Chapter 127: The auctioned mermaid!

At this time,

although the bidding for the Rumble-Rumble Fruit had ended,

apart from the auctioneer’s voice,

the entire auction house remained in silence,

and everyone’s face showed, to a greater or lesser extent, a hint of panic!

Li Xiao glanced at the corpse being dragged away by the auction house staff,

and then turned his head to look at the Celestial Dragon who had just bid for the Rumble-Rumble Fruit,

who was showing a smile,

and subconsciously frowned!

Sure enough,

no matter where you go,

Celestial Dragons are the most disgusting creatures in this world,

bar none!

Unlike others,

the evil of the Celestial Dragons is almost carved into their bones!

More importantly,

this evil is passed down through generations!

Garp is a Marine Hero,

but his son, Monkey D. Dragon, is the leader of the Revolutionary Army!

Monkey D. Dragon is clearly the leader of the Revolutionary Army,

but his son, Luffy, is a bona fide pirate!

These three generations of the family

each have different identities!

But Celestial Dragons are different;

the descendants of Celestial Dragons are always Celestial Dragons!

And every generation of Celestial Dragons is just as tyrannical and disgusting!

Even so,

Li Xiao has no intention of doing anything about it!

After all,

this is the norm of this world,

and similar things are happening all over the world at every moment!

Li Xiao can kill one Celestial Dragon,

but he cannot kill all of them!

Taking a step back,

even if Li Xiao were to wipe out all the Celestial Dragons in this world,

what would that achieve?

Celestial Dragons are merely the deformed product of this era!

Even without Celestial Dragons,

as long as the fundamental problems of the era are not solved,

a series of Celestial Dragons will still be spawned!

They might have different names,

perhaps called Celestial Monkey-men, Celestial Ox-men, Celestial Horse-men...

But that is not important!

Names are just code names,

and in essence, they are all the same!

As for how to solve the fundamental problems of this era,

that is not something Li Xiao should be thinking about;

such things should be considered by the Revolutionary Army!

And Li Xiao is just an ordinary cultivator,

who only wants to cultivate steadily,

and pursue his own path to immortality!

By comparison,

Li Xiao is more concerned about another matter!

That is,

for the Adam Wood that will be auctioned next,

will this Celestial Dragon bid again?

If this Celestial Dragon bids,

then Li Xiao obviously cannot bid normally against him,

and will most likely be forced to kill another Celestial Dragon!

Good grief,

it really does match Li Xiao’s previous speculation!

The previous user of the Rumble-Rumble Fruit died under the claws of the Little Green Dragon,

the user before that died under Li Xiao’s sword,

and this time,

the Rumble-Rumble Fruit might not even be in hand yet,

and this Celestial Dragon will die at Li Xiao’s hands ahead of schedule!

How is this a Logia Rumble-Rumble Fruit?

Isn't this just a bona fide Suicide Fruit?

Tsk, this is much more intense than some Four Emperor’s "Face-Face Fruit"!

Just as Li Xiao was pondering,

the next item for auction was pushed onto the display stand!

Several guards slowly pushed a large cart to the center of the stage,

and the cart was covered with a thick black cloth,

completely obscuring the situation inside,

adding a touch of mystery to this item!

The auctioneer held the microphone,

and shouted with passion:

"The next item for auction is also one of the grand finales of our auction!"

"However, unlike the Rumble-Rumble Fruit just now, this item is a slave!"

"That’s right, she is the mermaid Lina from Fish-Man Island!"

With a wave of the auctioneer’s hand,

he ripped off the thick black cloth!

The first thing that caught everyone’s eyes was a massive fish tank,

and inside the tank,

there was indeed a female mermaid!

When this mermaid was revealed to everyone,

the entire auction house boiled over!

Countless people’s eyes went straight,

all looking in unison at the mermaid who was panicking inside the tank!

In an instant,

the auction house changed from its previous deathly silence,

and bursts of exclamations and excited shouts mixed together,

echoing throughout the entire auction house!

The fear that had just been shrouded by the Celestial Dragon and death vanished in an instant!

In this situation,

even Li Xiao’s attention could not help but be drawn over!

Inside that massive fish tank,

a female mermaid was swimming up and down in a panic,

her face filled with terror,

her hands constantly pounding against the tank,

trying to escape!

However, the tank had been specially modified,

the top was sealed,

and her hands and neck were shackled,

with the other end of the chains connected to the bottom of the tank,

so she could not break free!

All her struggles were in vain,

serving no purpose other than to make the crowd even more excited!

Come to think of it,

Li Xiao had been transmigrated for such a long time,

and this was his first time seeing a mermaid,

especially a female mermaid!

As for Arlong and the others, whom Li Xiao had beaten up and sent to the Marine prison back in Cocoyasi Village in the East Blue,

to be precise,

they were not called mermaids,

but fish-men!

but rather called Fish-Men!

Mermaids and fish-men may seem the same,

but in reality, there is a big difference!

Mermaids refer to those with a human upper body

and a fish lower body,

while fish-men are the opposite,

referring to those with a fish upper body

and a human lower body!

Although both live on Fish-Man Island,

they are essentially two different races!

Even on Fish-Man Island,

the fish-men and mermaids live separately!

Out of curiosity,

Li Xiao carefully looked her up and down!

This female mermaid named Lina

had long light blue hair,

delicate features,

and fair, smooth skin,

and the few clothes she had on could only barely cover a few important parts!

It must be said,

by any normal aesthetic standard,

one would find this mermaid stunningly beautiful!

Especially when paired with this terrified and helpless expression,

it made her look even more moving!
