The Legendary Family of One Piece

Chapter 152 Charlotte VS Kozuki Oden

Hibernite Duel Arena!

The towering city walls, the earthen-yellow main building, and the layers of thick, textured stone blocks are reminiscent of the Dressrosa Colosseum.

In the center of the towering, massive square dueling arena, the two stood facing each other.

A gentle breeze blew by, causing the hem of their clothes to flutter in the wind. The two men looked at each other, and a special aura between swordsmen was brewing between them.

"Let's have a good fight, Hibernian Charlotte!"

Kozuki Oden grinned, revealing his large, white teeth, his bold tone revealing his unrestrained and wild personality.

"I'm very pleased to witness the exceptional skills of a dual-wielding master. Come on, Kozuki Oden."

Charlotte spoke with great anticipation. Putting aside everything else, this guy's dual-wielding skills were undeniably formidable.

He can be considered to be in a class of his own among dual-wielding swordsmen in the world of One Piece, with almost no dual-wielding swordsmen who can match him.

Regardless of the outcome of this battle, Charlotte's gains will undoubtedly be immense.

Both sides locked onto each other at the same moment, their fighting spirit boiling, and a world-shaking collision could erupt at any moment.

The air grew increasingly still, and the two men's momentum reached its peak.

Charlotte gripped the Heavenly Cry sword tightly and drew it instantly, while Kozuki Oden's "Enma" and "Ame no Habakiri" also gleamed with a cold light.

In an instant, the two figures transformed into two streaks of light, their sharp blades clashing fiercely as they surged forth.

Clang!

In the center of the ring, the two engaged in fierce combat, maintaining an attack stance against each other.

Charlotte's Heavenly Cry directly blocked Kozuki Oden's double swords that were slashing down from above.

"Buzzing!"

A series of vibrating buzzing sounds emanated continuously, and waves of invisible aura spread wildly, tearing apart the incredibly solid ground of the arena.

In the instant they crossed paths, Xia Luotian cried out as he launched himself upwards, and Kozuki Oden followed up with a rapid backflip, landing several times.

The seemingly ordinary exchange was filled with terrifying danger.

The moment Kozuki Oden landed, his body sprang into the air, his Enma and Ame no Habakiri swords flashing rapidly, creating afterimages.

"Two-Sword Style: Momozono Shirataki"

With a deep, angry roar, Armament Haki covered his arms and twin swords in an instant, while Conqueror's Haki swirled within, unleashing a powerful slash from the twin swords.

The terrifying aura was like that of a raging beast, with an unparalleled and powerful force surging forth.

Charlotte took a half-step back on one leg, and the Heavenly Cry in her hand burst forth with an eerie light, slashing out at high speed.

"One-sword style: horizontal slash!"

His entire body was covered in Armament Haki, and Conqueror's Haki intertwined, emitting bursts of electric arcs. A domineering slash rose into the air.

Over the past few months, Charlotte's entanglement has become increasingly skillful, and his attack power has naturally increased significantly.

"boom!"

With a deafening roar, the two terrifying attacks collided head-on, unleashing a violent explosion, and streaks of intertwined lightning spread out in all directions.

Clang!

The two blades collided, producing a resounding clang, and black arcs of electricity scattered outwards.

The powerful shockwave left a huge crater in the ground, a truly awe-inspiring sight.

Both sides grinned, and the moment their weapons separated, they launched another high-speed attack.

"Jingle bells!"

The air was filled with afterimages of sparks colliding, accompanied by a series of deafening sonic booms.

Armament Haki and Conqueror's Haki intertwined and slashed continuously, creating layers of clearly visible shockwaves.

Whitebeard, who was watching the battle, was also amazed by Charlotte's powerful strength at such a young age.

"Wow, that's incredible!"

Beta was so shocked he couldn't close his mouth. The momentum of each attack from the two was incredibly powerful, making everyone's blood boil.

Lina frowned.

She was very worried about Charlotte's safety. Although it was supposed to be a friendly spar, the intensity of the battle was too terrifying, making her very uneasy.

What if Charlotte gets hurt? Lina quickly adjusted her mindset; she absolutely couldn't cause trouble at a time like this.

Charlotte was amazed.

Regardless of the complexity of Kozuki Oden's character, his strength alone is undeniable.

In particular, the use of the advanced Armament Haki stream from Wano Country, Sakura + Haki Entanglement, is truly astonishing.

Charlotte became increasingly curious about the use of Armament Haki's Stream Sakura.

Kozuki Oden was equally shocked; it was truly unimaginable that someone so young could possess such strength!

Keep in mind that Oden is 29 years old now, while Charlotte is 18, an eleven-year age difference. Charlotte is far from reaching the peak of her physical abilities.

This indicates that the opponent's strength is still growing.

It's incredible that he's this young, and his future is full of promise.

As his thoughts raced, Kozuki Oden moved even more swiftly, leaping up with a swift slash.

"Dual Sword Style: Samurai Demon Great Soul!"

Fiery red energy surged forth, and the twin blades, like two rising fire dragons, slashed across each other.

Charlotte swung her hand backhand, swiftly slashing horizontally and vertically, the blade's energy vibrating.

"One-Sword Style: Ten Cuts!"

The flash of light that appeared in mid-air rapidly expanded, and a cross-shaped slash, imbued with Conqueror's Haki, burst forth.

"boom!"

A violent explosion erupted in the air, the sonic boom impacting all directions and whipping up gusts of wind that made clothes flutter loudly.

Suddenly, a loud shout rang out from Kozuki Oden, "Dual Sword Style: Spear - Oni-like!"

Kozuki Oden crossed his twin swords to the side, and a flash of red light from his Conqueror's Haki appeared, his sword aura resembling that of a demon.

Charlotte was startled, but without hesitation, she stomped her foot and shot into the air to dodge the nimble attack.

"Pfft!"

The arena was sliced ​​in half with a flash of light, leaving a smooth, mirror-like surface.

The slashing part landed diagonally on the ground outside the arena, kicking up a cloud of dust.

As Charlotte soared into the air and roared, her voice was like thunder, and her aura was terrifying.

"One-Sword Style: Overlord Slash!!!"

His figure glided nimbly down from the sky, as fast as lightning. The Heavenly Cry sword beside him flashed with a terrifying blade light, and a domineering aura like electric current wrapped around the blade, exuding an aura of dominance and fierceness.

There seemed to be a subtle distortion in the void.

Kozuki Oden dared not be careless, and instantly crossed his twin swords in front of him, letting out a roar.

"Dual-Sword Style: Peach Blossom Spring Ten Fists!"

Enma and Ame no Habakiri unleashed incredibly fast, intersecting diagonal flying slashes that soared into the sky.

The two figures moved at high speed like two shooting stars, colliding head-on at an angle.

"boom!"

A dazzling light shone brightly, and a deafening explosion swept in all directions. The raging, terrifying shockwaves spread out in concentric circles of light in the air.

The sonic booms were deafening, creating a truly awe-inspiring scene.

At this moment, even Whitebeard couldn't help but sit up straight; the power of that attack was truly astonishing.

After a while, everything quieted down.

Two figures descended rapidly from the air, crashing onto the arena platform with a loud "boom".

Dust billowed, gravel flew everywhere, and a violent coughing fit rang out.

"Ahem... You win."

Charlotte said nonchalantly that the suppression of his advanced Armament Haki, the combination of Sakura and Binding, was terrifying.

This is the truth.

He was increasingly drawn to the Armament Haki Ryuo, and it was fair to say that the destructive power of Ryuo combined with Haki was truly extraordinary.

Although he was at a disadvantage in this sparring match.

Charlotte, however, showed no sign of dejection. She simply lamented how many freaks there were in the One Piece world and that she still needed to train hard!

He is indeed no match for Kozuki Oden right now, but he hopes to have the opportunity to compete with him again in the future.

The outcome will certainly not be the same as it is now.

Kozuki Oden looked at Charlotte with equal seriousness, his tone unusually solemn.

"No, if we were in the same age group, I would lose; I'm not as good as you."

He was equally carefree and without any pretense. In his view, Charlotte had amazing potential and would definitely become a famous figure in the future.

The eighteen-year-old boy's body is still developing and he has not yet reached his physical peak. No one knows where his end will be.

The two exchanged a smile, finding the sparring session quite enjoyable.

"Brothers, prepare for the feast!"

Charlotte shouted.

We need to get ready to have a proper celebration.

This sparring match has given me a deep understanding of both Armament Haki and Conqueror's Haki.

The combined power of their strikes allowed him to see a much farther path ahead.

He believes that he will become stronger and stronger in the future and eventually stand at the top of the world.

At that time, his ultimate life goal of lying down safely will be achieved.

A grand banquet was held.

The Whitebeard Pirates and the Heberfeller Family held an unprecedented grand banquet.

This will undoubtedly be recorded in the history of the Heberfeller family, becoming part of the legendary story of the Heberfeller family.

The burly white-bearded man gulped down Lati wine, a specialty of Lati Island, praising it highly.

The white-bearded man, holding a wine bowl almost the same size as Charlotte's, laughed heartily.

"Gulala! Kid, you'd better bring me a lot more of this wine."

Charlotte looked helpless. This person who loves alcohol so much doesn't care about his health at all!

He sighed as he thought about what happened to Whitebeard later; even such a bold man couldn't withstand the passage of time.

Even the most powerful people will pale in comparison to the passage of time.

"Captain Whitebeard, I think you should drink less alcohol; it's too bad for your health!"

Charlotte said calmly, taking a sip of her drink.

The white-bearded man paused, his crescent-shaped mustache swaying as he chuckled, "Kid, you're really boring!"

He naturally sensed the underlying worry in Charlotte's words, but he wasn't angry at all; in fact, he admired Charlotte.

The atmosphere at the banquet was lively, and although both sides were quite young, they got along very well.

The ever-popular "Pirate Song," accompanied by its lively melody, once again resounded throughout the banquet hall.

They developed a lot of friendship.

Charlotte was delighted to see such a harmonious scene. The world of One Piece is not just about fighting and killing; there are also human relationships involved!

In his view, the future world situation will require some solid and reliable allies to be more stable.

The Whitebeard Pirates are undoubtedly a very good choice for the next few decades and are trustworthy.

It's worth noting that the Whitebeard Pirates later protected numerous islands and countries from the ravages of war.

Unity can be a powerful force; this is the wisdom of our ancestors!

Wishing everyone a happy Lunar New Year's Day: smooth sailing, good fortune, and happiness from the God of Wealth, and may you be loved and cared for day and night.
