One Piece: Legendary Family

Chapter 11: Future Planning

The original plan was successfully completed, so there was no reason to stay there any longer. Charlotte ordered the return to Ratti Island.

This time, the giant Dahl was also traveling with them, having joined Charlotte's group to start a new life.

Not only was he an excellent fighter, but also a powerful workforce.

In the captain's cabin.

Charlotte felt relaxed and quite calm.

Although the treasure hunt had some minor setbacks, the results were extraordinary.

The treasures filled three large ships, an enormous and incalculable amount.

The volume of work was so great that it couldn't be accurately counted on the spot; it would be necessary to return to Ratti Island for a complete inventory.

The most valuable items were the Devil Fruit, whose power was still unknown, and the notes on Armament Haki found among the treasures.

Looking at the small box containing the Devil Fruit on the table, Charlotte felt very happy.

Charlotte took out an old notebook from his pocket, full of training methods.

He opened it and began to read it carefully.

The training methods and experiences written there were very complete and detailed.

Taking notes is really a good habit worth praising.

Charlotte read all the training methods for Armament Haki.

When he finished, he was amazed.

Armament Haki, undoubtedly one of the three types of Haki, not only can increase defense but also become offensive power.

The difference in the strength of Armament Haki depends on physique, talent, and other individual factors...

After reading everything, Charlotte closed the notebook satisfied.

It wasn't suitable to practice on the ship, so he would have to wait until they reached Ratti Island to start intense training.

As he left the room, he saw Dahl, whose body was like a wall, sitting on the deck.

These ships were definitely too small for the size of a giant.

Moreover, giants have a very long life, normally living up to about 300 years. Compared to that, Dahl was still a teenager, which meant he would continue to grow.

That race is incredible!

At sunset, the fleet finally arrived at the port of Ratti Island.

"Ivan, look at the fleet, boss Charlotte has returned."

In the port, Ivan and his companions waved their hands.

As they approached, Ivan didn't even have time to speak.

A huge shadow fell over them.

The gigantic body of Dahl attracted all the gazes, filled with surprise, fear, and awe.

Ivan only felt sweat on his forehead and chills on his back; this guy's presence was overwhelming, and he could barely speak.

"B-boss, is... this?"

Charlotte looked at Ivan, who seemed quite scared, and found it a bit amusing.

"This is our new member, the giant Dahl."

Ivan, realizing it, murmured, "This is incredible!"

Charlotte didn't pay him much attention and gave Ivan some instructions.

"By the way, this time each member who went out will receive a reward of 100,000 berries, and the officers, one million."

After saying that, he left with Lina and Dahl.

Ivan was left there, stunned, along with Beta, who was busy.

The huge Dahl didn't have a room in the Hiberfield family residence that could accommodate him, so he would have to spend the night elsewhere until a cabin was built for him the next day.

But there would be enough meat, no doubt.

For Dahl, being able to eat until he was full was the greatest happiness; he had no objections about where to live.

But Charlotte was seriously thinking about the reconstruction of the Hiberfield family.

With so many resources obtained, there were more than enough funds.

It was necessary to choose a new place to rebuild the family residence.

And it couldn't be something mediocre.

It had to be big and secure.

Charlotte thought for a long time.

The best thing would be a military fortress like the Marine headquarters for the Hiberfield family residence.

Just imagining it gave Charlotte a great sense of security.

On one hand, with the growth of the Hiberfield family, that would be the important refuge to protect all its members and their families.

On the other hand, it would serve to prevent the infiltration of spies.

Spies are extremely dangerous and difficult to detect.

Charlotte thought and thought.

But doing something like that was very complicated.

The main difficulty was the lack of personnel and the enormous funds needed.

Besides the sturdy materials and cannons.

For the Hiberfield family, this would be an immense project.

It had to be completed before the arrival of the Great Pirate Era, to be able to defend against the countless pirates.

It would avoid many unnecessary losses.

Charlotte was immersed in his thoughts.

Moments later, he made a decision and mustered the courage.

If he was going to do it, it would be the best.

It could be done in phases and with a long-term plan.

Security is essential.

But power is the most important, so starting tomorrow, he would select the most talented members for intense training.

Especially in Armament Haki and his own Observation Haki training methods.

With such good resources, they had to be used well to face the future turbulences at sea.

Also, with money, he could buy the Marine's Rokushiki training methods through the black market.

There are many corrupt people in the Marine, so with money, anything is possible.

Meanwhile, Ivan was amazed by the enormous treasures they were unloading.

"Ivan, we're rich!" Beta said proudly.

"This is too much. If I didn't know better, I'd think they looted a kingdom."

"Of course not! We are honest people."

Seeing Ivan astonished, Beta began to tell him what had happened on the trip.

Ivan's eyes sparkled with enthusiasm, especially when he heard about the battle between Charlotte and Dahl.

After hearing the whole story, Ivan thought about the antiques, probably many were remnants of ancient kingdoms.

He had a brilliant idea.
