Marvel: Sign-In System – Starting with the Glint-Glint Fruit

After the heart-to-heart talk, Matthew began speaking about the main matter.

He stopped walking and said to Skye, "Have you learned about your own ability?"

"Yeah. The supervisors mentioned it while they were testing and observing me." Skye nodded. "My ability can create shockwaves. If used properly, it can trigger large-scale earthquakes, and it can also be focused onto a tiny point for precise destruction."

"But…"

Her face twisted with bitterness at the end.

Matthew continued for her. "But you realized you can't control that power, right?"

"Yes." Skye sighed. "When I create shockwaves, although I can control them, they also damage my body. Not just my muscles, but my bones too."

"The further I go beyond what my body can handle, the greater the damage."

"That's a good summary. So these past few days, you've been constantly using and releasing your ability within that threshold, exploring a higher threshold step by step. It's a good idea." Matthew praised Skye.

This girl was not stupid at all. On the contrary, she was very smart.

Otherwise, she would never have mastered such top-tier computer skills at her age.

It was not only because of talent, but also because she knew how to use her brain.

"You are not a mutant. You are different from those mutants. Many mutants lose control of their abilities because they don't know how to control them. But you are different."

At this point, Matthew paused, then continued.

He turned his head and looked out toward the sea. "After your ability awakened, it became like an instinct."

"Other than also losing control when your emotions are stirred or you are stimulated, you should be able to feel afterward that your control over your ability is very good, even outstanding."

"Yes. I picked it up very quickly, but it's too strong." Skye confirmed Matthew's words.

That was exactly what troubled her. She was not worried about precision in control. What worried her was that the power itself was too strong.

"You don't need to worry about that."

Matthew shook his head. "Have you not noticed? Every time you get injured, after you recover, the threshold your body can withstand increases."

"Seems like it."

Skye frowned slightly. After thinking it over, she realized it really was true.

"That is the wonder of the body. It's the same as many people exercising or working out. Every time they perform a large amount of strength training, they are actually causing slight wear and damage to the body. But when they rest, the body starts its repair mechanism."

"After the repair, the muscles, bones, and so on are strengthened, because the body itself needs to adapt and match the intensity of the exercise."

"Reacher and the others are the same. Their training intensity exceeds their physical limits, and after every training session, their entire bodies are covered in injuries. Yet once they recover, they can quickly adapt to the original training intensity."

Matthew pointed out the fundamental reason.

The principle itself was very simple. Even ordinary people who did not exercise much would have a vague, general understanding of it.

But Skye was different. She had basically never come into contact with this kind of thing, so Matthew had to explain the underlying logic clearly.

Because he could tell that every time Skye trained, she held herself back, deliberately lowering the strength of her ability.

That would not do.

Getting injured here was not a problem at all. How could she become stronger without being injured?

Without madness, there was no survival.

He did not state this directly. Instead, he used this principle to remind the girl indirectly.

As long as it doesn't kill you, you should train right up to the edge.

Don't be afraid of getting hurt.

If you fear injury, how can you ever become the Destroyer of Worlds?

Why was the future Skye able to grow into one of Earth's most powerful ability users in such a short time right after awakening?

Wasn't it because after joining Coulson's team she faced crisis after crisis and kept breaking through her limits in one desperate situation after another?

That is exactly why the girl spent the rest of her time constantly fighting and getting injured.

Skye understood the moment it was pointed out to her. Realization immediately dawned on her. "So that's how it is. No wonder my progress became so slow after I adapted to my ability."

"Your ability has a very high ceiling, Skye," Matthew said earnestly. "But if you want to become strong, a resilient will is the key."

"Once the training room specially tailored for you is finished, you'll need to open up your mindset. Training isn't just about tempering your body. It also tempers your will."

"I understand, BOSS."

Matthew's pep talk was very effective, and Skye was clearly fired up.

Seeing the girl become so spirited, Matthew smiled faintly.

That was more like it. Young people shouldn't be afraid to push forward.

Time to get moving.

…

News that Natasha had awakened both types of Haki spread through the entire base in no time.

When Natasha finally woke up, finished her usual several hours of meditation until five in the morning, and lazily climbed out of bed to wash up, she opened the bedside cabinet, took out a nutritional energy bar, and bit into it.

After drinking some water, a strong sense of fullness settled in her stomach.

Every cell in her body seemed to cheer as energy was replenished.

That active vitality quickly transformed into energy again, repairing the damage still present in her body.

So comfortable!!

Natasha stretched lazily, changed clothes, and headed out, planning to go to the cafeteria for breakfast.

Keeping the habit of eating was a good practice.

The greatest benefit of taste was that eating delicious food could make a person's mood better.

Natasha liked being in a good mood. She did not like shutting herself away.

So like the other soldiers, even though she no longer needed to eat, she still kept the habit of having meals.

Because of this, the chef teams had put considerable effort into researching cuisine.

These teams came from different countries. Internally, they even specialized in developing dishes, cooking according to each person's different eating habits.

However, as soon as Natasha stepped out, she saw the girls of the Raven Warband blocking the doorway of her room.

That included Neagley and Roscoe, who had just recovered, as well as Needy.

Facing all those eyes full of curiosity, Natasha was not startled. Instead, she had long since expected it.

After all, her newly awakened Observation Haki was not just for show.

She had already sensed the mass of powerful life auras gathered outside her door.

"Would it be all right if we went to eat first and talked afterward?" Natasha raised her fine brows charmingly.

"Hehe, let's go. We'll go together."

Neagley walked over and wrapped an arm around Natasha's deadly slender waist without the slightest politeness. Then she quickly waved for the others to clear a path, heading toward the cafeteria.

For a time, the large group headed noisily toward the cafeteria.

As soon as they stepped inside, however, they discovered that the Astartes had already gathered there. One after another, they cast over gazes that were exactly the same as the ones Neagley and the others had worn earlier.

Natasha's mentality was very steady.

Ignoring those gazes, she walked proudly to the food section. Immediately, a Raven soldiers with excellent awareness brought over a tray and respectfully handed it to Natasha.

"Not bad. You have potential."

Natasha praised her, took the tray, and found a dish she liked. Before Natasha could move, Neagley beside her diligently took the dish out and placed it on Natasha's tray.

"Mm."

Natasha gave a reserved nod, expressing her approval.
