The Legendary Family of One Piece

Chapter 317 is nothing more than a matter of face.

The world was shocked! A powerful earthquake struck the ocean.

News of the Heberfeller family's raid on Impel Down spread throughout the world at lightning speed.

This is arguably the most shocking event to happen at sea today.

The world's largest prison, which had imprisoned and suppressed countless vicious and ruthless pirates for hundreds of years since its inception, was actually breached in this era.

This is an incredibly terrifying event.

The myth of that great prison, which had deterred evil, protected world peace, and was known as an impregnable fortress that had never experienced an accident, has now been shattered, causing countless ordinary people to tremble.

The Heberfeller family was a vicious and cruel family.

This also prompted the powerful figures on the high seas to express their feelings.

Sphinx Island!

A huge bowl of liquor sat before Edward Newgate, the white-bearded man: "Glug glug! This kid's getting crazier and crazier."

Whole Cake Island!

Big Mom Charlotte Linlin burst into laughter: "Mamamama, this is getting more and more chaotic..."

The country of Wano!

Kaido's eyes blazed with fighting spirit. He picked up the giant gourd and began to drink wildly, roaring loudly.

"Hahaha! Hibernian Charlotte looks forward to a fight with you!"

"Pluto," Silvers Rayleigh exclaimed in surprise, "Charlotte, you're becoming more and more astonishing."

North Sea!

Don Quixote Family!

Doflamingo crossed his legs and looked at the newspaper in his hand.

The world is in madness, the seas are raging! The myth of unparalleled inevitability has been shattered! The impregnable Impel Down has been utterly breached by the Heberfeller family…

"Fluffy fluffy... The Heberfeller family is truly insane!"

Doflamingo revealed an evil smile, appearing utterly deranged.

However, in his eyes, this was the family he admired most on the high seas—unscrupulous and powerful.

The Don Quixote family will one day be as powerful as the Heberfeller family, dominating the seas.

A terrible, raging fire was boiling in his heart.

Mary Geoise, the Paradise of God!

The Five Elders, the supreme leaders of the world government.

His expression was serious at that moment!

The Legal Martial God, Vochuli Saint, with his two enormous crescent-shaped beards, clasped his hands in a fist and said in a deep voice, "This Heberfeller family is audacious and reckless. How should we deal with them?"

The God of Scientific Defense, Satan Saint, with a hideous scar on his left cheek, leaned on a wooden cane. He said coldly, "Such a heinous crime is unforgivable."

Nasu Shouro, the financial martial god dressed in a martial arts uniform, bald, and carrying a long sword on his shoulder, stroked his chin and said, "The balance of the New World is almost achieved now, and sending the Navy into the New World will inevitably cause fierce confrontation."

With long white hair and a goatee, the Environmental War God Maz Saint slowly spoke, "Then temporarily increase the bounty and send CP3 to closely monitor the movements of the Hibernian family. The main operation against the Hibernian family should still be handled by the Navy; capturing pirates is their responsibility."

The other five elders could only nod silently.

The current situation is such that a large-scale attack on the New World is impossible, as that would easily lead to terrible battles. As for alarming Lord Im, it's not worth it.

Scientific Defense War God Satan Saint: "How to quell world opinion!"

Legal Martial God, Vochuli Saint: "Create new public opinion and divert attention."

"I second that!"

The remaining three Elders unanimously approved it.

As long as they create new focal points to divert global public opinion, that's all they need to do; after all, that's a tactic they often use.

"Send CP5 to warn Morgans," the Legal God of War continued.

"I second that!"

A seemingly terrifying public opinion storm was set up for the next steps by the Five Elders with a casual arrangement.

There was neither much concern nor much attention paid to the arrogance of the Heberfeller family.

Let the Navy deal with the pirates; they just need to maintain a stable grip on the world from behind the scenes.

It's worth noting that from the Rocks Pirates to the Roger Pirates... each one was a force that shocked the world and gave the World Government a major headache, yet they were still destroyed.

The Whitebeard Pirates of the New World, the Beasts Pirates, the Big Mom Pirates, the Hibernate Pirate Family...

In their view, it was nothing more than a fleeting moment of glory.

Over a long period of time, world governments have experienced many earth-shattering events, yet they remain as stable as ever.

The Hibernator family's raid on Impel Down may seem like a big deal, but it doesn't actually affect the foundation of the World Government's rule at all; it's just a matter of saving face.

Even if these pirates are powerful, they lack the power to overthrow the world and are not worth the World Government's full effort.

What they were always wary of was the great war that was prophesied in legends.

"The Blank Century," "Joy Boy," "The Great Kingdom"... these things about the erased history are what make them most wary.

Once exposed, that would be a terrifying force capable of overthrowing the rule of world governments.

The real foundation is shaken.

Moreover, based on their preliminary intelligence, Hibernian did not conduct any research on the history of the "Void Century".

……

Lati Island!

Despite the turmoil in the outside world, Charlotte remained completely unconcerned.

As long as the Heberfeller family doesn't delve into that forbidden history, he believes the World Government won't take any major action.

The Five Elders personally descending? Don't be ridiculous. Even when Roger became the Pirate King and obtained all the secrets, the Five Elders didn't show up.

Because only a limited number of people know about it and it hasn't spread globally, there is a problem, but it's not a major one.

The Impel Down incident was at most egregious, but it was nothing compared to the sheer size of the World Government.

Therefore, Charlotte was very relaxed.

Even if the World Government were to actually attack the Hibernian family, it would still have to pay a price.

This is the significance of the Heberfeller family's continuous development and accumulation.

One must be strong to forge iron; one must never become a fish on a chopping board to be slaughtered at will.

Charlotte sipped her red wine with a contented expression, looking quite relaxed.

"Charlotte, you don't seem worried at all!"

Redfield spoke calmly.

"What's there to worry about?"

Charlotte responded calmly.

For a moment, Redfield was somewhat taken aback, then shook his head. What seemed like a huge deal to the world might be nothing more than a drop in the ocean to the world government.

"Hey, are you going to join the Heberfeller family or not, you tsundere?"

Charlotte looked at Redfield and asked calmly.

Redfield fell silent. In truth, he really didn't want to join any faction, but Charlotte had saved him after all, and the two of them got along quite well.

Charlotte looked at the conflicted guy and shook her head. "Fine, fine, I won't pressure you anymore."

Redfield smiled.

Charlotte wasn't in a rush to get closer to this guy; once they lived together for a while, they'd gradually become family!

Isn't this a normal thing?
