The Binding King-I'll Be It for Sure!!

Inside the cabin, Ginny's words—"I want to eat the String-String Fruit"—silenced everyone for a moment.

Everyone's eyes turned to her.

Lin Nuo neither agreed nor refused immediately.

After pondering for a moment, he looked at Ginny and asked, "Ginny, are you sure?"

"Have you really thought this through? Once you eat a Devil Fruit, there's no turning back. You'll become a landlubber."

"And the development of an ability depends greatly on its user."

"The String-String Fruit does have an incredibly high ceiling, but eating it won't instantly make you strong."

Ginny met his gaze and nodded firmly.

"I'm sure! Brother Lin Nuo, I want to be able to help everyone sooner! I can't keep letting everyone protect me!"

"That fruit sounds so powerful. If I can master it, I'll definitely become more useful to the team!"

Her tone was urgent, but there was also a trace of anxiety in it.

Lin Nuo sighed softly, his tone easing.

"Ginny, you don't actually want this fruit that badly, do you?"

Ginny lowered her head and mumbled quietly, "I... I just want to..."

"You just want to become useful as soon as possible, right, Ginny?" Ivankov suddenly spoke from beside her.

He reached out and patted Ginny on the shoulder.

"I understand you, but you can't be too impatient."

"Just like I said about wavelengths: if a fruit doesn't suit you, then no matter how powerful it is, you may only get half the result for twice the effort."

"It's good to want to grow stronger, but what we want to see even more is you being happy, Ginny—finding the path that truly belongs to you and growing stronger at your own pace."

Kuma nodded as well. "Ginny, you've already helped a lot."

"Intelligence, logistics, and so on—we can't do without you."
