Purple Talent

Abel believed that this [Century Soup] would definitely satisfy the needs of the gluttony cells in his body at this moment!

Because both his arms were broken, he directly leaned down and performed a 'Dragon Water Absorption'.

As the rich flavor spread in his mouth, his face unconsciously broke into a smile that looked like facial art.

The unparalleled sense of satisfaction was something he had never experienced in this life or his previous one!

Simply calling it delicious was an understatement, yet he couldn't think of any more fitting description.

And after he drank every last drop of this [Century Soup], a large amount of energy began to be digested and released.

All the injuries his body had sustained and carried since birth were being healed.

If Abel had X-ray vision, he would immediately see that the broken bones in his arms were rapidly healing and connecting.

His entire being was revitalizing!

It felt like someone had rented your house, found it unsatisfactory, and then proceeded to renovate it from the inside out, even replacing the furniture with new items.

However, when purifying toxins, the Lead Sickness virus that had taken root in his heart and become part of his body as a talent was completely unaffected.

This undoubtedly proved that his initial guess had become a reality.

At the same time, his gluttony cells were immensely satisfied and immediately began their first evolution!

Abel could even feel the hunger of his cells madly devouring energy.

It was as if every cell was growing stronger!

Finally, after an unknown amount of time, the restless gluttony cells finally subsided.

[Obtained Purple Talent - Rapid Digestion]

[Description: A talent gained from the evolution of gluttony cells, capable of digesting and breaking down food at the most efficient rate to extract energy.]

[When entering a 'Full Stomach' state, learning any knowledge will gain a tenfold bonus.]

At this moment, Abel suddenly felt reborn!

No, it wasn't just a feeling.

It had truly happened.

It was a clarity from the inside out.

Abel directly removed the splints from his arms and moved them casually. He then touched the location of the wound on his forehead; it didn't hurt at all.

Even some old scars from falls had disappeared.

If this were a cultivation world, it would probably be called Marrow Cleansing.

Abel took a deep breath, feeling better than ever.

As for the new talent he had just acquired, it was incredible.

It was powerful, fully deserving of the Purple rank!

He estimated that he would be walking further and further down the path of a foodie.

Moreover, if Purple Talent was this amazing, he could hardly imagine how heaven-defying Orange and the highest Red talents would be!

After re-securing the splints, Abel decided to get a good night's sleep.

The unfortunate soul still stuck in the trash heap was completely forgotten.

Alas, it was all in vain.

The next day, Abel continued to feign weakness and injury, contentedly enjoying the little loli's joyful feeding service.

Then, from their conversation, he heard another piece of news.

"Captain Dof and the cadres have left?"

"Yes, except for Lord Corra, who is staying to guard the base, all other cadres have departed. Their target is the port town Rakeish. The Young Master hates traitors the most, so he decided to eliminate them. I should have gone with them too, but because Abel needed me to take care of him, I stayed behind."

Seeing Baby-5's expectant look, Abel couldn't help but smile, "Yes, I need you very, very, very much right now. It's wonderful that you stayed."

Such words were probably the most potent praise for Baby-5.

Her cute face instantly turned bright red, as if steam was rising from her head, and she felt a little dizzy.

Seeing this, Abel couldn't resist taking the opportunity to pinch the little loli's cheeks.

Hmm, soft and fluffy, felt great.

If he were to slap her, she would probably cry for a long time.

Of course, this mischievous thought only flashed through his mind.

After all, he had long since regarded everything here as his own. Sooner or later, he would 'inherit' Mingo's legacy, which naturally included the obedient Baby-5.

"A-Abel seems a little different today."

Baby-5 shyly moved closer to him and twitched her nose.

"How is it different?" Abel was also very curious. What did he look like in other people's eyes now, and what changes had there been? Knowing this would give him a reason to gloss over it.

"It seems... he's become better looking, and the scent on him... is very pleasant."

Seeing that Baby-5 was about to cling to him without realizing it, Abel couldn't help but flick her forehead and then say, "It's probably because I took a bath."

Baby-5 let out a soft "Ah," puffed out her cheeks, and covered her forehead with her hand, but she was thinking, It does seem like that. After I take a bath, I smell nice too~

So she believed him, not thinking at all about whether Abel could bathe with his injuries, or where he had bathed.

After breakfast, Abel suggested they take a walk around.

Instantly feeling needed again, Baby-5 transformed into the most qualified guide and began showing him around the base.

With Baby-5 leading and the other cadres absent, no one blocked their way.

Except for places that even Baby-5 couldn't enter freely, Abel saw it all, and learned that the current situation of the Donquixote Family wasn't as good as he had imagined.

Not only were many forces in the North Sea displeased with the Donquixote Family's overbearing actions, opposing them openly and secretly.

There was also the Navy, led by Tsuru, relentlessly pursuing members of the Donquixote Family.

Otherwise, with Doflamingo's personality, he wouldn't have set up one of his bases in a dirty and chaotic environment like a junkyard.

If conditions allowed, that guy would definitely live in the biggest, most magnificent palace, enjoying the most precious delicacies.

Don't ask why; just know it's because of some genes ingrained in the Celestial Dragons.

After finishing the tour of the base, Abel finally remembered his 'good brother,' "Is Luo still outside?"

"Mm, it seems Lord Corra has thrown him out nineteen times already."

Before Baby-5 could finish speaking, the two of them suddenly heard the sound of window glass shattering and something heavy hitting the ground.

"That makes it twenty times now."
