Chapter 23 - Chapter 23

- Wooden dragon!!! - Leonardo exclaimed.

In the dorm room, a two-meter-tall wooden dragon suddenly grew out of the floor, appearing right in front of him.

Of course, this was the result of his ability to control his power. He didn't dare summon a huge wooden dragon. If the dormitory building collapsed, even his father's salary and pension wouldn't be enough to compensate for the damage. He would have to work for free for the rest of his life. A terrible prospect.

However, looking at the two-meter-tall, seemingly living wooden dragon, Leonardo thought. His previous guesses were correct. Over the past few days, the second leaf had caught fire, and his life energy had become significantly stronger. Now he felt that even if he was seriously injured, he would be able to recover quickly.

Of course, it was just a feeling. He wasn't stupid enough to test it on himself.

But after a small cut on his hand, he noticed that the speed of recovery had actually increased. Where as before it took several seconds to heal, now it took less than two seconds.

The question then arose: is this system serious about him?

He had spent the last few days in the equipped room, working hard with iron, but to no avail. It turned out that the leaf had caught fire the moment it was first kissed.

Leonardo was confused. If it only took a girl kissing him to activate it, then it was too easy. All he had to do was walk around Sabaody, and all the remaining sheets would light up in no time.

But what if this is not so?

Could he really become a Player? He may not be a pirate, but he's a Marine, and the Player's reputation isn't the best. They say the first test for an officer who's promoted to rear admiral or higher is a lifestyle test...

But if not a kiss, then what? Maybe iron after all?

Although it's unlikely. How much hardware has he touched over the years? A Lot

Since he was five, his father had made him train. He doesn't even remember how many years he spent working with iron. But for the first ten years, not a single sheet caught fire, and now, in less than a year, two have caught fire.

- Looks like it's equipped.

Remembering the wise glint in old Curry's eyes, I can't wait to personally oversee the battle and teach them how to deal with girls.

- He's a good guy.

The vice admiral at Marine Headquarters muttered this, squinting slightly as he glanced at the profile of the student he held in his hand.

There are all sorts of rumors going around in Marines right now. The story with her sister, Sengoku, and Garp just happened, and now it's her sister's turn. At first, she didn't pay attention to it, thinking it was just gossip. But later, the topic started to spread more and more cautiously, and the key moment was her sister's unusual reaction. She realized that maybe it was true.

Knowing her sister's character, if this was a lie, she would have exploded on the spot. But now there was no reaction. And the phone conversations with her were somehow secretive. She also noticed that her sister began to communicate with her less often. Then she began to learn about Vice Admiral Curry's family, especially about the younger Curry.

She hadn't cared about it before. After all, when she talked to Curry's brother, she felt that he had a rather peculiar character. Back when they were marines, everyone thought about punishing evil and upholding justice, but Old Curry, only dreamed of fishing and relaxing.

Under her influence over the years, Gion suddenly met someone like Curry, and it was natural for her to be interested in him. But now that she talks to her sister about it, Gion begins to hide something, and it raises questions.

Although Curry has many problems, big and small, he is still a very good person. As his "carefully" raised son, he is certainly trustworthy in terms of character. But if he has something with her sister, it is better to understand it first. Zephyr, her old friend and a Marine staff officer, can get information about the student with one word.

She knew that this guy had been marked by Fleet Admiral Kong before.
