Chapitre 21: Chapter 21
Chapter 21
3rd POV
This time, it was Nobita looking down at Buddha mockingly.
"How is it, Buddha? Was it fun?" Nobita mocks with a playful grin with his arms crossed.
"What kind of magic is this?"
Buddha starts panicking now. He tries his best to break out of his invisible shackles, he could not even use his divine powers to lift himself up.
He knows that the energy inside that child is not powerful enough to even scratch him, but he somehow says something and Buddha can't even defy it?
He was really dumbfounded.
Why is this?
When it happened, he didn't even notice it! He can be sure that no spells were applied to him.
When he reached Buddhahood, even the Jade Emperor could do nothing to him, but this child…
In front of him, Nobita was still smiling, innocently.
However, in the eyes of the Buddha at this moment, Nobita appears to be the most evil demon in the universe.
"Hah! Not so great now, are you, Buddha?"
Sun Wukong on the side, seeing Nobita so easily subdued the Buddha, also looks overjoyed!
Even though he was in awe at Nobita's display of power, he did not stay idle. He held his staff tightly and slammed it towards the Buddha's forehead.
Boooom....
Dust flew everywhere as he hit his target, creating a massive crater hundreds of meters wide. The sound of metal clashing echoed sharply through the air!
"Why is your forehead so hard??" Wukong became surprised seeing the result, he couldn't even hurt a helpless Buddha.
Even though he didn't use his full strength, his strike should easily be able to smash multiple mountains to pieces, but Buddha…
He didn't even move!
Buddha still kneeled in front of Nobita, gritting his teeth at this disrespect.
Nobita looked thoughtful at the moment.
'Since the Lying Beak is a children's toy, its safety measures must be extremely high; otherwise, children in the future could permanently alter realities in the midst of a tantrum. When I controlled the Buddha with the gadget, it also applied safety features to him, ensuring that he remains relatively safe while in his controlled state.'
Nobita just became even more impressed by the future inventor's ability to create these loopholes. Even children's gadgets in the future are created with such measures.
While Nobita was lost in his thoughts, Buddha was scared, his heart trembled due to his close call with his death. He is the Buddha, damnit. He shouldn't be treated like this.
He almost had a heart attack when Sun Wukong swung his staff at his forehead. He could not use any of his powers to defend against that.
His body is not invulnerable, its his divinity that he gained during his enlightenment that makes him invincible in this Universe.
His body could not have survived that hit without dying.
When he remained unscathed despite being hit by Wukong's staff, he was greatly surprised!
"What??!" He says in shock.
The way he looked at Nobita was different after this moment.
His face displayed a range of expressions at that moment—complicated, fearful, awed, resentful, and ashamed.
"You...why did you protect me?"
"Oh, that was an accident, I forgot to turn off the safety mode, I'm sorry, I didn't mean to protect you."
Nobita looked ashamed admitting this.
Protection mode in Lying Beak should be enabled by default. He doesn't know if there's a military version of the gadget.
'Can Doraemon buy one if it exists?' Nobita wonders.
After all, this is one of the most useful gadgets he has ever used.
Buddha, "..."
"Why is he protected, friend?? I could have killed him just now."
Sun Wukong grumbles from the side.
When Buddha heard Wukong really wants to kill him, he panicked and blurted out.
"No! You can't kill me! This world is just one of a thousand, and I am merely an incarnation of my true self. If you kill me now, my true self will sense it and inevitably come to this world to investigate. If that happens, this world will cease to exist!"
When Buddha begged for mercy, Nobita started getting!
"Are you threatening us? Don't you Buddhists preach non-violence? Yet you gave Wukong a punishment worse than death itself. You were also about to kill me a moment ago if I didn't accept your conditions. But we can't kill you? What makes you so special?"
The all-powerful Buddha from the Journey to the West world threatening them with the destruction of this world? He's a disgrace to the true Buddha!
Buddha shook his head quickly and explained.
"I don't know everything, but if I die now, my true self will undoubtedly come here to investigate. He is beyond anything this world can withstand. If he arrives, his mere presence could destroy this world... and I'm not threatening you, I'm just stating the truth."
Sun Wukong was silent hearing this.
'If the world is destroyed… can I survive it? Will the descendants of his friends survive it?' He knows everyone will die if that happens, including him.
And about different worlds? He already knows about their existence because of the chat group.
If Buddha really has a very powerful True Body in some other world…
Seeing Wukong's troubled face, Nobita smiled.
"Buddha… Wukong may have killed you if he had the chance, but you have to understand something… there are many things worse than simple death."
He turns towards Wukong and reassures him, "Don't worry, his true body will not come to this world."
Nobita again looks at Buddha and say, "The Buddha before me will serve Sun Wukong for as long as Wukong desires, without defying any command Wukong gives him from this moment."
Sun Wukong looks excited hearing that and gives Buddha a chilling smile.
"Let's get along… My servant. Hahaha!!!" He jumps around happily like a child.
On the side, Buddha now respectfully next to Wukong, like a well-behaved butler.
While internally, he struggles desperately to break out of this control, but to no avail.
He couldn't control his body at all, as if he were trapped inside a puppet, powerless to move it.
Even if his thinking is very clear, he can only watch his body do things that he doesn't want to do at all.
This feeling made him terrified!
In the depths of his eyes, Nobita's shadow loomed like a terrifying creature, poised to crush him underfoot as if he were no more than an insect.
With that Nobita returned back to his world.
{Monkey King's pending order task: Get Monkey King out of his imprisonment.}
{Points earned: 98,000, E-level permission bonus: 20%}
{Extra Points: 19600}
{Total points earned: 117600}
117,600 points!
When he saw the astronomical points in the chat group. Nobita couldn't help but jump around joyfully.
"Spend 100,000 points to holistically strengthen me."
Nobita quickly said without hesitation.
The thrill, a hundred times more exhilarating than the previous strengthening, nearly swept him away like an overwhelming tidal wave.
Endless power washed over Nobita's body.
After his strengthening, Nobita felt it.
He could see more clearly than ever before. After his previous strengthening, his perception of the world had been sharp, more lucid than any human being had the right to possess. But now, his senses were rapidly expanding.
1 meter… 10 meters… 100 meters… 1,000 meters…
It didn't stop until his awareness stretched across nearly 10,000 meters.
He could see everything within the reach of his awareness, almost like a god observing the entire world at once, though in a much lower state. He could see different insects flying through the air, every tremor of their wings, and even the faint breeze created by their fluttering.
He could sense the joy of every worm in the ground, the movement of snails crawling, the towering presence of high-rise buildings, the lives of humans, the electric currents surging through every wire, and the flow of blood and oxygen in every living being within his awareness.
He would not be able to describe the emotions he was feeling right now.
He seems to have become a high-power scanning instrument that can scan all subtleties. And all these information poured into his brain at an unimaginable speed.
This immense amount of information, which even a supercomputer might struggle to process, he could handle with ease.
Not only that, but the magical energy inside him, which once required spells to be harnessed, was now useless, as he could do almost anything simply by willing it.
"So, I don't require spells now, huh? Cool!"
With a thought, Nobita floated in the air.
Whoshhh…
Nobita shot into the sky through the window like an arrow being released from a compound bow. Breaking the sound barrier multiple times like a certain man of steel.
Multiple loud booms echoed across Tokyo as Nobita accelerated through the air.
Mach 1!
Mach 10!
Mach 50!
Nobita even felt he could reach near mach 1,000 if he gives his all.
"Woooohooooo!!!"
"This is awesome!" Nobita shouts freely in the sky, flying in circles, moon walking on clouds, scaring the birds. He felt free!
His previous strengthening could not even come close to this one.
"Oh, great! Now I'm become Clark, the savior of Earth? Haha!!"
He laughs at lame his joke.
At an altitude of over 10,000 meters in the sky.
Nobita looked at the ground below him. He looked at everything in his view differently.
"Flying on my own without a gadget? Yeah, I could get used to this," he thinks with a smile.
This is completely his own strength, which makes Nobita like it even more.
In addition to strengthening in all aspects, he found that his control over himself had also become extremely amazing.
He had almost become a reality-warping entity with his new powers.
Nobita closed his eyes and tries something.
He began to grow at a speed visible to the naked eye. Arms, legs, and clothing soon stretched out.
His clothes tore apart as his size increased.
"I can control everything about myself!"
He could now manipulate his body in almost any way he desired. He can even control the hairs on his body, the growth and division of every cell.
Soon, an adult Nobita in his 20s appeared in the sky.
He observed his body and found that his height was around 176.9 cm, or 5 ft. 10 in. He decided to adjust it to exactly 6 ft.
"Hmmm… that's more like it!" He says.
Using 100,000 points to strengthen was worth it!' He thinks happily.
However, he felt a bit embarrassed when he noticed his body clad in the tattered clothes of a child, with his "Excalibur" bulging noticeably in his nearly torn pants.
He quickly returns to his child form and fixes his cloths with magic and returns home instead of going back to his classroom.
When he returns home before school is over, Doraemon sees him and asks, "Huh? Nobita, shouldn't you be in school? Why are you back home already?" He pauses his eating of dorayaki.
"Hey, something happened at school. My abilities skyrocketed by hundreds of times today."
"...What kind of ability are you talking about?"
Doraemon asked curiously.
"My magic, of course!"
While speaking, Nobita glanced at his point balance.
Current points: 17731
[E/N: I could be wrong, if you remember the exact number, please correct me. 17600+…]
He has more 10,000 points now.
"Exchange two thousand points worth of world coins." He says to the system.
clink, clink, clink…
2000 world coins materialized in front of them.
"That should be about 2000 coins." Nobita says casually.
Doraemon's eyes seemed to light up with money symbols in them.
($﹏$)
"So much money!"
Before, when Nobita made 400 world coins, it was already a huge sum of money for Doraemon!
After all, he had never seen so much money at once. But now?
"Doraemon! This is for you!"
Nobita said, and gave the coins to Doraemon.
"These are all for me?"
Doraemon was holding a pile of coins with tears of joy flowing from his eyes.
Because of his small hands they most of them slipped from his grip. He hurriedly puts them all in his pocket as if someone will come to steal them from him.
"Yeah~ Doraemon, let's go shopping!"
After his trip to Wukong's world, he really wants some gadgets which are above civilian grade.
Doraemon's civilian gadgets, although very useful, have too many restrictions on their use.
He also wants to see just how advanced are the military grade weapons in future are, if simple civilian gadgets can affect reality.
"No problem! We've got the budget for some big purchases."
Doraemon is also excited to upgrade his gadget arsenal.
Because he was too poor in the past, he couldn't buy many gadgets which were out of his budget.
"Future Department Store Phone!"
Doraemon took out a special phone.
"We can order the products we need directly using this phone. The goods will be delivered to us anywhere, anytime."
'Oh! Online delivery?' Nobita thinks, but quickly denies this way of shopping.
"No, no, that's not what I meant. Let's go straight to the future! We can browse through all the gadgets ourselves, and I'm really interested in visiting the stores there too."
Department store of the future? Don't they only sell civilian goods?
What Nobita wants most is military supplies!
"But you need to go back to school now. If Mom finds out you skipped your classes, she'll punish both of us. I'll get in trouble too for covering for you."
Nobita said, "...Doraemon, haven't I already skipped class? I must have missed half the class by now."
"Ah! Nobita! That's right! You can't skip class! You should return back to school, so hurry up and go back to class! It'll not be too late to wait until evening!"
Doraemon hurriedly pushed Nobita, wanting him to hurry and return to his school before he gets into too much trouble.
