In the world of pirates, there are not only the navy and pirates, but also intricate underground forces throughout the world.
The Don Quixote family has an underground trading place in the South China Sea, where they engage in illegal activities such as drugs, human trafficking, and selling murder weapons.
And he often hosts auctions of devil fruits.
On the black market, even a very useless Devil Fruit can be auctioned for a high price. The transaction price of a Devil Fruit is never less than 100 million Baileys.
The low price of the natural devil fruit that will be auctioned in a few days is 300 million beli.
"Have you heard? A natural devil fruit appeared on the black market recently."
"What natural fruit? If I could eat it, wouldn't I be able to become a big pirate in an instant?"
"Haha, stop dreaming. You still want to eat a natural devil fruit. I don't think you can even see what it looks like."
"The damn Don Quixote family won't let us in. I want to go in and have a look. If I can't afford it, why can't I take a look?"
"That's a natural devil fruit, just take a look at it."
"If you speak softly, the Don Quixote family will kill us if they hear you."
"But it's not entirely the Don Quixote family's fault. After all, there are too many pirates coming to participate in the black market auction."
"Most people come to see the excitement. Only a very few people can afford to buy that Devil Fruit, such as the big pirates who came back from the New World."
"But I didn't see the Devil Fruit, so I was a little bit reluctant."
"Okay, okay, the pirates who come to participate in the black market auction this time are all pirates with a bounty of more than 100 million beli. Pirates with a bounty of less than 100 million beli can't even get in."
"Little pirates like us can only watch the excitement from the outside. If we get too close, we will get killed."
"Damn it, one day I will become a big pirate too."
...
At this time, Jiang Feng was standing on the deck of the navy warship, looking towards the South China Sea.
"If the natural fruit falls into the hands of the navy, the navy will definitely have another newcomer with general-level potential."
"Akainu, Kizaru, and Aokiji are about to be promoted to generals now. I know their personalities and abilities very well, so I can grasp their future arrangements.
"But if there is a new general in the navy, it will be hard to say."
"It's okay to have the same personality as Aokiji, but if he has the same personality as Akainu, then my plan won't work."
"No, we can't let the navy get it, but we can't let the pirates get it either."
"It would be best if I could cross the sky and hold this Devil Fruit in my hands."
"It's really difficult..."
"Boy Maple, what are you thinking about standing on the deck?"
Hearing Garp's voice, Jiang Feng put away his thoughts and turned around, looking at Garp.
At this time, Garp had a relaxed look on his face, holding donuts in his hand and eating them non-stop, without any sense of nervousness about the impending war.
"Boy Feng, you have been so worried all day long. Are you thinking of any bad ideas again?"
Garp looked like he had seen through Jiang Feng, pointed at him with the donut and said.
The corner of Jiang Feng's mouth twitched and he thought to himself: "You really guessed it, but I won't tell you."
"Uncle Garp, how could I have a bad idea? It's not like you don't know how much I love the Navy."
Hearing Jiang Feng's words, Garp choked and the donuts in his mouth spurted out. He looked at Jiang Feng with a black line on his face, "You..."
"Uncle Garp, our navy should have deployed a lot of combat power this time!"
"Of course, this time the three natural fruit ability users were dispatched, and I came with them. As for Warring States and Zefa, they didn't come. They are staying at the navy headquarters to take charge of the headquarters."
"A group of hateful pirates have gathered together brazenly. We must catch them all this time."
"There are also those pirates who came back from the New World. I want to beat them away."
"Is it possible to catch them all in one fell swoop?" Jiang Feng thought.
"Although the three future generals are dispatched this time, plus Garp and tens of thousands of marines, the lineup is even more terrifying than the last demon-slaying order."
"But those pirates are not fools, just waiting for the navy to catch them."
Jiang Feng looked at Garp with confusion, wanting to know the navy's arrangements for this operation.
"Uncle Garp, we know where they are, and they should have guessed that we are going there!"
"Yes, the navy from the Nanhai branch has already rushed over. They are relatively close and should be able to arrive soon."
"The branch's navy will stop them first. We just need to rush over as soon as possible to support them."
"So that's it."
After listening to Garp's explanation, Jiang Feng understood that the pirates participating in the black market auction were now on the island.
The navy of the Nanhai branch will arrive before the pirates leave the island and stop them. Although the branch's troops cannot catch all the pirates in one go, they can still stop them for a period of time.
The branch's navy only needs to hold off these pirates and wait for support from the headquarters.
"I don't know how long the branch can last with its strength. We have to rush over as soon as possible."
Garp showed a rare serious expression and said.
...
The South China Sea is located in a sea area more than ten kilometers away from the island where the black market auction is held.
There is a pirate ship parked in the sea. This pirate ship is the pirate ship of the Don Quixote family.
"Dover, you are still smart. You knew that the navy would come to surround the island and let us leave early. However, it is a pity that the force that has been operating for so many years suddenly gave up."
Torrebol, who was standing behind Doflamingo and holding a cane with the plum blossom symbol, said with a look of pity on his face.
""
"It doesn't matter. It will be fine if the forces are reorganized. What matters to me is the natural devil fruit."
"A good show is about to begin. Once someone takes a photo of a devil fruit, let the people at the venue notify me and spread the news."
",It's really interesting."
"A group of pirates who don't know what they are called are waiting for the arrival of the navy!"
"The pirates who have obtained the Devil Fruit should be able to break out of the navy's siege. It won't be too late for us to set off by then."
"Hahaha"
Behind Doflamingo, a strong man wearing armor made a high-pitched voice that made people want to laugh, but there was no laughter on the pirate ship.
The strong man is wearing armor and has a cross-faced helmet on his head. He is tall and has wavy hair.
"Dover, who should I give this natural fruit to?"
"Pika, everyone in my family has already eaten devil fruits."
"After getting this natural fruit, I plan to find a family member. What do you think?"
"Dover, I won't object to anything you want to do."
Pika made another high-pitched sound that was seriously inconsistent with her figure.
