Prodigy

"Now, We Fight!"

The man said as without grabbing the ropes, he jumped into the ring, landing strongly in a fighting stance. Saikō on the other hand would kick the box of crates to the side as he realized the weights vanished off of him. He cracked his neck and knuckles while walking towards the man.

"You think I need weapons to beat your sorry ass?"

Saikō would say with a smirk as he did a front flip onto the stage, similar to the man they both didn't touch the ropes. The man would smile under the mask as he wasted no time rushing toward Saikō.

"Big talk for someone who just got knocked out!" The man would exclaim as he sent a palm strike to Saikō's abdomen but surprisingly, Saikō skillfully swiped his left hand down to swat away the attack and send a powerful right jab to the mans chest but the man but the man just as skillfully swiped his left hand upwards at the punch to deflect it and counter by send his right knee flying to Saikō stomach but again Saikō blocks it with his left hand while quickly grabbing the back of the man hand with his right hand and striking him with his left elbow.

The power of the attack was strong enough to put a crack in the Oni mask as both Saikō and the man backed away into their original positions.

"To think you'd best me this fast...I didn't even have to teach you anything..!!" The man said shocked and with defeat. Although he only lost because he significantly held back, he couldn't help but admit that the Saikō from this universe was much more stronger...

"The fight didn't even last 10 seconds...you will be a force to wreckon with" The man says as the next thing he does was unexpected. He plunges his hand through his own chest as blood gushes out. Saikō looks at him in shock.

"WHAT ARE YOU DOING!?"

"You...are me...the only way to pass this power onto you is by destroying this body and merging our souls as one. I'll still be here but sealed in the spiritual realm so you'll have to meditate to contact me"

He explains as his body starts cracking and light beams from out of him as the physical body is completely destroyed. As this happens, suddenly Saikō's eyes turn all white and he starts levitating as he begins ascending.

[You have accepted the power!]

[The power is being absorbed!!!]

[For now we shall explain to you this ability, thanks to the help of Saikō from a parallel world]

As Saikō would appear in another mind space but a virtual one, he would be calm and serious as he processed the information and could already understand that the man this whole time was just him but from a parallel universe. All of that yapping from earlier was finally making since.

[The original power was called duplication which allowed the user to duplicate anything. Although you could probably imagine the the plenty of uses for this, due to the previous user maxing out the talent + your own talent, this power has evolved into a stronger version called double!

This means that instead of duplicating, you can simply double something to 2 and double that 2 to 4 and so on. This applies to not only anything but to anyone and yourself as well. Due to this feature you will be provided a exclusive stats window which will allow you to see your own stats.]

[Your body is undergoing a change...]

[You have inherited two powers!]

- (Sunpō Seals): A red cross shaped seal that are located on both the right and left palms of the users hand. It's basically Kamui + Flying Thunder God but put into seals

- (Loop of Binding): It appears as a metal ring floating around his head at the forehead like a crown. Loop of Binding allows him to have perfect control over his power no matter how strong he gets and can use this to seal/unseal his own power

[Your body has transformed!]

(His appearance is the same as the book cover)

[Create your name]

"I am...Saikō Mugen "

[You have fully inherited this power, Saikō Mugen!]

(Outside)

"No way this loser is still out here" A familiar voice said as the three boys from earlier went outside to the spot where they beat up Saikō after they didn't find him inside of his room.

"Heh heh heh I guess you gottem good" the third boy would say arrogantly. As they came closer they would notice Saikō standing up and staring at his hand, but Saikō didn't look like Saikō and his aura was almost suffocating. His body was extremely defined and built although he maintained his slim figure. His hair was white and a metal ring hovered around his head. His eyes were red with golden pupils too.

"Look at that! We beat that loser so bad he changed col-mMPH!!!" As the first boy was about to mock Saikō, Saikō would be standing next time him instantly while his palm covered the face of the boy, almost gripping the skin off of his face.

"Silence..." was all Saikō would say as he didn't have any real words to say to the boys. Saikō closed his eyes and looked away before slowly opening again, with no emotion and saying, "You did this to yourself..."

As he quickly pulled his hand away and snatched the boys face completely off as they fell on their needs and then on their face as a puddle of blood started forming on the grass. The other two boys started backing away in fear as Saikō only stood there.

"HELPPPPPP!!!" One of the boys would yell to alert the orphanage security who consisted of 3 chuunin shinobi. Quickly, Saikō blitzed in the middle of both boys, completing destroying their voice boxes before they could even realize it.

"Calling for help is useless...but this is a good opportunity to test out my abilities!" Saikō said with a smile as he stood there looking down on the boys as he waited on the security to arrive.

"Let the games begin! "
