Chapter 34 - Supreme Body

The next morning, Haruto was training at his usual spot where he was looking at the book that had Hercules Method written on it. He read the content and wondered if it was going to work but trusting that it will use the information that it gave him began to feel the sudden change going through his body.

'This thing is too powerful!' Haruto's whole body was rapidly changing and growing with his mind, spirit and body beginning in perfect alignment and could feel the impulses in his body. He felt every inch as if they were in conscious control.

His mind began to calm down and everything became clear to him where his body's limitation was slowly vanishing and he tried using [ Yuuki Style: Forbidden Technique - Tempest ] where his power exploded and every fiber of his muscle began to scream in agony. However, he used [ Hercules Methods ] teaching and began to lessen the effect until it vanished completely.

Haruto started to feel hungry and needed nutritious food which is why he bought some pills in the shop to give him the necessary food that his body was craving without needing to spend money on food. He was growing even stronger than before reaching a stage of Expert that facing Ohma wouldn't be one sided anymore.

Though, he'll still get his ass whooped against someone experienced fighters like Grandmaster from Ryozanpaku but this made him a monster among monsters. He used his pinky to leap himself and shockingly it worked without an issue and breathing was a lot easier than before.

[ Perfect body Sub power of Big Daniel Park has changed into "Supreme Body(???)" ]

Haruto broke through and reached a level unlike before exhaled where even a few hours of training and using the [ Hercule Methods ] had completely helped him reach a new level of strength where he was at the stage of being in cocoon. He is essentially at the "Ha" stage of "ShuHaRi" stage of learning martial arts and hasn't connected what he had learned.

Haruto stood up with inverted colored eyes but this time the pupil turned red indicating that he had completely integrated the [ Hercules Methods ]. Normally it takes a few days to see transformation but Haruto has already been training and simply needs to align his body, Mind and spirit.

Though, having the perfect alignment is tricky and needs a lot of concentration but the result would speak for itself as his power exploded into something countless times better than before.

However, this doesn't improve his skill in martial arts and a extremely well trained in defensive martial art can counter then defeat him like Kuroki Gensai, or devil lance, a character from Kengan Ashura who fought physical superior people yet showcased an extreme level of skills that he able to defeat them.

'Amazing!! I can use this state however long I want!' He was amazed and decided to even add [ Possessing spirit/Advanced ], The Possessing Spirit involves overclocking the heart's cardiovascular output to rapidly boost their metabolic rate. The result increases their velocity, acceleration, torque and, consequently, their damage output. Because of its effects, it is usually used as a trump card.

While using Possessing Spirit, the user's heartbeat grows loud enough to be heard from a distance, their body becomes extremely vascular, with their blood vessels becoming noticeably visible on the surface of their skin and also causing the user's skin to become red, the user's hair begins to float and flare in the air (similar to static hair), the user also maintains a feral smile across their face. The technique also causes a shift in personality to where they can eventually become a mindless berserker. The technique has three "stages" that determine the level of power gained:

First Gear: The first stage causes the user's vascularity and speed to increase at a relatively moderate level. There's a noticeable shift in the user's personality, with them wearing a terrifying grin on their face when fighting.

Second Gear: This "intermediate" stage was only used by Ohma, at a point in time where the "shackles" Chi Blockage became more and more undone through both time and consistent use. The user's skin becomes even redder, and the power output increases to the point where the user can shatter bones. The behavioral aspects are amplified as well.

Full Throttle: The third stage, Full Throttle refers to using the Possessing Spirit at its full potential. With the heart rate at its fastest, the user's damage output is increased dramatically. In this stage, the user also gains a truly demonic appearance; their skin becomes a very dark red in color, their vascularity is far more pronounced and the sclera of their eyes darken significantly, to the point of resembling the telltale black eyes of the Kure clan.

The user is also overcome by an illogical bloodlust, demonstrated by Ohma's resultant rampages in both times he had reached this stage. An experienced user of this stage is able to curb and control their bloodlust to an extent.

Haruto went to the first gear immediately to reach Expert level of power then went to second gear before going to full throttle where he could feel every cells in his body but the Hercules methods didn't allow him to feel the backlashes where he was truly the master of his own body reaching close to Grandmaster but does somewhat tire his mind. He should be dead yet haven't died as he was able to freely control his body and remove all the veins and simply had his eyes but every fiber of his body was condenses.

'Is this what [ Supreme Body ] is?' Haruto thought to himself and quickly tried to test his strength but walking over a tree and sliding his hand instantly felt nothing, putting a slash mark on it.

'This is dangerous! I can't remain in this even if it increases my power but it would be bad if I accidentally kill someone!' Haruto exclaimed and quickly removed his state since it was so powerful that he might accidentally kill someone like Rito and Mikan. He doubts he could hurt Lala since she's too strong. Haruto decided to test the full extent later since he has to return and get to school.

'But I can use it against someone stronger and go full force without holding back. Still relying purely on strength won't help me increase my technique.' He didn't want to be too cocky and believed he was invincible.

'What should I call that form? Hmmm yeah, let's call it Supreme Paragon.' Haruto decided to check what the supreme body was about.

[ Supreme Body ]

[ Description: The pinnacle of the human Body made by Cain and one that a certain clan had been trying to replicate but had failed.

The user has complete and total control over one's bodily capabilities, both biologically (e.g. muscles, bones, veins, neurons, etc) and systematically (e.g. reflexes, instincts, coordination, psychomotor movement, etc); being able to move athletically and acrobatically with remarkable grace in conjunction of sustaining a willful enhancement of one's own biological systems to maximize their performance.

Some users are able to use his/her body in any way one wishes, which allows them to take control over their motions, augment themselves and resilience against forced motor control and/or transfiguration by others.

Making the user completely immune to any external manipulation of the anima nor corporea. Such as Telekinesis, Possession, Telepathy, Blood Manipulation etc.

Limitation:

Involuntary actions or processes (like metabolic rate, heart rate, reflexes, etc...) may or may not be controllable by the user.

Overriding reflexes and instincts can lead to more vulnerabilities.

Control of one's entirety can be nullified if the mind and body cannot communicate (i.e. the nerve clusters which link the brain to the body were to be disrupted somehow).

How much the user can enhanced themselves may depend on their biological potential. ]

Haruto was satisfied and headed home satisfied with his training where he met up with everyone back home taking a seat in breakfast. He noticed that he was able to see through their skin and saw their muscles even predict their movement a lot more clearer than before with [ Foresight ].

"Nii-san what happened to your eyes?" Mikan asked where everyone looked to see his eyes permanently inverted and had a red pupil.

"That looks really amazing! How did you do that? I saw you once with white pupils but never red." Lala remarked while touching his face, getting a closer look while Haruto wryly smiled.

"Uhmm, It's the result of my training. Does it scare you?" Haruto asked.

"No, I'm just surprised, that's all." Mikan said and Haruto nodded as he glanced over to Rito who was still awkward around him. Haruto nodded wondering what he should do about it since he couldn't return it the way it was before. It's ironic considering he has full control over this body.

'I don't like contact lenses….Blindfold might help especially in training and give people that answer if they ask.' Haruto thought to himself and went to find some blindfold where he couldn't physically see but had ridiculous senses that he was able to see without a problem.

"Are you really going to school like that, Nii-san?" Rito asked, unable to remain silent about it and worried that he might trip and Haruto shook his head.

"Nah, I can see a lot more clearly than before. Also it's like training my senses. But does it look good on me?" Haruto posed a bit putting his fingers in check shape to his chin.

"Umu, you look great, Haruto!" Lala said not minding about his appearance since she likes him for his personality. Haruto smiled and after some time headed to school. He gathers people's attention by seeing his blindfold and walking without a problem.

"Haruto-Nii!? Why are you wearing a blindfold!? Did you get injured last night!? I heard from Najima that you had fought someone called Hermit!?" Kenichi walked over, scared that Haruto got blinded only for him to receive a flick in the forehead.

"Relax, my eyesight is fine, I just thought this was a great way to train." Haruto said while Kenichi couldn't believe his words.

"...I can't understand why you like training so much. Isn't it complete torture?" Kenichi said remembering the hardship he had to endure every time he trained.

"But I made us strong, didn't it?" Haruto said walking over to his seat while he sat down where the class started and when it was over had few of his classmates stop to talk with him.

"Did something happen? Why did you suddenly wear a Blindfold?" Miu asked when they were having their lunch break. She felt that Haruto had changed and exuded more power that she was unsure as to what reason why he suddenly became like this.

"Well, you know when I use [ Ultra instinct ]." Haruto received a piece of food from Lala and ate it while Miu was feeling strange seeing it. Kenichi was not with them and apparently had lunch with Yuka Izumi. The guy has more courage than his brother!

"Yeah, that's when you reach the level of an Expert." Miu saw it a few times when he trained with the grandmaster in Ryozanpaku. He was a lot different every time he used and even shocking when he mixed [ Surpass Limits] to create different techniques. He is able to make them take him a bit more seriously.

"Well…" Haruto removed the blindfold, shocking Miu when she saw the black sclera and red eyes that show murderous intent.

"It became permanent and my power reached a profound level that I am unsure of the limits." Haruto said, feeding Lala who happily took it.

"I see, that's why you're using a blindfold. Maybe grandpa knows how to change it back." Miu said while Haruto put his chopstick towards her face.

"Waaah!? W-What are you doing?" Miu was confused why he suddenly fed her and Haruto tilted his head.

"I mean you've been looking at us and thought you might like some chicken Teriyaki that Mikan-chan made." Haruto answers a bit oblivious to what's happening in the hearts of Miu who blush.

"Yeah, try it, Miu-san! It's really good! Mikan is amazing at cooking." Lala said and Miu hesitated wondering if this was normal for friends to do and because she doesn't want to lose them took it and was impressed by its taste.

"Oh wow, this is delicious. Maybe I'll ask Mikan-chan to teach me when she visits." Miu was impressed by its taste and after some time went back then headed to Ryozanpaku where the grandmaster saw him wearing a blindfold but senses something different from Haruto. He was even more dangerous than before.

"Hey, kid, why are you wearing a blindfold?" Sakaki asked.

"Ah right…hold on." Haruto slowly removed them and everyone saw his eyes had changed, surprising them.

"These eyes…you're starting to look like the Wu clan in China who are also relatives of the Kure clan." Kansei Ma said since he had met them a few times and was an ally of his Phoenix alliance.

"What a strange thing. Come here for a moment, Haruto-kun." Akisame said and went to change his body only for his eyes to widen upon discovering everything was as if under Haruto's command.

"How is this possible?" He asked, seeing that Haruto grew exponentially and could easily be labeled at the peak of High discipline. Shigure was on the roof looking at Haruto wondering what's going on.

"Young man, tell the truth…what method did you do to accomplish this?"
