Reincarnation Paradise Park

Chapter 376: Chapter 77: 1 o’clock

After taking a cold shower, Su Xiao left the exclusive room with Bubute Ni.

He planned to visit the trading market, as he had some items to sell.

[Scepter of Kingship (Green)]

[Special Rope (Green)]

[Devil Fruit (Dark Purple)]

Although the items he needed to sell weren’t many, Su Xiao believed that the Devil Fruit would definitely create a stir in the trading market, as he had never seen any Dark Purple Quality equipment or items for sale there.

Moreover, the Devil Fruit was quite renowned, being one of the most well-known power systems in Reincarnation Paradise.

Chakra from the Naruto World, the Conqueror’s Haki and Devil Fruits from the Pirate World, as well as Nen from the Hunter World.

These four power systems are the most sought after, with Chakra ranking first due to its low acquisition difficulty and high development potential.

Nen is similar, with moderate acquisition difficulty and unknown development potential, but apparently, Nen has the strongest malleability.

The entry difficulty for Devil Fruits and Conqueror’s Haki is high, but they have the advantage of a high starting point and excellent development potential.

Spiritual Pressure from the Bleach World also belongs to the high-level power system, but it’s extremely tricky, with decent potential but significant difficulty in enhancement.

There was once a Contractor who mastered Spiritual Pressure but perished after three Derivative Worlds due to the high cost of enhancing it.

Devil Fruit ranks second to third among the four systems; some say Conqueror’s Haki is stronger, while others claim fruit abilities are superior. Opinions vary.

One thing is certain: Devil Fruits are very expensive, insanely expensive, far more than the training methods for Chakra and Nen.

Upon arriving at the trading market, it was bustling with people as always; most Contractors come here to browse in hopes of finding bargains.

Leasing a stall, Su Xiao sat behind it, pricing the [Scepter of Kingship (Green)] at 8000 Paradise coins and [Special Rope (Green)] at 3000 Paradise coins.

The sales price of [Special Rope (Green)] to Reincarnation Paradise is 2300 Paradise coins, and pricing it at 3000 is already a bargain.

Even so, Su Xiao was uncertain if he could sell it.

Holding the Devil Fruit in his hand, Su Xiao had a headache over how to price it.

100,000 Paradise coins? Too low. 200,000 Paradise coins? Su Xiao shook his head. He wasn’t sure what the right price was.

After much hesitation, Su Xiao priced the Devil Fruit at 1 Paradise coin.

Yes, just 1 Paradise coin, but it couldn’t be directly bought with 1 Paradise coin; it needed to be auctioned.

Once a Contractor places a bid, the stall timer begins countdown; if no other Contractors bid within 10 minutes, the highest bidder wins the Devil Fruit.

This is a free auction mode, usually not used if the item’s value isn’t too high.

If Su Xiao is dissatisfied with the final price within the ten-minute bidding period, he can forcibly close the transaction, causing the Devil Fruit to be deemed unsold, deducting 500 Paradise coins, and returning the Devil Fruit to Su Xiao.

After naming his stall [Premium Stall], Su Xiao’s stand opened.

Bubu Wang curled up at Su Xiao’s feet; this goofball disliked crowded places for some unknown reason.

With the stall open, Su Xiao sat without doing anything else, focusing on genuine buyers this time.

A Contractor wearing bottom-thick glasses, looking frail, walked by the stall, initially glancing sideways without seeing the Devil Fruit clear, continuing on his way.

Within a few steps, the Contractor stopped, quickly retraced his steps, and looked at Su Xiao’s stall.

Seeming to see something unbelievable, the Contractor took off his glasses, rubbed his eyes, put them back on, and finally saw clearly: it was indeed a Devil Fruit on display for just 1 Paradise coin.

Overwhelmed with joy, the Contractor felt he hit the jackpot today with an incredible bargain.

The Contractor immediately bid to ’buy’ the Devil Fruit, but a prompt from Reincarnation Paradise brought him crashing down, face first.

[You have successfully entered the auction, the auction time extension is 10 minutes, the transaction will be successful in 10 minutes, remaining time 9 minutes and 59 seconds...]

The vast disparity was hard for the Contractor to accept, akin to being told he won 5 million in the lottery but had to pay a 5.01 million fee.

The Contractor was frustrated but not without hope; if no one else bid against him...

Realizing this, the Contractor laughed wryly, intoxicated by the fruit’s allure; how could no one else bid?

”Friend, I’ll bid 80,000 Paradise coins for this Devil Fruit, that’s all my assets, though the fruit’s rating is high, it’s a Zoan Devil Fruit, which anyone who’s seen One Piece knows is the weakest fruit.”

The glasses-wearing Contractor made a last-ditch effort.

”I still prefer to auction.”

The glasses-wearing Contractor was speechless, silently raised the bid to 50,000 Paradise coins, clinging to the hope of a bargain.

Bubu Wang glanced at the glasses-wearing Contractor and sighed deeply; this human was greedy and naive.

The temptation of the Devil Fruit was irresistible; within 10 seconds, another Contractor got attracted.

This Contractor stood before the stall, equally ecstatic that the Devil Fruit’s 50,000 Paradise coin price was a steal, planning to bid but realizing it was an auction.

This Contractor was self-aware, choosing not to bid but instead found a good spot to watch the excitement.

”Whoa, Devil Fruit, an auction...”

A Contractor with a loud voice shouted, and hearing the words Devil Fruit, nearby Contractors perked up their ears, heading in haste to the stall.

”Dark Purple Quality? What grade is that? Isn’t Purple Quality the highest for equipment?”

A newbie marveled at the Devil Fruit’s attributes, unable to hide his craving.

Dozens of Contractors gathered around the stall, creating a lively atmosphere.

”It’s my first time seeing a real Devil Fruit, this thing is just absurdly powerful, boosting 33 attributes.”

”Just looking is all we can do; we can’t afford it.”

”Ha~ You weaklings, this fruit belongs to me.”

A Contractor pushed through the crowd to the stall, barely glancing at the Devil Fruit, instead sizing up Su Xiao.

Having observed for some time, the Contractor shook his head, silently raised his bid to 58,000 Paradise coins.

It was just the beginning; Su Xiao noticed some Contractors quickly leaving after seeing the Devil Fruit, likely to notify someone else.

Those were the true buyers; chances were slim for sales among the browsing Contractors.

As more Contractors gathered, the bid for the Devil Fruit began to rise significantly.
