One piece: Establishing a Pirate Family

Chapter 123: Sharing Devil Fruits

Animal type · Cat-Cat Fruit · Tabby Cat form!

Animal type · Elephant-Elephant Fruit · White Elephant form!

Animal type · Shatsu-Shatsu Fruit · Hamster form!

Sure enough, they were all ordinary types, with no ancient species in sight.

But when Charlotte thought of the other devil fruits he had, his mood improved.

The Fusion Fruit, the Swamp Fruit, the Slowness Fruit, and the Scythe Fruit were all top-tier devil fruits. If used well, it was entirely possible to cultivate several general-level fighters.

As for the four animal-type devil fruits, the Goshawk and White Elephant forms could be given to cadres under his command. The Tabby Cat and Hamster forms could be assigned to combat maids. These would strengthen the grassroots forces of his future organization, ensuring that even his subordinates weren't too weak.

In the future, Charlotte planned to use family ties as the foundation to establish the Rockefeller family, with his children serving as the backbone and main force of his operations.

Thinking this through, Charlotte hid the Slowness Fruit, the Scythe Fruit, and the Swamp Fruit. Then he took out the Goshawk Fruit, White Elephant Fruit, Tabby Cat Fruit, Hamster Fruit, and Fusion Fruit.

He had already decided to let Barrett eat the Fusion Fruit.

Carrying the five devil fruits in his hand, Charlotte walked out of his private quarters. Before leaving, he pressed a button in the captain's room.

The next moment, the alarm sounded, spreading across the entire ship.

Everyone stopped what they were doing and listened intently to the alarm. Without hesitation, they ran toward the deck.

In less than ten minutes, over a hundred people gathered on the deck. Among them were seven team leaders:

1. Captain Zebra Rodney Carter

Devil Fruit: Animal type, Ma-Ma Fruit, Zebra form

Bounty: 160 million berries

Followers: 20+ combat crew members

2. Second Captain, Madman Bunil Ralph

Bounty: 90 million berries

Followers: 20+ combat crew members

3. Third Captain, Combat Maid Monica Harrington

Devil Fruit: Animal type, Bug-Bug Fruit, Dragonfly form

Followers: 60+ combat maids

4. Ship's Doctor Nick Hume

Followers: 5 doctor maids

5. Boatman Adolf Rudolf

Followers: 10 boatmen

6. Fourth Captain, Swordsman Paul Bunyan

Bounty: 78 million berries

Followers: 12 swordsmen

7. Fifth Captain, Swordsman Isaac Marlowe

Bounty: 76 million berries

Followers: 10 swordsmen

Additionally, there were five of Charlotte's personal maids, along with Elena, Panis, and Barrett, who was only eight years old but already stood over two meters tall.

These were Charlotte's assets, carefully built over the past four years. He had always adhered to the principle of steady development and avoided expanding his team excessively.

The combined strength of his captains and crew was formidable. Some were as strong as naval colonels, and Carter's strength was comparable to a rear admiral of the Navy Headquarters.

"I've called everyone together today because I have rewards for you!" Charlotte announced. "Recently, I obtained some devil fruits. I want to share them so everyone's strength can reach a new level!"

Hearing this, the crew's initial nervous expressions eased. The sudden emergency assembly had frightened them, as they thought the ship was under attack.

"Ralph!" Charlotte called. "This is the Animal type · Elephant-Elephant Fruit · White Elephant form. It's perfect for you. The recovery ability and strength it offers will complement your physical skills. It's your choice whether to eat it or not!"

Charlotte threw the White Elephant Fruit to Ralph.

Ralph was a pirate captain who had been rescued by Charlotte from a slave ship. Moved by Charlotte's kindness and righteousness, he knelt on the deck for three days and nights, begging to join Charlotte's crew.

Charlotte had been touched by Ralph's persistence and agreed to let him join after using Observation Haki to confirm his sincerity.

Since then, Ralph had trained hard every day and was always at the forefront during battles. He earned the nickname "Madman" for his bravery and had a bounty of 90 million berries.

When Ralph caught the fruit, his eyes turned red with emotion. He knew a devil fruit was worth at least 100 million berries, and his boss had given it to him without hesitation.

Overwhelmed with gratitude, Ralph closed his eyes and took a bite of the fruit.

"Ugh!"

He grimaced, quickly covering his mouth to avoid spitting it out. Forcing himself to swallow, he began taking larger bites until the entire fruit was gone.

Charlotte watched Ralph's constipated expression with amusement, while the other crew members, who had eaten devil fruits before, winced in sympathy.

After consuming the fruit, Ralph's nose lengthened, and his body expanded, transforming into a massive, 4.5-meter-tall white elephant.

"Elephant! Elephant!" Esdeath, sitting in Jenny's arms, clapped excitedly at the sight.

Ralph, still unsteady in his new form, made a fool of himself before gradually gaining control. Returning to his human form, he clenched his fists and felt his newfound strength.

"Good!" Charlotte praised, moving on to the next.

The ship's doctor, Hume, and the boatman, Rudolf, declined the devil fruits, shaking their heads.

Finally, Charlotte looked at Paul and Isaac, who had been with him for over six months.

The two shook their heads as well.

"Boss! Our dream is to become swordsmen. We won't eat devil fruits!" Paul explained firmly.

Charlotte nodded in understanding before turning to Monica.

"Monica! Select three maids with the best performance and strength. They'll receive these three devil fruits."

Charlotte handed Monica the Goshawk Fruit, Tabby Cat Fruit, and Hamster Fruit.

Monica, who had already eaten the Bug-Bug Fruit, didn't need another devil fruit. She immediately distributed the fruits to three of her strongest and most trusted maids.

The three maids stepped forward, their faces filled with gratitude and determination.

Charlotte watched them proudly, envisioning the stronger force they would become.
