Chapter 167: Eyy (1)

This morning, Eusha city was quiet enough for it to be considered "creepy".

Many of the buildings were damaged, many windows broken and walls crushed while fire and smoke rose from within them. Cars were destroyed on the blocked roads, creating a traffic jam that stretched for kilometres.

There was no buzzing of people, as there were no students going to school nor any office workers heading to their work. The city was calm and silent when the morning sun began to rise in the eastern sky.

-Boom! -Boom!

The creepy silence was broken by blasts of shockwaves coming from the sky and Neji grinned as he noticed many heads peeking out of their hiding spots, the civilians who were expecting a military air jet while the criminals prayed otherwise.

The sky was riddled with golden rings, dissipating slowly as people blinked, but that blinking time was enough for Neji to spot a few whose appearance screamed 'villains'.

Under the highway bridge, a bald fat man, whose body was almost double the size of normal humans, was peeking out of a school bus that was clearly dragged onto that spot from the bridge above.

Neji, noticing him, drove downwards at a shocking speed, his feet targeting the head of the man that was peeking out from the door.

Noticing Neji the man's complexion went pale as he immediately closed the door, hiding in.

-Crunch!

But Neji hadn't stopped and easily crashed the door, stepping inside to find the man crawling back as he stuttered.

"P-please spare me-" the villain stopped, his eyes locking onto Neji's face. "Wait, aren't you the kid from this year's 1st-year Sports Festival?! C-control yourself, brat! You almost killed me!"

The villain jumped up, grumbling as Neji used [Observe] on him.

[Name: Kanari Yakamuro

Age: 48

Tier: 4

Quirk: "Big Show"

Status: Extreme Anger, Slight Nervousness.]

[Big Show - LVL 6: This quirk allows the user to triple their body size, effectively gaining more strength and endurance.

-The Duration is 3 hours, and after using it for a whole 3h, there is a 3-hour cooldown.]

"Fuck off, kid!" The villain yelled, running through the middle of the bus as he swung his arm at Neji.

Neji blocked the incoming punch, the hand almost double the size of his, but he stopped it in its tracks effortlessly.

"A quirk that triples your height? Yet you're barely 10 feet? Tch, how short are you?" Neji said, watching as the villain's expression showed shock, before turning into horror as a red aura came out of Neji's hand and literally started to tug down on the villain's quirk.

"W-what the hell are you doing to me!? Let go!"

The man struggled to back off, but he couldn't take even a single step away as Neji used his gravity quirk to keep the man at bay.

He tried to use his other hand to punch Neji but that hand was blasted into pieces as Neji slapped it with his shockwave-coated hand.

"AAUGHH!" Yelled the villain, but he could do nothing but fall on his knees as his quirk was pulled out of his body, causing his eyes to go blank as his body shrunk into that of a 3-feet man and fell to the ground.

"Mhmm," Neji smiled, closing his eyes and using the information stored within the quirk to enlarge his body. 

Neji had a very low body-fat percentage, unlike the dude that he stole the quirk from. So, using the quirk, he felt new muscles practically erupt within his body, making his frame larger and larger. Neji stopped when he felt his clothes were about to get torn apart and then reversed the effect to go back to his original form. 

He tried to shrink his size next, but it didn't work.

"Guess that's the limit. But still, not bad." Neji was satisfied with this loot. He just needed a body hardening quirk and boom, he was his own (mini) "Gigantomachia".

He then looked down on the body of this unknown villain, who was unconscious and a quick [Observe] told him that the man was "Brain Dead".

"Hm, the second person I used ⟨Mine⟩ upon is braindead, and here I almost thought Mine's specialness would allow otherwise." As he spoke, he took out a Health Potion from within his inventory, pouring it inside the villain's mouth but- it had no effect.

The status effect, "Brain Dead", was still there.

[Master, Quirks have a part of the user's consciousness in them, and therefore taking quirks from someone oftentimes causes harm to their minds. As you know, the Health Potion doesn't heal mental injuries, or you would have been able to heal "Kimi" without much problem.] 

"Ah, tch, I forgot." Neji grumbled and shook his head.

Then, without wasting much time, he coated his fist in Tremor and slammed it down on the short man's head, effectively shattering it into a gruesome ball of blood.

[You have killed a Tier-4 enemy! You have received 3,000 exp!]

[You have levelled up!]

[You have reached level 151!]

Blasting a shockwave from his hand to clear the blood, Neji casually stepped out of the bus, shaking his head.

"I didn't even feel anything after brutally murdering a human, villain or not."

Not that he was complaining. Feeling bad or nauseous would have only caused meaningless problems and internal dilemmas.

"But holy shit, I am kinda overpowered now…" Neji rubbed his nose as he looked at the sky, smiling. "Hehe, anyway let's get moving."

It took him a while to find more villains and steal-kill them, but everything was going smoothly until now.

Now, he had accidentally killed his 10th villain before stealing his quirk.

"Ahh, oops." scratching his neck, Neji stood over the dead body of the villain he just killed, his head was burst like a watermelon.

He would have left to look for another villain, if not for the quirk this villain had.

[Jump-Up: This quirk allows the user to go from a 'still' state to 'top speed' in an instant.]

That might not sound much, but this would make any of Neji's attacks 100% more effective since he would be able to charge his physical attacks instantly. So, he needed this.

But before he wasted a Health Potion on the dead body, Neji decided to use his backup first.

Dragging the dead body to an alleyway on the side, Neji took out Izuku's body from within his inventory, dropping it beside the villain.

Izuku is dead, and he used a health potion to heal the damaged dead body. Meaning, if he could use ⟨Mine⟩ on Izuku, he would be able to use it on the villain too. But if he is unable to use it, then that'd mean he wouldn't have to waste a health potion on the villain.

Crouching down, Neji touched Izuku's chest and activated ⟨Mine⟩, waiting as the quirk swirled within Izuku's body and without any single moment of resistance, it-

[You have Mined the quirks- "Attraction-Repulsion", "Astral Manipulation" and "Bloodcurdle."]

It worked.

"Whew, great." Neji smiled, grinning to himself as he stored Izuku back in his inventory. He didn't like carrying dead bodies in his newly made "Pokeball", but he was paranoid to destroy Izuku's body on this earth. If it had to be done, he would do it inside the Tower, same with Nine.

First of all, he checked the quirks' descriptions.

===

(1)Bloodcurdle - LVL 7: Allows the user to paralyse his target upon tasting a sample of their blood. 

–The amount of time a victim remains paralyzed depends on their blood type; in ascending order from shortest to longest duration, they are: O, A, AB, and B. 

–The maximum amount of time that anyone can be paralyzed is eight minutes.

(2)Astral Form - LVL 6: Allows the user to project the consciousness of himself or others from their body.

–When used against others, the person will wake up by themselves once a certain amount of time passes (which varies on the person's mental power).

(3)Attraction-Repulsion - LVL 5: Allows the user to attract and repel anything below the weight of 10 TON.

===

These descriptions were great, but unfortunately, none were at max level, not even close. With this, along with the other 9 quirks he just hunted, he had 24 Quirks under ⟨Mine⟩, and 6 Quirks outside of it. 

The new nine quirks were as follows:

===

(1) Big Show - LVL 6: Allows the user to triple their body size, effectively gaining more strength and endurance.

-The Duration is 3 hours, and after using it for a whole 3h, there is a 3-hour cooldown.

(2) Camouflage - LVL 5: Allows the user to visually blend into the immediate environment.

(3) Helicopter - LVL 4: The user can spin parts of their bodies or objects they wield/carry like helicopter blades.

 –Can spin fast enough to achieve a degree of flight.

(4) Nail-King - Level 7: Allows complete control over the user's nails, allowing them to freely alter and manipulate them. 

–The user can manipulate the shape, growth, colouration, density, and sharpness of nails. 

–The user can even project nails as projectiles.

(5) Queen's Hair - Level 7: Allows the user to manipulate their hair like a limb, making the hair strands sharper, shorter or longer as they wish.

(6) Wall Crawling - Level 7: Allows the user to walk on walls and ceilings, no matter how rough or smooth they are. However, they do not defy gravity.

(7) Ash Generation - Level 6: Allows the user to generate Ash, the remains of fire.

–The user can generate three types of ash matter: solid-form, liquid-form, and gaseous-form ash.

(8) Sonic Scream - Level 6: Allows the user to emit a highly enhanced scream of a high amplitude.

(9) Aquatic Breathing - Level 3: Allows the user to breathe underwater.

===

Most of these were small quirks, but they were really useful. The most useful ones being "Big Show", "Wall Crawling", "Aquatic Breathing" and at last, "Queen's Hair" which makes his special silver hair deadlier than ever.

"Now it's time to combine a few of them."

Some of them were similar to some other of his quirks, so there was no need to keep them in a separate slot.

Neji quickly combined Ash Generation with Smoke Screen (that was previously stored within One for All), making the quirk level up from Level-7 to Level-9. 

Then, he combined Scanning, a quirk Nine previously had, with Eyes of the Lord. He wasn't going to do it before, but he decided to go on with it now. The quirk didn't level up, however.

At last, he chose Attraction-Repulsion to combine with Gravity Manipulation, making the latter quirk level up from Level-1 to Level-2.

Immediately he received the knowledge that the level ups gave him. The Smoke Screen one wasn't that interesting, he could just make solid and liquid smoke now, along with ashes. The interesting part was the latter ones.

Eyes of the Lord, despite not levelling up, could now see "Low, Middle, Peak" of any Tier now. Which was interesting. He could also tell what type of quirk a person has, "Emitter, Transformer, or Mutant" just by a glance, without using Observe.

Gravity Manipulation, on the other hand, now allowed him telekinesis, a form that was far, far stronger than the one that his earring provided. On top of the powers Izuku had, such as locking two objects to attract and repel each other, Neji also had the ability to increase or decrease the gravity of a small area now.

All of this he gained took only 3 hours of running around. 

'15 more years? Gods can fuck themselves.' Neji scoffed in his mind as he watched all of his quirks flash in front of his eyes briefly.

By that time he wouldn't even be in this world, and even if he couldn't somehow JP worlds, he was sure "Fusion" was strong enough to match the incoming God. After all, "Neko Neji" was also a God, a Cat God.

"Okay, one last quirk remaining for my quirks collection mission to complete." 

Said Neji, scratching his chin as he healed the villain's damaged body with a potion. He wouldn't steal the quirk of this villain yet, or the quest will be considered completed. He was yet to complete the bonus objective, after all.

So, he crouched down to touch and put the villain into his inventory- however, before he could touch the villain's body, a muscular chocolate leg came crashing on his neck.

"LUNA FALL!"

Yelled an enraged voice, making Neji grin as he looked up, sitting casually even as the leg crushed into his shoulders, creating a crater under him.

He put the villain into his inventory with a single touch as he kept looking up, the underside of Mirko's legs visible as the shocked hero raised her leg to attack again.

But- "Eyy, I have been looking for you!"

Neji jumped up, getting closer to hug her only to get kicked in the neck, making him fly and hit a wall. 

"Aww~" Neji rubbed his neck, getting up as he dusted off his shirt, while Mirko looked at him wearily. "That hurts, you know. Even though I don't look wounded."

"So it was true…" Mirko said, glaring at him. "You really are All for One. Neji didn't have this great of an endurance."

"Oh, he didn't, yes." Neji chuckled, cracking his neck. "I am indeed All for One, you're right. What're you gonna do then, girl?"

Neji smirked at her, quite playfully which made Rumi enraged. Neji didn't mind her misunderstanding, instead he was looking forward to teasing her.

"You goddamn bastard!" The hero kicked the ground, appearing above his head. "You're gonna die today!!"

Seeing her enraged expression, Neji indeed felt his heart warm up- until the thick and muscular leg came crashing on his ear and sent him flying metres away in the street.

Author's Note: The chapter felt longer than it is to me because I had to research, Google, and carefully choose which quirk to give Neji.
