At this point, although Reiju had already realized that her younger brothers were 'monsters' whose emotions had been largely erased, she still regarded them as family and was not completely disappointed.
"Tch, they were just born a few years earlier than us."
"My father himself admitted that the three of us are the most successful genetically modified warriors."
"That's right, you're just a 'half-finished product,' we are the hope for Germa 66's future rise!"
Reiju was speechless after being rebuked, and couldn't help but think of Sanji, the 'failed product' who should still be locked in the dungeon at this moment.
Since her mother's death, Sanji is the only person she can still find a sense of family in.
Just then, a soldier suddenly came over and reported, "We've approached the vicinity of Neon Island. Shall we land?"
"Neon Island? No..."
"Dock immediately!"
Ichi interrupted Reiju abruptly and forcefully issued the order.
“Ichi, I need an explanation. Why are we docking at this time? The ship has enough supplies to last us until we get back.”
"An explanation? This is the explanation. Take a look."
Ichi disdainfully took out a newspaper and threw it at the other person.
Reiju took it and saw that there was a section on it that said there would be an auction on Neon Island in a few days, and that the items up for auction included the nutrient solution ingredients they needed.
Her expression immediately hardened. They had just finished scrambling for a batch of goods a few days ago, and now suddenly another batch of raw materials had appeared, and it was being auctioned off.
If there were no problems with this, she would have been devoured by this newspaper on the spot!
"Ichi, where's your brain? Can't you see that this could very well be a trap to lure us into walking into a snare?"
Reiju was absolutely furious.
But Ichi didn't care at all. "As long as I can complete the task assigned by Father, what's a little risk?"
Nichk's expression was arrogant, and his tone carried a hint of irritation. "We Vinsmoke family members are fearless. If you're scared, we'll leave you a small boat. You can choose not to participate in this operation. Of course, you won't get any credit in the end either."
Seeing that Ichi, who was usually the most calm and cautious, could say such things, Reiju realized something. "So you all knew about this all along, and you had already discussed it, but you just kept it from me, right?"
Yongzhi replied impatiently, "That's it. You're so long-winded and tedious, it's incredibly annoying. The ship will be docking soon, so give me a straight answer, are you going to join or not?"
Reiju remained silent, looking at the three of them, feeling a chill run down her spine.
Indeed, she shouldn't have had any illusions or wishful thinking about them from the very beginning.
Chapter 134 It doesn't matter, I'll take action.
Near the port of Neon Island, many people stared in astonishment as the giant snail-shaped ship slowly approached the shore.
Although the black 66 logo on the snail is very obvious, since Germa 66 has been 'disappeared' for so long, and most people think that Germa 66 is just a legend in fairy tales, no one has made any connection to that.
I simply found it novel and rare!
Then, to the astonishment of many, Ichiji, his two companions, and Reiju... were the first to disembark.
In the end, Reiju gave in.
It wasn't that she approved of Ichi and the others' plan, but rather that if she didn't get involved, no matter the outcome, her father would definitely shift all the blame onto her and punish her severely when they got back!
So, to avoid this happening, even though she knew it was a bottomless pit, she had no choice but to bite the bullet and jump in.
Now we can only hope that the other party doesn't value them enough and isn't well prepared.
Otherwise, relying solely on those few individuals plus all of the nearly one hundred clone soldiers, they might not be able to break through.
At this moment, she wished she was just overthinking things, but was that really possible?
……
The most luxurious room on the top floor of the Xinde Auction House was now filled with all kinds of delicacies.
But only two people were enjoying all this delicious food...
dong dong.
"Come in."
"Lord Abel, the fish has taken the bait!" the man reported, barely suppressing his excitement, his face filled with admiration and respect.
"Understood. Proceed according to the original plan. Go now."
Abel and Baby-5 continued their struggle with the food in front of them.
Everything seemed to be under control, but in reality, Abel was quite surprised when he heard the news!
He set this trap on the island and even used his family's resources to get it published in the newspapers, but it was mostly for Doflamingo's benefit, to let him know that he had done his best.
After all, at this stage, he has never considered going head-to-head with Germa 66.
And since the person has disappeared without a trace, where can he look for them?
But to everyone's surprise, this blatant entrapment operation actually caught a big fish!
"Are they really so confident that they can swallow this bait whole and escape unscathed? Isn't that underestimating the Don Quixote family a bit too much?"
Abel was chewing his food while mumbling incoherently, making it impossible to understand what he was saying.
Even at this point, he never doubted whether the other person might have a problem with their brain, simply assuming that the other person was overconfident.
Even knowing it's a trap, they still insist on coming to test their skills.
After all, that's a Germa 66, so it's completely understandable.
But despite his understanding, Abel was still somewhat displeased at being looked down upon like that.
"In that case, let's have a go!"
Abel made up his mind that as long as it wasn't Vinsmoke Judge who personally led his men, he would make sure that none of the people from Germa 66 would ever return!
Even if they really become enemies, there's still Doflamingo to protect them, so what does he have to be afraid of?
If you're not happy, then fight! Let's just start a full-scale war!
When the current North Sea overlord, the Donquixote Family, faces off against the former North Sea overlord, Germa 66, they'll probably beat the dogs out of their brains!
Add to that the navy, which is watching closely from the sidelines...
Just imagining that scene is enough to get my blood pumping.
With a clang...
Abel threw the last plate on the table, picked up a tissue to wipe his mouth, and turned to walk outside.
He couldn't wait any longer.
Shortly after, at the auction.
Reiju and the others were all seated.
At this point, Reiju no longer harbored any illusions. On the way in, she had already noticed several malicious gazes fixed on them.
The good news is that all the soldiers have already landed on the shore by submarine and infiltrated the vicinity.
So if a real fight breaks out, they won't be isolated and helpless at the first moment.
Ichi: "There are quite a few people here. It will be difficult to kill them all without letting any escape."
Yuji: "It doesn't matter, I'll take care of it."
Nicholas: "When the auction starts, we'll make our move. I'll be the first one up, so don't try to take it from me."
Ichiji and Yuji: "Let's rely on our own abilities!"
Listening to their conversation, Reiju felt utterly exhausted.
Meanwhile, directly above them, there was a luxurious private room that could be observed from the inside but not from the outside.
Abel, Baby-5, and the person in charge of this auction house were all inside.
This treatment was not because Abel had used some underhanded trick of 'winning people over with virtue', but because this place originally belonged to the Don Quixote family!
Therefore, Abel, as a member of the family leadership, had the right to mobilize everyone here.
At this moment, most of the people participating in the auction outside were actually gunmen from the family in disguise.
They have already surrounded the 'Neon Lights' quartet.
At first, Abel didn't expect that the people who came would be Vinsmoke Judge's children, but after thinking about it carefully, perhaps only these "hidden dragons and phoenix chicks" could do such a thing.
And Abel greatly admired their courage!
Not content with robbing them once, they actually set their sights on the Don Quixote family again, completely disregarding any traps or schemes.
Abel even suspected that when Judge modified these 'neon lights,' he might have also removed their brains.
"Let's get started! I can't wait to see the next performance."
"Yes, Lord Abel."
The auction began immediately, less than two minutes after the person in charge left.
And it starts with a climax scene!
This batch of raw materials was brought up directly; the bait was indeed plentiful.
"The first item to be auctioned today is the raw material for Y3, with a starting price of..."
"No matter how many Berries you offer, I want this batch of raw materials!"
Nicholas was the first to stand up, arrogantly surveying everyone while casually flicking his punk-style hair.
At that moment, he must have felt incredibly cool!
"idiot!"
Ichi and Yuji each cursed inwardly, then pulled out their pistols and fired at the host.
Fortunately, the host was prepared and immediately ran backstage when Nic stood up first, so he was unharmed, only breaking the glass display case.
These gunshots were like stirring up a hornet's nest.
The gunmen disguised as customers immediately grinned and pulled out their guns, aiming them at them.
