Because he happened to run into the Golden Lion, Sig changed his plans and didn't tell Gage much about the hunting party two days later.

Otherwise, Gage would definitely be suspicious. If Shiki sent Sig, why would he discuss this matter with him? Wouldn't Shiki come to him personally later?

Sig currently merely presenting a "story" from the perspective of a Spectator, planting seeds of distrust and skepticism about Silver Axe's motives in the hearts of both sides. He hopes these seeds will blossom and bear fruit...

"Oh, and there's one more thing I need to remind Mr. Gage... The heart of the Silver Axe is hidden in this castle." Sig said this before leaving.

Judging from Gage's reaction, Sig knew that Gage naturally assumed it was a message relayed to him by Golden Lion, and while he was intrigued, he also questioned Golden Lion's motives...

After leaving Gage, Sig did not return to the tavern—this was something he had discussed with Boss Fisher Tiger beforehand, to prevent Gage from becoming completely in cahoots with Silver Axe and following Sig!

Sig originally wanted to stay in the castle a little longer to see if there was any opportunity to borrow someone else's identity and continue "telling stories" to others.

However, they encountered Sitoon's crew midway through the journey—they didn't recognize Sig at first glance, nor did they pay much attention to him, but they did give Sig a heads-up.

For safety's sake, Sig quietly left the castle, wandered around the City of Sighs, gathering information and buying some "trinkets," before quietly departing towards the port...

Although the City of Sighs is currently off-limits to ordinary people, its security is not particularly tight. After all, Silver Axe was unaware that Fish-Man had remained in the City of Sighs.

Sig easily made a name for himself with his "charisma"...

After finding a random corner in the harbor and resting for the night, Sig spent the next day gathering information in the harbor before discovering Ponlrick —although he still didn't know his name, Sig knew that this man was the Silver Axe's steward.

Upon seeing Ponlrick arrive at the port with a group of people, seemingly waiting for someone, Sig had a vague guess in his mind. He didn't approach any further, but quietly left, went into the sea from the nearby shore, and swam in the direction Ponlrick was looking!

Before long, they discovered naval warships—indeed, the castle's steward had come to greet the navy!

Sig, in human form and wearing a "trinket" he'd casually bought in town, quietly approached the flagship and then climbed onto the deck along the outer armor...

During this time, Sig realized that someone was watching him with a sense of "warning," indicating that someone had already discovered his whereabouts.

Sig himself didn't intend to remain undetected!

Momousagi looked at the masked man in front of her with suspicion. He had swaggered onto her boat and didn't seem to waver at all even after seeing her. Momousagi was puzzled.

"CP0?" Momousagi asked, looking at the other person's strange mask.

This CP0... seems a bit weak, probably not a key combatant.

The mask seems a bit simple? The art style also seems different from other CP0 masks...

However, it was precisely because of this suspicion that Momousagi deliberately moved the other Marines away and waited for him to come up here.

After Sig climbed up, he was able to see the female officer in front of him clearly.

A pink deep-V short-sleeved top, almost completely covered by black shorts, revealing exceptionally fair skin that, while not smooth, appeared remarkably soft.

Its temperament is not sharp, but rather gives people a gentle and mild feeling...

However, Sig could see that a beast lurked within her.

At the same time, Sig also noticed her doubts—if she hadn't just been doubtful, but rather expressed a firm belief that he was an imposter, Sig would have jumped into the sea to escape halfway.

It was the other party's doubt that emboldened Sig to slowly climb up.

It is indeed very dangerous. After all, it is much more difficult for Spectator or Telepathist to weave a story than for a writer.

"Momousagi Vice Admiral, Commander Spandine asked me to remind you of something... From now on, on Axe Island, please be sure to prioritize the World Government's orders!" Sig said solemnly.

"What do you mean?" Momousagi, even more confused.

She only believed Sig's identity to a certain extent, after all... it was just a broken mask!

The reason I was half convinced was because of Sig's "swaggering" manner. No normal person would wear a tattered mask and impersonate a CP0 officer in front of Marine Vice Admiral!

"Just remember that." Sig coldly, offering no further explanation.

Momousagi's trust in his identity gradually increased because... Sig showed no intention of leaving and seemed prepared to follow her to Aix.

"Of course, this is my mission too... It should be the same as CP0's mission, right?" Momousagi agreed first, then tentatively asked a question.

This statement wasn't a test of Sig's identity, but rather a test of CP0's purpose!

At that moment Sig gritted his teeth, removed his mask, and said with a stern face, "No, I never said that. I represent CP0." He then threw the mask down.

Momousagi was initially angry, but a gentle expression appeared on her face as she said understandingly, "That's right, no one from CP0 has come to see me."

She also understood what "CP0 bastards" meant: they didn't want to give orders directly to the Navy—CP0 didn't have the authority to give orders to the Navy either. They just relied on being loyal dogs of the Celestial Dragons. CP0, and even the various levels of CP Organization, had been interfering with the Navy for a long time!

However, the other party clearly does not want the serious consequences of "CP0 interfering with naval missions," but has issued a warning to Momousagi from a personal perspective.

Sig secretly sensed how terrifying Momousagi was...

If I didn't activate my Observation Haki and relied solely on my naked eyes to read emotions from micro-expressions, I would definitely be fooled by Momousagi's acting skills and think she's an easy woman to manipulate.

However, through his Observation Haki, Sig already "saw" himself being torn to pieces by her!

"Would you like a drink before we arrive in Aix?" Momousagi asked Sig with a smile.

"No need, I need to rest by myself. Vice Admiral Momousagi, please make yourself at home." After saying Sig, Sieg turned and went into the Captain.

Momousagi:!!!

Momousagi had little doubt about Sig's identity anymore, only retaining an instinctive wariness.

Such an arrogant "occupation" of the captain's Captain, ignoring my invitation—can this not be CP0?

At this moment, some naval personnel noticed the situation and approached Momousagi for instructions...

"You don't need to worry about it!" Momousagi didn't say anything more to the others.

Before long, Momousagi could see Axe Island.

After docking at the port of Axe Island, Sig swaggered off the ship with Momousagi.

When Ponlrick saw that Sig was with the navy, he couldn't help but look surprised.

Momousagi noticed this too— Ponlrick knew this person? Sure enough, the CP0 members had already met Silver Axe!

"I'll go back and report to that lord first," Sig said cryptically, then ignored Momousagi and Ponlrick's reactions and left.
