The Legendary Family of One Piece

Chapter 87 Is there a way to have it all?

A white seagull wearing a white cap, a small bag hanging around its neck, and a newspaper pocket slung across its body landed on the railing of the Heberfeller.

Such a distinctive feature undoubtedly makes it the famous Seagull of the Pirate World.

Unexpectedly, Charlotte ran into him here, and intrigued, she naturally asked for a newspaper.

He deftly pulled out the newspaper and put the corresponding amount of money into the newspaper delivery gull's bag.

The gull, with its keen intelligence, watched Charlotte's movements until they were complete, then took to the air.

"Ah-Ah-Ah!"

The cries of seagulls echoed through the azure sky, carrying far and wide.

"Every time I see it, I feel it's incredibly magical!" Charlotte said softly, holding the newspaper in her hand.

Of course, he also felt that these mail-delivery seagulls were having a tough time, working all year round without a break.

He shook his head and looked at the newspaper in his hand; he needed to know something about the outside world.

But the moment Charlotte's gaze fell on the newspaper, her hands trembled uncontrollably, and in her excitement, the newspaper was crumpled in her hands.

"What on earth happened???"

Charlotte's face was grim. She gripped the newspaper tightly in her hand and walked towards the captain's cabin.

"Damn it, what's going on? My bounty has increased by another 30 million!"

Charlotte bared her teeth and brandished her claws in the captain's cabin, her good mood vanishing in an instant.

After calming down, Charlotte reluctantly opened the somewhat crumpled newspaper, checked it several times, and then let out a helpless sigh.

He already knew the cause and effect.

That's what happened on Deldan Island.

exploded!

What puzzled him most was where the mistake had gone wrong.

Moreover, since news of his appearance in the West Sea has been leaked, the Navy will most likely dispatch warships from headquarters.

He was now very likely already at the Western Sea, and he keenly sensed that danger was approaching.

You should know that the Marine Headquarters is a concentration camp of monsters, and who knows how many powerful individuals reside there?

Although his control over the sea has weakened, it's not something he can easily exploit.

As for the matter of Deldan Island, he really couldn't understand it, so he could only grit his teeth and accept it for the time being.

Escaping is the priority now; he has no intention of going into the prison to move bricks.

Moreover, Charlotte felt that her mind was in complete turmoil.

Originally, it was to avoid trouble from Shiki the Golden Lion, but unexpectedly, before Shiki the Golden Lion even made a move, he had already made a round.

Mother's bounty has increased by a full fifty million Berries.

Who is this to reason with!

The most urgent task is to quickly return to our base in the new world and never come out again.

Screw the Golden Lion, screw the Navy, get out of my life.

Since learning that his whereabouts had been exposed, Charlotte ordered a full-speed departure. Fortunately, he kept a low profile along the way and did not reveal his location.

After six days and six nights of full-speed travel, Charlotte finally returned to the long-lost island of Latte.

It was a close call, but ultimately safe.

Of course, it would be even better if the bounty didn't increase.

This trip lasted for more than three months.

Charlotte was filled with emotion for a moment.

The towering fortress walls filled him with a sense of peace and security.

As the flag of the Heberfeller was raised, it was quickly and smoothly guided into its own port.

The moment Charlotte stepped onto the island, a relieved smile appeared on her face. Indeed, home is the best place!

It's still too dangerous outside.

"Holy crap, the changes are incredible!" Beta exclaimed in amazement.

"It really is big! After all, it's been three months since I left," Barrett agreed.

The others, who had never been to Lati Island before, were completely dumbfounded.

Is this... a port?

This should be the size of a massive fortress!

stomping on...

A series of footsteps sounded.

"Boss Charlotte."

"Boss Charlotte."

Footsteps and shouts came together, and Ivan, who followed closely behind, said excitedly, "Welcome back, Boss Charlotte."

"Ivan, as a member of the family leadership, don't get so emotional. Calm down, calm down!"

Seeing such a dramatic change, Charlotte felt a little guilty about Ivan's sacrifices.

"Okay, Boss Charlotte, I understand. I'll definitely pay attention next time. But congratulations on the bounty increasing, Boss."

???

What's there to congratulate about an increase in the reward? How many years of stroke must one have suffered before considering this a good thing?

Damn it, who exactly started this dangerous and unhealthy trend? It must be nipped in the bud.

Charlotte's eyes flashed with a dangerous light as she stared intently at Ivan.

Ivan suddenly felt a chill run down his spine and couldn't help but shiver.

His nose started to itch and he felt like sneezing, but the thought of embarrassing himself in front of his boss was unacceptable, so Ivan gritted his teeth and held back.

He was completely unaware of Charlotte's gaze.

Soon the group crossed the port and entered the town.

Charlotte was slightly surprised; the town had not only expanded, but also had a very familiar retro feel.

This……

Ivan noticed Charlotte's surprise and quickly began to explain.

"Boss, because the port of Lati Island has developed well and the pirates in the nearby waters have been wiped out, many displaced people have come here to settle down, so the town has been expanded."

For a moment, Charlotte was filled with mixed feelings of joy and sorrow.

The good news is that Lati Island is developing well, and more merchants will come here. The increase in commercial taxes will ensure his superior living conditions. On the other hand, his reputation is also rising.

That will inevitably bring danger.

I'm so distressed and conflicted!

He doesn't want to appear in front of the world too soon, otherwise it would be very distressing.

There is no way to have it all in this world!

After observing Charlotte's expression, Ivan continued.

"Boss, I used the blueprints you left in the office, please forgive me."

As Charlotte listened to Ivan's words, she suddenly understood why they felt familiar with each other.

That was how his hometown looked in his mind; he had just sketched some lines on a whim and never expected Ivan to find them.

Looking at the scene before him, he simply smiled and said, "It's nothing."

"However, you are really amazing, even Mr. Saga Lido said that your architectural style is extremely beautiful."

He designed that place; it's all the wisdom of our ancestors. I'm just a hardworking porter.

Of course, he didn't say it; it was his biggest secret.

"That would be an honor."

There were indeed quite a few unfamiliar faces on the road.

But why are there two rows of Heberfeller family flags hanging on both sides of the town's streets?

Charlotte glanced at Ivan with a flicker in her eyes.

Ivan felt Charlotte's gaze and puffed out his chest.

"Boss, this is my design. It better reflects the prestige of the Heberfeller family."

I……

Charlotte gritted her teeth. This looked so flashy, it was a bit too ostentatious!

The others, oblivious to the fact, were quite shocked.

Charlotte opened her mouth, but didn't say anything.

They just hung some flags on their own turf, so what?

Although it's quite large, it hasn't done anything else.

Moreover, he's a celebrity on Lati Island even without a flag!

Especially since he was a pirate with a bounty.

It's the kind of thing that can't be hidden at all.

Charlotte comforted himself, as long as he didn't become famous in the world and his bounty increased, he was still a nobody and could still slack off discreetly.

His bounty is negligible in the New World, barely even remotely significant.

The problem is probably, possibly, still within a controllable range.
