(Brian's P.O.V)

Sometimes an idea hits you and you're left wondering how in the hell are you still not in a mental institution. An idea sooo crazy it has no chance of failing. 

Perhaps I should recap.

The next clone I created was a little… different. For starters, he wasn't that talkative. Secondly he stared at me in contempt every single time he thought I wasn't looking. I didn't like that look so I dispelled him. 

The third clone was normal. Except he was a prankster. He gave me a detailed plan on how we could prank Odin into thinking that Frigga was cheating on him with a black dude who was 'hung like a horse.' Like what the fuck!

After that I focused on creating a clone that would be more inclined to spar without any distractions. 

The wind screamed as a staff swept through the air close to my head. I leaned back and blocked the follow up strike on the handle of my own staff. The ground below broke and I used the momentum from our clash to jump back.

My clone snarled with a bloodthirsty smile on his face and advanced forward. He thrust and his Ki staff lengthened, the point shot towards me like a bullet. In retaliation my own staff lengthened too and both end met each other in the air. There was an explosion of ki as my weapon destroyed the Ki Staff on the clone's hands, sending flakes of golden yellow energy flying off.

The clone flew up to escape the attack. His hand pointed at me and he shouted,

"Eat this!"

Behind him, Ki manifested into thousands upon thousands replicas of the Long Pole from before, only this time the blunt ends, formed into sharp points. Lances.

"Oh come on, really? I tried to make this one normal but ended up creating a battle maniac."

I muttered to myself as the lances shot off towards me.

I swept my staff through the air blocking and diverting the lances. Some hit the ground and speared through while others exploded, sending pieces of rock flying everywhere. 

The attacks were relentless, shockwaves and dancing sparks of light flashed whenever my staff broke through the assault. It was like drops of rain were falling down at me and my staff was the Umbrella.

"Ok that's enough."

I slammed my staff on the ground, a wave of torrential energy exploded from my body, destroying the Ki spears and the ground underneath my feet. 

I mentally connected with the clone and dispelled him. The dust settled, revealing over 10 miles of blackened soil. I flew to a hill and sat down upon it. I was frustrated. I couldn't believe that a spar with only Staffs had escalated to that point.

I was sad to realize that the Multiform skill wasn't perfect yet. It would have made it much easier to perfect my martial arts and weapon skills by sparring against myself. Easier to spot mistakes at least. 

But I didn't have time to fix the issue of each of my clones having their own little quirks. I was behind the schedule I had put up for myself as it was. Which is why I broke my promise. The Wishing Bead appeared in my hands again.

"One last time then it's over."

I was just about to instruct the Interface to make the necessary changes before I stopped. My palm closed on the bead and a pensive look appeared on my face. Ok first of all, I'm under a lot of pressure. 

I got up and started pacing around as the beginnings of my next plan made itself known. Ok, this was even crazier than the Dormammu affair. I really think I'm crazy. Maybe it's an effect from all the dimensional hopping.

Bah! Who am I kidding, this is pretty much per the course when it comes to me so let me lay it down.

Power hadn't mattered that much before as it did now. Asuma was waiting for me to get stronger so that we could have a battle to ease his boredom. Someone like that didn't sound very patient. Especially when he was bored. That meant I could expect him to start shit by messing with me soon before I even get to his level. 

So the initial plan wouldn't do anymore. And to catch a guy like that off guard, thinking out of the box is the way to go. So what would he expect from me? He would expect me to go the tried and tested route of accumulating power quickly by using the Dragonballs to wish for things like emphatic mimicry, super serums like The Sentry formula, devil fruits, getting the Omnitrix, Kryptonian D.N.A, The boosted gear, Symbiotes, Naruto bloodline like the Eternal Mangekyo Sharingan, Rinnegan, etc.

I was a resourceful guy. I could get all that shit easily and quickly but the problem is…he's a reincarnator like me. He knows all those tricks and cheats. So he would be expecting it. I wouldn't be surprised if he actually had counters for a Celestialsapien from Ben 10. 

So how was I going to beat him? A good question. For now, I gave new directives to the Interface. 

20 minutes later, I jumped from the desolate planet, to an alternate timeline of the Dragonball world. I appeared on a small planet that only had a lone tree, a house and a car on it. King Kai jumped up in fright while his pet monkey and cricket hid behind him.

"Aaah you scared me young man."

I bowed at him, showing some respect for my future teacher, though he didn't know that yet.

"Hello King Kai, my name is Valiant and I have come to ask you to take me in as your student."

"What? My student? How did you get here?"

He asked full of distrust. 

"I'm sorry for intruding on your Planet. As for how I got here, I have an ability that allows me to teleport."

I told him.

"Oh that's fine I guess." He then cleared his throat." However, if you want me to be your teacher, you have to tell me a joke and make me laugh."

My hand unclenched as tension left my shoulders. I had a plethora of excuses and lies to tell him had he asked me more about my background. Luckily, King Kai was a simple guy.

I cleared my throat as the three of them listened closely.

"What did the janitor say when he jumped out of the closet? Supplies!"

It only took a second of brief silence before King Kai was rolling on the ground laughing. Figures he would appreciate a dad joke. Things got ridiculous when King Kai started hitting the ground while laughing and yelling out, "another one! another one!"

I shook my head and reached into my pockets. My hand came out with a small book titled, Dad Jokes first edition. I threw it over to King Kai and told him,

"There. Go crazy sensei. Call me once you're done. I'll be over on earth."

I then jumped out, I needed to see the differences between this timeline and the previous ones to plan accordingly. 

Before leaving my eyes strayed to the corner, where a rarely used feature of the Interface was. The heads up display maximized in my vision and I looked at my power level.

Power Level: [100,000,000,000,000]

100 trillion from 300 trillion. I sighed. It had been necessary. No one would see it coming. The good thing however…was that the mortal limit was no longer a problem. I could grow stronger. I smiled. It was finally time to use my broken skills,  Zenkai, Super fast growth and High level Adaptation to wreck the system. 

(Elsewhere - Soul Society)

A young boy was sleeping peacefully on a futon. His young face was scrunched up in fear and his body tossed and turned on the mat restlessly. Suddenly his eyes shot open and he got up. He rubbed his eyes and stared at his hands in a thoughtful expression. So…it worked.

The boy got up and left for the bathroom. He then washed his face and rubbed his hair dry from the bath before looking at the mirror. He had blue hair, stormy gray eyes and his face looked asian. His skin was smooth without any freckles and his body fit. Looking at it he would have guessed he was 15 years old physically. 

"I really wish the original didn't have to make me look like a shonen protagonist."

He muttered to himself. He then closed his eyes and activated his own version of the Interface that was nowhere close to the originals.

[Name: Asahi]

Reiryoku: Immeasurable (Sealed) 

Spiritual skills: Empty

Special Skills: Super Fast growth.

                          Danger Sense.

                          Enhanced Adaptation.

So the first thing he needed to do was unlock his Reiryoku. Asahi sat down on the mat from before and crossed his legs. He closed his eyes and cupped his hands on his lap. Then he breathed in and out. In and out, all the while he concentrated inwardly.

He used the Main body's experience in controlling his life force as well psionic energy to identify the well of spiritual energy bubbling under his skin. Asahi smiled a little as he finally touched upon the energy. Instantly, he realized he'd been wrong. It wasn't a well. It was a fucking ocean. 

A torrential wave of power poured out of his body and spread out through the whole soul society, like a beacon of light in a dark room. The room he was staying in exploded in a spray of wooden chips and he used every scrap of control he had to bring the Reiryoku to yield.

Danger Sense blared out multiple loud warnings to Asahi but he was helpless to do anything due to the weapons pointed at him from all sides.  The Onmitsukido. A presence made itself known in speeds Asahi couldn't keep up with and stared at him sternly. 

"You're coming with me."

The Captain of Squad 2 and commander in chief of the Stealth force, Soifon sternly said to Asahi.

(Elsewhere - Aladdin)

Aladdin winced his eyes in wonder as the light from the sun hit his face. Beside him the Genie appeared looking excited for finally leaving the cave where they had been stuck. Abu jumped from Aladdin's shoulders and started harassing the magic carpet that had escaped with them. 

A second later however, the genie's face suddenly changed as a blue glowing portal appeared a few feet away. Instantly, Aladdin's body went stiff, immobilized in place due to space constricting around him. The Genie looked desperately at Aladdin.

"Come on Kid. Say something. I can't do anything if you don't wish for something."

"Don't waste your breath, Genie. I have him totally under my control."

A deep voice said. Out stepped a tall Caucasian man dressed in a Tuxedo. He had black hair, looked to be about 20 and was obviously hiding a fit body under the Tuxedo.

"Who are you?"

Genie asked warily. He was the most powerful being in this universe but he couldn't do anything because of the restrictions placed upon him.

The man Chuckled.

"Me? I'm a simple nobody. Just call me, The Traveler. I simply wish to study the Lamp, after that, I'll leave peacefully just like I came in."

Genie didn't believe that. Aladdin's eyes were wide with fear as he frantically rolled them around. Genie saw the look on his face and understood that the strange man had them by the throat. 

"Ok. You can study it but mark my words, if you covet the lamp for yourself…"

Genie didn't need to finish for The Traveler to understand the threat. 

The Traveler walked forward and unstrapped the Lamp from Aladdin's hip. 

A brief surge of blue energy ran through the Lamp a few times before The Collector turned and directed the same energy to scan Genie. Genie didn't look fazed in the least, having sensed no ill will from the energy, just waiting it to end. 

Genie frowned in confusion. 

"That… energy…what is it? I've never sensed anything quite like it before."

The Traveler smiled before a card magically appeared in his hands. He threw the card forward to Genie who caught it.

"That's my card. Send your energy inside it if you want me to procure you something from the multiverse. For a fee of course."

A portal opened and The Traveler turned and entered it.

He stepped into a well furnished room and undressed, took a shower and dried himself up. Soft jazz music started playing as he looked out of the room. The view infront of him was of a world devastated by continuous monster attacks.

A world with equally strong individuals who fought these monsters on a daily basis to protect the ordinary civilian.

A glass of wine appeared in his hands as he enjoyed the setting sun. 

He was in One Punch Man.
