I'm in One Piece, and I'm Luffy's childhood friend.

Kama cursed.

Bai Yun smiled back, "Yes, yes, you're the most meticulous, the meticulous one."

"you!!"

Everyone understood the implied meaning behind Bai Yun's words, and even the princess couldn't help but smile.

To maintain what he perceived as a good image, Karma wanted to swear but managed to stop himself.

At that moment, Giles also appeared.

"To all those who are destined to meet me."

"I will take you to the master's room."

"please."

Giles gestured for him to proceed and then led the way.

Kama followed suit, letting the princess go first, and then trying to find a topic to talk about, but the silver-armored guards would not allow him to come within a meter.

Bai Yun and Ace walked at the back.

"Owner..."

Bai Yun murmured.

"What's wrong with Master?"

Ace asked.

"Of course nothing's wrong with Master."

"But Giles is so old, to be his master? That would be..."

"However, there is no rule that you have to be old to be the master."

Bai Yun replied, "You can tell just by looking at him that Giles is no ordinary person, otherwise Karma would be so respectful to him."

To be the master of Giles, the former owner of the Emerald Heart, must have been quite an extraordinary person.

........

Soon, the group arrived at the end of the somewhat dimly lit corridor, where a door stood.

Giles stood up and turned around.

"The master is inside."

"But only four people with the right destiny can enter."

"You two will need to wait here."

"No."

Upon hearing this, the silver-armored guard was the first to object, but Giles squinted, looking into the distance, as if to say that it was no use saying such things.

"It's alright, Uncle David. Besides, there are three other people here."

The princess advised.

Kama immediately offered his obsequious reply, "Yes, don't worry, I will protect the princess."

The silver-armored guard fell silent, thinking to himself that he might not even be able to protect himself.

"Please, both of you, look after Her Highness the Princess."

Compared to Kama, who had guards around him, the silver-armored guard David trusted Ace, who had a bounty of over 5 million, and Bai Yun, who had a bounty of 8000 million, more.

It's not about believing in their character, but in their abilities.

When Kama saw David actually asking Ace and Bai Yun for help, her face instantly felt like it had been slapped hard, and her palm bore the brunt of everything.

"Don't make it sound so scary."

"The auction house owner wouldn't go so far as to kill us, would he?"

"You're right, Mr. Giles."

Bai Yun then passed the question to Giles.

Giles remained silent, gazing into the distance.

"Have we discussed it?"

"What's there to discuss? Can you let the guard in?"

Bai Yun returned home.

"No."

Giles answered crisply.

"Then what's there to discuss?"

Bai Yun replied just as readily.

Giles fell silent again, perhaps unable to answer.

"Please come in."

He then pulled open the door to the room, and light shone out from inside.

It can be seen that the interior is very spacious and bright.

A large red patterned carpet, a crystal chandelier overhead, a table on the carpet, and three leather sofas.

Behind the sofa directly opposite, there was another table, and the Emerald Heart had been placed on a red cotton cushion on the table.

Behind the table, another person sat in a chair with their back to the crowd, seemingly looking at the huge portrait on the wall.

Bai Yun recognized the person in the portrait; he was the first owner of the Jade Heart.

.........

Bai Yun, Ace, Kama, and the princess entered the room.

The person whose head is only partially visible, and whose hair is quite sparse, must be the owner of this life auction house.

The door slammed shut.

The boss's slightly hoarse voice followed.

"Come and sit down."

Bai Yun and Ace took the lead and walked ahead, followed by the princess. Kama didn't want to be left behind.

Bai Yun and Ace sat down on the sofa on the left.

The princess and Kama sat on the sofa on the right.

Kama intentionally or unintentionally tried to get closer to the princess, pushing her to the very edge of the room.

Ace picked up the fruit on the table and started eating it as if he were at home, which made Kama feel a little disdainful.

At this moment, the boss finally turned around and revealed his true colors.

An old man, very old, with a face full of age spots and wrinkles at the corners of his eyes that looked like they could trap a mosquito.

"Hello, fellow travelers."

"I am the owner of this life auction house."

"My name is Changsheng."

"Chang Sheng, what a wonderful name."

Bai Yun returned home.

"Haha, yes, everyone wants to live forever."

Boss Changsheng replied, picked up the Jade Heart, walked out from under the table, came to the sofa in front of him, and placed the Jade Heart on the table.

Kama leaned forward curiously to examine the Emerald Heart.

"It's beautiful."

"I asked the boss of Changsheng."

"Ah, yes, it really is beautiful."

Kama couldn't find any adjectives to describe it.

Bai Yun steered the conversation back on track, "So how do we determine who is the most compatible in the end?"

Chapter 405 What kind of bullshit rules are these?

The four "destined people" chosen by the Heart of Jade.

Bai Yun, Ace, the not-so-bright Kama, and the princess have all arrived at the owner's room of the Life Auction House, who is also the former owner of the Emerald Heart, Boss Changsheng.

........

After Karma's inadequate description of the Emerald Heart, Bai Yun steered the conversation back on track.

"So how do we determine who is the most compatible in the end?"

"Hmph, young man, do you like this gem very much?"

"I can't help but ask," the owner of Changsheng countered.

"I just don't want to waste time."

Bai Yun tapped the sofa handle with his fingers, replying casually.

"That's right."

"Then, it's very simple."

Then, Boss Changsheng picked up the Jade Heart and held it in his palm.

"If you place your hand on the gemstone, the one whose gemstone reacts the most is the one with the strongest affinity."

"Who wants to go first?"
