Kapitel 46: Chapter 46:Gifts of Power and the Vinsmoke Alliance
Jason surveyed the gleaming fortress of Germa 66 from the command center, his intense golden eyes fixed on Judge Vinsmoke. A plan had been set in motion, one designed to bring the formidable scientific kingdom under his complete control. And now, he would take the next steps—ensuring Germa 66 became an asset in his rapidly expanding empire.
"Judge," Jason's voice was smooth but commanding. "Call your children to the main lab. Tell them it's a matter of importance."
Judge hesitated, his jaw tightening as he considered Jason's orders. Despite the searing resentment in his eyes, Judge knew that resistance was pointless. Law, standing beside Jason, held Judge's heart carefully enclosed in his Room, a silent reminder of the control they wielded over him. Finally, Judge reached for the den den mushi and contacted his eldest child.
"Reiju," he said, his tone stern but reluctant. "Gather your brothers and meet me in the lab. There's something you all need to see."
On the other end of the line, Reiju's voice sounded puzzled. "Understood, Father. We'll be there shortly." She paused, and Judge, giving Jason a quick, uneasy glance, added, "Reiju, you will be joining Jason's crew from now on."
Silence lingered on the line before Reiju's calm voice responded, "As you wish." There was a note of surprise in her tone, but she remained dutiful.
With a nod from Jason, Judge put down the receiver and waited. Ten minutes passed in tense silence before the Vinsmoke siblings—Reiju, Ichiji, Niji, and Yonji—filed into the lab. Their expressions ranged from curiosity to irritation. Reiju's eyes lingered on Jason, and though she masked her surprise well, Jason noticed her glances of silent calculation.
Judge forced a look of authority and cleared his throat. "Children, this is Jason, an ally with whom we've come to an… agreement. Reiju will be joining his crew."
Ichiji's eyes narrowed, while Niji smirked, clearly intrigued. Yonji glanced between his siblings, a mixture of arrogance and curiosity on his face. "And why are we here, Father?"
Jason stepped forward, a small smirk curving his lips. "I have a gift for each of you, to ensure you understand the importance of our alliance."
Reaching into a storage bag, Jason activated his System Treasury, pulling out four unique Devil Fruits. Their vibrant colors and swirling patterns seemed to radiate power, instantly capturing the siblings' attention. Each Devil Fruit represented a new realm of strength, tailored to complement the Vinsmokes' existing skills and technologies.
Jason first approached Reiju, holding out a magnificent fruit. Its color was dark blue, with streaks of yellow crackling through it like lightning. "Reiju," he said, "this is the Tori Tori no Mi, Model: Thunderbird. Eating it will allow you to transform into a Thunderbird—a legendary bird that can summon storms and command lightning. It will amplify your abilities, enhancing both your power and resilience."
Reiju took the fruit with steady hands, her gaze meeting Jason's. A flicker of gratitude crossed her usually composed face. "Thank you, Captain."
Jason gave her a slight nod, then turned to Ichiji, offering a fruit that seemed to pulse with a metallic sheen. "Ichiji, this is the Enjin Enjin no Mi, the Engine-Engine Fruit. It will turn you into a walking powerhouse, granting you the ability to create internal engines that amplify your speed and strength. With this, you'll have a level of mobility and power previously unimaginable."
Ichiji took the fruit with a curt nod, his red eyes gleaming with anticipation. "I won't waste it."
Next, Jason extended a strange, spiraling fruit towards Niji. Its surface shimmered like mercury. "Niji, this is the Kōsoku Kōsoku no Mi, the Speed-Speed Fruit. It will allow you to move at incredible velocities, far surpassing what your enhanced Germa body can do alone. You'll be able to unleash lightning-fast attacks and become nearly untouchable in battle."
Niji's lips curled into a smirk as he took the fruit, excitement flashing in his eyes. "Sounds like a perfect match."
Finally, Jason turned to Yonji, offering a stunningly beautiful, crystalline fruit that glinted like a jewel. "Yonji, the Kesshō Kesshō no Mi, the Crystal-Crystal Fruit. It's a Paramecia-type that allows you to create and manipulate crystal. You'll be able to craft barriers, weapons, and even reflect light to create illusions. Your defense and offense will both reach new heights."
Yonji's eyes sparkled as he accepted the fruit, his grin widening with satisfaction. "This'll do just fine."
Judge watched as his children received their gifts, his expression a conflicted mix of resentment and grudging admiration. Jason, catching Judge's gaze, reached into his bag one final time and withdrew a heavy sack, filled with glimmering bars of gold. He held it out toward Judge.
"This," Jason announced, "is 20 billion berries' worth of gold. Consider it your funding for the research and development of raid suits and any other technological enhancements I expect from Germa. Think of it as an advance—there will be more when you meet my expectations."
Judge's eyes widened slightly, taken aback by the sheer wealth now in his possession. He managed to nod, albeit stiffly. "This… will certainly accelerate our research."
Jason's smirk returned. "Good. That's only the beginning, Judge. But remember, I'm investing in results. For the next six months, I'll be overseeing the training and development of your kingdom personally."
The Vinsmoke siblings shared a glance, realizing the gravity of Jason's intentions. Jason intended to reshape Germa 66 entirely, converting the kingdom's elite army and advanced technology to his own purpose.
The following months were grueling but transformative for Germa 66. Jason drilled the Vinsmoke siblings rigorously, pushing them far beyond their limits to master the abilities of their new Devil Fruits.
Reiju trained high above the cliffs surrounding the fortress, her form often concealed within dark storm clouds. Jason helped her hone her control over her thunderous powers, teaching her how to channel lightning into devastating attacks. Her legendary Thunderbird form, with its wings of crackling lightning, could create storms and summon bolts that struck with pinpoint accuracy. Under Jason's instruction, Reiju's already formidable strength grew, her speed and precision unmatched among her siblings.
Ichiji, equipped with his Engine-Engine Fruit, became a force to be reckoned with. Jason guided him on using the internal engines of his Devil Fruit to boost his physical prowess. During their training, Jason and Law would spar with Ichiji, pushing him to master explosive bursts of speed and power, allowing him to strike with relentless efficiency.
Niji, now a master of speed, became capable of moving in a flash, his attacks nearly impossible to dodge. Under Jason's tutelage, he learned how to use his Speed-Speed powers in tandem with his combat skills, performing hit-and-run strikes with ruthless precision. Jason encouraged him to develop techniques that would make him elusive on the battlefield, a blur too fast to be seen.
For Yonji, Jason worked with him to refine his mastery over crystal. Yonji learned to create crystalline shields and weapons, gaining the ability to shape and manipulate crystal in intricate ways. Jason showed him how to use light to refract and reflect, creating optical illusions and diversions that disoriented his opponents.
Meanwhile, Jason placed Law and Bepo in charge of overseeing Germa's soldiers, reshaping them into a formidable army. Law's tactical mind and Bepo's new lunar powers brought a new discipline and strength to Germa's forces. Under their combined leadership, the soldiers underwent rigorous training, learning to adapt their formations, weapons, and tactics to complement the powers of their leaders.
Judge, though still resentful of Jason's dominance, began to see the potential in the new Germa 66. The kingdom's resources, technology, and manpower were all being directed with deadly precision, transforming them into a formidable weapon under Jason's control.
As the six-month mark approached, Jason stood on the balcony of Germa's central tower, gazing over the kingdom he now controlled. The once-proud Vinsmoke Judge was now his puppet, his children his disciples, and his soldiers an extension of his will.
Law joined him, nodding in approval as he looked out over the transformation. "Judge has his pride, but he can't deny the results. Germa 66 is stronger than ever."
Jason smirked. "Pride is irrelevant. What matters is loyalty, and Judge has learned who holds power here."
Behind them, Reiju, Ichiji, Niji, and Yonji approached, each standing taller, their powers honed and their loyalty pledged to Jason. In Jason, they had found a leader who demanded their respect—not just through bloodlines or birthright, but through raw, undeniable strength.
Jason turned to face them, a cold gleam in his golden eyes. "You've all done well, but this is just the beginning. The world is full of forces that oppose us, and with Germa's resources under my command, we'll conquer them all. You are now part of something greater than a kingdom—you're part of an empire."
The Vinsmokes nodded, a fierce determination shining in their eyes. Under Jason's command, Germa 66 would no longer be a mere mercenary army—it would be the cutting edge of his new world order.
Jason smiled, a storm brewing within him as he saw his plans falling perfectly into place.
