Chapter 288 What's the Shortcoming?
Charlotte was puffing away in his office as usual. This was his daily job.
Fortunately, everyone in the Pirate World has a strong physique, so a few cigarettes are not a big problem.
So Xia Luo let go of the twitching, and it wouldn't kill him anyway.
"Click!"
There was a crisp sound of the door opening, and Charlotte looked for the sound. As expected, it was undoubtedly the guy from Beta.
This guy either breaks down his door or doesn't knock.
"Boss, I'm here."
Beta showed a flattering smile, and it looked like she was holding something back.
"Tell me, what's the matter?"
Charlotte looked at Beta and asked lightly.
"Hey...it's okay!"
"It's okay!"
Charlotte looked at Beta with a suspicious look.
"Boss...really not."
Seeing Beta's vow, Charlotte didn't say anything more even though he was suspicious?
"Boss, look, I got you a drink!"
As he spoke, Beta put down the wine in his hand.
"Um?"
Charlotte was stunned, feeling that something was not right about this guy, and her eyes fell on the bottle of wine.
There is a series of words written on it in English - JEREZ!
"Sherry? Is this a specialty wine? It's really good!"
Charlotte showed a smile. Zefa loved to drink wine. The former general must have good taste!
Have a little expectation?
"You guys, you surprised me this time! Yes, you are serious."
"Boss, look at what you said, I have always been very thoughtful!"
Beta looked very obscene with a flattering look on her face.
Charlotte ignored it, pulled out the wine cork with a bang, raised his head and blew into his mouth.
"Grrrrrr!"
After taking several sips in a row, the moment I put it down, my eyes lit up, "It's really not bad!"
This wine is not as strong and slightly bitter as ordinary wine, but rather slightly sweet, which is a very good feeling.
Beta looked at Charlotte's appearance, with a sinister smile on her face that was gradually becoming perverted.
"Boss!!!"
Charlotte, who was just about to drink something, stopped and looked at Beta with some doubts.
"Why, do you have anything else to say?"
Beta said shyly, "Boss, look at me to see if I have any shortcomings!"
ha? ? ?
Any shortcomings?
"stupid!"
"Boss, no, I'm not short-sighted!" Beta looked at Charlotte speechlessly, seeming to disagree with his statement that he was short-sighted.
Charlotte looked at Beta like this and smiled. This guy was obviously careless, everyone could see it, but he didn't want to admit it.
He really felt like he was drunk alone when everyone was awake, but he still felt good about himself.
"That's not what happened!"
Beta shook his head and quickly continued, "Boss, you are looking at me, what else is missing?"
What's missing? What do these mean?
Charlotte looked at Beta, looking left, right, up and down. He didn't see any shortcomings at all?
But it looks like the clothes are a bit torn!
"Lack of tendons?"
"Boss, no! Am I missing something?" Beta looked at Charlotte with a resentful look on her face. Why did she feel that her status in the boss's heart was so low?
Did the boss have some misunderstanding about him?
Beta felt so sad for a moment!
"Boss, are you taking a closer look?"
Beta still spoke without giving up, as if he would never give up.
Charlotte shook her head helplessly and couldn't help laughing when she looked at this guy.
Needless to say, there is definitely something wrong with this guy who has been grinding away until now.
He knew that the wine was not for nothing, "Tell me, you and the bastard boy, what kind of bad water are in your stomach?"
"Boss, is something broken there? I'm being sincere!"
sincere?
The corner of Charlotte's mouth twitched. Are you kidding me with your words? You are obviously being sincere and short-sighted.
What you do is an insult to sincerity!
Of course, Charlotte didn't say what she was complaining about in her heart, otherwise this guy would have to "fight" with him again.
"If something happens, it's okay. If it doesn't happen, forget it."
When Beta heard this, Beta immediately became anxious and said hurriedly.
"Boss, look, my ship needs a lot of weapons now, and the funds are not enough!!!"
Charlotte was extremely speechless, "Aren't they all equipped with conventional artillery?"
"Yes, boss, you also said it is a conventional artillery, but I think it is not powerful enough! I want to equip the [Bassaluka] heavy artillery developed by the family, but that needs to be ordered!"
Charlotte looked at Beta in surprise, not expecting this guy to be eyeing that thing.
The [Basaruka] heavy artillery is a large-caliber heavy artillery made of "Olga" alloy. It is a powerful artillery developed by the Silberfeller family. The accuracy can be adjusted, so it is quite powerful in terms of firepower and accuracy.
"Boss, how's it going?"
Beta looked at Charlotte pitifully.
Charlotte felt embarrassed for a moment, especially this time she was so arrogant and came wearing shabby clothes, which can be regarded as a rare bit of wisdom!
"Okay, okay, I promise you."
"Yeah! That's great, boss." Beta cheered excitedly.
Beta left with joy, but before Charlotte could take a break, Lina came again.
"Is that all Lina?"
Charlotte asked helplessly, and Lina said a little seriously.
"Charlotte, we got the news..."
After hearing Lina's news, Charlotte looked serious.
"You mean the Parahuman Float Fruit has appeared."
Charlotte asked uncertainly.
"Yes! Charlotte, after our persistent search, our people found that the Parahuman Float Fruit is now on Teslet Island."
Teslet?
Charlotte frowned slightly, "Is there any news from the sea now?"
Lina shook her head, "No."
No? A trace of doubt flashed in Charlotte's eyes.
You know, as the former Float Fruit ability user, Golden Lion Shiki, his fruit ability is extremely terrifying.
Other forces should not pay attention to this information!
"Charlotte, it is very likely that we are the force that sent the most people to find the Float Fruit, and the consumption is too terrible."
Listening to Lina's words, Charlotte nodded, it is indeed the case!
After all, it is unpredictable where the devil fruit will be reborn. To be honest, sometimes even if you put in a lot of effort, you may not get anything.
You have to know that the Heberfil family has been secretly searching for this devil fruit since the death of Golden Lion Shiki, which has been nearly two years.
The human, material and financial resources involved are huge, and that is to say, the Heberfil family has a terrible solid foundation to continue searching for so long.
Even the current Big Mom Pirates and Whitebeard Pirates do not have such financial resources, and the Beast Pirates are not interested in this superhuman fruit at all.
"And from the information sent back, the devil fruit is likely to fall into the hands of others, but we don't know who it is, but we can be sure that the other party has not left Tslet Island."
Charlotte nodded.
He needs to get the superhuman floating fruit, and the expansion plan of Lati Island in the future will need this fruit.
So he must get this devil fruit.
In this case, he really has to go and see it in person, and he spoke slowly.
"Lina, go and inform Ivan to arrange the trip. This time, you must be quick and careful."
"Okay, Charlotte, don't worry." Seeing Charlotte's importance to this operation, Lina didn't dare to underestimate it at all.
As Lina left, Charlotte slowly stood up and looked out the window, thinking about the next action in his heart.
