Dawn Over the North Blue
The Heaven's Embrace glided silently above the restless waves of the North Blue. The atmosphere was tense; a storm of fate was brewing.
Vegito stood at the helm, eyes narrowed as the shoreline of the Germa Kingdom loomed ahead — a fortress of advanced technology and ruthless power.
POV: Vegito
"Germa 66, the infamous royal family of genetically enhanced assassins, tyrants of the North Blue, and most importantly... Sanji's bloodline. Time to put an end to their cruelty and free Reiju from their grip."
A smirk curled on his lips. "Let's see how these so-called 'science soldiers' handle a real fight."
Arrival at the Germa Kingdom
The ship descended stealthily behind the fortified cliffs. Below, legions of Germa soldiers patrolled, their mechanized armor gleaming ominously.
Nami gripped the railing. "This place is scary. Their tech is unlike anything I've ever seen."
Reiju's name hung heavily in the air — the only daughter rumored to have compassion amidst cold ambition.
Infiltration Begins
Vegito leapt from the ship, tail flicking as he transformed into his base Saiyan form. His aura barely contained his immense power.
With Nami, Kuina, and Bell-mère at his side, they infiltrated the sprawling fortress.
Confrontation with Germa Soldiers
The first wave of soldiers appeared, weapons raised.
Vegito's voice rang out, calm but deadly. "You don't want to fight me."
Yet, their arrogance made them attack.
In a flash, Vegito moved — a slap, a punch, a slash — each enemy dissolving into crimson mist.
Kuina's blade sang as she cut through multiple foes with precise strikes infused with Haki.
Nami, surprisingly agile, wielded her Clima-Tact to create gusts that knocked enemies off balance.

Reiju's Captivity
Deep within the fortress, in a high-tech cell, Reiju sat silently, her pink hair a stark contrast to the cold metal bars.
Her eyes sparkled with defiance but hid the pain of captivity.
Rescue Operation
Vegito, leading the charge, blasted through the corridors.
He stopped before Reiju's cell, the locking mechanism a complex puzzle of technology and haki.
Using his system's knowledge and powers, Vegito dismantled the lock effortlessly.
Reiju stepped out, eyes wide in disbelief.
First Contact
Vegito bowed slightly. "You're free now, Reiju. Join us, and together we'll end Germa's tyranny."
Reiju smiled softly, her voice steady. "I've waited for someone like you."
Battle Against Germa 66 Commanders
Their escape was not simple.
Germa 66's elite commanders, clad in deadly armor, blocked their path.
A fierce battle erupted — Vegito showcased his mastery over various martial arts and Haki, cutting through the enemy lines.
Reiju unleashed powerful poison-based attacks, incapacitating foes with grace and lethality.
Kuina and Nami supported from flanks with precise strikes and weather manipulation.
Sanji's Vow
From a distance, Sanji watched the chaos unfold.
His fists clenched, heart pounding.
"They're freeing Reiju... maybe there is hope after all."
Victory and Liberation
After a decisive blow from Vegito's Saiyan Flash Slash, Germa 66's forces collapsed.
The fortress fell silent.
Celebration and Feast
Back on Heaven's Embrace, a grand feast erupted.
Reiju, relaxed for the first time in years, laughed with newfound freedom.
Nami clapped her hands happily. "This crew keeps getting better!"
Kuina, sitting beside Vegito, smiled shyly.
Vegito grinned, "The family grows stronger."
