One Piece: Establishing a Pirate Family

"Why? Is it because of the land? Or something else? Why are people unwilling to live together peacefully?"

Elena looked at Charlotte with a puzzled expression.

But Charlotte just shrugged.

"I don't know why. Maybe it's because of interests, or maybe someone is stirring things up behind the scenes, or maybe it's for some other reason. In short, there are many reasons."

Charlotte shrugged and said.

Then he noticed that the people around him had suddenly fallen silent, which made Xia Luo look in one direction immediately.

At the end of the street, a middle-aged man in a black military uniform, wearing a military cap, walked towards him with a young man beside him.

The young man was the captain who had stopped him at the port earlier, and it was he who recognized him.

After the general walked into the street, the slight bumping and knocking sounds that had been heard on the street instantly disappeared.

Everyone looked at the general with fear.

But Charlotte could see more than just fear in these people's eyes; she could also see hatred.

Charlotte subtly pulled Elena and Panis, who was following behind, to her side, raising an eyebrow as she looked at the newcomer.

When the general arrived in front of Charlotte, he immediately gave her a noble salute.

"Honorable Mr. Charlotte, welcome to Jarzburg with your wife! Jarzburg welcomes you. I am General Don Sitney, the garrison commander of this island. You may call me General Don!"

Charlotte nodded as she listened to the general's self-introduction.

I guess he came here because he was afraid I would damage the island.

Seeing that Charlotte didn't seem impatient, the general named Don breathed a sigh of relief.

He fears most encountering those arrogant pirates who don't respect anyone.

These kinds of pirates often act according to their own whims and have no idea what the other person is thinking.

"I wonder what brings Mr. Charlotte to our Jarzburg?"

Don didn't continue with the polite formalities and went straight to the point.

As a general, those were the most polite words he could say!

Charlotte raised an eyebrow!

"What! Why should I report to you what I'm doing?"

Charlotte looked at Don and said.

Tang En's brows twitched as he watched, making him feel as if he might die at any moment.

Suppressing his panic, he forced a slight smile onto his face.

"No, no! Please forgive my curiosity! I was being presumptuous!"

Don bowed again to apologize, and Douglas, who was beside him, hurriedly followed suit, bowing as well.

"That's enough! I'm just here to replenish my supplies and rest for a few days. You don't need to worry about us. As long as no one provokes us, nothing will happen here!"

Charlotte waved her hand and looked at Don.

Upon hearing this, Don cursed inwardly.

Is the threat that nothing will happen if we don't provoke them?

Fine! Even if it's a threat, he can only accept it.

Who told him he had no power to resist?

"Don't worry! Everything here will satisfy you, and no villains will cause trouble here!"

Although I was internally cursing, I still smiled on the surface.

Charlotte simply nodded.

Then, as if he had just thought of something, he seemed to realize something.

Looking at Don.

"I need your cooperation on something, is that alright?"

"Of course, no problem! I'd be happy to serve you."

Tang En forced a smile and said thoughtfully.

Chapter 112 Searching for Barrett

Without even considering it, and without listening to anything Charlotte said, Don agreed immediately.

Charlotte was taken aback by his quick agreement, but then burst into laughter.

"Hahahaha! Great! I love how efficient and decisive you are!"

Charlotte began to praise Don.

Tang En forced a smile onto his usually serious face.

Although it looks a bit ugly, Charlotte doesn't care about that.

Don couldn't help but curse inwardly.

Even if I disagree, can you let me go?

"Do you have a captain named Douglas under your command?"

Charlotte got straight to the point, looking at Don and asking.

Before Don could react to Charlotte's words, Captain Douglas, who was standing next to her, broke out in a cold sweat.

Why is he asking this? The captain called Douglas is just like himself in the whole military camp, isn't he?

Did I offend him?

In an instant, my forehead and back were covered in cold sweat.

"Douglas?"

Don muttered something to himself, then opened his eyes wide and looked at the young man beside him.

Charlotte noticed Tang En's unusual movement instantly.

He definitely knows.

Looking at the squad leader beside him, Tang En couldn't help but think to himself.

Did he offend Charlotte? Otherwise, why would he ask about Douglas? Isn't the captain next to him named Douglas the same person?

If he offends Charlotte, he won't be lenient.

“Mr. Charlotte! Isn’t this a coincidence? The Captain Douglas you’re looking for is the one right next to me.”

Without saying a word, Don pulled Douglas in front of him and placed him in front of Charlotte.

Charlotte was slightly taken aback when she saw the trembling, extremely nervous person.

What a coincidence! I never expected him to be Douglas. It was all so easy.

If you try to find Barrett without any clear goal, you might not even find anything after a year.

But once Douglas's captain was found, everything became simple.

As a child, Barrett was recruited into the Boy Scouts as a suicide squad by a captain named Douglas. Once you found him, everything would be easy.

Thinking of this, Charlotte couldn't help but smile as she looked at Captain Douglas.

"Captain Douglas, I heard you have a Boy Scout under your command, is that right?"

Charlotte looked at Douglas and asked.

Douglas, who was initially tense, was slightly taken aback after hearing Charlotte's inexplicable remark.

But then he nodded subconsciously, because being a Boy Scout wasn't anything special or shameful in the military; many captains and generals secretly trained these Boy Scouts for their own use.

After all, these Boy Scouts may be young, but if you give them a gun, they can still kill an adult man.

Moreover, these Boy Scouts can produce unexpected results on the battlefield, and can also serve as suicide squads to create an opening for the main force.

"I'm looking for someone! Maybe one of your Boy Scouts. Can I go check on them?"

Charlotte stared at Douglas and said.

His eyes conveyed a tone that suggested there was no need to refuse.

This left Douglas speechless, as he was about to brush it off.

General Don was quick enough to agree on Douglas's behalf.

"Of course, no problem! We can go anytime!"

As he spoke, Don gave Douglas a wink.

This made Douglas realize what was happening, but then he broke out in a cold sweat.

I actually wanted to refuse! Have I lost my mind?

"My lord! Please follow me!"
