The huge wave sweeping the anime world

The auctioneer standing on the auction table could see all the bidders' reactions.

She kept using persuasive words to incite the auctioneers' emotions and sold the "artwork" at a price that Babanuki found unbelievable.

What are the identities of these auctioneers and why are they so rich? If Lord Kaido hadn't once said that we should not easily take action against people who buy and sell "artworks".

He even wanted to directly rob these people of their wealth, which would surely allow him to buy two fruits of the ancient species.

...

"Okay, everyone. In the past, the last item of the Peak Auction was always a "special work of art", but this time it's different."

"The auction obtained an extremely precious devil fruit by chance. After repeated confirmation by the appraiser, it was determined that the fruit was an animal-type devil fruit. Ancient species. Giant ground sloth form."

"With the credit endorsement of the underground auction, there is no need to worry about its authenticity."

After hearing this, Babanuki finally couldn't sit still anymore and raised his paddle before the auctioneer announced the low price and the amount of each increase.

"Sir, I know you are very excited, but let me first introduce the details of the auction"

The auctioneer smiled and began his introduction politely.

"Animal Devil Fruit. Ancient species. Giant Sloth Form. Lowest price is 100 million berries. Each bid is 10 million berries."

Rand of the BIGMOM Pirates raised his sign and announced the first bid. He also recognized Babanuki. The other party had just tripped him up, so it was impossible for him to give him a good face now.

You must fight him from beginning to end and make him bleed heavily.

Babanuki glared at Rand angrily, but his anger was of no avail. He could only follow suit and bid, waiting to see who would win.

In the bidding competition between the two, the price was raised to 300 million Baileys. Babanuki cursed Rand and BIGMOM's ancestors in his heart.

But at this moment, someone suddenly joined the bidding between the two, and Babanuki raised the sign again and stared at that person.

"Everyone, this devil fruit has been coveted by our Beasts Pirates. I hope you will give us a favor."

Everyone in the auction was frightened by Babanuki's voice. It was not because they were afraid of the reputation of the Beasts Pirates, but because they were surprised that the other party broke the rules of the auction.

"Hmph, what dignity do the Beasts Pirates have, huh? I am the golden-haired Jello under Admiral Golden Lion. Back then, our admiral was the main force of the Rocks Pirates, and your Kaido was at best an intern."

"What kind of face can I have?"

Golden-haired Jer threw the silver-white mask to the ground, revealing his hideous face and hidden golden hair, to prove his identity.

Randall of the BIGMOM Pirates did not move. Since someone had stood up for him, why should he cause trouble again? Wouldn't it be better to just sit back and watch the fight?

"Everyone, no loud noises are allowed in the auction hall."

On the stage, a man walked out from behind the scenes dragging a three-meter-long sword.

"If you feel like challenging the rules, then let me be your opponent."

The visitor was none other than the pirate Roroal, whose bounty was as high as 430 million. He had joined the underground auction a few years ago and became the captain of the guard who maintained order at the auction.

"Who was that? You're so arrogant! It turns out to be the coward Roloal who was frightened by Garp. Why didn't you think of seeking revenge from Garp for your brother Rologal? Instead, you're hiding underground like a mole."

Golden Retriever Jie'er was not intimidated by the other party's momentum. He had heard of the other party's deeds, so there was no need for him to bow to him.

"Then will the content of this note be enough to keep you quiet until the auction is over?"

A young man dressed as a waiter handed the tray to Jer very elegantly.

Jie Er took the tray and opened the envelope on it. After taking a glance, Jie Er's face changed drastically and he sat back in his seat silently.

He put the bidding sign aside, as if he was frightened by the contents of the envelope. He didn't want to participate in any bidding and just wanted to end the auction quickly.

"Anyone else want to take a look at the contents of the envelope?"

The young man asked loudly to everyone present, but his eyes were fixed on Babanuki, the first person to break the rules.

Babanuki was speechless. He just wanted to scare the bidder with this risky behavior. As for challenging the authority of the auction house head-on? He wouldn't dare to do that even if he had ten times the courage.

“Then the auction will continue.”

The young man walked up to the auction stage himself and took over the job of the enchanting woman.

"The Beasts Pirates just offered 310 million. Is there anyone bidding higher?"

"Three hundred and four hundred million once, four hundred and ten million twice"

"Oh, Knight Randall from the BIGMOM Pirates offered 420 million. Is there anyone who offers a higher price than him?"

The young man went against the auction house's principle of only calling out numbers and directly and proactively revealed the identity of the auctioneer.

He needed to use the identities and backgrounds of those who participated in the auction to once again establish the prestige of the underground auction house.

Anyone who comes here must lie down like a dragon or lie down like a tiger, and no one can wantonly violate the rules of the underground auction house.

Under Holdem's frightened gaze, Babanuki gritted his teeth and raised the sign again to bid.

Since he came here for the ordinary animal-type devil fruit, the funding given to him by the pirate group this time was not much. He was able to come up with 400 million because he used all the other funding given by the pirate group to do this. If he asked for more, he would have to use his "private money" to make up for it.

It is impossible for a thief to rob another thief in the current situation, but he is only one step away from getting the fruits of what he planted in ancient times, so he cannot give up easily.

Although the price was already much higher than the asking price, he had no choice but to go along with it. Otherwise, if Lord Kaido knew that he had let a top-grade animal-type fruit slip from his fingers, he would be furious and might even kill him.

Randall didn't shout anymore. Babanuki was already desperate and just needed to be lifted up once.

Their GIGMOM Pirates are not like the Beasts Pirates, who have a perverted pursuit of animal-type devil fruits.

If he really bought the fruit and took it back, his mother would definitely kill him.

He only has one life, and he doesn't want to use it to gamble on a random event like whether his mother is in a good mood.

"Okay, I declare that the final auction item, the Animal Type. Ancient Species. Giant Sloth Form Devil Fruit, was won by Babanuki of the Beasts Pirates, and the bid price is 430 million."

The young man's hammer dropped, announcing the sale.

“I believe everyone is looking forward to what the last lot will be.”

"I won't keep you in suspense any longer."

The young man clapped his hands, and two people carrying paintings came out from the backstage.

"Master Hanny has been troubled by a problem in recent years, that is..."

"How much is a rear admiral plus a ship of soldiers and equipment worth?"

"Therefore, Master Hanny collected artistic materials and created this artwork "The Desperate Navy"

After the young man finished speaking, he peeled off the red cloth covering the painting.

"Now, the master needs you to answer the previous questions."

"What is the value of a rear admiral plus a shipload of soldiers and equipment?"

“No reserve price, no increment, just bid freely”
