Chapter 187 Big Conflict! Tezoro vs. Solem vs. Dover vs. Hanafza!
One thing that must be explained is that the Seven Warlords are now full, or it should be said that this organization has always been full since its establishment.
It’s just that almost every once in a while, a member will be removed from the World Government.
Mostly because of defeat to the pirates, the Seven Warlords themselves are the government’s deterrent force against pirates, and once they fail, they can only be removed.
A few are because of some criminal activities that the government cannot tolerate.
No matter what the reason is, once a Seven Warlord is removed, the position will be vacant, and the government will immediately look for a suitable pirate to fill the vacancy.
So in the original work, Ace will receive an invitation from the Seven Warlords.
And this Hanafza is one of the current version of the Seven Warlords of the Sea.
There is no place for him in the Seven Warlords of the Sea ten years later. At that time, he would have been killed by pirates who came out of nowhere.
But at this stage, this guy is still quite famous on the sea.
He is known as the King of Lizards. He has a very special hobby of collecting ancient devil fruits. He should have collected quite a few.
So Ian thought that even if there were no devil fruits suitable for Kuina at the auction, this guy should have some.
It’s too good to come.
Hanafza can almost be described as arrogant. When he walked past Ian and others, he just turned his head to look at Solem, then stopped paying attention and walked away.
Violet said with some displeasure, “That’s why I said why we have to hide our identities, so that these guys dare to be arrogant in front of us!”
If Ian showed his true face, the green-haired guy just now and the current Shichibukai would be scared to death.
Anyone who dares to say one more word in front of Ian is considered to be courageous.
Ian glanced at her.
You have played the fox and the tiger’s power.
However.
”That’s what makes it fun.”
Ian chuckled.
The key to playing the pig and eating the tiger is to suppress first and then praise.
Have you seen the Chinese Cooking Master Boy?
The key is not to kill the opponent, but the moment when the super chef armband is finally revealed, which is the essence.
“Let’s go,”
Ian said, “to the venue.”
This island often holds auctions, so the venue is quite luxurious. At least the gate is quite grand, and Solem can walk in without any obstacles.
Someone is registering at the door.
Registering the identities of the people participating in the auction, of course, is not a check, it doesn’t matter if you just report a name.
The key point is that they will check the funds carried by everyone this time. The poor are not eligible to participate in the auction, and this is also to avoid deliberate disruption.
After the inspection is passed, you can enter the venue.
But you don’t enter the auction hall immediately, but a banquet hall. All the people participating in the auction stay here temporarily. The organizers have prepared rich food and drinks for the guests to enjoy and socialize.
Here, the most eye-catching person is of course Hanafza of the Seven Warlords of the Sea. Even for the giants of the underground world who hold the auction, the Seven Warlords of the Sea are big names among big names, not to mention the little Karamis who attend the auction.
However, everyone dared to look at this guy from a distance. Hanafza had a cold face and said nothing, and had no intention of communicating with anyone.
Compared with him, Tezoro and his gang were much more unrestrained. They were feasting beside a long table full of food, probably accumulating strength for the next auction.
Ian also saw Morgans, who was surrounded by a group of people and seemed not to notice their arrival.
They didn’t stay here for long. After the entrance was over, the organizer began to issue number plates according to the amount of money carried by all guests. The smaller the number of the number plate, the more grand the reception.
Morgans said before that the top ten number plates also have special boxes.
Uncle Ian is naturally not short of money.
When entering the venue just now, when Solem showed the boxes he brought with him, the inspectors’ eyes lit up.
So, until he took the number plate andWhen Ian walked into Box No. 1 surrounded by the hostesses, he realized it belatedly.
It’s over.
Is there something wrong with the first step of pretending to be a pig to eat the tiger? How can a distinguished guest who is received with great ceremony be looked down upon?
Hiss.
Ian took a breath of cold air.
I have been playing the script of Long Aotian since I crossed over, but I have never pretended to be a pig. I am still too inexperienced.
But it’s useless to regret it now, I am already sitting in the luxurious Room No. 1.
How to describe the luxury of this room? Let’s put it this way, Solem can stand in it!
All kinds of facilities are also available. The huge one-way glass window can overlook the entire auction venue without worrying about being seen by people outside.
From here, you can clearly see that the entire venue is a huge fan-shaped structure, just like the division of the lecture hall in the university.
At the bottom of the fan-shaped stepped seats is a wide platform where the auction takes place.
At the top of the seats are huge boxes, which seem to be too far from the auction platform.
The specially equipped projection telephone bug is designed to solve this problem. It allows people in the room to see and hear more clearly than those in the circular seats below.
Moreover, if Yamato’s eyes were not too scary, the etiquette ladies who brought Ian and others here would have stayed to serve them.
”Not bad.”
Ian sat leisurely on the large sofa.
He has completely given up the idea of playing the pig and eating the tiger.
He is a person who likes to enjoy himself and is unwilling to treat himself badly within his ability.
Let others make things difficult for themselves.
Yamato sat next to him. The girl had returned to her original state and leisurely picked up the fruit on the table to eat.
The metal door handle suddenly crackled with lightning, and Enelu immediately emerged from the thunder. He didn’t say anything and found a place to sit down.
Violet curled her lips. This guy has been here for quite a while, but he is still as unsociable as ever.
Knock knock knock.
The door was suddenly knocked.
Ian’s mouth curled up, “Come in.”
The door was pushed open.
”Hehehe, Ian! You are still hiding your identity. I don’t think there is anyone here who is worth hiding your identity!”
Morgans walked in with a smile.
This guy really recognized me from the beginning.
But he immediately understood my intention, so he didn’t come over to communicate.
”So,”
Ian leisurely put his hand around Yamato’s shoulder, and the girl who was eating like a squirrel naturally leaned into Ian’s arms.
With a beauty in his arms and a younger brother sitting beside him, Ian, who looked like a big boss, looked at Morgans standing in front of him, “Have you figured out what the auction items are?”
”Of course!”
Morgans said as a matter of course, “Who do you think I am, Lord Ian!”
”Let’s not talk about other things first. Regarding the devil fruit you are concerned about, in addition to the Gold-Gold Fruit, another thing worth noting is the ancient species of the Snake-Snake Fruit, the Titan Python form. Hanafza came for this devil fruit.”
”Titan Python form?”
Ian raised his eyebrows slightly, why is it a little familiar.
Morgans reminded, “It is the ability possessed by the cadre of the Wang Zhi Pirates who was killed by you that year.”
”Oh.”
Ian nodded.
I remembered it.
But that guy was too rubbish. He was killed instantly by a casual move during the fierce battle with Marco.
Has his ability been found again after rebirth?
However, the Titan Python doesn’t seem to be very suitable for Kuina.
Although Kuina, as a swordsman, doesn’t need fancy abilities, she only needs a fruit that greatly enhances her physique, but becoming too huge is really not suitable for Kuina’s style, right? ”So,”
Ian asked, “Does the Lizard King have any interesting abilities in his collection?”
Morgans smiled instantly.
I knew this trip would not be in vain.
The auction has begun.
The well-dressed auctioneer came on stage, the auction hammer clattered, and items were sent to the stage one by one. Most of them were sold after several rounds of bidding, and only a few failed to sell.
The auction items are indeed bizarre.
There are antique paintings, jewelry, male and female slavesLi, famous swords, and devil fruits.
Of course, the most popular ones are devil fruits. An ordinary animal-type devil fruit has been bid up by buyers. The most expensive one, the hyena form of the dog-dog fruit, was sold at a sky-high price of 600 million berries, far higher than the generally believed 100 million level of the devil fruit reserve price.
Ian yawned all the time, it was boring.
Hurry up and bring the interesting things up.
When Ian was about to fall asleep, the host’s still high-pitched voice came from the mouth of the video phone worm, “Next, there are only the last two lots left!”
”Come on, ladies and gentlemen! This is the highlight of today!!”
Several burly men walked onto the stage guarding a heavy iron box.
“There is a devil fruit in the box!”
The host was trying to liven up the atmosphere, “Although it is not the most anticipated Gold-Gold Fruit, this fruit is not ordinary!”
“The ability of Snake, the former chief of the Wang Zhi Pirates!”
“The ancient species of the Animal Snake Fruit, Titan Python form!!”
The host shouted, “A genuine ancient species! Even in the Beasts Pirates or the Golden Dragon, it is qualified to be a chief!”
But the audience in the audience was very indifferent, as if they didn’t hear it.
The host’s forehead was sweating, and he quickly said, “It’s been too long, maybe everyone doesn’t know the power this fruit has exerted. Let me put it this way, the previous eater of this fruit, Snake the python, is a man who fought against Emperor Ian!”
”He even fought against Ian and Yamato at the same time! Such terrible strength is inseparable from this devil fruit.”
In the box, Ian’s mouth twitched.
What pirate Zabuza.
Everyone is dead, even Senior Wang Zhi has turned to ashes, and we still have to open champagne for that guy, right?
The host’s words did have some effect.
Below, the guests participating in the auction couldn’t help but talk about it. “It seems to be quite powerful when you say that.”
”After all, it is an ancient devil fruit, which is not comparable to ordinary animal-type and superhuman-type devil fruits.”
But these guests were only limited to discussing.
Because a man raised the sign in his hand, “100 million Baileys.”
The host on the stage wanted to curse, I haven’t even announced the starting price yet, and you started bidding!
The starting price of this fruit is 500 million Baileys. Are you kidding me by offering 100 million Baileys? But the host could only look at it with a pale face and dared not say a word.
Because the man who raised the sign was named Hanafza!
Hanafza, the King of Lizards, the Seven Warlords of the Sea!
The corners of the man’s mouth slightly raised, and his eyes looked at the big iron box with burning eyes.
Who dared to speak? No one dared to bid with him.
Even if you can buy this fruit, you can’t take it away.
Backstage, the underground tycoon who took out this fruit for auction had a livid face.
I had never expected that this bastard Hanafza would come! Everyone knows his obsession with the ancient devil fruit, who dares to bid against him now?
”Doflamingo!”
He couldn’t help but say to someone next to him, “Can’t you take action to deal with Hanafza?”
”Hehehehehe,”
Ian’s good brother just chuckled, “Hey, hey, hey, do you want me to stand up and say that you don’t have to be afraid of Hanafza and you can bid with confidence?”
The underground tycoon was silent.
No matter what, bidding now would offend a Shichibukai.
There are not many people in the world who have the courage to do this.
Doflamingo’s smile did not diminish.
Anyway, he didn’t take out the fruit, so he didn’t care.
He had just taken out the fruit from the safe-
”Boom!”
A loud noise suddenly came from one side of the backstage.
”Huh?”
Doflamingo turned his head in surprise.
The next moment, his face changed instantly.
Damn it! That’s the passage leading to the stage!
Frontstage.
Hanafza frowned slightly.
What’s going on? Someone is making trouble?
Box.
”Huh?”
Morgans was slightly stunned, “Where did the sound come from?”
”Someone went to steal the Golden-Gold Fruit.”
Enel, who had been sitting quietly on the side, suddenly spoke up, “It seems like they’re about to get it.”
He had been monitoring the entire scene.
”What! !”
Solem stood up in a rage, “Someone actually dared to steal my things! !”
”Boss!”
He looked down at Ian, waiting for an order.
”Go ahead.”
Ian said leisurely, “Whatever you like.”
”Hehehehehehe! ! Boss is still straightforward!”
Solem cheered, “Then I’ll go up! ! ”
He rushed through the glass wall of the box and fell into the inner field with a whistling sound.
However, it didn’t matter how many people were killed by this landing.
But it didn’t matter. Those who could appear here at this time were not good guys. Nine out of ten would be shot and there would definitely be some fish that escaped.
”Giant! !”
The inner field was in chaos instantly.
”Hehehe! Don’t block the way! !”
Tholem laughed and rushed forward, crushing everything along the way.
In the box, Ian walked to the big hole made by Thorem and looked down at the inner field below.
”Enelu, they seem to be trying to escape, go and stop them. ”
Enelu’s mouth twitched, and the next moment he turned into lightning and disappeared into the box.
The inner field was in chaos at this time, and everyone wished their parents had two more legs so that they could escape from here.
But fortunately, Solem’s goal was very clear, just rushing straight to the stage.
Hanafza frowned slightly, he happened to be on the way of Solem’s sprint.
He didn’t mean to get out of the way.
Just a giant! Seeing that Solem neither turned nor stopped, Hanafza finally smiled, sneered.
”Don’t know whether to live or die.”
The sickle in Hanafza’s hand flew out instantly, heading towards the gap in the armor on Solem’s neck.
Very accurate, fast, and stable.
”Ah? ”
Solem, who originally just wanted to quickly grab the Gold-Gold Fruit, was stunned for a moment, and then became furious.
Who are you? How dare you stop me?
He grabbed Hanafza’s sickle with his backhand and swung it hard, directly turning the unsuspecting Shichibukai into a meteor hammer and smashing it into the high wall behind.
”Hey! !”
All those who witnessed this scene were directly shocked.
Although the giant is also very scary, it is Shichibukai!! Solem didn’t care at all, just strode onto the stage.
With a glance from the corner of his eye, he took the box containing the giant python fruit from the dumbfounded bodyguards.
Since I’m here, I’d better take it. This fruit should be quite valuable, right?
Then he kicked open the wall in the backstage.
And a few seconds before he rushed in.
”Got it! !”
The green-haired man looked at the golden fruit in his hand intoxicatedly.
Around him lay the pirates of the Don Quixote family who were escorting the fruit.
“Then let’s go quickly, Master Tesoro!”
The big-headed man hurriedly said.
Tesoro and the other two put their hands on him.
The big-headed man was named Tanaka, and his ability was activated instantly.
The superhuman-type Piercing Fruit, which allows him to penetrate all inorganic matter with others.
In short, he can take everyone underground and leave.
But.
“That guy said you can’t leave.”
A cold voice suddenly sounded from behind, “Thunder Gun. ”
Crack! ! The brilliant lightning flashed like a spear, instantly piercing Tanaka’s body and sending him flying.
Even Tesoro and the other two were affected by the lightning and staggered in all directions.
The big-headed doll Tanaka hit the wall directly, then fell to the ground dejectedly, and fainted with black smoke coming out of his mouth.
”Tanaka!”
Tesoro’s face changed instantly.
If Tanaka was knocked down, it would not be so easy to leave! That was when.
”Hehehehehe! Let me see which bastard dares to cause trouble in my territory! ! !”
The surrounding walls had instantly turned into silk threads, and in the midst of all the silk threads, the King of Silk Threads flew over!
Doflamingo looked down at everyone present, and his sight instantly locked on the gold in Tesoro’s hand.On the golden fruit, veins suddenly bloomed on his forehead.
“Hey, hey, hey, if I’m not mistaken, that’s my thing, right?”
“No! That’s my thing!”
Solem strode over, his eyes fixed on the fruit in Tesoro’s hand, “If you don’t want to die, hand it over to me!!”
Tesoro’s face was solemn.
Doflamingo, the guy who discharges electricity, and this giant!
Trouble! But at this time.
“Damn it!!”
At the back of the inner field, under the knocked-down wall, a figure shot up and headed directly towards the stage.
“You are looking for death!!”
Hanafuza, the Seven Warlords of the Sea, was angry!
“Hehehehe! We have material for tomorrow’s news!”
Morgans laughed.
Ian’s mouth curled slightly.
It’s very interesting, isn’t it? I stayed up late watching the game last night. Should I say that Topsports is still the same Topsports? It always makes a big splash when you have high hopes for it
