Chapter 481 Halo Fruit x Recruitment
It's you, Borsalino.
Sensing the malicious gaze, Borsalino raised his head and his eyes met Sengoku's.
He secretly said something bad.
Sure enough, the next moment, his premonition came true.
All I heard was that Zhan Guo ordered in a tone that could not be refused: "Borsalino, please make a trip!"
"You are the fastest. With you holding them back, Xia Jieren and his group won't be able to escape easily."
Borsalino waved his hands repeatedly: "Please spare me! Marshal Zhan Guo!"
"Sanda's speed is comparable to mine, not to mention the mysterious Gate."
"Hold them back. You think too highly of me."
Borsalino racked his brains and tried his best to excuse himself.
But Zhan Guo has made a decision and will not change it easily.
No matter how Borsalino refused, Sengoku remained unmoved.
Seeing that the candidate had been decided, all the generals breathed a sigh of relief.
The [Chabaoti Archipelago] is so close to [Mariejoa] that no one wants to get involved in this muddy water.
Working for the Celestial Dragons would only make things difficult for yourself.
Zhan Guo continued to assign tasks to others.
Borsalino stood up with a bitter face and planned to go to the Sabaody Archipelago.
[Chabaoti Archipelago] Storms gather.
The auction is getting closer.
Xia Jieren finished the "fishing" game, returned to the hotel, packed up, and planned to go to the auction house.
After walking out of the [Air Gate], Xia Jieren and his group appeared in front of the door of the auction house.
They immediately became the focus of everyone's attention.
Facing everyone's gaze, Xia Jieren walked in calmly and confidently.
These are small scenes.
The auction house was bustling with people.
It is worth mentioning that this auction house does not have so-called VIP boxes.
But a space was isolated near the auction table.
That is a position reserved specifically for the Celestial Dragons.
A pirate captain with a bounty of over 100 million, a noble, a big businessman, the spokesperson of the king of the [Dark World], an unknown captain of the [Beast Pirates], a member of the [Big Mom Pirates]...
All kinds of people gather here.
After looking around, Xia Jieren found that he had the highest status and immediately felt a sense of superiority: "What a bunch of scum!"
Once everyone was seated, the auction started early.
Slaves, artworks, jewelry, rare ingredients...
Xia Jieren was not interested in any of it.
He glanced with interest at the people in the crowd who kept raising their prices, and muttered, "This auction house really knows how to do business."
Many smart people also discovered it, but none of them made it public.
Finally, it's the turn of the [Halo Fruit] to appear.
"The base price is 2 million Baileys! Each bid increase must be no less than 500 million Baileys!"
As soon as the auctioneer finished speaking, Xia Jieren raised his bidding card: "2 million Baileys!"
"2 million Baileys!"
Xia Jieren looked over when he heard the voice and discovered that it was the auction house's "shill".
Immediately, murderous intent flashed in Xia Jieren's eyes.
The "toer" felt as if he had fallen into an icy cave, with beads of cold sweat breaking out from his forehead.
Under Xia Jieren's gaze, he lowered his head and trembled.
After doing all this, Xia Jieren said coldly: "2 million Baileys!"
The auctioneer wiped his forehead and forced a smile, saying, "2 million Baileys for once!"
"Anyone else want to make an offer?"
"2 million!"
Suddenly, another person emerged to compete with Xia Jieren.
"Big Mom Pirates!" Xia Jieren was a little surprised, but continued to raise the price: "3 million Baileys!"
"3 million!"
"3 million!"
The price kept going up until it reached 3 million, when the Big Mom Pirates gave up.
Many people secretly laughed at Xia Jieren, saying that it was not worth it to pay nearly 4 million Beli for an ordinary [Paradox Devil Fruit].
But Xia Jieren didn't think so.
If the [Halo Fruit] is successfully developed, the benefits it brings to the Zerg cannot be measured in Baileys.
After getting what he wanted, Xia Jieren stood up and prepared to leave.
Many people were surprised when they saw this scene.
[CP] organized intelligence personnel to take out [Den Den Mushi] and hurriedly report the situation to their superiors.
"Master, there are two strong auras at the door."
"One of them should be Kizaru, and I've never seen the other one!"
On the way, Sanda reported in a low voice.
Xia Jieren nodded slightly.
Gate suggested: "Master, do we need to open the [Air Gate] immediately and head to the nearest island?"
"No need!" Xia Jieren shook his head and said with a smile: "This is a great opportunity."
"Sanda, Gate, you two should feel the strength of the admiral level and strive to break through as soon as possible."
"Yes!" Gate and Sanda looked at each other and said in unison.
As they walked, the two adjusted their states, striving to reach the best condition.
Xia Jieren smiled slightly.
Soon, the three of them arrived at the door.
Borsalino and a [CP0] wearing a tearful mask stood blatantly in front of the door, waiting quietly.
Xia Jieren looked at the two of them and said enthusiastically, "General Kizaru, and this unknown [CP0], hello!"
"What a polite young man!" Borsalino still said in that strange tone.
【CP0】No response.
Seeing that the two had no reaction, Xia Jieren suddenly felt bored.
Suddenly, he seemed to think of something and said seriously: "General Kizaru! Do you want to join our [Netherlands Kingdom]?"
"Free food and accommodation, five insurances and one housing fund, five days on and two days off, annual salary of 1 million Baileys, ten days of annual leave per year..."
Xia Jieren talked a lot.
Borsalino was confused at first, then he was excited.
He glanced at [CP0].
If he wasn't an eyesore here, Borsalino would have had a long talk with Xia Jieren to discuss the issue of treatment.
Finally, Xia Jieren said seriously: "General Kizaru, if you are not satisfied with anything, please feel free to ask."
"As long as you can join the [Netherlands Kingdom], all conditions can be negotiated!"
Kizaru opened his mouth and was about to answer.
At this time, [CP0] on the side could no longer bear it.
He said in a cold voice: "General Kizaru, I will report everything here truthfully!"
"Oh no! This kid wants to tell on me!" Kizaru's heart trembled, and he looked at [CP0] with an unfriendly look.
Kizaru wanted to explain.
The next moment, [CP0]'s figure disappeared from the spot, and in the blink of an eye, he appeared in front of Xia Jieren.
Gate appeared in time to block his shiny black "finger gun".
Sanda also took action and forced him back dozens of meters.
Xia Jieren glanced at [CP0] calmly, and asked with a smile: "How about it? General Kizaru, do you want to join us?"
Borsalino put his hands in his pockets and shook his head slightly: "No! I am very satisfied with the current treatment!"
"What a pity! If you want to change jobs, you must give priority to us [Netherlands Kingdom]."
"If your naval colleagues have the same idea, you can also contact us."
"Preferential treatment!"
