"Loading the Power Stone"

Jenny and George had gradually begun to understand Leo's troubled feelings.

Once he possessed this ability, he also had far more to shoulder.

Although they had no idea what had happened, the two still agreed that Leo should deal with his own affairs first.

After seeing Zost struggle to control his strength following his enhancement, Jenny and George realized that they would also need extensive strength training and time to familiarize themselves with their bodies.

With Zhang Huan's powerful eloquence, the two finally understood Leo's actions.

Now, perhaps they would no longer feel troubled when Leo was away, because they understood that Leo was surely dealing with something more important.

"You betrayed our leader. He'll definitely pierce your throat!"

"There are a lot of people outside looking for trouble with you! Ronan even seems to be looking for you!"

A man with a knife scar at the corner of his eye and across his forehead looked at Quill as he spoke.

"You've gotten the Ravagers into huge trouble!"
