A tattoo in the form of two texts but its combination was similar to a tree and it was marked in his chest.
He felt the overwhelming vitality coursing in his whole body.
The Suppression that came from all corners of the forest went like smoke and in contrast, he felt the affection that came from the whole forest.
Like it was treating him as one of them, he sighs of relief and wipes his cold sweat in his forehead 'i almost a goner'
He looked at the faint glow in his chest through his shirt.
He removes his shirt and looks carefully at the symbol that was imprinted in his chest, and while looking at it a hovering text appears in his vision.
Vitality Tree Runes (950/1,000): Runes form in the understanding rules of a mutated tree. A rare hybrid tree that possesses an astonishing resistance in cold and heat, has a powerful regeneration and rejuvenation ability. Can absorb the energy in a plant or tree (have storing energy of 1,000 energy)

That's why he felt that feeling of having a surge of vitality in his whole body because of automatic activation of skill Basic Rejuvenation.
He succeeded!
He was basking in joy when a punch landed in his head and because his mind was focus and occupied by decoding the rules of the big tree that he didn't notice Old Geez.
"Ouchh who?", he looked at the person standing on his back while holding his swollen lump in his head.
"What? you keep lazing around like a nobility? huh!? Come with me, we'll go fishing!", Old Geez grabbed his neck like a kitten picked up on a road.
"Heyy stop Senior Geez! I don't know how to swim! I'll clean the road and help wash the pig! I just don't want to go to the sea.", he pleaded.
I don't know how to swim and even if I know, I can't! I'm a devil-capable user.
"hahaha! you'll come with me even if you don't want to hahahaha!" he starts to struggle hard, but the iron grip of the Old Geez didn't even budge.
'Please Help me! I don't wanna die!'

Later Evening, he is tired as hell walking to the hut of Mother Riz.
He opens the door of the hut and enters, ignoring the look of the villagers.
He activates the basic rejuvenation of the Runes, and a green aura spreads in his body, eliminating his tiredness.
He grips his hand and feels his newborn stamina 'Great ability!'
"Pate are you there? Come in here, the food is ready!", Mother Riz shouted reverted to the living room.
'ow right' "Coming!"

In the far-away sea
A pirate ship sailing coursing ahead.
In the deck, many pirates are doing their own thing to pass the time, gambling or chatting their latest killings, pillaging and raping to their satisfaction.
"Hey, why the Drath fangs bastard taking so long, we almost sailing in a week just to tail their traces. The captain is pissed now", one of the crew said, changing their way of chatting.
One of them spits in the ground expressing his disdain to the Drath Fang Pirate "I heard that a group of backstabbers break the agreement, Captain and Drath Fangs make a deal to a nobleman. but the thing is we are doing is to kill all of the witnesses, and the Drath Fang should pick the dead body of the target."
"Ehhh that's why the captain is pissed off, our part is done efficiently, but that group can't even pick a weak child" retorted one of the crew, smashing his fist to the table that cracked loudly.
"We didn't even have a chance to go kill and pillage in a whole week! if I see them I'll rip them apart!", venting his anger to the table.
"Heh, can't take it anymore?", a menacing atmosphere breaks the momentum of this group conversation.
They look frightened and almost stop their breathing, in front of them is a guy with a large body with a height of four meters.
He's like a giant among the crew with a broad body of a bear, just his mere presence was like you are bathing in blood.
"T-torres? W-we didn't m-ean that w-way", stuttering of the crew and want to explain his way out.
This is Torres with a 12 million berry reward issued by the World Government and Marines.
"Heheh don't worry, We are nearing the island and we'll going to massacre to our heart content.", he said while thirsting for blood and violence, almost transforming his eyes to the eye of a predator and doubling the pressure and reek of blood in the area.
"Whooo blood! blood! blood! blood!" a cheering of madness heard in the ship.
In the morning pate wakes up early to do his chores and when he is done he calls little jas.
"Jas, come! I'll show you something", pate beckoning little Jas to come closer
"What?", little Jas walk near Pate.
"Wait! listen, what I am gonna do is a little secret between us okay?" little jas nodded.
"Good, I'll tell Mother Riz, just I have to do some tests. so please you won't rat me out okay?", little jas nodded and put her hand in front of him, she just wiggles her pinky finger and he just looked dumbly in her hand.
'really? Did I become a kid?'
"Okay! Pinky promise!" he just let it slide and threw this memory to the trash bin and be forgotten for the rest of his life, for eternity!
"Okay! here it goes", he put his hand on the shoulder of little Jas and focus his mind on transferring the runes in his chest.
A hovering text appeared in his vision.
+ Transferring a saved rune in the data name Buff Runes?
» Yes
» No
The saving of rules or laws of a certain thing like the tree yesterday becomes data and information that can be saved in his consciousness.
He saved it and put it in the category
it is one of the leftover functions of the waste system that he accidentally found while tinkering with the rules.
Then he looked at the inquiring sentence hovering in front of him 'Yes!'
