Above the Pirate King

Chapter 182
After parting from Corab, Arthur returned to the yacht and took care of business.

Until dusk!

After Arthur finished his dinner, he took Brian, Shaka, and Milo off the yacht.

At this time, Atherton was already waiting by the side.

Although the Chambord Islands are very safe now, there are navy everywhere, and Arthur is not an ordinary king, but Atherton feels that there is still work to be done, even if it is just a show, so he has come here to wait for Arthur. .

"Colonel Atherton, good evening!" Arthur greeted with a smile.

"Good evening, Your Majesty Arthur!" Atherton said with a smile.

"Brother Arthur!" At this moment, a hearty voice came from the side, it was Cobra.

"Brother Cobra!" Arthur turned his head and greeted with a smile.

"Brother Arthur, are you going to the auction?" Cobra asked.

"Yes!" Arthur nodded, then changed his voice and asked, "Brother Cobra too?"

"Yes, let's go together!" Cobra warmly invited.

"Okay!" Arthur agreed straightforwardly.

Afterwards, a group of people walked towards the No. [-] area together.

"Brother Arthur, look at that, that bald head is the king of Podsey Kingdom!"

"Brother Arthur, that one over there is the Queen of the Kingdom of Siaran, with a gentle personality, and a deadly enemy with the King of the Kingdom of Podsey!"

"Brother Arthur, that dwarf is the king of the Kingdom of Kig, and he is good friends with the king of the Kingdom of Podsey and the queen of the Kingdom of Sar'an!"

Along the way, they met a lot of kings, but Arthur came to the World Conference once, and he hardly knew the kings here, only a few familiar ones.

And Cobra, as a person who has often come to the World Conference since the prince's time, doesn't say all of these kings, but he knows most of them.

So he deliberately introduced Arthur to the kings and queens of various kingdoms, and also introduced to him the grievances and hatreds among the kings by the way!
Hearing this gave Arthur a headache!
It's too complicated!

A king can be friends with a queen, but at the same time the king's mortal enemy can also be a friend of the same queen, and the queen's mortal enemy can be a friend of the two kings!

Who is friends with whom?

Arthur was a little confused after hearing this!

He couldn't help sighing, "Your circle is really chaotic!"

Uh. He seems to belong to this circle too!

However, he also roughly summed up some rules!
The king of the West Sea can be friends with the kings of the East China Sea, North Sea, South China Sea, the Great Channel, etc., but it is rare to be friends with a certain king or queen of the West Sea!

Of course, Arthur could understand this after thinking about it.

After all, the West China Sea, the East China Sea, the North China Sea, the South China Sea, and the great waterway are all geographically separated by nature, and the chances of conflict between the two sides are very small. If there is no World Conference, they may not even meet each other in this life, so everyone can communicate. a friend.

And if they are also from the West Sea, then the two sides will have some contact, even if the kingdoms between the two parties are far away, but for the enterprising king, as long as they are both in the West Sea, they are all competitors. Of course they won't be friends anymore!

Not to mention those kings who already have battles between countries!
It's not bad if we don't fight each other!

Soon, a group of people arrived outside the Margery Auction House.

Looking from a distance, what catches the eye is a hexagonal off-white classical building with a width of more than 100 meters and a height of more than 30 meters.

Although it does not seem to have any luxurious decoration, it makes people feel a simple and atmospheric sense of history.

A historic auction house!

This was Arthur's first feeling.

At this moment, there was a sudden sound of arguing at the front door of the auction house.

"Bolder, you bastard, how dare you appear in front of me!" A fat man in his thirties who was dressed luxuriously yelled angrily at a middle-aged man in his forties.

"What? Theodore, are you going to bite me?" Boulder sneered.

"Ahem!"

Theodore spit directly on Boulder's face.

"Ah——Theodore, I'm going to kill you!" Boulder wiped the phlegm on his face, his eyes were round and full of anger, and he was about to rush towards Boulder with a roar.

At the same time, Theodore also rushed towards Boulder with hideous eyes.

"Your Majesty, calm down!"

"Your Majesty, don't be impulsive!"

"Your Majesty, don't go!"

Seeing this, the palace ministers under the two quickly pulled them back.

"Who are these two?" Arthur curiously pointed at the two and asked Cobra beside them.

"Hehe, these two are the kings of the North Sea. The two countries are adjacent to each other, and they often have conflicts. However, because of the similar national strength, the two sides have always won and lost. They will come to this almost every world conference! This time, they will suffer. Looks like Theodore, that's why he looks like this!"

Cobra paused, and continued to explain,

"However, the two of them are just showing off. Every time they are held back by the ministers and nobles under them, they never really fight!"

"Oh!" Arthur nodded knowingly.

"You may not believe it, but the two of them are still relatives!" Cobra said with a mocking expression,
"Theodore's father's youngest daughter married Boulder, and Boulder's sister married Theodore, and Theodore's father married Boulder's grandfather's youngest sister, and Boulder's father married Great-Grandpa Theodore's youngest sister!"

"Wait...wait, let me repeat!" Arthur quickly stopped, he couldn't react for a while, after thinking about it carefully, he said with some uncertainty, "That is to say, Boulder married West Odo's aunt, is Theodore's uncle?"

"Then Theodore married Boulder's sister, Boulder's brother-in-law? Theodore's father was Boulder's father's uncle, that is to say, Theodore's father was Boulder's great-aunt. Otto is Boulder's cousin!"

"Bolder's father married Theodore's great-grandpa's youngest sister, which means that Boulder's father is Theodore's father's great-aunt, and Boulder is Theodore's cousin!"

"To sum up, Boulder is Theodore's uncle and his cousin, and Theodore is Boulder's brother-in-law and his cousin!"

"En! Almost!" Cobra was also a little uncertain, so after careful consideration, he nodded.

"Your circle is so chaotic!" Arthur couldn't help but sigh again.

Theodore and Boulder did not fight in the end, and entered the auction house one after the other.

Seeing this, Arthur and Cobra also walked over.

"Hello!" As soon as they arrived at the door, two dignified and dignified waitresses stepped forward and said respectfully.

Arthur and Cobra handed invitation letters to her respectively.

"Are the two together? Or..." one of the waitresses asked.

"Let's go together!" Cobra said grandly.

Arthur had no problem with that either.

"Okay, please follow me, both of you!" With that said, the waitress made a gesture of invitation and led the two of them into the auction house.

Compared with the quaint atmosphere outside, the inside looks much more luxurious. The road is resplendent and magnificent, decorated with various gemstones and rare treasures everywhere.

Arthur even suspected for a while that if the auction house was completely demolished, these decorations alone might be sold for hundreds of millions!
Soon, led by the waitress, the two walked to the second floor and entered a luxurious box.

"Both of you, this is Box No. [-]. Please wait here for a moment, the auction will start soon!" The waitress said with a smile, then turned and left the box.

Except for some who have already entered Marie Gioia, almost all the people who stayed in the Chambord Islands came to the auction this time. There are more than 30 kings in total, all of which are on this floor. Each king is a box. The circular division is throughout the second floor.

In the middle of the first floor is the table where the auction items are located.

Through the large glass in the box on the second floor, you can directly see the things on the auction table, and there is a video phone bug in the box, projecting the things on the stage into the box.

"Brother Arthur, sit down!" Cobra sat on the sofa in the box, beckoning Arthur to sit down.

"Okay!" Arthur nodded, and also sat down.

The ministers brought by the two of them and the escorting navy stood behind.

"Dong dong!"

As soon as the two sat down, there was a knock on the door of the box.

"Come in!" Cobra said.

"Da da da!"

Immediately, slim beauties in high heels walked in with trays of fruits, put the fruits on the table, and then stood beside the box.

"Your Majesties, if you have any requests, please do so. I am the foreman in charge of your box, Edithia!" After all the words were placed on the table, one of the beauties stood up and said.

Then, she changed her voice and whispered in a seductive voice, "If there is anything special!" "You can also ask for it!"

In this regard, Cobra and Arthur both shook their heads, showing no interest at all!
Among them, Cobra is a purebred good man who only loves his wife, so he has no interest.

And Arthur has no interest in this kind of bus!
Well. He only drives a private car!
Seeing this, Edithia could only smile embarrassingly, and retreated to the side of the box to wait quietly.

After a while, as a man in a blue tuxedo, with round eyes and blond curly hair stood on the auction stage, the auction officially started!
