34 The Torture Training and its Origins

The sky was not yet bright, and the sun had yet to rise. The east sky just began to slowly turn bright, and the other side was still dark.

Slowly but surely, the sun was rising.

*BOOM!*

*BOOM!*

*BOOM!*

The early morning air was still cold and moist, yet the man that was doing his exercise outside the Academy, didn't feel the chills at all.

Right now, Jin was doing his set of one-thousand punches training while being under pressure by heavily increased gravity.

He was doing his training at the Academy's Main Avenue. Sonic Booms could be heard as he moderately kept punching to the air with all his might.

Shockwaves were produced from the explosive punches, but it wasn't strong enough to destroy the Academy's grounds.

Looking closely at his figure, Jin was shirtless and his perfect upper male body was shown to the world in all its glory.

He was wearing black trousers with a red, orange and yellow flame design on the right pant leg. As well as a silver lightning design on the left pant leg.

He also wasn't wearing any kinds of footwear, as he just stood barefoot on the Academy grounds.

He's already done his one-hundred push-ups, one-hundred sit-ups, one-hundred squats, and ten kilometer run earlier in his morning exercises.

But he managed to finish all of those too early in the morning, so Jin had to occupy himself with the one-thousand punches of gratitude in his free time.

(Authors Note: Definitely not a rip-off from Netero. But seriously though, even though its lesser than what Netero did, you have to take into account that his body was being subjected to increased gravity while doing his punches.)

But know that all of those was done by him with under the pressure of heavily increased gravity.

This was his routine when he somehow wakes up too early in the morning. As waking up too early was a frequent occurence for him.

This time, he woke up in around 4:30 in the morning, so he had to do some exercise and training to occupy himself on the free time.

This was the day that Jin will finally be back, from being an Instructor for the Academy to now being a normal student in Beacon again.

Well, to be an Elite Student to be exact. He still remembered his unique requirements for being an Elite Student, but right now his overall role can be said to be a normal student.

For him, it felt weird to be an actual student again.

Jin didn't really know the reason why, but now that he became a student again, its concept about it felt so weird and foreign to him now.

It was like he was suddenly changing cultures and traditions.

'My time as an Instructor.....Maybe I've grown used to it and unconsciously referred to it as a normal thing for me.' He thought.

Maybe he liked his time as an Instructor. Maybe he was too immersed on his job as teacher. Maybe, just maybe.....Who knows?

Regardless of it all, becoming a student again was now a foreign thing to him. It really weirded the elder red out.

'Jesus Christ. What have I become? Ozpin what have you done to me?!'

Jin immediately blamed his change on the headmaster of Beacon. Perhaps that white haired fox really knows where to put people on their proper roles.

Perhaps that man really knows how to gauge out an individuals talent and abilities.

Perhaps.....being a teacher, being a guide to everyone, was Jin's proper role.

'Whatever.....'

Jin denied it, as he felt that his role in the future would be something greater, and not just be a mere teacher.

He then continued on doing his one-thousand punches of gratitude.

The man was currently on eight-hundred and twenty-one punches, and a few minutes later he was now on nine-hundreds.

And then....

"A refreshing exercise to start the day, isn't that right Mr. Rose?" A man's voice suddenly said.

'Its him again.....But I admit it, his voice really has that 'leader' and 'intellectual' vibe. Just hearing his voice can already make a person think that the man is a composed and an intellectual person.'

Jin thought out before he stopped his punch training. He then turned around and saw that Ozpin was standing right behind him with a mug of coffee in his right hand.

"Man, you never let go of that mug do ya? I swear, even if the world is ending, the first thing you would protect will be that mug." Jin said.

Ozpin rolled his eyes, "Very funny. Now how about you? If the same thing happened, the very first thing you would protect would be your mask."

"Hey! At least mine is actually more precious than yours!" Jin pointed out.

"So your precious mask is more important than your sisters?" Ozpin said as he raised an eyebrow.

"Thatsss.....not what I mean.....You know what I'm talking about." Jin said as he straightened himself up.

He then did some light massage on his arms to get rid of the slight cramping pain that was caused by the training.

Ozpin let out a "Hmmm." before taking a sip of his coffee and saying, "Anyway, how does it feel to be a student again, Mr. Rose? Does it feel weird to you now?"

Jin's face turned into a deadpan expression, "Yes. I don't know why, but I'm blaming it on you."

Ozpin lightly chuckled, "Whatever you say young man."

He then took a moderate sip of his coffee before continuing, "So, how is the new training regimen for the first years?"

Yeah, that training. The training that was akin to torture for the students involved in it.

Jin smiled, "Pretty decent if you ask me. Even though they had it hard in the first day, they would eventually get used to it in the second day."

Some of the students were almost exhausted to death on that day. Most of them were extremely tired and every part of their body was in severe pain.

Yet, Jin described their status to be 'decent'.

"Well, everything's good if you don't go too hard on them. Afterall, your training regimen is a little.....harsh if I say so myself. I wouldn't want my students to break before they would be sent out to the field." Ozpin said with a helpless smile.

He knew what happened to the poor youths on the first day of their torture training.

"Don't worry about that, I've learned some stuff from that day and I'm going to make some adjustments for them to be able to hang on for just a little longer next time." Jin said as he had a slightly sadistic smile.

"Well, just do what you have to do Mr. Rose. Hehe, I believe in your ability to make things work for them." Ozpin said before taking a sip of his coffee and then started walking.

That's right, Jin was the one who came up with their torture training!

In the days that Jin spent in this Academy. He noticed that most of the students here were having it easy because they were in 'The Time of Peace'.

This made him scoff at the carefree thinking of the students and he immediately took action.

He knew the future events of Remnant too well. He knows that Beacon only has some several months left before it would be wiped off the map, along with Vale.

He had to make these students stronger, he had to toughen them up before the big fight, he had to prepare them for the coming calamity.

Especially team RWBY and JNPR, he had to make them all stronger than they originally were when the attack on Beacon occured so there won't be any unnecessary tragedies.

Like Pyrrha.....

Of course, he would also try to turn the situation around in Vale. He was here afterall. He was a strong black horse in this game. With him here, changes may actually happen.

Jin might actually turn the situation around if he does it right. He was quite powerful himself and he was sure that he could beat Cinder and her dogs.

Even if she still manages to steal the powers of the Fall Maiden, he was confident that he could still easily overpower her.

Afterall he once faced a Maiden, and the outcome wasn't on the Maiden's favor.

So thats why he went to talk to Ozpin on implementing his bizzare training regimen to the students.

He explained to him his reasons, but of course he didn't tell him all of it, he explained to him the details of the training and how would it benefit the students.

Ozpin immediately agreed to Jin's proposal because he knew that these kinds of activities can truly make the students stronger.....No, they would be alot stronger.

Even though the training was harsh and torturous, the hellish training can truly bring good results on the strength gains of the students.

Jin was the perfect example of that.

He knew that Jin didn't make this training out of the blue without even trying it on himself. He knew that Jin experienced this kind of training when he was young.

It was one of the reasons why the Punisher was overwhelmingly strong.

It wasn't just because of his Monstrous Aura nor his semblances, it was also because of his natural body strength and physique.

And his torture training can definitely help the students achieve similar results in over time.

As for the details of the training, it was pretty simple actually.

It was basically what Jin was doing right now in his exercises and training routine, but it was slightly changed and some new activities were added.

Such as the Dupa Drills, Maximum Speed Cartwheels, Side-way flips and many other body strengthening exercises.

Although torturous when performed under the pressure of heavily increased gravity, it can truly make the body stronger and better.

As for where the gravity increase came from, the students was made to wear a special pairs of arm and ankle weights. But these weights were very special.

It can be said that they were devices. They have a small hard glass chamber as part of the weights that contains a decent amount of purplish black Dusts.

Just like what Jin was wearing right now in his training exercise. There was some weird looking weights on his arms and ankles.

These were Gravity types of Dust. It is the reason how the person that wears the weights, would experience a drastic increase of Gravity on their bodies.

Normally, the Gravity type of Dust are used for anti-gravity purposes. Meaning that they are used to make things levitate or float.

But the special arm and ankle weights that Jin named 'G-Buster', were devices that were designed to reverse the effects of Gravity Dusts.

Meaning that with this device, Gravity Dusts can be used to heavily increase the Gravity of objects!

It was truly a wonderous device. Jin really loved the tech as it is extremely useful for training hunters and huntresses alike.

Although Jin didn't make it, the idea of the concept came from him. Instead he had some people make it for him, he just merely gave some ideas and inspirations.

The one that managed to make the first G-Busters was some several scientists in Atlas, whom Jin told them of the concept of the device in his mercenary days.

Jin didn't limit the technology on Atlas, he actually had it spread to the other Kingdoms with a few help of some people, and his employers.

So that's why Vale managed to make their own G-Busters and have it distributed to Beacon for utility and training purposes.

The devices even had this feature that they will be able to manually increase the strength of the gravity increase.

From two times to fifty times of the normal gravity.

"Hehe, I know that you'll make do in your ability to get the students into good shape. And for that, I wish you good luck Mr. Rose."

Ozpin said in farewell as he started on walking towards the entrance to prepare himself for another day in the Academy.

Jin just smiled before he immediately got back to his activity. But then he was reminded of something.

"Oh yeah, when are you gonna have my Seniors join in on the fun?"

Ozpin turned and placed a hand on his chin in a thinking manner.

When Jin proposed to him for the training regimen for all year levels in the Academy, Ozpin actually refused to have the second years and above be involved in the training.

Only the first years have to be subjected for now, and Ozpin didn't tell Jin the reason yet.

"Your Seniors have.....other activities that they should do. So for now, I can't have them participate in your training yet. But it will happen soon though, so don't you worry." He said before finally entering the Academy.

"Ok then."
