"Navy?" Beckman said slightly surprised, "Why did the navy appear in Yuba?"
"Who knows, maybe it has something to do with Devil Fruit." Red-Hair said, touching his chin.
"Devil Fruit? Is someone reselling it at Yuba?"
"Well, there is Auction."
Beckman thought for a while and asked, "Who in the navy has gone?"
"Sakazuki."
"What!" Beckman frowned, "It's actually Akainu... That guy is very difficult to deal with. Is it okay for you to be there alone?"
"It's okay, Lin Mo is here too. Let me tell you, Lin Mo is really interesting..."
After that, Red-Hair turned on the chatterbox mode.
Beckman was speechless for a while on the other side of Den Den Mushi. He wanted to hang up the phone, but he was not sure whether Red-Hair would suddenly think of something serious to say, so he had to listen to Red-Hair's rambling until he hung up the phone on his own initiative.
Red Hair Pirates Ship Cabin ri.
Bajiru walked in while eating meat. Seeing Beckman looking like he had a headache, he asked strangely, "Beckman, what's wrong? Was it the boss's call just now?"
Beckman nodded.
Bajiru asked with a smile, "Has the boss found the boy Lin Mo?"
"Found it." Beckman lit a cigarette, took a puff, and continued, "They are now in a place called Yuba, and Akainu is also there."
"Hmm? Akainu? Navy?" Bajiru's eating action paused for a moment, "Can that guy, the boss, handle it?"
"It's definitely okay to escape unscathed. I'm just afraid that guy will meddle in his own business..."
After Lin Mo separated from Red-Hair, he found a shady place under a big tree, propped up his own lounge chair, lay down comfortably, and took a nap.
Not long after sleeping, not far away, the plain-clothed navy soldiers scattered around Yuba suddenly gathered.
The leader was a burly man wearing a dark red suit, a rose corsage on his left chest, black leather gloves on his hands, a navy hat on his head, and a Marine Admiral coat behind him.
He is the same name as Aokiji, one of the navy Three Admirals, and Akainu Sakazuki, the ability user of Magma-Magma Fruit.
Compared with the laziness of Aokiji, this is a man who pursues complete justice, has a straight character, is cruel and merciless in his methods, and will never allow a trace of "evil" to exist.
All Pirate are evil in the eyes of Akainu. He is also a ruthless man who can kill his colleagues and ordinary people as targets without any care in order to complete his mission.
In short, Akainu is a particularly troublesome person.
Because once he sets his sights on someone, he will keep chasing him.
When Lin Mo opened his eyes and found that the person talking to a group of plainclothes marines not far away was Akainu, he turned over again and continued to sleep.
Although he didn't know whether the purpose of Akainu's coming to Yuba was also for Devil Fruit, it would be fine no matter what, as long as it didn't annoy him.
Time passed by minute by minute.
Red-Hair saw that the time was almost up, and with the help of Observation Haki, he found Lin Mo who had gotten up early and was drinking in a small wine shop.
"You kid really drank the wine as water." Red-Hair unceremoniously picked up a small pot of Rice Wine that was piled on the small wine table where Lin Mo was sitting. He finished it in one gulp and said happily, "Sure enough, you still have to drink the wine in big gulps to feel good, hahaha..."
Lin Mo glanced at him speechlessly and saw that the bottle of wine given to him during the day was put by Red-Hair in his pocket and a small part was exposed. It was actually still full...
Isn't this guy drinking as much as he can? Why hasn't he moved yet...
Red-Hair saw Lin Mo looking at the wine he had stuffed into his pocket, and couldn't help but laugh, "This wine, I plan to drink it with Beckman and the others when I go back, hahaha."
Lin Mo: "..."
If you really give it to them, you will probably get beaten.
Red-Hair didn't know what was going on in Lin Mo's mind, so he said directly, "It's almost time, let's go! Hahaha..."
Lin Mo drank the last sip of wine, and after paying the bill, he and Red-Hair left the small wine shop and walked directly to a seemingly simple small hotel where Auction was staying.
This is a small two-story hotel that looks rather shabby.
In the hotel, there was only an old man of about half a century old in simple clothes at the front desk looking after the store. In fact, Lin Mo and Red-Hair had long sensed that there were a lot of people behind the small red wooden door with peeling paint behind the front desk.
"You two, do you want to stay in a hotel?" the half-hundred-year-old man asked with a trembling tone.
Red-Hair slightly raised the corner of his mouth and placed the admission tickets he had bought from the two unlucky guys during the day in front of the shabby bar of the hotel.
Lin Mo also placed the admission ticket given to him by Red-Hair on the bar.
The old man glanced at the admission ticket casually, then turned around and opened the small red door with peeling paint, and continued, "You two, please come in."
"Oh, it's really mysterious." Red-Hair walked in front with the corner of his mouth curled up.
Lin Mo followed behind. Under the leadership of the old man, the two people walked into a small room that seemed to be only about 20 square meters. In the middle of the room was a table fixed to the ground.
The old man kicked the mechanism at the corner of the table, and the entire small round table automatically rotated and moved aside, revealing an underground entrance two meters long and wide.
Lin Mo: "..."
Sure enough, it's Underground Auction, it's really underground...
"Hey! There is actually a mechanism, so awesome!" Compared to Lin Mo who was speechless, Red-Hair was actually very excited.
"You two, Auction will start soon, please." The old man made a gesture to invite you to come down.
Red-Hair and Lin Mo went down one after another. After passing through a hundred-meter-long passage, what came into view was a wide space of more than 500 square meters, artificially excavated.
There were many fire stands with burning flames erected around for lighting.
Right in front of the entrance is a display stand that takes up one-third of the entire space. In front of the display stand is a row of ten single soft sofas, making a total of ten rows of auditoriums.
At this time, there were many people sitting in the auditorium. Lin Mo and Red-Hair randomly found two seats at the back of the row and sat down.
Chapter 75 Alabasta: The person targeted by Akainu
Before waiting for the auction to begin, Lin Mo looked around casually and saw Snow Woman Monet and Spin Man Buffalo sitting in the front row.
Sure enough, they came for Devil Fruit...
"Why, who did you see?" Red-Hair followed Lin Mo's line of sight and looked at Monet and Buffalo in the front row. He touched his chin and thought, "Who are those two? Do you know them?"
Lin Mo shook his head. "I don't know."
"You're still looking at someone if I don't know her?" Red-Hair couldn't help but laugh, "Hahaha, you must have fallen in love with that green-haired woman, right? Although you can't see her face, but from the back, she looks like a pretty little beauty. That's okay, Lin Mo, I didn't expect you to be like this at such a young age."
Lin Mo glanced at him speechlessly.
At this time, Underground Auction Entrance several more people came in.
It's Akainu in casual clothes and a few marines.
Lin Mo and Red-Hair can be seen at a glance.
Akainu and his group sat down in the row of seats near the entrance behind where Lin Mo and Red-Hair were sitting. Not long after he sat down, he noticed Red-Hair and Lin Mo.
Because the light was dim and the face was profiled, Akainu couldn't fully see Red-Hair's face, but the outline looked familiar.
"Admiral, have you found a suspicious person?" the navy sitting next to Akainu asked in a low voice.
Akainu stared at Red-Hair seriously and said, "Does the man wearing Straw Hat look like Red-Haired Shanks?"
"Red-Haired Shanks?" The navy sitting next to Akainu was stunned, and immediately looked in the direction Akainu was looking. When he saw Red-Hair After the Straw Hat he brought was different from the one on the previous wanted poster, he shook his head and said, "Admiral, that guy should not be Red-Haired Shanks, Red-Hair The Straw Hat worn by is the hat worn by Gol D. Roger during his lifetime. It is a very important thing to Red-Hair and will not be thrown away casually, but the Straw Hat worn by that person is a hat made by the locals of Alabasta. On the way here, we have seen many people wearing it. It is different from the Straw Hat style of Red-Hair."
"Really?" Akainu didn't notice the hats worn by the people here and looked away from Red-Hair.
Akainu just looked over, Red-Hair and Lin Mo can certainly feel it.
Lin Mo It's nothing, Akainu doesn't know him anyway.
Red-Hair, on the other hand, breathed a sigh of relief when Akainu looked away, "Fortunately, that guy didn't recognize me... Lin Mo, do you know who the big guy sitting in the row behind us is?"
Lin Mo: "..."
I know...
Red-Hair said softly, "He is Marine Admiral, Akainu Sakazuki, a very strong person. If you get entangled with him, it will be quite troublesome."
Lin Mo glanced at Red-Hair again speechlessly.
You are the Four Emperors of the future. Even if you were to fight against the Akainu of ten years ago, would you be afraid?
However, it is true that I find it troublesome.
"Anyway, before that guy finds out, let's keep a low profile." Red-Hair whispered.
Lin Mo said calmly, "Just shut up."
Red-Hair was stunned for a moment, couldn't help covering his mouth, and laughed.
Lin Mo is quite speechless.
Red-Hair This guy really loves to laugh...
Luffy learned many of his habits from this guy...
Before long, a tall and thin man wearing a black hat and a Goat beard came to the Auction display stand.
After a few brief greetings to everyone, Auction officially started.
Two girls in bikinis brought the items to be auctioned this time Auction onto the display stand one by one.
The previous auctions were all Diamonds treasures found in ancient ruins, and the ones that were auctioned were all Alabasta locals.
Until an hour later.
The main event is here.
Goatee Man excitedly began to introduce the finale treasure, "You must have heard of a treasure called Devil Fruit, which is the secret treasure of the sea, right? Although if you eat Devil Fruit, who is the incarnation of Sea Devil, you will be rejected by the sea and become a landlubber., but each Devil Fruit can give the eater powerful superpowers, so the market price of Devil Fruit can even be sold for more than 100 million Beli. Today, what we are going to auction is one of the Logia Devil Fruit. Come on, bring up the goods."
As soon as Goatee Man finished speaking, the two girls in bikinis pushed a trolley with a small square Wooden Box on it and came to Goatee Man.
Everyone in the audience stared at Wooden Box expectantly.
Goatee Man curled his lips and lifted the sliding door of the box facing the auditorium. An orange-red spherical fruit with a spiral pattern on the top, a cyan fruit handle, a swirl at one end and a flame shape on the other, and numerous small flame-shaped spiral fruit patterns on the skin appeared in front of everyone.
Lin Mo looked at Devil Fruit in the square box speechlessly.
He was extremely sure that this was the future Luffy's sworn brother, Gol D. Roger's son, Ace would eat Devil Fruit.
He remembered that Ace should have been eaten on an unknown Small Island Flame-Flame Fruit...
Why does it appear in Alabasta now?
"Oh? It's actually Flame-Flame Fruit." Red-Hair touched his chin and stared thoughtfully at Devil Fruit, who had been watched by many people.
Seeing that everyone in the audience was very interested, Goatee Man continued, "I won't say any more nonsense. The base price of this Devil Fruit starts at 100 million Beli. Each time you raise your hand, the price will increase by 10 million. The auction has officially begun, and everyone can bid!"
Immediately afterwards, people in the audience kept raising their hands to increase the price.
It wasn't until Flame-Flame Fruit was called one billion by an old man that no one raised their hands again.
Goatee Man said with a smile, "One billion, now it is one billion, will anyone increase the price? If not, this Devil Fruit will..."
Before he finished speaking, Buffalo, who was sitting in the front row, raised his hand and said, "1.5 billion."
"One to one-half billion?" Goatee Man was surprised, "Shall we just add 500 million?"
Buffalo said with a smile, "Hey hee hee hee, yes, I will directly add 500 million. Is there anyone who has more than me?"
"What's going on with this guy?"
"You have money and nowhere to spend it, right? Really, how can you shoot like this..."
People around him complained dissatisfiedly.
The old man who had previously increased the price to one billion looked at Buffalo speechlessly, calculated his wealth in his heart, and silently gave up on continuing to increase the price.
"Okay, 1.5 billion once, does anyone want to increase the price?" Goatee Man almost burst into laughter. Those of them who are in the auction business naturally hope that the auction items can be sold at a better price, so that they can earn more.
"Who are those two people?" Akainu asked, staring at Monet and Buffalo.
The navy man next to him immediately took out a pamphlet and started to search. He couldn't find Monet, but he found the information of Buffalo.
"Report, that woman doesn't know, but that fat man is from the Donquixote Family."
"Don Quixote?" Akainu sneered, "Is that the Pirate family?"
"Report, yes!"
Akainu sneered, "Hmph, just in time, when Flame-Flame Fruit gets it, we'll arrest those two people."
"Huh? But I'm not sure yet whether that woman is an accomplice of the Donquixote Family."
