Within a few days, all the famous pirates in the South China Sea rushed to the black market auction venue run by the Don Quixote family.
Many wealthy businessmen came after hearing the news. These businessmen are very rich, but have no talent for body training.
Their low strength has always been a thorn in their hearts, and they came here just to spend a lot of money to buy this natural devil fruit.
There were also many spies from the World Government mixed into the auction venue. These spies were also targeting this Devil Fruit, but they came for the World Government.
Obtaining the natural devil fruit is equivalent to gaining the combat power of a general. The Five Old Stars must also care about this matter.
In the middle of an island in the South China Sea, there is a house that looks ordinary on the outside but is magnificent on the inside.
"Ladies and gentlemen, welcome to our largest underground auction venue in the South China Sea. Here you will see many extraordinary items."
"There are sexy, cute slave girls, forbidden weapons that destroy everything, and devil fruits that can make people become strong in one place."
"I can tell you responsibly that most of the items auctioned at the underground auction house we run are prohibited items."
"why"
"Because...we are an underground auction venue."
A young man wearing a weird clown costume walked onto the stage and started to liven up the atmosphere.
"Hahaha, that's right. I like to use prohibited items. Whatever the world government prohibits, I just like it."
"Joker, start quickly, we can't wait any longer."
"I think you should stop wasting your time and go ahead and auction the natural devil fruit! I think everyone is here for this fruit."
"Let me explain first, we, the Black Tiger Pirates, are bound to get this fruit. I also hope that you will give me a piece of rice noodles."
A young man with a thin build and an ordinary face stood up, touched the saber on his waist and said.
"What about the Black Tiger Pirates? Didn't they enter the new world three years ago?"
"Black Tiger, the leader of the Black Tiger Pirates, is a big pirate with a bounty of 350 million beli. He is an animal-type ~ ancient species ~ black-spotted tiger fruit power user. His physical skills are extremely powerful. It is said that he once defeated
Where is the rear admiral?"
"Goricho is a swordsman and a great pirate with a bounty of over 200 million. His bounty is 240 million beli."
"But why didn't I see their captain?"
The words "Black Tiger Pirates" caused a commotion. Everyone looked at Goricho with different expressions, including surprise, curiosity, and admiration.
Just when everyone was surprised how the great pirate of the New World came to the auction venue.
A voice suddenly came.
"Who did I think it was? It turned out to be Gorishu. Isn't the Black Tiger Pirates amazing?"
"We, the Wizard Pirates, want this fruit."
A young man with a slightly chubby figure and a slightly bulging belly stood up and looked at Goricho with a look of disdain.
"What"
When he heard that it was the Raiders Pirates, a look of surprise first flashed in Goricho's eyes, and then he said angrily, "Watts, you are looking for death."
As if they had some grudge, the two immediately drew their swords and faced each other, glaring at each other angrily.
"You two, can you sit down for me? I'm here to buy Devil Fruits, not to watch you quarrel."
An angry scolding came from behind.
"Who is looking for death?"
Goricho and Watts looked to the back almost at the same time.
The next moment, the two of them didn't dare to say anything anymore. They looked at the person who scolded them with cold sweat, and said in a trembling voice: "Sakai... you are so good at being here."
"Hmph, I'm here for the Devil Fruit too, right?"
"Okay okay okay"
The two of them nodded quickly and smiled, then sat down and did not dare to look back.
The crew member of the Black Tiger Pirates next to Goricho asked curiously: "Boss Goricho, who is he? You look afraid of him?"
"What I'm afraid of is not him, but the person behind him. Although you have only been a pirate for a short time, you have always heard of the name Kaido!"
Goricho leaned close to the pirate's ear and whispered with fear on his face, fearing that Sakai who was not far away would hear him.
"What, Kaido, my God, it's a good thing he's not angry."
The pirate looked surprised, glanced at Sakai from the corner of his eye and said.
The clown on the stage wiped the sweat from his forehead. If the two great pirates of the New World fought here, it would be no joke. Even if he would not die in their hands, he would die in Don Quixote's hands.
In the hands of family members.
The clown adjusted his mood and said, "Everyone, the most exciting moment comes next. I think everyone will like the first auction item."
After saying that, a cage was lifted up, and the person in the cage was a stunningly beautiful woman.
The woman had a beautiful face, but her face was ashen. There was no despair or fear in her eyes, just like a walking corpse.
"Everyone has seen it. Such beautiful slaves are rare. You must seize the opportunity, especially the gentlemen sitting here."
"The starting price is one million beli, and each increase in price shall not be less than one hundred thousand beli."
"What are you waiting for? Act quickly!"
"Everyone"
"One and a half million, I want this female slave."
"1.8 million"
"Two million and four hundred thousand..."
"..."
"Next, is the Devil Fruit that everyone has been waiting for."
Hearing the Devil Fruit, everyone's eyes showed greed, "Natural ~ Earth Fruit, it's finally about to begin."
"The price starts from the low price of 300 million beli and the price increase shall not be less than 3 million each time."
"Start bidding."
As soon as the clown finished speaking, crazy bidding started.
"Three hundred and fifty million Baileys"
"Four Billions of Baileys"
"...Forty-five million Baileys, I want this Devil Fruit."
"Five Billion Baileys"
A businessman shouted a high price of 500 million beli, and the surroundings fell into silence for a moment.
After a while.
"Five hundred and fifty million Baileys."
Suddenly Sakai, who had been silent until now, sitting at the back, shouted.
Hearing the high price of 550 million, the businessman began to hesitate. He was rich and could increase the price, but the other party was someone who was even afraid of a big pirate with a bounty of 245,000 beli.
"Forget it, once you buy it, you can definitely keep it."
"You can't tell, as soon as you take the photo, the other party will start fighting for it."
The businessman shook his head unwillingly and said that he was already planning to give up.
This time he brought the best bodyguards, but these best bodyguards can only deal with pirates with a bounty of less than 200 million. Facing pirates with a bounty of more than 200 million, they will only die.
There was a hint of unwillingness in the eyes of Gricho and Watts, but they gave up the fight in the end. It would not be good to bring annihilation to their pirate group just for a devil fruit.
"Five hundred and fifty million Baileys at a time"
"Five hundred and fifty million beli twice"
"If no one bids, this Devil Fruit will belong to this gentleman."
"Five hundred and fifty million Bailey three times. Congratulations to this gentleman for getting this natural devil fruit."
The people around him looked at Sakai with jealousy, but did not dare to make any provocative move.
...
In the first half of the Great Route, a naval warship was traveling at high speed.
"Mr. Navigator, how long will it take to reach the destination?"
Jiang Feng looked at the navigator of the navy and asked with a bored expression. The waiting time is always boring.
"Your Majesty, Colonel, it still takes half a day. We are already at the fastest speed."
"Okay, I know"
Jiang Feng nodded and looked in the direction of the South China Sea.
