The Legendary Family of One Piece

Chapter 228 Taking Advantage of His Illness to Kill Him

After the Battle of Advor, the Heberfeller family gradually gained the aura of a regional hegemon.

Charlotte and her group's fame soared, and the total bounty on their heads reached nearly four billion.

The rumors outside were escalating, but Xia Luo and his companions proceeded with their plans step by step.

Lati Island!

The venue for the first Kendo Tournament!

In the future, an annual kendo tournament will be held regularly.

This is an important event that Charlotte herself announced.

The purpose was naturally to prepare for absorbing various sword techniques or to recruit swordsmen who voluntarily joined the Heberfeller family.

This will not only enhance the foundation of the Sword Court, but also improve the strength and quality of the swordsmen of the Heberfeller family.

They were trained to be mid-level combatants for the Hibernian family.

As a newly emerging powerful swordsman in the world, Charlotte naturally prepared generous rewards for this swordsmanship tournament.

The most basic prize is the cash reward, with the winner receiving a generous reward of 3 million Berries.

Furthermore, Charlotte promised that the winner could visit the Sword Court of the Heberfeller family to study various sword techniques and insights.

Most importantly, you will receive guidance from a master swordsman and even have the opportunity to learn from him, a true master swordsman.

This move naturally attracted countless swordsmen with dreams, who came from all over the world.

Swordsmen arrive at Lati Island in droves every day.

"It's really lively!"

Standing on high ground, Beta looked at the throngs of people in the distance; tens of thousands of people flocked to the entire island every day.

His purpose in being here is naturally to guard the island and prevent any ungrateful individuals from causing trouble on Lati Island.

After all, there are always quite a few people who are brainless, stubborn, and not smart.

The flourishing of various commercial trades reflects the vibrant development of Lati Island.

Even the five-star hotel, the Heberfeller Luxury Hotel, became overcrowded.

Lati Island is now one of the most prosperous transit hubs in the New World and enjoys a very high reputation.

Not only because of its harmonious environment, but more importantly because of the formidable powerful figure who resides on the island, ensuring its peace and prosperity.

The Heberfeller family is now one of the most notorious pirate families on the high seas.

This period is one of the busiest times of the year on Lati Island.

Swordsmen from all over the world flocked to the tournament, all vying for the title of first place in the kendo competition.

If you win first place, wealth, fame, and power will all be within your grasp.

This can truly be described as a super-luxurious world-class event.

The entire process was not only recorded on video, but also involved a large number of reporters, and included live broadcasts of the battle.

In front of the huge kendo competition venue!

A steady stream of applicants flocked to the registration site, though the minimum requirement for registration was the Iron-Cutting Realm.

Otherwise, if a bunch of mediocre people come, the number of people will be too large, which will be time-consuming and laborious.

Of course, swordsmen who lack strength are also aware of their limitations and will not participate. Simply watching the battle is an unparalleled enjoyment and reward for them.

"This is truly the first time I've ever seen swordsmen like this! This must be what a swordsman's feast looks like!"

Mitis looked around at the people dressed differently, with various swords and knives hanging from their waists.

An endless expanse of swordsmen.

"You'll get used to it after seeing it more often."

Ivan spoke casually, but he was inwardly very excited. He knew that although such a grand event was very costly, it would undeniably bring great prestige to the Heberfeller family.

"I wonder which outstanding young swordsmen will emerge this time."

Chizo, dressed in a specially designed samurai outfit, had eyes full of anticipation.

Now, as the chief kendo instructor of the Heberfeller family, he looks forward to more exceptionally talented swordsmen joining the Heberfeller family.

I truly want this place to become a sacred place of swordsmanship that all swordsmen on the high seas yearn for.

Pande wasn't interested in such large-scale battles; his greatest passions were food and expanding his diverse and eccentric animal army.

Even if he wins first place, it won't have much to do with him.

What Pande was very concerned about was whether any strange sword-wielding animals would appear at this gathering.

Thinking about it, it's actually pretty cool!

……

……

Luxurious office!

Lina just brought Charlotte a whole bunch of different kinds of food.

Looking at the mountain of food piled on the table, Charlotte sighed with a headache. "Lina, is this really necessary?"

"That won't do! Gillian told you to eat more to avoid any lingering injuries after your injury!"

Forehead???

Charlotte was slightly bewildered. "I knew that battle was so long ago, what injury could it be? It's already healed!"

"That's all in the past..."

Lina stood with her hands on her hips, glaring at him, looking like she wouldn't listen, her stubbornness was exasperating.

"Okay, okay!"

Charlotte had no choice but to start eating the huge pile of food.

Although it's delicious, you can't resist eating without doing anything. If you keep doing that, you'll easily turn into a pig!

It looks like I need to train even harder.

Lina stood beside Charlotte like a secretary, keeping a close eye on her, determined to finish the food in front of her.

This was a task that Gillian had given her.

I'm so happy that Charlotte was able to eat so much. I waited until Charlotte had finished eating, and her stomach was so full that it looked like a big ball.

The next second, Charlotte activated "Life Return", and visibly returned to normal.

Lina then continued, satisfied.

"Charlotte! There's still no news of Shiki the Golden Lion on the high seas. Should we continue the investigation?"

Charlotte paused in her comfortable stretching. It seemed that Shiki the Golden Lion was seriously injured and hadn't shown up yet.

Due to Shiki the Golden Lion's defeat in the war, large areas that he originally controlled have begun to experience varying degrees of riots.

Many wandering pirate crews have begun to encroach on Shiki's territory.

He had been searching for Shiki the Golden Lion, his aim being to take advantage of Shiki's illness and kill him!

Unfortunately, things didn't go as planned!

"Then forget it, let's just ignore it."

Charlotte spoke softly, and Lina nodded silently.

He knew very well that when Shiki the Golden Lion reappeared after recovering from his injuries, he would once again unleash a terrible massacre.

The Heberfeller family will eventually have to clash with Shiki the Golden Lion.

Of course, Shiki the Golden Lion's massive fleet suffered heavy losses and posed no threat to them.

He himself is the greatest threat.

Stretching his back, Charlotte stopped thinking about it.

"By the way, when is the kendo tournament held?"

"Yes, in three days!"

Three days later?

Charlotte nodded secretly; that was not bad.

Are you going to watch it live?

Lina looked at Charlotte and asked him about his next plans.

"There's no need for that. Just bring the winner to see me."

He didn't want to waste time watching weak swordsmen fight; it wouldn't be of much use to him right now.

Only by constantly battling against stronger opponents can he achieve amazing results.

Moreover, he had no reason to expose himself to the public eye; the strong are more intimidating when they remain mysterious.

"learn!"

Lina quickly jotted it down in her notebook, preparing to make a reasonable schedule later.

After all, as the head of the Heberfeller family with a vast fortune, Charlotte needed to set aside some time to handle many necessary matters.

This was an unavoidable situation; even if Charlotte didn't want to, no one could replace him.
