Furukawa Osamu remained calm and asked a simple question. By this time, Luo had already seen the soldiers raising their dark gun barrels, and sweat involuntarily beaded on his forehead. He pursed his lips and loudly replied:
"No, I want to go back to Spydamelz!"
"You see, young people are unwilling. I think you should give me your knowledge without reservation!"
The smile vanished from Furukawa Osamu's face, and he looked calmly at Judge, who was furious upon hearing these words. He had gone through countless hardships to escape the MADS Peace Research Institute, and knowledge was his life.
"presumptuous!"
"It's an honor for you to give me the Op-Op Fruit. I'm not some nobody like Doflamingo, and the Navy can't protect you!"
"Leave the person here, and I'll spare your life! Don't blame me for not giving you a chance; this is my final warning!"
Flames suddenly erupted from beneath Judge's feet, and he quickly retreated. Then, he raised the golden spear in his hand and looked at the three of them with disdain.
Reiju led her younger brothers to their father's side. A hint of reluctance appeared on the girl's face. This handsome man was about to die here. She knew that her father would stop at nothing to achieve his goal.
Luo subconsciously swallowed. The older man looked very strong, and he wouldn't doubt the marksmanship of those well-trained soldiers.
This invitation was clearly a conspiracy, and Germa's "legendary power" left Law feeling somewhat desperate.
"Baby-5, transform into blades!"
"Yes, Boss!"
Although the girl was terrified, she didn't think too much about what Furukawa Osamu was asking for. Just like in her daily practice, she instantly transformed into a long, curved sword.
"The blade isn't long enough; my body definitely needs to grow..."
Furukawa Osamu gripped the longsword and offered his assessment. Baby-5 didn't dare to offer his usual criticism, but as black, domineering energy instantly enveloped the blade, he instinctively let out a low cry:
"My body is completely filled!"
Judge chuckled. He wasn't some ignorant pirate. His right hand, gripping the spear, pressed a switch, and a violent current surged from the spear, crackling and electrifying the air. Only then did he begin his explanation:
"Clumsy Armament Haki is no match for the power of Germa science!"
"Kid, here's one last thing for you..."
As Judge was speaking, his eyes suddenly widened. The moment Furukawa raised his sword, the blade began to crackle with blackish-purple lightning. At the same time, a golden light appeared in his scarlet eyes, and a violent aura erupted.
"boom!!"
Conqueror's Haki mixed with unknown energy that Judge couldn't understand swept through the entire room. The ground where Furukawa Osamu was standing cracked instantly, and the clone soldiers around the room rolled their eyes and collapsed to the ground in unison.
Reiju and the other three fainted instantly. Before losing consciousness, they had no idea what had happened, only vaguely seeing their father kneeling on the ground as well.
When Furukawa saw Judge kneeling on the ground, leaning on his golden spear, he was about to try to wrap his Conqueror's Haki around the blade when Judge suddenly swayed and collapsed to the ground with his eyes rolled back, just like the four children.
Sweating profusely, Luo's legs gave way, and he sat down on the ground, muttering unconsciously:
"Is...is this...over already?"
Baby-5, now transformed into a longsword, cheered and brandished the black blade at Luo, who lay on the ground:
"Did you see that? Boss and I defeated the evil Germa!"
Furukawa breathed a sigh of relief. He had even expended precious Sage Chakra to convert his eye power into an attack enhanced by the Takamura Spirit Lord. This Judge was clearly weak, yet he had a higher level of prestige than Doflamingo.
"I shouldn't have only looked at the protagonist's information... I suffered a huge loss..."
"build?"
Luo didn't hear what was said. Furukawa Osamu threw the long sword into the air, and Baby-5, dressed in a black and white maid outfit, reappeared.
"Go find the others in the castle. I've controlled the range of my domineering aura; there should still be some maids who haven't fainted yet."
"Let's borrow their camera. Since the King of Germa likes taking pictures so much, and we're already here, even if we don't manage to take any knowledge with us, it would be nice to have some commemorative photos!"
"what?!!!"
When Law heard this, his jaw almost dropped to the ground. Taking a photo with the king rolling his eyes in Germa's stronghold? That just doesn't make sense, does it?
"oh!!"
"I'll go borrow a camera!"
Baby-5 cheered and ran off. Law held his forehead, still unable to adapt to the situation. He had just been thinking about how to use the power of the Op-Op Fruit to get through this crisis.
A few minutes later, Baby-5 entered the room with her maids. Upon seeing the king rolling his eyes, the maids all gasped in surprise.
"Your Majesty!"
"Alright! Remember to find me some good angles!"
"Yes, Boss!"
Osamu Furukawa stepped on Judge's face, who was wearing a golden helmet. He struck a pose similar to the previous photos, crossed his arms, and let Baby-5 jump around in front of him to take pictures.
"Click! Click! Click!"
With a sharp pain in his face and a faint cracking sound, Judge groggily regained consciousness. It took him a while to realize what had happened. He roared in grief and anger and tried to stand up.
Furukawa Osamu's right palm instantly turned black, and a dark purple aura gathered and flowed. With a low shout, Judge immediately let out a scream.
"Empty palm!"
"Ugh... Ah!!!"
"Old man, hand over all the knowledge and technology related to bloodline factors, or I'll turn you into a human stick!"
"You just pointed the spear at me with your right hand, didn't you? Let's start with your right arm!"
With a blank expression, Furukawa Osamu issued his final ultimatum, and a black, domineering aura once again emanated from his right palm.
As his body convulsed, Gaji wanted to hurl harsh words, but sensing the sharp aura and seeing the killing intent in Furukawa Osamu's bloodshot eyes, he immediately cried out in despair:
"Xiu...Xiu-sama..."
"I am willing to offer you my knowledge; the Kingdom of Germa is your home..."
Judge's face turned red as he spoke these words. He could not die yet. Germa's legacy could not be destroyed in his hands. His skills were not yet perfect. He still had too many things to do.
"Very well, a wise man submits to circumstances. Consider this one arm a lesson for your disrespect today!"
"No! Ah!!"
Chapter 5 Bloodline Factors and Shanks (10,000-word chapter)
In early July of 1528 in the Sea Calendar, after climbing nearly 7 meters up the red earth continent, the enormous snail-shaped ship began a new journey.
When Osamu Furukawa's spirit descended to this planet, he even took a trip to the moon. At that time, he looked at the planet and felt that it was very large.
Now that he has arrived on the red earth continent in the clouds, Osamu Furukawa has a new understanding of the size of this planet.
Considering that the red earth continents that encircle the planet and divide the oceans might not have been formed naturally, Osamu Furukawa became increasingly curious about the planet beneath his feet.
Before his official arrival, Osamu Furukawa had been trying to "communicate with the planet," but to no avail.
Compared to Earth in the ninja world, this planet is more like an "autist," locking its energy away and running silently.
"Incredible! The Red Line is so big!"
"No wonder Doflamingo has always been afraid of the Navy. To control the import and export of the Red Line, it must require a huge number of Marines..."
As Luo gazed out from the stone castle in Germa, he felt as if he could reach out and touch the clouds. The red earth stretched as far as the eye could see, a breathtaking sight that books could not describe.
After watching for a while, Furukawa Osamu stopped paying attention to the affairs of this continent.
The snail ship has an automatic navigation function, and Germa, as the only World Government member state without land, certainly has its unique advantages.
"It takes three weeks to cross once, and we still have one week left. Let's continue collecting data."
"It's rare for the stingy Judge to be willing to share his top research results, so we mustn't let him down."
Furukawa Osamu's words elicited a strange look from Luo; in his view, "sharing" was more like robbery...
However, considering that most of the people in Beihai are bullies who prey on the weak and fear the strong, the king's behavior is quite normal.
"I can't analyze it; this technology is completely different from the medical skills I've learned!"
"The king's four children are only 11 years old at most, but their arm strength is already at an adult level, much stronger than me and Baby-5 who ate Devil Fruits."
"In addition, some of his physical attributes even surpass those of adults, and his learning speed is exceptionally fast. He's practically a 'superhuman' from a comic book!"
Luo frowned as he thought of those children. Modifying his own children seemed cruel to him. The technology was obviously flawed, and those three little devils didn't look normal at all.
"Superhuman? That's a very apt description."
"We also need this technology, and once we master it, we can optimize it. Don't underestimate the power of your fruit."
"Theoretically, you can observe and perceive any reaction that occurs in the body."
After a brief word of encouragement from Furukawa, Luo suddenly felt the pressure. He understood the allure of the Op-Op Fruit to some people, and there might be more trouble to come.
Luo also knew about the "anti-aging surgery." Just because Furukawa Osamu wasn't interested didn't mean that others who knew the inside story didn't yearn for it. Humanity's pursuit of immortality has never stopped.
"I understand. I will definitely write down all those documents and data."
Luo responded earnestly as he jumped down the steps, whispered "Room," and immediately switched places with the stones thrown from below.
Not far away at Germa's training ground, Reiju, Ichiji, Niji, and Yonji were all doing obstacle course training. The four children were more agile than the adults and were sprinting almost the entire way.
With his right arm in a sling, Judge watched as Furukawa Osamu fell from the sky, his eyes twitching. Even after more than a week, he still couldn't forget that humiliating scene.
Although his right arm was saved, the combat suit's material technology was completely stripped away by the opponent. Even the incomplete combat suit data was still the culmination of his hard work!
"Lord Xiu, how is it?"
"After observing for a few days, what are your thoughts on my children?"
Judge smiled kindly at Furukawa Osamu, who had come to his side. Furukawa's understanding of the human body was clearly based on extensive experimentation, and some of his suggestions were worth considering.
Seeing the four children fiercely battling the clone soldiers with wooden swords, Osamu Furukawa observed for a while and then gave the same answer as before:
"The absence of fear can sometimes hinder progress; emotions can be transformed into a powerful force in this world."
"Unwavering resolve is strength! Conversely, wavering in one's beliefs may even diminish one's domineering presence."
"It may sound unscientific, but it's true. Emotions are a great catalyst, and these children all have some defects."
Judge looked surprised. He didn't question Furukawa Osamu; on this vast ocean, the strong were indeed different. He suddenly thought of another "failure," but ultimately shook his head in response:
“Emotions are a double-edged sword. What I need are strong warriors to lead the Germa soldiers.”
“Reiju and the others were created for this purpose; the boredom and emotional fluctuations of humans can become obstacles on the battlefield.”
"For the next generation of products, I will consider optimizing the emotional aspects. This is a great direction, and we can develop it together!"
Furukawa Osamu nodded in agreement, then beckoned to Baby-5, who was panting heavily on the training field, and called out:
"You did a great job, take a break!"
"Huh...huh..."
Baby-5, now dressed in a black training outfit, leaned on her knees, panting heavily. Looking at the four "superhumans" who had left her far behind, she shouted with some resentment:
"I haven't finished the sparring session yet..."
Law simply used his Devil Fruit ability to transfer Baby-5 over, and whispered an explanation:
"Your body has reached its limit, don't try to compete with a genetically optimized child."
"Damn it...they're about the same size..."
Baby-5 complained somewhat dejectedly that the girl named Reiju was much stronger than her, with incredibly tough skin and bones. Reiju had eaten a Devil Fruit, yet Baby-5 was no match for her at all.
The lab assistant in charge of recording the data was a short, bespectacled old man. After scribbling on the paper, he reported with a look of delight:
"Lord Xiu, Your Majesty, the data for the four individuals has improved further compared to last week."
"They have developed an 'exoskeleton,' and their flexibility and wrist strength have also greatly improved. The relevant data is all here."
"Their physical attributes have already surpassed those of adult males, and the genetic factors continue to play a role."
Furukawa Osamu took the folder, glanced at the data, and handed it to Gaji beside him. Gaji examined it carefully, then laughed heartily, a look of pride on his face, and said:
"Excellent! As expected of Germa's top technology!"
"Once the combat uniforms are perfected, Germa will surely regain its former glory!"
"Ahem... Of course, we will always be Lord Xiu's staunch allies."
Upon hearing His Majesty's words, the staff members silently lowered their heads, their obsequious expressions resembling those of sycophants...
Although Furukawa Osamu was surprised by the influence of the bloodline factor, some things were not suitable to be discussed in front of children. Judge treated children as scientific products, but he still preferred to treat children as normal human beings.
