Chapter 86: A Memory, A Murderous Intent
Rei, seeing them happy, approached them with a gentle smile and said:
—Well, it's good to see that you didn't let your objectives get in the way of what's truly important to you. Now my grandchildren will be able to grow up in a happy family.
Rumi said jokingly, her ears twitching with amusement:
—Yes, a whole bunch of children born with All Might's strength. That's going to be one chaotic nursery.
Ryuko said with a serious face, her golden eyes narrowing thoughtfully:
—Yes, that's why we have to be careful, even if they are going to live on Jupiter. Because if the family decides to stay on Earth, we will still bring them to visit their grandmother and uncles from time to time. So they will need to be taught so that when they come down to Earth, they don't accidentally kill anyone while playing.
Aoi looked at them all and said calmly:
—Well, I think you are understanding the situation a little wrong. They won't be born with all that power. — Let me explain how the bodies of these children will work, because it has nothing to do with what you know. A common baby is born fragile, but our children are already born with the "hardware" updated. My DNA was rewritten to be dense, so their cells already come programmed to build titanium bones and steel muscles from the womb.
—It's like a tiger. A tiger cub doesn't need to train to be strong; its DNA already guarantees that, as it grows, it will have the strength of an elite predator. My children are like that. The simple fact of growing and maturing biologically already guarantees them 50% of All Might's strength. It's their factory setting. While an ordinary person trains their whole life to try to reach 1%, they reach 50% just by existing.
—Regarding the mother's quirk, they have a great chance of inheriting it because biology always seeks optimization. My DNA provides the "armored body" and indestructible structure, while the mother's DNA provides the special ability. The baby's body won't discard the mother's power; it will integrate it into a physical base that can handle it. That's why they are superior: they have the mother's tool, but installed in a body that supports 250 thousand tons without breaking.
—And here is the difference: if they already start at level 50 "for free", what happens if they decide to train? Since their biology recovers tissues much faster than a human's — even without my regeneration quirk —, they can push the body with absurd loads. A genius who is already born with this base and decides to make an effort has a clear path to reach 80%, 90% or even 100% of All Might's peak. So even if they don't have my limit — which is still unknown —, they have the limit of being able to reach 100% of All Might if they make an effort. It's like a gorilla that already has ten times the strength of a man: if it had intelligence to train, good balanced nutrition, it would definitely become stronger because the base is already there. The only sad thing is that, since it's not a genetic change like mine, even if they reach 100% and pass it on to their children, my grandchildren will only have a guarantee of 50%. How close they get to the 100% limit will depend on them and their own effort.
Nemuri said in shock, her eyes wide:
—So you're telling me that our children will have all this potential?
Aoi looked at them and said:
—Why do you think I consider myself a new race? Because we stopped being human a long time ago, from the first moment I broke the human limit and managed to lift 1 ton without using a quirk. So that's why the planet has to be the way I said. Otherwise, they will destroy everything.
Rei, hearing this, asked curiously, tilting her head slightly:
—But my son, I know this planet was designed for you and my grandchildren, but how are Rumi, Ryuko and Nemuri going to live on this planet with their normal human bodies? After all, even though they are very strong heroines, that doesn't change the fact that they are ordinary people on the inside.
Aoi looked at them and said:
—Listen, so you can live on Jupiter without gravity and pressure becoming an unbearable burden, I'm going to create a serum using my blood as a base. It will contain 10% of my biological density. It's the exact adjustment so that your bodies stop being fragile like those of ordinary humans. Here's what it will change internally:
Bone and Muscle Structure: The serum will increase the molecular density of your bones and tissues. On Jupiter, gravity is 2.4 times greater than Earth's; with this 10% reinforcement, your bones won't break and your muscles won't fatigue. You'll move there with the same ease you move here.
Skin Resistance: Your skin will gain passive protection. It won't change your appearance, but it will be dense enough to withstand extreme atmospheric pressure and Jupiter's winds. This also ensures that common Earth weapons can no longer pierce you.
Internal Systems: Your heart and lungs will be optimized. The heart will pump blood with the pressure needed for the new atmosphere, and the lungs will process the dense air automatically. You won't need conscious effort to breathe or keep circulation going.
Nutritional Processing: The foods Morgana designed are extremely dense. This serum adjusts your digestive system to process this bioenergy efficiently. You'll extract much more power from each meal, which is essential to keep the body stable in that environment.
With 10% of my biology, you stop being vulnerable and gain the resistance needed to live in the new world. I continue with brute strength, but you gain the structure to never again be hurt by human fragility.
Aoi said, looking at Nemuri, Rumi and Ryuko:
—The only reason I'm not in a hurry to create this is because you are pregnant now, and injecting a serum like this could have consequences for the babies that are growing. So I'm going to wait until they are born to be able to inject the serum in you without any risk.
Rumi smiled and said:
—So does that mean this serum will make me stronger?
Aoi said:
—Well, I didn't think of it focused on increasing your power, but yes, it will make you stronger. But what you will really feel is the difference And Nemuri, since she only has a power that doesn't increase her strength, said smiling:
Nemuri: Well, then thank you very much for the special attention.
Ryuko smiled and said:
—Well, now we just have to learn to control this sudden power increase after the serum so we don't hurt anyone.
Rei said smiling happily:
—Well, it's good to know that you already planned everything. I was very worried about this. After all, it's a totally new and different planet.
Aoi smiled and said:
—You don't need to worry, Mom. I already have all the plans prepared. I just need to execute phase by phase and everything will be fine.
Aoi then thought of something and his face became serious, even with a little murderous intent, and he said:
—There's just one more thing I remembered. Do you know All Might's former partner?
Nemuri said:
—Yes, I know him. Sir Nighteye, right? What about him?
Aoi looked at them seriously and said:
—You may not remember, but his quirk is to see the future, and the activation conditions are very simple:
Physical contact: He must touch the target's body, usually through a handshake or direct touch.
Eye contact: He needs to look directly into the person's eyes.
I'm saying this because you should avoid touching him or letting him touch you, because he could discover our plan. If he touches you, I don't want anyone from the government or heroes knowing about it. And most importantly: when he touches a person to see the future, he sees everything. That is, the chance of him seeing us in intimate moments if he touches is way too high.
Rumi said angrily:
—What? If he dares to use that on me, I'll kill him.
Nemuri said:
—Well, this information is quite unpleasant.
Ryuko said:
—Calm down, everyone. He hasn't done anything. We can't treat him like a villain just because of his power.
Aoi then remembered the quirk-nullifying rings he was going to give as a gift to Aizawa. He then said:
—Morgana, appear.
Morgana then appeared on the TV screen. Morgana looked at Aoi and said:
—What is it, sir?
Aoi looked at her and said:
—I need you to create as quickly as possible, using Aizawa's power as we agreed, eight rings that nullify the quirk of anyone who tries to touch the ring bearer. Understood? Do it as fast as possible.
Morgana said:
—Yes, sir. Since all the materials are ready, I can deliver the rings by next weekend.
Ryuko, seeing this, smiled and said:
—See, everything is already ready. We don't need to treat him like a villain now.
Aoi looked at them and said:
—Don't be careless. The rings aren't ready yet. So you still have to avoid any kind of contact with him.
Nemuri said:
—That's right. Even though we now have a solution, we still don't have the rings to lower our guard.
Rumi said:
—In other words, we can still be seen by that pervert.
Ryuko said:
—Rumi, don't say that. He is a respectable hero. Sir Nighteye saved many people.
Aoi thought: That's the only reason I didn't kill him the second I found out about his power. If he were a villain or trash like my father, I could kill him with a clear conscience.
Aoi then stood up and said, while placing the kitten on the floor:
—Well, I'm going to school now. So I ask that you take good care of Matatabi for me.
Rei picked up the kitten and said:
—Don't worry, son. We'll take care of her.
Aoi then said goodbye, took his motorcycle, and headed to school.
