This raid on Sabaody Archipelago before the execution of the Pirate King's son did not cause much of a disturbance.
After all, the Goa Empire only cleared the Lawless Zone of Tree Islands 1 to 29; it did not spread the unrest to other places.
Only the various forces behind these Human Auction House and human shops harbored hatred for the Goa Empire.
Behind these illegal black shops are not only underground dark forces, but also many powerful pirate crews, and even many high-ranking officials of the World Government have shares and participate in the distribution of profits.
But the Goa Empire today is completely unconcerned about the retaliation from these forces.
Wang Shi wanted to find an opportunity to 'train his troops,' and was waiting for these forces to retaliate and counterattack.
Thanks to Baron Goa's intervention, a large number of slaves who had been auctioned off and sold were freed.
It contains not only a large number of humans, but also various rare races.
Among these humans were even noblewomen and royal princesses whose countries had been destroyed and whose families had perished.
It must be said that the slave industry in the Sabaody Archipelago truly lives up to its reputation as a place of pleasure recognized by the Celestial Dragons; its prosperity far exceeds the imagination of ordinary people.
Wang Shi picked up a flyer from a Human Auction House; the race and price were clearly listed on it.
For humans, the starting point is 500,000 Belly.
The Tontatta Tribe, the Longarm Tribe, the Longleg Tribe, the Snake-Neck Tribe... all start at 700,000 Belly.
Fish-Men, starting at 1 million Belly.
Giants: Males start at 50 million Belly, females start at 10 million Belly.
Merfolk: females start at 70 million Belly, while those with two legs start at 10 million Belly.
The Merman, like the Fish-Men, starts at 1 million Belly.
···
Pirates with bounties are auctioned off, with the starting price being the bounty.
As for Devil Fruit User, their abilities, strength, and bounty need to be assessed before determining the market price or the starting price for an auction.
"Tsk tsk tsk, speaking of Fish-Man Island, it has 5 million Fish-Men and Merfolk. How much is that worth?"
"So the Whitebeard was the real hidden tycoon."
Wang Shi casually joked that even a mermaid like Camie, whose looks weren't particularly striking, was auctioned off for 500 million Belly by the Celestial Dragons Saint Charlos.
Wang Shi's entire fortune probably wouldn't be enough to buy the entire Fish-Man Island.
Of course, once the Whitebeard Pirates are defeated, Wang Shi can rule Fish-Man Island for free and collect protection fees from the Fish-Man Island.
Since Neptune, the king of Fish-Man Island, doesn't seem to care much about the treasures of the Ryugu Castle, let's just accept their treasures.
"Your Majesty, please do not commodify humans and other races; intelligent life should not be arbitrarily priced."
With a serious smile, he reminded Wang Shi, his tone full of disgust for the slave system.
"Hehe, Brother Yixiao, the bounty for wanted criminals is set by the Navy."
"Don't forget, His Majesty spent 1 billion Belly to redeem us back then."
In this world, everything has a price...
Aramaki was actually accompanied by more than a dozen beautiful women. These beautiful female slaves did not choose to leave, but chose to follow Aramaki, their savior.
Among them were princesses of fallen kingdoms and daughters of nobles; their countries had already collapsed, so where could they possibly go back to?
They wanted to curry favor with the powerful and high-ranking Duke of Aramaki.
At the very least, I should try to get citizenship in the Goa Empire.
If one could become Duke or Duke's concubine, one would be set for life.
"How can pirates and criminals be compared to innocent civilians?"
Yi Xiao retorted irritably to Aramaki, saying that was not what he meant at all.
"Your Majesty, many people are homeless or afraid to return to their hometowns for fear of retaliation. We hope Your Majesty can grant them citizenship and arrange for their return to the Goa Empire."
Ichisho ignored Aramaki and instead made a request to Wang Shi.
"Approved."
"At that time, arrange for the Four Seas Fleet to send all those who are homeless and do not want to return to their homelands back to the Goa Empire."
Wang Shi smiled without refusing. He had already cleaned up the Lawless Zone; why would he care about such a trivial matter?
"Your Majesty, these women followed me voluntarily; I did not oppress them."
Aramaki explained with a smile that he did indeed like beautiful women, and that Wang Shi already had so many imperial concubines and noble consorts.
Then even Duke like him needs to keep up with the times.
First, marry ten or eight Dukes and concubines.
"Greetings, Your Majesty."
"I have fallen in love with Aramaki, Your Majesty, please bless us..."
"I willingly follow my benefactor, the Shepherd of the Aramaki..."
"I have no home, Aramaki will be my family from now on..."
"Aramaki is the most handsome..."
"Aramaki is my eternal hero..."
···
A large group of beautiful women chattered excitedly, and the scene of them chasing each other and laughing filled Aramaki with pride and satisfaction.
He Aramaki, but starting today, he is also a liberation hero, a man who attracts the attention of beautiful women.
"Aramaki, handle this yourself."
Wang Shi saw Aramaki surrounded by beautiful women, he waved his hand, not wanting to get involved in such trivial matters.
"Hehe, thank you, Your Majesty."
Aramaki led a group of beautiful women aside for education and instruction.
Anyway, there are basically no people at the large manor of Aramaki in the Goa Imperial Capital right now.
It's a good opportunity to find a group of high-quality beauties to replenish the manor.
The women who are sent to Sabaody Archipelago for auction and sale are basically of the highest quality.
After all, she could potentially become Celestial Dragons's slave.
Among Baron Goa's men, there weren't many who were actually quite fond of women.
Zoro and Saka are sword addicts, the brute Bartolomeo and Burgess are indifferent to women, and El Drago and Eric love gold and treasure.
Van Augur, Laffitte, Bill, Spaden are all focused on building their careers and improving their skills; they're all still single.
Capone Bege, the gang leader, actually knows how to have women.
As for Enel, who claimed to be a god, he didn't even consider human women to be the same kind of being.
···
Wang Shi instructed the various Baron to dispose of their spoils of war, treating the gains from this Lawless Zone as their pocket money.
Maya and Nojiko raided several den Den Den Mushi shops that specialized in trading with pirates, seizing a considerable number of Den Den Mushi.
Nami and Bonney confiscated a lot of Belly and treasures from auction houses and shops, taking what Issho and Enel didn't want.
The vampire bats drank a lot of blood from pirates and slave hunters, then flew back to Wang Shi, feeding back the excess energy to Wang Shi.
"Before the war began, the Lawless Zone was our territory. Let's stay here for the next few days."
Wang Shi announced to the people the ownership of the Lawless Zone, claiming to have occupied three-eighths of the Sabaody Archipelago.
He also called and urged Saint Saturn to send over the wages as soon as possible.
Wang Shi worried that the Five Elders would renege on their promises after the war.
After all, Wang Shi planned to participate in the war without contributing much, and the Revolutionary Army might even have to break through Impel Down.
In the end, it might arouse the suspicion of the Five Elders.
"We can enjoy Bubble Park and Bubble Playground to our heart's content these next few days."
"The tourist areas and souvenir shops are also very good."
"Perfect timing to spend some of the money I got from the robbery..."
···
The women immediately became lively, fully enjoying the tranquility before the war.
