บท 259: Fallen Tiger
"Cut the crap! Hurry up and state the price!"
One of the people in the auction house couldn't wait anymore.
They were obviously here for the Golden Fruits. Some of them had bounty on their heads, with the lowest one being a little over 30 million, while the highest seemed to be this year's super rookie with a bounty of 170 million Belly. There could be two reasons why he could have such a bounty before entering the New World...
Either this person possessed extraordinary strength, or they had committed too many atrocious crimes!
Hearing the crowd getting impatient, the host stopped the farce and directly said, "the starting price for Gold-Gold Fruit is... 500 million Belly!"
The entire venue became much quieter all of a sudden. Obviously, most people were surprised. As a good Paramecia Devil Fruit, Gold-Gold Fruit indeed deserved 500 million Belly, but that was only its starting price. If they really wanted to get this fruit, they might have to spend more than one billion Belly!
Hearing the price, Tesoro frowned. It was more expensive than he thought. Even Vongola Family would think twice before spending. Of course, it was not that Vongola Family did not have money, but most of the money was allocated on Technical Department that consumed a lot of money every month. The amount of money Tesoro could use was not that much.
External Advisors also didn't have that much money to spare!
Tesoro only had around ten million Belly on him right now. It was unrealistic to buy this thing with normal means. Fortunately, he had never thought of spending money to buy this thing in the first place. Reborn made him realize that he didn't have to spend money if he were strong.
Soon, someone began to bid, and then many people kept outbidding each other for this Gold-Gold Fruit. Although many of them were shady people, the auction house did not care. As long as they had money, it would be fine. It was none of their business how they got that money!
However, as the price got higher and higher, some people eventually stopped.
During this process, Tesoro came to a realization: "So that's how it is. Donquixote Family has no intention to sell the Gold-Gold Fruit from the beginning! They sneaked in some of their men to raise the price until no one can bid, and in the end, Doflamingo will get the Devil Fruit back.
"Unfortunately, this is not as easy as I thought!"
At this moment, Tesoro was ready to make a move at any time. He planned to wait until everyone let their guard down and then directly snatched the Gold-Gold Fruit!
Isshin Dojo.
Giotto, who was supervising the training in Koshiro's stead, suddenly heard Den Den Mushi ring. This time, he did not bring Den Den Mushi with him. The Family contacted him through Aria. In other words, the Den Den Mushi was Aria's. However, no one should be calling unless it was an emergency at this time.
Then...
Did something happen to Tesoro, or was it something related to Demon Spade?
Tesoro should not have any problems. After all, Koshiro was also there. With him there, Giotto had nothing to worry about. He was worried that it was about Demon Spade.
Not long after, Aria knocked on the door and signaled Giotto with her eyes.
After walking out of the dojo, Aria said with a serious expression, "Something happened to External Advisor!"
"Tesoro?" Giotto frowned and asked subconsciously.
After all, the only External Advisor that Giotto could think of was Tesoro.
But at this time, Aria shook his head and said, "It's Jinbei! Something happened to Sun Pirates. Jinbei contacted me earlier. He said that they encountered an ambush on the Forschat Island. After a fierce battle, Fisher Tiger was seriously injured and could die at any time. Jinbei asked us for help, but the only one I can ask is Xanxus. Recently, the Marine has been active in Paradise, and there are no Varia members near Forschat Island."
This was very troublesome. Without Varia members, Vongola Family could not lend Jinbei a hand that quickly. Mobilizing Vongola Family's force to Paradise would take some time.
Moreover, mobilizing their force from the New World might attract Marine's attention.
Wait a minute!
Giotto suddenly thought that it was true that Fisher Tiger was seriously injured, but saving him wasn't impossible. In short, the Sun Pirates didn't need help. The real cause of Tiger's death was not the Marine's attack, but because of blood loss. Due to Tiger's hatred for human, he refused to use human blood.
Therefore, Giotto ought to persuade that stubborn Fish-Man hero if he wanted to save him!
But it was easier said than done!
If he didn't mind human blood, he would not let himself die due to blood loss, and because of his death, the Sun Pirates disbanded. But if it were Giotto, maybe persuading him was worth a try. They were accomplices during their attempt to save slaves even though Tiger was a Fish-man and Giotto was a human!
"Aria, contact Jinbei. I need to say a few words to Tiger!"
Giotto immediately made a decision. He could only hope that he could convince Tiger.
Aria immediately took out Den Den Mushi to contact Jinbei. Once the Den Den Mushi connected and resembled Jinbei, Jinbei's face was full of tears.
Seeing this scene, Giotto immediately had a bad premonition.
Sure enough, Jinbei's crying soon came from Den Den Mushi.
"B... Boss! Big Brother Tiger, he... died!"
