"Damn it! I didn't spot them! Let's go! Hurry up and follow them. Block them before they enter Island No. 30. These two are top - notch goods. They must be worth a fortune."
The leading boss leered at the two of them.
"Boss, why do I feel like that guy looks so familiar? I seem to have seen him in the newspaper not long ago."
One of the group couldn't help but speak out as he looked at Charlotte's familiar face.
"Seen in the newspaper! Is he a star or a noble?"
The boss was taken aback and looked at this subordinate and asked.
"Not sure! But I definitely saw him in the newspaper. I just took a quick glance and didn't look closely."
The subordinate scratched his head and replied uncertainly.
Thwack!
The boss slapped this subordinate on the head.
"If you can't recall, just forget about it. They're about to leave. Even if they're nobles, I'm determined to get them. That woman, I'll have my fun with her and then sell her."
The boss followed them with a lecherous smile on his face.
Meanwhile, quite a few other people also stealthily followed behind.
And all of this was within Charlotte's [Observation Haki].
Charlotte decided to let Elena see the evil in this world.
"Stop!"
Just as Elena and Charlotte were strolling on a path at the edge of the island, lo and behold, seven or eight big guys sprang out from the roadside, each armed with weapons, ropes, and net ropes.
Charlotte raised his eyebrows. He didn't plan to act right away. He had to let Elena experience the evil in the world.
"Boss! No good! It's the Biao Dog gang. They're trying to steal our prey!"
Those still hiding in the dark got anxious upon seeing this. They had finally found a high - quality prey and couldn't let their rivals snatch it away.
"Stop!"
Just as the subordinates were getting anxious, two more groups of people jumped out and surrounded Charlotte and Elena.
But their attention wasn't on Elena and Charlotte. Instead, they were warily eyeing the first group of rivals who had jumped out.
Seeing that three groups of people had already emerged, those who had their eyes on Charlotte and Elena couldn't stay calm any longer.
"Stop it all! I spotted these two first."
Another four or five groups of people jumped out.
Then they surrounded Charlotte and Elena tightly.
Charlotte took a quick look. Goodness, just on Island No. 1, there were eight groups of human traffickers. The human - trafficking business in the Sabaody Archipelago is really booming!
There were so many people.
When Elena saw the ferocious - looking people surrounding them, she couldn't help but shrink behind Charlotte.
This really surprised Charlotte.
He thought Elena was fearless, but it turned out she also had things to be afraid of.
At this time, Charlotte naturally stood in front of Elena without hesitation.
"Biao Dog! These two have been targeted by our Sam's slave - hunting team for a long time. Be sensible and get out of here quickly."
A big guy in a suit holding a short - gun looked at Biao Dog disdainfully and said.
"Heh heh! So it's you, Sam! Just because you saw them doesn't mean we can't get involved. I'd say we were the first ones out. Don't act so high - and - mighty. And you guys, get lost as far as you can. I, Biao Dog, have had my eye on these two for a long time. If you don't want to die, then scram."
Biao Dog looked at everyone disdainfully.
Even if there were forty or fifty people around, he, Biao Dog, didn't feel the least bit panicked!
Because there was something extraordinary behind him.
"Boss is awesome!"
"Boss, fight them! The winner gets these two slaves!"
A group of his minions shouted behind Biao Dog, trying to boost their boss's morale.
After listening for a while, Biao Dog waved his hand, signaling his underlings to be quiet.
"It's not too late to leave now!"
Biao Dog looked at the seven groups of his peers around him with disdain on his face.
These seven groups of people looked at each other, but none of them really took action!
"Damn it! Who do you think you are, Biao Dog! Don't think that just because you're backed by the auction house, you can rule the roost on Island No. 1. I, Karasu, am not afraid of you! If you want to fight, then fight! Who's afraid of who!"
Karasu, the leader of one of the groups, waved the watermelon knife in his hand and said arrogantly.
"Yeah, yeah!"
"Boss, let's fight them!"
"Damn it! I haven't seen blood for days. Let me see some blood today!"
The minions behind Karasu also shouted one after another. For a moment, the two groups started cursing at each other.
Charlotte and Elena, on the other hand, were ignored by these people.
This surprised Charlotte as he looked at these groups of people. So even the slave - hunting teams are involved in what's called 'involution'!
Charlotte couldn't help but sigh about the declining morals in the pirate world.
Elena was initially hiding behind Charlotte in panic. But as these groups of people started shouting and cursing, she summoned up her courage and quietly peeked.
Then she watched these people cursing each other with great interest.
These scenes were something she had never seen in the previous twenty years of her life, and she was completely engrossed.
Seeing Elena watching all this with great interest, Charlotte secretly thought something was wrong.
Why aren't these people following the rules!
This made Charlotte feel extremely uncomfortable, as if he had eaten something disgusting.
"Damn it! Try yelling again!"
"Damn it! So what if I yelled! Woof! Woof!"
"You're being given face!"
"Here's a taste of my wrath!"
Watching more than forty people surround them and curse at each other, Charlotte's anger kept building up.
"Shut up, all of you!"
A menacing aura emanated from Charlotte, impacting everything around.
This wasn't Conqueror's Haki, but simply pure killing intent.
Elena, who was watching the show behind him, was startled by Charlotte's roar.
Looking at the extremely menacing Charlotte in front of her, she felt a sense of strangeness.
These seven groups of people were also startled by Charlotte.
Their faces all turned pale.
After a while, seeing that Charlotte didn't say anything more, they calmed down.
They couldn't help but scold in their hearts.
They were actually scared by a pretty - boy.
"Pretty boy, try saying another word!"
Karasu, who had nowhere to vent his anger, pointed at Charlotte arrogantly.
But as soon as he stretched out his hand, a green light flashed.
Karasu felt a chill on his wrist, and then a sharp pain hit him.
"Ah~!"
"Ah~! My hand! My hand!"
Karasu looked at the severed hand on the ground and let out a pained cry.
And a green long sword appeared in Charlotte's hand.
Everyone was shocked by this unexpected change. When did he take out the sword in his hand?
But after the shock, these people were all attracted by Charlotte's Seven - Star Sword.
The green sword body was engraved with runes. A strange and demonic qi permeated the whole place.
Everyone didn't even look at Karasu's severed hand, but stared at the Seven - Star Sword in Charlotte's hand with a greedy look on their faces.
This sword was obviously a famous blade, and it must be extremely valuable. It could earn far more than selling two slaves.
You know, even the lowest - grade famous blades cost tens of millions of berries. Those well - known famous blades are even worth hundreds of millions of berries or are priceless.
"Kid! As long as you hand over the sword you're holding, I'll spare you and guarantee your life safety."
The Biao Dog stared at the Seven - Star Sword in Charlotte's hand with a greedy look on his face and said.
