Having finally calmed the robin down, Luffy breathed a sigh of relief and casually took out the card from the gashapon capsule.
"Hey, robin, look, this is still your card!"
It was then that Luffy realized that the card he had just received contained a picture of a robin happily singing into a microphone.
The robin was taken aback when it saw the card in Luffy's hand.
"Isn't this the one from the Grand Event Star Collector's Card collection?"
The robin exclaimed in surprise.
The robin's words were overheard by those around him.
"What, the Grand Event Star Collector's Card?"
At this moment, sharp-eyed people around noticed that Luffy was holding a card in his hand.
Volume 1: Chapter 396 The Robin's Autograph
At this moment, the surrounding crowd's gaze also turned directly to Luffy's hands.
Upon seeing the robin card in Luffy's hand, someone couldn't help but exclaim.
"That's Miss Robin's Star of the Festival collectible card!"
The Stars of the Event Collector's Cards is a set of limited-edition Pinocchio celebrity cards designed and published by DreamStar Entertainment™, a subsidiary of Alfred Publishing Group.
Because of their exquisite craftsmanship and scarcity, they have always held a high value in the market.
Even old Audi cards can sell for hundreds of millions of credits on the market.
Not to mention robin's, which are extremely rare and priceless.
There's no way around it, people are all attracted to good looks, like the beautiful and pretty robin and the old, handsome Austrian.
It's obvious which one is more popular.
Not to mention that the robin is a hot celebrity right now, which makes this card even more valuable!
Even among Robin fans, this card is undoubtedly a family heirloom!
"Young man, are you selling this card? I'll give you 50 million credits!"
There are quite a few wealthy people who can come to Pinocchio, and soon someone wanted to buy the card in Ruff's possession.
"Screw you! You think you can buy Miss Robin's card for fifty million? I'll offer a hundred million!"
"One hundred million? You're dreaming! I'll offer five hundred million!"
The news that someone had gotten the Robin's Festival Star card from the environmental gashapon machine quickly spread throughout the entire Edion Park.
Those who wanted to buy it, and those who just wanted to watch the spectacle, all flocked to the area around the golden gashapon machine.
Luffy was also somewhat surprised at this moment. After confirming the situation, Luffy was certain that he had not activated the Luck-Luck Fruit's ability.
So it was all due to my own luck?
After being an African chief for so many years, I finally managed to smuggle myself into Europe!
However, Luffy frowned as he looked at the dense crowd of people who came forward to buy the cards in his hands.
He glanced at the somewhat panicked robin beside him. Although everyone's eyes were now focused on the card in Luffy's hand, it wouldn't be good if anyone noticed the robin standing to the side.
So Luffy replied without hesitation.
"Sorry, I'm not selling this card!"
They thought that Luffy would leave after explaining things so clearly, but in reality, many people still surrounded him.
"Young man, don't say that. We just want the card you have. We're willing to pay any price! Once we leave the dream world, we might not get such a good deal!"
"Really?"
Seeing that Luffy had given in so readily, the man's face lit up with joy.
"Of course, name your price!"
"How about that credit point?"
Luffy put his hand on the man's shoulder and said.
Upon hearing that it only cost one credit, the man was clearly taken aback, then his face lit up with ecstasy.
"I knew you were a smart young man who knew when to back down. So I won't cheat you. Here's 10,000 credits. How generous is that!"
Just as the man was about to take out his money, a phone rang.
"Who is it?"
Picking up the phone, the man yelled at the person on the other end, sounding somewhat annoyed.
However, after hearing what was said on the other end of the phone, the man broke out in a cold sweat.
"What do you mean my company has been seized and all my assets have been frozen?"
At this moment, the man panicked completely. After all, if his past deeds were discovered, he would probably spend the rest of his life in prison.
"Friend, you can't possibly not afford one credit point, can you?"
At this moment, Luffy was also looking at the person in front of him with an amused expression.
"you!"
The man glared at Luffy, but realizing it wasn't the time for such things, he immediately left the dream.
After the person left, Luffy's gaze swept over the others around him.
"Anyone else want to buy? It only costs one credit!"
That's true, but everyone around couldn't help but take a step back.
That person was seen through everything; the moment he tried to buy, his company went bankrupt.
This made the people around them wonder if it was related to the person in front of them.
After all, it's just a card; it's not enough to make them risk their company going bankrupt.
"Since no one's here, let's leave!"
With that, Luffy took the robin's hand and left Edion Park.
Finding the Wine Spirit - Thinking of the Laughing Pig (Part Two) They found a quiet bench and the two of them sat down to rest.
"Luffy, how did you do that just now?"
The robin looked at Luffy with curiosity, filled with wonder at how Luffy had bankrupted that man.
As for that person, the robin didn't feel sorry for him.
Not only was he aggressive, but he even tried to threaten Luffy, and the panicked look on his face when he left clearly showed that he was afraid that some unspeakable secret of his was being discovered.
"If I said I took away that person's luck, could you do that?"
Luffy really got a good dose of luck this time. If that guy hadn't gone in, it would have been incredibly lucky!
"Sigh, is it really possible to do something like this?"
The robin was clearly somewhat skeptical.
"Would Miss Robin like to experience it for herself?"
As he spoke, Luffy stretched out his wicked hand toward the robin.
However, the robin dodged it with a single dodge.
"Then let's forget about it?"
It's better to believe it exists than to believe it doesn't!
At this moment, the robin seemed to remember something and looked at Luffy with a rather resentful expression.
"So when you were using the gashapon machine earlier, you used that ability to get a better reward than me, right?"
"If I said it didn't work the third time, would you believe me?"
Upon hearing this, the robin indeed showed a disbelieving expression.
After all, even Luffy himself wouldn't believe it if he were certain that he hadn't used the Fortune-Fortune Fruit.
"You cheated this time, so logically I should have won!"
"Alright, alright, you win, Lord Robin!"
It was just a joke match to begin with, so Luffy naturally wouldn't take it to heart.
Raise both hands to signify surrender to the robin.
"How about I give you this card?"
As he spoke, Luffy took out the Robin's Star of the Gathering collectible card.
After all, this thing wasn't very valuable to Luffy.
I can talk to real robins face to face, and now we can even go on dates together, so what's the point of this stupid card?
"I already have one, so you should keep it, right?"
The robin shook its head in refusal.
When the Alfred Publishing Group wanted to use his image for publication, they sent him an identical copy as a memento.
"Ah, right!"
Suddenly, the robin took the card from Luffy's hand and then took a lipstick out of his pocket.
She signed her name on the card with lipstick and even playfully drew a heart next to it.
"Sorry, I don't have a pen, so I'll have to use lipstick instead!"
Volume 1: Chapter 397 Firefly: There's a cow!
This is a copy signed by the robin himself, and it's safe to say that there might only be one in the world.
"Now we have no choice but to pass it down as a family heirloom!"
As he took the card from the robin, Luffy jokingly remarked.
"loquacious!"
Even so, the robin was still very happy to see how much Luffy cherished it.
Just then, a gurgling sound came from inside the robin's belly.
This made the robin cover its stomach somewhat embarrassed.
How about we find a place to eat first?
It was almost noon, so it was time to find a place to eat.
But now a problem has arisen for the two of them.
That's how robins get close to restaurants.
After all, going to a restaurant to eat means that the robin has to take off its disguise.
If the robin's identity is discovered, their lunch will undoubtedly be ruined.
Even if you book a private room, there's still a risk of being discovered.
"I wish there was a secluded place for us to have lunch!"
The robin sighed and said with a hint of helplessness.
"I've thought of a place!"
"Really? But Luffy, didn't you just arrive in Pinocchio?"
"This is the Dream-Building Border, right? There shouldn't be many people there, right?"
Upon hearing Ruff's proposed plan, the robin's eyes lit up.
Indeed, apart from the occasional dream architect, there are very few other people there.
"However, people are generally not allowed to enter the Dream Building Border."
