Chapter 1343: Little Bun
The situation regarding other contractors has become clearer. The fourth-rank contractors had assignments related to the Sabaodi Archipelago. They most likely shouldn't have eliminated the Heavenly Dragons. This kind of task could only be given to someone who was about to advance to the next rank, and this task also had to be a double one.
When Su Xiao eliminated the contractor at the Dress Rose, he received half of his pirate reputation for eliminating him. If this mechanism did not disappear, then the situation on 21 islands was quite understandable.
Su Xiao got up and left the restaurant. Although he was very interested in the 21 islands, right now he needed to come to a more important place, the 1 island.
This was where the auction would be held and it was during this auction that Su Xiao planned to kill the Heavenly Dragons.
A large number of pirate ships were anchored in front of the port on island 1. In addition to pirates, you could also see bounty hunters, sometimes even slave hunters. The latter usually looked for a suitable target and made it a slave, then sold it at auction.
Su Xiao climbed a tree on 1 island that was a hundred meters high, then looked down through the telescope.
There were at least several dozen auction houses on this island. The biggest one obviously belonged to the Quixote family.
No auction house could compete with the Quixote family's auction house.
The Sabaodi Archipelago was located in the first half of the Grand Line. Pirates with a bounty of 100 million belli per head were a rarity here and a very serious combat unit.
In the New World, pirates with a 100 million belly reward could only be officers of different factions.
If the difficulty level of the New World was at the level of "Purgatory", then the difficulty level of the first half of the Grand Line was approximately at the level of "Difficult". Actively traveling on the Grand Line for half a year it was quite possible not to meet even one pirate with a bounty for his head of about 100 million belly.
The New World was a much more dangerous place. It was quite common to encounter a pirate with a 200-300 million belly bounty in the waters of the New World.
Not to mention Doflamingo, even if his subordinate, Pica, came here, except for the Seven Warriors of the Sea and the Marine Watch, basically no one would dare to provoke Pica.
Because of this, the Quixote family's auction house had practically cut off the oxygen supply to the other auction houses. They only dared to finish eating for the Quixote family. They didn't try to compete with the Quixote family at all, as they weren't even close to equal, and once the Quixote family sold something for a certain price, no one else could sell below that price.
After looking at the structure of the Quixote family's auction house, Su Xiao realized that it had virtually no external protection, and the guards in front of the doors were basically just scenery that hadn't fought anyone for a long time.
— Very good, " Su Xiao muttered and jumped down.
After bouncing a couple of times off the soap bubbles, he landed on the ground.
Right now, he couldn't kill the Sky Dragons, and not just because of the time frame. Among other things, he had to find out what was happening on the 21 islands.
And since he also needed to gain more reputation, he didn't mind joining in on the fun.
The duck had already surpassed Su Xiao in terms of reputation and was currently ranked first. Duck ranked first, Kutu ranked second, and Su Xiao ranked third. Since a pirate's reputation couldn't be obtained by killing ordinary pirates, the difference between them wasn't that big.
Getting into a car rented by Bubtni, the man and the dog went to 21 islands.
----
Sabaodi Archipelago, 21 islands, inside the bar.
The strong smell of blood filled the bar. A man was lying on the ground. His throat was cut, but he wasn't dead yet, and his body twitched unconsciously from time to time.
Several men and women were standing or sitting in the bar, some cleaning their weapons, and some choosing a drink from the wine shelves.
— Whose turn is it this time? The short-haired girl asked. It was clear from her clothes that she was a contractor.
— Mine, " a hoarse voice said, and a skinny, short man raised his hand.
— Scorpio, don't be too greedy. Last time, you were the one who took that woman, " the short-haired girl said and glanced at the short and thin man.
She was disgusted that he was taking advantage of the situation.
— This... I want to, " a faint voice said. Upon hearing it, anyone would be able to tell that the speaker was unsure of himself.
— Little Bun's turn? The short-haired girl asked as she looked around at the people around her.
The man who was picking out a drink at the wine rack nodded.
— After saying that, the short-haired girl sat down and crossed her legs, and the gold earring in her left ear began to sway.
— Fine, fine, " Little bun immediately walked over to the dying man, holding her milky white staff in both hands.
Just as she was about to hit him with her staff, the short-haired girl suddenly called out to her and said — " Are you going to smash his head in?" Switch to sharp weapons.
— Ah-ah-ah...
History was silent on how Little Bun even got the fourth rank.
Every time she had to kill someone, she was a little nervous.
— Our healer was very lucky. Her companions dragged her all the way up to the fourth rank. To be honest, I'm worried about your nickname, "Little Bun". Your face isn't round. Does another part of your body resemble a small bun? If so, I really like you, " Scorpio said, and gave a strange laugh.
Hearing this, Little Bun pursed her thin lips.
— I can survive. I'm a rank four contractor, " Little Bun muttered to herself a few times, took a deep breath, and her gaze immediately became firm.
Putting away her staff, she took out her dagger, however, Little Bun didn't notice the greedy eyes around her.
They all belonged to the hungry wolves who had reached the fourth rank alone.
— Woof.
The sudden barking of a dog caused the entire bar to immediately become so quiet that you could have heard a pin drop.
— Little bun, what is it? A dog ran in and you didn't even warn us? Do your skills exist just for show? The short-haired girl snarled and narrowed her eyes.
Not to mention ordinary people, even an experienced assassin would immediately turn around and run away after seeing her look.
— I, I — " Little bun stared at Bubtney blankly. She was a healer and a member of a medium-sized guild. Even though she had a soft personality, she definitely wouldn't make such a stupid mistake.
She didn't sense Bubtney's presence at all.
— Scorpio, get rid of this dog, if you want, make yourself some soup out of it.
— That's a great suggestion, " Scorpio said, and started walking slowly toward Bubtney.
Bubtny was a fairly large dog, and he also looked like a husky. There were countless strange creatures in this world, so no one saw anything special about this slightly unusual dog.
Squatting down, Bubtney looked at the man walking towards him and rolled his eyes, clearly wanting to say ," You better not approach me, my master has a bad temper».
— Ah? That dog's eyes... " the Scorpion muttered and stopped.
— Are you worried about that dog's eyes? If she was a contractor's summoned creature, she wouldn't be here. And, Little Bun, you have to kill this guy faster. He's about to bleed to death. If he pulls back, don't tell me later that we left you out and didn't fulfill our part of the contract, " the girl with the short hair said. She was clearly a little impatient.
Scorpion shrugged, pulled a dagger from his belt, and started toward Bubtney.
— If you see people in your next life, don't forget to start running away from them right away — " Scorpio said as he tossed the dagger up.
At that moment, Bubtney raised his front paws and made a gun gesture with them.
Seeing Bubtney's unusual stance, Scorpio was stunned.
— Poof, " a strange sound suddenly came out of Bubtney's mouth and he waved his paw towards the Scorpion.
The wooden wall of the bar immediately shattered.
With a crunch, the Scorpion's upper body broke apart.
Blood and minced meat immediately covered Little Bun's face.
*Boom!*
The Scorpion's lower half slammed into the bar.
