Doflamingo's face also showed a hint of murderous intent. "If you think it's necessary, then deal with it cleanly."
"it is good."
Abel agreed, not caring about the dangerous and potentially offensive work as long as he wasn't put in shackles.
Doflamingo was also very satisfied with his attitude.
Abel took Baby-5 outside to inspect the area. Most of the people present today were prominent figures, and they were unlikely to cause any trouble before the auction began.
On the contrary, it seems that two groups of pirates are enemies and have a history of feuds, and they are shouting loudly.
Chapter 586 Witnessing a Miracle!
"I really didn't expect to see you here. By the way, where is your first mate?"
"Oh, I almost forgot, that guy named Vernon got his head chopped off by the boss with one stroke."
"Even in death, he clung tightly to the box in his arms, truly loyal... It's a pity he followed the wrong person, choosing a good-for-nothing as his captain, tsk tsk~"
……
"You fucking bastards are asking for it!"
"You'll pay for Captain Vernon's debt in blood later!"
"That's right, after all this time, we've finally found you bunch of bastards who only know how to take advantage of others and bully the weak. No one's getting away today!"
……
The two groups of people who already had a feud were coincidentally sitting next to each other. Apart from the captains of both sides who were still sitting in their seats, the rest of their men stood up, their faces red and their eyes wide, wishing they could kill each other right now.
What kept them from taking action, of course, was the attitude of their own captain.
Because both captains know that whoever acts impulsively first will be eliminated.
Don't forget where you are.
What would happen if someone caused trouble at Doflamingo's auction house?
Even if you pay 'protection money,' you still won't be able to leave alive.
Why would they think that way?
Because a chilling killing intent had locked onto them!
He was a handsome young man wearing a suit, with two knives and a gun at his waist.
At that moment, the other person was staring at them, and his right hand had already lightly rested on the hilt of his knife.
This gave them a misconception.
If either of them loses control of their men, they will both be beheaded the moment a fight breaks out.
That's why the two of them remained silent while their subordinates were arguing so fiercely.
"The Don Quixote family... is indeed extraordinary!"
After the thought crossed their minds at the same time, they both decided not to cause trouble for themselves.
Even if we're going to fight, we should go outside and fight.
"Shut up, everyone!"
"Silence!"
The two captains spoke at roughly the same time, but unexpectedly, they both scolded their own men.
They looked at each other and understood what the other meant.
Let's fight to the death after the auction is over!
"pity."
Abel released the hilt of his sword and continued to survey the scene.
After the farce ended, the auction house returned to calm.
After a short wait, today's auction finally began.
Although Doflamingo was truly interested in the auction of the artificial Devil Fruits, the preceding appetizers were also essential.
In addition, the auction items were all exquisite pieces from the family collection, which gradually heated up the atmosphere.
Finally, with a grand introduction from the host, the artificial Devil Fruit SMILE was brought onto the stage.
Of course, it's not ten, but only four.
"What is laid out before you now is the culmination of a lifetime of research by a super genius scientist: the artificial Devil Fruit... 'SMILE'!"
"That's right, everyone heard me correctly. It's not just that it looks similar; it is indeed a Devil Fruit, but it was manufactured!"
These words caused an uproar among those present, even though they had already been informed.
After all, if this thing is real, it will definitely change the existing situation.
Because it's man-made, it means continuous and controllable production!
No one can resist the temptation to turn their subordinates into Devil Fruit users!
"Impossible, I don't believe it!"
"Yeah, Devil Fruits can actually be artificially created? That's a joke!"
"What proof do you have that this thing works?"
Some people immediately began to question whether there were any shills that Doflamingo had arranged beforehand.
Under pressure from the crowd, the host on stage wiped the sweat from his brow and tried to calm everyone down while shouting loudly.
But he didn't have any real strength.
Just then, Doflamingo's voice suddenly rang out.
"Since some people don't believe it, let's verify it on the spot!"
Doflamingo stepped out from behind the scenes and into the spotlight.
In an instant, the room fell silent.
The host quickly chimed in, "Bring them up here."
Under the watchful eyes of the crowd, three people—two men and one woman—walked to the front of the stage, all wearing handcuffs, their eyes filled with fear of the unknown.
"These three people are ordinary humans who have never eaten a Devil Fruit, and they are wearing handcuffs made of seastone."
"If anyone has any doubts, please come and verify."
"Or, if any of you are willing to personally experience the effects of this artificial Devil Fruit, you may sign up."
"But let me state beforehand that taking the artificial Devil Fruit 'SMILE' has certain side effects. There is a small chance of failing to awaken it, and the loser will be forever turned into a smiley face."
"Therefore, please think carefully before deciding whether to verify it yourself."
……
These words calmed down those who were eager to get something for free.
It wasn't 100% successful?
But on second thought, it does make it more realistic.
Moreover, this side effect of failure is actually not a big deal.
It's just to let them know that this is what 'smile' means.
"Let me... take a look."
"whispering sound!"
Amidst the jeers of many, a man walked onto the stage nonchalantly and began to inspect the condition of the three slaves and the sea stone handcuffs.
When he touched the sea stone handcuffs, his expression changed immediately, and he quickly withdrew his hand and took two steps back.
Only then did they check the condition of these people and confirm that they were not affected by the sea stone handcuffs.
This basically confirms that these people are indeed ordinary people who have never eaten a Devil Fruit.
"How is this gentleman?"
"no problem."
"Let me take a look!"
Although someone had inspected the site, it still wasn't convincing enough, so more people went out to check the situation.
The final result was indeed fine.
That's how you make people believe it.
As for trying it yourself, or being a guinea pig for others...
So far, no one is willing.
Seeing this, the host continued, "Now that we've confirmed there are no issues with the personnel, let's witness the miracle!"
"You, eat it."
The host spoke coldly to slave number 1.
Just as slave number 1 tremblingly picked up the artificial Devil Fruit, someone suddenly shouted, "Let number 2 eat it!"
After a moment of surprise, many people understood what this guy was thinking and began to shout for someone else to take his place.
The host casually said to slave number 2, the only woman, "You eat."
Upon hearing this, slave number 1 immediately stuffed the fruit in his hand into the hand of slave number 2 as if he had been granted a pardon, as if he had escaped a disaster.
Slave number 2 had no choice but to grit his teeth and stuff the fruit into his mouth.
