One Piece: Establishing a Pirate Family

Page 86

Damn it! Why haven't those people arrived yet?

Hoyle cursed the thugs at the auction house in his heart.

Hoyle struggled desperately to break free from Charlotte's grasp, his feet fidgeting below him.

What he didn't know was that Xia Luo had already dealt with the more than thirty thugs at the auction house.

And what is his deputy looking for?

"Hey! Isn't this Brother Charlie? What are you looking for? Why are you in such a hurry!"

While strolling near the auction house, Jiben suddenly spotted a familiar figure.

Charlie is Mayor Hoyle's assistant, who's always by his side.

Upon seeing Charlie, he couldn't help but rush over to curry favor with him, knowing that such encounters were rare.

Of course, the reason why Kiben fawned over him was because of Mayor Hoyle behind him. If he could get on Mayor Hoyle's good side, wouldn't he be able to soar to great heights?

In this small territory of the Seven Waters City, who wouldn't give him face?

So when he saw Charlie, Kiben ran over excitedly and greeted him.

"you are?"

Charlie looked at the benzene running towards him with a puzzled expression.

“I’m one of Steward Fei’s men, named Kiben. I’m in charge of finding slaves for the auction house. Don’t you remember me? We’ve met before!”

Kiben walked up to Charlie with a fawning expression and said.

Charlie only realized what was going on after hearing what Benzene said.

"Oh! You're the one who's always with Steward Fei! I remember you!"

After Charlie finished speaking, he prepared to hurry outside.

"Brother Charlie, what's wrong? Why are you in such a hurry?"

Seeing Charlie's anxious expression, Kiben quickly stepped forward and asked.

"Something's happened at the auction house. A slave has escaped. The mayor told me to call for help immediately, but where have all the auction house's thugs gone? I can't find them, so I have to go to the city hall to find the sheriff!"

Charlie said this as he walked quickly.

Upon hearing that it was a slave who had escaped, Kiben instantly perked up.

"Isn't this my chance to shine?" With that thought, Kiben hurriedly grabbed Charlie.

"Brother Charlie! You were looking for me! I'm a professional slave catcher. Why are you going to the sheriff instead of me? Isn't that putting the cart before the horse?"

"Iben said under Charlie's unfriendly gaze."

But Charlie's eyes lit up when he heard what Kiben said.

Exactly! Would I be a fool to leave a professional slave catcher unused and go to the sheriff instead?

"Good brother, you're right! Come with me to the auction house and subdue that lawless slave."

Charlie hurriedly grabbed Kiben's hand and headed towards the auction house.

"Wait! No rush! He's just a slave. Call my brothers over here first! They're right there!"

"Ibenzene quickly reassured me."

Charlie felt much more at ease after hearing what Kiben said and nodded.

"Jack's here because he's got something to do!"

Kiben led Charlie to their usual bar and shouted.

"Boss!"

Jack hurriedly led everyone to the side of the bottle and brought them to the side of the benzoin.

"Come on! Let me introduce you. This is Brother Charlie! He's a favorite of the mayor, a big shot in Water Seven, second only to the mayor. You'll call him Brother Charlie from now on."

Kiben pulled Charlie aside and addressed the crowd.

Charlie was very pleased to hear this, but he didn't forget why he came here.

"Brother Jiben! Let's hurry up and get there! There are still quite a few people at the auction. We can't afford to be delayed like this."

Charlie looked at the base benzene anxiously and said.

"Okay! Big brother, let's go right now!"

Then, Jiben waved his hand and led a large group of his men toward the auction house.

At a glance, there were sixty or seventy people, each carrying weapons; these were slave hunters from the area surrounding the auction house.

In order to impress Charlie, Kiben brought everyone along this time.

"What are you taking us to do, boss?"

A one-eyed human trafficker wielding a long knife grabbed Jack and asked him a question.

Jack looked around and then lowered his voice.

"It seems there's been a problem at the auction. A slave has escaped and is causing chaos. Our boss wants to impress Mayor Hoyle, so he's taking all of us there."

"Oh okay!"

The one-eyed man nodded, then his eyes lit up.

He also wanted to make a good impression on Mayor Hoyle, so that he could leave a good impression on the mayor, which would only be a good thing for him.

Many people shared his thoughts, and each of them walked towards the auction with their heads held high and weapons in hand.

Inside the auction house.

Charlotte withdrew her Conqueror's Haki, and now no one in the auction house dared to utter a single word.

"Ah~!"

Charlotte stepped on Hoyle, crushing his legs bit by bit.

As Charlotte's foot repeatedly ground against Mayor Hoyle's leg, no one dared to utter a sound.

He was afraid that the madman would look at him.

That's right, these people already see Charlotte as a madman.

It was so bloody!

"Ah! Please! Please spare me! I'm willing to make amends!"

Hoyle, covered in blood, begged for mercy.

Just moments before, when he had admitted to being the owner of the auction house, Charlotte suddenly raised her foot and crushed his kneecap.

Even when he was crushed, he could clearly hear the sound of his bones shattering.

"Heh! If I spare you, who will spare those poor people you sold out!"

After Charlotte met this man named Hoyle, he clearly saw all the evil things he had done.

Although Charlotte doesn't usually like to meddle in other people's business, if something happens that makes him feel uneasy, he will intervene, otherwise his mind won't be at peace!

"what!"

Hoyle cried out in pain once again.

His hand was crushed and mangled by Charlotte.

The bones were shattered and stuck together with the flesh.

The intense pain threw his mind into a state of confusion.

I felt like I was going to faint, but the intense pain kept me wide awake.

Upon witnessing this scene, Count Red finally understood how Charlotte got her nickname, "Blood Swordsman."

This guy is a bloodthirsty pervert.

Although he himself is also a bit of a pervert, often able to eavesdrop on other people's inner thoughts, compared to Charlotte, he is nothing.

Bang!

Squeak!
