"Pay with your life!"
Before he finished speaking, Cheng Xiaoyu's figure vanished from the spot.
When he reappeared, he was already standing in front of Charloss Sei, one hand gripping his throat, lifting him high into the air.
"Ugh… ugh…"
Charloss Sei struggled desperately, but he was held as if by iron pincers, unable to move.
He widened his eyes in terror, snot bubbles inflating and deflating with each breath, his gaze filled with fear and despair.
Just then, a commotion came from the auction house entrance.
Luffy, Zoro, and others, riding on flying fish, burst into the auction house with a menacing aura.
However, what greeted their eyes was an incredibly bloody scene.
Sharp Shadow Spikes shot up like bamboo shoots after a rain, and the guards fell into pools of blood before they could even scream.
It was Cheng Xiaoyu who launched the Shadow Spikes attack. Seeing Luffy and the others arrive, he directly used Shadow Spikes to shatter the fish tank restraining Kaimi.
Seeing this, the Straw Hat immediately rescued Kaimi.
Luffy looked at Cheng Xiaoyu's back hidden beneath the cloak, feeling a sense of familiarity but unable to recall where he had seen him before.
"Hey! Who… who is he?" Luffy asked curiously.
"Don't worry about that! We have to leave here quickly! An Admiral will arrive soon, and if we don't go now, it'll be too late!"
Nami grabbed Luffy and ran out with the Straw Hat.
At this moment, the entire auction house was in utter chaos, with screams and cries rising and falling.
The terrified audience scattered and fled, trying to escape this living hell.
"Trying to run? None of you will leave today!" Cheng Xiaoyu's cold voice echoed through the auction house.
"It's precisely because scum control this world that you all became scum! You all deserve to die!"
What kind of good people would attend such auctions?
Aren't they all just a bunch of scumbags interested in buying and selling slaves?!
So Cheng Xiaoyu decided to directly eliminate everyone in the auction house!
"Come out!"
In an instant, Shadow Soldiers swarmed out, blocking all exits.
"Kill them all! Leave no one!"
Although these Shadow Soldiers were not as strong as official crew members, for these weak noble bodies, it was a dimension-reducing strike!
Soon, the scene turned into a purgatory!
A few minutes later, only a few people were still alive in the entire auction house, besides Charloss Sei, there were two other Celestial Dragons.
The male was named Rosward Sei, and the female was named Shalulia Palace; these two were father and daughter.
They were already scared silly, sitting motionless, trembling all over.
"Ma… Marine Admiral! Come quickly! Hurry! Be quick!"
Shalulia Palace tremblingly dialed the Den Den Mushi, her voice filled with fear.
Cheng Xiaoyu did not stop them, because that was the effect he wanted.
Admiral?
Heh heh, by the time they get here, you'll all be dead!
Cheng Xiaoyu slightly hooked his finger, and the chilling shadows coiled around the three trembling Celestial Dragons like venomous snakes!
These three useless beings, for the first time in their lives, felt the threat of death!
Charloss Sei cried out, "No, don't kill me! The mermaid is yours! All yours!"
Shalulia Palace shrieked, putting on a brave front, "Lowly commoner, if you dare touch us, the Admiral will absolutely not let you go! You're dead!"
"Hahahahaha… it's the same as dying if I stop now! Since I'm going to die anyway, why not take you all down with me?"
Rosward Sei's entire waxy face trembled: "You, if you kneel down and admit your mistake now, this Sei, this Sei can consider pleading for you!"
"No need, I just want you all to die." Cheng Xiaoyu said coldly.
"Oh, by the way, I heard you Celestial Dragons disdain eating Devil Fruit?"
Shalulia Palace, who had been full of terror, now showed a hint of disdain, "That kind of garbage is only used to feed slaves!"
Cheng Xiaoyu: "Good, good, good… Then today, I'll let you all die by the power of a Devil Fruit!"
With a few crisp "snap" sounds, their glass masks were instantly crushed by the shadows!
The bursting glass shards pierced their faces, and the three screamed in pain!
After that!
Shadows coiled around their necks like venomous snakes, hoisting them high up to the ceiling of the auction house stage!
"Crack!"
The sound of breaking necks was clearly audible.
The three Celestial Dragons, two males and one female, were all hanged in mid-air!
Killing one is still killing, killing three is still killing.
Might as well kill them all!
At this moment, Kid and Law, who had witnessed this brutal scene, also got up and prepared to leave.
The situation had completely exceeded their expectations; this was no longer a simple incident of harming Celestial Dragons…
It was a thorough massacre targeting Celestial Dragons!
If they stayed here, they might very well be mistakenly killed by the arriving Admiral.
"This person… must be crazy…"
Law murmured, then turned and left.
Kid, however, stared intently at Cheng Xiaoyu beneath the cloak, complex light flickering in his eyes.
"Someone who can use this kind of Devil Fruit ability to control shadows, it must be Cheng Xiaoyu of the Shadow Pirates…"
"No wonder he has the highest bounty among the Twelve Supernovas, he really has guts!"
The original Eleven Supernovas became twelve due to Cheng Xiaoyu's appearance.
After Cheng Xiaoyu finished all this, Rayleigh, who was waiting backstage to be auctioned, slowly walked out.
"It seems my plan was completely ruined, I originally wanted to rob my buyer, hahahahahaha…" Rayleigh said with a laugh.
Cheng Xiaoyu ignored this Pirate King's first mate, Rayleigh.
This old man only cares about connections, not people.
"Old man, if you don't want to be implicated, leave here quickly." Cheng Xiaoyu said with a cold tone.
Rayleigh shrugged, "Young man, don't be so hot-headed. However, you killed a Celestial Dragon, an Admiral will arrive very soon, so you'd better pray for yourself."
"Nonsense, are you saying you can help me?"
Cheng Xiaoyu's mouth twitched, and he retorted.
"You're so powerful, you don't need my help anyway…"
Rayleigh smiled slightly and disappeared from the auction house.
"Then why did you even say anything…" Cheng Xiaoyu muttered.
Indeed, Straw Hat Luffy was Rayleigh's main focus for assistance.
Everyone else, to Rayleigh, was just a passerby, unimportant.
Someone like Cheng Xiaoyu, with no background, still had to rely on himself.
Cheng Xiaoyu kicked aside the obstacles in his way, swaggered over, dragged a chair, and plunked himself down in the center of the auction stage.
The three Celestial Dragon corpses dangled before him, swaying back and forth.
It shouldn't be long before an Admiral arrives.
And, very likely.
More than one!
…
Marineford, Marineford.
Buruburuburu…
"What?! All three Celestial Dragons at the auction were killed?!" Fleet Admiral Sengoku roared, almost crushing the Den Den Mushi in his hand.
"Yes, Fleet Admiral Sengoku! The culprit is… is Supernova Cheng Xiaoyu!" A trembling voice came from the other end of the Den Den Mushi.
"It's him again! Why is it him again! This bastard, he's absolutely lawless!"
