WORSE (for Genma), no matter what he did, he could not dissuade them from joining his party. And there was nothing he could do to get rid of them. Ranma's wish had been "I wish I had friends like Ucchan but I wouldn't have to leave 'em behind"
"WOULDN'T HAVE TO LEAVE THEM BEHIND" Magic wish. Work it out...
Genma had tried to just leave the Ukyo behind again when she found them. But she had found them instantly without trouble. Apparantly all the girls now were magically drawn to wherever Ranma was, it was actually really difficult even to just get them away from him for privacy during bathing and such... the only way Genma had gotten them to stop offering to wash Ranma's back was by informing them that Ranma and him had all their baths together, as he did Martial Arts Hot Springs Training and such... the thought of a nude Genma was enough to make them wait their turns for bathing.
When he got more desperate as the numbers increased, Genma tried using force on some of the weaker girls, and was promptly struck by lightning. Thinking it coincidence, once he recovered, he tried again, and was trampled by a herd of cows, which mysteriously left everyone else untouched. His next attempt was answered by a swarm of bees... and so forth. Worse than the pain, the attacks had not only foiled his attempts completely, but MORE girls usually joined up while he was recovering from his injuries.
How was Genma supposed to go on this training trip if he had to contend with, not just Ranma, but several little girls, a few teenagers, 2 androids girls, a young but powerful sorceress named Lina Inverse, an amazon child, a SUCCUBUS named... err... Mary Iceland? Or something... and their numbers were growing day by day! In fact, recently, their combined power levels had reached such that whenever he made an escape attempt, the group of girls pounded him into the dust in a coordinated effort. After a little redhead named Washuu had appeared and started talking about scientific experiments, Genma had decided that he "might as well have them along". (yeah right)
Which wasn't to say they were useless to him. Some of the group were quite powerful even by themselves. Enough that all those people chasing after Genma for running away without paying started to consider just swallowing their losses. And they had skills which supplemented the income Genma brought in (ie zero...). And, patting his tummy contentedly, Genma did have to admit that there were some very fine cooks in the mix.
A more controversial benefeit was from Merry Xylophone, that Green haired woman. Genma suspected she might be a pedophile, but she DID seem to keep strictly to the theoratical side when "educating" Ranma. Though if age was the only thing keeping her back, kami help the lad when he turned sixteen... or however old it would be that she decided he was old enough to put theory into practice...
As against that, Genma was pretty sure that Nodoka would be more than satisfied with his manliness...
