Chapter 217 Think more about your own problems

At Lowen's signal, Morgans, the host, immediately took his position.

"Dear guests, all the powerful people who are famous in the new world, I know you can't wait. Without further ado, the auction will begin immediately!"

Morgans held the microphone and was full of passion.

"Everyone is here for the artificial devil fruit technology, but before seeing its effects, everyone is bound to have some doubts. Do artificial devil fruits really exist? What are their effects?"

"That makes sense."

Several kings of the underground world nodded in agreement.

They are all mature people in society and will not easily believe other people's one-sided words.

There are indeed some doubts about the effects of artificial devil fruits.

"In order to resolve everyone's doubts, Lord Loven has already thought about it! Before auctioning the artificial devil fruit technology, five artificial devil fruits will be auctioned first to let everyone see the effect!" Morgans explained with a smile.

"That's not bad."

Everyone agreed with Lowen's approach.

Now I can see it with my own eyes before deciding whether to buy it.

"The starting price for each artificial devil fruit is 1000 million berries, and each bid must be increased by no less than million berries!"

"Dear wealthy people, please raise your number plates and bid enthusiastically!"

Morgans took the microphone and stirred up the emotions of the crowd.

The crowd did not raise their signs crazily, but instead found it incredible.

"Seize the young master!?"

Pierrecloth cried out in surprise.

The starting price is 1 million, and each bid increase must be no less than 1 million Baileys. This is blatant robbery!

You know, this artificial devil fruit has its shortcomings and is much worse than ordinary animal-type devil fruits.

They are interested in artificial devil fruit technology only because it can be used to form a stable army of people with special abilities, not because of how powerful the artificial devil fruits are.

The price of an ordinary animal-type devil fruit is around 1 million Beli.

For an artificial devil fruit with some serious defects like this, 50 million Baileys would be a high price.

Selling it for 100 million Baileys requires bidding. Isn't this obviously a fraud on consumers?

Even if they have money, they wouldn't spend it like this!

"Cough cough."

Lowen coughed twice and looked at Morgans.

Morgans understood what he meant and immediately said to the assassin king Pierclo who had just spoken, "If you can't afford it, you don't have to buy it. Is the artificial devil fruit with a starting price of 100 million berries very expensive?"

"What's expensive? Don't think our things are expensive, think about your own problems, have you worked hard to make money, have you saved any money after all these years!"

As he spoke, Morgans showed a look of disgust.

"you!"

Pierre-Emerick was furious.

Damn it, isn't this just mocking him for being poor?

Who are you looking down on?

"1 million Baileys, 1 million. I'll take one and let you, a birdman, know my strength!"

Pierrecloth roared.

When he pays the money later, he will use his Bailey to smash Morganus' bird head flat.

"King of assassins Pierclo offers 1 million Baileys and 1 million! Is there a higher price?"

Morganse ignored Pierclo's roar and spoke as if nothing had happened.

"1 million Baileys, 5 million."

Field silently raised his sign and bid.

Although 100 million berries is too expensive compared to the value of the artificial devil fruit itself, it is worth spending 200 million berries to determine the value of the artificial devil fruit technology.

"The loan shark king is indeed generous. He raised the price to 5 million Baileys! Is there a higher price?"

Morganse said cheerfully, not forgetting to glance at Pierre Clod.

"You idiot, you spent so much money on an artificial devil fruit, isn't it really better to buy one?"

Pierreclo said through gritted teeth.

"Don't ask if you can't afford it. Feld is a famous rich man. You can't compare to him."

Morganse flattered Feld.

A qualified auctioneer should give the financial sponsor a great sense of satisfaction.

"That's right, don't cry, poor bastard, I'll give you 2 million Baileys!"

The Golden Emperor, who looked like a wealthy man, also made a direct bid of 5 million Baileys.

He lacks love and strength, but he has money.

He wanted to take the first artificial devil fruit and try it out.

"Golden Emperor offers 200 million Baileys, is there anyone willing to follow?"

Morgans' eyes lit up and he looked at Feld.

"I'll wait for the next one."

Feld shook his head and stopped raising the price.

If it was Pierre-Emerick Aubrey, he could try to raise the price.

But his opponent is the Golden Emperor, a person who controls 20% of the world's wealth. Comparing money with him is completely out of his mind.

Even if we really want to compete, we have to wait until the artificial devil fruit technology is auctioned.

"Then congratulations to Mr. Golden Emperor Tezulo for winning the first artificial devil fruit with 200 million berries!"

With a smile on his face, Morgans confirmed the ownership of the first artificial devil fruit.

After Tesoro paid 200 million Beli, the artificial devil fruit was also delivered to Tesoro.

“It’s a bit ugly.”

Tesoro looked at the artificial devil fruit in his hand with a look of disgust.

Compared to the Gold-Gold Fruit he ate, this thing was too ugly.

But it doesn’t matter, he’s not the one eating it.

He casually handed the artificial devil fruit to one of his men and ordered him to eat it.

At this time, everyone turned their eyes to Tezoro and observed the changes in his men.

"Ah! Ah! Ah!"

The moment he ate the artificial devil fruit, his subordinates let out shrill screams.

Blood vessels all over his body burst, like dark red earthworms surging on his skin.

After a moment, the subordinate was no longer in pain and stood up with an expressionless face.

He was lucky enough not to explode, but the negative effects of the artificial devil fruit still made him lose all emotions except for his smile.

After a simple test, Tezulo found that the artificial devil fruit was true. Although it was weaker than the normal devil fruit, it was generally usable.

"Artificial Devil Fruit Technology, I Want It!"

The moment he determined the effect, Tezulo made his decision.

No matter what the cost, he is determined to master the technology of artificial devil fruits, build an army of people with special abilities, and sweep away everything!

Four billion Baileys, five billion Baileys?

His wallet was already open, waiting for Lowen to take it.
