Chapter 34: The Fruit of the Church Bird
•••
"Finally getting here, Laozi is waiting for this Devil Fruit!"
"Hahaha, Devil Fruit, I heard that if you eat it, you will gain demonic power. Laozi has to take it!"
"I don't know where it came from, but it would be nice if it was Logia."
"What do you dream of? Who's gonna auction Logia? A weak paramecia must be good!"
"Yes, as long as it's not Zoan, I don't want to be an ugly animal."
"..."
“Fruit Devil, I hope it's Zoan.”
Contrary to others, Kaishu hopes to become Zoan, which everyone underestimates.
Qiao Zhi excitedly opened the cover of the tray, and the black and white Devil Fruit covered in a spiral pattern caught the attention of everyone present.
"This Devil's fruit is..."
"Zoan·Building Bird Form Pipits!"
Auctioneer Qiao Zhi enthusiastically began to introduce.
"Don't think of this as an ordinary Zoan, but this is an extremely precious flying Devil Fruit!"
"Everyone thinks how lucky it is to be able to fly in the sea..."
"Whether you meet pirates or bad weather, you can fly into the air to escape."
"You should know that the great pirate 'Golden Lion' Shiki of the New World, because he can fly, renders the navy powerless against him!"
I must say that Qiao Zhi was an excellent auctioneer even though he was dressed in a cute manner. In an instant, many people were initially uninterested in thinking about this fruit...
"The auction starts now, with a starting price of 150 million Bailey, and each raise should not be less than 10 million Bailey!"
As soon as auctioneer Qiao Zhi said his words, many people on the scene had already started raising their bids.
Although only a Zoan Devil Fruit, it is also an opportunity that can be encountered but not sought by most people.
Moreover, this was still an extremely valuable flying class.
"One hundred and seventy million Bailey!"
"One hundred and eighty million Bailey..."
"Two hundred million Berry..."
"Two hundred and ten million Bailey..."
"...."
In just a few minutes, its price had surpassed Bailey's 200 million, but most people stopped bidding.
Only a few nobles, and the two who were clearly dressed like pirates, were still bidding.
Bullet watched the fierce auction in surprise, though Jhin gave him a popular science of how valuable and valuable Devil Fruits are.
But I was surprised to see so many people looting, and I was even more grateful to Kaishu.
"Three hundred million Bailey!"
Kaishu raised the sign in his hand.
"Huh?" Some of the people who were still bidding turned their heads, but unexpectedly, another competitor appeared all of a sudden, and added 50 million Baileys at once.
After thinking about it, some nobles gave up on the price increase. Not because they could not afford the money, but there was no point in buying an ordinary Zoan Devil Fruit for over 300 million Berry.
An obviously older pirate gritted his teeth and raised his mark and exclaimed: "Three hundred ten million Bailey."
It seemed that he wanted to rely on this Devil Fruit to let his stagnant strength go further.
“Three hundred fifty million Bailey.” Kaishu's faint voice rang out, which also angered the older pirates.
"Well, I'm Scully, the captain of the Mountain Cannon Pirates, do you want to raise the price?"
An old pirate named Scully stood up, looking at Kaishu viciously and threateningly.
"What are you waiting for?" Kaishu calmly asked Qiao Zhi, the auctioneer, without even looking towards Scully.
"Ah, sorry sir, three hundred and fifty million Bailey for the first time."
"Three hundred and fifty million Bailey for the second time..."
"Son, you're looking for death." Seeing Kaishu and Qiao Zhi ignoring him, Scully walked towards Kaishu angrily.
“Master, do you want to make trouble here? This is Mr. John's territory.” Qiao Zhi looked at Scully's behavior and said in a threatening tone.
"...Huh! Boy, don't come out if you have the ability." Scully gritted her teeth, and said cruel words reluctantly.
"You're smart." Auctioneer Qiao Zhi muttered in a disdainful tone, and continued to shout enthusiastically:
"Three hundred and fifty million Belly..."
"Hello!" Before Qiao Zhi's shout ended, Kaido shouted at Scully.
"Huh? Bad boy, want to beg the boy for mercy? Alright, as long as you obediently hand the Devil Fruit over to me, I will..."
"It's noisy!"
Scully watched Kaido speak arrogantly, and before he finished speaking, she felt dizzy, and she looked at her own body.
Before he could finish his words, he was hit by Kaido's "wind blade", and his head separated from his neck.
"Puffs...Puffs..." After a few seconds, blood gushed out from his neck like a fountain.
"Aah!!"
"Killer, run, run..."
The cries of the women and nobles who ran and ran away in fear caused the auction to go awry.
ADVERT
However, there were also those who sat there and watched with cold eyes, and some pirates looked at Kaishu and Kaido with interest, thinking about whether to recruit them.
However, there were also smart people who quickly recognized the identity of the two, and quietly left here with a huge change in expression.
"You....."
Qiao Zhi pointed towards Kaido, his face becoming ugly.
This is Captain John's territory, killing people here means not giving Captain John a face?
But they just bought a Devil Fruit that is 350 million Bailey.
Boss John cared deeply for the treasure, which made Qiao Zhi a little dilemma.
“Do not worry about garbage, let's continue the auction.”
Kaishu urged Kaido as if he was unaware of Kaido's rampant killing, "By the way, bring me the Devil Fruit that Laozi took."
"Yes yes!"
Qiao Zhi blinked his eyes and had his subordinates report the matter to John.
The other person took the Devil Fruit to complete the transaction with Kaishu, and then the auction continued.
Everyone present acted as if nothing had happened, even corpses and Bloodlines were cleared.
"The following items are believed to be more valuable to all swordsmen than Devil Fruits."
Qiao Zhi aroused everyone's curiosity and shouted loudly with excited words:
"That is. a handful are named after the patron saint of the sea...!"
"Famous sword——Jinpira!!"
