"I really didn't expect to see you here again. By the way, why didn't I see your vice-captain?"
"Oh, I almost forgot, the guy named Vernon had his head chopped off by the boss."
"Until he died, he still held the box in his arms tightly. He was so loyal. It's a pity that he followed the wrong person and accepted a loser as the captain. Tsk tsk~"
"You're looking for death!"
"Vice Captain Vernon's debt will be repaid with your blood later!"
"That's right, after so long, I finally found you bastards who only take advantage of others' danger to bully those who are in power. No one can escape today!"
. . . . . . .
The two groups of people who had their own hatred happened to be sitting next to each other by coincidence. Except for the captains on both sides who were still sitting in their seats, the rest of their men stood up in a tense manner, with red faces and wide eyes, wishing they could be killed right now. other side.
What kept them from taking action was naturally the attitude of their captain.
Because both captains know that whoever acts first will be eliminated.
Don’t forget, where is this place?
What would be the result of causing trouble in Doflamingo's auction house?
Even if you pay the 'protection fee', you still won't be able to get out alive.
Why do they think so?
Because a killing intent that made their hair stand on end has locked onto them!
It was a handsome young man wearing a suit with two knives and a gun on his waist.
At this moment, the other party was staring at them, and at some point, his right hand had been lightly placed on the handle of the knife.
This gave them an illusion.
As long as the two of them can't control the people under their control, both of them will be killed as soon as the fight begins.
That's why the two of them remained silent when their subordinates were arguing so fiercely.
"The Don Quixote family is really not simple!"
After the idea came to them at the same time, they both decided not to get themselves into trouble.
Even if you want to fight, go out and fight.
"Shut up, everyone!"
"Silence!"
The two captains spoke almost at the same time, but what people didn't expect was that they were both scolding their own people.
The two of them looked at each other and understood what each other meant.
After the auction is over, let’s fight to the death!
"pity."
Abel let go of the handle of the knife and continued to inspect the scene.
After the farce ended, the auction house also returned to calm.
After a short wait, today's auction finally started.
Although what Doflamingo really cares about is the auction of artificial devil fruits, the previous appetizers are also essential.
In addition, the items auctioned this time were all high-quality products collected by the family, so the atmosphere gradually became heated.
Until the end, during the host's grand introduction, the artificial Devil Fruit Smile was finally presented to the stage.
Of course, not ten, but only four.
"What is placed in front of everyone now is the lifelong research result of a certain super genius scientist, artificial devil fruit.'smile'!"
"Yes, you heard me right, it not only looks similar, it is indeed a Devil Fruit, but it was made!"
As soon as these words came out, although the people present had already received the news, they still caused an uproar.
After all, if this thing is true, it will definitely change the current situation.
Because artificial means continuous output and controllability!
No one can resist the temptation to turn all of his subordinates into Devil Fruit users!
"Impossible, I don't believe it!"
"Yeah, devil fruits can actually be made artificially? It's like a joke!"
"What do you have to prove that this thing works?"
Some people immediately began to question it, and they didn't know whether there was any agent arranged by Doflamingo in advance.
Under the pressure of everyone, the host on the stage wiped the sweat from his forehead and shouted loudly while telling everyone to calm down.
But he has no strength at all.
At this moment, Doflamingo's voice suddenly sounded.
"Since some people don't believe it, let's verify it on the spot!"
Doflamingo came to the stage from behind the scenes.
In an instant, the venue suddenly became quiet.
The host quickly took over the conversation and said, "Bring people up."
Under the gaze of everyone, three people in a row, two men and one woman, all came to the stage in handcuffs, their eyes full of fear of the unknown.
"These three people are all ordinary humans who have never eaten devil fruits. They are wearing handcuffs made of seastone."
"If anyone doubts it, please come and verify it."
"Or if anyone among you is willing to personally try the effects of this artificial devil fruit, you can also sign up."
"But let me state in advance that taking the artificial devil fruit 'smile' has certain side effects. There is a small chance that the awakening will fail. The loser will always become a smiley face."
"So please be careful whether you want to verify it yourself."
. . . . . .
As soon as these words came out, those who were eager to have sex for free calmed down.
It's not 100% successful?
But then I thought about it, and it seemed more real.
And the side effects of this failure are actually nothing.
Just let them know that this is what 'smile' means.
"I'll check it out."
"whispering sound!"
Amidst the cheers of many people, a man walked onto the stage without caring and began to check the status of the three slaves and the sea-floor stone handcuffs.
When he touched the sea-floor stone handcuffs with his hand, his expression suddenly changed, and he quickly retracted his hand and took two steps back.
Then he checked the status of these people and confirmed that none of them were affected by the sea-floor stone handcuffs.
This basically confirms that these are indeed ordinary people who have never eaten devil fruits.
"How about this sir?"
"no problem."
"Let me take a look!"
Although someone checked it, it was still not convincing, so one after another people went out to check the situation.
The final result is indeed fine.
Only in this way can everyone believe it.
As for trying it yourself and being a guinea pig for others.
So far, no one wants to.
Upon seeing this, the host continued: "Now that we have determined that there are no problems with the personnel, let's start witnessing the miracle!"
"You, eat it."
The host said coldly to Slave No. 1.
And just as Slave No. 1 tremblingly picked up the artificial Devil Fruit, someone suddenly shouted, "Let No. 2 eat it!"
After being stunned for a while, many people understood what this guy was thinking and started shouting for someone else.
The host said nonchalantly to Slave No. 2, the only woman: "You eat."
Upon hearing this, Slave No. 1 immediately stuffed the fruit into the hands of Slave No. 2 as if he had been granted amnesty, as if he had escaped death.
Slave No. 2 had no choice but to grit his teeth and stuff the fruit into his mouth.
