The Bizarre Adventure of Pirates

It’s not that difficult to understand.

After all, strictly speaking, the rise of the Sabaody Archipelago was a result of stealing Doflamingo's business.

Who is 'Tian Yasha'?

He is a middleman who walks between the black and white worlds.

Before John occupied the Sabaody Archipelago, all the big and small matters in both the black and white worlds were handled by him, a big man code-named "Joker".

Then John became a god in the battle of Marineford, and then he occupied the land and became the emperor. Doflamingo's hard days began.

To put it simply, there is a conflict of functions between the two parties.

Doflamingo has no food to eat.

to this end.

He also repeatedly proved to John that he was not someone to be trifled with, even by defeating the Straw Hat Pirates.

And the result...

Ok.

I can only say that Doflamingo is worthy of being the running man of Pirates.

There is really only one word to describe running - fast!

Just now.

Although the open fight ended in failure, the flamingo refused to admit defeat in the secret contest.

This is not.

Where Jon had no time to care.

The Doflamingo family's auction has started.

And from what the old fishman said, the auction has been held for a while, and I don't know how much profit it has made...

"You're trying to evade taxes in my own territory?" Jon muttered to himself.

At this moment, the surrounding lights suddenly dimmed.

Jon knew that the auction was about to begin.

But what he didn't know was that just one door away, Bigfoot Green was rummaging through his pockets with a look of wanting to cry but not being able to.

"My keepsake...I paid a huge price to buy this keepsake..."

He was so anxious that he was sweating all over.

If he couldn't buy a spot for coating at the auction, he couldn't even imagine how long he would have to stay in this place where money was spent like water.

Closer to home.

Just as the real Big Foot was stamping his feet anxiously, the imposter 'Big Foot Green' was squinting at the merchandise on display in the center of the venue.

"Devil Fruit! Yes, this is a devil fruit that has been identified by a specialist and is 100% certain to grant magical powers!"

What appeared in the field of vision was a peach-like fruit, except that the surface of this fruit was covered with spiral patterns, which made people feel dizzy.

"It's either the superhuman type or the animal type." Jon touched his smooth chin.

Using the devil fruit as the opening for the auction is obviously a good choice. The reserve price of 100 million berries is neither high nor low, which is just right for heating up the atmosphere.

Thinking of this, Jon raised his hand and shouted like a real participant: "One hundred and ten million."

The sound seemed like a signal, and bidders began to bid.

In the end, John successfully bought this devil fruit for 230 million.

When he won the bid, a burly thug in a suit came over and said in a muffled voice, "Please pay the deposit first. When the auction is over, pay the balance and the item will be yours."

Jon casually handed him a card - it was a membership savings card of the official bank of the Chabaoti Archipelago.

The thug was obviously knowledgeable and knew that the young man in front of him was an important figure. He held the card in his hand and walked away respectfully.

After a while, a tall and thin man with two bright red marks on his face came over and said to Jon: "Hello, I'm the person in charge here, you can call me Mr. D."

Jon blinked.

What Mr. D?

Isn't it Diamante?

One of the highest officials in the Don Quixote family, representing the "square" in the family.

It seems that Doflamingo is quite willing to send the highest-ranking official here...

You have to know that if you work under the enemy's nose, you may be crushed to pieces if you are not careful.

"This place is not suitable for guests of your status. Please follow me." Diamanti said in a deep voice, inviting Jon to the members' room.

Of course Jon wouldn't refuse.

And Father Hook quietly watched the figures of Jon and Diamante going away, with a gleam of brilliance in his triangular eyes...

To be honest, the environment in the members' room is much better than outside.

Not only is there no choking second-hand smoke, there are even fruit snacks and the like.

Diamanti specifically instructed that if there was any special need, he could tell the waitress outside the door at any time.

Jon shrugged noncommittally.

After Diamanti left, he easily found the surveillance Den Den Mushi hidden in the private room. However, he did not show any surprise, but felt that the Don Quixote family's actions were not generous enough.

The auction continues...

Except for the devil fruit at the beginning.

Jon was too lazy to even make an offer for the ordinary stuff.

During this period, the most sought-after items were the coated items, and even one was sold for as high as 300 million, which was more popular than the devil fruit.

Can understand.

After all, the Sabaody Archipelago is the midpoint of the Grand Line. Every pirate who can come here has ambitions that they can express or hide in their hearts, and no one will easily give up on entering the New World.

Jon stroked his smooth chin, his eyes looking thoughtful.

Just then, the appearance of a product made his face look a little ugly.

That's a mermaid.

In other words, mermaid slaves.

Normally, Jon used to call female fishmen "mermaids". The one that appeared before him was a beautiful mermaid with a miserable look. She lowered her head, not daring to look at the burly pirates below the stage, and seemed to have understood her fate.

"Okay, okay, even the Celestial Dragons don't dare to do the slave business here. You, Doflamingo, are really brave." John smiled, his eyes extremely cold.

He wanted to kill Doflamingo with a single thought, but he felt that such an outcome was too merciful for an ambitious man who aspired to be the master of the dark world...

"You all know without me telling you how popular murloc slaves are here right now. As for the reason, hey, those who understand will understand."

The host smiled and pointed under his feet.

Although the whole sentence was not said, everyone knew the attitude of the owner of this place towards slave traders.

The navy, pirates, gangsters and even celestial dragons are allowed to appear here.

But slave traders can't do that.

Things are rare.

This is an eternal truth.

As long as the reward is big enough, there is nothing in this world that cannot be done.

Apparently, the participants of this secret auction included not only burly pirates, but also wealthy people hiding in the boxes. Their generosity raised the price of mermaid slaves to an outrageous level.

Jon watched silently, then raised his hand to bid.

He offered an even more outrageous price.

It was so outrageous that the host was afraid that he would go back on his word, so he counted down to three a few points faster than usual.

Father Hook, who was sitting below the stage, recognized Jon's voice, and the greed in his eyes almost became real. But he had been in this lawless place for so long, so he naturally knew what to touch and what not to touch.

Being able to sense his spying immediately means that the guy is not a weakling. If you want to take action, it is best to call on your brothers and friends around you...

Thinking of this, the slippery old fishman simply stopped watching the fun and slipped out of the auction house to find his boss, VanderDeiken IX.

In the main monitoring room, Diamanti was also a little surprised.

He held Jon's VIP savings card, and his eyes flickered.

A big customer.

When did such a ruthless person appear in the Chabaoti Archipelago, who spends money like water without any regret?

After thinking for a moment, he said to the person next to him: "Baby5, after that guy leaves, you quietly follow him and find out his details."

"Yes." Baby held a cigarette in his mouth and silently memorized the target's appearance.

I thought the mermaid slave was already the highlight of the auction.

Unexpectedly, the real heavyweight was actually a piece of news.

"This is true and reliable news. You must trust the credibility of our auction... Somewhere hidden is an extremely powerful devil fruit that can give a person an almost endless lifespan!"

If you say this in a bar, people will just think you are bragging.

But if it becomes a 'commodity', then the meaning is somewhat intriguing.

No one is stupid.

Faced with such news, they were too lazy to raise their hands to make an offer.

Endless life?

If that was the case, why didn't the owner behind the auction just take it, but instead released the news?

Isn't this obviously a trap?

In the private room, Jon was thoughtful.

In his impression, there are a total of five fruits related to longevity: the Childishness Fruit, the Retrograde Fruit, the Age Fruit, the Surgery Fruit, and the last one, the Bat Fruit, the Mythical Beast, and the Vampire Form.

Considering that the first four devil fruits all have owners, the only possibility is the bat fruit.

It is just unknown how the whereabouts of this precious fruit were discovered by the Don Quixote family and how they even put it up for public auction.

"Fate is funny." Jon muttered quietly and raised his hand, "I'll give you 1 billion."

In one stroke, it became a decisive blow.

The others knew from the previous bidding process that Jon didn't take money seriously at all, so they decisively did not bid against this tycoon.

The host was also happy that someone would pay for this news, whose authenticity he was not sure, to make it final.

"Okay, first time in a billion."

"For the second time in a billion."

"A billion third time!"

"make a deal!"

……

……

Amira huddled in a special water tank in despair, awaiting her tragic fate.

Suddenly, a beam of light shone in.

The man whose face could not be seen walked slowly towards them.

Amyra didn't dare to look up.

Because she knew that once she raised her head, she would have to call the human in front of her "master"...

However, she doesn't have the ability to stop time.

In a dead silent atmosphere.

The sound of falling water broke the silence in the house.
