"#17! What exactly is going on? Wasn't the remote control already destroyed by you?!"
Seeing the remote control being fiddled with in Jin's hand, #18 completely lost her composure.
#17, being questioned, wasn't much better off either.
He stared dumbfoundedly at Jin.
He was utterly bewildered.
Forget the fact that Dr. Gero, who should have been blasted to bits by his own Ki Blast, was still standing here.
The remote control that he had crushed was now intact in someone else's hand.
'Was, was I still in a dream state, asleep?'
"Dad, you really have more tricks up your sleeve."
The older Trunks scratched his head, filled with emotion.
Although he had grown up under Jin's various ingenious maneuvers, this time he still had to admit he was impressed.
Just an hour ago, Jin, through information provided by Bulma, learned that Dr. Gero's secret laboratory was located here.
After entering, they found Dr. Gero's remains, which had been blasted into mincemeat.
Jin only thought for a second before pulling Orochimaru over from the Gotham City.
One Impure World Reincarnation revived Dr. Gero and controlled his mind with a talisman.
The remote control crushed by #17 was repaired.
Feeling the bomb in their hearts reactivate, how could #17 and #18 not be scared into rolling back?
"Jin-kun, can I go back now? I'm still waiting for that Bruce guy to make a choice, to see if he chooses his friend or the woman~"
Orochimaru said.
This guy was having a blast in the Gotham City.
His greatest hobby was playing games with Batman and the others.
He also mentioned that Arkham Asylum was full of talented people who were great to talk to.
He really liked being inside~
Without another word, Jin opened the group teleport function again and sent Orochimaru back.
"Give that to me!"
#18 could no longer remain calm.
She abruptly rushed forward, reaching out to grab the remote control in Jin's hand.
Jin raised his hand, making it impossible for the barely 160cm tall #18 to reach the remote control.
In her frustration, #18 threw a punch at Jin's abdomen.
"Little wildcat, I don't dislike that."
Jin laughed upon seeing this, his other hand reaching out to catch #18's fist in his palm.
Then he lifted her small hand, turning around.
The two spun as if dancing a ballroom dance.
"If we're going on a date, change into prettier clothes."
Jin said with a weird laugh full of teasing.
#18 was both embarrassed and angry.
But more than that, she was shocked.
'According to the data provided by Dr. Gero, this Uchiha Jin shouldn't be this strong!'
'And the data indicated this guy used a sword.'
'But now, he was actually dealing with me with bare hands...'
"#18!"
#17 also realized something was wrong and quickly rushed forward.
However, before he could get close to the two, he vaguely saw only an afterimage.
Then a sharp pain came from his abdomen, and he was sent flying backwards.
Fortunately, the burly #16 behind him caught him in time.
#17, who had taken a kick to the stomach, endured the pain and looked forward. He saw Trunks in a flying kick stance right in front!
"You... you guy... How on earth..."
#17 said through gritted teeth.
#16's expression wasn't much better either.
'What exactly was going on?'
'How could they be this strong?'
Whoosh- Whoosh-
A few more figures flew from beyond the clouds using Flight Technique, landing in front of the cave.
"Phew~ Finally here. Are these three the Androids?"
Goku walked into the cave, his tone as relaxed as if he were on an outing.
The first thing Goku noticed upon entering the cave was #18, whose hand was being held by Jin. He asked curiously:
"You... are #18, right?"
"You know me? Did that guy Dr. Gero tell you?"
#18 frowned slightly.
'This guy... is Son Goku?'
'The difference from the data Dr. Gero input into my brain was way too far!'
"No~ I just thought Jin would probably only be interested in girls."
Goku rubbed the back of his head and laughed.
The older Trunks also couldn't help but chuckle wryly.
He felt Goku was understanding his dad more and more.
"So then? What should we do now?"
Goku spread his arms and asked everyone:
"According to Trunks, these two should be villains who want to destroy the world, right? Then the best method should be to eliminate them here, right?"
As soon as these words were spoken, #17 rushed forward again.
He launched a flying kick at Son Goku's temple.
However, in the final moment when his foot was less than five centimeters from the other's temple, #17 felt as if his foot was blocked by an invisible wall.
No matter how much force he used, he couldn't advance an inch.
Looking closely, he found Goku's body was emitting a layer of light golden aura, isolating his attack.
'Wh-what technique is this?'
'No, that's not right!'
'This isn't a technique… it's simply releasing Ki to form a repulsive force that prevents others from approaching.'
Goku turned his face sideways, meeting #17's eyes.
Even though there was no killing intent in that gaze, it still scared #17 into breaking out in a cold sweat.
Whoosh-
Goku abruptly increased his aura output, blowing #17 away for the second time.
"Yosh, let me end this."
Jin grinned weirdly and pressed his thumb towards the red button in the middle of the remote control.
#17 and #18 felt their heartbeats stop at that moment.
How could they not know?
That was the button to detonate the bombs in their hearts.
"Stop!"
#18, whose hands were both restrained by Jin's other hand, could only raise her not-very-long beautiful legs high.
She tried to kick Jin's throat with her toes.
However, Jin lifted his left hand slightly.
#18 lost her balance in mid-air like a rabbit held by a butcher.
Her attack naturally missed.
Seeing Jin's right thumb already pressed against the red button, #17 and #18 both thought their time had come.
However-
Crunch~
Jin clenched his five fingers.
As if reenacting #17's operation from hours ago, he once again crushed the remote control recreated by the resurrected Dr. Gero into fragments.
The continuous reversals made the Android trio's hearts feel like they were on a rollercoaster.
A full few minutes passed-
#18 was the first to regain her senses, staring blankly at Jin, in disbelief as she said:
"You... why..."
However, Jin didn't choose to answer #18's question.
He just turned to Goku and said:
"I'll handle this one. You handle those two. Separate these two Androids, and Cell can't become perfect."
"I understand."
Goku nodded, suddenly strengthening the released Ki by another magnitude.
The entire cave collapsed ferociously.
But before the falling rocks could land, the wind pressure had already blown away #16 and #17.
Goku flew out the next instant to chase after them.
#17, who possessed a twisted pride comparable to Vegeta's, unwillingly gritted his teeth.
After barely maintaining his balance in mid-air, he shouted, "Don't look down on me!" And charged towards Goku.
However, after just one clash, he was knocked to the ground by Goku, who had already reached the Full Power Super Saiyan 1.
Given Goku's no-killing nature, he probably wouldn't do much to these two.
At most, he'd let them go after they witnessed the absolute gap in strength.
And Jin prepared to take #18 back to Konoha Village.
After all, no matter how capable Cell was, he couldn't possibly go to another world to absorb #18 and become perfect.
'But I still kind of want to play with Perfect Cell... Ah, forget it. Why be an idiot and indulge the enemy in getting stronger?'
He almost accidentally fell into the Saiyan habit of being reckless.
"Yosh~ Let's go."
Jin turned his head and said to #18.
#18, who had been dumbly watching her brother get beaten up by Son Goku, upon hearing this, immediately frowned deeply, sternly shouting:
"What nonsense are you talking? What gives you the right to order me around?"
"With this."
Jin shook his fist the size of a sandbag.
Then, under #18's mortified and furious gaze, he spanked her perky buttocks.
...
Meanwhile, in another timeline, the Dragon Ball World.
In the animal reserve of the Royal Nature Protection Park located in the suburban area of North City, a little girl with light golden short hair similar to #18's, about 4 years old, tightly hugged the leg of a black-haired girl with a single ponytail, about a year younger than the older Trunks.
Tears welled in her eyes as she said:
"Sister, th-this monster absorbed Uncle #17..."
The black-haired girl looked indifferently at this freak that seemed like a mutated green fly with prominent thick lips.
"Cell, right? I've heard Dad mention you. I thought you were quite smart. Wouldn't it be better to just keep lurking in the sewers, barely surviving? You dare show your face seeking death?"
The monster before them was Cell in his Semi-Perfect Form, after absorbing #17.
"Hehehe~ Uchiha Ichika, Uchiha Jin's eldest daughter? I've heard of you too. I went through great trouble to finally avoid your dad's surveillance and successfully absorb #17. #18 being protected by your dad indeed makes her hard to absorb, but I already have another method."
Perfect Cell, with a smug look of a villain feeling triumphant, took out a Capsule Corp's capsule.
After throwing it, accompanied by a cloud of dust, it made Uchiha Ichika and Uchiha Maron opposite him change their expressions.
That was... the time machine invented by Bulma!
"Aunt Bulma told me the day before yesterday that the company lost a time machine. So it was stolen by you."
Ichika's face darkened as she placed her hand on the hilt of the sword at her waist.
"Break, Kyoka-"
"Solar Flare!"
But Cell was faster, placing his five fingers on the sides of his head and releasing a dazzling light.
Ichika instinctively protected her younger sister.
By the time she looked forward again, Cell and the time machine had long vanished without a trace.
"Bastard! I'll remember this!"
Ichika cursed furiously.
...
#18, who was forcibly abducted to Konoha Village by Jin, was naturally extremely resistant at first.
But Jin's statement, "Then do you want me to kill all three of you Androids?" immediately silenced her.
Ultimately, it was Jin who was greatly merciful by sparing the three of them.
Regardless of whether they truly intended to kill Goku or just treated it as a game, when they first awakened, they did want to kill Goku.
That alone was enough reason for Jin to kill them.
Letting them off now is already being very merciful, so they shouldn't push it.
Time passed day by day.
That kid Obito should have already started implementing the Eye of the Moon Plan according to Madara's dying orders, recruiting followers in secret.
However, after witnessing so many earth-shattering battles of Jin in the Dragon Ball World, the mastermind, old Madara, had basically lost his motivation.
Even if revived with Rinne Rebirth, so what?
After seeing the heaven-defying strength displayed by Jin, Son Goku, and the older Trunks, forget about reviving and returning to his peak during his lifetime…
Even if he became the Ten-Tails Jinchuriki as wished-
Even if Jin didn't take action personally-
By just calling over anyone from the Dragon Ball World-
Madara suspected he would be beaten to a pulp.
Jin was even a bit curious about how Obito would react when he saw Madara's disillusioned attitude after his resurrection.
"We, your subjects, are ready to fight to the death, Your Majesty, why surrender first?"
...
And time, unconsciously, reached Year 60 of Konoha Calendar.
Under Tsunade's governance, Konoha Village in peacetime no longer needed children on the battlefield.
Fewer and fewer students applied for early graduation.
However, this year's graduates still attracted the attention of countless villagers.
The son of Konoha's ANBU Commander Namikaze Minato, the second son of the Uchiha Clan's head, the children of the Hyuga, Aburame, Inuzuka, and Ino-Shika-Cho Clans' heads...
One Ninja second-generation after another.
And the most attention-grabbing were undoubtedly the three children of Konoha's, even the entire Ninja World's behind-the-scenes boss!
12-year-old Uchiha Trunks!
11-and-a-half-year-old Uchiha Ichika!
11-year-old Uchiha Kazui!
