The Legendary Family of One Piece

Chapter 128 Reading really broadens one's horizons

Charlotte rubbed her slightly sore head. Everyone had gone too crazy yesterday, drinking a lot and staying up late.

His head was still a little dizzy when he got up.

You really should drink less alcohol; you can't overindulge.

Fortunately, the thoughtful Lina had already prepared a hangover cure juice for him, as well as a delicately presented and light LOVE breakfast.

Charlotte sat comfortably on the sofa, enjoying the food. It looked delicious and tasted amazing.

The gentle Lina beside him was carefully peeling the orange for him.

Charlotte had a look of pure enjoyment on her face.

This kind of life is wonderful!

Why bother with the dangers and misery of fighting at sea?

We're not short of money!

At that moment, a henchman rushed into Charlotte's office, panting.

"Report, boss."

Charlotte was a little puzzled. His underlings usually didn't act like this. A sudden chill ran down her spine. Had they gotten into some kind of trouble again?

"Tell me slowly, what happened?"

"yes!"

Catching his breath, the underling spoke up, "Our boss is Shiki the Golden Lion."

Upon hearing this, Xia Luo's face darkened; hearing this old guy's name was definitely not a good sign.

The other party would never have thought of such a good thing.

There's no way to avoid it; hopefully, this guy won't go too far.

"What did he say?"

The younger brother immediately spoke up.

"The Den Den Mushi (snap sticky rice dump) tells you to go to Dressrosa."

"Go ahead and get busy!"

After Charlotte dismissed his underlings, she fell into deep thought.

He didn't believe that the other party would send him to Dressrosa for no reason.

What is Shiki the Golden Lion up to now?

Dressrosa!

Dressrosa is still ruled by the Riku royal family, and the current king is Riku Dold III.

Doflamingo has not yet intervened in the country to create chaos, and the tragedy of the kingdom has not yet occurred.

Therefore, this country is still very friendly, and there shouldn't be any major security issues.

However, it seems to be a bit close to the area where the navy is active.

The navy is a big problem!

As a pirate, he would easily be targeted by the Navy.

This is really troublesome!

He was still puzzled as to why.

Where is Shiki the Golden Lion sending him?

This is a problem.

"Charlotte, shall we go?"

Lina noticed that Charlotte was somewhat lost in thought and gently asked a question, interrupting Charlotte's reverie.

Charlotte fell silent for a moment.

Lina couldn't help but feel a little worried.

"Go and get ready!"

Lina opened her mouth as if she wanted to say something, but ultimately didn't say anything, and sensibly walked towards the door.

Although Xia Luo was unwilling, he was prepared to just coast along and not contribute no matter what happened.

Their main strategy is to take advantage of chaos.

Wasn't it fine last time?

He slacked off the whole time, but unknowingly became the biggest winner.

Shiki the Golden Lion became the perfect scapegoat.

With such a successful precedent, how can we not use it?

Thinking about this made him feel much more at ease.

Got it.

It's impossible to get him to risk his life, and raising his reward is out of the question—there's not even the slightest possibility of it.

Upon hearing the news, everyone rushed to his office.

"Boss, what are we going to do this time?"

Beta couldn't wait to ask, he had been itching to fight for a long time.

Charlotte was utterly speechless. What kind of good thing was this, that everyone was so excited?

The warlike tendencies of the Heberfeller family seem to be getting worse.

I'm really exhausted. I don't understand what it means to "hide your talents and bide your time" or "make a fortune quietly."

"I don't know either, we'll see when we get there."

Charlotte said irritably.

"Boss, where are we going?" Beta persisted, his face full of anticipation.

"Dresrossa!"

Mitis's eyes lit up. "Mr. Charlotte, is it the country with the 'Legend of Fairies'?"

Forehead?

Charlotte was taken aback for a moment, but quickly realized that "fairies" must refer to the "little people" living in Greenbit, also known as the "Dundada people".

"Yes, that's it."

Mytis's eyes lit up instantly. He had discovered this story in the annals of the Riku royal family, but unfortunately, the record was incomplete.

"Fairy, is it delicious?"

Beta poked his big head out and asked curiously, which immediately piqued the interest of the panda Pander.

Good heavens, seeing Beta and Pendor sharpening their knives, Charlotte broke out in a cold sweat.

It's terrible to be uncultured!

"Ivan, Pander, forget about it. They're a rare race, so don't even think about eating them."

He had to speak up to warn him, lest this guy cause something serious in order to try the "fairy".

Give them a heads-up beforehand and keep a firm grip on them.

Sure enough, upon hearing this, the man and the bear instantly lost interest in the "fairy".

Seeing this, Charlotte breathed a sigh of relief and calmly picked up her juice and took a sip.

Beta seemed to have thought of something again and spoke excitedly.

"Boss, shall we go to Dressrosa to save the people who are suffering?"

After saying that, he even made a gesture of crossing his arms.

"puff!"

Charlotte sprayed the juice from her mouth directly onto Beta's face.

This ridiculous move, where did this guy learn it? If another beam of light comes along... did this kid steal his time-traveling script?

"Boss..."

Beta, who had been mercilessly sprayed in the face, felt utterly hopeless.

"Ahem... Sorry, I'm a little excited, a little excited."

Charlotte composed herself and said calmly, "Everyone must remember to keep a low profile when we go to Dressrosa this time."

Everyone's expression instantly turned serious; such an arrangement usually indicates something big is about to happen.

"Alright, everyone, stop here and get ready!"

"Yes, boss."

Everyone left.

Only Charlotte sat alone on the sofa, looking up at the ceiling, lost in thought.

Although I did a lot of mental preparation.

But Shiki the Golden Lion is being so cautious this time, it's probably not just a small-scale operation!

And what is there in Dressrosa that would make Shiki the Golden Lion covet it?

Charlotte racked her brains, trying to think of something, but it seemed there was really nothing worth thinking about!

Aside from the fact that the Donquixote Family was once the royal family of Dressrosa but later left the country to join the World Government and become "Celestial Dragons," there doesn't seem to be anything particularly special about them.

As for whether he coveted the dwarves, well, given Shiki the Golden Lion's personality, he wouldn't even notice them.

Furthermore, the Dwarf race's influence is mostly confined to the territory of Dressrosa, and the outside world knows very little about them.

Mitis knew this entirely because the books he brought back from Ohara also contained some legends and records of these countries.

Therefore, reading books really broadens one's horizons.

"Clatter!"

Charlotte subconsciously lit a cigarette, put it in her mouth, leaned back against the sofa, and comfortably exhaled a long plume of smoke.

This is a really troublesome and perplexing matter.

Meanwhile, the Heberfeller family members each took their own orderly actions.

Select elite soldiers and experienced support personnel, and ensure that all supplies are fully prepared.

Thank you for the monthly pass support from Martial Arts Supreme.
