Chambord Islands, Area 13.
He owned a very special bar called Xia Qi's Rip Off Bar.
Why was it special? Because this bar was actually just a disguise. Its true identity was actually an intelligence agency.
The person in charge of this information was a woman with a very special identity. Her name was Xia Qi.
Not only Xia Qi, but there was also an even more unexpected person who lived in seclusion in this bar.
The legendary pirate, the former pirate king's right-hand man, King of Hell Riley.
Xia Qi and Lei Li both had their own double identities. One was the owner of a small bar, and the other was an old man who relied on his skills to do coating business.
Overall, his life was quite comfortable.
……
Today, the Rip Off Bar welcomed a special guest.
Xia Qi, on the other hand, seemed to have expected this and did not show any signs of surprise.
"Officer Lin, I thought you were going to attend the auction first and then come here!”
Xia Qi blew out a smoke ring and said indifferently.
"Xia Qi, your intelligence gathering ability is still as outstanding as it was forty years ago.”
Lin Yan shook his head and did not stand on ceremony. He casually found a place and sat down.
"Officer Lin, with our friendship, there's no need to say more compliments. Why don't you tell me the purpose of your visit?”
Xia Qi asked curiously.
"Xia Qi, forty years have passed since Captain Locks 'era. Are you interested in boarding the ship again?”
Lin Yan asked.
Xia Qi's intelligence ability was definitely the best in the world. She was even comparable to the World Government.
If Xia Qi joined, Lin Yan's future actions would be much more convenient.
"Hehehe…Officer Lin, I don't have the ambition you have.
I'm just a little woman. I'm very satisfied with my current ordinary life.”
Xia Qi shook her head.
"Little woman? Xia Qi, do I have some misunderstanding about little women? Aunt Xia's name was very famous in the underground world.”
Lin Yan teased.
"No, no, I'm just making a living. I'm making some plans for my future.”
Xia Qi replied without changing her expression.
For old foxes like them who had lived for decades and witnessed the changes of two eras, there were very few things that could make them put on their faces.
"Haha…since you don't have that thought, then forget it.
The first is to catch up with an old friend, and the second is to ask you to help me gather information about the Demon Fruit…"
Lin Yan laughed loudly and slowly revealed his purpose.
"Hmm? Demon Fruit? Officer Lin, I don't remember you being an aptitude user, and at your level...
If he hadn't encountered an ability that was very compatible with him, he wouldn't have deliberately searched for it, right?”
Xia Qi asked doubtfully.
"No, I'm not using it to eat. I have another use for it.”
Lin Yan shook his head with a smile and did not explain further.
In this world, it was enough for him to know about the matter of the broken jade.
"I understand, but my fees here are not low. How much is Officer Lin planning to pay me?”
Xia Qi asked with a smile.
"100 million Bailey. As long as you can provide me with information about the Devil's Fruit, and the information can be verified, I will give you 100 million Bailey for each Devil's Fruit.”
Lin Yan said in a deep voice.
The Demon Fruit was related to whether Broken Jade could evolve to the next stage. Compared to the benefits, this little reward was nothing.
Moreover, Lin Yan wanted a long-term partnership.
Xia Qi was the best choice for Lin Yan no matter how he looked at it, be it her identity or the power she currently possessed.
"Hiss! Officer Lin, you're really generous. In that case, I'll accept this business.”
Xia Qi asked in surprise.
"Since Officer Lin is so generous, I'll give you a piece of information for free as a token of my sincerity!”
……
Ten minutes later.
Lin Yan stood up and left the Rip Off Bar.
He brought Wurch and the others to the population auction in District 1.
Lin Yan had just learned from Xia Qi that there would be two Devil Fruits being auctioned today.
Animal Type, Human-Human Fruit, Demon-Man Form, Animal Type, Insect Fruit, Scorpion Form.
After receiving this news, Lin Yan was slightly surprised.
After all, these two fruits were quite rare magical beast species. As for their power, it could only depend on one's own development.
However, he could refer to Sengoku and Marko.
The fruit ability of these two people belonged to one of the magical beast species.
However, the rarer the fruits were, the more Lin Yan wanted them.
It just so happened that Kali, as his slave, was a little weaker. The Human-Eating Fruit could make up for this flaw.
As for the other one, it was just right to be used as nourishment for the Broken Jade.
……
At this moment, in the auction.
Although it had not officially started, people were already whispering to each other, making the empty auction venue look lively and extraordinary.
The people who participated in this auction were basically either rich or noble.
However, as two men and a woman wearing white protective suits walked in with glass hoods, the entire auction hall instantly fell silent.
He didn't even dare to breathe loudly, afraid that he would anger the person who came.
These three people were the Heavenly Dragon people who considered themselves as the descendants of the masters of creation, Rozwade's family.
"Father, the slave you lent me last time was really fun. When will you lend it to me again?”
Saint Charlos asked with snot dripping from his nostrils.
"When I find a new slave, I will lend Charlos to you to play with.”
Rozward, who was wearing sunglasses and had a mustache, said with a smile.
"Father, I'm already tired of your ordinary hard work.
I heard that there are two Demon Fruits this time. I'll bid for them and give them to the slaves. It should be more fun for aptitude users, hahaha.”
Loliya Gong, who was wearing sunglasses and covering her face with a scarf, laughed.
"Humph! Luria, I don't care what you want to do, but you can't snatch the Human-Being Fruit from me this time. Otherwise…I'll make you understand how powerful I am.”
Charlos threatened.
"Impudent! Charlos, don't think that you can threaten me just because you're a little older than me. Wait, we'll talk with our strength.”
Luria said disdainfully.
"You…"
"Alright, alright. Don't let the two of you hurt each other's feelings over a Devil's Fruit. Aren't there two in this auction?”
Rozward said matter-of-factly.
It was as if everyone present did not exist, and the ownership of the Demon Fruit was up to him to distribute.
As expected, the Heavenly Dragon people were not just arrogant!
"Humph!"
Luria was too lazy to argue with this ugly person who had disgusting snot all day long. She snorted coldly, walked to her favorite seat, and sat down.
He looked very dignified and eye-catching.
Unfortunately, hidden under her beautiful appearance was a rotten and smelly heart.
