Kapitel 41: Chapter 41: The True Flask Plan
"What, what did you just say?!" Zenkichi blinked his eyes, surprised to see Naze's usual look of indifference immediately change.
Even though he had seen her having a face of surprise and occasional...lustful looks, but he'd never seen her looking so distraught before.
"I said that a girl with short black hair, had some freckles on her face, wore a kevlar vest, had some knives and hidden guns on her, was hiding behind one of the arcade machines back on the 12th floor. I was asking if you know about her, and looking at your expression, I'd take that as a yes."
He wouldn't have noticed her himself if it wasn't for Yukuhashi-senpai's abnormal skill, Reading Minds.
'Looks like she wasn't just some psycho sis-con...' He could still feel the headache from reading that girl's mind and probably for the first time in his life, he felt disturbed about someone.
That girl was just not right in the head.
Naze clicked her tongue, biting onto her left thumb,
"This is the worst case scenario! I knew that some of those pricks in area X couldn't help but meddle in our affairs, but I didn't expect her of all people to appear. I thought that bitch died in Korea!"
Zenkichi narrowed his eyes.
'For Naze to act like this, looks like that girl isn't simple. Did she replace Oudo's place as the head of the 13th floor?'
"Naze. Calm down and explain. Who is she?"
Naze paused slightly, sighing, she explained,
"A dangerous enemy that's who. Remember those people in area X alongside White Ghost? She's one of them. Her name is Ikusaba Mukuro, although she's a highschooler like the rest of us, she's a highly trained soldier that has gone through at least a hundred battlefields and won them without a single scar on her body. Earning her the title, Ultimate Soldier."
Zenkichi was stunned, his eyes wide in shock.
He knew that name, that title and what it meant.
Danganronpa.
'If she's here...fuck! Things just got complicated.' He grimaced. 'I hope this is all a fucking coincidence or I'm going to–'
Kill someone. Something he'd never done nor would he want to.
"...Naze, what are the people in area and how many are they?" He asked with barely concealed apprehension.
Naze noticing his emotions, said, "At least 30 because they aren't under my jurisdiction. They're students that stand equal or above members of the Thirteen Party due to their unique skills and abilities that they've honed or were born with that goes beyond normal human capabilities."
"Putting it simply, they are normal humans that have trained in one field to the point of matching a person with a powerful abnormal skill. Though there are some who are just absurd like having godlike luck and lame like good moral compass." Naze's face twitched mentioning the last two. She still couldn't believe that those count as something incredible.
Luck? Pfft. Yeah, right. It didn't mean anything to an abnormal as they do everything truly amazing, except most couldn't control their powerful skills.
"The chairman gave them special titles and are generally called the Ultimate Students."
Zenkichi was stunned into silence for a moment before he grabbed Naze's shoulders and came close to her face,
"Shit! Things got more complicated than I first thought. Naze, do you know who Junko–" Zenkichi stopped as his eyes gleamed, waves of information suddenly flooded into his mind.
[True Flask Plan Download Completion: 100%]
.....
The Flask Plan was developed around one hundred years ago; Hakoniwa Academy was established for the purpose of the Flask Plan. The Flask Plan is a experiment to "capture genius into a bottle"; a drink that could turn ordinary people into Abnormals. As it's still experimental, they require help from born Abnormals to help the plan succeed. Once they develop the formula, they will test it on all the students in the academy, insuring many casualties in the process.
But somewhere along the way, someone uncovered the most classified secret of the Flask Plan: The Founder.
They found out that the founder of the project, as well as the school, was an immortal being that had been alive long before humans came to the picture.
In fear of such a being, and possibly even more of its kind, coming back into their lives once more to end their existence by unknown reasons, most of the researchers voted to "expand" the experiment.
The Shiranui clan tried to stop their actions as they were the most loyal to the founder of the Flask Plan, unfortunately however, some of the researchers came from very powerful families and clans that came to pressure the Shiranui clan to submission.
The true head of the project was then split into three people; the Shiranui clan, **** clan and **** clan.
And since then, the two heads other than the Shiranui finalized the new revised project.
The new Flask Plan is to create a God, or an existence similar to one, with the sole purpose of protecting humanity from unhuman threats.
And the project name of the test subject/s was...
Ultimate Hope
....
'W-What...? They're planning to what?!'
"...Zenkichi? Hey! You alright?" Naze, holding Zenkichi in her arms, felt surprised at his sudden collapse.
"...God..." Zenkichi started muttering, looking absentmindedly from the sudden flood of information in his head, and he slowly got back onto his feet.
"What?"
"Naze, you were all planning to create a God to fight another God?" He asked with a grimace.
He seen too many movies to know how that shit usually goes down.
Spoiler alert, not good.
And considering they were in an anime world, the chance of it happening was high.
"...What?" Naze was confused, "Zenkichi, what are you talking about? A God? That's–"
Before they could discuss anything further, a small 'something' was rolling down towards them.
In such a quiet stairway, both Zenkichi and Naze immediately noticed it and looked to see what it was and immediately, their faces changed.
It was a hand grenade.
"Run!"
Right as the grenade was about to explode, Zenkichi kicked it back up and, grabbing Naze by her waist with his left arm, he immediately jumped down the flight of stairs.
*Bang!*
The explosion was deafening, shattering the concrete walls and stairs they were in, but luckily Zenkichi and Naze were far enough away from the blast to avoid any serious harm.
They quickly got up, their hearts racing from the close call.
Zenkichi looked around for any signs of their attacker but found nothing. "Who the hell did that?" He muttered, his grip on Naze's arm tightening.
Naze's eye lowered down into a frown, "I've got a couple of guesses but the most likely one is Ikusaba Mukuro, the Ultimate Soldier."
"...She doesn't have any qualms about killing people, huh." Zenkichi muttered as he let go of Naze.
Naze stared at him, with her blank red eye.
"You don't get to win a war without blood staining your hands, Zenkichi. And she's been through at least a hundred of them," Her face turned solemn. "And between you and her, odds are even."
Zenkichi narrowed his eyes, feeling a bit frustrated, "And what makes you say that? Is it because I haven't killed anyone yet?"
"Yes." Naze replied straightforwardly, staring straight at Zenkichi's eyes.
"Naze..."
"Zenkichi. That girl is the Ultimate Soldier, do you know what a soldier means? Usually it means someone who follows their commander's orders but this ain't it, she is deadly, ruthless, and willing to do whatever it takes to accomplish her mission. And if that means killing anyone who stands in her way, then she will do it without hesitation."
"Her physical capabilities are superb as well, and top it off with master level mastery of numerous unarmed combat? She could probably put up a fight against you and with just the slightest chance she can get, she wouldn't hesitate to cut your throat and other parts of your body."
There was a brief moment of silence.
"...I was already prepared for that to happen, Naze. In fact, I expected a lot worse." Zenkichi turned around, continuing to head down towards the 13th floor lab.
The moment he was hunted down by Takachiho, he was already prepared to imagine a literal SWAT team to come after him or a gang to rain fire on him. Or a group of shadowy ninjas to come slice his throat as he sleeps.
Which is why he slept under the bed now and set some traps in his bedroom.
But anyways, he came prepared to take down this project and come back alive.
Even if it means he had to kill someone.
His eyes started to glow red.
"So I can't turn back now, especially since the stakes just got higher."
'Medaka, Shiranui, Nabeshima-senpai, everyone. Just wait a little longer, everything will be over soon.'
"Tell me about the Ultimate Students, especially someone called, Junko Enoshima."
...
Wassup everyone! And I'm sorry for the late updates, as I've previously stated, I got a bit busy with celebrating my grandad's birthday. I actually even thought that today was Wednesday 😅
As always, thanks for reading my story and stay tuned for further chapters.
