Akira turned his gaze to the box that had just bought the Yuki Yuki no Mi.
However, his expression suddenly changed, because when he looked over, the door of that box was suddenly opened, and a black shadow quickly walked out, heading towards the back of the auction house.
Seeing this scene, Akira stood up immediately without hesitation, and then quickly walked out of the auction venue.
Because everyone was attracted by the beauty of the mermaid now, Akira's departure in the middle didn't attract anyone's attention.
Akira quickly walked out of the auction house, and then hid outside, waiting for the target to appear.
He had already investigated that the auction house had a back door. Since the other party left early, then they naturally didn't want people to know that they had bought the Yuki Yuki no Mi, so they definitely wouldn't take the front door.
So Akira hid at the back door of the auction house and waited.
He guessed correctly. After waiting for more than ten minutes, he finally saw a man wrapped in black clothes walk out of the back door of the auction house.
The reason he determined that the other party was a man was because of his walking posture and figure.
After that person walked out of the back door of the auction house, he immediately quickly walked into an alley.
Judging from his appearance, he seemed to be very familiar with this place. He had obviously been here more than once.
Akira didn't follow too closely. He just hung behind. This was still a place with a lot of people, so it wouldn't be convenient to take action.
However, the other party's actions next surprised him. After turning into several alleys in a row, he walked into a dead end, and then tore off the black robe on his body.
"This guy is actually a Navy?"
After the other party tore off the black robe, he actually revealed a white Navy uniform. The person who bought the Yuki Yuki no Mi was actually a Navy.
This made Akira very surprised. Since the other party was a Navy, but he was still so sneaky, there was obviously a problem.
So Akira became even more vigilant. He instinctively felt that the other party wasn't simple.
After the other party took off the black robe, he directly flipped over the wall of the dead end. Akira quickly followed.
They passed through the bustling streets one after another, and then walked more and more remotely. Finally, after arriving at a deserted place, the Navy stopped.
"You've been following for so long. You can come out now, right?"
Akira, who was following behind, didn't reveal a surprised expression when he heard these words. Instead, he walked out very calmly, and then looked at the other party, and said, "Knowing that I'm following you, you still brought me here. It seems that you're very confident in yourself."
The other party turned around. He was a very young man. His height was about two meters. He was wearing sunglasses, a Navy uniform, and had some stubble on his face.
His body was standing straight. What was even more interesting was that there was actually a piece of french fry-like food left on his left cheek.
He only heard the other party say, "Although you're just a little mouse, even a little mouse has to pick a place to kill."
"Hehe."
Akira couldn't help but laugh. He looked at the other party, and said with a smile, "You want to kill a mouse? But have you thought about being bitten back by the mouse?"
That Navy sneered, "Then I'll break its teeth."
Akira said, "You're really ruthless enough. Your appearance doesn't look like a Navy at all. Looking at what you've done, I can also imagine that you should be a Navy who isn't very peaceful, right?"
That Navy said in a deep voice, "Kid, you've been following me for so long. You should be here for the Devil Fruit in my hand, right?"
Akira nodded and said, "That's right. I've been staring at that Devil Fruit for a long time. As long as you lend it to me for a while, I'll return it to you soon. How's that?"
"Do you think that's possible?" That Navy said coldly.
Akira said, "Judging from your appearance, I know it's impossible. Then I can't help it. I can only rob it by force."
"Hmph."
That Navy snorted coldly, and said, "You don't have the qualifications to rob something from my hands."
Saying that, he tied the box containing the Yuki Yuki no Mi to his back, looked at Akira with an icy gaze, and said coldly, "How many opportunities you have depends on how much skill you have."
Akira said lightly, "You'll never know my skills. I'm determined to get the Devil Fruit. If you don't give it to me, I can only rob it. But before this, I have a question I want to ask you."
That Navy obviously didn't expect Akira to actually say such a thing. He asked with some doubt, "What do you want to ask?"
Akira grinned, and asked with a smile, "I want to ask, how has Doflamingo been recently?"
Hearing Akira suddenly say such a sentence, that Navy's expression changed instantly. He shouted, "What are you saying?"
Akira smiled and said, "What am I saying? You should be very clear. I'm also an old acquaintance with your young master. Since we parted in Loguetown last time, I wonder how he's been developing in the North Blue recently?"
That Navy was naturally the mole that the Donquixote Family had arranged to be in the Navy, which was Vergo.
His expression became very unsightly when he heard Akira's words, and he asked in a cold voice, "Who exactly are you?"
He had been in the Navy for many years. Apart from a few people in the Donquixote Family, no one else knew.
However, the suddenly appearing young man in front of him actually knew that he was a person from the Donquixote Family. This made him very shocked.
Akira said, "You don't need to know who I am. You tell me, if I tell the Navy about your identity, what will your fate be? What will the Donquixote Family's fate be?"
Vergo's expression was icy cold, and he said in a cold voice, "You won't have that opportunity."
Before his voice fell, he suddenly charged towards Akira. When he charged over, his fists had already turned pitch black.
"Clang!"
Akira also drew his Zanpakuto in an instant. What he drew was Senbonzakura, but he didn't perform Shikai. It was the initial form.
"Clang!"
Vergo's fist was blocked by Akira's Senbonzakura, and he didn't retreat a step, which made Vergo quite surprised.
A sharp light suddenly shone in Akira's eyes. The Senbonzakura in his hand drew a charming arc, stabbing straight at Vergo's forehead.
"Ding!"
The tip of Senbonzakura's sword did hit Vergo, but it made a sound like metal colliding. He only saw the tip of the sword resting on Vergo's forehead, but it couldn't stab in no matter what, because Vergo's forehead had turned pitch black.
He had used Armament Haki to harden his forehead, so it couldn't be stabbed in.
Looking at the entire One Piece manga, Vergo's use of Armament Haki could definitely be considered top-notch.
After all, few people could harden their entire body with Armament Haki like him. It could be said that his signature skill was Armament Haki.
Later, even Law only used the power of the Ope Ope no Mi to decompose him, but he couldn't kill him directly.
"Ding ding ding!"
Vergo and Akira's battle was completely without defense. No matter where Akira's sword hit him, he could harden his body with Armament Haki at the fastest speed.
He, on the other hand, only attacked Akira, but his attacks were blocked by Akira every time, and he didn't hit once.
After fighting for a while, Vergo clearly found that whenever his attacks were used, Akira would quickly dodge as if he had a sense of it.
He immediately understood that Akira should have used Observation Haki. Being able to control Observation Haki at a young age was definitely a rare genius.
He was even more puzzled in his heart. Who exactly was this young man?
The two people's battle was indeed very special. Vergo had Armament Haki, so Akira's attacks were completely ineffective.
Vergo's Armament Haki was indeed very strong, but he couldn't hit Akira, who possessed Observation Haki.
Even if there were a few times when Akira didn't have time to dodge his attacks, he would block them in time with his sword. So neither of them could do anything to each other.
But just then, Vergo's body suddenly paused, and then he shouted lightly, "Shave!"
Akira only felt Vergo disappear in front of his eyes in an instant. He quickly sensed Vergo's location, and then slashed his sword towards his back fiercely.
However, Vergo, who had appeared behind him, disappeared again. This time, he appeared above his head.
