章 8: Weakness
---------------------------------
_____________________
[Three days later]
..
It's been three days till then. These days I hunted the remaining monsters of that area and gained quite a lot of exp due to the increase in the number of wolf disaster level monsters…
After the hunt, I came home and found that I was promoted to rank seven in class-B due to me clearing those monsters of that area.
.
While I was reading the news, I found that the A-class hero BLAST defeated a demon disaster level monster in the city B…
Just looking at the video of his fight, I came to the conclusion that if I were to fight him in place of that monster, I would have been easily crushed like a bug…
'I wonder when I would be him and he the bug..'
But surely I can't underestimate him even if I would become like that in the future. People of this world hold abilities such as psychokinesis, clairvoyance, and a lot of other dangerous ones.
And he especially holds the dimension traveling ability which is very versatile and dangerous if used correctly…
.
I already knew that the one-punch-man world doesn't only revolves around strength but also in abilities...
If the abilities of different people of this world are used to their full potential, not individually but combined, it could even outpower the power of Saitama if only a powerful foe of god-level threat wields the abilities...
After all the real reason Saitama got that much power in such a short period of time and Garou getting stronger and stronger by each fight was due to Accelerated Growth Rate and Indomitable Will...
I do not believe in the theory of broken limiter, I think Saitama is just too powerful...
And he himself said that...

…
I was currently walking toward the top of a certain hill, after some time of walking, I arrived in front of a big Japanese-style dojo…
This is Class-A hero- Bang's dojo where he teaches water stream rock smashing fist…
.
I came here to learn the technique as it is gonna be very beneficial in increasing my strength and also to gain a great amount of exp not only through training but also through defeating disciples ...
.
I entered the dojo and could immediately see the people practicing the water stream rock smashing fist…
My gaze went toward Bang who was there teaching some movement ago and now was gazing towards me…
He slowly got near me and asked:
"Young man, do I know what your purpose is in coming here to my dojo??"
"Class-A hero, Bang, I am class-B hero, Alan. I request you to let me join your dojo and learn martial arts from you to become stronger."
I requested with "respect", I was direct and did not care about having a long conversation…
He gave a smile and nodded at my words…
"Oh, so you are a fellow hero…"
Without thinking for much, Bang spoke:
"Though you are already a B-class, I will only accept you in my dojo before you pass a small test."
I nodded as he continued.
"Go toward that room, change your clothes and read the rules of the dojo properly before coming to the main hall for the test." He said pointing towards the nearby room…
After that, I went towards the room, changed my clothes, and memorized the rules of the dojo and the test...
.
Later I got out of the dojo with proper clothes and headed towards the main hall...
Entering the dojo, I was gazed upon by all the people training there…
Giving all the formalities, I stood in front of Bang as he spoke:
"Alright, Sasuke, come and have a spar with Alan..."
.
The test was fairly easy, I was told to fight with an arrogant guy who looked like Sasuke from Naruto with the same name…
Though his name was Sasuke, he was as weak as his wife from another universe...
Just as strong as she was at the beginning of the Naruto series…
.
Though my opponent was pretty weak, I found something unusual, the spar was hard for me… Not because I lacked strength but the skill..., skill for defeating someone without killing them…
.
I have been killing monsters a lot of times and while fighting monsters I do not control my strength due to the fact that I simply do not know how to, just like Saitama...
So, due to that, the fight was quite difficult to win as I did not want to kill a student of Bang at his own dojo. That is just asking for death while trying to act tough though you are the weakest and the strongest is the one you are provoking…
At last, I had to perform a martial technique I learned from the internet to stop him and inflict some pain to make him surrender…
Though if not for my adaptability then I would have given him a serious injury. For that, thanks, Talent...
.
All my actions and lack of control, skill did not go unnoticed by Bang. As a skilled dojo teacher and a powerful future S-rank, it was too low for it to go through Bang unnoticed…
_____________
[Bang POV]
....
I have been observing the young man during the whole fight...
He is basically inexperienced in human combat due to fighting only monsters and not engaging in human combat…
I simply found this by the way he attacked Sasuke. He seems to only know how to kill and not knock out his foe. He also lacks control over his power and proper skill…
'Though he had a lot of problems with his fighting style, I noticed something that made me want to immediately make him my student and train him to his limits…' I thought as a chuckle formed on my lips.
'This kid's adaptability is as good as Garou's… At this rate, I would have my dojo filled with powerhouses in the future.' Thinking that a big smile covered his face...
{Pitiful old man...}
[A/N: Gaour still has not unlocked his Accelerated Growth Rate ability...]
_____________
[Alan's POV]
…
Well, it's been a day since I have officially become a student in Bang's dojo. Today I came to the dojo at 6 am as that was the usual routine.
Firstly, I requested Bang to train me for 15 hours each day. After listening to that request he seemed to be happy and accepted it.
.
I needed to do intense training to reach class-S rank as soon as possible to start my plans as I cannot delay it till the cannon starts or it will all be too late…
From that day onward Bang taught me many things about hand-to-hand combat and even let me spar with him once a day…
He did not teach me Rock Smashing Fist because even though I was powerful, I lacked control over my power and was poor at skill combat.
.
During my free time in the dojo, I challenged the students there to gain exp and improve my skills…
Though that was my main goal for fighting them, I also wanted to implement some fear into them. After all, arrogance is in humans' nature. If I let it roam around me freely, it will just bring me trouble…
I also met with Garou, he did not have the same personality as canon but could say he was starting to grow that kind of personality…
.
After all, developing a different kind of personality takes time as I also went through that process in my last life...
At our first meeting, just as I had expected, he wanted to fight with me but I refused and started to put a lot of distance between us and rarely met him...
It was not because I was scared of him, it was the change I was scared of…
I didn't want him to change his personality which could eventually change the cannon, ruining some of my plans and worse, decrease his future selves value just because of my interference…
'I cannot risk his personality being changed, his future talent and abilities are too beneficial to be neglected upon.', I thought with a tone of seriousness.
.
From my observation, I found that his current talent was the same as mine but I knew his future talent would be massive due to him unlocking Accelerated Growth Rate...
