"A famous sword, Konpira!!"
As Richard lifted the cover on the tray, a long knife with a white handle and red scabbard on it appeared in front of everyone.
Kaishu's eyes were fixed on the item, and then a thoughtful smile appeared on the corner of his mouth.
"What's the matter, brother?"
Kaido noticed the slight change in Kaishu, so he asked curiously.
"Nothing, that sword is quite good. I want it!"
At this time, Richard, on the stage, also announced the reserved price of the item.
"The auction starts now, with a starting price of 200 million Belly, and each increment cannot be less than 10 million Belly!"
As soon as Richard finished speaking, the swordsmen at the scene couldn't wait to bid.
"Two hundred and ten million..."
"Two hundred and fifty million!"
"Three hundred million..."
"330 million..."
...
"500 million!"
Kaishu calmly said a number, which made the already intense atmosphere of the auction house quiet down.
Everyone stared blankly at Kaishu.
Only this time, no one dared to threaten or clamor.
These two people are ruthless people who dare to kill in Captain Captain John's auction house!!
Moreover, many people have already recognized the two of them.
It's the infamous Barbarossa brothers. Evil Ghost, Kaishu, and Azure Dragon, Kaido!
They are the remnants of the Rocks Pirate, who have disappeared for 2 months and are equivalent to big pirates like Captain John, with a bounty of more than 600 million.
"Going once for 500 million Belly..."
"Going twice for 500 million Belly..."
"Going thrice for 500 million Belly..."
"This item is sold to the gentleman right here!"
This time, Richard didn't stop in a daze but quickly knocked down the hammer.
With Kaishu's successful purchase of the famous sword 'Konpira,' he looks forward to the next item.
But to his disappointment, the next item was a boring slave auction.
Until...
"Next is the final slave for today."
Because the auction went smoothly this time, and many items were sold at a good price.
Especially 'Konpira,' which was sold for 500 million Belly.
This excites Richard, who will get a dividend, to the point that even though the auction has already gone for a long time, his voice is still full of passion.
"She's from the Grand Line and, with the strength of a swordsman, the most beautiful geisha of the sea, Gion!!"
As soon as his words fell, many nobles who stayed behind became excited. They started to gear up and look forward to it.
A woman with long dark brown hair, a slave collar, and a pair of exposed long legs was brought to the stage.
Unlike the other slaves who had just been auctioned off, this woman's eyes were not lifeless and numb but full of stubbornness.
However, after seeing the countless pairs of eyes with malicious intentions in the audience, there was still fear and confusion in her eyes.
She is the most beautiful geisha in Grand Line, Gion.
(A geisha refers to someone who sells her art but not her body; a prostitute is a prostitute; a famous geisha in the sea is similar to an idol, but the name is different.)
Richard continued: "If you buy her, you can not only enjoy the most beautiful performance but also enjoy the body of the most beautiful geisha ever. Moreover, you can also obtain a strong bodyguard."
"It's simply a priceless treasure!!"
"The starting price is 300 million Belly, and each increment cannot be less than 50 million Belly!"
"It's finally started!"
"I have brought most of my assets this time, so I must take the most beautiful geisha into my house! 350 million Belly..."
"400 million!"
"A strong swordswoman slave for 400 million Belly? And it's a swordswoman I can play, too. I'll bid 500 million Belly!"
"Hmph, 600 million Belly!"
"This woman is mine, 700 million Belly!"
"..."
As soon as Richard finished speaking, many aristocrats started bidding higher.
Many people are interested in it, since not only can you play with her, but she can also protect you!
The key is that she is still so beautiful, coupled with her status as the most beautiful geisha in the sea. It is pretty exciting to think about it.
Looking at those ugly faces and lustful eyes that wish to strip themselves naked.
Gion's face slowly became pale, and she clenched her fist hard. The fear in her heart seemed to swallow her up!
"One billion Belly!!"
At this time, a cold voice suppressed the noisy scene.
Gion couldn't help but look up and see a tall person with two horns.
To her surprise, there is no evil desire in his eyes, but appreciation and...pain?
"Brother, do we have that much Belly?"
Kaido, who was sitting next to Kaishu, touched his horn and asked with doubt.
Although they have robbed a lot of treasures while on the Rocks Pirate these years, the two brothers also spent a lot of money. The resources for training alone are no less than 500 million Belly each year.
After the disbandment of Rocks Pirate, each captain gets a share of about one billion worth of treasures.
But with the consumption of these two months, plus the two treasures they just bought, there shouldn't be much money left.
"Belly? We are pirates. Do we need money to buy things?"
Kaishu looked at Kaido in surprise and said: "If you want it, just grab it!"
His voice was not loud, but it resounded clearly throughout the auction house.
"Ah!!"
Kaido seemed to come to his senses suddenly, and he said loudly: "Brother is right. I almost forgot. If I can grab it with my ability, why do I need to pay?"
"Are... are they crazy?"
"They said such things here, don't they know that this...is Captain John's territory..."
"Hey, this is interesting! Are the remnants from Rocks Pirates fighting each other?"
"Two brats who don't know the Immensity of Heaven and Earth..."
"I know them. Those two are Kaishu and Kaido, who have a bounty of over 600 million Belly."
"So what? Captain John is a great pirate with a bounty of 1.2 billion Belly!"
"Interesting..."
Hearing the conversation between Kaishu and Kaido, the auction house exploded instantly, and everyone was shocked by their words.
At this time, they openly declared war on Captain John!!!
Author Notes: In addition to being a powerful swordsman, I guess that she might be a geisha before becoming a Marine. Of course, I might be slapped in the face by Oda in the future...
