A few minutes later, it was finally her turn to review. Mu Qingxiao came to a short table. Opposite her sat a dwarf with a slave collar around his neck.
"Brother, you don't look familiar. Is this your first time here? What kind of slave are you here to sell? Our Venice Auction House guarantees that the price is absolutely fair. "
Mu Qingxiao said, "I'm here to sell myself."
As soon as she finished speaking, the surroundings became extremely quiet. Everyone's eyes were focused on Mu Qingxiao, full of complex expressions.
Hearing this, the dwarf was stunned. He glanced at Rayleigh subconsciously, and then looked at Mu Qingxiao calmly. "Tell me, what are your specialties? The more specialties you have, the more practical you are, and the higher the auction price."
Mu Qingxiao didn't know how to answer for a moment. She couldn't say that she was good at 32 kinds of ventriloquism and 72 kinds of changes, right? Or that she was very strong? That wouldn't be too good, right?
"I'm very strong. Yes, I was born with divine strength!" After that, Mu Qingxiao slapped the table in front of her. The solid wooden table suddenly exploded, scaring the dwarf in front of her.
Rayleigh, who was sitting in the shadows, suddenly stopped drinking. He looked up at Mu Qingxiao, his deep eyes full of curiosity.
After coming back to his senses, the dwarf said to the guards beside him, "Why are you still standing there? Go get him a slave collar and lock him with the new slaves. The auction order will be arranged later. "
The two guards didn't refute. Instead, they put the slave collar on Mu Qingxiao as quickly as possible, and finally locked him in a huge cage backstage.
Mu Qingxiao casually found a box and sat on it, carefully looking at Rayleigh opposite her.
Rayleigh also noticed Mu Qingxiao's gaze. He took a sip of wine and smiled kindly. "Little brother, since you have such ability, why don't you do it? Why do you want to sell yourself? "
"Well, I just think it's quite interesting, so I'm here to try."
Rayleigh nodded and did not reply. He sat alone in the shadows, thinking about something.
There was still a while before the auction started. Mu Qingxiao leaned against the wall and closed her eyes. The plot would probably develop according to the script. Luffy would knock out Charles, and Admiral Kizaru would attack.
Thinking of this, Mu Qingxiao had a feeling of restlessness. It was a rare opportunity to be able to speculate his strength after facing Kizaru.
Suddenly, a clear female voice interrupted Mu Qingxiao's thoughts.
"Ah … You baddies, let go of me. It hurts, let go of me!"
Along with the woman's scream came the man's impatient voice, "Hold her down for me, it's really troublesome. If it weren't for the fear of damaging the auction price, let alone a woman, even if you were a mermaid, I would still beat you up!"
Then, two guards, one on the left and one on the right, carried a mermaid who was struggling violently into the cage.
This mermaid had turquoise hair and wore youthful clothes. Her pink scaled tail dragged on the ground, and her eyes were filled with tears. This familiar looking mermaid was Keimi of the Fishmen Island.
Keimi, who was put on a slave collar, stopped struggling. Her brown eyes revealed endless fear. Of course, she knew what was on her neck.
"No! Brother Luffy, Little Hachi, come and save me! "
Looking at the tearful Keimi, Mu Qingxiao did not say anything. Rayleigh, who was in the shadows, heard the words Little Hachi and Luffy. His eyes flashed with a trace of doubt. He took out a jug of wine and took a sip. The corner of his mouth evoked a trace of an inexplicable smile.
At this time, the giant next to Rayleigh woke up from his sleep. He touched his hair in a daze. His hazy eyes looked at the surrounding situation. His eyes suddenly became gloomy.
When he noticed Rayleigh next to him, he could not help but ask, "Old man, why is your aura so terrifying? Who the hell are you? "
Hearing the giant's words, Rayleigh laughed, "Hahahaha … I'm just a sloppy coater. I lost all my money in the casino, so I had to sell myself to pay off my debts."
The giant curled his lips, obviously not believing Rayleigh's words. Then he looked at Mu Qingxiao, closed his eyes, and remained silent.
For a moment, the atmosphere in the cage became a bit silent. Other than the slaves' sobbing, no one spoke.

.....
At this time, Marin Fendor, Lieutenant General Garp's office.
The gray-haired Garp sat on a chair. He did not have a trace of nervousness in the face of the impending war. He held a bag full of shellfish in his hand and drank tea from time to time.
"Pluto Rayleigh, and the kid from the Johnston family?"
The adjutant in front of Garp was about to pour tea. When he heard his words, he quickly answered.
"According to the information from the surrounding spies, the auction house did not discover their identities. They only thought that Pluto was a useless old man. The bounty hunter Mu Qingxiao was not recognized."
Garp couldn't help but laugh when he heard the adjutant's report.
"Hahahaha … Do you want to auction Pluto and the top celestial dragons at the human auction? Let's not talk about the King of Hell for now. Mu Qingxiao is definitely not someone to be trifled with. Don't look at how he has been quiet for two years. This auction is really interesting! "
The adjutant said nervously, "If the two are really the real person, it's incredible. Lieutenant General, do you need to inform Marshal Sengoku?"
"No, I'll deal with this matter. Don't tell anyone, including Sengoku. Tell your men not to talk."
The adjutant picked up the teapot and filled himself with tea, and asked with some doubts, "But, if it's really the real person …"
"It must be the real person. There's no mistake. Rayleigh should have lost all his money in gambling and is ready to sell himself. As for Mu Qingxiao, although I haven't seen him in person, don't forget what happened two years ago and his other identity."
"Don't worry about that kid. I also want to see what the celestial dragons want to do. As for Rayleigh, even if he is a veteran, if he confronts Rayleigh head-on, it is likely to bring unexpected heavy losses to our army. "
"Especially at this time, do you want the Marine to fight with two legendary characters at the same time?"
Hearing this, the adjutant suddenly woke up and thought of the legend of Rayleigh and Yonkō (Four Emperors) Whitebeard, and immediately understood the meaning.
"Yes, Lieutenant General, I promise to deal with this matter personally and will never leak any information."
After the adjutant left the office, Garp put down the teacup in his hand. Although the Marine was not afraid, he didn't want to deal with Rayleigh.
First, it's a friendship for many years, and second, this old friend is no longer a pirate, so let him be a coating craftsman in the Sabaody Archipelago.
