The Jazz Fusion

Chapter XXIV: Ultra Judgment~No Man's Land Part VIII~

"Hey..." said Gumball, approaching Josuke.

Josuke doesn't respond.

"Is loving your Dad an Oedipus Complex? Y'know? If you're a guy?" asked Gumball.

"What!?" asked Josuke. "Of course, not! That's a stupid question! It's an Electra Complex! I... think... Holy shit..."

"Yep..." said Gumball. "What a mind fuck..."

Josuke sighs. "I'm sorry... that I was making you feel guilty..."

"What!? No, no! You weren't-!"

"I was... I... was..."

"Wait... really?"

Josuke nods. "I wanted you to pay attention to me... Because you people are the only ones who gave me attention... And I can see now that I may have taken advantage of you... because I was the only one is served in this relationship..."

Well... Yeah... I mean... Every time bad things happen, Josuke is the only one that is shown to be affected and the Jazz Fusion ends up comforting him, ending with Gumball usually bullying Josuke out of annoyance. I feel like it's my fault, too... Because I didn't give space for these other characters to be, well, treated just like people... These "characters" with Josuke never became actual characters until this Part... They were always just... kinda there to serve Josuke. I'm glad I made this part.

"I'm glad, too," thought Miguel, as he sips some coffee.

"Thanks, Gumball," smiled Josuke. "And... y'know what? Guys?"

The others turn to Josuke.

"I... want us to be an actual team... with balance..."

"You know... there was a saying..." said Miguel. "That instinct... and ego... can be balanced. What is it? It's called 'judgment.' They say that balancing all the chaos in you... and the order... is called judgment. Because judgment is what brings us together...
I know an ability that I mastered, allowing me to become the most powerful being in the universe that breaks and randomizes my stats."

"What is it called?" smiled Josuke.

"Ultra Judgment. It's kind of the power move I used to fight Cheapshot. He could also use it."

"Isn't that pretty iffy if it randomizes stats?" asked Gumball.

"Yeah... But you'll know when to strike," said Miguel.

"Can... you teach me...?" asked Josuke. 

"Right now!? Dude... I can't open a portal... But... Ooh! I can open a portal into the Hyperbolic Time Room, though! That's a loophole! Yes! There's a loophole!"

"What's that?"

"It's my room of many rooms. One day out here, a year in there."

"We've been here for six hours... How long does it take to master?"

"It took me 100 years..."

"WHAT!?"

"He'll do it in 1!" yelled Patrick.

"Try 6 months!" laughed Miguel.

"3 months!" yelled Patrick.

"Whoa, whoa, WHAT!?" asked Josuke.

"Alright! 1 month it is!" smiled Miguel. "That'd be... two hours! Let's go!"

Miguel grabs Josuke's head and walks out of the portal.

"WAIT!!!" yelled Darwin. "TAKE US WITH YOU!!!"

The portal closes.

"Oh, sweet Miguel..." Darwin facepalms.
