I, Uchiha Itachi, became the tenth member of the Straw Hats?

Looking at the crooked old man in front of him who made such a heavy request to himself without explaining any reason, Itachi was silent for a moment.

Itachi said: "Mr., please answer my question."

"Otherwise, I will never agree to these requests you said."

"I got this so-called spirit of the tree world without any reason, and I don't want it either."

Saying that, Itachi raised the knife and was about to gouge out his chest.

"do not want!"

Two teardrops slipped across the dry eye sockets of the crooked old man.

"In the future, you and your companions will come into contact with the stories that have happened in this world."

"The spirit of the tree world has chosen you, and it will also help you and your companions in the future."

"As for the Kozuki Clan of Wano Country, that is a private request to you!"

"How to deal with the Kozuki clan will be decided by your judgment of Wano Country at that time."

"but..."

There was a trace of painful coldness in the crooked old man's eyes.

"No matter what, the Kozuki clan is no longer worthy to be the ruler of Wano country!"

"Lost inheritance, lost mission, lost belief, lost everything..."

"Not worthy, those people are not worthy anymore."

The crooked old man turned around slowly, and walked towards the dark shadow with difficulty.

"Please forgive me, Your Excellency Itachi."

"I cannot explain to you the fate entrusted to you, I am extremely sorry."

"I still have a little bit of strength to spare. I'm going to do one last thing for you, the new inheritor of the spirit of the tree world."

"If one day, you have arrived there, I believe you will know your destiny."

"At that time, I will convey everything to you who have touched the door to the new world."

As the rickety old man staggered more and more, the air in front of him seemed to be torn apart, and gradually, the rickety old man completely disappeared into the darkness.

When the crooked old man said these words, the body force field restraint that he built for Itachi was released again.

...

In the auction house, everyone heard the huge shock just now.

After the host wearing a clown mask communicated with the armored guards, the clown host spoke again in his characteristic slightly funny tone.

"Friends, there were some incidents that had nothing to do with us just now, please don't worry too much."

"Auction, continue."

As he said that, the clown continued to display the main auction items in this session, a total of 23 devil fruits.

The fruit on Freys' ship is also up for auction. It has been confirmed that the fruit Freys and the others brought is a shield fruit.

In the spectator seats off the field, Fraise was explaining to Luo.

"At each auction, the most important and most important treasures will be auctioned first."

"Secondly, like some medicinal materials and jewelry on our ship and the treasures we robbed, that is to be traded through the Rand coin free trade fair after the auction."

"Here, they take ten percent off every time the trade is aggregated."

"Ten percent..." Luo Xin said that the commission was really high.

"That's right, but there's nothing we can do about it. After all, in the entire new world, there's only one place where you can trade fairly. If it's a one-way transaction between pirates and pirates, then there's no need to trade. Blink." Frey S said.

At this time, the person wearing a black mask beside Luo spoke.

"Yeah, otherwise they would be called the black market for nothing."

Luo looked at this person. This person sounded very young, and he was also wearing a mask and a black robe, but what made Luo feel a little strange was that even though this person was wearing a black robe, he still wore a black gentleman's hat on his head.

At first, Luo thought it was a symbol of this man's aristocratic status, but it was strange that there was still a pair of adventure goggles stuck on the brim of the gentleman's top hat.

When Luo looked at this person, Itachi had already quietly sat down beside Freys.

"Brother!" Frass poked Luo, and Luo found that Itachi had returned.

"So fast!?"

Itachi hummed.

"Then...finally,"

Itachi didn't speak, he nodded towards Luo.

Luo immediately understood, but Itachi suddenly said.

"It's different from what I thought, not what you said."

"Isn't that something? What is that?"

"It's similar in nature." Itachi didn't say much. After he and Luo looked at each other, Luo understood what Itachi meant.

This is not the place to say such things.

Around them, there are countless pirates who are paying attention to the auction.

"After the transaction is completed, we can retreat." Luo said.

On the field, with the clown host's commentary and cheers, the auction of the shield fruit has reached the bidding stage.

"According to the illustrated book, after eating this fruit, the ability user can turn any part of his body into a shield. If he can awaken it, he can even use any objects around him as a shield to strengthen defense and attack."

"Captains, why don't you arrange such a reliable fruit for your combatants?"

"Come on everyone, the auction time is up."

"The starting price is three rand coins, and the minimum price increase is one rand coin."

Before the clown host finished speaking, someone had already raised a placard.

"I offer three."

"Three."

"I give four!"

"This friend has four."

"I offer five."

"Six..."

"I offer seven!"

"I'll offer ten!"

"I offer twelve."

Just as everyone was calling for prices, a big man sitting in the center of the hall stretched out a hand covered with gemstone rings from his black robe.

"I give, one thousand!"

As soon as these words came out, all the pirates in the hall looked at him.

Luo, Itachi and the others also noticed that this big man was exactly the big man with the brown beast mask they met at the Fried Restaurant.

"This guest?" The joke and banter on the clown host's face disappeared instantly, and he pointed at the big man.

"Are you really asking for a thousand?"

"Thief hahaha!"

"Yeah, it's over if you don't ask the price."

"But you have to pay attention, the price of [-] rand coins I mentioned is not just this devil fruit."

"do you think so!?"

"Ariel!!"

The outstretched palm of the big man clenched suddenly, and a white and transparent circular wave appeared in his hand.

"Wait? That's it!"

"Is it the Zhenzhen fruit?"

Before the pirates were astonished, the big man shattered the surrounding air, and a crack stretched directly from the trading house to the distant city wall. With the rupture of the air, the earth was directly shaken away!

While the clown host was still in astonishment, he and the dozen or so pirates in the front row were blown apart by the powerful air and torn apart along with the air.

At the same time, the old man with a scarred face who was on the second floor of the exchange had already looked at the big man.

"Marshall D. Teach?"

"It's really you."

"Thief hahaha! Ariel, I've heard your name for a long time!"

Blackbeard took off the beast mask, shocking all the pirates present.

"This is...the Four Emperors of the New World, Blackbeard!!!"

"Why is he here?"

Hearing the words, Blackbeard still laughed wildly.

"Thief hahaha, did you hear that, Ariel?"

"They asked me why I was here."

"I'd like to ask you more, as an admiral of the previous generation, how could you... hide here to engage in this kind of business!"

As the black beard said, a shock wave rushed towards the old man with the scarred face!
