Pirates' Legend Family

"Well, it will definitely happen."

Charlotte looked at Lina, who had regained her fighting spirit, and said softly, "Don't cry anymore. Lina doesn't look good when she cries."

Lina's heart skipped a beat, her face turned red, and she smiled, "Charlotte, I'll be embarrassed if you do this."

Charlotte suddenly felt like her brain short-circuited. Is this what I meant?

"Well, that's good."

But seeing that Lina was already happy, I didn't think too much about it.

"Let's go, I'll take you to eat delicious food!"

As he said this, he waved his fist, and with great vigor, he dragged Lina towards the popular food stall.

on board!

In the medical room!

Douglas Barrett looked at the surroundings and the wound that had been wrapped in white gauze vigilantly, seeming a little surprised.

"Am I being rescued?"

"Ah! You're awake!"

When Douglas Barrett was puzzled, a female medical staff who was about to check the injury said in surprise.

"Lie down quickly, you are badly injured!"

The female medical staff spoke anxiously.

Barrett didn't even object and just lay down quietly.

Soon the female medical staff finished checking his body and couldn't help but exclaimed: "You are amazing. You have recovered most of the serious injuries."

"By the way, my name is Jillian, what's yours?"

Barrett did not feel disgusted by Gillian's questioning, but instead had an indescribable feeling. So he said awkwardly, "My name is Douglas Barrett."

"Yeah, what a cool name."

Jillian was warm and cheerful, and didn't feel like a stranger at all. She was really familiar with people.

"You saved me?"

In response to Barrett's question, Gillian shook her head and nodded.

"Yes and no!"

After saying this, he counted on his fingers with a serious look on his face.

"It was Beta who brought you back from the sea when you were unconscious."

"And Boss Charlotte has ordered that you receive full treatment."

"As for me, I'll naturally be the last person to treat you."

Hearing such a rigorous answer and looking at Gillian's particularly serious expression, Barrett didn't know what to say for a moment?

"So...what are they like?"

Barrett asked nervously.

"You are a very good person. I was also rescued from the slave ship by Boss Charlotte and his men."

"You know about slave ships!"

"..."

Barrett's eyes lit up when he heard what Gillian said. Even though Gillian talked incessantly like a microphone, he didn't feel disgusted at all.

It gives me a sense of peace of mind.

The two of them started chatting slowly like this.

Chapter 22 There is such a terrible place

It's been three days.

I have been in the island food city for three days.

The original target, Saga Lido, disappeared without a sound... Oh no, to be exact, he disappeared.

Charlotte sat in the captain's room, leaning back and feeling very annoyed!

Then he sat up straight, "Tell me! Is there any way to find him?"

For a moment, Beta and Barrett, who temporarily joined in order to repay a favor, were stumped.

When Charlotte heard the news that Barrett had joined the Heberfil family, she was in complete disbelief.

Of course, there was no reason for Charlotte to refuse such a potential stock.

But it was foolish of him to ask for the opinions of these two people, as they were two people who only knew how to fight with their muscles.

So when he asked this question, he felt a little regretful.

Looking at the two silent people, Charlotte tacitly did not ask any further questions.

He really needs a wise subordinate now.

For example… Ivan the Great and Clever.

At this moment, Lina, wearing a black women's V-neck short suit, black shorts, and a black tight cape, walked in.

The long and straight white legs are quite eye-catching.

"Charlotte, I heard that Mr. Saga Lido disappeared five days ago."

Lina spoke slowly.

Charlotte was delighted, "Lina, can you continue?"

Lina nodded.

"I used Hill Palen's connections to find Saga Lido, who disappeared into the civilian area."

Hill Palen?

He has a shitty network of connections. Needless to say, this is the information about the warehouse king, Kiberson.

Charlotte had to admit that these underground forces with no clear background did have strong intelligence capabilities.

Their power should not be underestimated and their intelligence work is amazing.

Unexpectedly, in the end, I still have to rely on Lina. Men are unreliable.

"Civilian area?"

Charlotte pondered for a moment, and he seemed to have a very bad feeling.

Whenever the One Piece world comes into contact with civilian areas, there are almost always inexplicable troubles.

Charlotte shook her head, put away her chaotic thoughts, stood up and walked outside.

He had certainly considered this matter.

He didn't have time to waste here. Now that he had a clear location, he naturally needed to go there in person to understand the situation and get the matter done as quickly as possible.

"Beta, you and Barrett, watch over the boat and wait for us to come back."

Beta was startled and said, "Boss, don't worry, the boat is still there."

"Yeah!" Although Beta is a hot-blooded and battle-minded reckless man, he has never been perfunctory about what he has been told to do.

Barrett, who had a low presence at the side, also straightened up, said nothing, and looked a little arrogant.

Charlotte didn't pay attention to these details and was focused on finding Saga Lido.

Looking at Charlotte and Lina who hurriedly left, Beta breathed a sigh of relief.

"Are you afraid of Mr. Charlotte?"

Barrett was a little confused. In his opinion, Charlotte gave him a really good impression. He was a strong, low-key and kind person.

Beta couldn't help but tremble in his heart when facing Barrett. He was young, still young. Who could understand the pain of training under Boss Charlotte when he disagreed with someone?

Sooner or later, you will cry.

So he said calmly, "What do you know? Is this called fear? This is called respect. You know nothing, you little brat!"

Barrett's eyes widened. He hated being treated as a child. He roared, "Damn it, how many times have I told you that I'm not a brat? My name is Douglas Barrett."

"Got it little brat!"

Beta looked indifferent and said while pinching his ears.

Barrett's face flushed, and he roared angrily, "I'm not a brat, I'm Dagoras Barrett."

I was so excited that my mouth was drooping.

"Oh, little brat, what's your name?"

"You bastard, I'm Barrett!"

"What thunder?"

"Barrett!"

"What's special?"

……

Barrett was furious. If he could beat this guy now, he would make Beta regret coming into this world.

"Hey, brat! Brat!"

The corner of Barrett's eye twitched, and he felt terrible. He turned away angrily, not paying any more attention to this neurotic guy.

"Hey, hey, hey, don't go! Are you angry? I'll treat you to some meat."

Beta hurriedly chased after him, with a playful look on his face. He didn't look mature at all and looked like he deserved a beating.

……

Island Food City, District 54, Civilian District.

The old, crowded, dilapidated and short buildings are hard to imagine.

Such a terrible place exists in this bustling island food city.

In a dark alley.

A boy collapsed to the ground. He looked at the dirty half piece of bread in his arms, and a smile from the heart appeared on his scarred face.

That smile was filled with indescribable charm.

"That's great, Medea. I don't have to go hungry today!"

The boy endured the pain and stood up tremblingly.

He carefully put the piece of bread in his hand into his arms as if it were a treasure.

After cleaning the blood off his face, he limped out of this dark place.

He walked very slowly and with great effort, but he walked with great determination!

Soon they left this dark place and turned into another even darker, more secluded and narrower place!

It would be more appropriate to call this place a slum rather than a civilian area.

40% of the island’s indigenous population is gathered here, but the area occupied by the entire “civilian area” is less than 1/30 of the area of ​​the island’s food city.

This is a place that is so narrow that it feels a bit suffocating.

But this is indeed the boy's home!

The exhausted boy limped along for about half an hour.

Finally, he came to a house that looked extremely shabby even in the "commoner area".

Rather than saying it is a house, it is more like a small nest built in a half-collapsed room with discarded cardboard boxes.

The boy took a deep breath, patted his cheeks to make himself look excited, then smiled brightly and lifted the rag covering the house...

"Brother...you, you're back...ahem..."
