Systematic Shinobi: Multiverse Mayhem - Chapter 25.1 (Patreon)

Daiki half expected the heroes to falter as he casually stared down at them from atop Mount Lady's great big mountainous backside.

"Don't falter!"

Perhaps he wasn't giving them enough credit though as they didn't even hesitate to spread around and surround him, two large muscular men with six arms apiece took aim at him with literal gatling guns and unleashed a mass spray of bullets straight for his upper torso, perfectly aimed so that they wouldn't touch Mount Lady.

For all the good it did.

The mass of bullets impacted against him one after the other, but beyond the fact that they just lacked the speed and power to penetrate his skin-

They flattened against his aura and never even got the chance to touch him physically.

And while they did so, his eyes were idly glancing around, taking in a few specific people.

Like the guy who'd been tossing lances of ice his way. If the standard elements like fire in quirks and such worked like a bloodline when he took them and they were evolved through his chakra, then perhaps if he took an ice quirk would he gain an ice style bloodline?

And of course he was picking out the Wild Wild Pussycats.

He had a deal to uphold with them after all.

"Physical attacks aren't doing a thing!" a shout drew his attention to a muscular bare chested man with a dark blue bandana over his head, the hero Snatch if Midoriya's memories were anything to go away, "I'll trap him!"

As he said that, the hero thrust both of his arms out, his flesh fading into mass amounts of sand and twin waves of sand launched towards him, forming into thick whips that wrapped around him-

And went straight through him as his body became fire.

Sandstorm was that guys quirk, which allowed him to turn his body into sand, the same way he could with fire that he'd learned from Atlas Flame.

The guy was basically the Sandman of this world.

Daiki moved.

In the blink of an eye he was in front of Snatch and touched a finger to his forehead. The man didn't even time to register he was in front of him, never mind shift into his sand form to evade, before his eyes rolled up into the back of his head and he fell unconscious.

Overhaul was just so useful for dealing with people, especially weaklings. Just a touch and he could render them unconscious, no needing to hit any nerves or anything to put them out.

Before Snatch even hit the ground, he had moved again and was in front of the guy who had the Ice Quirk and just like Snatch before him, a touch with his finger and Overhaul was all it took to knock him out and steal a shard of his quirk for himself.

He turned sideways a split moment later, just in time for two launching themselves at them to punch straight by him on either side.

Gang Orca and Shishido the Lion Hero.

They were both quite fast and strong for the people of this world.

He touched a finger to both of their necks, and they fell to the ground unconscious.

And took shards of their quirks.

Not that he planned on using them, but may as well.

"Hoh?" Daiki looked up as darkness began to encircle around him, enshrouding him in an inky pitch black void.

"Ragnarok Womb!"

Well now, wasn't this a surprise?

He knew that voice.

From Midoriya's memories.

Tokoyami Fumikage.

What the heck was he doing here? Did Hawks bring him?

"Well, it's a pleasant surprise I admit." Daiki chuckled to himself, after all his quirk Dark Shadow was very interesting and Daiki had a plan for it.

And as he spoke, he reached over his shoulder and caught a thin string moving blindingly fast towards the back of his neck and caught it between two of his fingers, "Nice try." Daiki snorted as he brought it around to eye level.

The string vibrated in his grasp, before elongating into a human head, that of the Pro Hero Edgeshot, "How did you-!?"

That was as far as he got before Daiki rendered him unconscious and took a shard of his quirk as well.

"Cuz I'm a real ninja." he snorted as the mans string like body formed back into his natural human form and he dropped him to the ground.

Now then, it was about time to stop playing around he supposed.

He lifted his palm up towards the sky and unleashed a massive gout of draconic hellfire.

Dark Shadow shrieked and recoiled away from him from the sheer amount of flame he unleashed, shrinking away from the light of the flame.

And as soon as it did, Daiki once again moved.

He located the bird headed classmate of Midoriya and was in front of him before Dark Shadow even fully retreated back towards him.

And a touch to his bird face had the boy's eyes rolling up into the back of his head as he took a shard of Dark Shadow for himself.

"Now then." Daiki raised a finger to the sky.

And the sky rumbled ominously as he activated the single most powerful of the quirks he'd gotten his hands on.

In the blink of an eye a gargantuan rumbling storm cloud formed above the island he was atop. Massive crackling bolts of black lightning surging throughout it.

He picked out everyone on the island with Search.

And then he clicked his fingers.

Hundreds of bolts of black lightning descended from the heavens and struck their targets, drowning out everything in the roar of thunder.

And it was over.

In just mere seconds, be they hero, police officer or robot they lay defeated spread all around him.

Not a single person here was capable of evading his attack, and they were all dealt with.

Well, almost all of them.

There were a scant few he'd left out of it.

Only four though.

The Wild Wild Pussycats, sand Ragdoll who were huddled together and stared at the destruction he wrought with horror in their eyes.

And-

"Daiki!"

A thunderous shout echoed as the legendary Hero and Symbol of Peace Daiki shot towards him.

His behemothic frame of muscle stretching his suit to the limits as he launched himself towards Daiki at speeds easily twice that of a bullet.

Well now, hadn't he picked up the usage of his abilities quite quickly?

Only a few minutes had passed after all.

All Might's fist struck at him like a falling meteor.

And the island itself shook from the impact as Daiki caught the blow upon his palm.

"That was pretty quick." Daiki grinned at the man as he stared up at him, a crater would have no doubt formed under his feet from the force of the blow if he hadn't rebuffed the force behind it.

He thrust his hand lightly and forced All Might back through the air, where the man landed on his feet twenty feet away.

"Daiki…" All Might rumbled, looking around them, and at all the fallen heroes, "As grateful as I am…I simply cannot allow this to continue."

The elation in the faces of the Wild Wild Pussycats at seeing All Might back in action was plain to see, and Pixie Bob full on cheered happily.

"Oh please," Daiki rolled his eyes, "It's not like any of them are dead, I made sure to keep the power of each bolt of lightning at just enough to knock their targets unconscious."

Such minute control would have been far beyond him before today mind you. Then again, he only got these powers today as well.

So, eh.

"…You calibrated the power of each individual bolt of lightning…?" All Might stared at him gobsmacked, "Such incredible talent, if only you would use your power for good, you would be the greatest hero to ever exist."

Such was the power of Search, Shadow Clones and the Shinku-Sharingan.

"No thanks," Daiki shrugged, "My justice is my own All Might. Hero or villain? None of that matters to me. Now, stop me if you can hero."

"I will," All Might closed his eyes and gave a deep sigh, before opening them once more, his bright blue eyes sharp and serious, "I will not allow you to just do as you please Daiki, and I will not allow you to take All For One."

"Bit too late for that," Daiki smirked, crossing his arms, "I did that thirty five minutes ago."

All Might blinked, "You….what?" he gaped at him.

"I mean, did you think I would tell you all about my plans and what I wanted to do, if there was actually a chance you could stop me?" Daiki guffawed, amused, "I've already taken that quirk and killed All For One, though as it turns out it's only a copy of the quirk. Your great big villain has some doctor that can clone quirks. His big plan seemed to be giving his real quirk to someone else and then stealing their body, unlucky for him that won't ever happen now I'm sure."

Probably.

Either way, it wasn't really his problem.

He'd be coming back here every now and then either way, especially considering Mirko was pregnant with his kid, and he wanted to see Nejire more. So if the clown actually did manage to steal someone else's body and revive himself, Daiki would just kill him again.

"…That cockroach," All Might gnashed his teeth, before shaking his head, "I thank you for the information, but for now, prepare yourself Daiki!"

With a shout, the man bound towards him, pushing off with a powerful leap and rocketed towards him.

And then mid-way towards him-

His speed abruptly doubled.

Overclock, huh?

He expected All Might to rush him-

He didn't expect the man to leap once more, this time straight up, and then the air rippled as he kicked off of it from above him and came at him from directly above and unleashed a monstrous punch from above.

A massive pressure of air was unleashed from his fist, both from the force of the blow-

And added to by a quirk.

The attack impacted the ground and shook the island, but didn't touch Daiki as he shifted into flame form and phased right through it, getting above All Might in the blink of an eye and forming back into his physical body, delivering an elbow to the mans back that slammed him into the ground like a bullet and left him laying in a crater.

Despite though, he'd done no damage.

As could be seen due to the shimmering gold wall wrapped around the mans body.

Daiki landed on the edge of it and peered down at the man with a grin, "One For All to amplify Brawl Booster, Overclock to speed up, into Air Walk, into Air Cannon alongside that punch and then Air Wall to protect yourself from my hit, you must have clenched your ass real hard huh?"

He'd just gotten those quirks but already he could use them easily. He supposed what Midoriya heard from that old guy Gran Torino about All Might being able to use One For All straight away wasn't just bullshit.

All Might was simply a stupidly talented guy.

A prodigy in other words.

Made sense he supposed.

The difference between this guy and his apprentice, was like night and day. It was like comparing Itachi Uchiha and that one rain scrub who acted like he was a big shot back during the Chunin Exams.

What was his name again?

Either way, the difference in talent was as vast as the distance between where he stood right now and the sun.

No wonder Endeavour had never been able to surpass this guy.Not only did he simply have a much more powerful quirk, he also had the talent and grit to take it to heights unimaginable for the average person around here.

Poor fucker.
