[83]Vinsmoke Technology and Judge

"It really is Germa?"

Doflamingo stood beside Ian, his tone slightly grave. "Ian, have you ever heard of the Vinsmoke Family legend?"

In the North Blue, the names Germa Vinsmoke are truly believed to stop babies from crying at night.

The Germa Kingdom briefly unified the entire North Blue, and the Vinsmoke Family, who ruled Germa, became the royal family of the North Blue.

Although the Jack Kingdom's rule over the North Blue was short-lived, the vast North Blue kingdom was quickly destroyed by government intervention, and the Germa Kingdom even lost its territory, becoming a kingdom adrift at sea.

However, this does not mean that the Germa Kingdom has fallen into silence.

Putting aside other matters, the current head of the Vinsmoke Family, Vinsmoke Judge, when he returned to the North Blue, beheaded four King in one fell swoop, creating a horrific massacre of four nations.

"Although the Germa Kingdom is now in decline, they are still renowned war experts in the North Blue. They acquire wealth by accepting contracts to participate in wars."

Doflamingo said, "Fufufufu, I guess they've been hired by this country to quell the rebellion. What a coincidence."

"Vinsmoke Judge,"

Ian chuckled. "He used to be a member of MADS, the research organization led by Vegapunk, and was a colleague of Uncle Queen."

It wasn't just a matter of colleagues; Uncle Queen was also very resentful of Judge, much like Caesar was towards Vegapunk.

"MADS?"

Doflamingo tried to recall, but couldn't remember.

But Queen certainly knew that.

A high-ranking officer of the Beasts Pirates.

Is that guy friends with Vinsmoke Judge?

Doflamingo naturally misunderstood.

So he said, "Fufufufu, is that so? Since we're friends, there's no need to fight. Shall we go say hello?"

"Friend?"

Ian couldn't help but laugh.

If Judge were placed in front of Uncle Queen, he would probably want to skin Judge alive.

Between colleagues, that's where naked hatred resides.

Ian thought about it again, "But you're right, we should definitely go and say hello."

Judge's two proudest achievements are that he can no longer use the Lineage Factor modification technology, but the Battle Suit is still very appealing.

Hmm, it seems like we don't really need it.

However, it would be perfectly fine for Yamato and Jack to use it, which would essentially be equivalent to a second type of Devil Fruit ability.

"But before that,"

Ian looked down at the several colorful little devils on the battlefield. "Interested in seeing the Vinsmoke's technology?"

"In addition,"

He turned around.

The white-haired girl was staring at him expectantly.

Go have fun.

"Yay!"

Arriving together, the girl, who had been unable to contain herself any longer, cheered and was launched into the air like a cannonball, before plummeting downwards in an instant.

"The Three Worlds Return - Naraku is Drawn!!"

The spiked club, now completely white, crashed down, smashing the ground and creating a huge crater. White mist billowed out, and everything it touched was instantly frozen into ice sculptures.

"What?"

The green-haired brat noticed Yamato falling. "Who is that guy?"

"Is he/she also a cyborg?"

The fiery red-haired brat's eyes lit up. "She's Ice? Then I'll go teach her a lesson!"

He is fire.

"Ha ha!"

Yamato looked around. The Vinsmoke Family soldiers, fearless and relentless, surrounded her. So Yamato raised her spiked club, then casually flicked it, "Phantom Blade."

The white mist transformed into a circular slash that spread outwards, sweeping across the entire area in an instant, and many Germa around were directly swallowed up by the white mist.

When the fog dissipated, the surrounding area was filled with ice sculptures.

"Oh!"

Even Doflamingo couldn't help but gasp in surprise.

This performance isn't actually that exaggerated.

But this demon princess hasn't even used her powers yet, right? How did she manage to freeze everything?

"Spark Revolution!"

At that moment, the Red-Haired boy charged towards Yamato, intending to burn the woman to a crisp with his flaming fist!

but,

A dark figure descended from the sky and casually grabbed his fist.

"What?"

The red-haired brat, Vinsmoke Ichiji, the eldest son of the Vinsmoke Family, six years old this year, stared in disbelief.

This suddenly appearing black-haired bastard actually grabbed his flaming fist with his bare hand!

"Is this also fire?!"

With his hand wrapped in Haki, Ian offered a sharp comment. "To be honest, it's not that hot to the touch."

"Fufufu, of course you shouldn't compare yourself to him, Ian."

Doflamingo landed with a grin.

"You bastard!"

Ichiji shouted angrily, leaping into the air and unleashing a whip kick.

Ian simply released his right hand, then lightly tapped it with his right index finger.

Finger Pistol!

Ichiji's right leg twitched as if he had been electrocuted, and then he was thrown back.

"Oh?"

Doflamingo raised an eyebrow.

It's very sturdy, despite this Battle Suit looking quite soft.

With his discerning eye, he could certainly see that Ian's seemingly casual strike was more powerful than a musket Fire Pistol.

However, they couldn't budge that Battle Suit at all.

"Pretty good, Vinsmoke technology."

Ian said softly.

But has Judge already developed Battle Suit these days?

"Double Spark Revolution!"

Enraged by the mockery, Ichiji unleashed flames from his hands and lunged at Ian once more.

He was greeted by a finger.

Ian poked the kid's forehead with his index finger.

"Forehead!"

Ichiji's eyes rolled back instantly, Ian poked a dent into his forehead, and he flew out like a cannonball, crashing heavily to the ground.

"Ichiji!"

Not far away, the pink-clad girl, Vinsmoke Reiju, the eldest daughter of the Vinsmoke Family, exclaimed in surprise.

Who is this guy?

"Hahaha! That idiot Ichiji! He was taken down in an instant!"

The green-haired brat, Yonji, couldn't help but burst into laughter at his eldest brother's miserable state. "Good riddance! The Vinsmoke Family has no need for trash!"

"That's right!"

Niji, the second son with blue hair, also grinned. He had already electrocuted David until he was foaming at the mouth and collapsed. He arrived at the scene the moment his older brother died and mocked, "Just as useless as Sanji! Hey! You unknown guy! Hurry up and kill him!"

"..."

Reiju lowered her eyes.

Her brothers were not like her; they lacked human emotions such as sadness, pain, and anger. They were killing machines crafted by their father.

"Fufufufu, is this the Vinsmoke Family?"

Doflamingo couldn't help but exclaim in surprise, "What a loving and respectful brotherly relationship!"

He treated Rosinante quite well.

"But Ian, since we're going to talk, is killing him really a good idea?" He had some doubts; hadn't this kid poked a dent in his forehead?

"Look closely, Doflamingo,"

Ian simply strolled forward, looking down at the unconscious Ichiji. "This is Vinsmoke's technology."

"Hmm!"

Doflamingo was slightly taken aback. "It seems... it really is something else."

The hole in Ichiji's forehead on the ground had now healed as if he had never been attacked at all.

This is a custom-made exoskeleton for Judge's sons, possessing not only hardness exceeding that of steel but also the ability to automatically regenerate.

Of course, Ichiji and his companions' exoskeletons are far from fully developed.

In the original work, after Sanji Awakening the power of his Lineage Factor, he was even able to stand and fight against Seraphim, who had replicated the bloodline of the Lunarian.

"Hahahaha! Although you did a great job, you should still die!"

Laughing loudly, the blue Niji arrived, crackling with electricity.

"Let me hang you!"

Yonji, with his green hair, swung two nooses at Ian.

Ian smiled, grabbed Niji's head with his left hand, and pulled on the noose with his right, dragging Yonji over as well. "Then let me also assess your abilities."

"Quack! Let me go!!"

Niji unleashed his lightning with all his might.

Hmm, it feels a little numb.

"You bastard, I'll break your hand!"

Yonji grabbed Ian's hand, intending to break it.

He was much stronger than his two brothers.

So why did Judge separate all the abilities? Wouldn't it have been better to give all the abilities equally to everyone?

Do you really think mass-produced machines are inferior to prototype machines?

Or was it the similarity in skill levels that prevented him from forming a five-color team?

"Divine Foot - White Snake Drive!"

A bolt of Inazuma.

A white Inazuma instantly pierced through the entire Germa army formation, and with the white flash appeared countless soldiers flying through the air.

"War Cry!"

Yamato gripped Kenjiro Two Yamato both hands, and white mist rose from the spiked club.

With a powerful flick of his hands, the white Shockwave pierced through the army formation like a spear.

Wherever it passed, all the soldiers were frozen and then blasted apart by the Shockwave.

That's really exaggerated.

Doflamingo, gazing at Yamato's performance, couldn't help but marvel.

With that kind of strength, if she used her abilities, Pica and the others would be no match for her at all.

but.

He glanced at Ian.

Well, after looking at this guy again, I immediately realized that Yamato is quite normal.

"Interesting technology, I need to go talk to Judge."

Ian casually grabbed the two kids and slammed them together. With a clanging sound, the two kids rolled their eyes and slid to the ground. Then he turned his head, looking at the pink-clad girl not far away, and said...

The girl in pink paused, then raised her hands in surrender.

Would you mind if I came along?

Doflamingo said with a grin.

"Oh?"

Ian raised an eyebrow. "Aren't you going to rescue David?"

That guy is still unconscious on the battlefield; he might get trampled to death at any moment.

"Fufufufu, anyway,"

Doflamingo said, "Has everything been proven?"

Ian laughed and launched himself into the air.

Doflamingo followed closely behind.

The rear of the Germa Kingdom's army.

"What?"

Judge noticed something was wrong.

The army at the front is in complete defeat!

Someone is committing indiscriminate slaughter!

It seems that Ichiji and his group have also run into trouble.

Judge's expression visibly panicked.

Those children were his life's hope!

The revival of the Vinsmoke Family and the reconquest of the North Blue depend entirely on them!

Judge decided to go and see for himself.

but.

"Vinsmoke Judge, I've heard Daimyo about you."

As a boy's voice, which was going through puberty, rang out, two figures landed one after the other.

The boy in the lead smiled and greeted Judge, "I've heard quite a few stories about you guys from Uncle Queen."

This is no joke; Uncle Queen is a big mouth. If you flatter him a little, he'll blurt out everything.

I really heard a lot of inside stories about the MADS organization from back then from him.

This includes the fact that they created the number one android, Stussy.

You mean Queen?!

Judge's expression changed.

Then, after he clearly saw Ian's face, his expression twisted even more grotesquely. "You are—"

"Ian of the Scorched Sky!!"
