One Piece: From the Rocks Era to King of the World

Chapter 221: Chapter 221: Pirate Expo



"Hahahaha, Buggy, but our pirate group is the free pirate group in the whole world!"

Roger laughed. He didn't like treasures or anything like that. He still liked the feeling of freedom.

Do whatever you want, act entirely based on your own preferences, do what you like, and don't do what you don't like. This is freedom!

There was a platform outside the private rooms, and beneath the platform there were hundreds of thousands of people who did not have private rooms sitting below, all waiting in a hurry for the auction to begin.

Then, the surrounding lights dimmed, and a beam of the brightest light shone onto the platform.

An auctioneer in a tuxedo and a top hat walked onto the stage. He was originally a famous auctioneer in the underground world, and now he was invited by the Wuji Pirates to be the auctioneer here.

"Welcome everyone to the auction at the World Expo. I am this auctioneer, Günter Post!"

"The auction begins now. The first item to be auctioned is forty devil fruits, but these devil fruits will be auctioned separately."

When auctioneer Günter Post came up, he got straight to the point without any unnecessary

nonsense.

Most of the people present were pirates, and they had no patience to listen to the auctioneer's extra words.

"Oh my god, forty devil fruits. Are there so many devil fruits to be auctioned at the beginning?"

When the auctioneer Günter Post finished speaking, everyone present was stunned, especially those who had never seen a devil fruit in the four seas. They were simply dumbfounded. Could the devil fruit, a secret treasure of the sea, be counted in units of "ten"?

These devil fruits were not only taken out by the Wuji Pirates, but also many were taken out by other forces and other pirates for auction.

Although the Wuji Pirates have been collecting devil fruits over the years, they would not be so wasteful as to auction so many devil fruits.

"The first devil fruit, ordinary animal type, Bug-Bug Fruit, caterpillar form, starting price is 50 million berries."

"A special note: In addition to Berry, other valuable items can also be used as collateral for the auction. We have dedicated appraisers to value the items."

Although auctioneer Günter Post's voice was not loud, after being amplified by a loudspeaker, everyone present could hear his voice clearly.

"Sixty million!"

On the large screen behind the auctioneer, there is a projector with the auctioneer's number and bid.

Everyone present has an instrument to input prices and corresponding numbers, so they can proceed with the auction directly without shouting out loud.

"Sixty-five million!"

"Seventy million!"

"Ninety-five million!"

"One hundred and forty million!"

The final transaction price remained at 140 million berries, which was considered a good start.

If it were a normal auction, an ordinary animal-type devil fruit would not be sold at such a high price, but now many wealthy people from all over the world have gathered here.

This is also the reason why many people bring their items here for auction, because there are many rich people, the auction price is higher, and they can get greater profits.

Although forty devil fruits were being auctioned, these devil fruits were all ordinary animal- type and superhuman-type devil fruits, and there were not even any ancient types.

But the average transaction price is over 100 million, and the highest price is 180 million. It can only be said that there are too many rich people. In an ordinary auction, the highest price might only be 100 million.

The pace of the auction is very fast. As long as no one offers a higher price within three seconds, the deal is made. People who are used to slow auctions enjoy this fast pace.

"What an outrageous price! Devil Fruits are so expensive!"

Bucky's eyes almost popped out as he looked at the price figures of the transactions. There was so much money that he couldn't even count it until his hands cramped.

Among the forty devil fruits, Li Yuan also took pictures of some that he felt were interesting.

The following auctions were also fast-paced, with famous knives, jewelry, antiques, luxury goods, arms, and more.

For example, there are some damaged warships, pirate ships, and even the iron battleships of the Wuji Pirates.

Anything that appears in an auction is almost always sold at a premium, and at a very high premium.

"Next are three paintings, titled All Villains. The characters in the paintings are all the members of the Rocks Pirates. The starting price is one berry!"

Next, auctioneer Günter Post took out a huge oil painting that was ten meters long and five meters wide.

The oil painting clearly depicts Rocks and the various executives of the Rocks Pirates, as well as some people around them.

Even though it was painted on a picture, it still made the people present feel creepy. The full malice conveyed from the picture made some people with poor mental abilities tremble with fear.

"One hundred million berries!"

"Three hundred million berries!"

""

"One and a half billion berries!"

After a moment of silence, fierce bidding began again, and the price soared all the way, as if there was no way to stop.

"Hahahahaha, I didn't expect it to be a painting of the Rocks Pirates. I want this painting!"

"two billion berries!" When Golden Lion saw the painting, his eyes suddenly lit up and he directly offered a price that was five hundred million more than the previous one. Golden Lion is no longer short of money, so this painting is of great significance. The Rocks Pirates were once a monument of an era. He has always wanted to develop the Flying Pirates into the next Rocks Pirates and fulfill his ambition of unifying the world.

The wild laughter of the Golden Lion came out from the private room. Everyone present was a shrewd person and no one dared to compete with the Golden Lion.

The final transaction price was 2 billion.

The second painting also showed everyone as villains, and there were three such paintings in total. The second painting was bought by Li Yuan for 2.1 billion yuan.

The third painting was bought by an unknown person for 2.2 billion berries.

Just three paintings were sold for 6.3 billion berries, which is simply astonishing!

"The finale auction will begin next. Here is the list of auction items. Please take a look. The auction will be suspended for one hour and will resume in one hour."

"Please note that during the finale auction, no Berry transactions will be accepted. We will have professionals on site to assess the specific treasures."

Auctioneer Günter Post listed the finale items on the big screen.

"Oh my god! It turned out to be an ancient animal-type devil fruit, a large sword, a powerful superhuman devil fruit, a magic medicine that is said to save the person as long as he is still alive, and even the legendary thousand-year-old dragon bone that can create an elixir of

immortality!"

When everyone saw what was listed on the big screen, their jaws almost dropped.

The next moment, an invisible greed and malice instantly filled the entire place, and many people even had the idea of robbing. After all, many of them were pirates!

"Humph!"

However, at this moment, a breath that made their souls tremble suddenly fell on everyone

present, and their greedy and burning hearts just now suddenly seemed to fall into a

refrigerator and became completely cold.

At this moment, everyone's greedy hearts were suppressed, making them remember that this

was the territory of the Wuji Pirates.

Li Yuan, who had killed many top fighters, was watching this place. If they dared to move, they would be killed the next moment. They had no doubt about this!

"Hahahaha, the thousand-year-old dragon bone for making the elixir of immortality? I must

get it!"

After seeing this scene, Golden Lion immediately left the private room. Ten thousand meters above his head, there were several islands floating, which were also the places where his most

important assets were stored.

Seeing that Li Yuan was in charge personally, many people walked out of the auction. They wanted to find the person behind the scenes to inquire about the situation as quickly as

possible.

This scene was not only seen by the people at the auction, but also by people around the world who were watching the live broadcast. At this moment, the whole world was boiling! Especially the last thousand-year dragon bone, which made many old guys who were about to reach the end of their lives crazy. The powerful people contacted the people at the auction house and the Wuji Pirates to see if they could buy on credit or borrow money.

Yadina had already prepared various treasures and was ready to sell them at high prices to those who needed them. Anyway, these treasures would eventually return to the hands of the

Wuji Pirates.

The difference between the loan and the repayment can make the Wuji Pirates a fortune, but the question is whether they can get the other party to pay it back after lending it out. There is nothing to be afraid of. The forces that can borrow the treasures of the Wuji Pirates are all forces that have been investigated by the Wuji Pirates, or in other words, only those who can provide collateral can borrow. Yadina is not stupid about this.

"This thousand-year-old dragon should be the lost thousand-year-old dragon in the original novel. I didn't expect it to be caught by someone."

Li Yuan thought as he looked at the Millennium Dragon tied up in the back and looking like a

giant ostrich.

The butterfly effect, his appearance has caused part of the plot of this world to deviate from

the original track and collapse!

As for the thousand-year-old dragon bones, even if he already has a lot, he still wants to get

them. After all, no one has too much of this thing.

"Contact the people present immediately and ask them to take a picture of the Millennium Dragon Skeleton for me no matter what the cost!"

After the Five Elders and some Celestial Dragons learned about the Millennium Dragon

Bones, they immediately took action.

After all, they have the formula for longevity potion. As long as they have the bones of a thousand-year-old dragon, they can make the potion. That means longevity, which is what the Tianlong people desire most!

"Thousand-year-old dragon bones, elixir of life, I didn't expect this kind of thing to appear at the auction. There must be something fishy going on behind this." Rayleigh looked at this scene and laughed, saying that it had nothing to do with their Roger

Pirates anyway because they had no money for the auction.

Half an hour later, the auction started again.

"The first item is the Grand Blade, the 21st Grade Sea-Splitting Sword. The starting price is

100 million!"

Auctioneer Günter Post came up with a long azure blue knife.

"Five hundred million!"Nôv(el)B\\jnn

Right from the start, Li Yuan raised the price five times as much. Every big sword was a

treasure, especially for a swordsman. Li Yuan would not miss a big sword. Although he has a lot of big swords, he is never satisfied.

As soon as Li Yuan made his bid, 90% of the people present gave up the idea of bidding.

"Six hundred million!"

This time, it was Golden Lion who was defeated. He was also a swordsman and also wanted

this big sword.

"Seven hundred million!"

Li Yuan directly raised the price again.

"Eight hundred million!"

Jin Shi didn't care and just wanted this big sword. It was so hard to see a big sword, he would

not give it up. After all, except Ying Ju and Mu Ku, he had no other big swords.
