"Hahaha, I thought it was something, no problem, just count it on me."
But this can't be for nothing, Dr. Oran, you have to buy me a drink."
In Roger's eyes, this kind of thing is not a problem at all.
The bounty on his head is already high enough. Now, in the entire Sea, not to mention a bounty higher than Roger, there are not many who are even close to Roger.
At this time, Roger is a typical case of not being overwhelmed by debt. Not to mention tearing down an auction house, even if he blows up a Navy branch, the difference is probably not big.
Of course, if the Navy base is really blown up, even for the sake of face, the Navy would have to respond at all costs.
Perhaps in Roger's eyes, this kind of thing is far less important than a bottle of good wine.
"Your request is quite easy to solve. I happen to have some explosive wine here. Would you like to try it?"
Oran reached for the inside of his coat, and then took out a bottle of wine from it. As a Book-Book Fruit user, it is normal for him to carry a storage book with him.
Although Oran doesn't drink, it doesn't affect his selling wine. This wine is an important commodity for him to open up the Freljord trade route when he was in Valoran Continent.
That place is freezing cold, and liquor has always been a fast-selling product. The explosive wine in Oran's mouth is made from special fruits.
In addition to the honey fruit used to make potions, and the Searchlight Fruit for searching for hidden devices, the seeds on his body also include the fruit of the Explosive Pinecone.
Like the former two, it is also a special fruit that grows on Valoran Continent. The mature fruit is red, and it will suddenly burst open as long as a certain external force is applied.
The impact generated by the explosion is not small, and even adults will fly far away. The wine brewed with this fruit is very strong, and the alcohol is like an explosion in the mouth when drinking it.
"Oh, looks good, then I'll accept it."
Roger took the wine bottle and placed it at his feet.
The arrival of the Roger Pirates even made this place a lot more lively, but the noise here did not attract too much attention, or rather, no one wanted to take the initiative to cause trouble.
If someone paid more attention here, they might find out what these people are planning.
Of course, it's not that no one is paying attention to Roger, such as Roger's trainees, but they are thinking about another question.
"Shanks, how do you think he put such a big wine bottle in his clothes?"
"Well... maybe he has a very deep pocket in his clothes."
"How is that possible? Such a big wine bottle, if it's in the pocket..."
Before Buggy and Shanks could discuss the result, the auction had already begun.
"Everyone! Thank you for waiting! Welcome to this walking auction house! It's time for the monthly special auction session again.
I am the master of ceremonies for this auction. I hope my service can satisfy everyone."
The curtain on the auction stage was pulled open, and a master of ceremonies dressed like a clown walked out from inside, um, Buggy's same nose.
"Today, we have also prepared high-quality slaves for everyone! I hope everyone can buy their favorite slaves! First of all, today's NO.1 is a famous musician from North Sea.
Don't look at him as a musician, but if you replace the instrument with a mop, then he is a cleaner.
If you replace the mop with scissors, he will become an excellent gardener. If you like, he will also make some North Sea specialties, starting price 470,000 Belly!"
The price on the price list is generally the lowest transaction price, which is a different concept from the starting price.
"Although there are some minor injuries on his body, it doesn't matter. Now, let the auction begin!"
The person being auctioned revealed helplessness and unwillingness in his eyes. The scars on his body were left by his resistance, but unfortunately he failed in the end.
The collar on his neck has deprived him of his freedom.
That is an explosive collar. As the name suggests, if you disobey orders or run away without authorization, it will explode directly.
"Can hundreds of thousands of Belly arbitrarily control someone's life?"
Lylyana's values are still being refreshed. The wages on Firefly Island are not low. This is mainly to improve the national sense of belonging and maintain the island's economy.
Whether it is the price or the event itself, it is something that Lylyana cannot accept in her heart.
At this time, she understood even more why Oran hated human trafficking so much.
It's just that the people present don't care about this kind of thing. They casually shouted prices and competed with others, treating it as a kind of glory.
The slaves in the backstage were sold one after another, and the thing Roger wanted was also sent to the auction stage.
"Okay, next is the intermission. We have also prepared some extra small things.
Next, we will auction off an ancient nautical manual, which is said to record some mysterious treasure islands, starting price 500,000 Belly!"
"Two hundred million Belly!"
As soon as the master of ceremonies finished speaking, someone raised the sign in their hand and shouted an extremely exaggerated price.
"Two hundred million! Someone bid two hundred million! Is there a higher price?!"
Although the price is exaggerated, the master of ceremonies did not lose his mind. Instead, he continued to ask according to the process, and the person who shouted the price was naturally Roger.
"I said, are you pirates so rich? Looking at it this way, I should have charged you some extra consultation fees back then."
"Hahaha, no, the fact is that I never intended to pay!"
Seeing that his target had appeared, Roger stood up. He didn't take action directly, just because he was afraid that the chaos would destroy the thing.
Now that the thing has been brought to the front, he has no worries.
"Little ones! Move!"
Even if he hadn't met Oran, Roger would most likely have done this. He didn't intend to honestly pay the auction house.
In Oran's view, no matter what happens next, someone will take the blame. In Roger's view, he got a free drink.
From another point of view, this is a win-win situation.
As Roger gave the order, the Roger Pirates immediately reacted, including Buggy, who also drew out a few daggers and rushed up with the others.
At this time, he still doesn't lack the courage to fight, at least he won't lack it in this kind of battle. Even Crocus picked up the harpoon on his back and prepared for battle. It seems that he has also integrated into the life of a pirate.
"Okay Lyly, do whatever you want, it doesn't matter if you destroy this place."
"Yes, this kind of place should not continue to exist at all. And Dad, I feel particularly angry right now."
Pink scales once again covered Lylyana's skin. Unlike the previous transformation, she even felt a fire burning in her heart.
Following the instinct in her heart, she opened her mouth and aimed at the master of ceremonies on the stage.
If Kaido was here, he would definitely shout out: "Heat Breath!"
