Pirate Journalist

Chapter 177

"Silver Ax's gratitude and hospitality may not be able to keep Murphy, so the place where work needs to be done is still at the auction."

"The things that attract men, we know best, are wealth, power, fame, and women."

"Remember Murphy's famous incident? It was also an auction. In addition to taking a weapon, Murphy also saved two people when he left. One was a charming mermaid, and the other was a mermaid. An unknown slave girl."

"You know, he was only 15 years old at that time, enough to see this person's hobby!"

In a single room on the third floor, Stracey and Vera sat facing each other, analyzing the past information bit by bit. Their gradually enlightened appearance seemed to know Murphy well.

However, while chatting, Stracey began to think about it, and then said: "It's just that I have a task to do later, and it's impossible to be the auction item in person, and you can't go as the lover of Silver Axe. There is no suitable candidate here." If not, we can only give up this plan.”

"You're right, there's only one thing to attract Murphy." Vera murmured.

However, the auction at night was not a large one, and there were not many things that could be sold. It seemed that none of them could attract Murphy's level.

"By the way, Dynamite Rock." Stracey patted her palm and said, "You also noticed that Murphy returned to the ground, and he immediately put away the remaining two Dynamite Rocks. A weapon with great lethality, no one can refuse."

Vera showed surprise, and asked a question: "Master Stracey, isn't the explosive rock only sold to specific people? It must not be allowed in the auction!"

"Special circumstances are treated specially. I will tell Chief Chris, and by the way, I will also report the death of Shichibukai Leslie. As for this, I will leave it to you to take full control."

"Yes, Mrs. Stracey."

……

"Mr. Murphy, thank you very much for saving us from Leslie's threat. Lord Silver Ax, the owner of the Engerson Islands, is currently on his way back. After hearing about your incident, I hope to report to you personally Thank you, please be sure to show your face."

While Murphy was wandering around, a woman in a sky-blue cheongsam came over. She first chose a suitable angle and bowed, then smiled and said, "There just happens to be an auction tonight. Master Silver Ax would like to invite you to participate."

After the cheongsam woman finished speaking, she took out an auction list from her arms and handed it to Murphy.

"This is the list of tonight's auction, please have a look."

Murphy silently glanced at the cheongsam woman, his face hidden under the hood, couldn't help but rolled his eyes.

Special thanks?

Who are you lying to!
Do you think everyone is a hero like Whitebeard?

The reputation of Silver Ax is also widely spread in the sea, but he is not the kind of person who would come to express his thanks.

If the expectation is good, I am afraid there is another purpose!
Are you trying to force him into the gang?

After thinking for a while, Murphy still took the list.

Vera noticed that Murphy seemed to be stunned for a while, so she unconsciously puffed up her chest, and a smug smile appeared on the corner of her mouth.

Sure enough, her and Lord Stracey's judgment was not wrong.

However, Murphy didn't notice this, but was stunned looking at the list in his hand.

Afterwards, the corners of his mouth slightly curled up, and he said, "Yes, I will attend."

After the cheongsam woman left, Murphy withdrew his smile and looked at the list again.

There are many precious things in the list, but these things can't attract Murphy's attention.

The only thing that caught his attention was the finale, the Dynamite Rock.

Dynamite Rock appeared in his vision again, making Murphy silent for a while.

According to the information he just got from the Leslie Pirates, Dynamite Rock was secretly sold by the World Government, and it was only sold to specific groups of people.

As a result, now, I saw Dynamite Rock appearing on the auction list, ready to be auctioned publicly at night.

This is very wrong.

"Did you sell Dynamite Rock before the auction?" Murphy casually called a nearby pirate, pointed to the list, and asked.

"Ah! How could such a terrible thing be sold." The pirate noticed that it was Murphy, and immediately replied respectfully.

Then, he glanced at the auction list, showing a surprised look: "I remember that the finale of the auction tonight belonged to a certain war machine! Why did it become a dynamite rock? Was it changed temporarily?"

"Okay, I see, thank you." Murphy patted the other person on the shoulder.

The pirate suddenly showed a flattered look: "It's nothing, just be able to help!"

Seeing the figure of the pirate leaving, Murphy thought again.

Dynamite Rock did not appear at the auction, but now it suddenly appeared, this situation seems to be...

It is specially taken out for a certain reason.

Could it be that the buyer and the seller have reached an agreement to transfer through an auction?
If you think about it casually, you know that it is definitely not.

This kind of thing must be traded privately, and it is impossible to sell it publicly.

Murphy squinted his eyes and thought, his heart moved, and then he turned on the system.

The strength of the new world is generally higher, and Murphy did not cast the phone bugs randomly like before.

But he will definitely not give up on the explosive news of Qiwuhai's fall.

So before the war, a small amount of phone bugs were released.

Now he turned on the playback and observed the few frames.

From the beginning of the war to the end, Murphy swept over bit by bit.

Soon, he found a suspicious figure.

It was at the head of the stairs on the first floor, and the two figures stayed there for a while.

He had an impression of these two figures, one of which was the cheongsam woman he had just met, and the other figure gradually overlapped with someone in Murphy's memory.

Queen of Joy Street – Stracey.

At the same time, it is also a member of CP0.

The woman in the cheongsam was slightly behind Stracey by half a figure, and she should be the same as the Grace she met in Xihai back then, and she was Stracey's subordinate.

So, is it being targeted by CP0 again?
It's really a narrow road to enemies, but this time, it's not sure who is chasing whom.

Silver Axe, Woman in Cheongsam, Thank You in Person, Auction, Dynamite Rock, CP0.

Murphy connected several clues together, and gradually realized in his heart that there is a 90.00% possibility that this auction is a game against him.

And the explosive rock that suddenly appeared was the bait.

Indeed, no one is willing to let go of this formidable weapon.

Murphy narrowed his eyes, and a smile appeared on the corner of his mouth.

It just so happened that he originally had the idea of ​​picking on enemies at the level of the Silver Axe.

"Since we hit each other, it's exactly what we wanted."

It's just that this time, it is very likely that they will face off against the two enemies, Silver Axe, and more preparations are needed.

He happened to have some ideas in his mind, but these ideas still needed Moria's cooperation.

　Silver Ax and Wang Zhi have only been mentioned once in the original work so far, and no information has been revealed, so the setting of the two is completely original.

　　As the name suggests, Silver Ax refers to the setting of the nickname.

　　The prototype of Wang Zhi is Wang Zhi, who was a key figure in the event of the introduction of muskets to Japan and has a great historical reputation, so use this as a reference.
