength and reputation to somewhat keep these pirates in check was Sig.

They were wary of Sig's strength, but this Miro, who also had a notable reputation...

Amidst the murmurs.

Miro, carrying the bag of money, walked step by step toward Sig.

Further away.

"How interesting."

Doflamingo, observing from the shadows, wore a mocking smile.

"An 80 million berry 'Swordsman's Bane'? Perhaps he can be used to test Sig, who's capable of facing the world's greatest swordsman..."

Doflamingo silently laughed, his fingers releasing several transparent strings that quickly shot out and attached themselves to Miro, who had already reached Sig.

As a user of the Ito Ito no Mi (String-String Fruit), Doflamingo could manipulate others like puppets using his strings.

At this moment, Miro was just about to hand the bag of money to one of Sig's subordinates while reaching for the treasure map in the hands of another.

Suddenly, Miro's body stiffened. The bag of money fell to the ground as he stepped forward, kicking the mountain bandit aside and snatching the treasure map.

"What's going on? My body moved on its own!"

Miro was both shocked and furious.

This sudden move was completely against his will.

"These pirates really are up to no good, daring to steal from me."

Despite his anger, facing the 80 million berry "Swordsman's Bane," Sig felt a bit uneasy.

But with his current reputation, if he let his subordinate get kicked and the treasure map stolen right in front of him, his image as the Mountain Bandit King would crumble instantly, which would be even more dangerous.

"Bring me my sword!"

Sig said softly.

A chainsaw landed firmly in his hands.

The bald man, who had been holding the chainsaw and standing guard nearby, had of course thrown it over at the first opportunity.

"Wait... I have no intention of fighting you!"

Miro looked innocent, but when he saw the treasure map in his hands, greed flashed in his eyes.

Though he didn't fully understand what was happening, the treasure map was already in his grasp... Why worry about the details?

Miro turned and immediately tried to flee.

But the moment he turned his back to Sig and the others...

Morgan's breathing suddenly quickened.

When he saw Miro's back, an intense desire surged within him, like a bee drawn to a swaying flower, completely irresistible.

By the time he regained his senses...

A streak of blood blossomed on Miro's back. The pirate, who had only taken a step or two, stumbled.

He turned to look.

A burly, golden-haired man stood there, holding a blood-stained axe, his expression seemingly... intoxicated?

"Hehehe..."

A strange laugh escaped Morgan's lips.

"Morgan again... Really, stabbing someone in the back right in front of everyone."

Sig glanced at the long, narrow wound on Miro's back, his eyes lighting up.

With Morgan's axe strike buying some time, Sig finally managed to turn on the chainsaw.

Vroom vroom vroom vroom.

Amidst the spine-chilling sound of the chainsaw, Sig stood expressionless, holding the chainsaw.

Beside him stood Morgan, holding a blood-stained axe, chuckling eerily.

This scene sent a chill down the spines of even these ruthless pirates.

"He's truly a madman... Let's get out of here."

Despite being struck by the axe, Miro had no intention of turning back to fight. He took a step forward, ready to flee.

But then, his body lost control again, stiffly turning around and charging straight toward Sig.

"Why run? Go test Sig some more..."

"A chainsaw? This is truly interesting."

Doflamingo continued to laugh silently, his fingers moving slightly as he forcibly manipulated Miro to turn back and charge at Sig.
