Kengan Ashura - 1 : I become a Monkey King ?
I see nothing, I feel nothing, I hear nothing, everything is dark. How long since I've been here ? Hours ? days ? Months ? Years ? I don't fucking know... Will I be dead and some guy will come and ask me to choose wishes ? This is the real world, no way. I really itch that I don't have a body.
"Anyway, it's not like this place is bad... Better than spending time stealing or looking for food in the streets." He doesn't know why his pitiful childhood came back to him, probably because he has nothing to do ?
"Tch... I'm too old for these things. Speaking of my age, I should have at least had a child but no woman really interested me. Fucking and working was enough for me." To die at 29 without accomplishing anything is rather pathetic despite how good he looked, society doesn't give a fuck about trash who has no knowledge.
"Spending my time doing internal monologue is starting to get irritating, when is a guy coming to see me ? I need fresh air."
"Hello~!" I suddenly heard a female voice ringing in my ears. Finally a presence other than this darkness, my sanity was taking quite a hit.
"I won't cut corners, the waiting line was long and the time to take care of all these souls is quite boring knowing that we have to find random power combinations." At least she's honest, but anger has crept into my heart. Letting me wait here like a fool because of a stupid waiting line ? Might as well send me straight to hell.
"I wouldn't take much time, just take 2 random powers from your memory and then send you to a random world. So... Hmm..."
This voice dares enter my private life ? Then what, what do I have to do. Send me to another world ? Why not, as long as it's not boring. Enough that it's not a dangerous anime.
"Oh, I found something interesting~! For powers, let's go with The Monkey King from GoH and a dimensional travel system with some additions... That'll be what you take with you~! Then for the main world, Kengan Ashura. Have a good trip~ ! See you soon if we meet again~!"
Wait, did she say that Kengan Ashura ? Where guys clash to death on a set ? You don't mess with me... A anime of battle maniacs, more than that was missing. Damn woman... At least I was blessed with a very interesting power, the system is pretty much secondary.
Guys seems to not choose with what and where to reincarnate, we can say that he has a monstrous chance of falling on the abilities of a very powerful god.
My consciousness was disappearing, so it's time to go, huh... Interesting, with the abilities of a monster it's not that bad to reincarnate me in a fighting anime, my martial art will be better than all of them !
XxX
"Hmm... Why was there something I couldn't decipher in that soul ? Like there was a shard hidden in it... Never mind." Said the female voice curiously before looking deep into her soul as she saw a small rainbow orb chained by black chains in this all white background.
As she tried to touch the chains, pain hit her delicate fingers as a grimace of pain formed on her face.
"Arghh... What could it be ? These chains directly affected my soul, as if giving me a warning... This mortal is interesting. A soul that possesses anti-divine characteristics to protect an orb, very curious~!" She declared, snapping her fingers to resume her work.
"Fufufufu, maybe we'll meet again in the Original realm, who knows ? I'll watch you from time to time, this thing makes me curious."
----------------
"Then shit... She didn't tell me about my landing. Those trees are a pain in the ass." The man got up looking at his plant environment, he didn't think he would remain an adult but rather return to 0. Well, not like that was a problem.
{System integration...50%...75%...99%...100%.}
{Ding ! I am your system which will accompany you until your death. The system does not have any special functionality, just looking at its stats and abilities along with a mastery level indication up to 50. Can also provide random missions with rewards. The host has an insufficient current level to travel to other worlds.}
"That's more than enough for me, having a boring system like those other guys will just make my head hurt. Where should I start... Stats ?" did he say with uncertainty while his breathing became regular. His body already felt a bit more powerful than before he died but that's nothing compared to what the Monkey King should be like.
He wasn't particularly an anime consumer, but he still watched to pass the time, an interesting culture in his opinion. Especially the works of actions, mainly the Senins. Harem, Slice of Life, all that awkward bullshit where the protagonist does nothing should be banned.

"Well, I was expecting something like that. Why did I get younger by the way ? Never mind… I guess I'll have to practice to get to Mori's level huh… Interesting." He had an excited smile on his face that quickly disappeared ; doing something new is certainly exciting for him.
"As long as I don't face monsters like Raian early on, I'll be fine. I just need time to learn this martial art." Renewal Taekwondo is certainly one of the most powerful arts that exists, see the best.
Kengan Ashura is essentially a world where the strong crush the weak, although there's probably no supernatural a human's physique can go way beyond what was in their previous world. Not at Baki's level, heck they can survive missiles and bombs...
The Kure clan will give me trouble sooner or later, being a group of assassins similar to the Zoldyck family in Hunter x Hunter, it wouldn't be surprising if a group hired them to come after me. Although by then I'd probably be strong enough to defend myself, but still, these guys shouldn't be underestimated. His martial art will most certainly be sought after, but no one will be able to practice it effectively like him.
Legs are the most effective limbs in a fight, better than fists. RE Taekwondo is an art based on leg movements as well as explosiveness based on great power that requires incredible dexterity to be able to chain combos.
The big advantage of this technique is the fact of being able to pass through any guard of the adversary as long as the movements are mastered and to be able to use the shock waves, which necessarily affects the adversary. As soon as you started, it never ends until the opponent is K.O.
"Well, that's if I'm already physically strong... For that, I have to master the movements before I can do anything. With the memory of the Monkey King's skills, I should master it pretty quickly."
Staying in the city will be useless, his body can survive simply thanks to the energy which is also in nature, enough to absorb it to refuel his body even if it is an autonomous process. The only information he lacks is the chronology of which he is, this woman gave no indications.
{5 months before the start of the story.}
Well, that makes things easier for me... After a few months, I'll just have to go to underground fighting places to get some money. Combat experience is equally important.
He finally decided to start training with the "basics" of RE Taekwondo before moving on to advanced movements, his body also needs to be put to the test. His constitution as a Monkey King grants him a perfect physique without having bulky but powerful and explosive muscles, even he would not have thought to have such a body worthy of Baki's characters without it being unpleasant.
"Before even starting the basics, working on flexibility is even more important..." He feels that this training story will be more complicated than he thinks.
He placed his body vertically, legs spread apart with his arms outstretched at the sides with a light posture, it's all about skill and mastery of force.
He suddenly launched an upward spinning right kick with a bit of difficulty, but he managed to keep his leg straight before returning to his stance. He must first accustom his body to making these kinds of movements before he can do anything.
He repeated the process alternately with the left leg fifteen times each before starting to feel tired, his breathing was slightly labored.
He then moved on to quick knee kicks in the void, a tingling sensation hit his thighs, his flexibility still needed to be improved.
Hours passed as a sweaty Senshin leaned against a tree holding his legs with loud gasps. Although he was naked to avoid staining his clothes, he could feel the heat in his muscles from the repeated movements. His non-human constitution allowed him to train for several hours, but a "normal" human would already be exhausted after 40 minutes.
{Renewal Taekwondo changed from Level 1 to Level 2.}
He had a very long way before he could reach level 50, just by passing level 2 he gained a little better understanding than when he started. Like the placement of his legs as well as the degrees to take.
The anime is not reality, it seems simple at first to kick, but what a hassle to reproduce these movements without it being a circus.
In 5 months, he will go to the protagonist's company to be able to ask for a loan of money so that he can form his own company and then register for the tournament. One of the conditions to be able to participate is to have a company as well as a single fighter, but being both an employer and a fighter is possible.
"Again, he'd have to agree to lend me billions of Yen. Underground fighting won't be enough..." He shook his head as he stopped thinking about the future, focusing on the present would be better for him.
"After about ten rests, until my body can restore energy, I will continue to train my legs. The arms will come later."
"I have to become the strongest in this world by proving my worth at the tournament. I will be the one who stands above the others while they look down on me." His gaze was fierce and determined, with this power he will not be the same of the past being a scum of society. He will even surpass the original Jin-Mori and become a being that transcends all entities.
{Ding! The host received a primary quest.
-Win the Kengan Annihilation Tournament by finishing first.
-Rewards: Unlock Yongpo & +5 in mastery levels of each martial art.
-Time: Until the end of the tournament.}
"Winning the tournament ? How do you expect me to become strong enough in just 5 months to face a monster like Kuroki Gensai? Besides, I felt like he wasn't serious at all in the tournament so the power he has displayed is probably not his maximum."
Although he is confident in his strength and build, getting this strong in 5 months will be next to impossible unless he redoubles his training. Rewards are very important too, unlocked Youei is also a necessity for him. A Monkey King without his objects? Don't make me laugh.
"I accept your challenge with great pleasure, system." His dull eyes had a green glow in them as he settled back into practice.
*His ! His ! His !...* He decided to train by hitting against a tree, exercising on a physical material will strengthen his legs as well. Beads of sweat splashed from his body as he concentrated on his movements.
"Just wait for me, Kengan Association, you're going to see a monster come out of the shadows. Don't even try to do anything harmful to me or you'll feel the wrath of a king. Especially you, President." His new identity gave him pride for his title, he will be a new person in this life.
(A/N: A Fanfic on Kengan ? I don't know why there isn't one on this work when there is potential especially on the fights. Renewal Taekwondo will be a lethal weapon in this world, I warn in advance that he will use his supernatural powers only as a last resort like Youei who is totally broken in a world like this. I advise you to watch the anime and read the manga for more understanding even if I will explain some points in the future. Also, the story will only begin later and not immediately. I will add original elements that are not in the work.)
