" nine hundred seventy !!! "

In a wide, open space under the changing colors of the sky.

* Huff * Huff *

" nine hundred seventy one "

a single person was doing something amazing. He balanced on just two fingers, sweat running down his strong body. The sunlight turned his skin into a warm, golden shade, and the sweat looked like tiny diamonds shining on his iron like muscles.

With complete concentration, he went up and down, using his body like a seesaw. It was as if his muscles were dancing. The ground felt firm beneath him, supporting his weight as he moved.

The air smelled fresh, mixed with the smell of dirt and grass. A bird sang in the distance, and everything felt peaceful. The way he breathed matched the rhythm of his movements, like a song that only he could hear.

" AGHHHHH NINE HUNDRED NINETY NINE !! "

Yep, like a ' song ' only he could hear .

" ONE THOUSAND !! " 

* Huff * Huff *

" Fuck my life "

-----------------

It has been 5 years since that fortunate day where i fought with sakumo . Many things happened after that, my mom retiring from ninja work, becoming a housewife officially much to my relief. Even though i know she is very strong but it still makes me worried .

sakumo is in anbu now so i don't know what he is doing , and he didn't visit us all this years . that heartless bastard only cares about the village and his job .

And father started to laze around in home because of how peaceful this past 5 years were with no war or anything big going on .

You know, i always believed in that saying that it says .

- Strong men create peaceful times, peaceful times create weak men, weak men create hard times, hard times create strong men and again strong men create peaceful times -

My father is very strong , like he is really strong . Maybe he is even a kage powerhouse i don't know but the moment some new memories and experiences got drilled into me when the Assimilation progressed as i grew up , my awareness of the surroundings got enhanced because of all the fights Garou had done with the heroes .

so now i could measure someone's strength with a look but it's not very accurate, for now .

The memories of garou this time was about how Bang kicked him out of the dojo because he beat the crap out of the other disciples, making many seriously injured. him stealing some secrets scrolls from Bang.

and him fighting and hunting heroes from that moment on .

He fought many heroes . for example, when he was in the hero headquarters and decimated every criminal and some heroes there like blue fire and magic trick man .

Tanktop vegeterian, S-rank hero Tank topper with his group of hooligans, mumin rider and many more heroes later on .

I have memories of him till the moment where he first meets saitama ...

ohh you guessed right, he does a karate chop aiming the shoulder of the FREAKING saitama, like bro... if i have ever felt garou scared shitless in those memories then it's when this crazy fucker get stared at menacingly and choped by saitama .

And guess what ? He loses the memory of himself meeting saitama because his brain couldn't stand the feeling of being defeated while feeling scared of this unknown hero so his brain automatically adapts to the feeling by removing the memory, like What the heck ?! My brain could do what now ?!

But i have to admit that saitama looks really menacing, even thinking about him now gives me chills, that look he had when OG garou chopped him ...

' Chills '

" sighhh let's just forget it please, it's not a pleasant memory" i mutter to my self .

There have not been many things that i was busy with except me training some martial arts from other worlds like Niko style from kengan ashura AND the freaking Fist Of The North Star, a legendary Art that i dream to learn one day. Well, i think it's everyone's dream if they are a genuine otaku .

But it seems impossible for now because i don't know how the human body works. I read once that this Hakuto Shinken relies primarily on 708 vital points on the human body that forms a channel or something, so i have to learn how the human body works in this world where people have chakra and chakra points .

But guess what ? I accidentally learned how to perform a ripoff marine six style shigan from one piece because of how much i wanted to imitate The fist of the north star and how i pierced that pitiful tree near my training place multiple times to get it .

And in this 5 years, my only focus was on the Niko style because of the benefits that it could bring me if i master it .

This style is made of four different katas, or forms, each of which must be fully mastered in order for the niko style to be complete .

The first kata is Adamantine Kata: indestructible . It's a technique that hardens the body by flexing all the muscles in one's body at once, it's used for defense but it can have some offensive uses too .

The second kata is Flame Kata . It is centered around movement and positioning, giving the user incredible speed and agility.

The third kata is Redirection Kata. involves seeing and manipulating the 'flow of power', using minimal motions to turn the opponent's attacks against them. As a result, this kata requires incredible kinetic vision and delicate physical control which i don't lack fortunately .

even though my water stream is the ultimate Art of redirecting forces but it's not something that i want to show people that easily, so this Kata could replace it mostly .

The fourth kata is Water Kata. It is a grappling-based kata that places emphasis on flexibility and fluidity of motion which is perfect for someone like me who has water stream rock smashing fist as a base Art .

All the four Katas have their own diversity with many different implications and techniques that i can use in most situations . And not to mention that they all have an ultimate secret technique which i am trying to recreate .

Most will say why don't you train water stream rock smashing fist so that you could refine and make it better and assimilate further but bruhh ...

I have read many template Fanfictions in my free time to see that all the MCs only train their respective characters way of training when they'll eventually unlock whatever shit the OG dude did where it will be drilled into them anyways later on .

I was so frustrated when i realized that they could spend that time into something better instead of doing something that becomes meaningless when their template assimilate more .

So what's the point in me training something to get what i will have anyways ? Can anyone make that Art more perfect than it already is ? Are there anyone better than OG Garou to do this ? Not really . Well, saitama could but there is no saitama here so ...

I inhale and exhale before starting to go back to my home bare feet .

* Slide *

I slide the front door of my house and go inside .

" I am back " i said loud enough for my parents to hear .

" ohh son, you are back " my dad replies while laying lazily at the couch of our living room .

" that's what i said " i replied .

" Did you finish your workout ? " he asked .

" you have seen how i train, you really consider that just a mere workout ? " i ask rhetorically while feeling irritated at this lazy bum .

" hmmm " he puts his hand on his chin in a contemplating manner, probably thinking about how i train.

Flash back /

" MY ARM MY ARMMM !! " i shout because i broke my arm doing excess push ups ....

- Swoosh -

" MY FINGERSS MY FINGERSS !! " i shout because i broke my fingers by hitting that damn tree with it .

- swoosh -

" HELP !! blurghh gulp gulp HEEEEELP I CAN'T SWIM " i shout while drowning because i wanted to go under the water and do shadow boxing in there but after a while my body couldn't take it anymore, so some of my bones cracked .

- swoosh -

" AHHHHH HEEEEELP !! I CAN'T FLY " i shout because i threw myself from a cliff .

And the list goes on ...

Flashback End /

" Nahhh , i could do better, when i was your age, i had a seal on me whith the weight of 10 Tons you hear me kid ? 10 TONS !! . Then i threw myself into a volcano, i came out unscathed . I remember one time they tortured me to death in Iwagakure, bring me back to life then torture me to death again !!, sighhh Kids this days are so fragile " he bullshited while i was looking at him with a deadpan expression .

I shake my head a little ' age really hit him hard, he is a lost cause now ' i thought .

then i start to make my way to the bathroom and take a shower .

" Ohhh Son !! " he shouts

" yes ? " i reply .

" Make it quick because i have something to tell you with your mom " he said .

" Ok " i replied then made my way to the bathroom and slowly take off my clothes and get into the bathtub .

20 minutes later /

I slowly dry myself with a towel while getting closer to the mirror to take a look at my self ...

* whistle *

" Holy shit dude , L.O.O.K at that abs ... some will mistake it for turkish Baklava and eat me BUT i have something better for that hehehe "

The End .
