Pirate: My Piltover technology is far ahead!

Chapter 56 What if Charlotte Linlin had trained properly?

Siddirell Leriana, who was three years old and 1.1 meters tall, did not yet show any unusual physical characteristics, which was normal at sea, since she had not yet reached puberty.

However, Oran has recently noticed that Leriana's growth rate has started to accelerate, and she has to change her shoes every two weeks.

In terms of physique, she didn't have the chubby figure that Charlotte Linlin had when she was a child. Her more reasonable training methods made her slimmer, but both her muscle and bone density have surpassed the concept of ordinary people.

If Charlotte Linlin was a bit chubby when she was a child, then Lyliana is now purely lean and muscular.

Although Feld was several times her height, it didn't matter.

The original Charlotte Linlin went mad at the age of five due to an episode of food cravings, which eventually led to widespread destruction in Elbaf.

The legendary old pirate of the giant race, and one of the previous captains of the Giant Warrior Pirates, Waterfall Beard Yoruru, wanted to kill Linlin at that time, since she had already been regarded as an evil god.

However, five-year-old Charlotte Linlin managed to knock him down, ultimately causing the older Yoruru to suffer serious injuries and die.

Although she was two years older than Lyriana at that time, Charlotte Linlin had not undergone any training and spent her days eating and drinking. Even though Yoruru's strength had declined due to age, her weight was still there.

Feld was thrown like that and he's not seriously injured. If word gets out, it will only add to his mystique.

Unless he mentions it, no one will know exactly how old the other person was when he committed the act.

Feld is still in a daze, not to mention him, even Feld's men are in a daze.

"I said, what should we do now?"

"What do you mean, what should we do? The boss isn't even angry. Do you still want to cause trouble? It's just that my niece fell down. It's not a big deal. The boss is pretty sturdy."

Feld didn't give them any instructions, and their boss called the other party "brother" right from the start, so this should be considered a family matter, at least that's what they thought.

"Excuse me, Uncle, I thought you wanted to play that game with me."

Leriana realized she had thrown the wrong person; this wasn't how Kate usually sparred with her.

Three-year-olds are not at an age where they know nothing. Because they are more innocent, they are even more sensitive to emotions than adults and have their own judgment on right and wrong.

Because Leliana is a clone, she matures even earlier.

If you encounter a child of similar age who is unusually willful and annoying, it is most likely a problem with their family. Their upbringing has instilled in them the idea that they can get everything by being willful, which has led to the final outcome.

Theoretically, a clone's personality should be close to that of the original, or have similar habits. Charlotte Linlin's nature is good, but she cannot control her power, nor does she have a suitable person to guide it.

If the kingdom she was born into had a broader vision, Charlotte Linlin would have been the best asset to that kingdom's rise to power on this ocean where individual strength can change the world.

Oran is guiding Leliana's growth; he doesn't want to raise a problem child who will cause him trouble in the future.

"It's alright, it's alright, it was my carelessness, otherwise..."

"One more time?"

"Ahem, Anna, your father and I have something to talk about. I'll play with you another time when I have more time."

Feld initially wanted to stick to his guns and conclude that he had been careless and hadn't flashed.

But Leliana's mind was simple right now, and she didn't have any scheming thoughts. She instinctively felt that Feld was serious and immediately wanted to play with him again.

He was careless last time, but this time he knows the rules, so even if he gets thrown out again, it's justified.

Seeing Leliana's gleaming eyes, Feld immediately stopped himself and took back what he was about to say. He didn't want to be used as a punching bag by the little girl.

"Riley, you go to our new house with Kate and the others first. I'll come find you in a bit."

"OK."

Kate and Blitz, along with Leriana, followed Feld's men to the place Feld had arranged, while Frankenstein remained there.

"You've raised a wonderful daughter. When she grows up, she'll be your greatest asset."

Watching Leriana skip and hop, Feld sighed inwardly. "She can already beat him to a pulp at three years old. If she's thirteen, she'll probably be famous all over the world."

Having lived in the underworld, Feld knew the importance of confidants. Having someone you could trust meant you could act freely in many things.

There are many conflicts within the family, but relatively speaking, family members are more trustworthy than outsiders. Feld can sense that Leliana has a sense of dependence on Oran, and he believes that the value of this relationship in the future will certainly not be low.

"Let's get down to business. You weren't just trying to get Riley away from us, were you?"

Oran did not answer Feld's question, but instead asked Feld what he wanted to discuss.

"Haha, of course not! Our chance to make a fortune has come again. We have a new business opportunity, and if it goes well, it's a gold mine that we can never finish mining."

Shortly before MADS was ordered to disband by the government, I received new information: the Navy is very interested in your prosthetic body, and if things go well, it could be a long-term arms deal!

War has never been lacking on this sea. Pirates run rampant, and conflicts between nations are commonplace. While the four seas are relatively peaceful, the Grand Line is rife with war. Under such circumstances, arms manufacturing naturally becomes a highly profitable industry.

"The Navy? What do they mean by that?"

"Regarding matters such as the installation of prosthetic bodies for wounded soldiers, we would also like you to provide them with technical guidance. After all, they are the Navy, and they cannot keep buying things from us like ordinary customers."

However, this is just an intention at the moment, and more issues still need to be discussed.

You were already teaching surgical techniques in this area, so that's not a big problem. I know you can make more than just prosthetics; you might even be able to open the door to the arms trade.

Don't forget me then; just remember that the funds will flow through me.

Feld had a clear understanding of his own position. He couldn't get involved in every business. His alliance to take down Piekro was driven by profit, but there were some profits he couldn't get. Being able to get a piece of the pie was already pretty good.

"It's taking a little longer than I expected. Was there some catalyst that prompted them to do this?"

Although the versions currently in circulation are the most basic civilian versions, the principle that technology can be upgraded is not complicated. However, the Navy's actions are much slower than Oran had anticipated.

"Haven't you been reading the newspaper lately? Look at this, those of us who gave free surgeries back then actually made quite a contribution."

[Iron-Armed Mitt is promoted to Navy Headquarters Captain, marking a career transition from sheriff to naval officer.]

"The reporter's skills are lacking; this headline is completely unappealing. But Mitt... he actually joined the Navy?"

"I don't know when he joined the Navy, but anyway, this kid has made a name for himself with the hand you gave him. In short, it's not a bad thing."
