Lina beside her smiled softly.
Charlotte looked at Beta seriously and said, "Don't say that this reason is straightforward and true."
Wow, ever since I ate the devil fruit, I seem to have become more clever!
Could it be that devil fruits can also improve IQ?
Charlotte also looked at Beta and said calmly, "Well, you're good at talking nonsense."
The boat moved along the river, and soon a huge port came into view.
The ships coming in and out of the port look quite busy.
Following the guidance of the people at the lighthouse, their ship entered the port and docked smoothly.
"Let's go!"
Charlotte spoke, leaving some people behind, while the rest went to the port and headed towards the bustling streets.
He made a stunning appearance in a handsome outfit, but it didn't cause any waves.
There were so many people wearing strange costumes, but the appearance of Charlotte and his group made it clear that they belonged to the same force.
But it didn't attract anyone else's attention.
No one had ever heard of the Heberfil family, let alone knew them. Moreover, many of the people they knew had been sunk into the sea.
There are simply too many unknown forces here and no one cares.
Charlotte was extremely satisfied with this.
So Charlotte, in a good mood, directly ordered everyone to disband on the spot and let everyone relax and have some fun.
Only Lina accompanied Charlotte for a stroll.
It's not easy to go out to sea and it feels very safe here.
Now that he was safe, Charlotte naturally wanted to experience the unique charm of the world of One Piece.
Pirates come and go, with accents from all over the world, weapons of all kinds, all kinds of strange clothes, tall and short, fat and thin, bald, bald, all kinds of weird hairstyles...
A look of joy and jubilation.
It was the first time since he was born into this world that he saw so many people.
It's a bit sad.
When I become strong enough, will Lati Island see such a magnificent scene in the future?
Charlotte was full of anticipation.
"Charlotte is really beautiful here, and it's just as prosperous as my old home!"
With a look of nostalgia in her eyes, Lina said with sadness in her heart.
"Do you miss home? Lina, if you do, go back and have a look!"
How could a wandering girl with her family and country destroyed not miss her home? Charlotte spoke gently.
Lina's eyes were filled with tears and she shook her head, "Wherever house you are in is right there?"
Everything she once knew had long since disappeared in the flames of war. The new kingdom was no longer familiar and there was no place for her anymore.
Everything that happened in the past only remained in her memory.
From the moment Charlotte saved her from despair, she never wanted to leave him.
Charlotte was stunned and didn't know where to start.
However, he soon revealed a smile.
"Yes! Lina."
“Don’t be sad.”
"In the future, Lati Island will eventually become a prosperous, peaceful and tranquil island, the home we all yearn for."
Lina wiped her tears and looked at Charlotte's sincere and bright smile. Her heart was extremely peaceful and full of confidence. She said with a firm face.
"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."
