When White Beard and Shanks arrived at the auction house, they were a little surprised because it was completely different from what they had imagined.
In front of them was a door that could allow four to five people to walk in at the same time. The door was about seven to eight meters tall and was wide open. There was only a simple plaque on it, and on it were the words " All Auction Houses." It was far from what they had imagined.
"Is this the place?"
Marko thought that this kid had led them the wrong way and immediately questioned him.
The young man was shocked. However, he had already brought a group of people with him. The people from before had similar expressions as them, and their attitudes were even worse. Therefore, he was not as nervous and afraid as last time. He only replied in a low voice,"This is the only auction house on our island. In fact, it just opened today.”
"It just opened today?"
Marko was shocked. Actually, they had investigated the origins of all the auction houses before coming here, but they did not have any information. Fortunately, they had heard about this island. They had thought that they would be surprised when they came, but now they were surprised, but they were not happy at all.
" No wonder we couldn't find any trace of it," White Beard said in relief." It turns out that the other party did it on purpose."”
Shanks nodded in agreement." Good idea. We won't be able to find out who they are. However, I'm getting more and more interested. The owner of this auction house must be a very interesting guy. I believe that this auction won't disappoint us."”
Although this was just a feeling, Shanks firmly believed that the other party had played so many tricks. If there was no surprise, there was no need to do this. After all, if he angered the people who came this time, he would definitely not end well.
"You can go. There's nothing for you to do here.”
At this moment, an old man in his fifties walked out of the auction house. He had short white hair and a goatee. He was dressed neatly and had an amiable face. He looked like a learned old man.
After the old man appeared, he first waved at the young man who was leading the way. Then, the young man immediately ran away as if he had been relieved of a heavy burden.
Then, the old man smiled and said to White Beard and the others,"You must be the distinguished guests from the new world, the Whitebeard Pirates and the Red-Haired Pirates. I'm Saars. It's my honor to meet you.”
"Hello, old man. Are you the owner of this auction house?”
Shanks saw that the old man had an extraordinary bearing and was well-mannered. Most importantly, his words were very comfortable, so he asked in a very gentle tone.
Hearing Shanks 'words, everyone stared at the old man. However, what made everyone frown was that this old man called Sars did not have the aura of a strong person at all. He was just an ordinary person.
"This must be the famous Four Emperors of the New World, Mr. Red-haired Shanks. You've misunderstood. I'm not the owner of this auction house. I'm just a part-timer."”
"You're not the boss?"
White Beard frowned and asked,""Since you're not the boss, where's your boss?”
Although White Beard was very strong, he naturally would not be able to suppress an ordinary old man. Therefore, Saars was not affected at all and continued,"I'm sorry, our boss said that he's just a nobody. For the sake of safety, it's better not to show his face.”
"Gulalala."
White Beard laughed and asked,""Interesting. Your boss is afraid and doesn't dare to show his face, but you dare to show your face?”
"I'm just an ordinary person. I was saved by Boss, which is why I'm still alive. Life and death are no longer that important to me. It's enough as long as I can repay Boss for saving my life."”
At this point, he suddenly paused and then said,"However, our boss said that big shots like you definitely won't be calculative with small figures like us, so this old man isn't that afraid.”
White Beard, Shanks, and the others were getting more and more curious. Although this old man did not have much power, his bearing and speech were not like an ordinary person at all. He could even say words that were fearless of life and death, which really surprised them. However, they were even more curious about this behind-the-scenes boss. To be able to get the obedience of an old man like Sarth, he must not be an ordinary person.
" If you don't have any more questions, you can enter the venue with your invitation," Saars said." I've already prepared seats for you. I'll take you there now."”
Marko and Shanks both took out their invitations and handed them to Sars. Then, they said,"Let's go."
Saars received the invitation letter but did not lead the way. Instead, he stopped White Beard and the others who were about to enter and said,"I'm sorry, everyone. You only have two invitations, so only Mr. White Beard and Mr. Red Hair can bring one person in each.”
"What?"
Upon hearing this, a burly man beside White Beard shouted loudly. He was the captain of the third squad of the White Beard Pirates, Diamond Joze. When he shouted, his tiger eyes glared, and the aura on his body immediately emitted.
"Old man, you dare not let us in?”
Clearly, Saars wasn't frightened by Joze. He continued,""I'm sorry, everyone. This is the boss's rule. Us servants naturally don't dare to violate it.”
Shanks frowned slightly and said to Ben Beckman,""Beckman, come with me. The others can go back to the ship and wait.”
Ben Beckman nodded, smoked a cigarette, and waited with Shanks in front of Saars.
White Beard thought for a moment, but before he could say anything, Marko said,"Dad, we also want to go in and see what's going on. I also want to see just how capable this auction house is. We're already here, but they still dare to stop us from going in.”
White Beard's eyes flashed, but he did not say anything. It was obvious that he had tacitly agreed. Shanks and the others watched with interest. They knew what the White Beard Pirates wanted. They wanted to test the depths of all the auction houses. They did not stop them, nor did they agree. They were just watching the show and were not afraid of things getting out of hand.
