One Piece: The Bond of the Flamingo

Xia Lu sat in the cage, frowning and watching the people passing by outside, they were busy bringing No. [-] commodity to the stage.Sitting next to her was a young man. Xia Lu felt that he was probably younger than Corazon. She asked, "Are you arrested too?"

"En." The young man put his head in his hands, as if he still couldn't accept the cruel reality that he was about to become a slave.

"It's really noisy outside, I don't know what's wrong." Xia Lu heard many chaotic voices.

"It seems that you don't know yet, there are Tianlong people in this auction."

"Tianlong people?" This is not unfamiliar at all, Xia Lu prayed, don't really meet him, otherwise the day to go to Beihai is really far away.

The young man's tone was filled with fear: "Probably came to buy slaves again. I have heard that this auction house has high-quality goods every time, so Tianlong people often come to patronize."

"..." It's unlucky. When mentioning the Tianlong people, the first thing that comes to Xia Lu's mind is the cruelty of Knoss, followed by the Serbia family.These are the worst memories, and they are extremely ugly to Xia Lu.

"Why don't you look scared at all? Aren't you afraid of being bought by the Tianlong people and becoming their slave for the rest of your life?" The young man was surprised to see Xia Lu's serious expression instead of fear.

Xia Lu didn't answer him, and sighed: "What's your name?"

"Alger."

"Well, hello, I'm Xia Lu."

Alger looked hopeless: "What's the matter, if you want to be a slave, you might as well die."

Xia Lu recalled that the slaves she had seen in Marie Gioia before lived a life worse than that of animals, and felt that it was normal for Alger to have such thoughts.

Soon, the auction started, and the arrival of the Tianlong people made this slave auction house in the Chambord Islands flourish.The host, Disco, dressed himself up glamorously and asked people to bring No. [-] commodity.Everyone in the audience held a sign with a number in their hands, and they kept bidding. As the price rose higher and higher, Disco's expression became more and more satisfied.Xia Lu's rank is still very high in general with Alger, and after few people got up, it was the two of them's turn.Alger started out as a good-natured young man who would rather die than surrender and was very backbone, but then he was beaten up and tied up on the stage.When Xia Lu was on stage, she saw a very eye-catching sign on the backstage wall. This sign was really familiar to her.That's the symbol for Doflamingo, a smirking face.In other words, this auction house is also his property.Really, after running so far, I can still see things related to him. It can be seen how seriously Doflamingo is developing himself after sitting firmly on the seat of Shichibukai and King Dressrosa Overlord.

"How long has this auction been open?" Xia Lu asked a staff member who escorted her to the stage.

"It's been less than a year. I said, why are you asking so many questions? You should pray more. Your buyer must be a kind person. Otherwise, you will suffer in the days to come." Listen, listen. Why does it look like a joke, Xia Lu thought, but indeed, in this kind of world, no one will show sympathy for the weak, most of them are this kind of irony.

When Disco read Alger and Xia Lu's numbers, they were brought onto the stage. Xia Lu was surprised at the moment, there were at least a few hundred people in the audience.And who is sitting in the middle seat of the supreme VIP area if it is not a Tianlong person?Xia Lu took a closer look, this one was not from Knoss, nor from Servia's family. After thinking about it, she suddenly realized that it was St. Roswald, and the person sitting next to him was probably his son. Before she moved out of the Holy Land with the Don Quixote family, she heard that Saint Roswald had a young son.Although I didn't have much contact with them in the past, it's not like I didn't know them at all. After all, they all lived in Marie Gioia.

"This is our No. 15 literary youth and No. [-] long-haired beauty." The abducted traffickers are rarely the kind of people who know their names, so Disco doesn't know their names, so he just said It’s called, anyway, I want to talk about them so that they can drive up the price, and I can have a lot of Baileys in my pocket: "No. [-], an educated young man who combines music and literary talent, if you buy him , you can listen to piano music or the violin during afternoon tea, or let him read books and compose poems, housework and moral cultivation are both good, it is worth owning, the bidding price starts at [-], and the bidding starts now!"

The court was boiling, Xia Lu moved her body and asked Alger: "How much more do you have?"

The latter's complexion is not to mention how bad it is now, he really sighed, this idiot woman is still curious about this at this critical moment: "I used to like music, and I heard that there are good violins for sale in the Chambord Islands, so I came here. As a result, I fell into the trap of human traffickers near the musical instrument market."

"So it is."

"I want it! The bid is 100 million!" A voice sounded from the audience, and everyone looked in the direction of the voice. That's right, it was Roswald.

"Charles, this slave was given to you by your father. Don't you really want a slave who can play the piano and sing?" Roswald simply doted on his son.

"Thank you so much, Father."

After the Tianlong people raised their cards, even if the rest of the people were willing to buy Alger, they didn't dare to raise their cards anymore. May I ask who would dare to snatch things from the Tianlong people?Disco was so happy now, he tapped the wooden hammer three times in a hurry, 100 million Baileys, his eyes almost turned into Bailey symbols.

"Then let's congratulate St. Roswald for successfully bidding on the No. [-] product, Art Youth!" He announced to the audience.After Alger learned that his buyer was a Celestial Dragon, he almost fainted on the spot. The civilians who entered Mariejoia were almost all slaves. How many of them came out alive?In the worst case, they will be imprisoned in the Holy Land for a lifetime, deprived of freedom for a lifetime, devastated and violated by the Tianlong people for a lifetime, or they will die there directly without leaving any bones.

"Alger, Alger!" Xia Lu was about to roll her eyes when she saw Alger, and hurriedly called him.

"Don't call me, I really want to die like this..." Life is hopeless.

"You have the heart, don't you have the guts?" Xia Lu saw through Alger's mind, and then very bluntly, poked the sore spot of the young man in front of her: "If you have the ability to bite your tongue and kill yourself."

"..."

Next, Disco began to introduce Xia Lu. Since the traffickers didn't know what skills she was good at when she was arrested, Disco had to make up and sell it now: "Number 20 is this beautiful woman with long black hair and a good figure. , piano, chess, calligraphy and painting, dancing rhythm, cooking spoon, all proficient in everything, if anyone buys her back, he can not only serve as a maid, but also be full of nephrite jade and fragrance, and appreciate her graceful dancing posture, and taste her supreme beauty. Why not do it?! Beauty No. [-], the bidding price starts at [-]!"

I bother.Xia Lu complained so much that she didn't want to complain any more, you just cheated the bidders in the audience by talking so much.What kind of piano, chess, calligraphy, painting, dance and rhythm are proficient in everything. She is a good-for-nothing who knows nothing. What is even more outrageous is that she actually said that her cooking skills are superb. this speech.

"20 million!"

"23 million!"

"25 million!"

The people in the audience kept holding up the signs in their hands, Xia Lu sighed, what a pity, how could she escape now.I heard that the ring worn around the neck can only be opened with the buyer's key. If you escape without authorization, you may be blown to pieces.

"100 million!" Come on, this time, it's the boss of the supreme VIP seat again.As the son of St. Roswald, Charl Rose was not to be outdone. He raised the sign and imitated his father's tone and shouted 100 million: "Father, I think this slave is very good. I want her to be sent to me just now." Singing with the slave in the one-hundred-degree lukewarm water."

I X!Due to the silence in the audience, Xia Lu heard this sentence clearly, this guy, how can he be so scary, is there any humanity in this? ? ?Ah, that's right, Tianlong people have no humanity at all.The warm water of [-] degrees, you are afraid that you want to burn us to death, and you are still singing, singing about you big-headed ghost!She still has to hurry to Beihai to find her daughter, she really doesn't want to waste her time on such boring things, as soon as she thinks of her daughter, Xia Lu gets excited, wishing to get Beihai directly.

"Ah! Congratulations to the noble world aristocrat Charles Saint, who successfully bid for the No. 100 commodity with [-] million yuan!" Disco really made a lot of money today, and his tone of voice was floating.

Next, Xia Lu and Alger were handed over to Roswald's servants. They were held in chains, like pet dogs for a day, which was really humiliating.The auction was still going on, and after that, a mermaid that caused a sensation appeared.There are a total of more than 40 items in this auction. In the end, except Alger, Xia Lu, and a mermaid were bought by the Tianlong people, the rest were also bought by various rich people and nobles. This is the end.The host, Disco, was so happy that he wanted to fly into the sky with bags of emerald green and golden Baileys in his arms. Human beings are really desire-oriented creatures.

"I didn't expect you to be bought by the Tianlong people. It seems that we have to walk the next road together." Alger said helplessly: "I don't know what will happen to us. I just thought that the Tianlong people would Imprinting a dragon's hoof on a slave makes me feel terrible!!" He hugged his head and squatted on the ground.

Xia Lu felt a little hairy in her heart. After all, she had seen with her own eyes how the dragon's hooves were branded on the slaves. That kind of feeling would not be pleasant.
