Rogge smiled indifferently: "How about it, are we qualified to participate in the auction?" ”

"Yes...... There is a ......" The waiter was so frightened that he couldn't stop swallowing his saliva and said in a panic: "Your bidding items are too precious, I have to report to the manager to receive ...... in person"

He turned sharply, swished, and ran away like a gust of wind.

Lorna snorted, "What a snob! Bow down and look down on people! ”

"This kind of place, it's normal......" Rogge didn't care.

After a while, the hostess came over with a man, and he said in a trembling voice, "Our manager said that he can't receive you either, this is ...... This is the owner of our Tokai Auction House, Lord Sotheby! ”

Rogge glanced at the boss and saw that he was obviously only middle-aged, but he had white hair, gold-rimmed glasses, looked calm and shrewd, and had a meticulous professional smile on his mouth.

"Hello, I'm Sotheby, the owner of this auction house."

Rogge saw that he stretched out his hand, so he also reached over and shook it with him, only a slight shake, both of them were slightly surprised, although they did not use force, but those who have been tempered and fought for a long time can immediately feel each other's strength from each other's hands.

"Hello, I'm here to auction a Devil Fruit, may I ask, how is the commission charged here?" Rogge withdrew his right hand and asked without humility or arrogance

Sosby smiled and said, "Do you want to sit down in our VIP room and have a cup of tea before talking?" ”

"It's better to say it first...... Rogge didn't want to be poured ecstasy soup, so when he went to the VIP room, he had a high-end tea and the like, and after a while, he felt that he had really become a high-end person, and maybe he fell into some trap.

Sosby still smiled and said: "Well, our East China Sea Auction House is the largest auction house in the entire East China Sea, and it has always been a fair and just auction house, which can ensure the absolute safety of every auctioneer and bidder, and has never missed a hand." It's just that the commission ratio is naturally higher...... 20% of the transaction price is to be drawn. ”

Rogge's eyes widened sharply when he heard this: "What? Twenty percent?! ”

Lorna also said angrily: "Hey, don't bully us who haven't seen the world!" All auction houses, taking 5% commission is not countable, you actually ask for 20% of the commission when the lion opens his mouth, it is too much! ”

Sotheby is still calm: "Our East China Sea Auction House is the largest auction house in the entire East China Sea, and it has always been a child's undeceptive, fair and just, and able to protect ......."

"Stop, stop! If that's the case, we won't be auctioning with you!" I don't believe I can't find any other auction house......" Rhona said angrily.

Rogge also pondered for a moment, and said with a slight smile: "I think so too, so...... Goodbye! ”

Sosby was stunned for a moment, and then said with a smile: "Our East China Sea Auction House is the entire East China Sea ......"

Sou!

Rog, Rhona, and Lars had already flown out, escaping from the man who was full of fake smiles but chattering.

Seeing the three of them running out, the receptionist on the side said in a trembling voice: "Old ...... Boss, a Devil Fruit! I heard that the big boss has been sending people to look for him, do you plan to let it go? ”

Sosby narrowed his eyes, lowered his head, and showed a sneer: "Don't rush...... In the entire East China Sea, why do you think something can escape the palm of our Pansella?! ”

He clenched his fists slightly.

"Damn! What the hell is a Tokai auction house! I actually have to take a commission of 20%! If our Devil Fruit could be auctioned off for 100 million Baileys, wouldn't they be able to get 20 million for nothing? It's so overbearing! Lorna walked out of the Tokai auction house, still indignant.

"That's it! Twenty million, that's too domineering! Speaking ......" Lars asked timidly, as he pandered to Rhona, "What is Bailey?" ”

Bang!

Rhona slammed another punch into his head.

"Read well!"

Rogge also sighed: "This may be the so-called shopkeeper bullying...... Don't be afraid, let's ask other auction houses......"

The three of them inquired and found another auction house, but strangely, as soon as the owner of that auction house heard that Rogge was going to auction the Devil Fruit, he was immediately frightened and waved his hand again and again, and hurriedly refused.

Although it was strange, Rogge was helpless, and asked the other two one after another, but as soon as he heard the name of the Devil Fruit, all the bosses were the same, and even hurriedly closed the store in fright.

"Strange...... Even if the Devil Fruit is a very sensitive thing, at most it will not be auctioned, how can it be scared like this? Rhona thought as she gently hooked her fingers to her lips.

Rogge also frowned: "It's really a little wrong......"

"Will it ...... Is that the East China Sea Auction House doing it? Lars said busily.

"It's possible, but we've just found other auction houses right out there, and they can't be faster than us, did someone explain anything beforehand......" Rogge thought as he pinched his chin.

Luo Na said hatefully: "I think it's the guys from the East China Sea Auction House, maybe, in order to monopolize the market, they threatened other auction houses in advance not to auction Devil Fruits!" ”

Rogge nodded, "It's very likely, but ...... They're just an auction house, how can they have so much energy to make their peers so submissive......"

"Hey, anyway, it seems that this Devil Fruit is not so easy to sell...... I don't want to go back and beg the ghost boss of the East China Sea Auction House! Rhona snorted.

Rogge also smiled: "Even if we think of other ways, we can't let them take advantage of us." Let's go, let's figure out how to do it as we go......"

The three of them walked all the way, scolding the Donghai Auction House, and unconsciously seemed to have come to a bustling square area.

"Oh, it's so lively up there......" Lars said excitedly.

"Indeed, there are a lot of people watching, is it a famous place?" Lorna also took the hand to build a tent, looked into the distance and asked curiously.

Rogge's heart suddenly moved, and suddenly he became excited.

"There...... Isn't it just ......"

"What?"

"The central square of Rogue Town...... One Piece, Gore M. Where D. Roger was executed! ”

"Huh?!"

Luo Na couldn't help blushing, and covered her face with excitement and said, "That...... Well, you have to check it out! He's the number one in our pirate world! ”

"yes, yes! Check it out! "Lars didn't really know who Roger was......

Rogge and the two of them walked quickly forward, all the way in the direction of the crowded crowd, and in the distance, they could already see the high execution platform, standing majestically, after decades of wind and rain.

In the eyes of the Navy and the World Government, this is a place that symbolizes absolute justice and absolute power, and a sacred place to deter pirates and evil people all over the world.

However, in the eyes of the pirates, this is the place where a legend ends, and at the same time, it is also the starting point of a new era of pirates.

Wealth, fame, power - the man who once had everything in this world: One Piece Gore D. Roger's words before his execution made people all over the world rush to the sea!

"Want my wealth? If you want it, I'll give it all to you, go find it! I'm putting everything in the world out there!" So the men set off on the great voyage to pursue their dreams, and the era of pirates has arrived!

That lingering, thunderous words suddenly resounded in Rogge's ears like thunder, and that was the beginning of everything......

Rogge couldn't help but tremble slightly, and the impassioned music seemed to sound in his ears, and the picture of the legendary story that accompanied the music was opened...... Even, when it came to his past life and present life, all kinds of emotions came to his heart, making Rogge feel a sense of tears!

"Wow...... This is where One Piece was executed! I'm so excited! ”

Suddenly, a man's voice came.

Rogge suddenly had a strange feeling in his heart, this voice ......

He tilted his head slightly, and he saw ......

A straw hat.

And a smile that is extremely excited and bright as the sun.

"Road...... Luffy? ”

The two protagonists in the story, finally, in the central square of Rogue Town, in the last generation of One Piece King Gor. In front of the execution table where D. Roger was executed, a fateful encounter was made!

"Hey, who's calling me?" Luffy pressed his straw hat and looked at Rog with wide eyes.

Rogge was slightly stunned, and then smiled: "It's me, you're Straw Hat Luffy, I've seen your bounty order, 30 million Bailey, which is one of the few in the entire East China Sea." ”

Luffy listened with a trademark laugh, "Really, really?" You guys actually know me, am I already so famous? Hahahaha, I said, what's your name? ”

Rogge smiled: "My name is Rogge, and I am also a pirate. ”

"Oh? Rogge, isn't this this place, aren't you a local, it's really interesting......" Luffy said with a smile, in a very happy mood.

"I was adopted here by my father, but my home is in Coconut Town, Tillus Island in the East China Sea, and I went to sea to follow in my father's footsteps." Rogge laughed.

"Oh, that's right, so you're also a pirate, so you're here to see the place where One Piece was executed?"

"yes, so am I...... Those who want to become the king of the pirates! ”

Luffy glanced at him, slightly stunned, and then pressed the straw hat again, revealing a big laugh: "Yes, but One Piece must be mine, if you want to grab it, it's good to have a fight when the time comes!" ”

"Definitely." Rogge smiled.

At this moment, there was a sudden commotion in the square, and a group of naval soldiers poured in.

"Catch Straw Hat Luffy! A bounty of 30 million pirates! ”

Luffy sighed, looked around, but didn't look scared at all, but laughed again: "There are so many navies, it seems that I'm really famous!" ”

Bang bang bang!

The group of navies saw Luffy's straw hat and immediately recognized him, and in an instant, dozens of spears fired at the same time, and dozens of bullets whizzed in the direction of Luffy and Rog.

"Be careful!"

Luffy's body swelled into a large balloon, and he was instantly dented by the bullets, but he was not hurt at all, and with a sudden force, all the bullets that hit him bounced back, but injured the Navy soldiers a lot.

He shouted, but it was a reminder to Rogge.

But Rogge smiled slightly, and didn't even dodge, the bullet hit him, through the tree holes, but then immediately began to heal slowly.

"Oh? You're so powerful, are you also a Devil Fruit ability? Luffy laughed and clapped his hands.

Rogge stretched out a finger, a bud grew on it, and said with a smile: "Well, I'm a tree man who ate the wood fruit, these navies are too troublesome, how about we go up there and talk?" ”

As he spoke, he stretched out his hand and pointed that it was none other than One Piece Gore Brown. The direction of the execution table where D. Roger was executed!
