Chapter 149

Sanji gritted his teeth.

We can't stop!

This can't end here!

Rear Admiral Naito trains every day until all his muscles are twitching. Even if I can't reach that level, I absolutely cannot stop here!

Stand up!

Get up! My body!

Sanji roared inwardly.

And so, a switch that had long been loosened was finally turned on completely with the help of this belief.

"Forehead!"

Sanji's eyes widened instantly.

What is this feeling?

The skin and muscles all over his body were pulsating, and a powerful force suddenly surged from the deepest part of his body, making his exhausted body full of vitality again.

What happened?

What exactly happened?

Sanji looked up blankly.

"Hey, kid,"

Garp, looking utterly astonished, stood before him. "What happened to you? Your aura changed instantly!"

"I... I don't know!"

Sanji raised his hands blankly, clearly sensing the power surging within his body.

What happened?

What exactly happened to me?

"What's wrong, Mr. Garp?"

Binz, who was practicing his Armament Haki, quickly walked over upon seeing this. He looked at his little brother with some anxiety, "What's wrong with Sanji —hmm?"

He paused for a moment, "Sanji, your eyebrows—"

Because he was covered in sweat and his hair was completely soaked, Sanji's right eyebrow, which was originally hidden under his bangs, was now visible.

"Eyebrow?"

Sanji subconsciously raised his hand and touched his eyebrows.

Wrong!

His curled eyebrows all point to the right!

But now, his left eyebrow has curled to the left, and both eyebrows are now symmetrical!

"What exactly is going on?"

The thirteen-year-old boy asked in a somewhat panicked tone, "Am I sick?"

"It shouldn't be."

Naito walked over, squatted down, and reached out to pinch Sanji's arm. "It's so hard. It's not from illness, it's more like Awakening."

"Awakening?"

Sanji stared blankly at Naito.

"Let Judge take a look,"

Naito said, "He should be the most qualified to speak on this."

It was a little faster than I expected.

Soon after, King Judge arrived in haste.

"Rear Admiral Naito, what happened?"

Judge was still a little confused about the situation.

Naito pointed at Sanji, who still looked bewildered. "Give Sanji a check-up, Mr. Judge."

"Um?"

Judge looked at Sanji, his eyes filled with disdain. "What's wrong with this kid?"

"No,"

Naito said quietly, "It seems he's Awakening the power of his Lineage Factor."

"What?"

Judge's expression changed drastically in an instant, and he looked at Sanji in disbelief, "He's Awakening?"

How could that be!

This kid doesn't actually have the ability to obtain Lineage Factor, does he?

Upon hearing Naito's words, Sanji was equally incredulous. "Rear Admiral Naito, you're saying I 'Awakening my Lineage Factor? Am I... am I going to end up like Ichiji and the others?"

Is he going to become like those bastards, devoid of normal human emotions?

"We'll know once Mr. Judge examines it."

Naito said.

Without Naito even having to urge him, Judge had already squatted down.

There was no need for any other instruments; Judge simply grabbed Sanji's arm forcefully.

So hard!

Judge's expression changed drastically once again.

Without a doubt, this is an exoskeleton!

No further checks are needed.

Although he was many years behind his brothers, Sanji did indeed Awakening his own Lineage Factor ability!

Judge's gaze toward Sanji was filled with an indescribable complexity.

So, this kid wasn't a good-for-nothing after all?

He was just a little slower than Ichiji and the others.

At this moment, a strange emotion began to spread through Judge's heart.

In other words, how could his technique possibly be wrong?

Oh, I was just a little late! My skills are indeed perfect!

Then, the thought that popped into Judge's mind was, "In that case, should I bring Sanji back?"

Now that I'm no longer useless, I can fight as a warrior to revive the Vinsmoke family!

As for whether Sanji, who is extremely hostile towards him, is willing to come back—

If the Lineage Factor ability Awakening, then the iron law engraved deep within the Lineage Factor should also be revived.

Obey!

The children who were given the power of the Lineage Factor by Judge are absolutely incapable of disobeying his orders!

This is a rule that Judge set from the very beginning!

Chapter 104 The Mighty Sanji! Beneath the Red Line

All I can say is that Judge is indeed an incredibly pragmatic person.

He discarded Sanji like trash when he had no value, but when he realized he could use Naito to Sanji favor with Knight, he was willing to give Sanji a battle suit. Now that Sanji Awakening his Lineage Factor ability, Judge immediately wants to take him back.

Seeing the constantly changing expression on Judge's face, Naito knew without guessing what the old man was thinking.

Unfortunately, Sanji was the right-hand man I chose.

"So Judge,"

Naito asked knowingly, "What's Sanji's current situation? Is it confirmed that his Lineage Factor ability Awakening?"

Judge looked up at Naito. "It seems very likely now, but to be sure, I need to take the kid back to the lab for a checkup."

"I don't want to!"

Sanji shoved Judge's hand away without hesitation, staring intently at him. "You'd better stay away from me, you bastard!"

"Sanji!"

Anger instantly surged within Judge, "Listen to me!"

Only.

"Go to hell!"

Sanji Judge in the face.

"Wow!"

Judge wasn't a cyborg with Lineage Factor; he was just a scientist with some fighting skills. He was knocked to the ground by Sanji's punch, and his eye socket instantly turned bruised.

But Judge found even more unbelievable than the physical pain was that Sanji didn't respond to his commands at all!

What's going on? Wasn't his Lineage Factor Awakening? Why isn't the underlying logic working for him?

In that instant, a face flashed through Judge's mind.

Sora.

Is it because of the medication you took?

Sora is Judge's wife and the mother of the five Vinsmoke siblings.

After giving birth to Reiju, knowing that Judge was going to transform the quadruplets in her womb into bloodless and tearless fighting weapons, the mother took some kind of drug in an attempt to eliminate the Lineage Factor of her four brothers.

Although Judge discovered the problem and intervened quickly, some impact was still caused.

Judge at the time that Sanji's inability to inherit the Lineage Factor was due to the effects of the drugs.

But now it seems that's not the case!

"I'm not going to that damn lab!"

Sanji instantly flipped to his feet, "I feel great now..."

That's what he said.

But Naito saw an indescribable panic and helplessness on the boy's face. "You don't look like you're feeling good."

"Sanji?"
