Auntie's request is tantamount to an open robbery. Almost every inch of land in the commercial district of the Chambord Islands is valuable, and it is the only way for pirates to reach the new world.
Pirates are a high-risk profession. Although their income is unstable, their income is very high. Moreover, they have no idea what moderation is.
If you want to open an auction in the Chambord Islands, you can't do it by force alone. None of the four emperors have any apparent property in the Chambord Islands. It's not that they don't want to, it's that they simply can't do it.
The Shampoo Islands are very close to the Navy headquarters and not far from the Red Earth Continent. This is a location within reach of the world's government and navy.
Doflamingo can own property in the Chambord Islands entirely because of his identity as a former Draco. No matter what, Don Quixote is the surname of a Draco. It is unlikely that the world's government and navy will kill them all. Just the Draco.
It won't be allowed.
Big Mom was very smart. She did not directly ask Doflamingo for the auction on the Shampoo Islands, but asked for the net profits. Doflamingo was still the one running the place.
If the 50% profit from the shampoo auction is the limit of Doflamingo's patience, then the profit from the underground world is the basis for his foundation in the new world.
Big Mom opened her mouth loudly, Doflamingo, Red Hair and the others looked as usual. Negotiations are like this. It’s not that Doflamingo will give whatever Big Mom wants. That’s not negotiation, it’s Doflamingo.
Blackmail after being captured alive by the aunt.
"Big Mom, we don't have to talk about the auction and the business in the underground world, but..."
Doflamingo had a smile on his face. He had already thought about what he would pay before negotiating.
"I can give you an artificial animal devil fruit."
As soon as these words came out, Big Mom and Katakuri were both stunned. Why were the two sides fighting for so long? It wasn't because of artificial devil fruits.
But now Doflamingo actually said that he is willing to use artificial Devil Fruit to compensate the Big Mom Pirates for their losses?
"Long-term supply?"
Although Auntie had a vague feeling that something was wrong, she still couldn't suppress the greed in her heart. With the supply of artificial devil fruits, she could create an army of fruit-powered users, which would greatly increase her power.
"It's a permanent supply, blah blah blah blah."
Amidst Doflamingo's laughter, even the red-haired man couldn't figure out what he was thinking. Only one person's face gradually turned cold, and that person was Katakuri.
The aunt looked at Doflamingo with doubts in her eyes, and for a moment she couldn't guess what the other party was up to.
“It is better to teach a man to fish than to teach him to fish.”
Su Xiao spoke. Of course he knew Doflamingo's plan. The two had negotiated privately before coming.
"What fish?"
Although the aunt is hostile to Su Xiao, it is a negotiation now. Even if she is hostile, she cannot turn against her now. Besides, she does not understand what Su Xiao is talking about.
"In layman's terms, it is to provide you with the manufacturing process of artificial animal devil fruits. Compared to others supplying them, wouldn't it be more reliable to produce them yourself?"
Su Xiao blew out a puff of smoke, and both he and Doflamingo looked at the aunt with smiles on their faces.
The aunt's face suddenly turned cold, and she figured out what these two guys were planning.
What is the manufacturing process of artificial animal devil fruits? No kidding, in the entire new world, only Doflamingo can create that damn thing, and many links are indispensable, such as the supply of raw materials to Caesar Coulan.
"Big Mom, I gave you what you want most, you... shouldn't refuse it."
Doflamingo crossed his arms in front of him, still smiling.
"Redhead, please be fair."
Doflamingo turned his finger on the red hair, but the red hair didn't say a word at this time. He would not take the blame for this. He was here to be a notary, not to take the blame.
"You two..."
The aunt clenched her teeth, and an invisible wave of energy spread to the surroundings. This was her domineering aura.
"Big Mom, calm down."
There was a crisp click, and fine cracks appeared on the seat under the red hair. The entire Red Forth was dead silent. Big Mom's violent momentum instantly dissipated, and instead an invisible sense of pressure filled the entire ship.
The ship and the air began to twist irregularly.
Plop, plop...
The sounds of falling to the ground were heard from three nearby ships one after another.
Su Xiao's eyes were lowered, and the energy of the electric arc-shaped green steel shadow surged across his body. The red hair was very domineering, but the domineering power of the other party was not as terrifying as imagined.
After a while, the sense of coercion in the air disappeared, and Su Xiao heard a sound of inhalation coming from behind. It was Pika. After the red-haired man showed his domineering power, he actually forgot to breathe for a short period of time.
"This is our sincerity. As for whether to accept it..."
Doflamingo was not affected by the red hair's domineering attitude, after all, the other party was not targeting him.
"Red hair, are you favoring the Don Quixote family?"
Big Mom didn't pay attention to Doflamingo at all, but stared at the red hair.
"Big Mom, are you ready to let the war continue?"
"snort."
The aunt snorted coldly and stopped talking. The scene became deadlocked again. Doflamingo raised his hand, and Pica behind him immediately handed over a leather document bag with the logo of the World Government on it.
"Big Mom, this is a confidential document I got from the CP department. Destroy it immediately after seeing it."
Doflamingo threw the document bag in his hand to the aunt, and the sullen aunt took the document bag and tore it open.
After more than ten seconds, the aunt's face gradually softened.
"Isn't this a document you forged?"
"Of course not. You can send people to Beihai to verify it."
"Hmm~"
The aunt's attitude changed sharply. Judging from her expression, she seemed to be ready to accept Doflamingo's sincere 'compensation'.
"I want proof that I can see now."
The aunt seemed a little worried. Doflamingo hesitated for a moment and looked at the red hair. The red hair had been wandering the sea for so many years, and of course he immediately understood what Doflamingo meant.
"I am personally not interested in the key details of the negotiations between you."
"Thank you."
After Doflamingo and Pika whispered a few words, Pika walked towards Big Mom and came to Big Mom. Pika whispered something.
"Can that thing be something you are born with? What kind of bloodline do you have?"
The aunt seemed very surprised, as if she was realizing the power of technology for the first time.
"Even if you haven't seen those people with your own eyes, you will have heard about them. According to my investigation, they are not Devil Fruit users in the proper sense."
Doflamingo is now basically certain that Big Mom agrees to this deal.
After thinking about it for two minutes, the aunt finally nodded.
At this moment, Su Xiao whispered to Doflamingo: "Do you have a grudge against that family?"
"Ahem, there was some friction before."
Doflamingo responded in a low voice.
"If they knew about this, they would definitely attack Dressrosa from the North Sea."
What Su Xiao and Doflamingo were talking about was related to a certain family, and that family was named Vinsmoke.
