"Dean of the Empire's Academy of Sciences?"
Hearing Enel's words, Judge was startled. The Holy Empire really came.
Just didn't expect them to come so fast.
"What to do? What exactly should I do? And how many people came?"
Unknowingly, without Judge noticing, his forehead was covered in cold sweat.
Judge is hypocritical and selfish, possessing the arrogance of royalty.
But similarly.
When encountering danger, Judge is also cowardly and would cry begging for help.
But now.
Who can save him?
"Holy Empire?"
Little Reiju and little Sanji were stunned.
So small.
Although they didn't understand much.
But seeing their usually strong father looking fearful at the mention of the Empire.
Obviously, the opponent is very powerful.
"Why, I actually want to laugh, they are clearly my brothers..."
Two-year-old Sanji glanced at Ichiji, Niji, and Yonji lying on the ground, life or death unknown.
These three, although tiny two-year-olds like him, had bullied and mocked him for a long time.
Little Sanji didn't understand.
Maybe their brains were broken.
"Step, step, step..."
Steady and powerful footsteps came.
When Judge looked over, he saw two men in white coats walking in.
The leader was elegant, wearing gold-rimmed glasses, his face somewhat pale.
A step behind was a man with round-rimmed glasses, smiling, playing with a scalpel in his hand.
"Get out of the way!"
Instantly arriving beside Judge, Enel kicked him.
"...Damn it."
Seeing Enel's unhurried kick trampling on royal dignity, Judge's expression turned fierce.
He also raised his leg.
Electromagnetic Crack!
Dense high-voltage current appeared on his tech boots, capable of inflicting physical and electric shock damage.
"Yahahaha, playing with electricity in front of this God, are you trying to make this God die of laughter?"
Before the words fell, Enel erupted with lightning disdainfully, far more magnificent than Judge's electricity.
"Rumble-Rumble Fruit?!"
Seeing Enel's leg turn into lightning, Judge's heart shook.
Instantly thought of that Devil Fruit evaluated by the world as almost invincible.
Boom!
Two legs collided.
Current exploded.
Judge instantly felt a violent energy shatter his tech boots, his whole body went numb, and he flew backward directly.
Bang bang bang!
Smashing through several pillars in succession.
Judge half-knelt on the ground in a sorry state.
His body was covered in scorch marks, and the mask on his head shattered.
"Father!"
Reiju and Sanji exclaimed.
Queen Sora ran over.
"Yahahaha, do you think this God spent these days in the Academy of Sciences for nothing!"
Enel spoke arrogantly, this was the point he respected Orochimaru the most for.
Although he dissected him, cough.
But he explained a lot about the application of lightning, enlightening him, amazing him!
The most basic.
"Electricity generates magnetism, magnetism generates electricity."
Orochimaru also arranged many development directions for Enel, such as increasing voltage while strengthening current intensity.
Although voltage and current are directly proportional, current sometimes causes more damage.
There are direct lightning strikes, electromagnetic pulses, ball lightning, cloud-to-cloud lightning, etc.
Also.
Super lightning.
He also let Enel simulate, learn, and apply all possible lightning born in nature.
"Nature is the best teacher for Logia ability users."
Finally, increase lightning temperature.
One must know.
In the daily world, lightning temperature ranges from 17,000 to 28,000 degrees, 3 to 5 times the temperature of the sun's surface.
Although it erupts instantly.
But it is still terrifying.
Changed to the Blue Sea Realm, the limit temperature of the Rumble-Rumble Fruit is uncertain, but it may be increased even higher.
"Also, Lord Orochimaru said there must be insulators like rubber ability users in this world. I also want to eliminate this weakness. The simplest way is to kill them directly upon meeting."
"Technology is power."
"Sorry, Grand Captain Obito, I am an intern at the Academy of Sciences."
Directly abandoning a certain Uchiha Obito, Enel wanted to follow the footsteps of the Academy of Sciences.
"Lord Orochimaru, please sit."
Then, Enel respectfully invited Orochimaru to sit on Judge's throne.
"Thoughtful..."
Orochimaru chuckled lightly.
Making Enel feel like a spring breeze, full of emotion.
Indeed.
Comparing that kid Obito with Lord Orochimaru, that guy only knows how to cheat people.
"Pfft cough cough..."
Signaling Sora and the children to step back, Judge spat out a mouthful of blood, stood up with a gloomy and heavy expression.
Yakushi Kabuto said calmly: "You are welcome to resist. Of course, if you rely on the Germa Kingdom's troops, I advise you to give up."
What does that mean?
Judge was stunned, then horrified.
The opponent could enter here as if walking on flat ground, and until now no soldiers had come in.
Obviously solved the army outside, but he didn't notice at all.
What strength?
Those soldiers were modified, cloned, fearless of death, absolutely obedient, definitely elite soldiers of the North Blue.
But all were silently solved.
Judge's heart sank to the bottom.
"You should know the greatest value of the Germa Kingdom."
Orochimaru raised his hand slightly, a cup of tea appeared. He drank a sip calmly and prepared to put it down. Enel quickly held it with both hands, waiting at any time.
Glancing at the long-eared monster.
Yakushi Kabuto expressed admiration.
"...."
The opponent's calm appearance made Judge inexplicably panicked.
Orochimaru looked at Judge calmly: "Don't make me feel that you have no value, okay?"
Drip!
Drip!
Under little Sanji's shock, his father Judge was sweating profusely, drops falling constantly.
Obviously, Judge was nervous.
He didn't know why he was so afraid; that invisible oppression made him scared.
"Judge, hand it over..." Sora said softly from the side.
If even life is gone.
What is the point of guarding those things?
"Okay... I... I'll hand it over."
After finishing this sentence, Judge collapsed on the ground, his eyes listless.
Dream, completely shattered.
Years of hard work, how ridiculous in the face of absolute power.
"?"
Enel was surprised.
His face was full of contempt for Judge.
Delusional about unifying the North Blue, without a bit of courage.
If Judge dared to loudly refute Orochimaru, Enel would look at him with new eyes.
Judge: Refute? You're waiting for me to fall into the trap, I'm not an idiot.
"Reiju..."
Looking at the uneasy little Reiju, Judge said dejectedly: "Go to the second drawer of the red cabinet in my room, password 110, take it out, quickly."
"Yes, Father."
Little Reiju turned and ran.
Then, Judge said in a deep voice: "Since you are the Dean of the Academy of Sciences, you should understand that some things are mysterious."
"My Germa Kingdom's supreme treasure touches the domain of gods."
Domain of gods?
Enel said disdainfully: "Ask you a question, can that supreme treasure make people immortal?"
Judge was stunned.
Enel continued: "Can it make people no longer need to eat, drink, or sleep?"
Judge was confused.
Enel continued: "Can it make people born with powerful strength?"
Three questions, all describing the gods of the Celestial Realm, all of which the gods possess.
But hearing the last question, Judge immediately said: "Of course, Ichiji has a superhuman body after modification, tough skin, strong recovery, and will be stronger with exercise when he grows up."
"Those three pieces of trash?"
Enel was slightly surprised.
Then looked disdainfully at the three brats who were kicked and almost dead.
Judge's face turned black: "They are only two years old! Still children!"
"Heh."
Enel was even more disdainful, pointing casually to the side: "Modification, I think they are not as strong as that little yellow-haired kid."
Little Sanji: ????
Judge was exasperated.
The third son is a waste, how can he compare with Ichiji? What kind of eyes does this person have?
But what made Judge even more annoyed and confused was Orochimaru said calmly: "I tell you with certainty, those three on the ground will definitely not be as strong as this child when they grow up."
Little Sanji: I was praised by this lord? Inexplicably so happy.
"Why?!"
Judge retorted loudly for the first time.
Dignity is gone.
But Orochimaru is shattering his philosophy, shattering his cognition as a scientist.
"Life without emotion fundamentally fixes the upper limit, erasing all potential."
In Judge's sluggishness, Orochimaru spoke slowly: "People like you don't understand what a strong person is at all."
"A strong person has the strongest heart."
"Your heart is dead."
Dead?
Isn't that a waste?
Judge looked dazed.
Eliminating the children's emotions makes them stronger because he thinks emotions like sympathy and kindness only make people weak.
At this moment.
"Father..."
Little Reiju ran over.
Carrying an ornate box in her hand.
Whoosh!
Orochimaru raised his hand to pull it over. After opening it, there were thick documents and several jars of various colors inside.
Seeing this scene, Judge cheered up again and said in a deep voice: "Recorded inside is the biological lineage factor accidentally discovered when I was developing weapons with Vegapunk when I was young."
"Also the blueprint of life."
"Once discovered, the height can be said to touch the domain of gods, even making the World Government deem it extremely dangerous, arresting Vegapunk, only I escaped."
Orochimaru did not speak.
But Orochimaru noted the name Vegapunk; White Zetsu also mentioned it.
A scientist called by people of this world as having wisdom surpassing humanity by 500 years.
"Life replication and modification."
"Artificial Devil Fruit conjecture, human gigantification conjecture, human enhancement conjecture, strongest weapon conjecture..."
"Lineage factor, storing all information about life species, birth, growth, death, etc.?"
Orochimaru murmured the opening paragraphs, the more he looked, the more wrong it felt.
Yakushi Kabuto said in surprise: "Isn't this DNA?"
"Genetics of the Academy of Sciences."
DNA?
Genetics?
Judge was stunned.
What are you talking about?
Orochimaru flipped through it casually and said calmly: "Not entirely genetics, can only say partially similar, but there are also many new knowledge points that can bring me new ideas."
"These things have the value to let you live."
Orochimaru was certain.
Recorded inside were some basic things and conjectures. Obviously, Judge's research was not deep, so he went a bit astray.
Deeper level technology.
Might be in Vegapunk's hands.
"Phew..."
Judge breathed a sigh of relief.
Even offering the most precious lineage factor, just to live.
Enel stepped forward and said calmly: "Listen, from today on, you are no longer royalty. Disband the Germa Kingdom."
"You, join the Empire's Academy of Sciences to serve. Your family becomes citizens of the Empire."
Saying this, Enel glanced at the unconscious Ichiji and the others, sneering: "Necessary to remind you, the Empire's laws are strict. If you make a mistake, no one can save you!"
"Giving you three days, take your family to report to the North State!"
As the words fell, Orochimaru didn't look at Judge, stood up and left.
Yakushi Kabuto and Enel also followed.
Ten minutes later.
After the three were completely far away.
Judge ran out of the hall like crazy, checking various ships like crazy.
But those cloned and modified soldiers all suffered unknown damage.
All breathless.
"Dead, all dead!"
"Ahhh, Holy Empire, what a cruel heart!"
Judge roared, almost vomiting blood and dying.
Anger attacked the heart.
Fainted.
