"Lowly creatures~"
The people who came to the auction were not only those who were obviously pirates but there were also a large number of rich and aristocratic people.
It was just that they were not very interested in the devil fruits, especially of a Zoan type devil fruit, otherwise, they would have bought it for their guards to eat.
As members of the upper class, they don't care about eating devil fruit.
Right now, they are just watching with cold eyes how this group of dregs compete for it.
"400 million! Now it's been offered for 400 million!"
"Are there any higher bids!"
"Although it's only an animal type devil fruit, but the fact that it's not recorded on the chart proves it's a rare fruit!"
"What are you waiting for when you can only spend hundreds of millions of Belis on a single gamble for a great future!"
The host had expected the Devil Fruit to fetch a billion belis, but he did not expect he overestimated the purchasing power of the pirates, after all, there are only a few pirates who can casually spend a few hundred million belis.
And those powerful and rich people only watch the pirates with cold eyes, not even the tiniest excitement can be seen on their faces looking at the devil fruit.
Just then, a voice in the front row rang out, "500 million berries!"
"Bastard! Who dares to spoil my good fortune!"
The captain of the Snow Wolf Bandits snapped as he rose to his feet in anger because the high price of 500 million belis had exceeded the savings of his entire pirate group, which meant he was out!
"Are you talking to me?"
Will turned his head away with cold eyes.
The captain of the Snow Wolf Pirate Team was about to attack and let out a few harsh words when the frightened-looking vice-captain directly strangled him and covered his mouth.
"You want to die! That's the 'Faceless' Will of the Shichibukai!"
Hearing the deputy captain's frightened whisper, he stopped struggling at once and immediately left the auction with his men in a panic.
As the saying goes, the name of the man is the shadow of the tree, and he was not the one to provoke such a big shot.
With the Snow Wolf bandits fleeing, the auction site also fell into a brief silence, although the man just deliberately lowered his voice, he was still heard by the people next to him, whether it was a pirate or rich noblemen, they did not want to be targeted by a Shichibukai!
At this time, the host also noticed the identity of the person who shouted the price, and cold sweat kept appearing on his head.
"No one increased the bid for so long, isn't it time for the hammer to fall?"
"Yes yes yes! 500 Million Belis for the first time"
"Sold! The Devil's Fruit is yours!"
It was not a loss for Will to spend 500 million Belis in exchange for a useless devil fruit, after all, he needed to absorb a devil fruit to become stronger, and it was a sure gain for him to exchange a devil fruit for money.
The appearance of Will also led to a certain degree of a lull in the auction, and it was inevitable that several of the slaves that were auctioned off later did not reach the price that the host had in mind.
But as people realized that Will had fallen silent after the first devil fruit was auctioned off, and the 'items' auctioned off later became rarer and rarer, the enthusiasm of the rich and powerful aristocrats have mobilized once again.
Fishmen, giants, furries, long-armed people
One by one, handcuffed and shackled, with a desperate and numb expression, they were brought to the booth for selection.
"Captain!"
"I know, but it's not time to take action yet, even if we save all these slaves today, it won't solve the problem."
Not only Issho was full of anger as he almost couldn't help but take action directly, even Nami and the others were so shocked by the scene before them that they could only clench their hands tightly.
But just like Will said, even if they took the risk and rescued these people, it wouldn't help, there would still be a large number of slaves trading every day, could they save everyone?
Without getting rid of the root of the problem, all they do is futile!
"It's time to show those self-proclaimed righteous navies that something so disgusting and cruel is happening right under their noses and no one is doing anything about it?" The empathetic Nami looked furious!
"Without the promise of a world government, do you think these merchants would have dared to trade slaves so brazenly, and as long as the World Nobles are in control of this world, what we are seeing today will continue to happen!
"And are we just going to stand by and watch?"
Sigh! Will sighed, he admitted that he was not a good person, but if he did nothing at this time, he was afraid that it would be difficult to lead the team in the future.
So he began to raise his hand frequently to raise the price, and since it was not good to do anything then let's buy them all!
Anyone who raises the price after he raises his hand, he immediately uses his 'death gaze' until the other party chooses to give up while wiping cold sweat.
With a big shot like him messing around, the auction almost became his one-man show, and no one dared to continue to provoke his authority under the threat of his eyes, and could only watch him succeed again and again at the reserve price.
Every time the hammer fell, the host's heart was dripping blood!
This auction was a huge embarrassment to his career!
But if they change the reserve price or replace the 'merchandise' at the last minute, the reputation of their auction will be ruined, and it will become a real dilemma!
After an extremely precious and rare Three-Eyed Tribe was also bought by Will without saying a word, the power behind the auction finally couldn't sit still.
"Lord Will, my lord asks you to meet him backstage."
An aristocratic butler in his 60s bowed and came to Will's side, but his tone was neither humble nor overbearing.
Will didn't even look at him, "I don't have time, if he has anything to say, let him come see me."
"This,"
Seeing that Will was not giving face, the butler had to step back and report.
In a short while, a guy with a big belly came over, his face full of smiles.
"I'm the owner of this auction, and I don't know where I've offended Your Lord." The boss got straight to the point, and if he delayed for a while he would really hit the wall!
"I'm playing according to the rules, so how can you offend me? "
"If you are worried about the money, you'll be paid every penny," Will replied nonchalantly and smoothly auctioned off another slave.
The look of the Boss changed and raised his eyebrows and said: "Do you know the power behind this auction? Even if you are a Shichibukai, you can't ignore the influence of the World Nobles, right?"
"Oh, I see. It's just about time for me to know what it's like to fight World Nobles, so why don't you contact them for me?" Will slanted his eyes disdainfully and returned a sentence.
The man looked at Will with his jaw-dropping expression, both angry and helpless. If it was really because he had informed the World Nobles behind him and then something happened to them, he would die a very ugly death, so he didn't dare to gamble, and even if he was given 10 lives he wouldn't do it!
"As long as you don't make any more trouble, I'll give you the un-auctioned Devil Fruit for free."
"No need, I'll get it myself!"
