"Everyone, attack!"
Vinsmoke Judge had donned his Raid Suit as well. Gripping a long spear, he pointed it at Uchiha Tamaharu and gave the order.
"Yes, sir!"
Vinsmoke Judge's sons Niji and Yonji answered at once.
Then they charged toward Uchiha Tamaharu.
"Genjutsu: Sharingan!"
The Three-Tomoe Sharingan in Uchiha Tamaharu's eyes spun rapidly.
The three Vinsmoke brothers stopped dead the moment they drew near him.
"Not again!"
"Even Ichiji and the others can't resist this power?"
Vinsmoke Judge had just been about to move, but his body immediately stiffened in place.
His face was full of disbelief.
Once again, something he'd been certain was impossible had happened.
"Take him down."
Uchiha Tamaharu gave the order.
"Whoosh!"
Without hesitation, the three brothers turned and charged toward Vinsmoke Judge.
Seeing this, Vinsmoke Judge flew into a rage.
NTR'd right in front of him again.
This time, were his sons going to call a thief their father?!
"I'm your father! Snap out of it!"
Vinsmoke Judge was no weakling, but he still struggled to deal with all three of his sons.
He kept shouting, convinced that his sons were possessed.
He wanted to bring them back to their senses.
"Sparking Valkyrie!"
Vinsmoke Ichiji punched his own father in the stomach.
"Henry Punch!"
Niji wasn't about to be outdone.
He seemed to be saying, "Father, I'm going to give you acupuncture!"
"Winch Heavy Blow!"
Yonji said he'd give his father a back massage, then slammed a fist into Vinsmoke Judge's back.
Vinsmoke Judge gritted his teeth and took his eldest son's blow to the stomach, while swinging his spear to knock his other two sons away.
Arcs of electricity ran along the spear, striking them both.
He wanted the electric shock to bring his sons to their senses.
But it didn't work.
The three dutiful sons kept crowding around their father, each seeming to curry favor with him and earn his approval.
"Damn it, how could this happen?!"
For a moment, Vinsmoke Judge felt as if his whole world had crumbled.
He'd worked so hard for years, modifying and raising his sons. Why had things turned out like this?
How had they been controlled so easily?
Was he raising someone else's sons for them?
Uchiha Tamaharu calmly watched this tender scene between father and sons from the sidelines.
He knew people in this world were tough. They wouldn't be killed in a hurry.
If Vinsmoke Judge really looked like he was in danger, he'd step in and stop things from going too far.
He had to teach the man a lesson the first time, or he'd probably cause trouble again later.
If Shisui's Kotoamatsukami didn't have such a long cooldown, he'd definitely have Shisui brainwash the man.
A life-saving ability like that was better saved for something more important than this. Besides, Uchiha Tamaharu was confident he could subdue the man and make him obey.
"These three punks really are strong. They're fighting at Elite Jonin level."
"They've got plenty of stamina, too. If they keep going, the three of them could take on someone at Kage Level without much trouble."
Uchiha Tamaharu shared his assessment with Itachi and Izumi.
Their fighting style was too simple, but also the most effective: they were like ninja who specialized in a single ability.
"They'd be very difficult to defeat," Itachi judged.
They were all incredibly fast. The fastest of them could even break the sound barrier.
Only Rob Lucci could reach that speed when going all out.
The other CP9 agents weren't even in the same league.
"These three are easy to control. It takes about as much chakra as using genjutsu on an ordinary person, and they barely resist at all."
Uchiha Tamaharu explained.
When he'd first used genjutsu to control the three brothers, even he'd been puzzled.
It had been far too easy.
After all, he hadn't been able to control Rob Lucci with his Sharingan before.
His ocular power had increased several times over, but surely that didn't explain how easily he could control all three brothers and make them attack their father.
Uchiha Tamaharu's words astonished the two teenagers.
They'd both tried using genjutsu on people in this world, and it hadn't been easy.
"May I ask what brings you to Germa 66, Lord Uchiha Tamaharu of the Shichibukai?"
"If my younger brothers have offended you, please accept my apologies."
While the father and sons were having their tender reunion, a beautiful, alluring woman appeared nearby.
She looked at Uchiha Tamaharu with deep wariness.
Dozens of fully armed soldiers followed behind her.
They were the backbone of Germa 66, the Science Unit—and its true fighting force.
Yet she spoke with great courtesy.
She seemed like a gentle, demure young woman.
Uchiha Tamaharu smiled.
"Stop."
Just as the three dutiful sons were about to use their combined technique, Mixed Color Burst, to finish their father off, Uchiha Tamaharu told them to stop.
The three of them halted at once and stood motionless.
Vinsmoke Judge was battered and bruised, with plenty of internal injuries. His face was full of fury.
"Can you talk calmly now?"
Uchiha Tamaharu looked at Vinsmoke Judge and asked him.
"What exactly do you want?"
"A Shichibukai?"
"Germa 66 is entitled to attend World Government meetings. We're practically half a World Government Member State!"
Vinsmoke Judge was seething with anger.
But after hearing his daughter speak, he came to his senses and stopped attacking.
Instead, he eyed the man before him warily.
He was also making his status clear: attacking him violated the World Government's agreements, so Tamaharu had better not do anything reckless!
"I heard you're an expert on Lineage Factors, so I came to ask for your help."
"My bloodline keeps regressing, but it can sometimes Awaken when stimulated. There are side effects, though. I want you to fix the flaw in this bloodline and make it function normally."
Uchiha Tamaharu spoke bluntly.
Other than this family of five, everyone else was basically just a tool. They wouldn't let any information slip.
"There's actually a bloodline like that?"
"Giants?"
"Or Merfolk?"
Hearing this, Vinsmoke Judge's anger faded for a moment, replaced by confusion.
Bloodline regression was perfectly normal, but the fact that stimulation could trigger an Awakening was unexpected. Bloodline regression was usually irreversible.
"The bloodline behind these eyes belongs to the Uchiha Clan."
Uchiha Tamaharu stared straight into Vinsmoke Judge's eyes with his blood-red Sharingan.
The moment Vinsmoke Judge saw those blood-red eyes, he was startled.
He hadn't had time to notice them earlier, since the three dutiful sons had been chasing him around and beating him up.
"Uchiha?"
"Uchiha Tamaharu!"
"So that's your clan!"
Vinsmoke Judge quickly put the name together.
Then his face lit up with excitement.
Research material he'd never seen before!
A powerful bloodline!
How interesting!
