Seven days later.
Marine Headquarters, Marineford.
Having used up the gains from the past six months, Xia Luo summoned the system panel he had not seen in a long time.
[Host: Nico Xia Luo] [Age: 17] [Height: 301 cm] [Skills and Talents: Six Treasury Immortal Thief LV3 (70%), Zoan Mythical Zoan · Fish-Fish Fruit · Azure Dragon Form LV3 (3%), Martial Arts LV3 (81%), Staffsmanship LV3 (1%), Six Powers LV3 (29%), Logia · Rumble-Rumble Fruit LV2 (96%), Observation Haki LV2 (68%), Conqueror's Haki LV2 (72%), Armament Haki LV2 (88%), Life Return LV2 (57%), Paramecia · More More Fruit LV2 (11%)] [Main Quest: ----]
