As the whole thing played, Alexander wondered if he was supposed to do anything, but he decided that if things got even worse than this and they can't handle, he would step in.
The middle-aged Celestial Dragon, seeing that the guards couldn't do anything. "I see you scum intend... to defy us to the very last...?!" Luffy ignored and just said again. " Camie's not a "thing" you can sell!"
"Call a marine admiral and his battleships! Let us put these scum in their place!" he loudly announced, seeing that nothing worked.
It was now everything went out of control as people started running like they never did before, using all their latent power from all their ancestors to run away from the Human Auctioning House.
The fighting continued, on more and more guards gathered, and it wasn't until the young female Celestial Dragon put the Mermaid, Camie, at gunpoint that the whole hall began to quiet down.
"Now, then fish! Time to die!" everyone was expecting the sound of a gun firing, but that never happened as the female Celestial Dragon just blacked out while she falls heavily on the floor.
A white-haired middle-aged stepped on to the front stage, laughing heartily. "See, what'd I tell you, Giant-kun? The place is total chaos!"
"The auction's over as I have stolen my money... guess it's time to head back to do some more gambling..." Alexander, in the back of the Auction House, heard that voice and instantly knew who that person was.
'He's been here the past two days?'
"You really are one screwed-up old man... so it's money you were after?" the Giant from behind Rayleigh said.
"I was planning on stealing some from whoever bought me too if I was lucky enough to get the chance." Rayleigh replied as he started drinking some alcohol that he had hid in his cloak.
"I mean, take a look at me... I'm just an old man now. Who would want me as a slave?! wahaha!" it was when he finally noticed that everyone was looking at him.
"Hm? What's this? Looks, like everyone's looking at us..."
"What's with the old man and the Giant?! How did they open the locks?! Weren't they meant to be on Auction?! How the hell did they get out of their cages...?!" the guards finally notices that the people on stage.
Hacchin, hearing the voice of Rayleigh, quickly took a look even with his injuries. "R... Rayleigh...!"
"Ohh?! Why, if it isn't Hachi! It is you, right?! It's been a while! What're you doing in a place like this?! And what's with all those wounds?!" He started asking a lot of questions, but with just one look at the mermaid, Camie beside him, he could figure it out on his own.
"Ahhh, no, no... don't bother explaining" as he saw the mermaid trying to explain to him what had taken place.
Looking around, seeing the beaten Celestial Dragon and noticing a special someone trying to hide at the further back of the Auction Hall, he gave a quick smile. "... Hm, hm...."
"So basically... yeah, I see...you sure have got yourself in a fair bit of trouble, eh, Hachi..." looking towards Luffy and the others, he continued. "So you guys saved him, did you...?... Now, then..."
All the guards quickly fell unconscious, and the whole hall got silent except Luffy and the others who didn't understand what just had happened.
"And that Straw Hat... It certainly suits a fearless man like yourself...!"
"I've been wanting to meet you...Monkey D Luffy and I'm not the only one, isn't that right, Alexander?"
"Ehhh!? Alexander?!" Luffy and the others hearing that name coming from Rayleigh's mouth, they quickly started to look around.
They didn't have to look for long as Alexander showed himself. "Hello, guys! Long time no see!"
While the attention was on Alexander, Rayleigh walked up to Camie and grabbed her slave collar and removed it, and quickly threw it away. "There, now it's off!"
Luffy and the others quickly turned towards the stage again, hearing that explosion thinking that something might have happened to Camie. "Eh?! You just removed it? Just like that? What if she had exploded?" Chopper quickly said towards Rayleigh.
"But it didn't happen!"
Alexander just walked up to Luffy and the others as they already knew he was there.
Rayleigh, looking up towards the back row of the Auction Hall towards the Supernovas. "Oh, I'm sorry, you guys... so you're pirates hanging around to watch, eh...? And if you just took that blast without any trouble... I guess you're not just amateurs, either."
The man with the weird-looking hat and his Panda crewmate open his mouth. "...to think we'd run into a man like him... in a place like this..."
The man with that had been standing next to Alexander with that weird black long coat. "... "Dark King" Silvers Rayleigh...!! Ain't no mistaking him... What's a legend like him doing here...?"
Rayleigh, hearing them, just said. "Here on this island, I just go by... "Coating Engineer Ray-san"... I wouldn't go throwing that name around too much. I'm an old man now... I'd rather live a peaceful life." as he walked down to Hacchin.
"...you're not going to die on me, right?... Hachi. You always used to be so careful about wandering around on this island..." He said as he assessed his injurious that Chopper had taken care of and bandaged up.
"Nyu~ I'm sorry...!"
Rayleigh turned towards Luffy and the others and said with sincerity. "Thank you, all of you. You saved a dear friend of mine."
"So, Ossan, what was all that about wanting to meet me...?" Luffy said
"Mmm... Let's talk about that later, right, Alexander?" He turned towards Alexander.
"Yea!" Alexander awkwardly said as he might have told Rayleigh a few things and vouching for Straw Hat. Even if Rayleigh already might have plans from the beginning.
"First, we have to worry about getting out of here..."
"They have the place completely surrounded, Captain Kidd." a big man with stitches all over his neck and on his face said.
A loud voice came from outside the Auction House. "Criminals, we suggest you hurry up and release Rosward and his family immediately!"
"An Admiral will be here any minute! So you'd be best off surrendering yourselves right away! There's no telling what'll happen if you don't!! Damn rookies!!"
