Eric checked the money at the door of the auction venue and distributed a bidding sign.
"It's quite formal, and it even includes capital verification." Eric said with a smile, "It's more formal than the auction of the family in Shampoo Islands..."
Kuangzo said casually: "Because it is the territory of Donquixote Doflamingo in the Shichibukai, few people will go to cause trouble. But here it is different, it is even more mixed."
As a result, not long after entering the venue, there was a noise outside the door.
"Asshole! We traveled by sea for half a month, but we weren't even allowed in!"
"Sorry everyone, because the value of the goods in this auction is too high, there is a temporary rule that only customers with more than one million Baileys are allowed to enter."
"Don't you look down on us?!" It seems that this guy is also a pirate and is determined to make a fortune in this auction.
"..." The guard at the door just gave him a smile, with an expression of "I just look down on you" on his face.
"I'll kill you!" The pirate opposite pulled out the knife hanging from his waist and slashed at the guard.
He takes action whenever he disagrees, very much like a pirate, and has the IQ of an average pirate.
"Boom!" It was not an ordinary gunshot, but a roar like a small cannon.
When the gun smoke dissipated, the pirates who were there were nowhere to be seen and were blown away to the opposite wall.
As expected of a pirate who was famous for being able to withstand beatings, his body was not completely smashed to pieces on the spot when such a powerful giant gun hit him.
"Boss!"
The younger men rushed over, grabbed their boss off the wall, and checked the captain's injury.
"Boss!" There was another miserable cry. It seemed that there was no hope of saving his boss. The angry younger brothers took out their weapons one after another, as if they were infected with mad cow disease, and leaned over with red eyes.
"Bang bang bang!" The guards who had been prepared raised their flintlock rifles and lined up to shoot.
No matter how high your martial arts skills are, you are still afraid of rifles. Especially when the strength is low, guns and cannons are still very threatening to people's lives. Of course, if a master uses a firearm, the threat level will also be greatly increased.
Many people became pirates because they couldn't survive being exploited by the king's nobles, and guns were far more expensive than ordinary swords, so they couldn't afford them. Therefore, most pirates usually carry a machete and robbing homes, easily coercing ordinary people to hand over all their belongings.
But in front of the wealthy auction house, swords are not enough to see. By the way, we can educate the poor people about the power of krypton gold.
More than a dozen boys fell under the orange-red bullet net, and a pirate group was destroyed.
Eric used [Xinwang] to capture the small commotion outside the auction, and didn't care at all. Pirates were used to being tyrannical on the sea, and if they didn't have the foresight to run into trouble, they would be courting death. Instead, they were not interested in what would happen next. very interested.
The big guys sitting at the front of the venue didn't care either. They sat sprawled out on the high-end seats. The noise from the venue covered up the noise outside.
'Seeing so many people coming in, well, I want to rob again. 'In Eric's eyes, these people are all walking million Baileys, and Eric's eyes became the shape of Bailey.
"That's..." [Xinwang] accidentally captured a CP0 in a white coat.
"Damn it, it's still here." Eric felt in his heart that something bad would happen if he met this guy.
…
The auction started soon, and the auction items were brought to the stage one after another. The transaction price was not less than one million beli, and almost all of them were high-quality products.
Eric and everyone sat in the audience and ate the whole thing. At least they were not interested in the jewelry and famous swords on the stage.
As time goes by, the time to bid for an item becomes longer and longer, and the items get better as time goes by. Often two rich people compete to raise the price, with no intention of letting go. The host His face turned into chrysanthemums with laughter.
But there will always be one party that exceeds their own psychological price and has no choice but to give up the product.
But at least there is no slave auction here. It is estimated that only the Chambord Islands dare to auction slaves openly.
After nearly two hours of auction, we finally came to the last item.
"Well everyone, next is the grand finale of this auction—a Devil Fruit!"
The host stirred up the atmosphere of the scene again, and everyone cheered up. Most of the pirates came here for this fruit.
Colored lights began to flash, spotlights moving around and then focusing the light into the center of the stage.
A platform slowly rose from the newly opened hole in the center of the stage. Under a semicircular transparent glass cover, there was a strange earth-yellow fruit.
"As we all know, if you eat a Devil Fruit, you will be cursed by the sea and become a landlubber who cannot swim. But you all know that the three current sea emperors are all Devil Fruit users!"
"And the type of this devil fruit belongs to the superhuman type. Although the specific ability is not clear, but! Two of the three sea emperors have superhuman abilities!"
"I wonder if everyone here has the guts to eat this devil fruit with unknown abilities and become a strong man competing for the fourth Sea Emperor in the future?!"
The host avoided the most important thing and raised this Devil Fruit to the level of the Three Emperors. You know, even if the Devil Fruit is not used, Whitebeard, Big Mom and Kaido will definitely become strong ones. The Devil Fruit is just the icing on the cake at best.
And you pirates need help in times of need!
When the many pirates on the field heard the title of "The Fourth Emperor of the Sea", their eyes suddenly glowed green, and greed was fully displayed on their faces, looking like wild wolves.
It's okay to call them wolves. Aren't they just like wolves on the sea? If they get an opportunity, they will rush forward and take a bite. If they succeed, they will carry out crazy plundering. If they fail, they will flee in defeat.
The moment the long-secret Devil Fruit appeared, the CP0 he saw last time in the food city (even the mask and clothes were still the same as that day) stood up and left. The surgical fruit he was looking for was in the illustrated book. I've seen it before, it's a red heart-shaped fruit, completely different from this one.
"Huh~" After observing him leaving the door of the auction, Eric breathed a sigh of relief. It turned out that his purpose was not himself, but looking for a specific devil fruit. It turned out that the type of fruit was the same as what he wanted. The type you are looking for does not match.
Eric decided to reduce the number of exposures to the government, especially the government's intelligence agencies, and work hard to accumulate strength. When it appears in front of the government again, the world government can only stare at its own strength.
"The starting price is 100 million beli! So, start bidding now!"
"I'll go first! One hundred and thirty million! Let those poor devils get out of the way!"
"This man No. 1 offers 130 million beli!"
"Hmph, one hundred and forty million beli! You're not very rich either."
"The man No. 7 offered 140 million beli!"
The fierce bidding mode started as soon as it came up. The price shouted out made many spectators blush and their hearts beat. The price soon exceeded 200 million beli.
Kurumi suddenly discovered a problem at this moment: "Those pirates who are staring at the green light of the Devil Fruit don't seem to have any intention of bidding."
Chiron continued: "That's not all, they are even secretly looking at the customers who are bidding."
"Not only do they want to rob the Devil Fruit, but they also seem to want to rob the bidding customers of their money. Hehe, there are quite a few people who think this way."
"Anyway...there's something good to watch~"
(The fourth and fifth updates are at 6pm and 8pm, if you have something to do in the afternoon)
