Chapter 186： fruit start

"It turned out to be this adult here."

The venue was as silent as death, and several wealthy businessmen and nobles who were extremely eager for fine wine and wanted to increase their prices silently shrank back, not because of insufficient money, but because they were afraid that they would not be able to leave the auction hall alive.

This is the place of the Golden Emperor. Most pirates and even supernovas do not necessarily dare to make trouble here and will be punished, but Wang Xia Qiwuhai said otherwise.

Especially Rhodes, the mighty Dragon Slayer Swordsman.

Seeing this scene, the host on the stage could only maintain an embarrassed but polite smile, holding a small hammer, knocking it was not, not knocking it was not.

If you knock it down, you will lose blood. Of course, the price of the rainbow wine itself will not break the sky, but it is expensive. The wine capital from the new world, under the atmosphere of the auction, can at least fetch a price of 400 million to 500 million or even higher. .

But if you don't knock, it's even worse...

"200 million Bailey, deal!"

The host wanted to cry without tears and dropped the hammer, but she was worthy of being a professional. She quickly cleared up and said aloud:

"The next thing is the climax of this auction, and it's also the finale. I'm afraid many people are coming for it."

During the conversation, two staff members walked up to the high platform holding an exquisite box.

"This is the finale of this auction, a superhuman devil fruit."

After speaking, the host opened the box, revealing a strange fruit engraved with a special pattern.

"According to the confirmation of professionals, this is in all likelihood a superhuman-type hard city fruit, a very powerful space-type devil fruit."

"This type of devil fruit is rare in the world, and its rarity is comparable to that of a natural devil fruit. With a little development, its strength can be improved to a higher level."

"So, we decided to set the auction price of this fruit at 200 million Bailey!"

After the host finished speaking, everyone immediately cheered, and everyone was very hot.

Devil fruit will always be the most popular existence in the pirate world, and it is extremely applicable, especially the devil fruit of this certain ability.

"Gentlemen and ladies, tonight's finale lot begins now!"

As soon as the voice fell, there was a sound of bidding from below.

"210 million Baileys!"

"230 million Baileys!"

"250 million Baileys!"

There were constant calls from the audience, one after another, but the rate of increase was not fast. Everyone was still watching their opponents, and they didn’t want to be the first bird.

"Three hundred million!"

Rhode raised his hand and made up the whole thing directly.

After Rhodes bid, the warm atmosphere in the auction hall was like pouring cold water.

Most people just shrank back.

A small number of people struggled for a while and then shrank back.

But this is a special devil fruit after all, which is very rare. There are still many people who are jealous and unwilling, but they dare not take the lead, because that will inevitably usher in the thunderous blow of Dragon Slaying Swordsman.

"…"

Rhodes didn't say anything, his indifferent eyes swept across the audience.

This gaze was unremarkable, but in the eyes of everyone who was swept, it seemed to feel the top of Mount Tai and the ocean overturning, almost suffocating.

This is a kind of overlord skills that Rhodes learned from Nine Snake Island.

It is the favorite trick of the Nine Snake Island Emperor. Simply put, it is to put the overlord's color in his eyes, and surrender to everything he sees.

And in the corner of the auction house.

"It's amazing, this kid is growing up too fast."

Pluto Rayleigh took a sip of wine, and a look of surprise appeared on his slightly vicissitudes face.

The last time he saw Rhodes, he had a premonition that this young man would be famous all over the world, but he didn't expect this day to come so quickly.

"Overlord, tsk tsk..."

Reilly poured the jug, only to find that a drop was gone, and he couldn't help but look up.

Misfortunes do not come singly.

He touched his pocket and found that he had lost all his money when he gambled yesterday.

Are you going to sell yourself again?

Rayleigh scratched his head a little, very distressed, because most of the auctions of Chambord were almost sold out.

And on the high stage at this time, the host also had a sore face. What could have been called the last sensational auction was abruptly made by Rhodes, and she was unwilling to lose hundreds of millions of income. She hesitated.

Forget the rainbow wine before, but this space-type devil fruit can be sold for more than 700 million or 800 million yuan!

Seeing the host's hesitation, Rhodes smiled, a little happy.

He wished that this auction would not be sold, and he could save a lot of Bailey by just grabbing it!

The Golden Emperor is so rich, he doesn't rob anyone.

But as soon as Rhode moved, he heard the host's vibrato that almost burst into tears.

"The deal is done, 300 million Bailey, congratulations to Mr. Rhodes for getting this rare devil fruit, and today's auction ends."

As soon as the words fell, the auction began to close.

The guests were stunned for a while, which was too neat.

Rhodes was also a little speechless.

It seems that these auctioneers are very familiar with the character of the sea powerhouse and know what will happen if they hesitate.

Skilled appearance, obviously often encounter this situation.

The auction ended, and the guests naturally dispersed.

If the items are photographed, they will go to the backstage to pick up the goods under the guidance of the staff.

When Rhodes arrived at the backstage, he found that the young hostess had been waiting for him for a long time.

"Hello, Mr. Rhodes, I'm Nicole. These are the two items you photographed. According to the rules, we will sell these two items to you at a 50% discount."

Rhodes was a little puzzled, "Rules?"

"There is a list of strong people in the hands of the Golden Emperor. The big people above can enjoy a 50% discount on the purchase of goods in our industry, and you are the latest addition."

The young woman threw a wink and said softly.

"It's very eye-catching."

Rhodes was a little surprised.

The businessmen in the pirate world are most afraid of what they are most afraid of, that is, the powerhouse and the master who have all the power in one.

Because if these people disagree, they may start a robbery. No matter how big the power behind you is, if you run into the sea after the robbery, no one can do anything.

And the Golden Emperor set up such a discount close to the base price, so that these sea powerhouses can be handed over. Coupled with the power of the Golden Emperor himself, it can greatly ensure the safety of its industries.

Reaching out his hand and not hitting the smiling face, Rhodes couldn't find any trouble, so he had to pay for the goods according to the rules.

"Then it's time to prepare storage equipment."

After leaving the auction, Rhodes walked on the street and murmured a little excitedly.

He has been longing for this for a long time!

But at this moment, Rhodes suddenly frowned, feeling that someone was following him.

But this person is very strong. Even with Rhodes' two-point perception bonus, he can't capture the person's position, and he can only vaguely perceive a little breath.

But Rhodes didn't have to notice it accurately.

Because at this point in time, there is almost only one existence on the Chambord Islands who can stably control him in terms of arrogance and domineering, and will find him.

"Mr. Rayleigh, I don't know what your legendary big man is doing with me."

After turning into a small alley, Rhodes turned around lightly and looked back calmly.

"Ara, the young man is very sensitive."

Sure enough, an old man with all the beard and hair walked in from the corner and said with a smile:

"The old man didn't follow you specifically, he just wanted to beg for a drink."

He looked at Rhodes' backpack with bright eyes, looking like an alcoholic who was almost drooling.
