The Witcher: The Journey to Transcendence from Marvel...

Chapter 311 First Encounter

"The Celestial Dragons got beaten up?!"

Luffy's punch instantly silenced the once bustling auction, so quiet that even the sound of breathing could be clearly heard.

"What's wrong?" Luffy, the person involved, looked bewildered, scratching his head in confusion. "I just punched him, why is everyone so quiet?"

In Luffy's naive mind, that guy bullied Camie, and he just couldn't stand it and taught him a lesson, without realizing the seriousness of the matter.

"Damn it!! That's a Celestial Dragon!!" someone nearby shouted in terror, their voice trembling with fear. "You've really got us into big trouble now, a Marine Admiral is coming."

You must know that on this ocean, the Celestial Dragons are like gods. They are high above and act recklessly, yet no one dares to provoke them.

Nowadays, most of the people at this auction are criminals who are already doing shady things. Now that the Celestial Dragons have been attacked here, there is no doubt that this place will soon turn into a brutal battlefield. Once the Marine Admirals arrive, it will surely be a bloodbath.

Upon realizing this, everyone panicked and fled in haste, wanting only to get away from this place of trouble as soon as possible.

Roswald was trembling with rage. He roared, "Take down these madmen!!"

However, his subordinates were no match for the Straw Hat Pirates.

Luffy and his crew easily defeated the charging subordinates, knocking them all to the ground in an instant, leaving them with no chance to fight back.

Seeing this, Charlia Palace angrily grabbed her gun, pointed it at Camie in the fish tank, and said fiercely, "You're here to save this stinky fish?"

As he spoke, he was about to pull the trigger and fire.

At this critical moment, a powerful burst of Conqueror's Haki suddenly erupted from backstage.

That domineering aura swept outwards like a surging tide, and those who were not strong enough were all stunned by the impact of this aura and fell to the ground in disarray.

"I didn't expect there to be such experts at the auction."

Luo gripped the long sword tightly in his hand, his face solemn.

People who can freely unleash Conqueror's Haki are not easy to deal with; this auction seems to be getting more complicated.

Just as everyone was still stunned by this sudden display of domineering power, an old man with a full head of silver hair and wearing slippers walked out laughing.

"I never expected to meet such a legendary figure here."

Some people recognized him at a glance; he was none other than Rayleigh, the legendary pirate known as the Dark King and the former right-hand man of the Pirate King.

"Haha, I'm just a retired old man."

Rayleigh smiled and waved his hand, his seemingly casual words revealing a calmness born of experience.

Rayleigh's gaze inadvertently fell on Luffy, and when he saw the hat on Luffy's head, his expression changed slightly, as if he remembered something.

Just as he was about to speak, his Observation Haki began to frantically warn him that he had sensed some kind of potential danger.

Just then, Wes walked slowly and deliberately to the auction stage.

He glanced at the chaotic scene around him, then said calmly to Rayleigh, who was blocking his way, "Excuse me, could you please move aside?"

Rayleigh's eyes sharpened instantly as he stared intently at Wes, his heart filled with vigilance.

Although he didn't know Wes's intentions, he dared not be careless in the slightest under these circumstances.

"Don't worry, I mean you no harm." Wes noticed Rayleigh's wariness, smiled slightly, and then gently flipped Charlia over with his foot.

He looked down at it, then said as if appraising a commodity, "Not bad, still alive, has trade value."

"Who is this guy?"

Everyone around looked at Wes with puzzled expressions, not understanding what this mysterious person who had suddenly appeared was up to.

Wes ignored their questions, simply pointing to the three Celestial Dragons lying on the ground and saying to Law, "Law, take them with you."

Upon hearing Wes's words, Luo stood up.

The moment he stood up, he immediately attracted everyone's attention.

Although he was wearing a mask, his signature spotted hat and the unique weapon "Ghost Cry" in his hand were so distinctive that he was quickly recognized.

"He's the 'Surgeon of Death'!!" someone exclaimed in surprise.

"Why are the Four Emperors' subordinates here???"

Everyone was even more puzzled, not understanding why Luo would appear in "Paradise".

A smart person would have guessed Wes’s identity the moment they saw him give orders to Luo.

After all, on this vast ocean, there is probably only one person who can issue orders to Luo so casually.

"Damn it!! The Four Emperors are here! Are they going to declare war on Marine Headquarters?"

Not a single mistake, not a single poem, not a single post, not a single piece of content, not a single look!

Someone shouted in terror, their voice filled with worry and panic.

In their view, the appearance of the Four Emperors meant huge changes and dangers, especially in the Sabaody Archipelago, which is so close to the Marine Headquarters. If the Four Emperors stirred up trouble here, it would inevitably trigger a massive war.

"We can't stay here any longer! We have to leave immediately!!"

Many people responded enthusiastically, eager to leave this place of trouble and get away from the potential war and conflict.

Rayleigh, a seasoned veteran with extensive experience, quickly guessed Wes's identity.

He frowned slightly, thinking to himself, "How did I end up here? It seems this matter won't end so easily today."

However, he maintained a calm and collected demeanor on the surface, muttering to himself, "I just wanted to earn some pocket money, but I didn't expect it to be so lively today."

Upon hearing Wes's instructions, Law immediately stacked the three Celestial Dragons like building blocks and then easily hoisted them onto his shoulder.

This scene was even more unbelievable to onlookers. After all, the Celestial Dragons were like gods in everyone's eyes, but now they were being carried around like cargo. It was truly shocking.

Seeing that his identity had been exposed, Wes simply took off his mask and openly revealed himself to everyone.

He knew in his heart that his actions were intentional, after all, he also needed to convey some information.

Then, Wes swaggered out of the auction with Luo Da.

Before leaving, he made a point of stopping and looking back at the Straw Hat Pirates.

When Luffy saw Wes looking at him, he stared straight at Wes without fear. In his heart, he didn't care whether the other party was one of the Four Emperors or not. As long as someone bullied his friend, he wouldn't be afraid.

But this one glance terrified the cowardly trio of Usopp, Chopper, and Nami. They quickly hid behind their companions, only peeking out their heads and cautiously watching the direction Wes had gone, looking like frightened little rabbits.

After Wes left, everyone except Luffy, who remained nonchalant, breathed a sigh of relief.

"That guy isn't anything special."

Upon hearing Luffy's words, Nami punched him on the head, tears still glistening in her eyes, and muttered, "I thought he was going to attack us."
