The Legendary Family of One Piece

Chapter 446 Far Ahead...

Thanosman's battle results caused a complete uproar around the world.

This sparked a huge discussion among countless people.

"The navy launched a near-total attack, yet it resulted in a crushing defeat."

"The Hibernating Family is the most terrifying pirate crew in the world!"

"The Whitebeard really is the strongest man in the world."

When will the sea return to calm?

"..."

The exorbitant bounty of 53 billion Berries on Hibernian Charlotte is particularly terrifying.

It's important to understand that increasing the bounty by even one step beyond 50 billion is incredibly difficult.

Because this bounty is entirely based on the assessment of the threat a pirate poses to the world.

It's on a completely different level from other bounties.

In addition, the bounties for almost all the well-known members of the Heberfeller family have been significantly increased.

Redfield's bounty is a whopping 43 billion peggs.

The other four kings each have a bounty exceeding two billion Berries, with Barrett having the highest at a staggering 38 billion Berries.

In terms of the bounty amount, the Heberfeller family is truly an unsurpassable force.

The impact of this battle was far greater than anyone could have imagined.

This shocking incident further damaged the Navy's prestige.

People are beginning to doubt whether the navy still has the ability to truly protect the world.

The navy suffered a crushing defeat, with only less than 20,000 of its 100,000 elite troops remaining. Even more unprecedented was the loss of the first admiral in the navy's history to die on the battlefield.

This blow, which caused countless people to lose their natural trust in the navy, has far-reaching consequences.

The navy has truly hit rock bottom this time.

Each and every one of these things is utterly unbelievable.

The power of the Four Emperors has refreshed the world's understanding, and this time the Heberfeller family is undoubtedly the most terrifying.

The fighting style it displayed was incredibly chaotic and absurd.

The pirates, who had been suppressed by the navy, were now even more eager to fight back, unleashing endless carnage on the calm seas.

This battle is known to the world as the Battle of Thanosman.

This solidified the Heberfeller family's unparalleled authority in the world, and they were widely recognized as the most powerful of the Four Emperors.

The strongest and most terrifying pirate family in history.

It is a truly overwhelming strength, far ahead of the competition.

Pangu City!

Between rights!

The five elders remained silent.

They anticipated failure, but never imagined it would be so devastating.

Kong, one of the legendary strongmen of the high seas, became the first Marine Admiral in history to be killed by pirates.

This has never happened in eight hundred years, leaving people speechless.

Even in the brutal era of Lox, nothing so outrageous had ever happened.

The Four Emperors are more troublesome than expected, but the most worrying are undoubtedly the Hibernian Pirates.

The seas are now in turmoil again due to the death of Fleet Admiral Kong and the loss of a large number of elite naval forces.

"Many member states have already requested assistance, and now a new admiral is needed to handle these matters."

Sacred Vochuli spoke slowly, "The massive losses suffered by the Navy have emboldened the pirates."

In particular, the lack of unified command from the admiral inevitably led to chaos within the vast naval system.

This is the enormous consequence of failure.

Satan Saint thought for a moment.

"The Sengoku period general is quite good; let's promote him to the position of Fleet Admiral!"

The other five elders nodded; Sengoku had a good impression of them.

This person from the Warring States period is quite capable, has a calm and steady demeanor that is well-suited to the current situation, and most importantly, is conscientious and obedient.

The position of Admiral of the Navy is of great importance, and only those who resolutely carry out their orders can be entrusted with it with confidence.

Furthermore, Kong had previously mentioned Sengoku and recommended that Sengoku succeed him as marshal.

"Then pass the notification on!"

Nassou-ro Sei spoke calmly, "The matter of the member states can't be delayed any longer; we can't allow those pirates to continue running rampant."

They're not one of the Four Emperors of the New World.

What they are most concerned about is the potential impact on the celestial gold reserves of the member states, which is a real headache.

"I think the navy is now too weak, it's time to start a global recruitment drive."

Piet Saint spoke slowly.

The other five elders hesitated for a moment, as an excessively large naval force was not a good thing.

However, he then thought of the Four Emperors of the New World, whose strength was indeed too great.

"Okay, I second that."

Mazsan nodded in agreement to the proposal.

Even a massive naval conscription wouldn't get out of control because of the existence of the Four Emperors of the New World plus the Seven Warlords of the Sea.

The navy, whose strength has been most severely weakened, is unable to fulfill its intended role.

An effective balance of power among the three parties cannot be formed.

The Seven Warlords of the Sea were somewhat dissatisfied with their performance, but in order to restrain the Four Emperors of the New World, they had no choice but to retain the Seven Warlords system.

The remaining three Elders, seeing the statements of their two companions, also chose to agree.

The navy also needs to protect the member states and maintain the stability of the celestial gold.

"Then let's notify them all at once!"

As soon as he finished speaking, the entire room fell completely silent.

Marine Headquarters, Marineford!

This battle dealt a devastating blow to the morale of the navy.

The various high-ranking naval officers, their bodies wrapped in bandages, remained silent.

Of the 100,000 elite naval troops, less than 20,000 remain. Such a loss is suffocating and depressing.

The navy has completely lost the possibility of conquering the New World, and such a blow is considerable.

The New World has become a paradise for pirates. Apart from Vice Admiral Garp protecting Egerhard, almost everyone else has gathered at headquarters.

They are currently facing a severe shortage of manpower.

What should be the next step?

The entire navy became somewhat confused.

The death of Fleet Admiral Kong Kong shook countless naval personnel.

Even the highest-ranking admiral in the navy at that time, Sengoku, was having a major headache.

If a naval admiral cannot be appointed quickly, there will inevitably be considerable chaos within the navy.

Soon the message from the World Government arrived here.

"The World Government has decided that Admiral Sengoku will assume the position of Fleet Admiral starting today."

As soon as the words were spoken, the naval high command breathed a sigh of relief. With a naval admiral in place, they had a pillar of support.

Furthermore, the prestige accumulated during the Warring States period meant that no navy was dissatisfied.

The handover of the marshal's position proceeded more smoothly than expected.

While feeling alarmed, the Warring States period also sensed a heavy responsibility.

He needs to revitalize the navy's morale, and what follows will inevitably be a series of powerful and significant actions.

A glint of light flashed in Zhan Guo's eyes.

……

……

Three days later!

Lati Island!

Inside the office!

Charlotte leaned back on the sofa, listening to Ivan's report.

The Hibernating family certainly stole the show in this battle, and their achievements were equally immense.

Each knightly order suffered losses to varying degrees, proving that the navy's strength should not be underestimated.

"Boss, all the family members who died in battle have been taken care of."

Charlotte nodded slightly. It took three days to complete the cleanup work, so one can imagine that the losses were considerable.

Moreover, this collaboration between the Four Emperors has run into problems, which has caused significant issues to the already fragile alliance between them.

Whitebeard was quite dissatisfied with Charlotte Linlin.

Charlotte was also very dissatisfied with Charlotte Linlin.

This woman never appeared until the end of the battle, which makes one wonder if she had other plans.

Charlotte had a terrible headache. He rubbed his throbbing head and said.

"The various knightly orders should rework and prepare to replenish their manpower!"

"Okay, I'll go and inform them right away."

Ivan bowed and took his leave, then began his busy work.

Charlotte sat there quietly. Although the losses were considerable, the blow to the Navy this time was quite perfect.

At the very least, the navy will not easily step into the New World for several years, let alone recklessly start a war.

This gave the Heberfeller family an opportunity to recuperate and develop vigorously.

"Charlotte, a new newspaper has arrived."

Lina walked in, naturally carrying the latest newspaper from the sea.

Charlotte didn't care at first, because the general public always talked about how powerful and terrifying the Heberfeller family was...

There's no sincerity at all; it gets annoying after seeing it so often.

Seeing Charlotte's expression, Lina spoke up directly.

"Charlotte, this time there's big news. The Navy is making a big move."

Upon hearing this, Xia Luo paused slightly.

Is the navy planning something big?

Without saying a word, Charlotte picked up the newspaper and started reading.

[Shocking! Huge changes have occurred within the Navy...]

Former Admiral Sengoku has been appointed as the new Fleet Admiral, and the Navy has promoted three admirals...

Akainu - Sakazuki

Kizaru - Borsalino

Aokiji - Kuzan

Charlotte was slightly speechless. Good heavens, the Navy has undergone a major change.

The era of the three admirals of the Marine Natural Division has arrived; this is truly a major development.

Slightly surprised, he continued looking.

Fleet Admiral Sengoku has initiated a global recruitment drive, and two monster-level experts have already joined, becoming candidates for Admiral...

Charlotte narrowed her eyes slightly. This was quite a generous gesture, sending out four candidates for Admiral.

Admiral candidate Momousagi - Otori!

General Candidate Cha-Ton - Additional Plan!

General candidate Fujitora—Issho!

Green Bull, the Admiral Candidate—Araki!

With familiar faces still around, the navy's massive recruitment drive quickly restored most of its strength, and its formidable foundation remained as formidable as ever.

What followed was a large-scale promotion of various naval officers, with vice admirals, rear admirals, and commodores emerging one after another.

This feels even more intense than the previous decisive battle, but it will take time to replenish the navy's elite forces.

However, he was not worried, as the navy would not recklessly attack the New World nowadays.

Because if they suffer another defeat, the Navy's prestige will be completely destroyed, especially considering the strength of the Four Emperors, even if the Navy were to launch a full-scale attack.

The result is the same.

However, such a large-scale naval operation is truly impressive, at least Sengoku was able to make such a decision in such a short time.

It is evident that his methods are extraordinary.

This is a very difficult and troublesome guy.

The strategic wisdom of the Buddhist Warring States period should not be underestimated.

Charlotte pondered for a moment, realizing that the Heberfeller family needed to continue accumulating power.

The coming period will surely be much calmer.
