Chapter 45: The Dwarf Tribe's Vika

  Hobodi had nothing more to say to this fortune-telling guy, and the situation in the auction house was basically under his control. He walked onto the stage, picked up the box containing the Devil Fruit and the iron cage, these two things, without a doubt, were the most valuable items in this auction house.

  Hobbitti leaned in close to the iron cage and looked inside, clicking his tongue in wonder: "Is this really a small person?"

  In the iron cage, a small figure of Vika, dressed in a light blue railway uniform and wearing a high-crowned blue cap, listlessly gazed at this "adult" with black circles under her eyes.

  She heard all the fighting and all the dialogue just now.

  This shameless, bare-bottomed human actually dares to challenge that terrifying Doflamingo. As the leader of the Donquixote clan's scouting party, she feels it necessary to take action now.

  "That's right, I'm Veka of the Dongta tribe! Human, you just said you wanted to challenge the King of Dres Rosa? If that's so, if you're willing to take me back to "Glinbit", my Dongta tribe will definitely respond to your challenge."

  "Huh? No need to respond, I'm not interested for now. But can you work with iron?" Hobodi asked the small person in the cage.

  "Huh?" Vika was taken aback, with question marks constantly popping up in her mind.

  Ruo Rou couldn't help but speak up from behind Hobodi, her face full of black lines: "Hey!"

  "What's your answer?"

  Vika's silly little face didn't know how to respond, but still shook her head honestly: "Vika can't forge iron, but Grandpa Tolkien of the Dongda tribe knows how to make weapons."

  "Really?"

  "Hey, that's enough! Can't you forget about the divine artifact of 'Poseidon, God of the Sea' already?" Luo couldn't help but exclaim.

  "Alright, I've agreed with you, but it may take a little while." Hobodi opened the cage.

  Vika immediately jumped for joy onto Hobbit's shoulder: "Thank you so much, Vika, big human with a shiny butt!"

  "Is he naked?" Hawkins wondered, looking down at Hopper's lower body.

  "That word is not to be spoken again. Veeka, you remember, before going to your Greenbit, you can't leave privately, you must bring me to see Torukin in your tribe, do you know? Before that, just let your Dongtaidong tribe gather their forces and get ready. Does your Dongtaidong tribe have a phone number?"

  Vika nodded her little head vigorously: "Yes!"

  "After things are settled here, you can use the phone bug to report your safety to your Doudou tribe... and also let me communicate with the Tolkien elder of your Doudou tribe..."

  Behind Holopody, Luo couldn't help but sigh. This man named Harald was flawless in every aspect - strategy, strength, and wit were all top-notch. But when it came to divine artifacts, he instantly became a complete idiot with an IQ of 0.

  "That's enough, Harald. You've taken the handcuffs off and gone outside, haven't you? What's the situation like out there now?" Luo walked to the front of the stage and glanced at Drecker.

  Hobodi put away the thoughts in his mind and returned to the topic, also glancing at Drake: "The situation is not good, most people on the island know that something has gone wrong here, but because of the orders from those nobles and underground bosses, their guards and subordinates do not dare to come in. Of course, they don't dare to come in because the navy is guarding the entrance."

  "Naval?" So everyone's gaze focused on Drake.

  "Let's get rid of this guy and let the naval forces and other islanders fight each other, then we can successfully escape."

  "It's hard to say, although I don't understand why the Navy is guarding the entrance and not coming in. However, since it's for Drake, killing him might be counterproductive..." Hawkins shook his head.

  Luo thought for a moment, nodded and said: "Bazile's words are reasonable." Then Luo walked to Drake's front and continued: "Let's make a deal, Drake!"

  "Deal?"

  "We just need a witness in this auction room to spread our evil deeds." Luo's face showed a contemptuous smile: "As the price, we will let you go and arrange for your navy to suppress those people on the island. After we leave the island, it's up to you what happens to the island afterwards. Is that okay?"

  The last word was from Luo to Hoboldy, without a doubt, this son of a bitch is the biggest winner here.

  "Hopkins grunted: 'I have no objection.'"

  "What are you people talking about? I'm a naval officer. And I didn't plan on trading with this bunch of pirates!" Drake said discontentedly.

  "The Navy wouldn't trust you either, Drake? Have you forgotten Monet's words? What happened to you here is what the Navy would have liked to see. Although I don't know what position you hold in the Navy, you must know a lot of secrets?"

  Hobodi's words caused Drake's pupils to contract instinctively, and his face quickly darkened: "I know, I agree!"

  "Wise decision. And Drake, when you go back, help us spread the word that we set sail with our fists to take down the Seven Warlords of the Sea and kick the Four Emperors, overthrowing the World Government's Marine Headquarters along the way!"

  "Hey, isn't this blowing things out of proportion?" A bead of sweat seeped out on Luo's face.

  Hawkins waved his hand: "I don't care. Once at sea, these people are all opponents!"

  Drake didn't know what to say, he was speechless.

  "Silence means consent, I suppose!" Hobodi walked up to Drake and squatted down to unlock his handcuffs. The latter stood up, shook his hands, and then Hobodi said: "Now, go quell the riot!"

  Drake looked deeply at the three people in the field, and his intuition made him feel that he would meet these three people again in the future, and also... the Navy Headquarters!

  Silently he walked towards the auction hall exit, Drake's face under the mask was gloomy, nobody knew what he was thinking.

  "Warring States General, if it wasn't you who leaked the secret, then there must be a naval officer at a high level who wants to put me to death. I know too much, don't I? Hmph!"

  After Drake left, Luo aimed at Monet who was handcuffed: "What's the point of keeping this kind of woman? The cadres of the Don Quixote family will never leak intelligence, she has no value. Harald's home..." Luo cast a puzzled glance at Hopper.

  "What she said to you is irrelevant. I kept her because I wanted to hire her as my secretary." Hobodi squatted down and picked up Monet, who was lying on the ground, from the waist.

  "What a joke! Do you want me to expose everything I do with you every day under the eyes of this woman? Harald, if you want to keep her as a hidden danger, then our alliance is not worth mentioning." Luo said, unable to bear it.

  Hoboldi was unmoved, his eyes locked onto Monet's: "Look, everyone doesn't need you, I'm the only one who values you, what are you still pretending to be with me?"

  He puffed out a breath and said, "She's no longer connected to the Don Quixote family. She was abandoned and now surely thinks she's dead! So you don't have to worry about our affair being exposed. By the way, I've been in contact with Dorfranco through phone."

  "What?!"

  "You'd better thank me properly, because Doflamingo made a deal with me to hand you over while you were unconscious for 5 billion Berries. But I didn't do that. From today on, you owe me 5 billion!"

  Luo snorted in disdain. He didn't believe that Fernando would promise 5 billion Beris, but it was possible that the matter he handed over was true.

  "This guy, the things he's done today, it seems that for now we can rule out the possibility of him being a mole from the Don Quixote family." As she thought this, Luo revealed a smile.

  "So you go first to the harbor and bring the boat back, I'll go find those fifty survivors from Sniper Island."

  Luo's smile suddenly turned gloomy: "I know my own judgment, don't order me."

  "What's your plan, Hawkins?"

  "I plan to return to Rubek Island, today's loss still proves that my training is not enough." Hawkins said, looking at Hopody, and the two still had a grudge.

  "You saved our lives today, and avenged the death of my subordinate. Let's settle this score when we get to the sea!"

  "Can you find me?"

  Hawkins' eyebrows twitched and he turned away without looking back.
