Domineering Pirate King
Chapter 57
The next day, before dawn, Treasure Town quickly woke up from its slumber.
Today is the annual big day of Zhenbao Town, a year's savings, a year's collection, all after thousands of selections. Held only once a year, the auction will be held only one day a year, and these peerless treasures will show their true colors!
In the center of the town there is a large circular square with a huge meeting hall, the most majestic building in the whole of Treasure Town, which is also the venue for the auction.
When the east was slightly white, the gate of the auction hall was already full of people, and the entire circular square was full of people, densely packed, looking like a swarm of black ants from a distance.
After Luffy and the others got up, they first washed up, and then ate breakfast slowly, facing the noisy sound outside, they were not in a hurry at all, especially Luffy, after breakfast, he also drank a cup of tea calmly, very calm.
After leaving the hotel, Luffy and the others carried three sacks of bulging treasures on their backs and walked directly to the crowded place.
When they walked to the circular square, they were all shocked by the scene in front of them.
The
huge circular square covering an area of several hundred square meters is densely packed with people, and the voices of people are loud and loud in the sky.
"More than 30,000 people, it really doesn't seem like a joke?" Seeing this kind of picture, Luffy couldn't help but smile.
Zoro on the side looked around, his face suddenly became solemn, he was a former pirate hunter, and naturally saw a lot of familiar faces on the bounty list in this crowd.
Nami and Kaiya didn't care too much, but there were too many people around, and the various smells produced made these two beauties who were a little bit of cleanliness uncomfortable.
"Luffy, there are so many people, how are we going to get in? Is it a queue?" asked Usopp as he looked around.
"Haha. Luffy laughed and said, "Fools are lining up, but we're going to be the ones in the VIP seats!"
Luffy's voice was not loud, but it was still heard by many people around.
Seeing the unkind eyes of the people around him, Sanji lit a cigarette and deliberately said in a deep voice, "What's the matter??".
Sauron, who was on the side, cooperated with the knife at his waist.
"Wow, isn't that the famous pirate hunter in the East China Sea, the ghost man Sauron?"
"How did the pirate hunters get here?".
"Hey, you see, isn't that blonde man the man who used to be in the newspaper?"
"Oh, I've seen this man, he seems to be a chef, he came out of that sea restaurant in the East China Sea, Barati. "
"Isn't the restaurant of violence at sea?"
Ignoring everyone's conversation, Luffy and the others walked directly towards the gate of the auction venue.
There
was a long table at the door of the auction hall, and an old man in a gray robe with a wrinkled face was sitting, and he was registering the people who would participate in the auction one by one.
At this time, a shadow suddenly appeared in front of the gray-robed old man, and when the old man looked up, he was greeted by a young and handsome straw hat boy, and the corners of the young man's mouth were slightly hooked, quite charming.
Looking at the dissatisfied people around the young man, the gray-robed old man spoke: "Straw hat boy, are you also here to participate in the auction?"
"Yes, old man, can we cut the line?" said Luffy, smiling brightly.
The people around were shocked by what Luffy said: Cutting in line is also so reasonable?
Zoro and the others beside Luffy couldn't help but laugh out loud when they heard this.
The gray-robed old man coughed and cleared his throat, he looked at Luffy and said, "Straw hat boy, are you serious?
"It's just, we've all been waiting in line for so long, why do you have to get ahead of us with a word?".
The gray-robed old man's words echoed, and a large voice of dissatisfaction suddenly came from behind Luffy.
"Hehe, old man, I'm a pirate, these are my companions. Luffy smiled and asked, "I don't know grandpa, how can we cut in line?"
"As long as you have the strength!".
"Strength?".
"That's right, economic power. "
As soon as the gray-robed old man finished speaking, Luffy smiled again, it really deserves to be an auction, as long as you have money, anything can be done for you, and money can make ghosts grind!
"I don't know how much Grandpa wants?" Luffy asked.
The gray-robed old man glanced at Luffy and the others, and said lightly: "If you want to ignore the discipline of queuing and enter the venue directly, one million Berry is one person, and there are six of you, so it's six million Berry." "
Six million Berry?!
Hearing this number, most of the people present were shocked, six million Berry was already an astronomical number for the average pirate.
But for Luffy, it's a small thing.
Luffy, Zoro, and Sanji simultaneously threw the sack behind their backs on the table in front of the gray-robed old man, revealing a staggering amount of treasure inside.
The scene was in an uproar!
No one could have imagined that these very ordinary, dressed people, would have so much money on them.
Rao is gray-robed old man who has seen strong winds and waves, and he was stunned for a while.
"Grandpa, calculate the value of these treasures and deduct six million from them. Luffy said, pointing to the treasure on the table.
The
gray-robed old man didn't touch Luffy's treasure, he stood up and said respectfully: "Don't forget it, the mayor of the town has an order, anyone who carries more than 100 million dollars can directly enter the auction venue, several, please collect your treasures, please inside!".
Luffy and the others looked at each other and smiled, and then entered the venue with the treasure in the envious and jealous eyes of everyone.
After Luffy and the others entered, the gray-robed old man summoned one of his subordinates and instructed him to entertain the few people who had just entered, they were the main owners of the auction!
When you enter the venue, you will be greeted by a huge two-meter-high round platform.
The venue was brightly lit, and there were thousands of seats arranged in a staircase around the round platform, and the round platform was about a few meters away from the nearest seat, which was probably a place for people who did not have seats to stand.
The seats on the top floor of the venue were blocked by patches of red cloth, and it seemed that they were supposed to be VIP seats.
At this time, a young man dressed as a servant came over, he first bowed respectfully to Luffy and the others, and then said politely: "Several adults, there are important guests at the auction inside, so according to the instructions of my master, please come here!"
As soon as the words fell, the young man turned around and walked in front of them, leading Luffy and the others.
Following the young man, Luffy and the others came to the top floor of the venue.
The young man pointed to one of the intricately carved wooden doors and said, "My lord, this is your seat, please wait here for a while, the auction will start later, and if you want any service, just let me know, my name is Orr." "
Seeing that the young man was very polite and in a good mood, Luffy said, "Then thank you in advance, Orr." "
Orr immediately said, "Your Excellency, this is what I should do. "
Opening the wooden door, Luffy and the others understood what the so-called VIP seat was all about.
Where's the seat? It's a luxurious room
The
soft glow of the crystal chandelier fills the room, and in the center of the room is a long leather sofa, which I don't want to sit on, it is too soft and comfortable!
The front of the room was covered by a red cloth, Luffy and they couldn't see outside, and neither could the people outside.
However, there is a huge display screen in front of the sofa, and the display screen is connected to the movie and television phone bug on the side, which means that Luffy and the others watch the auction through the phone bug.
Nami sat on the soft sofa and said happily, "Haha, it seems that it is a good thing to have money, and even the auction has such high-end seats, I thought I was going to stand under the stage at first!".
There was a coffee table in front of the sofa, on which were placed a lot of fruits and a few bottles of red wine, Sanji picked up one of the bottles of red wine and looked at it, his eyes couldn't help shaking: "Isn't this a famous wine from the West Sea? I didn't expect to see it here?".
As soon as he heard that there was wine, Sauron immediately came to his senses, he took a bottle of red wine from the coffee table, poured it directly into his mouth, drank it all in one go, and then burped and said, "It tastes so good, it's just too little!".
As he spoke, Zoro wanted to get a bottle of red wine again, but was immediately stopped by Sanji: "You green algae head, what are you doing?
"chef, you have to take care of my drinking?" Zoro was displeased.
"Hmph, barbarian who can't taste wine!" Sanji ignored Zoro, he poured the red wine into the six long-legged glasses placed on the coffee table, and then looked at Zoro with a puzzled face and said, "Fool, this wine should be drunk slowly, the slower you drink, the more you can feel the deliciousness of the wine!"
"Is that so?" Zoro picked up the glass, looked at the blood-red liquor inside, and then took a sip in his mouth, slowly tasting it with the tip of his tongue.
In the next second, Zoro's body trembled, and he seemed to feel an electric current flowing through the tip of his tongue all over his body, and then a refreshing sensation rushed to his head, as if he was flying in the sky.
"Wow, Sanji, this wine is so delicious!".
Nami, Usopp and Kaiya couldn't help but praise as well.
Hearing everyone's praise, Sanji couldn't help but become proud: "That's, I'm a very good chef, how can I drink wine to make the taste better It's not a piece of cake for me?".
"Everyone, look, the auction is about to start!" Luffy said, holding his wine glass and pointing to the display in front of him.
When everyone heard this, they all saw that the huge display screen was playing the situation in the auction venue, and the flow of people gradually poured into the venue, and through the phone bug, the noisy sound could be heard somewhat.
At this time, the lights in the venue suddenly went out, and then a bright light came from the round platform in the center of the venue.
The venue suddenly fell silent, densely packed with people, only the sound of breathing was heard, and everyone knew that the auction was about to start.
"Hopefully I can buy a Devil Fruit this time. Luffy looked at the round table in the display and muttered.
