Chapter 299: Swamp Fruit

"Fifteen million Bailey."

"Sixty-three million Bailey!"

"Seventy million Bailey!"

The attraction of the good fast knife should not be underestimated, in less than half a minute, there were more than a dozen people bidding, and in the case of each price increase of at least one million Baileys, the price also soared all the way up, and in a blink of an eye, it came to 70 million Baileys.

And the Wind Pirates, on their part, were not in a hurry to join the auction as soon as possible.

At the signal of Xia Nuo, Kira, who was in charge of holding the number plate, waited until the price climbed to more than 80 million Baileys, and after most of the buyers had given up, he directly shouted out 90 million Baileys and opened the price difference, so that the remaining few people instantly cut off the idea of continuing to compete, and included this good knife in their pockets in one fell swoop.

And the next few auction items, the quality is generally said to be in the past, there are precious spices from foreign countries, there are commemorative historical relics, and even the auction of the entire ship, but these are of little use to the current Tempest Pirates, so Xia Nuo is not even interested in making people raise their cards and play tickets.

After about half an hour, the process of the auction gradually came to an end, but the enthusiastic atmosphere on the scene did not decrease but increased, everyone knew that the more precious things are, the more they will be put in the finale, and this auction is obviously no exception.

Sure enough, when the transaction of another auction item was over, Goatee reappeared on the stage in the center, and his expression was obviously much more solemn.

He carefully placed the black box he was holding on the table, slowly opened it, and showed the contents of it to everyone's eyes through the image refracted on the big screen by the video phone bug.

"That's ......"

The moment the picture changed, the entire auction hall entered a boiling state, and exclamations were everywhere, and many people even subconsciously stood up from their seats.

I saw that in the black wooden box, on the milky white velvet base cloth, a dark green fruit was lying there safely, the whole was slightly oval, and the surface had a strange spiral pattern.

Devil Fruits!

After all, this is an important transit point for the Great Route, and those who come to participate in the auction have some knowledge, so almost no one present at this moment does not know how important this seemingly ordinary fruit thing is.

"That's right, as you can see, the finale of this auction is this Devil Fruit."

Seeing that the atmosphere in the auction hall was ignited, the goatee in the middle touched his beard proudly, and when everyone's eyes were focused on his face again, he said with a smile:

"This is something that our Chamber of Commerce spent a lot of effort to fight for by chance, and according to the records of the Devil Fruit Illustrated Book, if there is no mistake or omission, this Devil Fruit is still a precious swamp fruit in the natural system!"

After adding this sentence, the hotness of the atmosphere in the entire auction hall suddenly went to a higher level!

"Nature's Fruit!"

"The gossip that circulated before is actually true!"

"I didn't expect that the fruit of the sea thief butcher Tado finally fell into the hands of the Gil Yin Chamber of Commerce......"

The discussion was loud, noisy and chaotic, and most of the people were shocked and a little incredulous, but some of them didn't seem to be very surprised, obviously they had heard the relevant news through some channels before, or simply came to the auction for this.

"Swamp Fruit ......"

On the side of the Wind Pirates, many of the crew members were also in a state of shock, and then they looked at each other, and their eyes turned to Xia no at the same time.

The latter still had a trace of stunned expression in his expression at the moment, but he quickly reacted, and his eyes quickly turned to the excited Kelal in the stands opposite, and muttered to himself:

"That's ...... so"

Everything is figured out.

No wonder Kylal will appear at this auction, no wonder he hasn't participated in the auction until now, it turns out that from the beginning, he came for this!

Natural, swamp fruit......

Perhaps in the eyes of ordinary people, this is just a fruit that should be very powerful in theory, but for the old members of the Tado Pirates, it is their captain - one of the most important symbols of Tado, a gift that carries countless good memories after years of getting along.

There was no doubt about that, especially when the Tado Pirates were almost wiped out, leaving only Becky and Kerral, and the bond of affection became even stronger, and watching this relic-like fruit grow back and fall into the hands of someone else was obviously something that Kellar couldn't accept.

The reason why Xia no quickly thought of this was because in the original book, Luffy resolutely signed up for the arena duel because the Don Quixote family released the burnt fruit as bait, and even Sapo traveled thousands of miles to Dressrosa to participate in the competition.

And how similar is the situation in front of us......

"It seems that everyone knows a lot about the origin of this fruit."

At this time, after hearing the discussion, Goatee had a smile on his face even more, and his tone became more and more incendiary and tempting, "Yes, this is the magic fruit that made Tado from the East China Sea from a small pirate with a bounty of millions to a supernova of over 100 million, and now, here, you only need to spend some price, you can have the opportunity to usher in the same transformation as Tado......"

After a pause, he looked around, raised the small wooden hammer in his hand, and shouted in a deep voice:

"Now, I announce that item No. 039 in this auction is officially open!"

"The starting price, 120 million Bailey! Each increase must not be less than 10 million Baileys! ”

Rumble!

With the fall of this sentence, the atmosphere of the entire auction finally reached its peak, and countless number plates scrambled to be raised, and even the goatee was a little too late to repeat it.

"130 million Bailey!"

"140 million Bailey!"

"160 million Bailey!"

…………

The auction price soared wildly, and in a blink of an eye, it was about 200 million Baileys, which was simply terrifyingly high, enough to discourage many rich people, but there were still about a dozen people on the field, and they continued to bid after me!

Kira, next to "Captain......" reminded softly, casting an inquiring look.

"Don't rush yet."

Xia Nuo shook his head slightly, his eyes kept staring at the stands in the distance opposite, Kairal's face was ugly at the moment, obviously he didn't expect the auction price to rise so quickly, he held the number plate tightly in his hand, and he didn't see him raise it for a long time.

"I guess the financial resources are not enough......"

Xia Nuo sighed with some regret in his heart, he thought that it would be best for Uncle Kairal to take pictures by himself, but after all, the price was too high, if it really didn't work, he could only do it for him and take down the fruit.

Anyway, in this regard, he now thinks the same as Biki Kelal, this fruit is an important thing left by Tado, and it must not fall into the hands of outsiders again!

However, at this moment, Kairal, who was on the other side, suddenly gritted his teeth and raised the number plate in his hand violently.

"Two hundred and thirty million Baileys!"

"Two hundred and thirty million Baileys, two hundred and thirty million Baileys!" Goatee repeated again in surprise, it was naturally a good thing for him to see more people participating in the auction, "This gentleman bid 230 million Bailey, is there anything higher than him?" ”

The atmosphere in the field was silent for a while, and Kailar directly raised 30 million Bailey this time, which brought the price of the fruit to a higher price level, and the few people who were originally stubbornly followed suddenly came to an abrupt end, only two or three people hesitated and waited for a moment before continuing to follow up.

"Two hundred and fifty million Baileys!"

The first to follow was a fat man with a fat head and big ears, who was already sweating profusely in late spring, wearing an expensive casual suit, with bright jewels on his body, and his greedy eyes were firmly fixed on the fruit, as if he was bound to win it.
