Chapter 2 - Boarding To The Sky In One Step!
[Edited]
———
After a while, Lionel and Garp emerged from the dense forest and entered a big village that is called Foosha Village.
At this moment, Lionel was still relying on the old man to walk. In this little village where many legends of this world came from existence.
Lionel stood staring at the windmill with admiration and a bit of curiosity.
"Boyo, see this windmill? This is the symbol of Foosha village! I participated in its construction a long time ago." Lionel got out of his thoughts thanks to Garp's raspy voice.
"Really? Then she must be very precious to the villagers!" Lionel replied.
"Yeah, you can say that, bwahahaha! Do you have ideas for her, brat? With your fragile body, you won't be able to even move her!" Garp joked before bursting into laughter.
"No, I just thought that something the hero Garp personally built is a priceless treasure." Lionel was praising Garp wholeheartedly at this moment.
"Bwahahaha! Your tongue is good compared to your miserable look, you stinking brat! Come, let's go, you still need to see a doctor, bwahahaha!" Garp was in a very good mood after hearing Lionel's praise.
After a while, the two men arrived at the small port that held a large warship with a dog's head, which, without any surprise, was Vice Admiral Garp's.
"Bwahahahaha! Are you going to stay here staring at her? Come, follow me to the ship, you should see the doctor at once," Urged Garp, after noticing that Lionel was in a daze.
"Ye-yes!" Garp's loud voice woke Lionel from his momentary astonishment as he looked at the giant warship and especially the dog's head!
After that, they climbed the stairs and boarded the ship safely.
On the ship, Lionel was drawn to the lively scenery, where there are Marines of almost every rank, from the ordinary enlisted to the Commodore!
And all of them were trained in Marineford!
"Bwahahaha! Brat, Do you like what you're seeing? Do you want to join our Marines? I can have you on my ship." Garp had reached a terrifying level of strength that allowed him to possess strong instincts and he had always trusted his instincts, and this time he saw something unusual in the child in front of him.
His eyes! Yes, his eyes look as if they are looking down on everything else in the world with contempt, he is not particularly strong, but his spirit and will are limitless, he is very sure that Lionel's future could not be predicted if he was given a chance to train, and he hoped this good seedling to become a Navy instead of a pirate.
"It's not like I don't want to join the Navy or something, but I'm sorry, I can't make a decision now as I need some time to think about my future." Lionel replied while looking at the marines Infront of him. He still has to get to know them well before he decides on his next steps, especially an important one like joining a major faction in the world of one piece.
"Bwahahahaha! Okay, since you want time to think, I'll give you one week! If you can't still decide, it's unfortunate but I need to go!" Garp was slightly disappointed but quickly forgot about it because the young man didn't reject it outright. He also approved of Lionel's decision for not being stupid and not think about it.

So with peace of mind, he called out to a Marine recruit nearby and gave an order.
"Take him to the ship's doctor and tell him to treat his wounds and take good care of him."
"Understood, Vice Admiral Garp!" The recruit made a short salute and then Lionel was led towards the ship's clinic on the other side of the ship.
Walking amongst the soldiers, Lionel certainly caught their attention, but they knew he came with their boss so there weren't any problems, until they got to the clinic room.
After entering the clinic, his gaze swept to a man who looked like in his early forties, with a long beard, thick eyebrows, and he wore a doctor's gown that proved that he is the doctor of this ship.
"Come, sit here. Remove your upper garment and lie on your back." The doctor instructed and Lionel complied.

(Evening)
After the doctor's treatment, Lionel had recovered a little, at least he could do necessary things without needing anyone's help.
He was currently still in the clinic room, which is empty and quiet.
"It's finally time... System, show me my status!"
[Din-]
"System, can you disable this bell? Just do it when there's a necessary notice." Lionel asked as he doesn't like the 'Ding!' sound of the system.
[Affirmative]

Total physical strength + spiritual strength: 16 attribute units
Host Health Status: Injured (infection degree 20%) ]
"So this is my status huh... System, What does the attribute unit mean?" Lionel nodded before asking his system while scratching his chin.
[The attribute unit is the term the system uses as a level measurement]
"Okay, what is my current strength level with my attributes?" Lionel asked with a serious expression as his question is very important.
[The host's total physical and spiritual strength is 16 attribute units, your current level in this world's measurement is at the level of a Marine soldier or pirate that has a 5 million Berry bounty on his head]
"This powerful and the previous owner of the body died from ordinary bandits!?" Lionel asked with a confused expression.
[The previous owner's physical and spiritual attributes were at the level of an ordinary person. But the host is still as weak as the former and even if your level is statistically high, you cannot use your spiritual strength and the host's physical strength is still at the level of an ordinary person]
[System advises the Host to start plundering Destiny immediately]
"Okay I get it, thank you system, please show me the old man skills." Lionel nodded before commanding the system.
[Affirmative]
After he saw the list of the old man's powerful skills, he carefully scrutinized between the only two peak level skills (haki of armament) and (Physical Strength). He was going to choose one of these two as he was sure that he would reach the peak immediately with one of them.
He didn't think for a long time and pressed the button in front of (physical strength). Because before he learned haki, he had to have the necessary physical strength for it, and so logically speaking, he chose (Physical strength) over the overpowered (Armament haki).
[Stealing the destiny of the skill "Physical Strength, Peak Mastery" from the person's fate list , Monkey D Garp]
[0%...10%...35%...55%...80%....100%]
Suddenly, Lionel felt like he had been injected with the most severe steroids ever! He felt like a balloon being inflated so fast and he panicked as he thought he was going to explode at any moment.
Though this feeling didn't last long. After that scary predicament, it was replaced by the feeling of refreshing, healthy, and... strong! He had the feeling that he could hold the sky if it fell and he was exuding pure physical strength like a primal beast! Although his frame didn't change much, his body became fair and fit.
After that, he noticed that there were black sticky liquids scattered everywhere, and it turns out, it came out of his body!
"This… Is this the pinnacle of physical strength? Was Garp that strong?!" Lionel shouted before touching his body. He then clenched his fist tightly from excitement, but the system responded quickly.
[The host's physical strength has transcended this world]
"Huh…? System, show me my attribute stats."
[Attributes:

[Ding!]
[The system advise the host to balance his spiritual strength with his physical strength or else it will be very uncomfortable in the short term, and very dangerous in the long run]
As he looked at the red alert interface, he already felt extremely uncomfortable. He wasn't sure that he would be able to control this new body in such a short amount of time.
"Yuckkk!! What's that stench?! I'm going to puke!" Lionel frowned after looking around and he saw the clinic was covered with strange black liquid. Then something clicked in his mind and he remembered that it was impurities that came out of his body after being washed away by the Destiny of Garb physical strength!
Lionel tried to get up to go to the bathroom, but as soon as he stood up, the stern of the ship tilted to the side as if it would capsize at any moment.
The marines on the ship panicked as they felt as if there's a sea king trying to sink them all!!!
