"That's good. I'll take you there."
Then he stood up and walked in one direction.
Charlotte and the others naturally followed Dahl and headed towards the ruins.
Not long after.
The ruins of a vast manor come into view, with broken walls and desolate and lonely scenery, which is enough to show that this place was once rich and prosperous.
Charlotte slowly came to a huge black stone tablet.
The mottled cracks and some blurred words tell of the ruthlessness of time.
Charlotte carefully distinguished...
"Yukshiel!"
“It’s actually Youkeshier.”
His mind buzzed. He had read about [Yukshiel] in a book.
This is a terrifying family that is said to have existed for more than two hundred years. It was once so powerful and glorious that it attracted the attention of the whole world.
A family that was known as the king of arms and commerce more than two hundred years ago.
One of the reasons why Charlotte established the Heberfeld family was that she was inspired by the legendary story of this family.
It’s a pity that for some unknown reason, the [Yukeshir] family disappeared completely.
There are many different opinions about the reasons. Some say that the Yukshil family triggered an attack by powerful pirates, some say that they encountered an unimaginable curse, and some say that the Yukshil family was hit because they came into contact with the "truth about the missing 100 years of history."
There are many different opinions about the reasons, and I don’t know whether they are true or not.
But one thing is certain, that is, most of the huge wealth of the Yukshil family was plundered.
The biggest beneficiary among them is Rocks D. Zibek, who wanted to become the "King of the World" and even the World Government had to deal with him with caution. Because of his heinous crimes, he was erased from the world and history.
Charlotte had never imagined that there would be a hidden base of the Yukshil family here.
Unfortunately, it had also been destroyed long ago, and ultimately could not escape the disaster of family demise.
But...if the treasure is really related to the [Yukshil] family, even if it is only a small amount of wealth, it would be a huge fortune.
Thinking of this, Charlotte could no longer restrain herself and took action.
Chapter 14 This is simply inhumane
Chapter 14 This is simply inhumane
On the other side of the island, a pirate ship with a pirate flag over 60 meters long slowly appeared.
"Captain Lip, we're here." The pirate boy next to him said excitedly.
The captain, with thick short light blue hair, wearing a pirate cloak, exposing his chest, and holding a cigarette in his mouth, laughed.
"Haha, guys, log in and go treasure hunting!"
As Captain Lip finished speaking, the pirates roared wildly and rushed towards the island like mad dogs.
……
"Boom!"
With a flying slash from Charlotte, the ruins were cut into pieces in an instant, leaving a mess.
The group searched for more than two hours but still found nothing.
Charlotte simply plows the ground with slashes to find treasure.
He just didn't believe that he wouldn't be able to find the treasure even if he turned the place upside down.
The main reason is that there is a shortage of manpower, so we have no choice but to resort to this last resort.
Simple and brutal!
"Found it, there is an underground passage here!"
Suddenly, a younger brother shouted excitedly from the place where Charlotte had just slashed.
Charlotte dodged and approached in an instant.
It was a hidden, half-collapsed underground passage, with a heavy iron door vaguely visible blocking the bottom.
"Brothers, take action."
Charlotte yelled, and his younger brothers excitedly came from all directions and started clearing the rubble in the passage.
After a moment, the complete passage came into view.
The unique logo of the Yukshil family can be clearly seen on the iron gate.
Charlotte half-knelt and whispered.
"Itsword style, wind-slashing, round dance."
In an instant, several blade beams flashed, and the heavy iron door turned directly into scattered iron blocks.
Charlotte stepped in, and Beta followed closely behind.
Passing through a corridor that was obviously artificially excavated, a huge underground space comes into view.
Treasure chests came into view, along with large pieces of antique paintings and gold ornaments stacked up in an elaborate display of jewels and precious stones.
Charlotte's heart began to beat violently.
This... is simply inhumane.
Especially in the center, there is a whole cube of golden bricks piled up.
Charlotte swore that he had never seen so much money in his life.
It is worthy of being the treasure of the once famous [Ukshir] family. Even if it is only a small part of it, it is enough to shock the world.
"Boss...we've become rich, how much meat can we buy with this!"
"???"
Charlotte looked at the excited Beta and said, "Wow, with so much money, you only thought about eating. That's not bad."
Without wasting any time, he quickly asked his younger brothers to count and organize the items and take them all away.
The busy little brothers were all in high spirits, feeling light-hearted due to the huge surprise.
Passionate and enthusiastic.
Charlotte was strolling alone when a small and exquisite treasure chest inlaid with pearlescent gems caught his attention.
"Click!"
Open it gently.
This is……?
Devil Fruit!
Charlotte was extremely surprised. This was the first time he had seen a devil fruit with his own eyes. There was no doubt about the curly spiral shape.
Treasures from the sea!
It's a pity that Charlotte doesn't know what this fruit is. After all, he has never come across a devil fruit illustration.
Although some devil fruit abilities are related to their appearance, for example, the famous surgery fruit is heart-shaped, and the flower fruit is in the shape of flowers...
The prerequisite is that you know what kind of fruit it is. Otherwise, a heart-shaped or flower-shaped devil fruit would have absolutely no ability.
And can you imagine that the Bubble Fruit is the image of a cantaloupe? There is no devil fruit illustration for that kind of fruit, so there is no point in guessing it.
There are many examples like this.
Just like the fruit in front of him, Charlotte had no idea.
Even if it is the worst devil fruit in the animal series, it is worth 100 million berries, so Charlotte is very satisfied with such a harvest.
Put it away carefully.
The harvest this time was an unexpected surprise.
After a long time, Charlotte frowned, and his observation Haki sensed that an enemy was approaching.
Without any hesitation, Charlotte gave everyone some instructions and went towards the enemy alone.
Soon a group of pirates appeared in his sight.
In order to avoid encountering strong men, Charlotte had carefully studied the pirate bounty order.
He just happened to have an impression of the person in front of him.
The captain of the Lip Pirates, Pola Lip, has a bounty of 168 million Baileys and is the user of the Parahuman Cold Air Fruit...
Charlotte narrowed his eyes slightly. This could be considered a powerful pirate. A bounty of 100 million was not weak.
Oh, what a hassle!
His observation Haki was able to instantly sense the other party's disgusting evil thoughts.
Charlotte didn't waste any words and started to slash as soon as they met.
The flying slash, which was more than ten meters long, instantly cut a distance of hundreds of meters, leaving behind a terrifying gully.
Sure enough, this group of pirates was not killed instantly by himself.
Suddenly a man jumped out and rushed in front of him and blocked his attack with a pair of fists.
Although he was also injured, he still managed to stop it successfully, which made Charlotte feel a little melancholy.
Let the group of pirates on the opposite side run up.
Charlotte fights against the [Lip Pirates] alone, and he needs to destroy them here.
Pirates never live up to their name of pirates.
When they were still dozens of meters away from him, many pirates opened fire.
Naturally, Charlotte didn't take these shells seriously and dodged them easily. The bullets couldn't touch him at all.
Under Charlotte's observation Haki, all attacks are invisible.
