A Marine Admiral in the Marvel Universe

The doctor's face turned pale, and hot blood slowly flowed from the bullet hole. The Colt M1873 revolver fired 11.43mm pistol bullets, which have weak stopping power, so being hit by one would not kill him so quickly.

But... this is a snake's den!

As soon as the smell of blood spread, the snakes below the cliff seemed to pause, then quickly crawled out and towards the limp doctor.

Then the snakes tore the doctor into pieces and ate him.

Ding!

[Host eliminates Dr. Jack, completing one "Eliminate Evil" mission. Contribution rate: 55%. Reward: 55 Merit Points, 25 Experience Points.]

Hey~

【Justice Naval System (Supporting Every Naval Soldier with a righteous heart)】

[Soldier's Name: Cao Gui (Naval Corporal, Swordsman Apprentice)]

[Merit Points: 33700; Experience Points: 30120/50000]

[Taoist Power Value: 205 (A standard reflecting combat power, not a factor determining combat power)]

Cao Gui raised an eyebrow. It seemed this guy had done a lot of wicked things, otherwise the system wouldn't have judged killing him as "eliminating evil".

At this moment, the pythons, who had just finished feeding the doctor, immediately turned their attention to Cao Gui. One person was clearly not enough for them to eat their fill.

Cao Gui rolled his eyes, took out some snake repellent medicine, which was left over from the last trip. Seeing the pythons stirring, Cao Gui raised his hand and slapped the snake repellent medicine onto his face, then ran away.

Dealing with these pythons would be a piece of cake, but... since the goal has already been achieved, why bother with the effort?

Hit and run, so much fun!

Behind them, the pythons roared incessantly, filled with impotent rage.

……

Kuching, on Borneo, is the capital of Sarawak, Malaysia, and the largest city on the island, with a predominantly Chinese population.

In a luxury hotel in the city, with a splash, Cao Gui sat up naked from the hotel bathtub.

He twisted his neck and stretched, and immediately his whole body crackled and popped like popping beans.

"Haha, I feel so refreshed!" Cao Gui laughed. With the long-awaited increase in strength, he could finally cultivate freely without worrying about damaging his body.

Six Styles - Paper Drawing!

Cao Gui narrowed his eyes and activated Paper Drawing. His right arm instantly thickened and lengthened, and waves of intense pain continued to emanate from it.

However, it's not a big problem. Cao Gui can recover with the help of medicinal baths. Now, he can start to freely use paper drawing to change his body shape.

The effect of the paper drawing looks a bit like the power of the Gum-Gum Fruit, but the two are not the same thing in essence.

The Gum-Gum Fruit grants superhuman abilities, transforming the user's body into a rubber-like material. Whatever properties rubber possesses, the Gum-Gum Fruit user will also possess those properties.

Paper drawing simply makes the body softer. Although it can make parts larger, thicker, longer, and shorter, the total mass of the body does not increase or decrease. The enlargement of one part of the body is necessarily accompanied by the shrinking of another part.

Doesn't that mean... that I, Cao, will be... in the future?

"Hehe...hehehe...he..."

Thinking of this, Cao Gui couldn't help but smile, his ideas growing bolder and his expression more and more smug...

"cough……"

Cao Gui patted his cheeks and quickly composed himself.

Combat power! Combat power is the most important thing!

Don't go to any strange or unusual places!

Thinking of this, Cao Gui's expression turned serious, and he raised his hand to open the system panel:

【Justice Naval System (Supporting Every Naval Soldier with a righteous heart)】

[Soldier's Name: Cao Gui (Naval Corporal, Swordsman Apprentice)]

[Merit Points: 33700; Experience Points: 30120/50000]

[Taoist Power Value: 215 (A standard reflecting combat power, not a factor determining combat power)]

Looking at the data on the system panel, Cao Gui knew that he was still a nobody. Without the help of the character card, he might not have been able to leave the vampire bar back then.

So what do we do now?

Should I continue saving money to buy Devil Fruits, or continue exchanging for the Navy's Six Powers?

Cao Gui chose to continue exchanging for the Six Powers of the Navy. Rather than pursuing the unattainable Devil Fruit, he decided to learn the Six Powers of the Navy in a down-to-earth manner and enhance his strength.

We need to get rid of the "small fry" label first.

"System, exchange for the Navy's Six Styles, hmm... Shave!" Cao Gui pondered for a moment before slowly speaking.

Currently, Cao Gui's fighting style generally involves using knives and guns, with very little use of fists and feet. Given this, the shaving technique, which allows for rapid movement, is a perfect fit for Cao Gui's current fighting style.

[The host has spent 10000 merit points to exchange for the Navy's Six Styles: Shave. Please confirm the exchange.]

"confirm!"

As soon as he finished speaking, a flood of knowledge poured into Cao Gui's mind: cultivation methods, combat experience, and techniques were all crammed in at once.

Cao Gui froze on the spot, his brain almost crashing due to the massive amount of knowledge, but fortunately he still had a little bit of strength, so he only froze for a moment before recovering.

"Aha! I've got a new skill! I can finally take off!" Cao Gui rubbed his hands together, his eyes gleaming.

Chapter 83 Small Toys

Seven days later,

In the presidential suite of a hotel in Kuching, Kalimantan.

Cao Gui, wearing only a pair of shorts, stood in the corner, breathing evenly. Then, his eyes suddenly opened, a glint of light flashing in them.

Six Styles - Shave!

With a soft whoosh, Cao Gui's figure vanished instantly, suddenly appearing in the center of the room. However, Cao Gui did not stop there. Holding his breath and concentrating, he activated the Shave skill again.

Six Styles - Shave!

Whoosh!

Cao Gui disappeared again, reappearing in another corner.

Six Styles - Shave!

clang~

The bathroom glass shattered on the floor. Then, blood slowly seeped from Cao Gui's feet. In no time, his feet and calves were covered in blood, which looked gruesome.

Cao Gui remained expressionless. "It's just a burst blood vessel, no big deal."

He took out a tourniquet from his system backpack, tied it tightly around his femoral artery, and then lay down in the bathtub, which contained a medicinal bath solution that Cao Gui had already prepared.

Ten minutes later, the wound began to itch, and the blood began to congeal. Cao Gui untied the tourniquet, which then slowly slid off, immersing his entire body in the medicated bath solution.

The system implanted the cultivation method of "shaving" and the combat experience and usage skills of some masters into Cao Gui's mind.

Just like when he exchanged the paper painting, it was like being taught step by step. After seven days, Cao Gui was able to barely use this martial art.

Shaving is a really powerful martial art, but it requires a lot of physical strength.

Given Cao Gui's current physical condition, he started to have blood vessels burst after only using it three times. Without these medicinal baths that are considered miraculous for recovery, it might take him several years before he could use this martial art with ease.

Cao Gui lay in the bathtub, pondering that the blood orchids he had should be enough for him to squander. Once he finished the Eastern European trip he had promised Beth, he could focus on cultivating and leveling up.

……

Eastern Europe, eastern Slovakia.

Sitwell and Rumlow, dressed in doctors' white coats, walked through the underground parking lot before getting into their car and driving away without looking back.

“Damn it, I think I’ll stick to being an action team member from now on. This kind of mission is totally not my thing,” Rumlow said.

"Don't worry, we've found a clue," Sitwell said with a smile.

After a week of infiltration, the two finally found a clue in this seemingly legitimate Al Labs: the "Super Soldier Project" was hidden elsewhere and would not intersect with the publicly known Al Labs.

However, the head of this Aier Labs branch they were infiltrating oversaw all of Aier Labs' branches in Europe.

The Potsdam human experimentation site that Sitwell and Rumlow recently dismantled was under the jurisdiction of this Ayr Labs branch.

However, the human experimentation bases they found earlier did not reveal any signs of the "super soldier" program; these human experiments were mostly focused on blood research.

Although it violates the law and ethics, it still does not fall under the jurisdiction of S.H.I.E.L.D.

Therefore, Sitwell and Rumlow had to risk going deep into the European headquarters of the Ayr Labs, and fortunately, they finally made some progress.

“Let’s go, let’s set off for Bratislava,” Sitwell said.

On the high-rise building, a pale-faced middle-aged gentleman sipped a glass of scarlet liquid, watching Sitwell and his companion gradually disappear into the distance.

"Sir, why not just kill them?" a portly middle-aged man asked from behind.

The pale-faced middle-aged gentleman slowly said, "I've seen that bearded man before; he's the head of S.H.I.E.L.D.'s operations team."

“With our strength, we can easily take him down,” the pot-bellied middle-aged man said.

The pale-faced middle-aged gentleman shook his head and said, "We are now a legitimate research institution, operating openly and in the public eye. We can't afford any problems."

"Are we just going to let them do whatever they want?"

"They like to investigate, don't they? Then let them do it. If there are any problems, that's the Lilith Club's business, not El Labs's."

"If S.H.I.E.L.D. dares to attack Aiur Labs without cause, then we can show them what the power of technology is!"

"Yes, I understand."

"Also, don't let your guard down. Tell the Lilith Club to prepare for battle and relocation. After taking care of those two, leave quickly and don't leave any evidence."

"Yes, my lord!"

At an art academy, life models stand on a high platform while students paint.

"Wow, this guy has a great body." Whitney continued drawing with her pencil in hand, but her lustful thoughts remained unchanged.
