Chapter 299: Germa Kingdom: An Unexpected Turn

The news of Ichiji's defeat soon reached Judge.

"What's going on?" Yonji slapped the table and stood up, "Ichiji was defeated just minutes after heading out?"

Judge's face turned solemn as he immediately questioned the messenger, "How is Ichiji's condition now?"

"Report, Ichiji's condition is dire. He is still unconscious, and the doctors are performing emergency treatment," the messenger said nervously.

Judge paused for a moment, then turned to his other three children, giving an order, "Niji, Yonji, Reiju, all three of you go and wipe out Takumi's crew!"

"Understood," Niji sneered, activating his combat gear as he dashed off at high speed.

Yonji and Reiju quickly followed suit.

Soon, the three of them reached the ship, where only Enel was present.

In truth, Enel had already sensed their approach as soon as they left Germa's main battleship.

"A bunch of ignorant fools," Enel leaned against the front of the cabin, looking at Niji and the others dismissively. He frowned as he noticed their curled eyebrows, "Is that a family trait of yours, the curly eyebrows?"

"Seems like there is only one person here," Niji smirked, "In that case, leave him to me."

"But he's the one who defeated Ichiji," Yonji remarked with a faint smile, "Are you sure you can handle him alone?"

"Ichiji was defeated because he let his guard down. Hmph, an eighty-million bounty? What kind of threat could he be?" Niji said as he took out a blue canister. A flash of blue light appeared, and just like Ichiji earlier, Niji transformed...

His outfit changed into a blue battle suit, with a black cape bearing the number "2," yellow metallic gloves, and a belt with a lightning emblem.

"Another one?" Enel's lips twitched, "Are you some sort of magician family?"

"Hmph, mark my words, today will be the day you die," Niji grinned as he disappeared in an instant.

In the blink of an eye, Niji appeared three meters above Enel, launching an Electric Needle attack, rapidly striking Enel with his knee while releasing a massive electric current upon impact.

However, just like with Ichiji earlier, Niji's attack passed through Enel's elementalized body, and even Enel absorbed the electricity released from his legs.

"This is hilarious," Enel laughed, "I am a god of lightning, and you think this pathetic electricity could hurt me? Who do you think you're mocking!"

With those words, Enel spun his staff and struck one of the thunder drums on his back. A lightning bird, faintly glowing with golden light, emerged from the drum with a shrill cry, instantly hitting Niji.

A scream echoed.

Niji's entire body turned charred as he fell to the ground.

Enel looked at him with disdain, "This is all you've got? What trash."

Seeing Niji's defeat, both Yonji and Reiju grew more serious.

"It seems this guy really has some skills," Yonji glanced at Niji, who was still breathing but in terrible condition. He then looked at Reiju, "Let's take him on together."

Reiju nodded slightly, and both of them pulled out canisters matching their hair colors. As they activated them, two beams of light—one pink and one green—flashed, and they transformed as well.

Enel watched them transform with an expression of complete disbelief.

Once Yonji was clad in his green battle suit and Reiju in her pink battle suit, complete with earmuffs, a blue scarf, a butterfly-wing-shaped cape, and white and pink boots, Enel finally spoke.

"I get it now. You guys are a family of entertainers. Should I be throwing money to reward your performance?"

"He's just an eighty-million bounty criminal. What are you so proud of?" Yonji snorted, exchanging a glance with Reiju.

The two of them moved simultaneously, attacking Enel from the left and right.

Yonji unleashed his Winch Guillotine, charging all his strength into his right arm and striking Enel.

Reiju, meanwhile, fired a barrage of arrow-shaped poison projectiles from her mouth.

Enel yawned in place. The poison arrows passed through his elementalized body without causing any harm, but the door behind him was heavily corroded by the venom.

"Damn it! Long Nose is going to nag me again..." Enel glared at Reiju angrily, "You dare damage the ship? You're dead meat!"

At that moment, Yonji's punch landed, also passing through Enel's body and instead smashing the already-corroded door and the adjacent wall.

As Yonji withdrew his fist, Enel grabbed his arm with a malicious grin. Lightning began to course through Enel's entire body.

"Agh!" Yonji screamed as he was electrocuted.

Releasing Yonji, Enel let him collapse limply to the ground.

Reiju, seeing both Yonji and Niji defeated, became even more tense. She flapped the butterfly-like cape on her back, taking to the sky.

She knew she was no match for Enel, and with Niji and Yonji lying at his feet, there was no way for her to take them away.

All she could do now was buy time and return to report to Judge.

"Pink Poison Arrows!" Reiju fired another barrage of arrow-shaped venom from her mouth.

After launching her attack, she immediately sped towards the main warship.

However, Enel dodged the poison with a flash step, appearing next to Reiju within seconds. He smirked coldly, raising his hand and touching her head with a lightning-charged finger.

Reiju screamed and went limp, falling towards the sea.

Initially, Enel wasn't planning to intervene, but just letting someone who damaged his ship drown felt like too lenient a punishment. With that thought, he swung his staff, batting Reiju away just before she hit the water.

He then returned to the ship, casually tossing Yonji and Niji into the air. With both hands gripping his staff like a baseball bat, he waited until they fell, then struck them away with a loud crack, sending them flying.

Meanwhile...

Judge had just left the dining room when he saw Takumi strolling in the distance, making him pause.

"You... You're Takumi?" Judge asked, his expression serious.

Takumi glanced at him, but before he could respond, the system's sudden notification echoed in his mind.

[Ding! Defeated the Vinsmoke siblings. Progress +30%. Current total progress: 40%. Reward: Bottle of Anti-Venom Pills. Note: Each pill lasts for one hour. The bottle contains 99 pills.]
