Three-eyed evil king of the pirate king
Chapter 198 Small Auction
This is an earthy-yellow fruit. Except for the spiral pattern that all devil fruits have, the appearance of this fruit looks a bit like an orange. Karl feels that if Nami is here, she might like it.
This fruit is a superhuman Devil Fruit. The rest of the information is unknown. Carl has seen the Devil Fruit illustrated book. Even so, he doesn't know what this fruit is.
There are all kinds of strange superhuman fruits. Carl wouldn't be surprised at what kind of abilities they have. Some superhuman fruit have buggy abilities, while others have no effect.
After a little calculation, Carl felt that the price of this devil fruit with unknown abilities would not be too high. If there was a rich man with a "gambling" temperament, he might bid about 2 million beli, but Carl planned to directly pay [-] million. More... Anyway, Carl doesn't care. He doesn't plan to eat any Devil Fruit. When the time comes, Carl will most likely throw this fruit to Tucker and use Tucker as a guinea pig to try it.
For Carl, the reason for buying Devil Fruit is just to train his subordinates.
After taking a brief look at the items being auctioned on site, it was a sapphire the size of a fist. Carl was not very interested in something that looked good but was not useful. However, Bucky on the side was somewhat interested and prepared to bid.
Karl simply closed his eyes, leaned on the chair with his legs crossed, and told Baccarat: "Wake me up when the Devil Fruit is auctioned."
Carl then quickly fell asleep.
He said he was sleeping, but in fact he just closed his eyes and rested his mind. If someone with evil intentions approached, Karl would wake up quickly.
Baccarat on the side was also speechless. With such a sexy beauty sitting next to her, Karl could actually close his eyes and fall asleep without even looking at her.This made Baccarat vaguely aware of Karl's wariness towards her, and Baccarat began to have trouble. After all, how could she get close to Karl later?
Karl didn't know what was going on in Baccarat's heart, so he naturally fell asleep peacefully.
I don’t know how much time has passed, but the auction is gradually coming to an end.
As the superhuman Devil Fruit was pushed up, Baccarat also pushed Karl awake.
Karl yawned and looked sleepy. He spread his arms and leaned on the chair. From the window of the VIP room, he looked at the rich and powerful people participating in the auction below.
Bucky on the side seemed to be in a good mood, and he didn’t know how many good things he had taken.
Perhaps everyone was very interested in the last Devil Fruit. Before the Devil Fruit auction started, people below were discussing in low voices.
As the powerful upper class, although these people are very interested in Devil Fruits, they are actually similar to Carl in that they are unwilling to eat Devil Fruits themselves.
Devil Fruit has actually been around in this world for many years, but most people may not know what the power of Devil Fruit is, so many people are actually afraid of Devil Fruit. They think Devil fruits contain unspeakable demons, and when one eats them, the demons will take over their bodies.
Although this kind of talk is slightly superstitious, it is widely spread in this world. As wealthy people, what they cherish most is their own lives. They would rather believe in these superstitions than make fun of their bodies. Try the Life Devil Fruit.
This is also the thought of most of the Celestial Dragons. Although the Celestial Dragons who consider themselves noble are interested in Devil Fruit, they think it is more fun and interesting!Also, after giving it to the slave, the slave's expression of pain was as if he had eaten an Ollie, which released the tyranny in the Draco's heart. The Draco rarely thought that his slave would bite him back, but instead thought that he had eaten a devil fruit. Only slaves can better provide themselves with pleasure.
Soon, the auctioneer marked the reserve price of this devil fruit, [-] million beli.
In fact, if you go to the black market to look for Devil Fruits, you may be able to get a super fruit with unknown abilities for less than [-] million. However, this auction is Tezoro's auction after all, and almost everyone present is not familiar with it. The owner is short of money, so even if the price is as high as [-] million, there is no problem at all.
As soon as the lowest price was announced, someone quickly increased the price. But what surprised Karl was that these rich people were not really stupid. Each increase in price was only about [-] beli. Occasionally, someone would increase the price by one million beli.
As for whether he wanted to increase the price just for fun, or whether he had no money, Karl didn't know.
In fact, when Karl was performing missions in the world, he also encountered many so-called rich people. Many rich people and nobles were actually just glamorous on the surface. In order to maintain their luxurious living expenses, many rich people actually owed a lot of money. Debt.Most rich people and nobles are not really stupid. They don't really insist on things that are meant for fun like devil fruits, and naturally they don't spend a lot of money.
Thinking of this, Karl couldn't help but ask casually: "The rich people here are probably not as rich as me, right?"
"Of course!" Baccarat forced a smile and said, "Actually, the chips exchanged by adults alone are probably more than 90% of the people present."
To put it simply, even if he left 140 billion beli on board, with only more than 7 million beri in chips, Carl was richer than most people present.
Karl smiled and didn't ask any more questions, but Baccarat on the side felt a little distressed for no reason.
Although Tezoro did not blink an eye and directly gave Carl 150 billion beli, this is indeed not a small amount. Tezoro's Golden City is actually a small country recognized by the World Government, so naturally it is It is necessary to pay tribute to the heavenly gold to the Tianlong people every year. The amount of heavenly gold Tezoro pays to the Tianlong people every year is about the same amount. Is this equivalent to Karl taking away Tezoro's protection fee for a year in one go?Although it was said to be exchanged for gold, Tezoro was not so easily resigned.
In fact, Tezzoro's order to Baccarat was to let Baccarat try it himself to see if he could get some money back from Carl. This is a typical gambler's mentality. After all, he gave Carl so much money for free, so he couldn't think of anything. I want to get some back, even if I know that Karl is not easy to mess with...
Seeing that the price of the Devil Fruit had risen to 3000 million beli, Carl made a bid, directly bidding [-] million. The people on the field fell silent for an instant, and then there was the sound of gasping. Seeing that no one bid again, Carl successfully obtained this superhuman Devil Fruit.
"What is the typical transaction price of a devil fruit like this at your auction house?" Carl asked Baccarat who was looking aside when he saw that he had obtained the fruit.
“For example, if it is a Devil Fruit whose specific abilities are not known, the starting price for the animal type and superhuman type is usually [-] million beli, while the starting price for the natural type is [-] million beli.
If it is a devil fruit that knows what ability, the minimum price will be set based on the effect of the ability, but the minimum will not be less than [-] million beli. "
Karl heard Baccarat briefly talk about the price, and immediately understood, and then asked: "So, there should be a natural devil fruit, right?"
Baccarat nodded: "Yes, I just don't know what kind of natural ability it is."
"I want this natural element. You can get it directly from the backstage, right?" Karl said directly.
"Master Carl, this may not be in compliance with the rules, right?" Baccarat was a little embarrassed. After all, natural devil fruits are usually very popular if they are placed at auction, and some rich pirates will also come here to attract them. So, it's easy to get a good price.
"Haha, Tezoro promised to recognize me as his friend. As his subordinate, can't you even do this little thing? It seems that I still have to have a good talk with Tezoro." Karl sneered. road.
Baccarat was also helpless, knowing that reasoning with Karl would probably not make sense, so she temporarily stepped aside and took out the phone to contact Tezzoro. Karl didn't care and continued to sit on the chair with his eyes closed and meditative.
Bucky on the side looked restless. Carl could probably imagine what Bucky was thinking, so he said casually: "Someone will send the things we took photos later, so there is no need to rush."
When Bucky heard this, his expression became slightly better.
Finally, Baccarat came in, not only bringing the items that Bucky had auctioned, but even two... Devil Fruits.
