One Piece: The Soul Purchasing Pirate

The next day was just dawn, and the sun's rays passed through the seven-color bubbles and shone on the ground of the Chambord Islands, casting rays of light.

Behind a big tree in Area 4.

Crocodile closed his eyes, his face was calm, he seemed to be feeling something.

The sound of the breeze blowing, the sound of the green grass shaking under his feet, the sound of the birds scratching their heads on the branches, these series of sounds can be clearly detected by his ears, no, to be precise, his perception.

If someone with keen perception pays close attention at this moment, they will be able to find some fine particles floating in the area within a radius of 30 meters from Crocodile.

These particles are very small and difficult to see with the naked eye, but they really exist.

Just like Crocodile's extended tentacles, these particles can clearly feed back all the nearby information to him, amplifying his perception of being at a disadvantage to the strongest in an instant.

Even, after his control becomes deeper and deeper, he can rely on these sand particles to form an ability similar to the color of knowledge.

After the battle with Zefa, Crocodile was deeply aware of his own shortcomings, and was even more shocked by the terrifying perception of the general level. Therefore, he has been thinking for the past two days whether he can also have such power.

Until this morning, he finally controlled the grains of sand and formed this new ability.

Because he has just mastered it, he is actually not very familiar with this ability, but as time goes by, he will definitely be able to tap it to a terrifying level.

Sensing everything around him carefully, although he closed his eyes, he clearly grasped every movement around him.

Suddenly, he spoke indifferently.

"Now to act?"

Stepping over, the woman who was still 30 meters away was stunned. Her eyesight is very good, so she can clearly see that the man who is 30 meters away from her has his eyes closed.

But the other party, with his eyes closed, could even notice her coming?

"Well, the auction starts in half an hour, and this half hour is our chance!"

The woman spoke up.

It wasn't until the woman was ten meters away from Crocodile that the latter opened his eyes. His eyes were indifferent, with a touch of joy.

Mastering a new ability is indeed a joyful thing for him.

"Let's go!"

Lighting a cigar, Crocodile took the lead.

Five minutes later, the two walked in from the auction door grandly.

No one stopped them, and no one felt suspicious. This auction is very big, and there are all kinds of people. The bodyguards only need to ensure safety, and they don't need to be responsible for other things. In addition, the owner of the auction is backed by the Tianlong people, who are so powerful that even the navy cannot be insulted, so they naturally have this kind of confidence.

"how do you want to do it?"

Crocodile asked quietly.

Naturally, he would not be so stupid as to think that the other party came to the auction through formal channels.

"follow me."

The blond woman whispered.

As she said that, she quickened her pace and walked along the side aisle of the two seats in the auction, and soon came to the rostrum in front, and walked towards the back with a natural expression.

Crocodile narrowed his eyes and remained calm. He wanted to see what the woman was trying to do.

"Delia, hurry up, the boss is already urging you, where have you been?"

When they walked under the rostrum, behind the curtain, a man with a sharp face poked his head out and shouted anxiously.

"Here, I'm going to find my elder brother. He is very strong and can definitely help us."

delia said with a smile.

The pointed-faced man glanced at Crocodile, seemed to be overwhelmed by his fierce appearance, and kept silent.

"Is he safe?"

He murmured, but quickly moved out of the way. Although the other party was a woman, she held a very high status in this auction.

Delia led the way, and the two quickly entered the curtain and came behind the auction stage.

Crocodile came behind the scenes, squinted and took a deep look at Delia.

It turned out that he had mixed into the ranks of this auctioneer's handyman, and saw that after the woman entered, many people greeted her, it seemed that she was doing well. And this also means that the other party has paid a considerable amount of patience and price.

It is not easy to do odd jobs in such a large auction. You must have a clean background, a clean family background, and a certain amount of courage. After all, this auction usually deals with rich people and nobles, and there will even be Tianlong people among them.

"follow me!"

After entering the backstage, Delia quickly greeted the people around, and after arranging a few people to do something, she approached Crocodile.

"I'll take you to get the devil fruit first, but you, get the devil fruit, you must help me save someone!"

There was anxiety and worry in her words, but she was forcing herself to calm down.

Crocodile's eyes flashed, and he nodded slightly.

It's just saving people, it's not a big deal to him. Relatively speaking, a devil fruit is worth at least 100 million!

Yesterday, when he wandered around the auction house, it was precisely because of greed in his heart. A devil fruit, even if he can't use it, Terensu, Luo Chen, and the other six people are all useful.

Soon, the two walked quickly all the way, and three minutes later, they came to the door of a bedroom.

"Devil Fruits are guarded by special personnel, and they are all experienced experts."

Delia glanced at Crocodile worriedly, doubting whether the other party could solve these people.

In fact, without Delia's telling, Crocodile's grains of sand had already spread out, and through perception, the location of the devil fruit was detected.

He strode forward towards the box surrounded by thirteen people.

"Who are you? Get out of here!"

The bodyguard in black asked loudly.

However, Crocodile ignored it and quickened his pace. At the same time, the sand grains floating in the air began to combine with each other one by one. After three breaths, a large number of sand grains appeared in front of the bodyguards.

In their horrified eyes, the grains of sand transformed into long knives and daggers.

Then, just one quick swipe.

"Plop!"

One after another figures fell to the ground, with horror and fear.

When everyone fell to the ground, Crocodile had already stepped forward, lifted the box with his right hand, and held it in his hand.

"Walk!"

Turning around, Crocodile came to Delia's side and said softly.

It was effortless for him to deal with a few minions, but he got the devil fruit quite smoothly.

"You, you are so strong!"

Delia was shocked. She knew very well the strength of these bodyguards. Each of them was equivalent to those big pirates with a bounty of 30 to 40 million, but they were so easily dealt with by the other party.

At the same time, she felt more hopeful about saving her younger brother.

"Where is the guy to save?"
