The Legendary Family of One Piece

Chapter 252 The eyes of the masses are discerning.

Lati Island!

Inside Charlotte's luxurious office!

"Damn it! Why is my bounty so low?"

Beta roared in frustration like a wounded beast, staring at the bounty poster in his hand with a look of displeasure.

He only has a bounty of 1.065 billion Berries, while Barrett and Jhin have much higher bounties.

Especially since Barrett's bounty was the highest among the three, which made him extremely, particularly, and especially unhappy.

Damn navy, are you all blind?! I was so brave and fearless on the battlefield!

So handsome, yet the reward is so small, it's utterly inhumane.

"The navy is blind!"

Beta muttered angrily, venting his dissatisfaction.

Seeing Beta's dissatisfied expression, Barrett felt a surge of satisfaction and didn't forget to deliver a merciless sarcastic remark.

"What nonsense are you talking about? That's called having a discerning eye; the eyes of the masses are sharp!"

He had a high bounty of 1.2584 billion Berries, and he firmly suppressed Beta, curbing the guy's arrogance. It felt strangely satisfying.

"You damn bastard, do you want to fight?" Beta glared angrily.

"Who's afraid of who! You wretched gorilla!"

"Bullet Head, don't be so arrogant!"

The two men's faces were pressed together, their teeth clenched and their expressions contorted, as if they wanted to bite each other to death.

Jhin watched all this quietly, secretly chuckling at the two guys. His bounty had also exceeded one billion, reaching a staggering 1,189 million Berries.

You have to admit, such an exorbitant reward always makes people feel a little giddy!

The bounty alone is enough to demonstrate their strength at sea.

Especially in this day and age, a bounty of over a billion is quite terrifying, and its value is self-evident.

Barrett and Beta's argument grew louder and louder, and they were rolling up their sleeves, looking like they were about to fight.

"Thump! Thump!"

Two muffled thuds followed, and Barrett and Beta fell silent instantly.

"If you two have so much energy, go do some manual labor!"

Lina's fists were steaming hot, her face contorted in a terrifying grimace, utterly devoid of any ladylike demeanor.

The two men, each with a large bump on their head, remained silent, sulking.

Jin shook his head. He knew this would happen. The two of them always did this. They never learned their lesson!

But you have to admit how terrifying Lina is!

Charlotte was also slightly surprised. This time he increased the bounty by one billion, bringing the total bounty to a total of 2.3352 billion Berries.

This startled him; it seems the amount of Golden Lion Shiki is ridiculously high.

He didn't really believe that the Navy had gone mad and arbitrarily placed a bounty on him.

Currently, the total bounty on the four members of the Heberfeller family alone is nearly five billion.

It has to be said that this is amazing; such a bounty is truly explosive on the high seas.

Of course, the most explosive one has to be the Pirate King Roger.

The bounty of "Pirate King" Roger is higher than the combined bounties of the other four, after all, Roger alone has a bounty of 5.5648 billion Berries.

The bounty was absolutely terrifying, which also shows how much the World Government valued the Pirate King Roger.

However, Barrett and Beta, who had been forcibly stopped by Lina from calming down, were now glaring at each other with displeasure.

"Alright, everyone!"

Once he came to his senses, Charlotte spoke, explaining that he needed to proceed with the next steps of the arrangements.

"Ivan, tell me what's been happening lately?"

Charlotte looked at Ivan, who had been waiting for a long time.

Ivan nodded, stepped forward, and said slowly, "Boss, ever since the Heberfeller family became famous, there have been countless spies from various forces. So far, no less than a hundred people have been arrested."

Charlotte was somewhat surprised.

Although he knew very well that the Heberfeller family would be targeted by various forces sooner or later, wasn't the number of spies a bit exaggerated?

That's a bit outrageous.

Good heavens! This guy probably wants to infiltrate the Heberfeller family into a sieve!

It's not hard to understand, really. The things the Heberfeller family has shown in battle have begun to attract a lot of attention.

This kind of thing is simply unavoidable.

Fortunately, the Heberfeller family has a strict vetting system that eliminates more than 90% of spies, and he is also the one guarding the core.

It's extremely safe!

What happened after the battle?

Charlotte looked at Ivan and asked, showing his concern for the losses on the battlefield.

"The losses were not significant. All the officers played a powerful role, especially the cyborg Adli, who performed exceptionally well and whose laser attacks were very effective."

Charlotte nodded. The scientific power of the Hipparion family was beginning to take hold, and it had been best validated on the battlefield, which could further promote its development.

"Subsequently, I led the Hibernian family warships and crushed most of the remnants of Shiki the Golden Lion."

Ivan was elated; this was a battle that would bring fame to the Heberfeller family, and it had been a great success in every respect.

This has had an undeniable impact on the development of the entire Heberfeller family.

"We captured a large number of vicious criminals and sent them to the laboratory to serve as experimental subjects, since experimental subjects are scarce in various human experiments."

Charlotte was well aware of this: whether it was human modification, bloodline factors, or gigantification, all kinds of experimental subjects were needed.

Pirates' lives are worthless; they're a bunch of vicious bastards who have done plenty of burning, killing, and looting. Using them as experimental subjects is no problem at all.

Let them become fuel for the Heberfeller family's advancement! Let their deaths wash away their sins; this is a significant contribution to world peace, very good.

"Boss, I plan to build a prison, partly to deter the enemy, and partly to utilize the captured enemy forces as test subjects for the Heberfeller family's laboratory."

Charlotte did not hesitate when faced with Ivan's suggestion.

"Can!"

Moreover, a large number of islands have just fallen from the sky near Lati Island. These islands are vast and very close, and will be completely connected to Lati Island in the future.

Building a Heberfeller prison there is a trivial matter.

After receiving Charlotte's approval, Ivan was full of energy.

"Boss, those islands in Golden Lion Island have abundant mineral resources. I'm planning to send a team to mine them and build factories..."

Charlotte wasn't an expert in this area, so she naturally wouldn't offer much commentary.

"I'll leave it to you to handle!"

Ivan is the expert in this area, so he doesn't need to waste his energy on these trivial matters.

He quickly asked the question that concerned him most.

"By the way, is there any news about the Paramecia-type Float-Float Fruit?"

Charlotte had been eyeing this Devil Fruit for a long time, and he was determined to get his hands on it as soon as it appeared.

This played an irreplaceable role in the rapid expansion of the island of Lati by the Heberfeller family.

Reclaiming land from the sea by humans is too troublesome nowadays, even with the help of giants, it takes a lot of time.

"I haven't heard of it yet."

Ivan shook his head, answering truthfully as well.

"Then send more people to keep an eye out, and notify us immediately if it appears."

"Yes, boss!"

With the conclusion of this post-battle debriefing, Charlotte also issued an order that those who performed outstandingly in the battle would not only be rewarded with money but also promoted in status.

Of course, the detailed conditions involved are a matter for Ivan and his team to handle.

He naturally doesn't need to worry about it.

The Heberfeller family can finally openly and legitimately occupy a place in the new world.

Having defeated Shiki the Golden Lion, they have every right to continue striding confidently into a new era.

The legend of the Heberfeller family has only just begun.

The Flying Pirates' flag has now been collected by the Heberfeller family.

That was the strongest enemy the Heberfeller family had ever defeated, bar none.

This is a well-deserved record.
