The expression on Borsalino's face remained unchanged. Hidden by his sunglasses, no one knew where he was looking at this time.
"Is this the same type of person? Haha, is this what Carl is talking about?"
As he spoke, he stretched out a finger, and a cross-shaped golden light flashed on his fingertip. Some diners who heard the movement and looked here were directly flashed by the light and closed their eyes.
Akainu crossed his arms and said solemnly,
"Borsalino, put away your powers!"
The light on Borsalino's fingertips instantly went out. He stood up, clasped his hands together, and bowed to the diners around him to apologize.
"Oops, I'm really sorry everyone, I got a little excited."
After saying that, Borsalino selectively filtered out some bad sounds and sat down on his own. When he looked at Carl again, he was stunned.
A pair of Carl's pupils were seen rotating like two vortexes, vaguely emitting a suction force.
As he watched, Borsalino instinctively felt uncomfortable. He looked away, not wanting to look into Carl's eyes again.
Akainu also noticed strange phenomena on Carl, but he didn't feel any awkwardness.
Carl's eyes returned to normal. He smiled and praised,
"That just now was probably Borsalino-senpai's ability. It's such a gorgeous ability."
Borsalino did not answer the question and said seemingly casually,
"Brother Carl is also a person with abilities. What a terrifying ability. Can you tell me what your ability is?"
"This will be kept secret for the time being. Anyway, we will meet again soon. Senior, how about you let me keep it a little mysterious?"
"Haha, of course!"
Borsalino didn't mind either. Unless the person himself is too famous for their fruit abilities, the fewer people know about them, the better.
And from Borsalino's point of view, he only showed a little bit of his abilities, and he didn't show what kind of ability he had. Anyway, he just didn't suffer.
But he never thought that Carl would be a time traveler and already knew a lot about him and Akainu.
Next, several people stopped discussing this topic and started chatting. Under Carl's deliberate guidance, the atmosphere became harmonious. Even Akainu, who had always been averse to words, took the initiative to say a few words.
After all the dishes on Borsalino's table were served, the two tables even shared dishes that the other didn't have. Akainu even reluctantly gave up and gave Kuma one bowl of the two large bowls of white rice he ordered.
There is also an episode: Ginny's big eater made Akainu, a straight man, develop a competitive spirit.
Although Ginny didn't pay attention to Akainu at all, in Akainu's heart, how could a grown man like himself not be able to eat more than a "weak woman" who was less than half his weight?
He completely forgot about what he said at the beginning, "Don't eat too much," and just showed off by eating the barbecue on the plate.
After showing off the last plate of barbecue, Akainu glanced at the stacked dinner plates in front of him with satisfaction, and looked at Ginny out of the corner of his eye. This look made him confused on the spot.
The plates in front of Ginny could be described as a mountain, but her mouth was still busy. She picked up a large piece of barbecue and put it in her mouth.
Carl and Kuma on the side had long been accustomed to this kind of situation. Kuma had already turned to the Bible, and Carl was still helping Ginny roast meat.
Akainu touched his bloated belly and lowered his head silently, acquiescing to his defeat.
Seeing Ginny eating the barbecue with relish, Akainu couldn't help laughing, thinking that he was really stunned, actually comparing himself with a girl.
Not only did he not feel lost in his heart, but he felt extremely relaxed.
For Akainu, who had been hanging out with Borsalino at Marine School, this experience was really novel.
After eating countless plates of barbecue, Ginny happily picked up a tissue and wiped her mouth. When she looked up, she found that Carl and others were looking at her with a smile.
Two blushes appeared on her pretty fair face. Ginny leaned against Carl and whispered,
"Why are you looking at me like that? The food here is really much better than the food in Sorbet Kingdom, so I can't help but eat more..."
Carl gently pinched Ginny's little nose and smiled,
"Okay, eat more if you like. There will be many more opportunities like this in the future."
Borsalino raised his hands and said in a cowardly tone,
"Let me interrupt, Teacher Zephyr is very strict. Sakazuki and I haven't been out for two months, so you'd better be mentally prepared."
"Ah? Why is he like this..."
Ginny's mouth tightened, and she suddenly felt that the future was gloomy.
Carl was about to comfort her with a few words, but she suddenly thought of something and said happily,
"It's okay! We have Kuma here, so we can run away if we want!"
Kuma cooperated by raising the pads in his palms, indicating that he was always at her disposal.
Borsalino and Akainu also noticed Kuma's palm. They looked at each other and Borsalino whispered,
"Is he another Devil Fruit user? Today's newcomers are so scary!"
When it was time to check out, Carl put a huge amount of banknotes on the counter with a wave of his hand, and said to the clerk very arrogantly,
"I will pay for the consumption of these two tables, and any extra will be treated as a tip."
Garling had sent Carl a lot of pocket money over the years. As for how much he had sent, it was already an astronomical figure.
Take Borsalino for example. Judging from his salary as an Admiral in the future, he would only get a fraction of Carl's pocket money after clocking in diligently for 180 years.
What's more, Borsalino was still a student. He was mentally estimating how many bananas Carl could buy with that note.
Sakazuki suddenly said with a serious face,
"Carl, we don't need the money from our table. Borsalino said he would treat us this time."
"Sakazuki, you talk a bit too much today. I still like the taciturn you used to be."
"?"
God knows how much Borsalino wanted to punch Akainu now. He looked at the clerk with a smile, pretending to take out his wallet.
Carl held his hand and said seriously,
"I've already paid. I'm very happy to meet these two seniors. Let me express my gratitude to you!"
Borsalino's hand "slipped" and the wallet that had just popped out of his pocket fell back. He said,
"Brother Carl, you don't need to be so polite. What's wrong with seniors? Just call us by our names in school from now on! You agree, right? Sakazuki!"
Akainu watched Borsalino's movements throughout. He rolled his eyes and turned his head to express that he did not recognize this embarrassing guy.
After saying goodbye to Carl and his group, Borsalino and Akainu returned to the school dormitory.
Before the two of them got their butts warm, someone knocked on the door.
"Borsalino, Mr. Zephyr wants you to go to his office."
