Chapter 509
Each country on the Great Voyage was basically different, and the customs and landforms, including the food, were also different, and the food in some places was very different to the taste of the land.
The snacks here in Prodeens are very good, and the flavor is unique.
After tasting it, the group soon came to an area located on the northeast side of the Kingdom of Prodeens, and when they entered here, they could clearly feel that the style of the building was much older.
“Actually, it was the poorest place in the country in the first place. ”
Stussy looked around and whispered, “The poor don’t have the money to build new houses, so they have to live in these old and dilapidated buildings. ”
Doflamingo took over the topic, smiled a little wickedly, and said, “But then the old buildings here became less and less, and gradually became rarer, and began to attract people to buy them, and now they have become a place where nobles and rich people live. ”
It is for this reason that these relics have been preserved, because they are a symbol of status for the nobles and the rich. ”
Robin was carefully observing a very old building, and when he heard Doflamingo’s words, he said, “If you say that, you can still owe this precious history to these noble and rich people.” ”
Doflamingo glanced around a little mockingly, and said, “That’s it, but in fact these are just the playthings of the nobility, and that’s where the value of history lies.” ”
“Nope. ”
Robin looked at Doflamingo and said, “The preciousness of history cannot be measured by simple value. ”
Doflamingo chuckled, and was about to refute something, but suddenly noticed that Lu Li’s gaze was looking at him.
Seeing Lu Li’s kind gaze, Doflamingo’s voice paused, then looked at Robin and said, “… Well, you’re right, history is indeed something of value. ”
“There seems to be a lot of people gathered in front of you?”
Lu Li retracted his gaze to Doflamingo, and looked somewhere in front of him, where was a large old building, like an open-air gladiatorial arena, but the style was very dilapidated and ancient.
Stussy looked in the direction of Lu Li’s gaze and said, “It was originally a gladiatorial arena, but it was abandoned a long time ago, and now it is used as an auction venue, where some good things from the sea will be auctioned, and famous knives and devil fruits will occasionally appear.” ”
“Oh, let’s go check it out. ”
After Lu Li came to this world, although he had come into contact with various Devil Fruit abilities, he had not seen a Devil Fruit yet.
Devil Fruits are common, and they can be said to be very common on the Great Voyage, but if they are rare, they are actually very rare, and if you are unlucky, you can’t just encounter them.
The Holy Land Mary Joya should have some devil fruits, but he basically destroyed them all after a Shinra Heavenly Expedition, and he didn’t bother to look for fragments in the ruins at that time, after all, the destruction was all destroyed, and it would be undignified to rummage through the ruins again.
Admission to the auction venue is not completely open to the public, but even putting aside Lu Li’s identity, whether it is Stussy or Doflamingo in CP0, they are big names in both black and white, and the admission qualification can naturally be obtained casually.

Robin is still more interested in the ancient ruins that have not yet been explored, but the auction is about to begin, and naturally Lu Li’s idea is more important.
Since it is an open-air auction venue, there are no VIP boxes or anything like that, but the aristocracy and royal families are basically concentrated in the front row.
Lu Li, who has a relatively low-key style, casually chose a few vacant seats in the back with Robin and others, even if he used illusion to reduce his sense of existence, it only reduced his deterrence and charm to a certain extent The impact of his charm on the outside world, after all, his appearance and charm are too high, if he is in too conspicuous places, it will inevitably be noticed.
“…… The next auction is the second-generation Muramasa, who belongs to one of the twenty-one workers of the Great Quick Knife, which is said to be one of the rumored demon knives, and it is difficult for non-powerful people to control this knife. ”
After passing through antiques, calligraphy and paintings, and so on, something finally appeared that made Lu Li take a look, but it was only a glance.
Although the 21st work of the big fast knife is also a rare famous knife, it does not match his style.
His Slashing Sword Dragon Soul Seven Spirits, which was obviously an artifact above the Twelve Crafts of the Supreme Quick Sword, was refined by him into a Spirit King clone and stayed in the Death World.
So even if it’s just used for decoration, it has to be one of the twelve jobs of the Supreme Great Quick Knife to barely qualify.
Because the Kingdom of Prodes itself is a country with strong folk customs, the auction of the second generation of Muramasa was more popular than the previous antique calligraphy and paintings, and finally sold for 77 million Baileys.
This price is already high for a sword, as the vast majority of swordsmen are not very rich.
“Cong Yunche, a generation of Muramasa, a generation of ghosts, night… There seem to be a lot of demon knives in the Supreme Quick Knife. Robin sat next to Lu Li and spoke thoughtfully.
She wasn’t very interested in swords, but as an archaeologist, she had read enough books, and some of the famous swords themselves represented history, so she had some knowledge of them.
“Because the Supreme Knife is too difficult to control, most of the Supreme Knife has some ferocious characteristics, and if you can’t control it, you will be injured by the knife, so it is called a demon knife. ”
Lu Li folded his arms in front of him and spoke.
Like one of the Great Quick Blades, the Enma will overuse domineering power and drain the energy of the sword wielder himself, which can also be counted as a kind of demon knife, but compared to the Muramasa and Onitoru who are spread outside, it has not killed many people, so it has not been named a demon sword.
“It seems that Mr. Lu Li is more interested in demon knives. ”
Doflamingo looked over.
Lu Li said calmly: “Sort of.” ”
Compared with ordinary knives, the demon knife is naturally more interesting, after all, it is not used for fighting, but only for decoration and play.
“Hmm…”
Doflamingo’s eyes flickered a few times, and after he was about to go back, he immediately mobilized the channel news of the dark world and the power of the bright world of the world government, and searched for the part of the demon knife in the Supreme Quick Knife Twelve Jobs from black and white.
For an existence like Lu Li, it is natural that he must not miss the opportunity to show favor and win over, and he knows enough things to know this too well.
