The decoration of the auction hall is similar to that of the opera hall, with the seats on the first floor spread out in a semi-circular shape, and where each seat is facing, there is an auction table that everyone can see.

On the second floor, there are individual boxes embedded in the wall, each with a staircase that falls diagonally to the auction table.

At this time, the venue was overcrowded.

Even the second-floor box with harsh conditions is full.

On the splendid auction table, a middle-aged auctioneer with a calm face is congratulating the buyer who has just bought a female slave in an impassioned tone.

In the seat near the front row, Thor's eyes chased after the female slave who had just been photographed by someone else, and his wolf-like gaze swept over the sensitive parts of the female slave.

"Gollum."

Thor couldn't help but swallow.

It wasn't until the slave girl was sent back backstage that he smacked his lips with regret.

Next to him, Arthur silently moved to the side.

"It's so white, it's big."

Thor sighed, wiped the saliva that had accidentally flowed out with his hand, and then wiped Arthur's clothes along the way.

"You're ......!"

Arthur looked at Thor in shock and anger, resisting the urge to put the seat over Thor head.

Thor looked as if nothing had happened, and the old god was crossing Erlang's legs.

Arthur endured it, only blaming himself for having to sit next to Thor.

"Later, it's probably going to be lively."

Suddenly, Arthur heard Thor's whispering to himself.

"What do you mean?"

He looked at Thor in confusion.

Thor grinned and whispered to himself, "Anything that can easily touch people's hearts......"

"Huh?"

Arthur's face straightened, as if he realized something.

Then, he heard Thor's next words.

"It's often like, it's easy to get some people's eyes dirty."

“……”

On the auction table, the middle-aged auctioneer opened his arms, and his tone was always passionate and powerful.

"The next item will be the last slave to be auctioned tonight, as the finale of the slave category, I guess it will not disappoint you, so please take a look."

As the last byte fell, he flickered his arms and pointed to the left side of the auction table.

With the rumbling sound of wheels rolling, a cart with a cast iron cage was pushed to the center of the auction table by two powerful staff.

Inside the cage, a fish-man with an earthy yellow body sat cross-legged, his sturdy body wrapped in chains that could not be broken.

The fish-man lowered his head, as still as a dead thing.

His physical signs were good, but he exuded a gray air all over his body.

The auctioneer walked over to the edge of the cage and smiled:

"This is the slave finale for tonight, the Cone Tooth Shark Man, and I know that those who like this item will be prepared, and those who hate it will be uninterested."

"So, allow me to skip the introduction and go straight to the next step of product presentation."

As soon as the auctioneer's words fell, the staff member on the other side of the cage pressed a button on the cart.

Zizi ——!

Suddenly, a bright electric current rushed through the fish-man's body.

"Ahhh

Receiving this electric shock, the fish-man, who was lifeless a second ago, suddenly writhed wildly at this time, opened his mouth wide and screamed miserably.

As a result, the large mouth reveals the characteristics of a conetooth shark man - dense sharp teeth in both vertical and horizontal directions.

In the seats, the buyers who came for the fishmen were already ready to move, and when they entered the auction, they would be the first to raise their signs.

Kazit is one of them.

This fish-man slave will be his inevitable commodity.

.........

Backstage behind the curtain of the auction table, there are cages of slaves held in disorder.

These slaves were almost all first-class women, and of course, there were a few strong male slaves.

And whether it was a female slave or a male slave, at this time, they listened to the terrible screams coming from the auction table, and they all bowed their heads and were silent, and their eyes were full of defeat.

Among these cages is a cage that is more like a pet crate, and inside is a white, slender skunk.

Strangely, this skunk not only stinks, but even exudes a strange aroma.

The skunk curled up in its cage, its human dark eyes staring at the human slaves present.

The eyes that are no different from those of human beings do not have the slightest consciousness of being a cage.

He looked at the slaves as if he were looking at a bunch of poor bastards.

.............

The night is getting darker, and the coolness is coming with the wind.

Maud quietly followed the three prey.

Shortly after they left, several more drunken men walked out of the tavern and in a certain direction down the street.

After the men had walked some distance, Sabo pushed open the door of the tavern and walked out.

Without a trace, he glanced at the men who had already walked some distance, but they acted in a surprising consistency with Maude, and quietly followed behind them.

Maud, who is in the opposite direction, is ignorant of this.

He followed the three prey all the way, but never found a suitable opportunity to get off.

However, he was not in a hurry at all.

As long as you can secure the income, it doesn't matter if you wait until dawn.

This is one of his hunting principles.

Maud hung far behind her prey.

Time passed, very quickly, half an hour passed.

It was also at this time that Maude finally waited for his chance.

Seeing that the three prey finally stopped wandering around and turned into a laneway, Maude's eyes lit up and quickly followed.

The three men on their shoulders were unaware that a grim reaper hung behind them.

They walked aimlessly down the alleyway, and somehow they saw a bar with a business lamp at the end of a narrow alley.

"Hey, there's a bar in this kind of place?"

One of the men rubbed his eyes, a little surprised.

"Do you want to have a few more drinks?"

"Okay."

The wine was aroused, and several men were interested.

Bang bang –

At this moment, two gunshots rang out in the alleyway without warning.

The hot buckshot sliced through the air and struck two of the men on the backs, sending out two striking blood flowers that fell forward.

"Huh?"

The last man who hadn't been shot reacted violently, and without hesitation, he pulled one of his fellow gunners, who was about to fall to the ground, in front of him as a shield, while looking in the direction where the lead bullet was flying.

Bang –

Another shot rang out.

The companion who was used as a shield added another blood flower to his back.

At the other end of the alleyway, Maude, who fired a third shot, was surprised.

He had a total of three guns with him, so he was able to fire three shots in a short time.

The first two shots were left and right shots, and the flintlock pistols were used to hit the two prey with guns on them.

Of course, in order to harvest experience, he deliberately avoided the vital points.

Then, he quickly switched to [Usopp] and fired at the last prey with the knife.

It's just that he didn't expect that the reaction of the last prey with the knife would be so fast, and it was extremely ruthless, and he used his companion as a shield without even thinking about it.

Thinking that the two prey who had been shot would bleed too much and die in a short period of time, Maud decisively threw away [Usopp] and rushed towards the knife-carrying man who used his companion as a shield.

When the man with the knife saw Maude rushing over, his eyes changed, and he hesitated slightly, and instead of drawing the flintlock pistol that his fellow Arrow had on his waist, he pushed his companion away and drew his long knife.

At this moment, Maude was already close, holding a dagger and attacking the man with the knife.

The man with the knife did not retreat, but advanced, took a big step forward, and without hesitation, raised his knife and stabbed Maude.

He wanted to take advantage of the length of his weapon and take out Maude with one sword.

However, Maud suddenly lowered his body, narrowly avoiding the straight stab, and then, two sword lights flashed in an instant.

Maud walked past the knife-carrying man, and immediately turned sharply, slowing down with his heel against the ground while looking at the knife-carrying man's back.

Moments later, a bloody arrow erupted from the wrist and throat of the man with the knife.

The whole process is in the middle of light.

Seeing the knife-carrying man spurting blood, Maude rushed forward in a few steps, stabbed the knife-carrying man in the back of the waist with a dagger, and at the same time pressed the knife-carrying man to the ground.

Then, he quickly searched for the bounty order from the prey that had lost its combat effectiveness, and swept it at a glance.

After confirming the names, he immediately summoned the notebook and quickly wrote down the information of the three prey with a quill pen before they swallowed their last breath.

"Caught up."

Writing the last word, Maude slowly breathed a sigh of relief.

"Tsk."

At this moment, a surprised sound suddenly came from the end of the alleyway behind him.

Maud was startled when she heard this, and reflexively withdrew the hunter's note.

The bloodstains on the notes suddenly turned into droplets of blood and fell to the ground.

After that, he squatted down in a stride, drew the flintlock pistol from the waist of his prey, and then turned around and aimed the muzzle of the gun at the owner of the sound.
