One Piece: Establishing a Pirate Family

The previous nausea vanished completely.

These fruits aren't particularly amazing, but they're not bad either.

Two banana-shaped, one pear-shaped, three cantaloupe-shaped, and two apple-shaped.

Zoan type, Snake-Snake Fruit, Titanoboa form!

Zoan type, Cat-Cat Fruit, Saber-toothed Tiger form.

Zoan type, Dragon-Dragon Fruit, True Diplodon form.

Zoan type, Bird Fruit, Archaeopteryx form.

Paramecia Type: Paper-Paper Fruit!

Paramecia-type Jacket Fruit!

Paramecia-type Thorn-Thorn Fruit!

Paramecia-type Devil Fruit: Ton-Pound Fruit!

Of the eight Devil Fruits, except for the Jacket-Jacket Fruit which she was dissatisfied with, the others were quite to Charlotte's liking.

Especially those Ancient Zoan Devil Fruits, which were simply beyond Charlotte's imagination.

They are all incredibly powerful Ancient Species fruits, but thinking about it, it seems like none of the Ancient Species fruits are weak.

Surprisingly, the World Government didn't try anything funny with the Devil Fruits.

Charlotte had thought the World Government would try some tricks with Devil Fruits to annoy her, but they weren't this honest, which made Charlotte a little embarrassed.

It seems the world government isn't as bad as the rumors suggest!

Actually, Charlotte was overthinking it. The Five Elders were afraid that Charlotte was up to something and was trying to stall for time. In order to prevent Charlotte from playing any tricks, they ultimately did not touch the Devil Fruit.

Charlotte put away the Devil Fruits, placing them all in a safe for safekeeping, intending to give them to her children when they grew up.

Charlotte is a very good father; he has already planned out his child's future.

Chapter 231 Swordsmen

The year was 1490 in the Haiyuan calendar.

A year has passed in the blink of an eye. Apart from making a deal with the World Government at the beginning of the year, I haven't gone out at all, and I've truly become a complete shut-in.

However, the only thing that could make Charlotte happy was...

Elena and the other five women are pregnant again.

One shot, six blasts!

That's something Charlotte can be proud of.

During this time, the Rockefeller Pirates were consolidating their newly acquired territory.

Those islands are rich in resources.

Various mineral resources were continuously transported to Camee Island, further accelerating the island's development.

This leads to a shortage of manpower.

The Rockefeller Pirates now roam the seas every day, hunting down pirates to serve as their laborers.

When faced with tough opponents, Barrett will personally take action.

The Rockefeller Pirates have now grown to a size of four thousand.

It doubled.

As the territory expanded, various mineral resources became increasingly abundant, leading to a steady increase in Cameo Island's tax revenue.

The tax revenue from one month is now enough to support an army of four thousand.

That's right! It's an army. Although Charlotte still operates under the banner of pirates, internally it has gradually transformed from a pirate force into a kingdom.

They began to consciously train their subordinates.

Furthermore, these subordinates were all carefully selected talents by Charlotte.

Most of them joined because they admired Charlotte's reputation and were drawn to him as the world's greatest swordsman.

The rest were rescued in recent years from the maritime slave trade.

Most of these people had lost their families and homes. After being rescued by Charlotte and taken to Cameo Island, some of them joined the Rockefeller Pirates.

These people were the main force that joined the Rockefeller Pirates.

Unlike Shiki the Golden Lion, he didn't recruit pirates everywhere, as long as they were pirates.

Now, with the Navy gradually reducing its surveillance, Shiki the Golden Lion's Flying Pirates have grown rapidly, like a wild horse unleashed.

His thirteen division commanders are all notorious pirates in the New World with bounties of hundreds of millions.

This allowed his power to gradually expand to the center of the New World, bordering Charlotte Linlin's seas.

For some reason, there has been no conflict between the two sides so far.

The Whitebeard Pirates have also seen a surge in strength over the past year or two, acquiring countless adopted sons and affiliated pirate crews in the latter half of the New World.

His forces have also successfully exceeded 10,000.

He officially joined the club of a 10,000-strong pirate crew.

Keep in mind that there are only three people under his command with a strength exceeding ten thousand.

One is Shiki the Golden Lion, another is King John the Silver Axe Grand Alliance who lives off the Rocks Treasure, and the third is Edward Newgate the Whitebeard.

Apart from these three, no other pirate crew has more than 10,000 members.

The only one recently is Charlotte.

He has 4,000 combat personnel under his command, and these are only the subordinates led by the squad leaders.

In addition to the troops personally led by Charlotte, besides the four or five hundred maids, Charlotte has recently selected young and talented pirates from various squads and incorporated them into his own exclusive command.

There are a total of 500 people.

They were all swordsmen, led by five sword masters capable of unleashing flying slashes.

These are the elite of the Rockefeller Pirates.

They are known as the strongest swordsman group.

Everyone here was handpicked by Charlotte.

And it is led by those who have been promoted to the rank of Sword Master.

These swordsmen had joined Charlotte's ranks two or three years ago, and under Charlotte's careful guidance, they had finally advanced from swordsmen to sword masters.

This is something that everyone envies.

A swordsman! A one-in-a-million existence.

These five swordsmen are Dick Roy.

Brian Turner.

Andy Nilsson.

Boris Hodge.

And Elvis Lauel.

Elvis Lauer was the rear admiral who surrendered to Esdeath during the naval battle.

After being taken prisoner and imprisoned in a labor camp, Esdeath rescued her from the camp.

Esdeath remained resentful because the previous battle had never truly ended.

Originally, Lauer did not want to fight Esdeath because he knew that Esdeath was the eldest daughter of the Rockefeller family, and there would be no benefit in winning against her.

On the contrary, it would offend those who wanted to curry favor with Esdeath or the Rockefeller family.

After all, it's easier to see the King of Hell than to deal with his underlings, isn't it?

However, after hearing that Esdeath would ask her father to spare him if he won, he was deeply moved.

Lauer readily agreed to the fight.

Nothing is more important than freedom.

The two sides fought another battle, which attracted a large crowd.

Even the bored Charlotte went to watch the spectacle.

During the battle, Esdeath continued to display her extremely cunning swordsmanship, dazzling the onlookers.

But Lauer was never hurt.

Lauer wielded his greatsword with sweeping, powerful strokes.

The immense power prevented Esdeath from getting close.

This made Esdeath increasingly impatient as the fight progressed.

But rushing things will only lead to trouble.
