You Have Died
Y'know... when I was hit by that train, my top half separated from the bottom by several whirling wheels...
I didn't expect this.
Before me is a simple blue screen about a foot wide and half a foot tall, upon it are the orange words 'You Have Died'.
A moment later, a new screen pops up.
Would you like to continue?
[Yes] [No]
"…"
"…"
I reach out and tap 'Yes' even though I should really have no body at this point.
Congratulations! You, Alex Grey, have been chosen to be host to The Gamer ability!
'Okay?'
The Gamer ability is a system that grants you powers and abilities similar to that of an RPG, where you can physically choose how your body gets stronger and more!
'ok.'
Regretfully, you may not select your starting world, like most gamers have been beforehand.
"WHAT?!"
but to compensate for this, the system has randomly generated you a starter set so that you won't die immediately upon your first encounter like many gamers before you have.
Student of The North Kai Starter Set:
Ki as a power has been unlocked, Active Skill 'Kaioken' will be granted upon insertion, Active Skill 'Spirit Bomb' will be granted upon insertion, Active Skill 'Ki Flight' will be granted upon insertion, Active Skill 'Ki Blast' will be granted upon insertion, Passive Skill 'Accumulative Power' will be granted upon insertion, Wis Milestone Skills will now affect your 'Ki' stat along with 'Mp', and other skills may grant you KI abilities as Milestone Rewards.
My eyebrow is slightly twitching, but I'm not as pissed off as I was originally at the fact I'm being forced into a world that I can't decide on... after all, Kaioken is possibly my favorite dragon ball z technique...
This, is your Status Sheet:
I hear a dull ping and a new screen opens.

*FLASH*
I sit up with a gasp, rapidly scanning my surroundings with a small frown.
I'm in some alleyway... apparently that wasn't all some sort of cosmic joke and I really did get reborn with 'The Gamer'.
Skill Learned:
Accumulative Power: (Passive) [Level: Max]
You may increase the power of your ki-based attacks and abilities by overcharging them, increasing the power/abilities by 50% for using twice the Ki, +100% for using 4 times the Ki, 150% for using 8 times the Ki, 200% for using 16 times the Ki, Etc~
Skill Learned:
Ki Blast: (Active) [Level 1: 0.0%] (Cost: 50 Ki)
You summon forth a singular Ki Blast that does damage equal to 50+Wis Damage.
Skill Learned:
Ki Flight: (Active) [Level 1: 0.0%] (Cost: 100 Ki Every 10 Seconds)
You can use your Ki to float and propel yourself at the slow speed of 5 Miles Per Hour, perhaps less depending on if you are carrying heavy weights.
Skill Learned:
Spirit Bomb: (Active) [Level 1: 0.0%] (Cost: 50 Ki to begin and 5 Ki every second to maintain charging)
The spirit bomb is a good-natured attack that is designed to harm creatures with an evil heart, it takes energy from nearby creatures to charge itself, but this takes time, the bare minimum time for a Spirit Bomb to charge before it deals any sort of damage is 30 Seconds.
A spirit Bomb deals 500+(Wis*5) damage at 30 seconds, then gains an additional +50% damage for every 30 seconds charged thereafter, evil creatures take an additional 400% damage calculated separately from the spirit bomb's damage.
The user must remain immobile to charge the spirit bomb
Skill Learned:
Kaioken (Active) [Level 1: 0.0%] (Cost: (Str+Dex)*5)*Number called out) Ki every 10 seconds)
Kaioken Multiplies your Str and Dex by the number called out (Or 1.5 for a Kaioken x1), then it treats your Wisdom as multiplied for all damaging effects, Sadly, Kaioken causes you to take 2 points of damage per second per number called out due to the damaging nature of the move, (Damage to self is Multiplied by 2 for every time the number called out is divisible by 4, (Rounding Down).
All of my abilities rely on Ki... I can't even fly, nor use a Spirit Bomb, Kaioken is sort of worthless to me as I am right now, as I would only increase my five dexterity and strength into a wimpy seven... hell, even my basic of all basic Ki Blasts take up ALL of my energy.

'well, it's giving me Yen, so I'm clearly in an anime of some sort.'
I get up with a sigh and roll my shoulders.
I look down at my hands.
'son of a bitch... I'm a kid.'
My shoulders slump. 'ah who cares... I'll just grow up with an 'aesthetically pleasing' body.'
I walk out of the alley with a small frown, looking left then right.
"CRAB GUY!" I hear someone shout as they sprint past the alleyway.
"…"
"What?"
I shrug and begin walking in the direction he just came from.
I watch as a man in a business suit tackles a child out of the way of a large claw...
Also that kid has a chin the size of his entire head.
"Damnit kid! Get out of here!"

'if you can't beat em' bomb em'.'
"Heeeey!" The crab man hums. "If it isn't cold-eyes!"
"What's the big idea?! don't tell me you are going to protect that big-chinned brat?"
"Come on!" Saitama scoffs. "You're actually going to kill this kid over some harmless little prank?! Doesn't that seem kind of harsh?"
The crab man gets an absolutely disgusting grin on his face "What ever! I've killed people for a lot less! Whoever makes fun of the way I look pays the price! No exceptions."
"By the way, THAT LITTLE SHIT DREW RIDICULOUS NIPPLES ON MY MANLY CHEST IN PERMANENT MARKER! DO YOU KNOW HOW HARD IT IS GOING TO BE TO CLEAN THAT OFF WITH CLAWS FOR HANDS?!"
He points his claw at Saitama's head. "Get in my way and I'll make sure that job interview will be your last!"
'it's ready!'
I call the blast down, only to blink as a tennis-ball sized ball of energy floats in front of my hand.
'what?'
I shake my head. 'that doesn't matter!'
Saitama begins laughing uncontrollably. "It just came to me! You look like a villain from a kid's cartoon I used to watch!"
I point my hand at the crab, my palm facing outwards, willing the orb to shoot forwards.
The orb launches forwards with a small barrel-roll as it edges closer and closer to the crab as he swings his arm downwards.
The orb crashes into the side of the crab's arm just before its attack makes it to Saitama.
*Crack-Crack-BOOM*
The crab man screams in agony as his entire arm is cleaved off, his carapace cracking under the force of the orb.
Saitama widens his eyes slightly at the shower of gore and shell pieces.

'oh shit.'
Saitama suddenly leaps up, wrapping his tie around the eye of the monster as it's distracted and tugs as hard as he can as he falls down the crab man's back.
Crablante lets out another shout as his back arches, but then- *SPURT*
It's actually raining gore as Saitama pulls out his eye, somehow tugging his internal organs with it.

You have leveled up x7
Your Hp, Sp, Mp, and Ki have been refilled.
I let out a hum and turn around, walking off into the city.
I sit cross-legged on top of a random building as I take a moment to gather my thoughts.
'I'm in the one punch man universe, hm? Well... that sucks... I'm years before canon- three years if I remember correctly- and I have gamer powers.'
I frown. 'I have no way to Use my Sp and Mp currently, so I should try to find a way to use them. Plus, I don't have 'Id Create' like gamers normally get, so I have to rely on monsters killed or quests.'
'hrm... I should really train up my abilities... or at the very least, Kaioken'
'system, round off my Wis stat at a nice Fifty, then save the rest of the points.'
Due to Increasing your Wis to 50, you have gained a skill:
Energy Regenerator: (Passive) [Level: Max]
Your Ki has its Regeneration Rate doubled, .5% to 1%, additionally, you gain an extra 50% maximum Ki, and regenerate Mp 50% faster. 1% to 1.5%

You regenerate your Mp/Ki 100% faster while Meditating, however, when you do this, you can't move, nor be focusing on any sort of strenuous tasks, additionally, even while not meditating, your Mp and Ki regenerate 1% faster.
'the fact that I have three years before canon... means that I have three entire years to grind up my abilities...'
I stand up. "Kaioken."
*FWOOSH*
A bright red aura springs to life around me, flickering upwards like flames, I raise my hands with a smile and do a couple quick jabs then a punch with all my weight behind it.
Through a specific action, a skill has been developed:
Heavy Attack: (Active) [Level 1: 0.0%] (Cost: 500 SP)
You throw all your weight behind an attack, making it do more damage.

I sigh and shake my head as I wait for kaioken to fade.
'this might take a while.'
I walk around the town with a bored expression, running a single hand through my short brown hair.
'ugh... where are all the monsters?'
I've been traveling around this world for about a year now... the hero association has sprung to life, and the S Class Heroes have become a thing early this month. So far, only 'Blast' and Tatsumaki seem to be in there, but I'm pretty sure Bang will be there soon.
I pass by a storefront window and gaze inside... starting back at me is a boy, maybe fourteen or fifteen with short, messy brown hair, grey colored pupils, and slightly pale skin, he wears a t-shirt that's just slightly too big for him, and some Jeans that look like they have had better days.
"MONSTER!"
"KYAAAA!"
*Croak* "I WANT TO EAT HUMAAAANS!"
I slowly float into the air, then suddenly blast off in the direction of the sound.
Ki Flight: (Active) [Level 47: 89.3%] (Cost: 90 Ki Every 20 Seconds)
You can use your Ki to float and propel yourself at the slow speed of 42 Miles Per Hour, perhaps less depending on if you are carrying heavy weights.
"Hold it right there... for I, A Rank Hero-"
*CRASH*
I land with a crash, right behind a large frog that had just burst from the ground, it has two horns on its head and a nose ring... sort of like a bull.
It slowly turns around with another croak.

Increase your running speed even further by putting everything you've got into it.
Increases running speed by 30%
The frog's tongue lashes out, right for me, but I suddenly leap upwards, allowing the tongue to smash into the concrete floor, creating a small crater.
I easily clear the toad as I spin above it, firing a quick barrage of four ki blasts down at it, smirking lightly as they explode on its back.
Fighting Bullfrog Level 40
7760/9000 Hp
3500/4500 Sp
As I land behind it, I leap forwards again and land a couple devastating punches on its open back, smirking wildly as I launch a final kick to gain some distance once more, using the frog as a springboard, launching a flurry of twelve Ki Blasts from my hands that smack into the beast and the area just around it.
Its tongue smashes into the ground as it once more tries to grab me, but I leap above it once more, both arms raised.
"DIE!"
I hurl my hands downward, two beams of ki shoot from my palms, quickly intertwining as they rocket for the frog below, the thickness of the new beam about that of a watermelon, the beam crashes down onto the frog's back with a loud boom, knocking up a cloud of smoke that obscures it from vision.
When the smoke clears, it reveals a lightly charred corpse.
I land on top of it with a crouch as my kaioken fades.
You have leveled up x3
Your Hp, Sp, Mp, and Ki have been refilled.
I raise off the ground slowly, then blast off into the distance

These would be pretty good... had I actually invested into Intelligence and it wasn't tied for my second lowest stat...
That sounds a little sad... maybe I should go to a library sometime soon.
I sit on the steps in front of a library, quietly reading a book as I hear a sudden roar.
"YARRRHARRR I AM THE MIGHTY PIRATE GOLD BEARD! BEWARE HUMANITY! ALL YER TREASURE IS MINE!"
I look up to see a... thing... step out of the River as passersbys scream in terror and sprint away.
It looks like a pirate ship, but it has a face where the figurehead should be, it has two legs below it, and has a large muscular arm on each side.
It honestly looks like some sort of Thomas the tank engine monstrosity... and is about twenty feet tall.

I grimace as two cannons peek out from either side of his head and shoot towards a nearby building.
I raise my hands, causing the cannonballs to freeze mid air, then with a flick they return to where they came from-
*BOOM*
The cannonballs explode on contact with the ship monster's side.

With a single wave I dismiss the screens
The pirate ship turns towards me, a scowl on his gaunt and pale face.
"I dare." I frown as I point towards my chest with my thumb.
"DIE LANDLUBBER!" It roars as it opens its mouth as wide as it can.
*BWEEEE*
My eyes widen as a red light shines in the back of its throat, then a second later a massive red beam is shot from it.
'alright guess we're doing this, then.'
I clap my hands together, palms glowing as I fire my own attack back, the two beams crash together, each pushing the other as a ball steadily forms.

The blasts seem equal, which is a little scary because I could probably one shot myself with my current output...
The blast begins slowly creeping towards me as the monster puts a little more oomph into his attack, his stamina ticking down another two thousand five hundred.
'I'm not going to play with this... one little fuckup and I die.'
"Kaioken times four!"
The clashing beams quickly rocket backwards, engulfing Gold Beard's entire face, I know he isn't dead, and I've only got fifteen seconds- thirteen now- so I need to make this count!
I seemingly teleport to the side of the monster, fist reared back, my fist blurs for a second as I send a punch right into the side of its knee with a fairly loud crack, three bruises quickly appearing afterwards as I teleport slightly to the back of his other knee.
His knee buckles as my hand just becomes a blur once more, forcing him into a kneeling position.
'ten seconds.'
I quickly blur around to his front that is still covered in smoke and punch him right in the chin... twice...
Then leap above him and spent the rest of my Ki shooting him with ki blasts.
The bright red aura surrounding me fades... but... he's still not dead.
Gold Beard Level 90
15700/108375 Hp
5750/12750 Sp
Close, but not dead... not by a longshot.
I land behind him just as he slowly gets to his feet, he suddenly whirls around and shoots a sweeping beam from his mouth, I barely leap over it and roll to my feet.
I raise my hands at him with a frown.
He looks a lot worse for wear, his keel is cracked, the masts and sails are completely gone, several planks are missing with blood leaking out of the holes, his eyes are bloodshot and blood seeps from around his teeth... he is missing a few now.
"I'm going to DROWN YOU!" The ship-man roars as the twin canons peek out again.
The blast is deafening as I leap out of the way, one of the cannonballs stopping abruptly and returning to the monster with another explosion, but the second crashes into where I was just standing seconds before and sends small pebbles and shards of metal into my back as it detonates on the asphalt, breaking through the telekinetic barrier I placed behind me.
"Hrk-"
I let out a light pant as blood drips down my back.

The ship is also breathing heavily as blood drips down his face from the most recent cannonball explosion.
"You're... out of cannonballs... aren't you." I huff, arms held limp to my side.
"I don't... need my cannons to keelhaul you." The monster states with a weak wheeze
It begins taking a slow and meandering limp forwards.
"Oh? You're approaching me when by all right you should be fleeing in terror?" I ask with a confident grin.
"I need to get closer if I want to squash you." The monster growls.
"Oh-ho! Then come as close as you like." I smirk, reference completed.
'I need to time this just right...'
He reaches twenty feet away, then suddenly lunges forwards, arm slamming downwards, but I abruptly activate sprint and dash between his legs, his hand causing a large crater where I was just a moment before.
I land two quick punches to the back of his leg that cause his flesh to ripple, then I jet to the other side of him as he whirls around, fist carving a line in the asphalt as he goes, sending shards of rubble scattering out.
'twelve seconds of sprint left'
I land two more punches on his legs before crossing back in between his legs, hopping up to land a single punch against his throat.
His interlocked fists land right in front of me causing me to stumble backwards and change tactics.
I jump into the gap in between his hands, kicking off his forearm as I leap up on top of him, where I land a trio of punches that crack the floorboards of his back.
I widen my eyes and leap off his back suddenly.
*CRACK*
His hands smash into his own back, creating a large dent in his body.
"AAAGHHH!"
In his pained haze, his eyes lock onto me, slowly drifting back to the ground, he lashes out with a backhand that slams into my stomach. "Grk-"
I am flying through the wall of a nearby building.
He lets out several low pants as he stares the hole in the wall for a moment.
A piece of rubble is shoved off my body with one hand, I have blood dripping down my forehead, several of my ribs are broken, and blood is heavily dripping down my arm from a gash on my shoulder as blood flows from the corners of my mouth.
"W-What?!" The pirate asks. "H-How are you still alive?! You landlubbers are meant to be squashed underfoot! You can't survive my attacks!"

I raise a single hand towards him... a small ki blast flies from my hand and smashes into him as he tries to get out of the way, the creaking of wood, reaches my ears as his body splits, his movement, earlier damage, and my attack resulting in a perfect scenario.
His arm goes flying through the air, where it lands with a meaty thump twenty feet away.
His other arm falls to his side as a second blast cleaves through the few planks of wood keeping it on his body.
He falls to his knees, barely alive, then he slumps to the side with a small wheeze.

An orb appears in front of my hand.
"Fuck you. Die." I growl as the orb grows in size.
It quickly arcs across the short distance and smashes into the monster, face first.
*BOOM*
His head explodes in a shower of gore.

I let out a long sigh and turn away from the ship's body.
'with that... I've probably become more than twice as strong as I was... I could probably fight two of him now... and win... and that last wisdom perk more than doubled my Ki... so I can manage a kaioken times six or even seven easily now...'
With a small mental selection, I equip my 'S Class In The Making' title.
I glance down at my shirt with a frown, it is in tatters, the back is nearly completely gone, it is covered in my own blood, and I have multiple holes in the front.
"Hey you."
I pause mid-step.
I slowly swivel around to see a little girl... with green hair...
Floating about a foot off the ground in a black dress, arms crossed, with an unimpressed stare.
Tatsumaki Level: ?
"…"
"So... you're the one who killed that monster, hm?" She asks.
"Yeah." I nod.
"Mn. Not impressed." She scoffs. "How could you get wounded by something that weak."
"Well, I don't know lady, maybe it was the fact that I haven't actually fought anything stronger than a tiger level threat... but I've adapted... I've grown quite a bit stronger in the past two or so minutes of fighting a pirate ship with legs, so now I could kill him twice over before he could really do anything."
"Now, if you'll excuse me... I need to go replace my shirt with something less bloody."
"Is that really how you should be talking to an S Class hero?!" She frowns.
I gain a green outline as I am lifted off the ground.
"…"
A dark blue outline surrounds me as well and I look at her with an unimpressed stare.
She blinks slowly. "You're an Esper?"
"I am... but my preferred fighting style is to punch things though, so it's probably a little weaker than it should be."
"You should use it more." She states with a huff. "Psychic powers are better than brawn."
The green glow around me disappears as she turns away. "Hmph. This was a massive waste of time."
She floats up then quickly flies off into the distance, leaving me alone, flying under my own psychic power.
I tilt my head as I also float up into the sky, then fly in the opposite direction, noticeably slower than the green blur that was Tatsumaki.
"I AM COW MAN! FOR TO LONG HAS HUMANITY HUNTED MY BOVINE BROTHERS! TODAY IS OUR REVALUTION- eh?! Why can't I move?!
I'm standing in front of him with a hand held out towards
With a blank expression I use my psychic power to twist the Minotaur's arms the wrong way around, then with a small twist, his head is now one hundred and eighty degrees.

I put my hands back in my pocket with a sigh. 'if another monster shows up, I'm going to be fucking late...'
I continue my meandering pace towards my destination... a tall building several training fields and other buildings around it.
I enter the main building and pause in front of the secretary desk. "Hi, I'm here to take the Hero entrance exam?"
She is a young woman with wavy purple hair tied in a wide ponytail with straight bangs framing her face, she looks up with sight disappointment then sighs.
"Name, please?"
"Alex Grey."
"Age?"
"Eighteen."
She looks up with a raised eyebrow but shrugs and continues filling out the form.
"Place of birth?"
"Unknown."
The woman sighs, probably realizing that she is going to have to fill out a couple forms.
A machine to her left springs to life, spitting out a single piece of paper which she hands to me. "Waiting room twenty-two."
I shrug and take the piece of paper and walk away.
I slowly blink as I look down at a folder I was given.
"Alex Grey: Class S."
This is surprisingly underwhelming.
Ah yes... Class S...
Rank 11.
The lowest of all Class S heroes...
Currently.
Honestly, S Class maaaay be slightly overestimating my capabilities...
Maybe.
"KYAAA MONSTER!"
"Target Acquired."
I am forced to lean forwards as a large sword cleaves through the spot my head was in seconds before.
I land with a crouch on a nearby lamppost with a raised eyebrow. "Who the hell are you?"

"Threat Assessment Correct... Alex Grey, Class S, Confirmed." A robotic voice drones on as civilians quickly back away.
"W-Wait, is that guy the new class S hero?! AWESOME!" A voice in the surrounding crowd shouts out.
I look down at a large suit of medieval full plate armor with a singular glowing red eye deep within its visor, on its chest is a single purple glowing gem that glints in the light, on its back is a large sheath for the sword it is currently holding.
It points the sword up at me. "I will acquire your true combat parameters."
I slowly blink down at it. 'this guy is... surprisingly weak...'
I glance down at the folder I am holding, then shrug as I slip my other hand in my pocket and hop off the lamppost with a sigh. "I sort of just wanted to go and get a sandwich, but if you want to die, by all means, come at me."
It blurs forwards, sword arcing down towards my neck-
*Creak*
It skids backwards suddenly with four large dents on its chest, one a lot deeper than the rest.
*Chzzz*
Sparks spew from the center most dent which actually pierces the mechanical armor and severs some of the internal components.

"Combat ability exceeds predicted value." The robot's voice drones out, now heavily distorted.

I narrow my eyes as the centermost gem begins to increase its glow, I toss the folder up into the air.
A spark appears in front of the orb, but I am already gone.
*BWEEEE*
A massive beam shoots off into the sky as I flash step behind the robot, kicking the back of its knees while grabbing the back of its neck and pulling.
My other hand smashes into its spine as I unleash my own beam attack.
The robot's chest explodes outwards, my beam carrying a smaller robot up into the sky.
G2 (Core) Level 60
12440/13000 Hp
9750/9750 Sp
I narrow my eyes, the beam piercing through the larger robot's chest quickly doubling in size, causing more metal and circuitry to spew from the robot's chest as the original hole is enlarged.
"NOOOOooooo"
The robotic voice dies as it is quickly reduced to nothing but small pieces scrap which rains down from the sky.
You have leveled up x1
Your Hp, Sp, Mp, and Ki have been refilled.
I hold my hand up and catch the folder which I tossed up earlier.
I scan over a couple more lines.
"Wait... I get payed how much every month?!"
*This is where I stopped writing*
Well, here's another story for the trash bin~ this one was dropped because, like all gamer fics, it's a mess. When I first started writing this, I should have set up a rule like 'skills only improve every 25 levels' or something, because with things like Ki flight, I upgraded the speed every 2 levels, then with things like kaioken I improved it every 25, so I sort of lost track.
Hell, I couldn't even complete the original gamer comic because at some point it just becomes 'I spam this one attack over and over again and win' sort of removing the whole wonder of 'I can evolve skills and instantly learn them' thing...
I like the idea, though, so maybe one day I might go back to something like this.
Also, for future reference, the Ki technique he would have created would have been 'Super Psion'
Take that as you will.
Also, Terrible Trio has an extra 4-5k words or so added to it, plus a Rwby crossover as Nicodemus realizes what 'Planeshift' actually means and leaves behind his two friends so they don't try to steal his babes.
