One Piece: King of the World

Chapter 25 Demon Blade·Xindu! (Two more)

After entering the lawless zone, it did feel a lot of chaos here, but Stussy followed all the way, and there were some secretly hidden guards behind him, and Claudius didn’t meet any blind guys who came to make trouble.

In fact, the chaos in this unlawful zone rarely affects people like Claudius who look like a nobleman at first glance. Basically, all kinds of bad incidents are aimed at those who are dead and no one cares. We went.

On the contrary, aristocrats like Claudius are the main patrons in the eyes of their inferior people. Of course, if they can’t be offended, it’s better not to offend.

There was no trouble entering the auction venue. Stussy came forward to deal with the auction owner, and soon someone took Claudius and others to the front row of the auction venue.

Still not revealing his identity, sitting in the back row second only to the Celestial Dragons seat, Claudius looked up and saw that there were two Celestial Dragons sitting in front of him. They didn’t look big, they felt like they were in their twenties at most.

Only relying on his back, Claudius did not recognize who these two guys were, but it seemed that they were the same as his predecessor, and they had no use for eggs. He knew that the lower Celestial Dragons were waiting to die by their blood, so Claudius didn’t bother to go. He greeted him and sat in his seat indifferently, waiting for the start of the auction.

As for the two Celestial Dragons sitting in front, they didn’t even have the idea of ​​looking back at the untouchables, chatting with each other, it sounded like they were bragging about slavery or something.

Claudius sat here with nothing to do, so he closed his eyes and rested, recalling his exchanges with Dorag over the past few days.

To say whether there is any effect, it is definitely there. With a mouth, Dorag has been half-crippled, but Claudius has no hope at all if he can completely rewrite Dorag’s future.

First of all, Dorag is a very powerful guy. In a short period of time, he may think that Claudius’s thoughts are very good, but a person like him is definitely not so easy to just pay attention to his head, and Claudius can feel it. Dorag was just confirming his own thoughts, instead of taking all of Claudius’s words as good words, he was just seeking common ground while reserving differences and absorbing these essences.

But these are enough for the time being. Claudius just wants to get a relationship with Dorag first, to be able to have a friendship, and when he can guide in the future, he can guide, not to guide, at least the two will not immediately become deadly enemies, there is so A space to mediate is enough.

I thought that in a short period of time, I might not have seen much of Dorag. After Claudius sorted out the thoughts, he stopped thinking about those things and rested quietly.

It didn’t take long. The people in this auction were almost there, and the boss didn’t delay any time, and it started on time.

Claudius has not participated in any auctions, but I have heard a lot about the routines, and now it is true that it is true. Claudius did not look at the treasures and slaves that appeared at the beginning, and there is nothing unusual.

The same is true for the two Celestial Dragons in front, and they have never been overpriced.

On the contrary, the ordinary aristocrats in the back were very interested in it, and were constantly vying for things that Claudius didn’t like.

“The gap, it seems that the nobles in this world are not as high-end as I thought… or Celestial Dragons are better.” Claudius thought in his heart.

Just when he felt a little bored, did he come to the wrong place, something really interesting began to appear at this auction.

The first blockbuster auction item that came out was a slave of the giant race. He looked very strong and honest, but he had the sturdy atmosphere of a warrior. His hands and feet were covered with thick chains. The shackles were locked, and there was a huge slave collar around his neck.

As soon as this giant slave came out, Claudius felt it, and the two Celestial Dragons sitting in front seemed to be interested.

According to Claudius’ knowledge, in the slave market, except for the two mermaid slaves that Doflamingo gave him, these giants are the most valuable, and the starting price is also 50 million Baileys.

For ordinary nobles, it can be called a huge sum of money, but for Celestial Dragons, it is really not a huge amount of money. Lower Celestial Dragons like Claudius can earn money from the sky every month. It’s divided into 500 million Baileys’ pocket money, and more importantly, their Celestial Dragons basically have nothing to spend. Those rare treasures and the luxury of eating and drinking in life are basically Most of them are supported by the world government from various wealthy merchants who do business in Mariejois. It is too late for them to cheat the Celestial Dragons group. How can they have the guts to ask them Celestial Dragons to collect their accounts?

Therefore, Claudius has not used the pocket money of 500 million Baileys every month so far. Instead, he has saved a huge sum of money, waiting to be used as the start-up capital for his dominance in the future.

As for the rest of Celestial Dragons, the biggest expense on weekdays may be spending lavishly on Sabaody Archipelago. Claudius estimates that based on their urinary sex, they will not stop until they ruin Pele every month. Among them, this auction Yes, maybe it is one of the big heads.

Sure enough, Claudius had no idea about the giant slaves, but the two sitting in front of him had very ideas, and raised their hands to directly push the price down to the high price of 100 million Baileys.

Even if the other great nobles were rich, they didn’t dare to compete with Celestial Dragons. However, the two Celestial Dragons who had been chatting very happily before, at this time actually had infighting and quarreled.

It didn’t take long for the price to soar to nearly 200 million, and then another Celestial Dragons gave up this kind of contention somewhat unhappy.

After that, some interesting things came out, including the brawny slaves of the murlocs, and some weird treasures, which made Claudius a little bit interesting, and the Celestial Dragons in front of them did not compete for anything.

It wasn’t until a Devil Fruit appeared that Claudius’ eyes lit up, and he smiled and motioned for Nia to raise his card.

“One hundred and fifty million, for the first time, is there anyone else who wants to bid? This time the Devil Fruit is a very rare Logia. Even if the price is doubled, it is very cost-effective…” The auction The teacher stood on the field and kept agitating the sellers below.

Claudius didn’t care what he said at all, but he was really interested in this Devil Fruit, because this is the Marsh Fruit that will be called the “most trash Logia” in the future.

Although this fruit is also Logia, it does have some rubbish, especially in terms of ability. It can be said to be ruining people. Whoever eats this fruit will say goodbye to appearance.

However, the strength of this Devil Fruit is quite strong. If it falls into the hands of those who don’t mind the appearance, it is hard to say that it will create a top master, but it is still very possible to get a general master.

Claudius saw this thing, not for this purpose, but thinking that in a few years, maybe Marine’s scientific team should get Vegapunk, a big man in the scientific world, and he will definitely work out the kind Let the item eat Devil Fruit’s technology.

And this Marsh Fruit, if you can’t find a suitable person to eat, it’s good to make it into a portable item. As long as you don’t dislike it, it’s equivalent to getting a ‘spatial equipment’. It’s much more convenient to do everything.

At the worst, it can also be used to frame up some guys who are not pleasing to the eye, just like his previous experience.

Not to mention, after being the Celestial Dragons for the past six months, Claudius has also been infected with some of these stinky problems. At any rate, it is Logia’s Devil Fruit. Even the rubbish is very precious. It is worth hundreds of millions of dollars. He wants to bring it. Deceptive, there is no burden in my heart.

Claudius did not reveal the identity of Celestial Dragons, so others were not used to him, but after several bids, he still let him use the high price of 300 million Baileys to get this Marsh Fruit.

It’s a bit of a gain, which also makes Claudius more interested in the auction items later.

Sure enough, it didn’t take long before a famous knife that seemed to sell well was pushed up.

“Look, everyone, this famous knife is one of the 21st masterpieces of the great industry. Its name is Xindu. It was collected by our auction house at a high price from the black market, and you don’t want to hide it from you. Xindu is a demon sword. According to legend, it was cast by a large pirate who was good at building weapons hundreds of years ago. The knife had done countless evils before and had too many grievances entangled in his body. Therefore, in the process of casting the knife, these grievances were also cast in. However, after more than a hundred years of spreading, the grievances on the demon sword of Xindu seem to have faded. Many, we guess it’s time for this famous knife, which is ranked 21st of the great industry, to be reborn, and hereby find a destined person for it at this auction!” The auctioneer was very excited and introduced this knife. .

Claudius was also watching this so-called demon knife at this time. Just looking at the appearance, it was indeed very good. The scabbard of the knife body was made of wood, it was black like ink, and it was dotted with a few stripes. The golden thread looks simple but mysterious, especially with a few dark green gems dotted on the scabbard. It is natural, without the luxury of the nouveau riche at all, but it makes people think that this gem deserves it. The embellishment here has the same effect as the finishing touch.

The handle also carries the low-key luxury atmosphere. The blood-red tangled thread wraps the handle round and round, and the lines are very clear. The blade was deliberately pulled out, and it was so far away. From the distance, you can perceive the lingering air above.

“Sure enough, it is the 21st job of Dayewu…a top-notch knife?” Claudius looked at such a knife with great interest in his heart. He had already decided to take it down!

Looking at Claudius’s expression, Niya’s butler hesitated and said: “His Royal Highness, this knife looks really good, but it’s a demon sword. I heard that the demon sword is against the Lord, your highness…”

“Hahahaha, what are you afraid of? I still don’t believe this knife can kill me?” Claudius laughed and said.

The starting price of Demon Blade Xindu was very high, as high as 300 million Baileys. Claudius did not make the first shot, but was just observing who was his opponent.

In the beginning, some great nobles were bidding, and it didn’t take long to call the demon knife Xindu to the position of 400 million Baileys. Then I didn’t know what was going on, and I sat not far in front of Claudius, which I hadn’t bought before. The fellow of the giant’s slave, added 50 million Baileys in one bite, as if he was also interested in this knife.

When he spoke, the rest of the people didn’t dare to keep asking prices anymore. Claudius thought about it, and he was ready to grab the goods.

But before he asked Nya to bid, suddenly a middle-aged man with blond hair sitting in the last row of the auction smiled and bid a price of 500 million.

Claudius looked back in surprise. Although the guy felt like a middle-aged man, he was very handsome. How handsome was he? Arguably the most handsome uncle Claudius has ever seen.

At the first glance, he felt handsome, and at the second glance, Claudius was surprised.

“Hilbarz Rayleigh?” Claudius was startled. *
