Whatever suits you, Hermione!"
Gundam Renzo didn't really mind.
Lately, he had been relatively free. Thanks to his Dojutsu Omniscience ability, the research on Blood Orchids and the genetic technology of Coordinators had made significant progress. It wouldn't be long before they achieved real results.
"Should I make a move on that woman, Lacus?" Gundam pondered.
In his previous life, opinions about her were mixed.
But one thing was undeniable—she was a highly capable woman.
If he could subdue her, she wouldn't betray him. Instead, she would be an invaluable ally.
After all, his ultimate goal was to venture beyond the solar system and into the universe.
"It's worth a shot!"
Gundam Renzo finally decided—he would secure Lacus.
It would make taking control of PLANT in the future much easier, which would greatly benefit his long-term plans.
Tap, tap, tap!!
Just then, a series of hurried footsteps echoed from within a space portal.
The next moment, an Ice Eevee dashed out of the portal, leaped into the air, and landed right in the middle of the table.
Puffing out its chest proudly, the Ice Eevee smirked.
"Ta-da! Uchiha! Everyone! I did it!"
"Oh? Eevee, is this your Glaceon form?"
Uchiha Renzo and the others immediately gathered around.
Before Eevee could continue basking in its glory, multiple hands shot out and landed on its body. Before it even had a chance to dodge, a forced memory-sharing session was initiated.
"Oh-ho! So that's how it works! And it's not just Glaceon?"
"You've also awakened Leafeon, Sylveon, Jolteon, and Flareon?"
"You're only missing Umbreon now from the standard eight forms!"
"That's incredible!"
Everyone immediately started discussing excitedly.
Eevee: "...(⊙_⊙)"
"You damn bastards! Can't you at least let me finish speaking before stealing my moment? You just had to ruin my fun, didn't you? Unbelievable!"
Eevee was absolutely fuming!
What kind of people were these?!
"Ahem! Eevee, you're amazing!"
Uchiha Renzo flashed a thumbs-up at Eevee.
It had only been a few days, and it had already succeeded.
With this, Uchiha Renzo now had access to Ice, Grass, and Fairy innate attributes, while his Lightning and Fire attributes had also become even stronger.
And that wasn't even counting all the new abilities Eevee had gained.
Especially Leafeon's abilities.
"I wonder... can I awaken Wood Release through my new wood attribute?" Uchiha Renzo rubbed his chin thoughtfully.
"Just test it when you get back! Worst case scenario, if it doesn't work, we'll just speed up the research on Hashirama Cells and create a proper Wood Release Kekkei Genkai!" Gundam Renzo laughed.
It wasn't like before—now, with Dojutsu Omniscience, all their experiments and studies had become significantly easier.
"True!"
Uchiha Renzo nodded. "I'll try it out once I get back!"
Then, he turned to Eevee.
"Eevee, try to learn as many skills from your new forms as possible!"
"For example—Glaceon's Hail, Freeze-Dry, Blizzard, Ice Beam, and Rain Dance..."
"Leafeon's Magical Leaf, Sunny Day, Synthesis, and Grass Knot..."
"And of course, skills from Jolteon, Flareon, and Sylveon too—learn as many as you can!"
He had noticed that even the seemingly less important skills Eevee had could become incredibly powerful once modified.
Just like the Tackle move—at first glance, it was nothing special, but it eventually led to the development of his Impact Punch Combat System.
"Yeah, yeah!"
At that moment, Demon Slayer Renzo joined in excitedly.
"Also, don't forget Solar Beam, Solar Blade, and Morning Sun! I've been waiting too long for them!"
Finally!
He had been eagerly anticipating this moment!
"Kibutsuji Muzan! You're finished! Hahaha!" Demon Slayer Renzo grinned mischievously.
"Enough already!"
Eevee rolled its eyes dramatically.
"What do you guys think I am? A learning machine?! You're dumping all this on me at once—at least give me some time! I'll do my best, okay?!"
Eevee did want to master as many moves as possible.
But more than that, it needed to improve its control over these new elemental abilities.
Otherwise, in unfamiliar forms, it wouldn't be able to fight at full strength.
"Hehe! Then we'll be counting on you!"
Uchiha Renzo and the others chuckled.
After some more casual chatting, they all eventually went their separate ways.

Pokémon World
"Eevee, you're amazing! You managed to master five new evolution forms so quickly!"
"I never even knew Eevee had so many different forms! Maybe you'll really awaken all 18 evolutions someday?"
Cynthia hugged Eevee tightly, gently rubbing its cool, icy fur in its Glaceon form. It felt so refreshing!
"Of course!"
Eevee proudly lifted its head.
"Mastering all 18 evolutions has always been my goal! Now, I'm already halfway there! The rest won't be a problem either—I just know it!"
Even if this world couldn't help it achieve that goal, there were other worlds out there!
As long as Python Renzo successfully fused with Dragon Blood, or if a new recruit arrived with the Dragon Bloodline, Eevee was confident it could awaken its Dragon Evolution.
It had already compared the Dragon Genes from Hermione's world to the Dragon-type Pokémon in its own world.
They shared many similarities, and in some areas, they could complement and enhance each other.
That's why Eevee had asked Apocalypse Renzo, Gundam Renzo, and Hermione to help research a way to fuse the two Dragon-type genes—either through a scientific method or a special potion.
If successful, not only would Eevee awaken a powerful Dragon Evolution, but Garchomp and Dratini could also undergo further evolution and transformation!
"Should we tell Grandma? She'd be thrilled to hear about this!"
Cynthia looked at Eevee for confirmation.
"Go ahead!"
Eevee nodded.
"Besides, I need the Professor's help collecting some rare TM Discs so I can learn even more skills! Otherwise, I won't be able to unleash the full potential of my evolutions!"
"Got it! I'll call her right now!"
Cynthia quickly pulled out her phone—a special device produced by the Renzo Group—and dialed Professor Carolina.
The call connected almost instantly.
"Cynthia? Calling me at this hour—what's the occasion?"
On the screen, Professor Carolina appeared with a warm, grandmotherly smile.
"Hehe!"
Cynthia giggled mischievously.
"What, I can't call my lovely grandma just to chat?"
Professor Carolina chuckled.
"Oh please, I know you too well! You hardly ever call for no reason. Now, out with it—what's up?"
"It's actually Eevee who needs something!"
Eevee hopped into view and excitedly explained its five new evolutions to the professor.
Then it added,
"I'll have Red Queen send you all my research notes and data! You can use my findings as a reference for perfecting the evolution process for these five forms!"
"Also, I need TMs for my new evolution forms—stuff like Sunny Day, Blizzard, Grass Knot..."
"These moves are super rare in the market! I need your help to track them down!"
If Eevee searched for them itself, it would probably find them eventually, but that would take too much time.
And Eevee still wanted to travel with Cynthia, so it didn't have the luxury to waste time.
"Leave it to me!"
Professor Carolina nodded. "I'll gather them as quickly as possible and send them over! Now, if that's all, I need to get back to my experiments!"
Before Cynthia could even react, Professor Carolina hung up the call.
Cynthia: "..."
"Seriously?! Grandma, that was so rude! You didn't even say goodbye!"
She pouted, clearly upset.
"Haha!"
Eevee couldn't help but laugh and shake its head.
"Come on, you know how obsessed she is with research. Whenever something interesting comes up, she forgets about everything else.
And this time, she just got five new evolutions to study—of course she's excited!"
"I don't care!"
Cynthia hugged Eevee tightly, pouting even more. "You have to make it up to me! I want ice cream—seven flavors!"
"You're gonna give yourself a stomachache..." Eevee sighed in defeat.
Cynthia could be pretty stubborn when she wanted to be.
But that was also part of what made her adorable.
"I don't care!"
Cynthia suddenly lifted Eevee up.
Eevee got the message and quickly reverted to its normal Eevee form, letting her scoop it up into her arms.
Cynthia's eyes sparkled like crescent moons.
"Besides, I've gotten a lot stronger now! A little ice cream won't hurt! Let's go, let's go!"
Without waiting, she rushed off toward Vermilion City's Food Street, still clutching Eevee.
