The live stream on March 1st almost got the veteran bird wanted by the World Government...
Fortunately, Toriyama had prepared in advance. If the World Government really turned against him, not only would they not be able to catch him, but he would also expose more evidence of his crimes. Originally, this "preparation" was only because Toriyama understood that broadcasting the Four Emperors' agreement might cause public dissatisfaction with the World Government, and thus he would be used as a scapegoat by the World Government, rather than expecting Sig to pull such a stunt!
Given the threat posed and the fact that Toriyama had a history of bribing World Government officials, the World Government, believing that Toriyama was also under control and not intentionally assisting a certain Sea King, did not completely eradicate the WEC. Instead, they imposed a hefty fine and confiscated a large number of Den Den Mushi.
In addition... the veteran was also forced to sign a contract to use his own News Bird communications network to deliver daily messages to the Navy.
As for Sig, he completed the Promotion Ceremony smoothly.
Although the people whose emotions were guided by Sig were of different identities and had completely different emotions, and it had nothing to do with any Beyonder Ability, Sig was purely relying on his expressions and words to remotely guide the emotions of others... But even so, the number of emotions Sig received from "slaves" alone far exceeded the scale of "ten thousand people"!
Even though the distance between them is vast and they are spread throughout the world, the power of this emotion is somewhat weakened in the Sea of Collective Subconscious. However, because of its sheer size, it is still enough to overcome any unfavorable factors.
In the Sea of Collective Subconscious, countless ripples, waves, and undulations converge into a raging torrent, and within this great wave, Sig's "Visionary Path" shines even brighter...
At this point, three of the rituals for Sig's promotion to Sequence 4 have been completed.
Another one is "to complete an important prophecy," and the role of "Ocean Songster" that has not yet been completed.
When leaving Hakunnos, Sig boarded the "Mom Queen's Anthem" ship directly...
Watching Sig wave goodbye and leave, Lucky Roo and Yasopp muttered to themselves – they felt that Sig probably spent less time on the Red Voss than he did "part-time" on other ships!
Since Sig was on the Mom 'Queen's Anthem, the old bird left on the spot. He didn't want to get involved with Sig anymore, lest the World Government be determined to blacklist him.
Meanwhile, three of the Four Sweet Commanders disliked him no matter what, especially Katakuri and Cracker... Only his eldest Perospero was relatively friendly to Sig, but Sig could tell that he was the one with the most ulterior motives!
Katakuri is naturally more caring towards his younger siblings and usually acts like the most "older brother".
Five and a half years earlier, at the end of 1511, Katakuri gained twelve nephews in just two months...
Katakuri is usually happy when new children are born, but if there are too many...
It's fortunate that among the sisters who gave birth to nephews, Katakuri's most beloved sister Brulee wasn't included, otherwise Katakuri might have already tied Sig up!
As for Cracker, although he was much colder in nature, one of his children was his "own" nephew, born to his sister Custard.
Katakuri and Cracker clearly had a different opinion about their "brother-in-law," Sig, regarding their eight younger sisters giving birth to twelve nephews within two months—an opinion that differed from Big Mom's!
BigMom, on the other hand, takes it all in stride. Even though she's become "pure" now, she's still a liberal with a touch of wickedness. Instead, she's thinking, "Could we have more?"... You know, these grandchildren are all exceptionally gifted!
Otherwise, BigMom wouldn't have proposed inviting Sig to "visit" for a month every year.
However, Katakuri and Cracker were not interested in this at all. Instead, they wanted their sister, or rather, their sisters, to get rid of this bastard as soon as possible!
As for Perospero and Smoker, both members of the Four Sweet Commanders, the former shares her Mom's views and is also a pragmatist. At least Big Mom isn't pressuring her children to marry, while Perospero even wants to actively try and matchmake her sisters with Sig...
As for the latter, she once harbored a lot of resentment towards Sig —after all, she was the first person Sig had provoked, or even flirted with, and the result was...
Although Smoker didn't actually like Siegfried or Vladimir, and it had nothing to do with jealousy, she did have a strange feeling of resentment at one point... until Katakuri reminded her!
Smoker then realized—this must be Siegfried's feigned indifference... As expected of the Sea King, his methods are truly brilliant!
Having seen through this layer, Smoker returned to a state of "disinterest" with Sig.
Therefore, Smoker was no longer too concerned about Siegfried being on the ship; she was just slightly annoyed by the guy...
Smoker had even decided that if Siegfried tried to provoke her again before meeting the other sisters, she would Record his disgraceful behavior and then broadcast it publicly in Whole Cake Island!
Only...
Smoker's idea was good, however...
After boarding the Sig, Zieg didn't pay much attention to her, exchanging only a few casual pleasantries before ignoring the barbed words in her reply.
And it's not the kind of "ignoring" that's pretentious, but rather... the feeling of "not having time to care"!
Indeed, after arriving on the Mom 'Queen's Anthem, Sig clearly had someone he wanted to get close to, but it wasn't Smoker, it was Katakuri.
Sig needs to learn from Katakuri the Observation Haki that allows him to briefly "Future Sight."
Even if Sig's Observation Haki doesn't reach that level in this respect, it doesn't matter!
Once you understand the underlying principles, it will definitely be useful...
After a few days, Smoker also realized that Sig was particularly interested in Katakuri, while everyone else... was just a nobody.
"Do you usually like to hide weapons inside your body? What a coincidence..."
"By the way, your weapon is called Earth Dragon, right? I can help you adjust the alloy formula."
"It won't change the weight, but it will make it stronger and sharper. How about that?"
"Do you know the origin of donuts? I also know a unique donut-making method from the South China Sea. When we get to Whole Cake Island..."
After discovering that Sig had begun to steadily "win over" Katakuri, Smoker's initial indifference turned into more serious questioning.
There was both self-doubt and... doubt about Katakuri.
My second brother couldn't possibly be such a green tea b*tch?
Just before Smoker was completely confused, the Mom 'Queen's Anthem returned to Whole Cake Island.
As they approached the main island of Whole Cake Island, Sig's attention began to shift away from Katakuri...
The feeling of being connected by blood has appeared, and... it's the first time it's appeared so intensely!
Before even docking at the port, Sig was greeted by his first wave of "welcome" —the Sherlock family's Mermaid sisters, Prim and Praline, came to greet him...
