Chapter 209: Human-Human Fruit · Model: Gladiator

As Buckingham’s words fell.

“ROAR!” (x3)

The behemoth named ’Vinsmoke Weevil’ opened his mouths, letting out three huge roars.

At this moment, Judge widened his eyes too.

He naturally recognized the origin of this three-headed monster.

That was exactly the ’New Work’ he and Buckingham created together.

“Buckingham, you lied to me!?”

Judge understood the situation instantly.

Buckingham kept telling him this ’Life Stitching’ creation needed some time to be completed thoroughly.

But now, she clearly deceived him.

This monster was completed long ago.

“But even so, only Vinsmoke modified humans should be able to control it…”

Judge murmured internally, then suddenly thought of an incredible possibility.

So he lowered his head hurriedly, looking at the gauge on his wrist.

Then, his expression showed shock and anger even more.

But clearly—Weevil had no interest in chatting with him.

“Obey… order… kill everyone.”

He muttered, holding the huge long blade horizontally, assuming a distinct attack stance.

And that stance was exactly…

“Elbaf Spear · Hakoku (Sovereignty)!”

Accompanying the shout from the pink-haired head, the legendary martial art of the Giant race erupted from the tip of his long blade.

Visible shockwave carrying power to crush everything blasted a bottomless gully on the ground where it passed again.

For the Vinsmoke father and four sons who almost lost resistance, this strike was unstoppable.

But…

“Attraction-Repulsion Domain · Vector Reflection · Gravity Wall!”

Accompanying the calm voice.

Next moment, Judge saw the incoming ’Elbaf Spear’ seemingly blocked by something invisible in the air.

It began to deflect, then…

Flew back.

“Oh?”

Confused expressions appeared on Weevil’s three faces simultaneously; his body was blasted away abruptly by the reflected attack.

BOOM!

His massive figure flew far away, crashing heavily on the ground.

Only now did Judge see—from the huge ’Rift Valley’ behind him.

Dust was blown away by invisible force; shattered boulders flew up silently.

Toratora’s figure floated out from the dust.

“So… what is this thing?”

His gaze looked at the monster struggling to stand up in the distance with some surprise.

Although taking a reflected and vector-enhanced ’Elbaf Spear’ head-on, that monster’s body surprisingly didn’t suffer much damage, just skin broken.

This physique strength, even for Toratora, was rarely seen in life.

And…

“Not just physique, this guy is actually an ability user…”

Toratora thought internally, then raised his hand casually.

Next moment, Judge was dragged by invisible force, floating in front of him.

“Hey, since you’re dying anyway… explain before dying, what’s with this guy?”

He sat cross-legged in the air again, asking casually.

“His faces and that power… are Kaido, Whitebeard, and Big Mom?”

Yes.

Whether ’Thunder Bagua’, ’Elbaf Spear’, or the appearances of those three heads and weapon characteristics, were enough for him to guess something.

Now, Judge barely swallowed the blood in his mouth, then actually explained very cooperatively, “It’s… them.”

“Buckingham’s Life Stitching is an incredible technology, capable of stitching strong men’s corpses and preserving their vitality not completely dissipated before death.”

“Combined with others’ lineage factors, it can… make revived corpses possess physique, martial arts, and combat instincts of ’Lineage Factor’ owners.”

“Moreover, she used to be… a member of Rocks Pirates…”

Speaking here, he panted heavily.

Toratora understood naturally.

As a member of the same pirate crew, intentionally collecting, it wasn’t strange for Buckingham to possess lineage factors of Kaido, Big Mom, and Whitebeard.

Now, Judge continued.

“Her technology needs enough strong corpses… Germa’s genetic modification and cloning technology can provide such corpses.”

“This monster is an ’Experiment’ made from 108 genetically modified strong corpses plus those three’s lineage factors.”

“Its physique is almost indestructible, vitality almost unkillable… I planned to use it… cough cough…”

As his words reached here.

Whoosh!

The three-headed six-armed behemoth leaped abruptly.

Instantly, he appeared above Toratora and others—that massive size possessed terrifying speed completely mismatched with the size.

“Hey hey, Toratora—you want to kill Judge too, right? Let’s cooperate, why stop me!?”

Buckingham’s voice still came from Vinsmoke Weevil’s mouth.

“You saw it too, right? Although my ’Life Stitching’ hasn’t reached true perfect stitching, it can already create ’Strong Men’ of this level.”

“If I cooperate with you Zodiac, plus Germa technology obtained from this guy Judge… we can definitely dominate the sea!”

She said.

But Toratora didn’t turn his head.

“Cooperate?”

He just raised his hand casually, pressing a finger lightly.

As words fell, Weevil felt an incredibly strong force coming from all directions abruptly.

The entire space seemed to become a huge mountain at this moment, pressing down on his body abruptly.

BOOM!

Next moment, he fell downward abruptly.

“Don’t disgust me.”

Now, Toratora pressed his finger casually and continuously.

Intense gravity pressed down constantly, pushing Weevil’s figure deeper underground.

“Your technology is indeed interesting; I’ll take it personally to offer to the Leader later.”

“But you better be killed.”

He said calmly.

Next moment…

“Haa…”

Deep underground where Weevil was pressed down.

Buckingham’s sigh came again. “Then no choice.”

Speaking.

Weevil’s body, under intense gravity and vector oppression, actually began to move slowly.

Arm stitches tightened; his body actually stood up bit by bit gradually.

“Careful…”

Just then, Judge’s voice followed.

“He is my… Modified Human… like my sons, has special ’Abilities’.”

His words seemed more difficult.

As mentioned before.

Germa’s lineage factor modification wasn’t Devil Fruit, but could give people special energy similar to Devil Fruits. Combined with Raid Suits, they had ability performance not inferior to real Devil Fruits.

Ichiji’s ’Sparking’, Niji’s ’Henry’, Yonji’s ’Winch’, Reiju’s ’Poison’ were all such ability manifestations.

And the strongest weapon ’Vinsmoke Weevil’ created by Judge and Buckingham cooperation, naturally so too.

“His lineage factor ability… is ’Adaptability’.”

“And since his body is alive, Buckingham gave him a Devil Fruit to eat.”

Judge said, “That fruit is very special, it is…”

He didn’t finish, nor needed to.

Because now, Toratora heard the roar from deep underground.

“Toratora…”

“Come and—Duel with me!”

VMMM!

Toratora felt abruptly.

He and Weevil below seemed to have some invisible connection.

That was what Judge wanted to tell him, and also the fact Toratora realized since seeing Vinsmoke Weevil.
