Looking at his panel, Karl was a little surprised.

Unexpectedly, after eating a Devil Fruit, all his attributes except willpower improved. These were all bonuses brought by the Devil Fruit.

"Sigh~ you can become stronger just by sitting, would you say it's annoying?"

Simply testing the power of Holy Light, Karl found that it was just as the system said, it was strengthening and healing. He couldn't feel the strengthening effect for the time being, after all, it was a 14-year-old body.

How should I put the healing effect? Karl endured the pain and cut his palm with a fruit knife. After a Holy Light, the wound healed instantly. Only the blood on the ground could prove that he had just been injured.

"Phew~ this Devil Fruit is stronger than I thought!"

Although he was a little disappointed that he couldn't fly or go into the ground, this is the One Piece world after all!

If the Devil Fruit ability is not good, there is still physical technique and Haki, not to mention the Holy Light Fruit is not useless!

"Ooh~ that's scary~ has another Devil Fruit user been born?"

Listening to the voice coming from behind, Karl felt a chill on his back, turned his head in shock, and what came into view was a tall, thin man with black curly hair and sunglasses.

He was wearing a yellow and white striped suit, a purple tie, a dark green shirt, white leather shoes, his thin lips were pouted high, one hand was supporting his chin, and he had a thoughtful look.

It's you! Uncle PPAP! No, it's Admiral Kizaru!

When did he arrive? He didn't even notice it at all?

"Admiral, Admiral Kizaru!"

Karl stood up restrainedly and saluted Kizaru, his expression appearing a bit excited, which was very consistent with the attitude of an ordinary Marine meeting an Admiral.

Kizaru scanned Karl through his sunglasses, thinking, is the recruitment of Master Zefa's training camp so unreliable now? Are minors being brought out to work?

"Borsalino! What are you doing here?"

Originally, Zefa didn't get along well with Kizaru. During Kizaru's student days, he was the student Zefa liked the least: lazy, arrogant, and most importantly, biased.

But these were all old things, and Zefa didn't want to mention them anymore, but seeing Kizaru still made his blood pressure soar.

Especially seeing him talking to his recruits made him even more anxious, fearing that Karl would be bewitched by Kizaru and embark on a path of no return.

Wait, he didn't seem to be a Devil Fruit user...

Kizaru raised his eyebrows, hurriedly waved his hand at Zefa, and said in a yin-yang tone: "So scary~ Master Zefa, don't be so excited! You old arms and legs have to be careful."

Zefa said with a dark face in a deep voice: "I don't need your concern. As for you, a Navy Admiral, how do you still have time to wander around here?"

"Master Zefa, isn't it that I heard your Marine training camp has started again, so I came here specifically to help you see if there are any excellent talents! Hmm, this one is not bad. Hey, little brother, what was your ability again?"

After speaking, Kizaru sat on the bench, crossed his legs, and slumped on the backrest, not caring about Zefa's gaze at all.

"Hmph~ then you are wrong. This kid is not a Devil Fruit user, and your vision is not that good!"

"Oh? Is that so? Then what is this?"

Kizaru flashed, picked up the uneaten Holy Light Fruit that Karl had thrown on the ground, then sat back in his seat and showed the uneaten fruit flesh in his hand to Zefa.

It took less than 1 second to go and return, which shows how fast Kizaru is.

The rookie Karl could only see a flash of golden light, and then his uneaten Holy Light Fruit was in Kizaru's hand, and he couldn't see anything else.

Looking at the fruit in Kizaru's hand, those familiar patterns, Zefa's eyes focused, he turned his head to look at Karl, and asked seriously: "Did you just eat this?"

Karl swallowed a mouthful of saliva and nodded: "Uh, yes, but it was too disgusting, I only took one bite."

Zefa frowned and snatched the Holy Light Fruit from Kizaru's hand. He was a person who had read the Devil Fruit Illustrated Book, but after searching his memory, he still couldn't judge what ability this Devil Fruit was.

"Pfft~"

The Holy Light Fruit in his hand was crushed into pieces by Zefa, and he roared at Karl in a tone full of anger: "Idiot! Is a Devil Fruit something you can eat randomly? Do you know that once you eat a Devil Fruit, you will be cursed by the sea and become a landlubber forever!"

Kizaru: I feel offended!

"Cough, cough!"

Zefa turned his head to look at Kizaru, took a deep breath, calmed down, and continued to say to Karl: "Phew~ show me your ability!"

Kizaru also turned his body with great interest, wanting to see what Karl's ability was.

There was no way, these two were big shots among big shots, Karl had no room to resist at all. If he had known, he would have been low-key and eaten it after returning to the dormitory.

But who would have thought that Kizaru, this old six, would suddenly appear?

Under Zefa's gaze, Karl extended his right hand, and the pale golden light cluster appeared in his palm again, and under Karl's control, it quickly merged into Zefa's body.

Zefa's eyes widened. He had had asthma for most of his life, and he had never felt his lungs and throat so refreshed. That golden light was Move Move Like the sun dispelling the darkness...

"Cough, cough, cough~"

Not long after, Zefa began to cough violently, as if he wanted to cough out his lungs, his face with an unusual flush.

Kizaru frowned. Although he didn't know what was going on with Zefa now, it must have something to do with Karl.

The next second, Kizaru pointed his fingertips at Karl, and a dazzling golden light emerged, saying slowly: "What did you do to Master Zefa?"

"Don't!"

Zefa reached out to stop Kizaru, then with a puff, spat out a large piece of black blood phlegm, a smile appeared on his face, and he grabbed Karl's shoulder and asked in surprise: "Your ability, does it have a healing effect?"

"Wait... my body...."

Before Karl could speak, Zefa raised his hands in disbelief, his eyes full of shock. That golden light just now actually made his strength a little stronger.

It was Move Move Like being a year younger. Although the bonus was not much, he had just become a Devil Fruit user!

"You, where did you find this Devil Fruit?"

Of course, Karl couldn't say it was sent by the system. After thinking for a while, he said: "Didn't I go to the infirmary just now? When I came back, I bought some fresh fruit to eat, and then... it was Move Move Like this."

Karl lied, but he didn't lie completely.

When he came back from the infirmary just now, he did buy some fruit, just to relive the pleasure of others having military training while he was eating melons on the side. The melon peels and fruit scraps on the ground could prove this.

Zefa quickly filled in the process of the matter. When Karl was eating the fruit he bought, one of them suddenly became a Devil Fruit, which happened to be eaten by Karl, and then discovered by Kizaru.

"Heaven bless the Navy!!!"

Zefa roared excitedly, tears streaming down his face. This old man who had almost dedicated his life to the Navy knew better than anyone how important the ability of healing + strengthening was to the Navy!

Karl had just obtained the Devil Fruit ability and could have such an obvious effect on him. Once he grows up, his effect on the Navy will be immeasurable!

First, Karl's ability can be released remotely, which also means he can conveniently apply strengthening effects to his companions. After training, he might be able to strengthen multiple Marines at the same time, raising the overall combat power of the Navy by several levels.

Secondly, Karl's ability has healing ability, and the healing effect is very powerful. On the battlefield where swords have no eyes, with Karl there, the casualty rate of the Navy will be greatly reduced, and the Navy can fight back, thereby freeing up more combat power!

Finally, and most importantly, Karl is a ten-year veteran, his loyalty to the Navy is unquestionable, and his foundation is solid, and his success rate is extremely high. As long as he is well trained, in time, Karl will definitely become a leader of the new generation of the Navy!

Thinking of this, Zefa looked at Karl with a bit more heat. It is a blessing for the Navy to have you!

"Karl, you, come with me to Sengoku's office right now! Go now!"
