Chapter 81 The Heavenly Gold Hijacking Incident

Two months passed in the blink of an eye.

Near the Shampoo Islands.

A warship is chasing a pirate ship.

The gunfire rumbled, and each explosion caused a huge splash of water, causing the pirate ship to teeter.

In the eyes of ordinary pirates, warships are truly behemoths.

Although they claim to be fearless men of the sea, nine out of ten turn into cowards when faced with warships.

The remaining one is either a newborn calf who is not afraid of tigers, or he is really a fierce bandit.

But this group of pirates had obviously experienced severe beatings from the Grand Line.

At this time, I also realized that my life was about to end here, and I was making a final struggle.

Some of them paddled desperately, hoping to stay away from the attack range of warships.

Some were holding on to the cables, hoping that the sails would get more wind and escape faster.

Some were so distracted that they jumped directly into the sea, trying to find a chance of survival.

Smoker stood on the warship, looking at the ugly pirates with a calm expression on his face.

Facing the pirates, he felt as cold as a supermarket fish killer.

After watching it for a while, I lit a cigarette out of boredom, inhaled deeply and exhaled slowly, watching the smoke disperse in the wind.

"Chasing pirates like this is really boring..."

Esther, who was standing behind him, replied angrily: "Why don't you go back and I'll keep an eye on this place for you?"

Smoker couldn't help but shudder as he thought of the stacks of files.

"No, Aiman ​​and Vip handle it well, but I'm more suitable for doing these rough jobs..."

"Stop talking, their ship is stuck, I'm on board!!"

After that, he jumped up high and rushed towards the pirate ship.

"I just don't want to work..."

Esther muttered something and raised his hand to signal the bombardment to stop.

Smoker stopped suddenly in mid-air.

[Just in time to try that trick...]

Then, a black shadow appeared above his body, and then he floated in the air as if he had lost weight.

It was a little wobbly at first, but he soon stabilized himself.

This is Smoker's newly developed flying ability.

In fact, Smoker has long coveted the ability to fly.

Initially, he wanted to learn from Tina and use the recoil of the jet to fly.

But dark matter attracts each other and cannot be ejected like fire or smoke.

Then there was Kizaru's ability to fly using light, but that also failed.

He even learned from Doflamingo and used gravity to pull on the clouds in the sky to fly.

But Smoker himself is the source of gravity. Once his ability is activated, not to mention clouds, even a mountain will be pulled over.

In the past few years, he has tried many methods, but he has never been able to achieve his goal.

Until the recent battle with Akainu, Smoker's control over the Dark Fruit further improved.

Finally, it is possible to create a gravitational source above the body to offset gravity and fly quickly.

[It seems that flying by yourself is no problem...]

[When you become more proficient, you may be able to control the flight of objects and other people. ]

[Given time, we might be able to achieve the same effect as Piao Piao Fruit or Gravity Fruit...]

"The Navy is coming!! Shoot!!!"

On the pirate ship, a few die-hards saw Smoker stopped in mid-air and wanted to take the opportunity to fight back.

Smoker came to his senses and easily avoided it with Moon Step.

Because the gravity was offset, Yuebu's speed was more than ten times faster, and he looked like a ghost in the air.

"court death..."

Smoker was so angry that he gave up the idea of ​​being captured alive as a slave and stretched out his hand towards the pirate ship.

"Chaotic gravity!"

A black ball appeared out of thin air above the pirate ship, releasing violent gravity.

The pirate ship is like a toy in front of this gravitational force, easily twisted, crushed, and swallowed up.

After a few seconds, the black ball disappears.

The pirates and pirate ships have disappeared.

Smoker closed his eyes and felt silently.

[They were not found in the dark space. It seems that this trick can only kill enemies, not capture them. ]

[Fortunately, these black balls exist independently from the main body. Even if they are attacked, they will not be fed back to the main body...]

In the distance, Esther and the navy soldiers were stunned.

Esther murmured: "This guy...is getting more and more perverted!"

After wiping out the pirates, Smoker took another long tour before returning at Esther's urging.

I finally understand why Garp keeps wandering around.

Question Garp, understand Garp, become Garp...

On its way back, the warship passed several docks in the Chambord Islands.

All the docks were bustling with people and crowded with ships, many of which were treasure ships belonging to nobles from various countries.

The birth of the slave auction house, the recognition of the nobles, and the high profits were like dropping a bomb into a calm lake, causing an uproar in an instant.

Officially, it's okay. The World Government and the Navy Headquarters have the default attitude.

But the underground world exploded.

It's all just bad money. Why are you so good that you can make money just by standing up? !

It's not like no one has ever thought about slave trading before, but no one has ever done it on such a scale.

Because the slave trade is different from several other underground industries.

The threshold for newspapers, warehousing, shipping, and credit is extremely high, and it is impossible to do it without national-level strength.

But the slave trade is different;

Any pirate or bandit can get involved.

No one expected that Zeon would find another way and directly establish an auction house on the island closest to the holy land of Malinjoia, suddenly occupying the highest-end market!

Countless people were jealous and hurriedly copied it, hoping to get a piece of the pie.

Unexpectedly, as soon as the auction house here was renovated, it was ruthlessly seized by the navy...

The Navy issued a notice prohibiting all forms of slave auctions.

However, in order to serve the Tianlong people, only the slave auction house in Shampoo Islands was retained.

In other words, this family is the only one in the whole world that is legitimate! !

This greatly satisfied the vanity of the Tianlong people.

Even the Five Old Stars are very satisfied. After all, the Tianlong people are more at ease, and they can worry less...

For a moment, the World Government looked at the Navy Headquarters with much gentler eyes, and felt much more happy when reviewing and approving the funding application.

Smoker sat in the office,

Looking at the financial statements given by Zeon, I felt sad.

In just two or three months, thousands of pirate slaves were sold at the auction house.

Although it was not as popular as the first time, the profit exceeded 4 billion Baileys, enough to build another G12 branch.

Not only that, the auction house attracted royal families from all over the world.

The gathering of these wealthy customers has led to the rapid development of commerce in the Chambord Islands, and the prices of real estate and shops have also increased.

The G12 branch stocked up a large number of shops in advance and made a lot of money.

Even officers and soldiers took a big share of the pie...
