章節 52: Information About Love Love Fruit
Few people know Kahn's Den Den Mushi number; even King Riku needs to call Scarlett or Viola to contact Kahn.
There are currently only two people who can call Kahn.
One is Capone Bege in West Blue, who calls Kahn every month to report on the progress of the Capone family's unification of the West Blue Mafia.
At the age of fourteen, he had witnessed Kahn's monster-like power, and Capone Bege never thought of betraying Kahn.
That kind of natural monster could kill him with just a breath.
After reading the news some time ago about Kahn's first battle in the Grand Line and seeing his bounty skyrocket from 300 million to 1.55 billion berries, Capone Bege became more determined to follow Kahn's lead.
In mid-June, Capone Bege called Kahn to report the progress.
Unless he was in danger in West Blue, it was unlikely the call was from Capone Bege.
If it's not Capone Bege, then there's only one other possibility - the black market.
Really...
"What... Your Excellency Kahn, we have already sorted out the information you wanted, and the price is five million berries."
When Kahn answered the Den Den Mushi, it mimicked a slightly respectful expression and relayed the message.
As Kahn became one of the great pirates of the New World, his black market VIP status also elevated to super VIP.
Even the heads of these black market strongholds needed to maintain a respectful and flattering attitude towards him.
Because such an influential person, even their big boss, had to be taken seriously.
After Kahn's status rose to a higher level, the people who contacted him were no longer the heads of these strongholds.
If Kahn specified that the person in charge should contact him, then that person would be instantly promoted.
Therefore, it was no wonder that the person on the other side of the Den Den Mushi was so flattering to Kahn.
Don't you see, when Kahn buys the New World influence map, he needs to spend 10 million berries.
Now, for buying information, only five million berries were needed.
This is the benefit of being a super VIP.
"Thank you for your hard work. Fax it now, and I'll send you the money later."
Hearing this, Kahn replied with a smile.
"No hurry, Mr. Kahn, we have great confidence in your reputation."
The Den Den Mushi quickly said, "Then I'll fax the information right now."
"Good."
Kahn nodded, then used his telekinetic power to control a pen inside the ship from a very long distance.
Using the pen, he started the special Den Den Mushi and fax machine.
The special Den Den Mushi opened its eyes and got to work.
After a while, sheets of paper filled with words were spit out from the fax machine.
The spit-out papers were held up by invisible thoughts and placed neatly on the table.
Soon, all the information was faxed to the study room of their ship.
"Okay."
After sorting out all the information, Kahn greeted the person on the other end of the Den Den Mushi and was about to hang up like the previous transactions.
"Wait a minute, Lord Kahn..."
At this moment, the Den Den Mushi suddenly stopped Kahn in a hurry, bringing him extremely surprising information.
The Den Den Mushi lowered its voice and said, "I just checked the signal wave of the Den Den Mushi. Mr. Kahn, your current location should not be in the New World but in the Sabaody Archipelago."
"If you're in the Sabaody Archipelago, you might want to visit the auction house in a few days. We've received a rumour that there will be three Devil Fruits auctioned at the auction house this season."
"Oh? That's really good news!"
Kahn's eyes lit up, and he said, "How much does this information cost?"
"No, I'm fine..."
The Den Den Mushi quickly shook its head and said, "This is just a rumour, not verified intelligence, so there's no need to pay."
"If you have time, Mr. Kahn, I suggest you go and have a look. Maybe this rumour is true, and there will be a pleasant surprise."
"I will. Thanks for the reminder."
"You're welcome. I won't bother you any further, Mr. Kahn. Goodbye."
"Goodbye."
Looking at the Den Den Mushi, which went to sleep with its head down, Kahn smiled slightly. "What a surprise!"
"Master, are you going to participate in this auction?" Hancock asked, a shadow crossing her beautiful face.
Apparently, Hancock had bad memories running through her mind when she asked that question.
Like her, Sonia and Mary also seemed affected.
"Don't make such a face."
Seeing the change in Hancock's expression, Kahn, who could no longer pat her head to comfort her, reached out and gently patted her delicate back, saying with a smile, "Think about it differently. If you weren't kidnapped by human traffickers, you wouldn't have met me, would you?"
"Uh-huh..."
Hearing this, the shadows on the faces of the three Boa sisters were instantly dispelled by a ray of light.
Yes!
If they hadn't been abducted by human traffickers, they wouldn't have met the best Master in the world.
Thinking of not meeting the Master, and only being able to leave Amazon Lily during expeditions, and seeing scenes of practising Haki and archery every day, or fighting with their peers, the three Boa sisters who had fallen in love with the outside world suddenly felt a little scared.
Kahn, who made the three Boa sisters feel better with just one sentence, continued to laugh and said, "When the auction starts, I can go alone, and you stay and protect Robin and the others."
"I see."
Hancock, who was the only one who also heard the conversations of those villains, nodded seriously.
Seeing that Hancock understood what he meant, Kahn smiled with satisfaction.
At the same time, he was also full of expectations for this quarter's auction.
He didn't expect to return to the Sabaody Archipelago and find such a surprise.
The Paramecia-type Mero Mero no Mi, very likely not yet in the hands of the Celestial Dragons, was a tempting possibility!
Kahn believed that this rumour had a good chance of being true.
And with three Devil Fruits being auctioned, one of them could be the Mero Mero no Mi he had always wanted.
If it were just one Devil Fruit, Kahn might have been sceptical.
But with three Devil Fruits, the odds were high.
Even if there was only a 1% chance, Kahn would never miss this season's auction.
