ALL NOVEL
Chapter 568
The entrance of the mermaid Camie immediately pushed the atmosphere of the auction to its climax.
Under the dazzling lights, the entire auction hall was filled with exclamations, for the appearance of the mermaid Camie.
Even at the largest auction house in the Sabaody Archipelago, it’s rare to see a beautiful species like a mermaid for several years. I didn’t expect to be met by them today.
“It’s great, this is the best that can’t be met easily.” In the crowd, a prince wearing a crown was full of excitement.
Bam, bam, bam…
The auctioneer on the stage tapped the table several times with the mallet in his hand, and the noisy auction room became a little quieter, but there were still many mermaids appearing and chatting in low voices.
“Everyone, everyone knows that mermaids are the fastest swimming creatures in the sea. In addition, it is generally difficult for mermaids to appear in the human world, so we all know that mermaids are very difficult to catch. In order to catch this mermaid, our auction house wasted a lot of manpower, and finally caught this mermaid Camie from Fish-Man Island.”
Just when the auctioneer introduced to himself, how much effort they had to catch this mermaid, and how rare it was.
But he didn’t realize that Camie, who was locked in the glass fish tank, was tightly stuck to the glass, and his eyes anxiously scanned the dense crowd of people in front of him who were extremely excited by his appearance.
Eyes full of anticipation quickly scanned each area, but still did not find Hatchan and the others sitting on the auction stand, and the anticipation in their eyes weakened a little bit.
Suddenly, a happy smile appeared on Camie’s face. Where his eyes fell, Nami and others were standing there behind the auction booth.
Camie shouted in the message: “Great, Hatchan and the others are here to save me.”
After the auction, everyone looked at Camie who was right in front of them, and they couldn’t help showing a trace of nervousness on their faces. Now it’s really time to compete for Camie.
“Okay, let’s take a picture of Camie, we have 200 million Berry.” Nami’s eyes revealed the confidence that she must win.
Saint Charlos sucked the snot that was about to fall, and looked at Cammie who’s suffering nausea, “That’s great! A mermaid! I didn’t expect there were actually mermaids being sold here.”
Holding the microphone in his hand, the auctioneer’s face was full of smiles. Looking at the excited and passionate eyes of these people in front of him, the auctioneer knew that the price of this mermaid might far exceed his estimate.
“Everyone, let’s stop talking nonsense. Mermaids are a rare species. Everyone who arrived here today, don’t miss this opportunity. Let us reveal the starting price of Mermaid Camie…”
“500 million!”
Just when the auctioneer was about to announce the starting price, the word 500 million exploded like a thunderbolt from the auction house.
Originally, many guys who were planning to take pictures of the mermaid were directly startled by the 500 million figure shouted out in the venue. The noisy auction venue fell into an eerie silence in an instant.
Although everyone guessed in their hearts that the price of this mermaid was terrifyingly high, they did not expect that someone would auction off the price of 500 million without even calling out the low price.
500 million is not 500,000 nor 5 million. This is a terrifying number. Many of them are from nobles, and some are even princes. But if they are asked to come up with above 500 million, there are a few who can do it.
Even if there is someone who can use 500 million to buy a mermaid, 500 million can be bought even by powerful devil fruit ability users, and even those pirates who are famous all over the world have a few bounties exceeding 500 million.
“Stupid, the guy who yelled out this price must be an idiot.”
At that moment, everyone had the same idea in their minds. In fact, they guessed correctly. The guy who called out this price is indeed an idiot.
On the most important VIP platform in the auction hall, Saint Charlos stood up, stretched out his palm, and shouted again: “500 million! I’ll pay 500 million Berry.”
Gulu…
The frightened auctioneer on the auction stage couldn’t help swallowing when he heard the price again, as if he could suppress the tension in his heart.
500 million was completely beyond his expectations. Originally, he thought that the price of more than 100 million was not bad, but he didn’t expect that someone would directly call out the price of 500 million.
Boom!
Many people who were about to bid the price returned to their chairs as if they had no strength, and shook their heads: “It’s too high, the price of 500 million is really too high.”
Indeed, the price of 500 million is not something that the people present can afford. Even if there is 500 million, they will not be used to buy a mermaid.
Moreover, it was the World Nobles who called out this price. If you offend the World Noble and get troubled later, the loss outweighs the gain.
Da da…
The auction card in Nami’s hand fell to the ground, making a crisp crashing sound. The price of 500 million is no longer affordable for everyone.
Sanji, who was the first to react, said, “How could such a thing happen? There are actually 500 million. We don’t have enough money.” Glancing at the idiot-like son beside him, he said calmly, “You bastard is spending money recklessly again. Don’t you have piranhas in your fish tank?”
To be honest, 500 million is not a small number for Saint Roswald, and he would spend so much money to buy a mermaid. If it was reported to Mary Geoise, those guys would laugh at him again.
Saint Charlos finished, turned his head and said, “Is this the only way to have fun? I heard that the fish-man is the fastest in the world. I want to see it.”
The entire auction house was under the price of 500 million in Saint Charlos, and there were sighs. How can anyone here earn money from the World Nobles? It seems that this mermaid will definitely be bought by the World Nobles.
Pappag shed tears of pain, and it was actually the World Nobles who photographed Camie, “What should we do? If we have no choice, we will be taken away by the World Nobles.”
“600 million Berry”
Then at the next moment, just when countless people thought that the mermaid in front of them was about to be bought by the World Nobles, a calm bid sounded.
There was another thunder in the auction house. Everyone who thought the situation had been settled, did not expect that there would be bids at this juncture. They looked in the direction of the bidding sound with stunned eyes.
They saw behind the auction booth, among the strange crowd standing behind, a beautiful girl with orange hair was holding the number 73 sign in her hand.
Facing everyone’s strange gazes, Nami’s face remained unchanged, and she called out the price again, “600 million Berry!”
Boom!
The peaceful auction room suddenly became noisy. Everyone was shocked by the scene in front of them. It was just an ordinary mermaid, even if it was precious, no one would pay such a high price.
“How is it possible, they paid out 600 million?”
“Where did the people come from, they are so rich that 600 million is that easy to pull out?”
“Looking at them like this, they should be pirates, but why do pirates have so much money, are they lying?”
“Whether they have it or not, these guys are really brave enough to snatch things from the World Nobles.”
…
Franky quickly reminded from behind: “Hey, Nami, why do we have 600 million Berry, those treasures are only worth…”
“That’s right, Nami, why did you do that? You can’t get 600 million. If you quote the price indiscriminately, Camie will still belong to the World Nobles, and you will also anger the auction house and the World Nobles.” Hatchan was very anxious.
Although he really wanted to save Camie, Nami couldn’t quote the price carelessly. In this case, not only would they be rejected of Camie, but they would also get into trouble.
Nami raised her hand to prevent everyone from persuading her. She stared at the sad Nami on the auction stage in front of her with a serious face, “Don’t worry, I didn’t quote the price carelessly.”
“But…” Chopper still couldn’t believe Nami’s explanation.
“But Lin Tian has money. Although 600 million Berry is a lot, I know that Lin Tian has a lot of money in his hands. Lin Tian can easily take out 600 million Berry.”
Hearing Nami’s explanation, everyone didn’t say much immediately. They also knew about Lin Tian’s wealth and status. It is not an exaggeration at all that he could easily take out 600 million Berry.
Among Kid’s group in the corner, someone glanced at their mouths and said disdainfully, “This group of guys are really messing around. They actually falsely put out prices in this kind of place.”
Also as pirates, everyone knows how a single pirate group can come up with such an astronomical figure of 600 million Berry.
Although the pirates are very rich, they spend a lot of money. Most of the pirates are drunk each morning, and basically the money they got was spent immediately. Little do they know that even a pirate like Moria, who has been on the sea for decades, only has a treasure of 200 million Berry.
Kid suddenly asked, “Killer, what do you think?”
After thinking about it for a while, Killer replied: “What matters now is not whether they can take out 600 million Berry, but how important the mermaid in front of them is to them, but now it seems that the answer is already known.”
“Haha, that’s right, there’s something good to watch next.” Kid laughed out loud.
Trafalgar Law, who was sitting in the auction booth, lowered his head, with an expectant smile on his face, “I didn’t expect such a thing to happen at this time, it’s a good show.”
Someone dared to snatch the mermaid from him. Without even thinking about it, Charlos stood up, raised his palms and shouted: “One billion Berry, one billion Berry!”
“1.1 Billion Berry.” as soon as Saint Charles shouted, Nami raised the sign in her hand and shouted again.
“what!”
Seeing that the guy behind him dared to raise the price, Saint Charlos turned his head to see which guy could actually resist him.
As for the auctioneer on the stage, he was stunned by the prices shouted by the two Nami and Charlos. As an auctioneer, he has never sold more than one billion for a mermaid.
Not only Saint Charlos who turned around, but also Saint Roswald. He glanced at Nami and the others behind the auction.
Contemptuously said: “Pirates who are mere low-class pariahs dare to snatch things from us like this. Someone catch and kill these guys for me.”
Who are they? They are the descendants of the Creator, the aristocratic World Nobles of the world. Without them, there would be no world. There are still people who snatch things from them. This is something I haven’t encountered in many years.
“Wait a minute, father.” Saint Charlos suddenly reached out his hand to stop his father from moving, and looked at Nami with eyes full of predators. Father, I want to keep those two women and make them be my wife.”
“asshole!”
Hearing this, everyone was furious and unbearable, and couldn’t help cursing, even this idiot dared to play against Nami and Robin.
