The Legendary Family of One Piece

Chapter 76 seems to make this sense.

The Heberfeller, in the captain's cabin.

Charlotte looked bitter and resentful, and her spirits seemed to have waned.

The Golden Lion is inhuman!

A bounty of 150 million Berries! Suddenly having an extra 20 million Berries on his bounty was truly unbearable for him!

"Don't be so down, Charlotte," Lina comforted her. "This red wine is really good."

After saying that, he handed her a glass of expensive red wine.

However, Charlotte had no interest at all at this moment.

It may seem like only a minor increase in the bounty, but there are almost no exceptions to this; it's like a one-way street with no turning back.

They either die, are arrested, or fight tooth and nail for the throne of the Four Emperors.

It's just a little sad to think about the fate of the Four Emperors later on!

This is not what he wanted.

Too dangerous.

There is only one exception to the amnesty rule, and that is the future Shichibukai system!

But that's also an uncertain thing!

Later, when the Seven Warlords system was abolished, the bounties skyrocketed, making it anything but secure.

Moreover, given the location of Lati Island, if he dared to do that, he would probably be attacked by big shots from the New World the very next day.

"Lina, you don't understand. For us, a high bounty is not a lucky thing."

Lina leaned in to listen, and asked with utmost elegance, "Why?"

Charlotte glanced at Lina and sighed, "How pathetic!" No one seemed to realize the gravity of the situation.

So he continued.

"Because the biggest power on the high seas is the navy, which poses a great threat to us."

Lina nodded, completely agreeing with Charlotte's point of view.

"However, similarly, as Lati Island develops and becomes more prosperous, other pirates will inevitably set their sights on it. Without the deterrent effect of a high bounty, countless pirates would probably flock to attack Lati Island!"

Lina spoke very seriously.

This left Charlotte speechless.

Charlotte subconsciously tilted her head and began to think.

That seems to be the logic!

But something just feels off, like something's not quite right!

No! No! No!

Charlotte denied it repeatedly.

The key issue lies in his identity. Even if he wasn't a pirate, he could still intimidate pirates. He didn't need to be tied to this broken ship of the pirate group at all.

On the contrary, if he becomes a pirate, he will be targeted by both pirates and the Navy.

this is the key of the problem.

Even after figuring out the key point, Charlotte stopped explaining.

Because spilled water cannot be gathered up again!

He's now on a pirate ship and has no chance of escaping.

Unless the World Government collapses and the Navy is disbanded.

But this idea is probably harder than climbing to heaven!

For the time being, it's... the kind of situation that's really unsolvable.

Leaving aside the Navy, just consider the World Government's terrifying military power: the World Government's intelligence agency CP, the Five Elders, the Knights of God, Im...

Even how many more cards they have up their sleeves remains unknown to the world.

Charlotte was lost in thought, but his priority right now was to get back to Lati Island. After all, if he didn't go back soon, Shiki the Golden Lion would pull off another crazy stunt.

That was truly a great tragedy.

boom!

Suddenly, a huge cannon shot rang out outside.

Barrett rushed in very quickly.

"Captain, we are under fire from naval warships."

Naval warships?

Charlotte frowned. A naval warship? That shouldn't be happening!

They neither flew a pirate flag nor did anything outrageous.

How could this happen?

We can't just say we attacked their ship because it seemed suspicious! That's a bit too un-naval-like!

Could it be that his pirate identity was exposed, which led to the attack?

It is highly likely that the Navy has always maintained a firm stance against pirates.

Troublesome, so troublesome!

Charlotte quickly came to the deck, and one of her underlings promptly handed her a pair of binoculars.

Looking through the binoculars, one could see a large, simple blue sketch of a seagull spreading its wings printed on the white sails of the ship, with MARINE below it.

Needless to say, this is the standard naval emblem.

The naval soldiers on the deck moved swiftly, and the one leading them was probably a naval lieutenant commander wearing a white cloak of justice.

Charlotte breathed a sigh of relief; thankfully, they weren't the renowned naval commanders she remembered.

Of course, Charlotte wasn't prepared to fight the other side head-on and quickly retreated.

Although he didn't take a major seriously, once he destroyed the enemy's warship, the enemy would call for reinforcements.

That scene was anything but fun.

"boom!"

A shell landed on the sea in front of the deck of the Hibernian, creating a huge wave.

The crowd was instantly drenched, including Charlotte, who was lost in thought.

"Damn it, the Navy, they've gone too far!"

Charlotte broke through his defenses and said fiercely.

"Go, bring the cannonballs over."

The henchmen beside him sprang into action, and Xia Luo's peaceful state of mind vanished without a trace.

Such a big accident happened in a moment of distraction.

A moment later, the entire crate of shells was brought up.

"The Navy brought this on themselves."

Weighing the shell in his hand.

With a "whoosh," the black cannonball flew out rapidly.

With a loud "boom," a violent explosion occurred on one of the decks of the naval warship, sending plumes of black smoke into the air.

Charlotte showed no mercy, launching shell after shell.

"Boom!"

A series of explosions echoed throughout the naval warship, plunging it into complete chaos.

Once Charlotte had fired the last shell, the naval warship went completely out of service, bursting into flames, and it was only a matter of time before it sank.

Charlotte was extremely satisfied with this situation. Why not use a knife?

Wouldn't that easily expose one's identity?

"Boss, should we go over there and completely wipe out the last remaining forces of the Navy?"

Beta asked with great interest, eager to show off his skills and make a name for himself.

"What a mess!"

Charlotte glared at Beta, noticing that Beta had recently become arrogant, even a little eccentric.

Instead of running away, rushing in now would be tantamount to causing trouble, wouldn't it?

They clearly haven't experienced the essence of guerrilla warfare; they only know how to charge.

"Let them fend for themselves, we're retreating. Naval reinforcements are coming."

Charlotte rejected Beta's suggestion. He dared not waste any time; the other side must have already requested help. If they were to get entangled with the subsequent naval forces, it would be a real problem.

That's the advantage of having powerful backers. If I can't beat them, I can call in reinforcements. It's a bit shameless, but who can say anything about it?

Might makes right. Do you really think you can teach your enemy a lesson with words and platitudes?

They're probably dead beyond dead.

He might be lucky enough to pull off something with the protagonist's halo, but he doesn't have that kind of luck!

Engaging in a war of attrition with the navy on the high seas is by no means a wise move.

Soon, under Charlotte's orders, the Heberfeller fled without hesitation.

Shortly afterward, two naval warships appeared simultaneously in the area where the battle had just taken place.

Seeing the thick smoke billowing from the tattered and mangled naval vessel, the two naval lieutenants quickly ordered the sailors on board to launch a rescue operation.

One of the naval lieutenant commanders said, "Pirates are getting crazier and crazier these days."

Just look at the miserable state of this naval warship to understand.

They are absolutely audacious outlaws, and should never be forgiven.
