Chapter 7: Sloth!
Inside of the training facility of Itachi Sitri, was Itachi himself and Kuroka. "Okay, what you want to do is focus, concentrate on your energy into your spirit, in other words your life-force. And then you have to turn it into a constant current. Nya." Kuroka explained senjutsu to Itachi, whom was in a meditating position. "Now, unlike Sairaorg whom was able to use touki through intense training over the years, normally one would have to go through learning senjutsu to use it. Nya. But you should be fine since you have trained a lot in your life, now you just have to focus on it." Kuroka kept explaining as Itachi was only trying to learn touki at the moment, since he used to be a shinobi learning about this shouldn't be too difficult for him.
Itachi had quickly noticed that this worlds chakra was way different from his old world's version, but he had decided kept his focus on the touki for now rather than senjutsu, although he was interested in learning senjutsu someday. Itachi for the last few weeks has been studying about touki and trying to master it, he has wanted to ever since his fight with Sairaorg three years ago. He and Sairaorg have even been having some sparring matches with each other to try and teach Itachi touki that way, but now that Kuroka was here Itachi thought she would be better at teaching him. Then as Itachi kept meditating a strange aura flared around him, he could feel his strength increase and he could feel warmth from this aura.
Itachi stood up as the aura kept flaring around him, he looked at his own hands while clenching and unclenching his fists. "Have I done it?" Itachi looked at Kuroka with a stoic expression.
"It was a success! Nya!" Kuroka said with a smile as she moved her hand in a cat like fashion.
"Okay then, time to test this out. Computer, activate simulator level 60!" Itachi shouted as the computer in the spectator room lighted up.
"Simulator, level 60, activated."
Four robotic skeletons popped up from the ground and one took the shape of an eight-winged angel, and three sixth winged angels. Itachi formed the three tomoe sharingan in his eyes as his gaze was narrowed at the angel simulators. Itachi then leaped at even greater speed than ever before, towards the angels and slammed his fist into the gut of one of the sixth winged angels. And instantly the simulation returned to a robotic skeleton. Itachi looked at his own fist with a satisfied look, and then swiftly turned around and delivered a kick to the second sixth winged angel, sending it flying into the wall and shockwaves coming from the clash. When the dust cleared it revealed a robotic skeleton pushed up against the wall that had a crater in it.
Without a doubt Itachi's strength had increased, he then turned around and grabbed the last sixth winged angel by the wrist as it was about to thrust a spear of light at Itachi. Itachi then threw a powerful punch into the angel simulators face sending it flying and just like the last one it returned to a robotic skeleton. The eight-winged angel flew up and formed two magic circles beside it that shot out multiple spears of light.
Itachi with his new increased speed, and sharingan moved so fast that he was able to dodge all the light spears without any difficulty. He then leaped up to the eight-winged angel and delivered a kick to its chin, and then Itachi kept throwing a barrage of kicks into the angel, and once they were up high enough, Itachi raised his leg up in the air, and slammed it down onto the angels cut, sending it crashing down into the ground. And the eight-winged angel turned into a robotic skeleton as it laid in a crater.
"Level 60 complete, well done young master."
"Awesome as always, Itachi-sama. Nya." Kuorka hugged Itachi's arm between her breasts.
Itachi gave a small smile at Kuroka, before he suddenly got a call on a magic circle. "I see, we have a stray devil situation." Itachi and Kuroka teleported to the human world to hunt for this stray devil, and they managed to track it down into an abandoned factory. "Why don't you deal with this one." Itachi said.
Itachi sat back and relaxed as he watched Kuroka easily dispose of a Stray Devil they had been assigned to eliminate. She stood over the dead body of the Stray Devil that looked like the mixture of a man and a scorpion, Kuroka had blue like flames coming from her hands that she had used to kill the Stray Devil. "Mission complete, nya." Kuroka winked while moving her hand in a cat like fashion.
"Good work." Itachi complimented as Kuroka had really proven her worth to him, as she was at least low Ultimate Class level at this point. Itachi stroked her hair as a sign of her having done a good job and she purred like a kitten.
"Was there anything else for us to do? Nya." Kuroka hugged Itachi's arm between her breasts that had grown even more, and so had that of a certain red haired Gremory Princess and her Queen. Ever since Kuroka had shown up, he would wake up in bed with her lying next to him usually naked and using his body as a body pillow. Rias, Akeno and Koneko would do the same whenever they visited Sona for a "slumber party" ever since Kuroka got here and openly declared that she desired Itachi, the other girls had become more aggressive as well. However, Itachi wasn't sure what to do with them, he wasn't even sure what he felt towards them. He knew he considered them as close friends, and he knew that he didn't want to hurt their feelings. Itachi had never been that good when it came to love, heck he didn't even know that he loved Izumi until she was gone from his life.
"Hmm, no that was the last one for today. We should continue looking for potential peerage members." Itachi said as he had decided that gathering a peerage would be most useful for him in the future. However, if he was going to gather peerage members he wanted them to be very skilled at fighting or at least have potential to become very powerful.
"Hmm, I have found some rumors about some powerful people in the human world, and some strange phenomenon that has occurred around the human world as well that might be worth checking out. Nya." Kuroka said as she took out a list from between her cleavage. "We have a powerful boxer in America said to have defeated all his opponents with only one punch, his name is Bob, his about three years older than you and me so he's 16. And on Hawaii some strange incidents that ended up saving a lot of people have occurred, the Underworld suspects a strange old man named Harry Newgate. And finally, rumors have it the legendary serial killer, Jack the Ripper has returned in London killing prostitutes. And that's all we have so far for potential peerage members." Kuroka browsed through the list.
"Hmm, let's check this Bob guy out first." Itachi said as Kuroka prepared a magic circle for them to travel with. They arrived in an alleyway where several people gathered talking about an amazing boxing match. "Guess this is the place." Itachi looked through the document they had on Bob, apparently, his parents abandoned him when they discovered he had a special power thinking he was a demon child. He was put into an orphanage. And when his powers were discovered there after an incident where he injured a fellow child he was once again feared, he was then taken in by the man who manages this boxing area.
To Itachi it seemed that Bob was someone who felt all alone in the world and just wanted a place to call home. Itachi and Kuroka walked into the boxing place and walked down a staircase, as they walked down several young guys around their age or slightly older, looked at Kuroka amazed that a girl her age had developed this much. And some girls around their age or slightly older were looking at Itachi thinking he was quite good looking and mature looking despite his age.
Itachi noticed a shady looking short fat guy wearing sunglasses taking in bets for the fight by the entrance making it obvious he was the manager. "Tell me, where is this famous fighter Bob, I would like to have a word with him." The shady man looked at Itachi with a raised brow.
"Sorry, no autograph signings. You can watch his fight tomorrow." The man told them off and kept counting his money with a greedy smirk on his face while doing so.
"I'm not here for an autograph, I'm here to discuss something with him. Now tell me…" Itachi looked into the man's eye with his sharingan glowing. "…where is he?"
The man looked a little dizzy as he was under Itachi's genjutsu. "Two doors to the right…" The man uttered.
"Much obliged." Itachi said and walked with Kuroka towards the door where this Bob was. Itachi knocked politely on the door and waited for a response.
"Yeah, what is it?" A lazy like voice was heard, and a yawn.
"Are you Bob? I would like to talk something over with you, would you mind opening up the door please?" Itachi asked politely.
"Umm, I-It's open." The voice replied sounding a little shy and nervous.
Itachi opened the door and he and Kuroka walked in, only to see a very short petite frail boy wearing pajamas that were decorated with a star and a moon, he had messy brown hair and light brown eyes. Kuroka had a look of shock and was gaping in surprise over at this short guy was the so called one punch Bob, a little boy whom looked like he had just gotten out of bed and looked nervous and frightened as he was shaking like a leaf. But Itachi kept his stoic expression and didn't look surprised at all. "I'm Bob, what do you want?"
"Greetings Bob, I am Itachi Sitri, and I have a job offer for you." Itachi said and Kuroka looked surprised that Itachi wasn't surprised by Bob's appearance, and she was still gaping.
"Oy, Itachi-sama, this little guy can't be Bob, he has like no power what so ever." Kuroka whispered into Itachi's ear.
"Never judge a person by only at first glance." Itachi whispered back and looked down at Bob whom was just as short as Koneko. "So, do you want to hear out the details?"
"I-I'm sorry, b-but I'm not interested, I got a good thing going on here already you see, so I'm sorry." Bob said and turned around and jumped onto a bed and hugging a massive body pillow. "Now please go, I need to sleep for tomorrow's match."
"… Very well then." Itachi said and walked away and Kuroka looked at him with a confused expression but she followed after her master and closed the door behind them as they left.
"I can't believe that you are just giving up like that. Nya." Kuroka said in disbelief and had a look that said she demanded an explanation.
"Oh, I haven't given up. But you heard what the short little fat guy said earlier, we can come and watch him fight tomorrow." Itachi said with a smile that said he had a plan and Kuroka gained a curious look on her face. He then once again went up to the short little fat man at the entrance. "Excuse me but I have a request, could you sign me up for the match against Bob tomorrow."
"You? Fight against Bob? Heh, sure kid but you're going to have to pay the entrance fee." The man smirked greedily while rubbing his fingers together. "1 grand." Itachi just gave him the money no questions asked and walked away with Kuroka.
"Now what? Nya." Kuroka asked.
"How about we check around the area for a bit." Itachi suggested as they went on sightseeing.
23 hours later
Inside of the dark room that belonged to Bob, someone suddenly knocked on the door, and then opened said door, and in walked in the short little fat manager. "Bob, my star, I hope you had a nice nap. Cause the fight's about to start." The manager grinned while letting out a chuckle.
A dark shadowy figure that was Bob opened his eyes, his once innocent looking eyes, looked now serious and cold. "I'm ready." His voice was also deeper and more mature.
Later, back at the boxing arena, multiple people where gathered in front of a boxing ring cheering wildly while cursing and saying Bob would fuck you up. Itachi stood in the ring, shirtless as he wore standard boxing gear with the exception of gloves as he had white tape instead. "Now ladies and gentleman! The man of the hour! Our legendary champion! Bob! The One Punch Man!" The short little fat man declared as out from a tunnel exited a tall handsome muscular build man, his muscles were massive and even just his biceps were bigger than Itachi's head. He had the same brown messy hair as the short petite Bob and the same eyes, he wore the same boxing gear as Itachi.
"There's no way that is the same guy! His power is massive! Nya!" Kuroka said in disbelief while practically gaping as she couldn't believe that the little shy kid they met earlier was this guy, a gigantic massive titan of a man, Itachi on the other hand remained stoic and didn't seem surprised.
"No, that's him one on the same. He has a special magic power you see." Itachi said and Kuroka looked at him in confusion. "I read that in the documentations you showed me, you really should have read it through." Itachi said and Kuroka faintly blushed out of embarrassment.
"What is his magic ability anyway?" Kuroka questioned wondering how someone could go from a puny shrimp into a giant titan of a man.
"…" Itachi stayed silent as Bob entered the ring and he was now towering over Itachi, and looked down at him with a raised brow.
"You're that kid? What do you think you're doing?" Bob questioned as he recognized Itachi from yesterday and this time Bob seemed more brave, calm and relaxed, not to mention more energetic.
"I told you, I have a job offer for you. Thought this was the only way I could discuss this with you." Itachi replied looking up at Bob with a calm smile.
"And I told you I'm not interested." Bob said as he pulled his hands back over his brown messy hair, slicking his hair back leaving one bang over his forehead. "What makes you think a guy like you can fight me anyway?" Bob asked not because he was overconfident, but because he wasn't sure if a teenager like Itachi should fight him.
"Oh, trust me, like you, I'm not your average teenager." Itachi replied with a little relaxed smile on his lips.
"Heh, fine, if you can beat me in a contest of strength, I will consider your offer." Bob bent forward to look Itachi right in the eyes.
"Very well, I shall fight you fair and square." Itachi accepted the offer as they both went on the opposite sides of the ring.
Kuroka leant in over the side and whispered in Itachi's ear. "Just finish him off with one of your illusion and let's grab him and get out of here. Nya."
"That certainly would be the easy way out. However, I gave him my word I would defeat him using nothing more than brute strength." Itachi declared and Kuroka looked at him in shock thinking Itachi would have taken the easy way out to finish a fight.
"So, like what? Only your fists, demonic power and magic attacks?" Kuroka questioned.
"Yes, that sounds about right." Itachi replied and looked at Bob whom was cracking his knuckles. "Besides, this will be the perfect test to see how strong he really is." He and Bob walked up to each other and got into position and a cage was lowered around them, then the bell rang.
"I will end this quickly for you kid." Bob said with a cold glance as he swung his massive fist down into Itachi's face sending him crashing into the cage bars and the crowd cheered. Bob sighed and was about to declare victory, but then he gained a look of shock and surprise. Itachi stood up and looked at Bob with a stoic emotionless expression as he spitted out some blood to the side. For the first time, someone had managed to stand after being punched by Bob and he was a mere teenager.
"You certainly pack a punch, but I could feel you were holding back. I advise you to go all out." Itachi said and Bob narrowed his gaze at Itachi.
"Heh, right, like I will fight serious against you." Bob said but he wasn't really interested in fighting at full power as he was afraid he could kill his opponent. Then suddenly Itachi had a strange aura around his body as he activated touki, and Itachi then appeared beneath Bob and delivered a devastating powerful upper cut punch to Bob's jaw, whom looked surprised as he was knocked back a few steps. Itachi then leaped onto the cage and jumped at Bob, hovering over his head and delivered another powerful punch to his face, this time a little blood spilled out from the giant titan's mouth as he fell to his knees. The audience gasped in shock until they started to cheer again.
"Like I said, you shouldn't hold back." Itachi said stepping on Bob's back with his right foot. Bob smirked and easily pushed Itachi off and swung his fist into the young Sitri's gut at full force and Itachi vomited out blood, Bob's punch was even more powerful than Sairaorg's, with Sairaorg it felt like being punched by solid rock, but with Bob it was like getting punched by a dragon. Itachi quickly recovered, got back up and wiped the blood from his mouth. "I see, as expected of Storage Magic."
"Storage Magic?" Kuroka questioned as she witnessed the fight.
"What did you say just now?" Bob questioned with a narrowed cold gaze.
"That's the name of your ability, is it not? A magic ability that allows a person to store up power within their bodies the more they sleep, the more you sleep the stronger you become. However, the power they store up only remains for a day, if you sleep for more than a day the power will begin to store up all over again. And you have been asleep for 23 hours now, correct? The maximum limit of your ability. And you can only remain in this state for one hour then you return to your petite state. It is said a person's only born with this ability every century." Itachi explained and Bob looked surprised of learning this, meaning he had no idea what his own power was, just how it worked.
"Nice story, but this is not story time." Bob said as he suddenly appeared in front of Itachi and punched him in the face with a left hook, then he kneed him in the gut and delivered an upper cut punch to Itachi's jaw. If Itachi wasn't a devil he would have been knocked out by now, no any normal devil would have been knocked out by now, if he hadn't been as strong as he was he would have been knocked out. "You said I shouldn't hold back, but what about you?"
"Guess you noticed that, huh?" Itachi said as he pushed himself back up, with blood running down from his mouth and nose.
"Of course, so go on, give me everything you got." Bob said and began releasing a powerful aura around him as the whole ring started to shake, no, the whole building. The audience had no idea what was going on, and began to look a little frightened and nervous.
"Kuroka, put everyone here to sleep, would you?" Itachi looked over at his queen whom gave him a nod and formed a magic circle in her palm that released a foggy mist, then suddenly everyone besides her, Itachi and Bob were knocked out.
"Now, I can go all out." Itachi said as Bob raised his brow in confusion when suddenly a magic circle formed in front of him.
Fire Shot!
Itachi blasted a ball of fire right into Bob's face sending the giant man skidding back a bit with a look of shock. Itachi then appeared beneath him and delivered a powerful punch into Bob's chest making him twitch his eyes in pain, Bob then grabbed Itachi around the waist and lifted his body up in the air. As Bob was about to slam Itachi into the ground. "Teleportation." Itachi uttered and his body vanished through a magic circle, as he reappeared above Bob and delivered an axe kick upside his head.
Bob easily recovered as if Itachi's kick looked like it barely did anything, Bob swung his massive fist at Itachi whom blocked it with his arms in an x-formation and was sent flying across the ring by the power of Bob's devastating punch.
Bob then punched in the air sending shockwaves of his punches, as the shockwaves flew towards Itachi they dragged up a bit off the ring and slammed into the young Sitri's body creating more bruises on his body and making Itachi vomit out a little blood, even with his Touki, Bob's strength still exceeded Itachi's. "Is that it?" Bob questioned looking rather bored. "Is that your full power?"
"Not quite." Itachi replied with his bangs covering his forehead.
"Then show me, don't waste my time." Bob said with a stern demanding tone.
"Hn, remember, you asked for it." Itachi created a large sphere of fire that was so hot that the entire cage melted. "Kuroka? There was a lake in a park nearby correct?"
"Yes, there was. Nya." Kuroka smirked knowing what Itachi was planning to do. And she was sweating from the heat that was released from the fire sphere in Itachi's hand. "Just get that sphere out of here before everyone in here gets overcooked."
"Good." Itachi slammed the sphere into Bob at first and the impact was strong enough to send him flying through the roof of the building they were in. He kept flying until he was hovering over a lake in a big closed off park. Itachi flew right above him with the fire sphere and devil bat wings sticking out from his back. Even if Bob's strength exceeded Itachi's, Itachi still had magic and demonic power in his arsenal to make them more evenly matched.
Fire Magic: Nova
Itachi blasted the blazing sphere into Bob pushing him down into the massive lake, he struggled to push the sphere off of him, he tried and tired but to no avail, the moment he hit the bottom of the lake the sphere exploded. And a massive pillar of steam rose from the lake as it was completely evaporated. Itachi flew into the hole in the ground that was covered with steam and used to be the lake. Once Itachi landed he was hit by a shockwave as Bob walked out from the steam with a few bruises and burn marks over his body.
"So, that was magic huh? Now shall we get serious and finish this?" Bob said with a cold narrowed gaze as he stood in a stance with his right hand pulled behind his back. Bob then vanished at immense speed and appeared right in front of Itachi. He then pushed his palm forward and sent a massive shockwave at Itachi pushing him to the end of the hole and further all the way to the end of the park while dragging up a massive amount of the ground with him, as a lot of dust gathered around the entire park except for the small area behind Bob, and powerful gushes of wind blew around the park as well as powerful soundwaves and shockwaves that tore the park apart bit by bit.
Kuroka whom flew over them widened her eyes in shock. "Incredible… This Bob's strength is unbelievable… He almost destroyed the entire park with a mere shockwave." Kuroka uttered as from her point of view, it looked like a meteorite had hit the park and destroyed over 90% of it.
Bob appeared right in front of Itachi whom was on his knees and had a massive bruise mark over his gut and there was a puddle of blood that he had vomited out. Itachi was clenching his right hand over his gut, that was the most powerful punch he has ever experienced, he could feel his ribs were broken, but it didn't matter, he had already won. Itachi looked up at Bob with a smirk. "I am impressed, you really are strong… which makes this all the more better…" Itachi stood up and held his right index and middle finger out. "But even though you are powerful, it's still my win." Itachi said with his sharingan activated flaring in a bright red color.
"Oh? From what I see, you're the most injured out of the two of us." Bob looked down upon Itachi and stepped on his back in the same fashion Itachi did to him in the ring. "You weren't all talk, but you still lose." Bob said with a bored expression, but he was impressed over Itachi's power as this was the first time anyone had injured him this badly in his 23-hour state. "So, how does it feel? To lose to a human? Whatever you are." Bob knew from Itachi's abilities plus when he saw those wings on Itachi, that he was not human.
"I am a devil, and I haven't lost." Itachi said with a little smile creeping up on his lips and Bob raised his brow in confusion. "It's over." Itachi swung his arm to the side and in a split second, a cut appeared across Bob's torso and a massive amount of blood gushed out from the cut and he then vomited out a massive amount of blood, he stepped back and looked at Itachi with wide eyes of shock.
"Y-You bastard… what did you do?!" Bob questioned as he fell to his knees while coughing up a puddle of blood.
"Like I said, I win." Itachi declared as he stood up looking down on Bob. "My special ability is not fire, but to control water. I can manipulate even the tiniest water particle, I got you out here and to this lake to gather enough steam, that steam you breathed in after my fire attack, had water particles in them and they went into your body, from where I manipulated them to attack you from the inside." Itachi explained and Bob looked at him in shock as he held his right arm over his wound trying to stop the bleeding. "I suggest you give up and let my friend help close up that wound of yours, or else you will die."
"…Ugh! I submit…" Bob uttered as he vomited out even more blood.
"Kuroka!" Itachi called for his queen whom flew down, and used the what little knowledge she had learned about healing magic to stop the bleeding. "Now, will you hear me out about this job offer?" Itachi asked seeing as Bob lost the match.
"… Fine, go ahead." Bob uttered as he was a little curious, plus he did lose the match.
"I want you to join my peerage and become a devil." Itachi said and Bob widened his eyes in surprise and in shock over at the fact that he was offered to become a devil. "If you accept you will become a servant of the household of Sitri, and a part of our family. And you will have a chance to progress from the life of a low-class devil, to the point where you can get a peerage of your own when you become a high-class. I will grant you a place to call home, friends and a family, in return all I ask from you is your strength and loyalty."
"Wh-What happens to me when I become a devil? With my body, I mean?" Bob asked as he was hesitant to accept the offer.
"Your body will become stronger, faster and more durable than that of a human, so you get a small power boost. You get the ability to fly with wings, use magic circles, and your lifespan increases to the point where it's almost eternal. Otherwise, you will look just like you always do. There really is only that which makes humans different from devils." Itachi said and the offer sounded tempting for Bob, whom was in deep thought.
Bob remembered how his old family was like, his father and mother were normal people but very religious, but once they had discovered his ability during one night when Bob slept longer than usual and unconsciously activated all that stored up power. "B-Bob? What's happening to you, y-you're a monster…" He could hear his father's voice utter in fear.
"Get out of here! You demon child!" He could hear his mother's voice yell at him. He remembered how he was dropped off at an orphanage, and once they discovered his power they feared him to, as he accidently hurt one of the other children. He then remembers when that shady short fat looking man came to the orphanage having heard of Bob's power, adopted him, and the next thing he knew he was fighting in a boxing ring.
He had truly forgotten the meaning of family, but now this teenager, no this young man, was offering him a new home and a family. And from the looks of it, they wouldn't fear his power. "… I accept… your offer." Bob uttered.
Itachi smiled a little and summoned out his evil pieces that were on a floating chessboard. "Now, which piece do you want?"
"Piece? What's different about them?" Bob questioned.
"Well it determines your role sort of as my servant. Personally, I think you would fit for either a rook or a pawn. As a rook, you will have immense physical strength, and as a pawn, you can promote yourself to any of the other pieces in enemy territory besides the king which is me, Kuroka here is my only peerage member for now and she has the queen piece." Itachi explained.
"Wait, so you only live with her?" Bob asked confused by all of this.
"Oh, no. I'm from a noble devil family and we have lots of maids and butlers and such. Plus, my parents and sisters have their own peerage members. And they are all a part of our family, like you're going to be." Itachi explained and Bob seemed to understand it now.
"I would take pawn, seems the best choice for me anyway." Bob uttered as he vomited out a little more blood as his wound hadn't fully closed up yet.
"Okay then." Itachi grabbed all his pawn pieces, to see how many he needed to use. Five pieces then glowed and merged into Bob's body, the wound on his body then faded and he had completely recovered. "You are now a reincarnated devil, welcome to the household of Sitri, Bob." Itachi reached out his hand in a friendly manner and Bob accepted it.
"Now then, to fix the damages. Nya." Kuroka said and her and Itachi used magic to fix up the destroyed park, and Itachi refilled the lake with water, they then went back to the boxing building and woke everyone up.
The moment they woke up they were all confused as to what had happened, Bob looked at the short fat little man. "I quit." Was all he said before he walked out with Itachi and Kuroka.
"Wait?! What?!" The fat manager questioned while grinding his teeth in anger. "You get back here! I own you!" The manager was then knocked down by a small shockwave from Bob whom held the contract the manager had signed with the orphanage and ripped it to shreds.
"No, you don't." Bob said coldly as he left with his two new friends. Before they left Bob went and grabbed his stuff, which was his pajamas and his body pillow, he had nothing else. Once they exited the one hour had passed and Bob suddenly shrunk back into his tiny petite frail self, he then rubbed his hands over his slicked back hair and made it look messy again. "Can we go now? I'm tired." Bob said and let out a yawn.
"Certainly, but first." Itachi took Bob's hand and had a glow of light on his finger, he swung it over Bob's hand and the Sitri symbol formed on it. "There now you are marked as a member of my household. This will help you not to get mistaken for a Stray Devil should you wander off on your own."
"A Stray Devil?" Bob questioned having no idea what either of them were talking about, as he was still learning the ropes of being a devil.
"A devil whom has betrayed and abandoned their master to fulfil their own desires, they are hunted down by normal devils and exterminated. That will be your job sometimes, oh and sometimes you're going to have to make a contract with humans." Itachi informed.
"Umm, this is not the type of thing where I take a human's soul or anything right?" Bob questioned with big wide worried eyes, as he wasn't really comfortable with that.
"That used to be the case back in the old days, but this time you just agree upon a payment. It can be anything really even money." Itachi explained and Bob looked a little relived as he let out a deep sigh. "Also, until you get a familiar, you're going to have to hand out some flyers."
"Flyers? What for?" Bob questioned.
"Usually humans would summon us through magic circles and such, but that became too complicated so now we hand out these flyers, they summon us through them and we appear out of a magic circle, simple as that. Then you just do what they want you to do and you agree on a price." Itachi explained the basics of the whole thing.
"Aha, great, and these familiars you mentioned. What are they?" Bob questioned with a raised brow.
"They are helpers sort of." Itachi replied and he and Kuroka formed a magic circle in their palms and out from Kuroka's came a black cat and from Itachi's came a crow. "They each have special abilities that can assist you in battle, my crow for example can create five copies of me and cast illusions on my enemies to confuse them." Itachi explained as his crow vanished through a magic circle.
"And my kitty can put up barriers and such and detect when enemies approach our territory." Kuroka explained as her black cat vanished through a magic circle. "When the time comes, you will get your own familiar. Nya."
"I see, sounds somewhat useful. So, when do I get one?" Bob questioned as he wanted to do less work as possible.
"In about a month from now I think." Itachi replied as Kuroka prepared a magic circle for them to teleport with to the underworld. "Now let's introduce you to your new home."
"And you swear that this is not a trick, right?" Bob said and Itachi nodded with a friendly smile, and the frail little boy stepped into the magic circle. And then in a flash of light they were inside of a big castle, the Sitri castle. "Where are we?"
"The Sitri castle. Look outside." Itachi said pointing to the window, Bob did just that and looked out to see that the sky was purple.
"Wow, so this is the underworld… not really what I was expecting at all…" Bob uttered in awe thinking that the underworld would be well fire and such.
"Onii-sama, Kuroka, I see you have returned." Sona said was she was standing on the second floor looking down on them.
"Sona, I am home." Itachi said with a little smile at his younger sister.
"And who might he be?" Sona asked as she looked over at Bob whom bowed politely and nervously.
"M-My name is Bob, miss Sona. I am sir Itachi's pawn." Bob replied politely while looking a little taken aback at Sona.
"Oh, so you have a new peerage member? Well then welcome to the household of Sitri, Bob." Sona greeted with a small smile on her lips before she walked away as she had something to do.
"That was your sister?" Bob asked looking at the spot where Sona once stood.
"That was my younger twin sister yes, Sona Sitri, the Second Heir of the household." Itachi replied and Bob then remembered that Itachi mentioned having sisters.
"Then what about your other sister?" Bob questioned.
"My older sister, Serafall, is currently the Maou Leviathan, she's one of the Four Great Satans, which is why I'm the heir of the household since once you become a Maou you lose the right to inherit your household." Itachi replied and Bob looked shocked at the mentioning that Itachi's older sister was such an important person.
"Wait, there's more than one Satan?" Bob questioned in confusion.
"Yes, there is Lucifer, whom is the leader, Beelzebub, Leviathan and Asmodeus. They aren't the original ones though as they died in the last war we had with the angels and fallen angels." Itachi replied.
"Wait, aren't fallen angels the same as devils?" Bob questioned looking even more confused.
"No far from it, they are angels cast out of heaven from God, but they still want to serve God by disposing of us and try and take control over the Underworld, while the angels are sent from God to wipe us out, so it's a two-front battle for us. Well not now since the war is over and everything." Itachi explained and Bob seemed to understand it, well mostly anyway.
"H-Hey, Itachi… You said a person is born with my ability every century, right?" Bob asked looking like he was in deep thought. "And if so, will they still be born with the power even if I am alive?"
"Yes, they would be born with it even with you alive." Itachi replied.
"Th-Then, I will find them and make them apart of my peerage when I become a high-class devil, so that I can help them!" Bob said with a determined look on his little cute face.
Itachi smiled. "That is a good dream. Welcome to your new life as a devil, Bob."
That's the end for now!
I have introduced Bob, the Sin of Sloth. His title will be the Grizzly Sin of Sloth. Bob's ability is Storage Magic, the more he sleeps the more energy his body stores up, but that stored up energy only lasts for the rest of the day once he has used it up he will have to sleep more. His maximum limit is his 23-hour state, in that form he becomes extremely powerful and easily surpasses Kuroka and reaches Ultimate Class level at least, when he was human anyway, now that he is a devil his 23-hour state will be much stronger. But this form only lasts for one hour and then 24 hours have passed. So, if he has slept for 10 hours, the form will last for 14 hours, and if he sleeps for 15 hours it would last for 9 hours etc. Now this power is the main reason Bob gains the title of the Sin of Sloth, considering he has to sleep for almost the whole day to use his power. In his frail state he will be extremely polite, lazy and nervous, while as when he has slept no matter for how long he becomes more confident in himself and more energetic.
And if Itachi had used his sharingan to put Bob in an illusion he would have won the fight faster, but he promised to fight fair and square, plus he wanted to test out how strong Bob was. I'm planning on Bob being the second strongest Itachi will have in his peerage, well when he has slept for 23 hours at least, he will be the best out of all of them when it comes to brute strength. And in the next chapter I will introduce the next Sin.
Also, I wanted to save this question until I had actually introduced Bob, but who should he be paired up with? (he should have at least one girl)
And one more thing, some of you guys have been asking me to place some other characters for the Sin of Greed. So, I have decided to do this. If you can find a character from an anime or cartoon that is from the 21-century time period, because I want Itachi to be the only character granted a second chance, that fits the title for the Sin of Greed, and give me a good explanation why this character should be the Sin of Greed, then I will consider replacing Damian with that character. So, PM me or review.
Anyway, leave a review!
-Later!
(respond to reviews)
nickclause: Thanks!
raghavanandnath2003: Thanks!
qunbulah: Don't worry I will continue this story, although I have to say this Itachi's Susano'o doesn't have a bow and arrow that would be Sasuke's, Itachi's Susano'o is more of a sword wielding type. And I can't really imagine a fem Issei, sorry.
frankieu: Thanks, and your welcome.
merendinoemiliano: Thanks, and hope it was good.
andresskorskiruiz: Thanks!
BalthazarTheAngel: Thanks!
BlackStarBlake1: Thanks!
Shirosaki345: Thanks!
Shu Ouma GC: Thanks, and hmm, maybe he can find a way around it.
Mr. Haziq: True that!
Tsukoblue: Sorry, but the decision has been made.
ronlol2: Thanks!
kynan99: Your welcome!
Tobias27: Well from my understanding one needs to reach a certain age before they can participate in the Rating Games. So, the confrontation between Itachi and Raiser could be during the canon timeline.
kradyus: I don't think anyone needs to take her place in Vali's group, actually, hmm, we'll see what happens.
Morregen: My reasoning for picking the peerage as I did, is because I want Itachi's peerage to all be from the 21st century, and finding anime characters that are from said century, and fit the sins would be difficult to find, which is why I created some OC's. And because I want the reincarnated thing to be unique to Itachi only. Besides now Lust and Sloth are definitely taken seeing as I have introduced them.
Shadic21: Thanks!
SinfullKiss: The name Bob is short for Bobby or Robert, which one sounds best? Besides I think it sounds funny! "I am of the Seven Deadly Sins, the Sin of Sloth, names Bob."
That one Kitsune: Thanks, and although Itachi revealing his past for everyone can make for a good chapter or two, I think I won't do it in this fic. And for my "The Demon Eyes of Fairy Tail" story the pairing is only Itachi x Mirajane.
The Storm Master 567: Thanks, and although Law is an interesting character, he is from a pirate age, the world of dxd takes place in a modern age. And I want all of Itachi's peerage members to be from the modern age.
Shadowdragondanny: Glad to hear it!
pepticbrute117: Thanks, Itachi is not exactly the expert on romance, but when the situation calls for it he will show affection in his own way.
desdelor97: Thanks!
GunBlade2018: Thanks!
Devilscreed: Thanks, and don't worry I didn't find it offensive or anything, looked at it as more helpful advice.
im just saying: I see, well he could try, we'll see.
Guest: Thanks!
Guest: Thanks! And although they do, I still want the reincarnation thing to be unique to Itachi only. And unlike Itachi Shisui hasn't done anything that the mysterious hooded figure that brought Itachi back to life, would see as a reason for him deserving a second chance and rather just let him rest in peace.
OriginalSBH: Look, I know not a lot of people don't like OC's, but I'm trying to make every peerage member Itachi has to be from the time period dxd is set in. Which is why Whitebeard himself won't work because he is from a pirate age, however since pirates used to exist I can easily say Whitebeard has a descendant in the current time period.
Guest: I see, well I'll try to make it look "cleaner" with the paragraphs. And thanks!
LMaltez: Already talked about it through PM, no need to say the same thing twice!
VegetaUchiha: Figured she had grown strong enough to get a queen, so your welcome.
seant5054: I believe you have asked me this before, and I will consider it, but at the moment I have a little too much on the table, so it might take a long time until I get to it. And sorry, but I prefer Grayfia to stay with Sirzechs.
Senritran19: Sorry but I prefer Grayfia to stay with Sirzechs.
NightRogue00: Jeez, a lot of you want Grayfia to be with Itachi huh, well sorry but I prefer her with Sirzechs, I never even liked that she gained a thing for Issei in the canon story.
NatsuErzaDragneelSusanoo: Thanks, and no I won't.
trollzor69: Thanks!
Bloodline Purger: Really? I think there is plenty of dialogue in the story. I will see what I can do though.
Mile De: Thanks! And Eto fits for a knight because she has speed honestly, and her Kagune could be used as blades and such. And don't worry for Itachi's harem I won't give him that many, he will have less then 10, so 6, 7, 8 or 9.
RED3YES: Not until now, although I have a lot of other stories planned so it would take a long time until I could get to work on something like that.
Red Raven 007: Hmm, that's true, I will think about it. By the way have you noticed that I have updated "The Demon Eyes of Fairy Tail" haven't seen you review there in like two chapters.
