Human Auctioning House



The Human Auctioning House is a centre of slave trade and a biding house for selling living beings as slaves.

It is located on Shabondy Archipelago's Grove 1. It is managed by people in clown suits and a man named Disco.

Peterman brought Camie here to be auctioned off as a slave.

Silvers Rayleigh is also seen here in a cage with a giant to be auctioned off as a slave.

It is the final destination of Saint Roswald, Saint Shalulia and Saint Charloss.

Interestingly, there have been symbols visible on the walls on the inside of the Auction House not unlike those seen with Donquixote Doflamingo and Bellamy. (A smiley-face with a cancel symbol over it.) - this has been recently confirmed in chapter 504, with Disco calling Doflamingo for help (without sucess), calling him the shop's owner.

Doflamingo told Disco that he could have the shop, as he is not interested in the slave trade anymore, but in "smiles".

Curently, it has been surounded by Marines, while it has been under the control of the Strawhat, Heart and Kidd pirates.

Trivia

 * Because slavery is officialy illegal, it is officially referred to by the Marines as the "Public Employment Security Office".
 * When Oda initially depicted the symbol of the Human Auction House in Chapter 501, the lower half of the face appeared to be one-row with teeth-like indentations. By Chapter 504, the symbol appears closer to that of Donquixote Doflamingo, with a two-row smiling lower jaw similar used as the symbol of this Shichibukai.
