Chapter 50

Fuza Fu could not handle it alone.

He asked again, "Should we ask Boss Kaido to send more men?"

Luo Xing shook his head and said:

"If we have too many people, it will alert Donquixote Doflamingo. That is why I only asked you to follow me back then."

Fuza Fu bowed and listened.

The little maid Carrot gazed at her master's back with admiration.

Luo Xing stood with his hands behind his back and smiled confidently.

"Besides, so many powerful people are here to give us money; we should be happy."

Fuza Fu stammered his agreement.

Luo Xing lightly stroked Enma at his waist.

This hellish blade obtained from Shinobu had long been subdued by Luo Xing's Conqueror's Haki.

When Luo Xing's hand touched it, Enma seemed to emit an excited sword cry, eager to be drawn.

The corner of Luo Xing's lips curled slightly.

"Rest assured, Enma, the time for you to be unsheathed is almost here!"

54. The Senzu Bean Auction Officially Begins! (Please vote and send flowers)

"What? Besides the Pirate Empress, the Whitebeard Pirates, the Red Hair Pirates, and the Big Mom Pirates, everyone is participating?!"

Sengoku, who had just taken the report call from Wosuke, took several deep breaths to suppress his shock before forcing himself to speak calmly:

"Very well, I understand, old man."

He hung up the phone.

Sengoku's brows were tightly furrowed.

The scope of influence of this Senzu Bean Auction far exceeded his previous expectations.

The participation of all four Emperor crews was truly unprecedented.

"Should we send an Admiral to Dressrosa?"

Grand Admiral Tsuru asked.

Since being severely injured last time by the combined efforts of the siblings Runt and Page One, Tsuru had remained at Marine Headquarters to recover.

She basically stayed in Sengoku's office, becoming a veritable chief of staff to the Fleet Admiral.

Sengoku sighed and said:

"I'm afraid that is impossible. Dressrosa is the territory of the Warlord Donquixote Doflamingo. We have an agreement with him long ago; except for special circumstances, the Navy cannot disturb him."

"Sending Wosuke this time was also done in secret."

Tsuru continued:

"Can we not make an exception just once? That Beast Emperor's Imperial Son-in-Law, Luo Xing, is also in Dressrosa. If we can capture him, it would be equivalent to removing a major threat to the Navy!"

Sengoku spoke with a heavy tone:

"It is not that simple. If we make a move against that Luo Xing, the Beast Emperor Kaido will certainly not sit idly by. At that time, a full-scale war with the Emperors is very likely to break out!"

"The Beast Pirates possess two major weapons: the SMILE cells and the Senzu Beans, while our Navy side is unprepared."

"Once a war breaks out, our situation would be very unfavorable."

Sengoku's analysis was extremely reasonable, and upon hearing this, Tsuru could only fall silent.

Sengoku actually had one more sentence he did not say.

That is, the other, even greater reason he could not send an Admiral to Dressrosa was that the Five Elders did not agree!

Why did the Five Elders not agree?

Naturally, Doflamingo used his Celestial Dragon identity to contact the Five Elders early on, asking them not to ruin his good deeds.

Otherwise, he would expose the national treasure of Mary Geoise!

Dressrosa.

The day of the Senzu Bean Auction finally arrived.

Thousands upon thousands of people flooded into the Colosseum, each wearing an expression of excitement and agitation on their faces.

"A king of a nation, the King of the Underworld, Warlords, and Vice-Admirals of the Emperors; so many big shots bidding on Senzu Beans. Who knows how high the price will be driven!"

"At least one billion Berries! After all, the SMILE cells were that price back then!"

"One billion Berries! Even if you sold me, you couldn't earn that much money!"

"Tch, do you think you are the Beast Emperor's Imperial Son-in-Law, with a bounty reaching over one billion Berries?"

Amidst the clamor, everyone took their seats in the spectator stands of the Colosseum.

In the center of the Colosseum, the fighting platform had five pillars rising high.

On top of each pillar sat an exquisite jade box, containing a small, green pill inside.

That was the Senzu Bean watched by all!

On the high platform in front of the pillars, a Donquixote Family officer served as the host.

From there, the host could see the bids of anyone in the entire arena.

The spectator seats were also divided into three, six, and nine grades.

The most honorable position was, of course, the VIP section.

Luo Xing was now sitting leisurely in the VIP section with the little maid Carrot and Fuza Fu.

The VIP section occupied a large area, but only a handful of people were qualified to sit here.

Everyone's seating was widely scattered; clearly, the pride of the strong made them disdainful of conversing with others.

Luo Xing's gaze swept casually.

Doflamingo's expression was gloomy, sitting alongside the two underworld kings, Foxy and Pekoms.

The Pirate Empress Boa Hancock, with an air of cold aloofness, could only be admired from afar; behind her stood only her two sisters, Sandersonia and Marigold.

The Phoenix Marco squatted on a chair, his gaze eagerly fixed on the Senzu Bean in the center.

Charlotte Katakuri stood with arms crossed, his sharp eyes making no one dare to meet his gaze.

The fat man Luffy was still eating chicken legs, as if he would never tire of them.

Luo Xing also spotted several familiar figures: the giant Hody Jones, the leader of the Flower Country, King of the Fist Elizabello II...

These people should have come to Dressrosa only to fight over the Mera Mera no Mi in the original story.

Now, however, they were drawn by the Senzu Bean.

"Eh?"

Luo Xing suddenly raised an eyebrow; just now, while casually scanning the ordinary seating, he had unexpectedly sensed a strange, powerful aura.

Although the person hid it very well, Luo Xing still perceived it.

"There is such a powerful expert hiding? Interesting."

Luo Xing's gaze turned toward the direction of that powerful aura.

It was a man who covered his face with a hat, appearing very young.

Luo Xing's eyes flickered slightly, showing a bit of surprise and a hint of amusement.

Then, he casually turned his gaze away.

"What's wrong, Sabo?"

Koala asked in a low voice; just now, she had noticed her companion's muscles all tensing up.

Sabo spoke in a voice of utmost Solemnity:

"We have been discovered, by that mysterious Beast Emperor's Imperial Son-in-Law!"

While Luo Xing observed the crowd, the crowd was all observing him.

Yet, upon seeing the Hannya mask on his face, they felt somewhat disappointed.

The Empress murmured inwardly:

"So this is Luo Xing, the inventor of the Senzu Bean. Although he is a man, considering his invention, if there is an opportunity, we should bind him and bring him to the Amazons."

Men are forbidden from entering the Amazons.

For any man who enters the Amazons, there is only one outcome: death.
