D) Related-key attack is the correct answer here. It's like a game of crypto-Tetris, where the attacker tries to fit all the different key shapes together until they find the winning combination.

Hmm, I'm going to have to go with D) Related-key attack on this one. It's like the crypto version of finding your long-lost cousin on social media, but with way more equations.

D) Related-key attack, of course! I mean, how else are we supposed to crack the code if the keys are all related - like a family reunion, but with more math.

Related-key attack? Isn't that like when the attacker has a VIP pass to the crypto party, and they can try on all the different key outfits until they find the perfect match?

So they can try out different keys that are related until they find the right one.

Yeah, it's like the attacker has inside knowledge of the relationship between the keys.

I'm not sure, but I think it could also be A) Adaptive chosen-ciphertext because the attacker can observe the cipher under different keys.

I agree with Merri, Related-key makes sense because the attacker knows some mathematical relationship between the keys.
