CHAPTER 3: IT'S I KURO SENSEI

After 5 days you could see Joji in the basement training. He was practicing the martial arts and he had actually reached a very high stage in the martial arts.

In the basement, Joji was practicing WHIRLWIND STREAM MARTIAL FIST. Joji's upper body was naked, he was actually training it with his normal body. There was part in the manual that he hadn't achieved yet. It could be easily done in his 1 % power form, but he decided to train his body and achieve it. The part he hadn't achieved yet was activating his " LIFE FORCE " he could do it in his transformation but he just couldn't activate it.

He was hesitant about asking the system, he wanted to do it on his own, but he had to ask now.

" Hey system why is my chi ( life force ) not activating ? " Joji signed. At last, he still had to ask the system.

[ HOST HAS WEAKENED LIFE FORCE IN HIS ORIGINAL BODY. HOST SHOULD CONSIDER STRENGTHENING HIS ORIGINAL HUMAN BODY BY ABSORBING LIFE FORCE WITH { THE MACHETE OF LIFE } ]

He understood. He was in coma for a year and the only things keeping him alive was his white tiger transformation.

" So if I kill someone I automatically gain their life force ? " he asked.

[ NO YOU HAVE TO LINK IT TO HE SOUL. DO YOU WANT TO LINK IT WITH 10 SHOP POINTS ? ]

" Yes " he didn't need to consider. He wanted his original body to be strong too. Suddenly. He felt a sharp pain and passed out.

After some time, Joji opened his eyes and looked around. He was still in the basement and someone was knocking on the basement door.

He went towards the door and opened it.

" Huh, why didn't you open the door ? I have was knocking for the last 5 mins ? " Angela asked with a worried look.

This text was taken from Royal Road. Help the author by reading the original version there.

" Uhh …. I fell asleep " he spouted a lie, but, Angela didn't seem suspicious.

" Let's go to eat " said Angela. Apparently it was already night, if he remembered correctly it was at afternoon that he fell unconscious after a sharp pain.

While walking up stairs he asked the system what happened.

[ THE { MACHETE OF LIFE } HAS BEEN LINKED TO HOSTS SOUL, NOW YOU CAN ABSORB LIFE FORCE WHEN KILLING THROUGH THE MACHETE ]

Yes. He was happy. He could just kill thugs and take their life force. He knew the perfect place to collect, life force, abilities and mutations.

After he reached up stairs, he eat and went out, telling Angela that he was going for a stroll.

He knew about wuxia novels, he read. Soul bound weapons would come in hand anytime, as long as you want it.

Joji willed it and a black machete with several designs came into his hands. He again willed it to disappear and it vanished from his hands.

After walking for several blocks he reached an alleyway. He saw 4 adults pointing knife at an old man. He wasn't a hero, he might have ignored it, but now, he need the life force of these people.

Unlike the novels protagonist, he didn't yell " you stop right there ". He made his way behind them slowly with his machete. As he reached closer he could see them. He was in his normal human form so he wasn't that strong but with the martial arts he learned recently he could easily kill them. As he got closer he noticed all 4 of them were wearing black hoodies, caps and mask.

He didn't wait anymore. He immediately swung his machete and 2 thugs at the middle died instantly, it didn't end here though. The thugs who were killed started turning into mummy's, their blood and everything inside their skin turned into a ball of light and entered Joji.

" Who are you ? Ahhhhhhhh " Just as the thug on the left side was about to ask who the man who attacked them was, his two thug partners turned into a ball of light and disappeared. The thug screamed like a kid, which made it really funny.

Suddenly. Joji's body began glowing with a yellow glow. A yellow colored aura surrounded him. He felt stronger than before. He rushed towards the thug at the left and immediately, instead of a single thug, the thug at the right died too. The same thing happened to them as the only thing left from their body was skin.

The old man was covering his face till now. Joji picked up the clothes of the thugs and shook it. Several money notes rained down from their clothes. He quickly disappeared, he did not want the old man to know his identity. He didn't leave his money, why would he ? He was no hero, but he felt pity for the old man and left the money.

The old man covering his face didn't feel anything and opened his eyes. He found nothing, but money on the floor.

The old man quickly forgot about the assault and picked the money.

The old man laughed frantically while collecting the money and yelling " DEATH HAS DESCENDED UPON YOU EVIL PEOPLE "

+++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++

Joji was flying through the roofs. His body not glowing this time, but he was a lot more faster. Apparently the life force from the thugs had strengthened his body too.

He wanted to know what his limits were so he activated his aura and launched towards his house at full speed.

Mach 1 …. mach 10 .... mach 13 .... mach 24

He speed was as fast as koro sensei's but there were no sonic booms. He thought it might have been because of the yellow aura emanating from his body. But he reached mach 24 in just a second and immediately stopped.

He then jumped back to the road and walked home. He couldn't help but giggle as he walked towards his house. With machete he could harness more life force and become more strong. In this world of power he was destined to be OP.
