Chapter 15: Hypnosis (Edited)

"Indeed, although the energy is not strong enough, at least my martial arts will is still present, and my spirit is strong enough. The hypnosis technique learned from Master Roshi has no effect on the strong, but it is very useful against ordinary people, especially for simple hypnotic suggestions..." All of this was naturally done by Robert, and it wasn't any formidable method, just a bit of hypnotic suggestion.

When Robert first learned that Master Roshi could use hypnosis, he had to trade dozens of collector's edition books of Playboy De to learn this secret technique from him.

Although Master Roshi had a sleazy smile on his face while teaching, Robert never used hypnosis for anything bad! At this moment, Robert demonstrated the most basic ability of hypnosis, using mental power for subtle suggestions, guiding their current emotions, and shifting their focus. And this shift was only temporary.

But these teenagers' points of interest are numerous, as long as they are focused on something else, even if they wake up later, they won't dwell on the things they overlooked before, at most they'll just be a bit puzzled.

As for the strongest power of hypnosis, it can temporarily change the target's perception of certain things, even fabricating a set of short memories that fits the target's behavioral logic! Yes, hypnosis can't directly control everything about the target through hypnosis, after all, the mainstream power in the Dragon Ball world is still Ki, and the development of such willpower and mental power isn't that advanced.

But, even so, using hypnosis on ordinary people is still no problem, and expecting to use hypnosis against real strong opponents is clearly unrealistic, because the martial will of real strong opponents is too firm and hard to be affected.

Like Vegeta, who was controlled by Babidi, was able to resist the magic's control effects with his pride and strong will alone!

After Robert hypnotically suggested to his classmates, he also solved part of the trouble, and the other part of the trouble, Okinaga and others, didn't come to school in the morning, not knowing what they were doing, until lunchtime when Okinaga and his trio arrived at the school menacingly.

And at this moment, Robert was pondering how to solve this meal at noon...

"Robert!" When Okinaga and his trio found Robert, their eyes lit up, and they immediately surrounded Robert, blocking his way.

There were classmates around who noticed this, but no one stood up, because Okinaga's trio were notoriously infamous bullies, not just Robert, many classmates had been bullied by them.

Towards the bully trio, the classmates only felt fear, dread, and resentment, but their feelings towards the bullied Robert were complicated, including helplessness, powerlessness, sympathy, mockery, disdain, and more...

"Hehe, Robert, come with me, I have something to say to you..." Seeing that Robert did not attempt to flee, Okinaga chuckled, wrapped his arm around Robert's neck, and dragged him to the side without explanation, and Robert did not resist, wanting to see just how bad the bully trio could be.

Soon, the four arrived at a corner of the school, a place where people usually don't come, and many had been brought here by the bully trio for a lesson. Upon arriving, the bully trio became even more arrogant, as if they had come to their own territory.

"Robert, you were pretending all along, weren't you?" Okinaga pushed Robert towards a wall, surrounded him with three people, and looked at Robert with a cold smile and asked.

"Hmm, maybe." Robert shrugged, his eyes flickering slightly, and after a surge of mental power, he said with a smile. "Still pretending to be dumb! Beat him up!" Angered by his words, Okinaga yelled at his two lackeys, then kicked the wall beside him. When they felt the pain, the expressions of Okinaga and his men became somewhat puzzled, their bodies trembled slightly, and the angry look in their eyes gradually turned clear.

"Still a bit troublesome..." Robert sighed helplessly, increased the output of his mental power, and Okinaga and his two lackeys fell into a hypnotic state once again, their eyes gradually filled with anger.

"Hmph! Now you know how tough we are?" Okinaga glared at the corner, in their perspective, Robert had been beaten to the ground, twitching in pain. They felt immensely satisfied and taunted Robert.

"Yesterday we saw you participating in the big eater contest and winning ten thousand dollars. I'm telling you, hand over that money to us as protection money, or you'll get a beating like this every day!"

"What if I'm very good at fighting, and you're no match for me?" Robert raised an eyebrow and suddenly asked.

"Good at fighting?" Okinaga and his men trembled again, clearly, Robert's claim of being good at fighting conflicted with their perception of having beaten Robert to the ground, which once again shook the effect of the hypnosis.

"Good at fighting? Little runt, I'd like to see how good you are!" However, before the hypnosis completely wore off, Okinaga suddenly shouted, pulling out a handgun from his waist and coldly laughing at the wall.

"Originally, this gun was prepared for your brother Clark, he resisted our punches without a scratch last time, I don't believe he can remain unscathed against bullets!"

As Okinaga's words fell, Ander and Alek also pulled out a handgun each, the three handguns of different models were all not very new, seemingly stolen from their homes, which was the reason they didn't come in the morning.

"Then you're really mistaken, bullets indeed can't hurt him, even cannonballs wouldn't do much..." Robert scoffed at the three handguns, disdainfully saying.

Just handgun bullets couldn't hurt him, let alone Clark.

However, the fact that Okinaga and his men could pull out handguns against him and Clark was unexpected for Robert, because if Robert and Clark were just ordinary people, then the three handguns would be a deadly threat to them! This also means that Okinaga and his men not only thought of robbing but also had intentions of harming. Even if they hadn't really taken that step, and the guns might only be meant as a threat, who could guarantee that such impulsive people as Okinaga and his men wouldn't really shoot when it came down to it?

"Hmm, you brought me here, wanting to extort money from me, I didn't agree, so you pulled out guns to threaten me, I had no choice but to agree to give you the prize money..." Thinking this, Robert began to weave a hypnotic story.

"But the three of you started to conflict over the division of the loot, as the boss, Okinaga thought he should take the biggest share, Ander and Alek thought they also had guns, why should they take so much less money, so you started to pull guns on each other!"
