Chapter 99: The Slave in the Cage
A few minutes later, when it was finally his turn to review, Mu Qingxiao came to a low table, and across from him sat a dwarf with a slave collar around his neck.
"This brother, looking at you, it should be the first time to come, right? I wonder what type of slave you're here to sell? Our Venice auction reputation is guaranteed, and the price is absolutely fair. ”
Mu Qingxiao said: "I'm here to sell myself." ”
As soon as the words fell, the surroundings became extremely quiet, and everyone's eyes converged on Mu Qingxiao's body, full of complicated expressions.
Hearing this, the dwarf was stunned, subconsciously glanced at Lei Li, and then looked at Mu Qingxiao's eyes and became flat: "Let's talk about it, what are your specialties, the more specialties you have, the more practical it is, and the higher the auction price." ”
Mu Qingxiao didn't know how to answer for a while, he couldn't say that he was good at thirty-two ventriloquism, seventy-two variations, right? Or is it super strong? That's not very good, right?
"My strength is great, well, innate divine power!" After saying that, Mu Qingxiao slapped the table in front of him, and the solid wooden table suddenly exploded, scaring the dwarfs in front of him.
Reilly, who was sitting in the shadows, suddenly stopped drinking, raised his head to look at Mu Qingxiao, his deep eyes were full of curiosity.
Coming back to his senses, the dwarf said to the guards beside him, "What are you still standing?" Go get him a slave collar and lock him up with the newly-arrived slave, and the auction order will be arranged later. ”
The two guards did not refute, but put a slave collar on Mu Qingxiao as quickly as possible, and finally locked him in a huge cage in the background.
Mu Qingxiao casually found a box to sit on it, and carefully looked at Reilly on the opposite side.
And Reilly also noticed Mu Qingxiao's gaze, took a sip of wine, smiled kindly, and said, "Little brother, since you have such an ability, what should you do?" Why sell yourself? ”
"Well, I just thought it was fun, so I'll give it a try."
Reilly nodded and didn't reply, sitting alone in the shadows, not knowing what he was thinking?
It is estimated that there will be a while before the auction starts, Mu Qingxiao is leaning against the wall, closing his eyes and recuperating, the plot is estimated to develop according to the script, Luffy knocks Charross unconscious, and Admiral Yellow Ape attacks.
Thinking of this, Mu Qingxiao had a feeling that he was about to move, and he could infer his strength against the yellow ape, which was really a rare opportunity.
Suddenly, a crisp female noise interrupted Mu Qingxiao's thoughts.
"Ah...... You scoundrels, let go of me, it hurts, let go of me! ”
Accompanied by the woman's scream, there was also a man's impatient voice: "It's really troublesome to hold her down for me, if it's not for fear of damaging the auction price, let alone a woman, even if you are a mermaid, I will you hard!" ”
Immediately afterward, two guards carried a mermaid who was struggling violently into the cage.
This female mermaid has turquoise hair, is dressed in youthful clothes, her pink scale tail is dragging on the ground, and her eyes are full of tears, this familiar mermaid is none other than Kemi of Fish-Man Island.
It only took a moment for Kemi, who was put on a slave collar, to stop struggling, her brown eyes revealing endless fear, and of course she knew what was on her neck.
"Don't! Hachi, Brother Luffy, come and save me! ”
Looking at the teary-eyed Kemi, Mu Qingxiao didn't say anything, and Reilly, who was in the shadows, heard the words Hachi and Luffy, a trace of doubt flashed in his eyes, and he took out the wine jug and took a sip, with an inexplicable smile on the corner of his mouth.
At this time, the giant next to Reilly woke up from his slumber, touched his hair in a daze, and looked at the surrounding situation with hazy eyes, and his eyes suddenly became gloomy.
When he paid attention to Reilly next to him, he couldn't help asking, "Old man, why is the aura on your body so terrifying?" Who the hell are you? ”
Hearing the giant's words, Reilly burst out laughing, "Hahahaha...... I was just a scruffy coater who lost all my money in the casino and had to sell myself to pay off my debts. ”
The giant pursed his lips, obviously not believing Reilly's words, and then glanced at Mu Qingxiao vaguely, closed his eyes, and remained silent.
For a moment, the atmosphere in the cage became somewhat silent, and no one spoke except for the sobs of the slaves.
......
......
At this time, Marin burned more, in the office of Lieutenant General Karp.
The gray-haired Karp sat in his chair, not the slightest nervous in the face of the impending war on top, holding a bag full of senbei in his hand, and taking a sip of tea from time to time.
"Immortal Reilly, is there still a brat from the Johnston Holy Family?"
The adjutant in front of Karp, who was about to pour tea, heard his words and hurriedly answered.
"According to the information from the surrounding eyeliner, the auction house did not find the identities of the two, only that the Hades King was a useless old man, and the bounty hunter Mu Qingxiao was not recognized."
Karp couldn't help but laugh out loud when he heard the adjutant's report.
"Hahahaha...... Do you want to auction Hades and top Draconians at the Human Auction? Hades aside, Mu Qingxiao's kid is definitely not a master to mess with, don't look at him who has been silent for two years, this auction is really interesting! ”
The adjutant said nervously: "If the two of them are really the deities, then it is incredible, lieutenant general, do you need to notify the marshal of the Warring States?" ”
"No, I'll handle this matter, and I'm not allowed to say it to anyone, including Sengoku, and tell your subordinates not to talk too much."
The adjutant picked up the teapot to fill himself with tea, and asked with some confusion: "But, if it is really me......
"It must be me, there will be no mistake, Reilly should have lost all his gambling money and was ready to sell himself, as for Mu Qingxiao, although I haven't met him in person, but don't forget what happened two years ago, as well as his other identity."
"Don't worry about that kid, I also want to see what tricks this Draconian wants to do? As for Reilly, even if he is a veteran, if he dares to confront Reilly, it is likely to bring unexpected heavy losses to our army. ”
"Especially at this time, do you want the Navy to fight against two legendary characters at the same time?"
Hearing this, the adjutant suddenly woke up, thought of the legend of the Hades King Reilly and the Four Emperors Whitebeard, and immediately understood the meaning.
"Yes, Lieutenant General, my subordinates promise to personally handle this matter and never leak a little rumor."
After the adjutant left the office, Karp put down the teacup in his hand, and what he said just now did not raise a few people in a slightest, although the navy was not afraid, he did not want to deal with Reilly.
First, it is a long-term friendship, and second, this old friend is no longer a pirate, so let him be a coating craftsman in the Chambord Islands.
