Noah put down his teacup, picked up his hat, and said, "We should go!"
The two left the bar.
They just found out that an underground auction will be held on a deserted island not far from Yuzu Island.
The auction will be held in four days.
However, these underground auctions are by invitation only; you can't get in without an introduction from someone you know.
Galdino asked, somewhat puzzled, "Mr. President, how do we obtain an invitation?"
"Hehe, you'll see then."
The two returned to the Wangcai.
That evening.
Noah and his group used the power of the Float-Float Fruit to pilot the Wangcai above the deserted island.
Looking at the faint lights on the deserted island, Noah casually released a small patch of Cumuloregalis Cloud to cover the Wangcai, then fixed it at an altitude of about seven thousand meters above the island.
Galdino was shocked by Noah's abilities. He had seen Noah use cards to seal and release things before and knew that Noah was a card-card Devil Fruit User, but he did not expect that Noah could control the Wangcai to float in the sky.
"Brother Kuro, isn't Lord Noah Devil Fruit User? Can the Card-Card Fruit make things float?" Galdino asked curiously in a low voice.
Kuro adjusted his glasses, a half-smile playing on his lips, and asked, "Regarding Lord Noah's abilities, that's a family secret. Are you sure you want to delve into it?"
"Uh... hehe, I was just curious, never mind." Galdino chuckled and quickly waved his hand.
Standing on the deck, Noah closed his eyes and listened intently. At this moment, his Observation Haki combined with electromagnetic waves to scan the deserted island below from all directions.
There were a total of 392 strong life force auras and 125 relatively weak life force auras...
There are 13 underground tunnels, an underground harbor, and three submarines...
'In the mountains on the north side of the deserted island, there is a cave that can accommodate thousands of people...'
Many things on the deserted island were exposed to Noah's electromagnetic waves, which enhanced his Observation Haki. He even overheard a lot of conversations.
A dozen minutes later, Noah opened his eyes.
"Big brother, did you find anything?" Ray asked curiously.
Noah shook his head. "There are over a hundred slaves imprisoned inside, along with a Devil Fruit. They also mentioned a poisonous mushroom called the Heaven Mushroom."
Ray quickly recalled information about Heaven Mushroom: " Heaven Mushroom? Aren't they the raw materials for making Happy Heaven?"
"That's normal. Underground auctions sell contraband; that's in line with the style of those sewer Nezumi," Noah sneered.
"Big brother, should we take them down?"
Noah's tone was calm, yet carried a hint of murderous intent. "What do you think? Are we just going to let them live for the New Year? If we hadn't encountered them, we could have remained indifferent, but now that we have, there's no need to show mercy."
"I'll open the wormhole right away..."
"Don't rush, we'll treat the guests properly when they arrive." Noah had no intention of letting the guests of the underground auction go unpunished. After all, no buying and selling means no harm, and 99.99% of the guys who come to participate in underground auctions are scum.
Galdino some concerns. "Lord Noah, I've heard that many underground auctions in the South Blue are connected to South Blue nobles and the World Government. Isn't it too risky for us to do this?"
"Adventure? Why not just kill everyone?" Noah told a lame joke.
"Uh..." Galdino was speechless.
The evening of the third day.
With the last sailboat docking at the makeshift pier on the deserted island, this underground auction was finally about to begin.
Meanwhile, on the deck of the Wangcai above the deserted island.
Joshua, who had just arrived from the Rum Kingdom through a wormhole, had activated electromagnetic shielding, rendering the Den Den Mushi within a 10-kilometer radius of the entire deserted island inoperable.
"Let's go down and serve these guests!"
Noah manipulated the iron plate, leading Ray, Kuro, Galdino, and more than fifty elite family members, descending directly from mid-air.
A few minutes later.
Boom! The iron plate slammed into the entrance of the auction cave.
The dozen or so men in black suits guarding the gate immediately picked up their weapons.
Who is it?
"Stop talking nonsense, they're hostile, open fire immediately!"
*Thud! Kuro appeared instantly in front of the door. Behind him, a dozen men in black suits coughed up blood, then collapsed, convulsed a few times, and died.
Ray shrugged, then opened a wormhole and led five elite members to the underground harbor on the deserted island.
Several iron sand chains wrapped around Noah's body instantly pierced the gate.
The gate opened automatically under the influence of the Float-Float Fruit's power.
The group entered the auction hall without any hindrance.
In the bustling hall, no one noticed a group of uninvited guests walking in.
It wasn't until Noah reached the auction stage in the middle of the hall that Kuro slit the auctioneer's throat with a single claw.
"Ahhh..."
"How dare you!"
Who are these guys?
The scene was chaotic and shocking, filled with screams and shouts.
"You scum, can you be quiet?" Noah's words had barely left his lips when a terrifying Conqueror's Haki descended upon everyone.
As the person in charge of this underground auction, Curaçao, who had just arrived at the venue from the monitoring room, immediately felt an overwhelming sense of pressure.
Curaçao's expression changed drastically. " Conqueror's Haki?!"
The other guests fared even worse, all of them pinned down and unable to move; some of the more timid ones even soiled themselves.
Curaçao, suppressing his anger and fear, asked in a low voice, "My lord! We don't know if our auction has offended you in any way, but we are willing to apologize and compensate you."
" The Donquixote Family is still as trash and disgusting as ever!" Noah mocked mercilessly.
"What?" Curaçao's face darkened further, but he wouldn't back down. From Noah's tone, he knew the other knew the Donquixote Family, so he could only bring up his background:
"I admire your abilities, but this auction involves more than just the Donquixote clan; it also involves items needed by Celestial Dragons. I hope you can give us the honor."
" Celestial Dragons? Aren't they just Celestial Dragons?" Noah gave Kuro a look.
Oh no! Curaçao's heart tightened.
However, Kuro's Silent Killing Technique was even more terrifying. In an instant, he severed Curaçao's limbs. By the time the pain reached his brain, Curaçao, now a human skeleton, was already lying on the ground howling in agony.
"Ahhh... Young Master won't... let you go... ahhh..."
The other guests were also terrified, and many began to run haphazardly towards the various passageways.
Unfortunately, the next second a huge pile of iron filings blocked all the entrances and exits.
After discovering that the Escape Passage was blocked, these people revealed their true colors.
"Bastard! Let me go! Do you know who my dad is?"
"Please, please let me go! I'm willing to give you all my money!"
"Help!"
"Waaaaah, I want to go home!"
"Go to hell!"
*Thud! Kuro chopped off the hands of a gang leader who was about to fire a shot.
This bloody scene instilled even greater fear in the nobles, wealthy merchants, and gang leaders.
"So you also experience fear and bleed. I thought you weren't human anymore!" Noah joked with a smile.
A terrified old nobleman knelt before Noah, trembling with fear. "My lord! Please spare me! I was tricked into attending the auction! I'm an innocent man!"
Noah's smile grew even brighter, " Dino, make a wax figure of our good man."
Galdino poured out a large amount of molten wax from his hands, then enveloped the old nobleman. The wax quickly solidified, turning him into a wax figure, but leaving his mouth and nose intact for breathing.
However, before the old nobleman could even feel relieved, he discovered that his body temperature was rising rapidly.
A dozen minutes later, the old nobleman was roasted alive.
