The Legendary Family of One Piece

Chapter 504 What Kind of Legend Would That Be?

As the king of the Fish-Men, Neptune's decisions were of paramount importance.

Such a major event as a marriage alliance must be handled with utmost care.

Marrying into Charlotte's child and marrying Charlotte are two different concepts.

They are worlds apart in terms of identity, status, and reputation.

To gain the trust of Fishman Island, this person's reputation among the fishmen must be no less than that of the Fishman Island's king.

Whether they are fish-men or mermaids, the vast majority of them have a deep-seated awe and worship for Charlotte.

Only through marriage to Charlotte can the handover ceremony proceed smoothly, and it is also the true bridge connecting humans and fish-men.

In the pirate world where bloodline inheritance is highly valued, the marriage between Charlotte and Shirahoshi is undoubtedly the best choice.

A child who shares the blood of both races is the most direct and powerful declaration.

"Charlotte, this marriage is probably not feasible without you."

Neptune sighed and said that he didn't want to force his daughter into a marriage, but now he had no choice.

He had complete faith in Charlotte's character.

"Is that not allowed?"

Charlotte sighed inwardly, understanding that this was due to the persecution of the fish-men by humans under the prevailing circumstances.

Although the Hibernian family did not do this, when there is no way out and there is no other way, how to protect the fish-man inhabitants is a problem that must be considered.

A marriage alliance is indeed the best option!

Moreover, this requires possessing extremely high prestige, to be trusted and respected by everyone on the continent of Heberfeller.

The most important attitude is to form a marriage alliance with him, to reassure the people of all ethnic groups, and to promote true integration.

He was lost in thought.

Neptune did not urge him, but waited quietly.

Even though they have been friends for many years, this man is the true king of the sea.

A sense of propriety is essential!

Moreover, he himself had a very high opinion of Charlotte and the Kingdom of Heberfeller.

In Neptune's view, the vast kingdom of Hibernius would surely become the greatest and most unique nation in the world.

As the founding king of the vast kingdom of Heberfeller, Charlotte will undoubtedly leave a significant mark on history.

As longtime friends with a close relationship, he was well aware that Charlotte maintained a youthful appearance.

To put it bluntly!

As long as Charlotte is there, the kingdom of Heberfeller will endure forever, a fact Neptune firmly believed.

So what kind of legend would it be if the Kingdom of Heberfeller developed steadily for hundreds of years or even longer?

A legendary first monarch who founded a nation, the originator of an ideal land, a hero adorned with countless legends...

This kingdom is remembered by the world for its deeds, and stands at the pinnacle of the world because of its ideals...

What a legend, how great and glorious!

Neptune, as the king of the ancient Fishman Kingdom, naturally saw things very clearly.

This may usher in an extraordinary era, a kingdom unlike any other.

No… to be precise, it was an unprecedented super empire—the Heberfeller Empire!

Bai Xing blushed and looked at Xia Luo with a slightly awkward expression. She had heard too many legends about this man.

Each and every one of these events was so awe-inspiring, making him a truly heroic man who stood tall and proud in this world.

He himself can be considered a hero of Fishman Island, fulfilling the Fishman Kingdom's centuries-old wish.

Such people are few and far between throughout the entire history of Fishman Island.

Charlotte was caught in a deep dilemma. To be honest, he didn't really like making such a hasty decision, and Shirahoshi was still young!

In addition, the two are too different in size.

His height of over three meters is truly... indescribable compared to Bai Xing's height of over eleven meters.

They don't seem like the kind of couple who could become husband and wife.

"That……"

Just as Charlotte was about to speak...

"Whoosh!"

A piercing whooshing sound rang out, and a huge, sharp battle axe came hurtling towards Princess Shirahoshi from afar with incredible speed.

Princess Shirahoshi covered her mouth with both hands, her face turning pale with fright.

In an instant, Charlotte moved.

"Clang!"

A crisp clang of metal clashing rang out as Charlotte, in mid-air, firmly caught the incoming weapon with two fingers of one hand.

The sudden turn of events took everyone by surprise.

Mitis and the others naturally noticed it as well, but they were nowhere near as quick as Charlotte.

"Enemy attack!"

The murloc guards, realizing what was happening, shouted loudly.

Charlotte's gaze was fixed on the distance, which was quite unexpected!

The corners of his mouth turned up slightly, as if he had thought of something interesting.

"Damn VanderDeacon!"

Neptune puffed out his beard and glared, his anger flaring. This was the guy who had caused his most beloved daughter to have to stay inside the Hard Shell Tower every day.

At this moment, van der Deiken was already blinded by anger.

When Queen Otohime died, he heard Shirahoshi's cries, which attracted a colossal sea king.

Make him understand that Shirahoshi is the mermaid princess that the ancestors have been searching for, the one who can control sea kings in legends, and be certain that she will be stunningly beautiful when she grows up.

Driven by greed for this power and Shirahoshi's beauty, he harbored wicked intentions.

He never expected that today, the treacherous King Neptune would actually arrange a marriage between White Star and King Neptune. His anger caused him to lose his mind.

"The Flying Pirates are attacking!"

Van der Deiken roared, and his merman underling spoke uncertainly beside him.

"Captain, that's a big shot from the Heberfeller family...we..."

Van der Deiken, who had long been blinded by irrationality, grabbed his underling and snapped his neck.

The brutality of the methods shocked everyone.

"Watatsumi, attack!"

The eighty-meter-tall Watatsumi roared fiercely, and under the command of Vanderdekenen, he launched an attack directly on the Fishman Palace.

Despite his anger, Vanderdeken was well aware of the formidable power of the Heberfeller family.

Especially that person...

An existence that terrifies the world.

But this is the seabed, the territory of the fish-men, where even the strongest must yield.

Just in case, he had the idiot Watatsumi's enormous size distract him while he secretly killed Princess Shirahoshi.

If you can't have it, destroy it; twisted love drives people crazy and violent.

"Boom!"

The earth hummed, and with each step of the massive body that Mianjin took, there was an oppressive feeling of the earth shaking and rocks shattering.

At 80 meters tall, he's truly a moving mountain.

Charlotte's eyes flickered slightly. What an arrogant fellow, acting so blatantly.

What gave that guy the courage? There's never a shortage of ignorant and fearless people like that.

Everyone must pay the price for their arrogance.

However, Charlotte's Observation Haki quickly detected the other party's intention.

"Trying to use the Target-Target Fruit's power to launch a sneak attack? That's quite clever..."

The next second, Charlotte revealed a disdainful smile.

"It's just a pity there aren't many!"

The other party had only heard of it but had never personally experienced the terrifying strength of the world's top experts.

Arrogance and misjudgment are inevitable consequences.

His Observation Haki was locked onto Vanderdeken.

In a flash, Charlotte's large axe flew out of his hand in an instant.

Van der Deiken, taking advantage of the commotion created by Miwatsu, quietly approached the vicinity of the palace.

"Hahaha..."

Thinking he had fooled everyone, Vanderdeken couldn't help but let out a strange laugh, and once again a huge axe appeared in his hand.

He was determined to kill Princess Shirahoshi. Jealousy had clouded his judgment, and with a twisted mindset of wanting to possess her at all costs, he prepared to launch a fatal attack during the chaos.

Just as Vander Decken was about to charge up his Devil Fruit power to launch an attack.

A flash of cold light, as fast as lightning, passed by and magnified in his pupils.

Before van der Deiken could react.

"Pfft~"

With a soft sound, accompanied by a flash of crimson, a somewhat familiar-looking arm slowly flew up.

While wondering...

A piercing pain surged into his mind, and Vanderdeken's gaze went blank until he realized it was his arm.

"Damn it..."

Van der Deiken cursed in fear and anger, and without the slightest hesitation, he endured the excruciating pain and fled for his life.

However, all of this seems somewhat superfluous.

A distorted air door quickly appeared in front of him, and Hariri walked out with a frosty look in his eyes.

"You bastard... after causing such a commotion, you still want to run away?"

Van der Deiken was sweating profusely; only now did he truly feel the fear within him.

He spends most of his time roaming the seabed, and even the Fish-Man Kingdom and Jinbe, one of the Seven Warlords of the Sea, can't do anything about him.

His inflated ego led him to believe that he was invincible in the sea.

But the reality is so cruel.

Before Vanderdeken could react, Hariri had already appeared in front of him at some point.

A large hand rapidly enlarged in his eyes. Van der Deiken realized the danger but had no power to resist, watching helplessly as the other party grabbed his not-so-bright head.

"boom!"

With a loud bang, Van der Deiken was slammed to the ground by Hariri's slap, creating a powerful explosion.

"If the boss wants you to live, then you arrogant bastard will die without a burial place."

Hariri's indifferent voice rang out, showing little emotional fluctuation.

To them, such strength was laughable, like trash. They casually glanced at the completely unconscious Vanderdeken.

Without pausing, he scooped it up and brought it back to Charlotte's side.

Charlotte smiled with satisfaction as she looked at the four-legged fish-man, Vander Decken.

Another Devil Fruit in hand!

Excellent, very good.

"Mitis locked him up!"

"Understood, Your Majesty!"

Metis quickly treated the man's wounds and locked him in the book's cell.

At this moment, Charlotte looked at the bald-headed Watatsumi. She had just temporarily let this guy go in order to lure Vander Decken from the water here.

He was well aware of the destructive power of this 80-meter behemoth, which was more than twice the size of Oz Jr.

Leaving it unchecked won't work.

The next moment...

A terrifying aura surged from Charlotte's body, and an invisible Conqueror's Haki transformed into a streak of red and black lightning that shot through the air.

In the blink of an eye, the blow struck Watatsumi's head.

A piercing scream rang out, the massive figure stiffened, its eyes rolled back, and it swayed and fell to the ground.

"Boom!"

The massive impact crushed buildings, sending dust billowing... and people collapsed and fell asleep on the spot.

A minor accident was easily resolved.

This caused countless fish-men to exclaim with joy, praising the greatness of the Heberfeller family.

Neptune was also incredibly shocked; the visual impact was so powerful that he was left deeply moved for a long time.

Their ardent gazes were practically burning with desire to bring the marriage together immediately.
