One Piece: Accidentally Becoming the King of the World

...

There was an uproar in the audience. As Roger became famous as the Pirate King, the great pirates who could compete with him on the same stage also became legends.

"Such a rudder with special meaning is a very good choice whether you buy it home as a collection or hang it on the wall to ward off evil spirits! The starting price is 5 million beli! Does anyone have a bid?"

The host struck while the iron was hot and announced the start of bidding. Unfortunately, the audience was only talking about it. It was not easy to get them to pay for it. After all, no one could tell whether the rudder was the same as the one on the golden lion's head.

Another Who dares to compare it with Shiji?

"Hurry up and get your next item! What idiot would spend millions of dollars buying half an old wooden rudder?"

"That's right, the weather will get cold soon. A few million beli can buy a beautiful female slave to warm the bed. Wouldn't she be delicious? Why buy a piece of broken wood?"

Everyone in the audience started to boo.

Although there were a lot of idiots on the scene, these idiots were not interested in this kind of thing.

The secret rule of the auction house is that no failed auctions are allowed, which will affect the enthusiasm for bidding on the spot. As the host When the person was about to signal the shill arranged by the auction house to bid, the screen behind him lit up.

"OK! Thank you to the guest in Box 1 for your bid! Is there anyone else bidding?"

The host shouted happily:

I thought there was really a fool willing to pay the bill.

"5.1 million!"

"5.2 million!"

"…"

"Captain, these people feel like the people who arranged the auction are deliberately raising the price."

Tezolo frowned and reminded Ger.

"It doesn't matter, it's just a small amount of money, I'm just curious to buy it to see if it's real or fake. Don't worry, they also know that no one wants this thing, so they don't dare to raise the price too high."

"Well, captain, if you don't have enough money, I still have 30 million beli to use."

Tezolo said seriously

"Haha, no, I still have enough money for now."

Ger took a sip of tea, smiled and typed a series of numbers on the electronic screen again.

"Don't worry about keeping your money to marry your wife. You know nothing about the captain's money-making ability."

Senior smiled.

"…6.6 million Baileys three times, deal done! Congratulations to the distinguished guest in Box 1 for successfully photographing this rare ship rudder!"

After being promoted several times by the auction house, Geer finally easily won the seemingly useless half of the rudder for 6.6 million beli.

"Boom, boom, boom!"

Soon there was a knock on the door.

The rudder that Geer had just photographed was immediately sent to the box.

Without the card swiping function, the auction house staff could only accept two stacks of Baileys and count them in person. After he understood it, he asked Geer to sign, then he put down the items and returned with the money.

Looking at the shiny wooden rudder of the old ship in the brocade box, Geer reached out and picked it up.

【Ding! 】

The long-awaited system prompt made Geer tremble. Could it be that he really accidentally picked up a treasure?

He quickly took a closer look.

Congratulations on getting the special jewelry:

【Rudder Headgear]

(The same ornament as the golden lion of the pirate admiral and the captain of the Sky Pirates. The wearer can make the golden lion Shiji break his defense, attracting all the opponent's hatred value and becoming Shiji's first attack target!)

"Holy shit, are you fucking kidding me? Does this thing have a hammer?"

I didn't expect that it seemed useless, but it was actually useless.

He was overjoyed to find out. Captain Geer threw the things into the system space with a look of disgust on his face.

…

On the stage, dozens of auction items were sold one after another in a short while. Most of them were pleasure items pursued by the nobles. Geer had no interest in bidding.

"Damn it, where is my precious tree Adam, why haven’t I seen it yet?"

Gel tapped his fingers lightly on the table and said impatiently.

Did he get tricked by that bastard Doflamingo?

"There should be some, I've seen the flyer, and it mentioned rare shipbuilding materials."

Senior said, touching his chin.

As soon as he finished speaking, he saw three giant logs appearing on the screen on the stage.

"Next is our 37th auction item. Since the actual item is too big to move on stage, we can only show it to you through live broadcast~"

As the camera moved, the host also began to express his voice and sound. Introduced

"Legend has it that there is such an island. There has been a war on the island. Under the baptism of the war, the entire island, the city and the people were basically destroyed, but only a huge"tree" still stood. No matter what happened, after all the No matter how many years pass, that giant tree will always stand there!"

"After the war, people huddled under this tree and rebuilt new cities and countries. There are only a few trees of this kind in the world, and people call it the strongest tree: Adam!"

"The branches of the Adam tree are extremely tough, and the boats made from the wood of this tree are also tough and solid and can withstand the test of all stormy waves! It is one of the top shipbuilding materials and is definitely the best choice to build a"dream boat" that can carry lofty ambitions!"

"And this time, the treasure tree Adam is much larger than before, with three branches, which is enough to build three or four medium-sized three-masted sailing ships."

Speaking of this, many people are already excited in the audience.

These nobles and wealthy merchants have many industries. Many of them have their own armed caravans, which are called caravans. They use pirate flags in places where they can't be seen to do some burning and killing. Robbery, capture and trade of slaves are common, which can make money much faster than doing business honestly.

If you want to do something well, you must first sharpen your tools!

Take pictures of these good wood to make a few. Only by building a strong and good"merchant ship" to strengthen the strength of their fleet can they sail the sea and earn more Baileys.

Of course, the price must be within the range they can afford!

"Boom!"

The host struck a hammer and announced:

"Then the bidding process begins, with a starting price of 300 million beli! Does anyone have a bid?"

As soon as the words fell, the audience started actively raising placards and quoting.

The host picked up the microphone and read without breathing:

"good! Price increase for No. 258 is 10 million! Now it’s 310 million!"

"The price of No. 147 is also increased by 10 million to 320 million!"

"335 million on No. 212! Thanks!"

…

"380 million! 400000000! VIP No. 99 bids 400 million! Is there anyone else bidding?"

Finally, when Baoshu Adam, Geer directly entered a string of numbers and pressed the quote button.

"Wow! 500 million Baileys!! The VIP in Box No. 1 directly and decisively increased the price by 100 million! Now the price has reached 500 million Baileys!"

The host shouted excitedly. Just as excited as him was a mysterious man in Box 8 wearing a black combat uniform, a blue scarf, and a black hat....
