Judge's Ambition
The palace of the Germa Kingdom, perched atop a snail's back, welcomes guests today.
"Welcome, Mr. Sirius."
Mr. Judge, the patriarch of the Vinsmoke Family, the main villain in the comic book and regarded as a demon by the children of North Sea, was all smiles as he led his guests into the palace.
The guests were, of course, Sirius and his companions.
The battle ended after Judge arrived.
Although the three Vinsmoke brothers lack normal human emotions, they are still unable to disobey Judge's orders.
After Judge ordered a halt, they naturally lost the ability to continue their attack.
Sirius didn't care, after all, King Judge had already lowered himself so much, he was practically begging to lick Sirius's shoes, so he couldn't find a reason to continue fighting.
After the battle ended, Judge earnestly invited Sirius and the others to come over as guests.
Sirius and his companions became guests, while the three brothers who had started the fight were now confined to their quarters.
"Excellent, King Judge."
Sirius surveyed the interior of the palace.
Extremely luxurious.
Although Sirius didn't know much about this, he could still tell that the palace was made of the finest materials and decorated in the best possible way.
Even after a century of exile at sea, they still pursue a high quality of life.
"It's the most luxurious place I've ever been," Sirius said.
"You're too kind, Mr. Sirius."
In response to Sirius's praise, Judge smiled and said, "It's just a trivial thing."
"Insignificant? Haha."
Sirius chuckled and stretched leisurely. "By the way, King Judge, is the banquet ready? I can't wait to feast."
Judge quickly replied, "I'll arrange it right away."
He turned to his eldest daughter, who had been following him, and said, "Reiju! You go and entertain Mr. Sirius and the others for a bit."
Then, he left in a hurry.
"Everyone in the Sirius Pirates, please come with me to the reception room to rest for a bit."
Princess Reiju, the eldest daughter of the Vinsmoke Family, is a girl with short pink hair. Her appearance, demeanor, and tone are all quite elegant, truly embodying the image of a princess that exists in people's mouths.
"Princess Reiju, right?"
Sirius ignorance, replied earnestly, "There's something I'd like to ask of you."
Kindness?
What help can this woman offer?
Jack was somewhat surprised.
"Forehead--"
Similarly, Princess Reiju had been quite composed just moments before, was also somewhat puzzled by Sirius's serious attitude.
What merit or ability did she have to help this man in front of her?
This man is a monster whose very name terrifies my father!
After hesitating for a moment, Reiju said cautiously, "Mr. Sirius, please speak."
"Could you transform and show us?"
Sirius asked earnestly, "Poison Pink, could you transform?"
Huh?
Reiju was taken aback.
"Please be sure," Luo said solemnly.
"What are you two up to?!" Jack's forehead veins bulged.
What was I expecting just now?
"This is Poison Pink!" Luo said seriously. "I've only ever seen it in comic books, I never thought I'd see it in real life!"
"Who cares about you!"
Reiju hesitated for a moment, then said, "If this is what you Mr. Sirius, require—"
Sirius eventually witnessed the Germa Battle Suit transformation process firsthand.
Unfortunately, it doesn't have the flashy special effects of magical girl transformations in anime.
The canisters that Germa use to transform are not canisters at all; they are the Battle Suit themselves. Once activated, they immediately shatter and then reassemble on the host's body.
The transformation was completed in the blink of an eye.
That's true. In the heat of battle, danger can strike at any moment, leaving little time for posing.
The process was anything but glamorous.
Princess Reiju, however, became even cuter after dressing up.
On the way to the lounge with Reiju, Law said heavily, "This is not what I imagined."
"As expected, it still needs to be made more elaborate, right?"
Sirius nodded in deep agreement, "Such gorgeous clothes, yet they wear them in a simple and unpretentious manner."
"It would be best to extend the time a bit,"
Luo made a suggestion. "It will be even clearer and easier for people to understand; that's a remarkable change."
"You could even add some music during the transformation."
"A brilliant idea! Captain, you're a genius!"
Reiju, who was leading the way, twitched at the corner of her mouth.
There's something strange about these guys.
Jack, his face sullen, said, "Those two bastards!"
"Sirius is one thing, but why did Luo become like this too?" Black Maria said helplessly.
Bepo whispered, "Brother Luo becomes like this when he encounters something he's particularly interested in."
"Isn't this wonderful?" Yamato a smile. "Sirius is very happy."
"You can still laugh?"
Maria said helplessly, "Sirius seems to really admire Reiju after her transformation."
"But Sirius just wanted to see the transformation," Yamato asked, surprised.
"... I don't know whether to say you're overconfident or simply don't understand."
"Huh? What?"
"I just don't understand what's going on with you guys at all."
After a short rest, the banquet began.
The attendees consisted of nine members of the Sirius Pirates and two members of the Vinsmoke Family.
The dishes were very plentiful.
Sirius showed no hesitation and began to feast.
Although he had already eaten a round, it didn't affect his good appetite.
"Oh! This looks good! I'll try this Yamato!"
"It's delicious!"
"Big brother, this is delicious too!"
It's very noisy.
Yamato, the Ulti and her brother, and Bepo are almost all just like him.
When faced with delicious food, it's impossible to control oneself.
Only Law, Hiyori, Maria, and Jack were able to control their image to some extent.
Reiju looked at Sirius with curiosity.
This group of people was unlike any of the pirates she had ever met before.
While eating, Sirius spoke up, "Speaking of which, King Judge, I've heard Teacher Queen mention your name before."
"Queen? Oh,"
Judge nodded knowingly. "You mean that guy? He did join the Beasts Pirates. Mr. Sirius, you call him teacher?"
"Kindness,"
Sirius casually remarked, "Teacher Queen taught me a lot."
"That guy? Ha." Judge chuckled. "He's certainly got a knack for human modification."
Why does it seem like Teacher Queen was being looked down upon?
Is this the only area where you're skilled?
"By the way, Mr. Sirius," Judge suddenly asked, "What are your plans next? The government should be on high alert for you by now."
Jack frowned. "What are you trying to do by asking this?"
"Don't misunderstand, I didn't mean to pry into your secrets," Judge quickly said. "It was my presumption."
"It's not some secret that can't be told."
Sirius laughed and said, "We just want to wander around."
His words seemed fine at first glance, but when they reached Judge's ears, they took on a different meaning.
Judge's eyes lit up, and forcibly suppressing his excitement, he said, "So that's how it is, Mr. Sirius, you were indeed hiding from the government too!"
"How about we cooperate with the Vinsmoke?"
He exclaimed excitedly, "With your strength combined with our military power, we can take Beihai from the government and establish a vast kingdom of our own!"
"That way, we won't have to worry about government threats anymore!"
