Chapter 005

Before reading this chapter, I would like to suggest listening to the music titled Redo by Suzuki Konomi Re:Zero Op

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

Police P.O.V.

After the incident, I reported to the station about the result of the investigation. The Commisioner General called an emergency meeting regarding about the incident reported.

"Alright everyone is here. Let's start our meeting." (Commisioner General)

As the Commisioner General said that he stared at me, signaling me to report about the whole incident and the result of the investigation.

"Officer Kanda, tell us all about the Robbery incident that lead to attempted kidnapping." (Commisioner General)

"Yes sir. The incident about robbery taken placed at Tokyo, and we had captured all the members of the robbery group except for the leader with a strong quirk. His quirk can cause the air to ignite and create an explosion. He escaped our blockade and proceeded to an nursery school. There he attempted to kidnapped a child to use as hostage for his escape. The villain assaulted the teacher of the school for trying to stop him. And then a student fought him without a quirk and eventually defeated him." (Kanda)

"....."

Silence permeated the room. A few seconds passed Detective Tsukauchi Naomasa asked.

"Is that the result of the investigation?" (Tsukauchi)

"Yes detective. I asked all the witnessed and their statement are the same. They said "Jake rushed to the villain and beat him". I also asked the one whom they pointed and he did admit defeating the villain." (Kanda)

"Are there any evidence excluding the witnessed statement?" (Tsukauchi)

"None detective, the villain seems to know the blind spots of our surveillance cameras and used it to avoid detection." (Kanda)

"Hmmm. Officer Kanda, did you run the child a background check? I would like to meet this kid." (Tsukauchi)

"Yes detective. The kid's name is Jake Suzuki. His parent's are Kanae Suzuki and Jason Suzuki. His dad owns a dojo and became well known for training a lot of Rookies that have become Pro-Hero. From the witnesses statement about their classmate Jake, all of them have one common comment about him. They describe him as a training addict. According to them, Jake never played with anybody from them. Instead, he keep on training from push up to sit up and so on." (Kanda)

"Well, that's kinda weird for a kid to do such thing. Did the parents imposed him to train?" (Tsukauchi)

"No they didn't. His teacher statement said that his parents are worried about him not interacting with kids the same age. And when I asked if she knows why this Jake trains so hard she said "Jake have this dream that he pursue with all his attention and effort. 'To become a strong hero like Allmight.' that's what Jake's dream." (Kanda)

"So a kid who want to be Allmight huh. This kid seems promising, he might... no he will become a Pro-hero if he doesn't stray in his path of becoming one. Everyone! I'm ordering all of you to not leak any kind of any information about this incident. Especially about the kid. If villains know about this they will remove him to avoid another strong hero to rise." (Commissioner General)

"Yes sir." (Everyone)

"Officer Kanda. Call a press conference and spread the news about the culprits of the robbery being caught by the police. Remove the information about the kid. Do a cover up story about it. Also give me the list of witnesses, it's better to ask them not to spread any of it in the public. Detective Naomasa I want you to prevent the witnesses from spreading new that concerns the incident." (Commissioner General)

"Yes sir." (Tsukauchi)

"Alright. Everyone dismissed." (Commissioner General)

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

After a long and eventful day I finally got home. While eating dinner with my parents, mom suddenly spoke to me.

"Jake, please don't do reckless things. We were really worried about you. Please promise us that you'll never do such thing again." (Kanae)

"But mom how can I turn blind to what happened. You saw teacher Diana's wounds right, I can't just leave a villain who had harm our teacher and tried to use one of my classmate as hostage. How can I become hero if I turned blind to those who need me now." (Jake)

Hearing my answer dad finally spoke.

"But Jake your still young. There so much more for you to learn. Promise us Jake that you wouldn't do reckless things like you've done before." (Jason)

Seeing my father and mother's worried face, I lost my reason and nod my head. My father asked the details about the incident. I revealed all not hiding any secret including about awakening my Observation Haki.

"So your saying after you got so angry something awaken within you. You were able to know where your opponent's next attack because of it. When you describe it like that, it seems you have awaken the 6th sense or battle instinct. From the legends of I remembered what awakened to you is what they so called Minds eye." (Jason)

"Minds eye. Like not using my eyes to see things? But isn't that just a legend?" (Kanae)

"I believe so, but since Jake experience something like that it seems it is real." (Jason)

It seems that dad knows about Observation Haki from legends. I should train my Observation Haki now so I can develop it like Katakuri's Haki that can see the future for a few seconds. Also I should train Soru and Geppo to upgrade my fighting style. After the battle with a villain, I found myself slow in terms of speed. I have practiced Soru, I should have dodge his attacks easily.

Thinking about this I have formed a plan to utilize time in order to have more free time. I ask my parents about this.

"Dad, mom. I want to ask permission about something." (Jake)

"Can I skip grades?" (Jake)

"Hmm. Before we answer it, can you give me the reason why your doing it?" (Kanae)

"Umm. I would like to have much free time so I can train more. In order to be prepared if another incident happens. As I grew stronger I can easily fight or run away from any enemy. Depending on the situation arises I may be forced to fight. That is why I need to train more." (Jake)

"...."

My parents looked each other for a while and looked towards me. After letting out a sigh both of them gave their permission.

"Okay Jake, we'll permit you to skip grades. Only if you promise us a few things. One you will avoid any conflict, second dont act recklessly like you did earlier, three if you fail even a single subject we'll drop your idea of skipping grades and lastly you have to make a friend and introduce to us." ( Kanae)

Looking at my parent's serious face, I agreed without resisting.

"I promised."

After the dinner, teacher Diana called.

"Hello Kanae."

Mom replied teacher with worried face.

"Hello Diana, how are you?" (Kanae)

"I'm fine now. My wounds are healing and the doctor said I need some rest. To be exact 3 days of rest. There will be no class on those days. Is Jake in there?" (Diana)

"That's good. I was worried about you. Thank god. Wait a bit I'll call him now." (Kanae)

I heard mom calling for me so I went to the living room.

"Jake. Teacher Diana called, she wants to speak with you." (Kanae)

"Okay." (Jake)

I picked the phone and greeted teacher Diana.

"Hello teacher this is Jake." (Jake)

"Hello Jake."

"So teacher is okay now. I'm glad." (Jake)

"Yes I'm okay. But I have to rest for 3 days so there's no class this coming days." (Diana)

"So teacher, what did you call me for?" (Jake)

"I just want to thank you. The police said that you fought and defeated the villain to protect us. Thank you." (Diana)

"You don't have to thank me teacher." (Jake)

"But Jake, please don't act recklessly. I know that you were forced to act by the circumstances but please refrain from doing so. You'll be putting yourself to danger and might lose you life." (Diana)

"I understand teacher." (Jake)

"That's good." (Diana)

"Teacher, I would be skipping grades soon." (Jake)

"What!! Why?" (Diana)

"Well I have to train more harder but school hinders my training that is why I'm gonna skip grades. And also my mom and dad approved so there's no problem." (Jake)

"..." (Diana)

"Teacher?" (Jake)

"Can you call Kanae for a bit?" (Diana)

I called mom and passed her the phone.

"Kanae!! What the hell is wrong with you.." (Diana)

I heard teacher's angry voice. I started to sweat, looking at my mom who's looking at me with a smile. But her eyes isn't smiling. I trembled in fear.

"Calm down Diana. Well you know all about what happened in the incident right?" (Kanae)

"Yes I know." (Diana)

"Jake wanted to become stronger and we agreed to support him." (Kanae)

"But Jake is still young. His childhood should be spent for making friends and know people." (Diana)

"I know. But after the incident, I have change my mind. Especially that he defeated a villain at a tender age. If known by the public, not only hero agencies would flock to recruit him but also villains to eliminate him. That's why we agreed on his idea. But don't misunderstand, I impose some conditions for him." (Kanae)

"..."

"Well enough about problematic talks." (Kanae)

"Okay I understand." (Diana)

"You should rest now." (Kanae)

"Okay. Bye." (Diana)

"Bye."

Mom said goodbye to teacher.
