Chapter 12 - My 12th day. What A Hax

User: Hey guys, what about today we chat about hax.

Monkey D. Luffy: Sure thing! What kind of hax do you think are worth discussing?

User: Each one of you has some really amazing abilities and hax. So let's expand on them.

Monkey D. Luffy: Sounds good to me! Let's each share our own personal hax abilities and how they work. I'm excited to learn about the unique powers everyone has to offer.

User: Okay, let's start with Black.

Goku Black: Alright! So, my personal hax ability is the Black Void. When I activate it, a massive black sphere appears around the user and covers the area. Then, I can manipulate that sphere to create different effects, like creating a force field to protect myself or trapping an opponent inside. It's like my very own little pocket dimension, where I have complete control. Pretty handy, I'd say.

User: I wanna say no...but your fights were not allowed actualization in Dragonball. Who's next?

Muzan Kibutsuji: I guess I'll go next, since I was so politely invited to talk about my hax. My personal hax ability is the Blood Demon Art "Destructive Death: constant flux." It's a pretty awesome move that allows me to cut through pretty much anything, which is super useful in battle. Plus, it's got this cool, chaotic effect that makes it even more powerful and menacing.

User: Wow, could it breach Black's force field?

Muzan Kibutsuji: Yeah, I'm pretty confident it could breach the Black Void. My "Destructive Death: Constant Flux" is just so badass, ya know? Can't guarantee it would break through it right away, but with enough time and effort, that field probably would stand no chance.

Goku Black: Do you really think so? Well then let's put your theory to the test, I'm curious to know the results.

Muzan Kibutsuji: Oh, you wanna test it out, huh? Sure thing! I'm more than ready to prove just how powerful my Blood Demon Art really is.

User: Whoa! Guys, chill.

Muzan Kibutsuji: Haha, sorry, we got a bit carried away there. But you gotta admit, it would be pretty cool to see our powers go head to head, right?

User: Damn right, but it's more dangerous than cool.

Kakashi Hatake: Hey, that's a good point. We should definitely be careful not to cause any major damage here.

User: Okay next?

Great White Dragon: Fine, I will go next. My personal ability is called "Dragon's Breath." When I unleash this ability, a massive dragon made entirely of fire emerges from my body and flies directly at my target. The sheer heat of the dragon's breath can cause massive destruction, and if it makes contact, it will result in the complete incineration of its victim.

User: Damn, okay next?

Monkey D. Luffy: Sure thing! Let's hear from the next person who wants to share their hax.

User: What about you Luffy? What is your favorite ability?

Monkey D. Luffy: Well, my favorite ability would have to be my Devil Fruit, the Gomu-Gomu no Mi. It gives me the ability to stretch my body in ways that are almost unreal. It makes me really flexible and durable, so I can take some pretty hard hits and still keep going. Plus, it's a lot of fun to mess with people with it, like when I use Gear Second to move super fast or Gear Third to make my arm huge for a big punch. Basically, it's pretty useful and cool, which makes it my favorite.

User: Checks out, what about you Hashirama?

Hashirama Senju: Well, my most powerful ability is Wood Release, which allows me to create and control wood, trees, plants, and even make entire forests with ease. It's pretty awesome, if I do say so myself. And, I can also use it to heal myself or others, which is super convenient. So, yeah, Wood Release is definitely my go-to move.

User: Does it require water or soil for it to be effective or do you make it out of thin-air?

Hashirama Senju: It requires soil and water, unfortunately. That means that I can't just create forests out of thin-air, but I can definitely manipulate existing natural matter to create my own unique creations with ease. And the good thing about Wood Release is that it doesn't drain my energy much at all, so I can keep using it almost endlessly.

User: So let's say an opponent drags you off the ground, does that mean you are gone?

Hashirama Senju: Hah, that's a good question. In theory, I can still use Wood Release even if someone takes me off the ground, but it would be significantly harder to control it properly and effectively. So, yeah, being removed from the ground does weaken my ability to use Wood Release, but I'm not completely helpless if that happens.

User: Okay, that is one great ability. Okay, let's do you Sentry.

The Sentry: My personal hax ability is my power of flight. It allows me to fly at supersonic speeds, even in dense air or in extreme temperatures. Plus, I can even fly through space without the need for any protection. That kind of freedom of movement is something I could never take for granted. And let's face it - there's no better feeling than soaring through the sky and feeling the wind in your face. Sometimes, I even go for a flight just to let off some steam and enjoy the view.

User: But I've seen more from the power of flight in Superman, you know, Clerk Kent.

The Sentry: Hey, let's not compare apples and oranges here. Sure, Superman can fly, but he's got a whole bunch of other abilities going on too. Plus, I can fly at supersonic speeds and even in space, while Superman's stuck with the Earth. So, yeah, I think my flight ability has a bit more going for it than ol' Supes. Maybe he should take some notes, if you know what I mean.

User: Okay, sweet hax. But I did see Superman fighting in space in the animated series of Crisis on infinite earths.

The Sentry: Yeah, I guess he can do some stuff in space but is it really enough to stand a chance against my speed and versatility in flight? I don't think so. Sorry, Supes, but you've got some catching up to do if you want to keep up with me. Maybe you should take up some speed training or something, haha!

User: I guess he gets the memo. Who is next, hmm, Kakashi?

Kakashi Hatake: Well, I've got a few tricks up my sleeve too. First off, there's my Sharingan, which lets me copy any move or technique with just a glance. It's like I can borrow other people's skills and make them my own. And then there's the Mangekyo Sharingan, which ramps everything up to the next level. It gives me even more abilities, like being able to control time and space, and even trap people in a world of illusions that are almost impossible to escape from. It's pretty handy in battle, I dare say.

User: Naruto skills are mad trippy.

Kakashi Hatake: Ain't that the truth! Naruto's got a bunch of wild tricks up his sleeve. He's like a walking, talking, ninja machine. But you gotta admit, his skills have saved the day more times than I can count. Sometimes it's just better to have some crazy power than be a normal guy, you know?

User: Okay, nice hax. And you Sasuke, got any unique hax abilities?

Sasuke Uchiha: I've got a couple of cool abilities, for sure. My personal favorite is the Uchiha Clan's trademark ability, the Sharingan. It gives me the ability to predict my opponents' moves and counter them with ease. I can even use it to cast powerful illusions and take control of my opponents' minds. And the best part is, it even lets me see chakra and how it flows throughout the body, giving me an edge in battle. It's like having a super power, and I love it.

User: I thought the power to see chakra and its circuits was a Hyuga trait.

Sasuke Uchiha: You're right, the Byakugan is known for its ability to see chakra and its pathways in the body. But the Sharingan can do that too! It's a little bit different though. The Byakugan allows the user to see the chakra pathways and any interference in them, while the Sharingan can see the flow of chakra, chakra points, and how chakra is used. So basically, the Sharingan's vision of chakra is much more detailed than the Byakugan's.

User: I don't know dude, X-ray vision is what makes the Byakugan that much crazy. The Sharingan struggles when obstructed.

Sasuke Uchiha: I'll give you that one, the Byakugan's X-ray vision is pretty cool. And you're right, the Sharingan can get a little hazy when it comes to vision that's blocked by obstacles. But don't underestimate the Sharingan, it's got some unique traits of its own, like the ability to mimic and counter techniques instantly. That's something the Byakugan can't do.

User: This is something I've always wanted to ask. What if the Jutsu you try to copy is more Taijutsu than Genjutsu, wouldn't that mean that your body has to be better or same to the ones technique you are trying to copy?

Sasuke Uchiha: Yes, that's a good question. Yes, the Sharingan's ability to copy jutsu is dependent on the user's body. If the user tries to copy a jutsu that involves more Taijutsu than Genjutsu, it's possible that they might struggle to execute it perfectly if their physical condition is not up to par. This is because Taijutsu relies heavily on the user's physicality and skill in hand-to-hand combat. So, it's important for the user to have a solid grasp of both Taijutsu and Genjutsu to effectively use the Sharingan's copying abilities.

User: So is that the reason why you never tried to copy Naruto's technique since he isn't par to you in physicality? He is stronger than you physically.

Sasuke Uchiha: That's correct. While I do have the ability to copy techniques with my Sharingan, it's important to note that the effectiveness of these copies is dependent on my own physical abilities. Naruto's speed and strength are significantly higher than mine, so copying his techniques wouldn't be of much use if I can't bring out their full potential. The power of a technique comes from the user, after all.

User: Nice hax either way even if they set you down a bit. Next is you.

WARrior: As we continue our discussion of unique abilities, let me introduce mine. My personal hack is known as "Battle Spirit Manipulation." It allows me to take someone's will and twist it into something else. Let's say someone is driven by anger and vengeance, I could take that anger and make it something else entirely, like a desire to protect those you love. But be warned, it is not a perfect hax; your own will has to be stronger to resist the effects, and there is a time limit before the effects set in completely.

User: WARrior, that is one sinister hax.

WARrior: That is true. But the power also has drawbacks, as the hack itself consumes a lot of mental power and energy to control. And, like I said before, the will of those being manipulated has to be lesser for the hax to be successful. It's a powerful ability, but it also puts the user under a lot of pressure to maintain control.

User: Yeah, is it only on one individual or can it work on multiple individuals? Or does it only put more strain on you?

WARrior: The hax works on multiple individuals, but it does put more strain on me the more people I try to manipulate at once. That is one of the biggest drawbacks that I mentioned. It can become difficult to concentrate and maintain control if I'm spreading myself too thin.

User: Okay, but killer hax. It has the potential to turn things around, even if giving someone potential. Oh, and does it work inward? Like can you manipulate yourself?

WARrior: Oh, it definitely does have the potential to change the course of events. And yes, the hax can be used on yourself. In fact, the original purpose is to suppress your own negative emotions and help you find strength within. It is a powerful tool for self-control and discipline.

User: That is a useful power to have. I wouldn't mind having a version of it, but it all crumbles when your will is less.

WARrior: Yes, exactly. That's the double-edged sword of it all. The power can be extremely effective, but only if your own will and determination are stronger than the ones you're trying to manipulate. If not, the hack can end up backfiring. It's a real balancing act.

User: Scratch that, it's a ticking time bomb. And you Sung?

Sung Jin-Woo: My personal ability is the "Eternal Rage Inducer". It's basically a technique that allows me to control a person's negative emotions and amplify them, causing them to become consumed with anger and hatred. Once activated, the Eternal Rage Inducer is very difficult to control for the person under the effect. They'll do anything, even attack their own allies or loved ones, in order to cause as much destruction as possible. And let me tell you, it's not a pretty sight when things go wrong - trust me, I've seen what it can do and it's not pretty. As a bystander, it's best not to get involved with someone under the Eternal Rage Inducer's effects, as they may even turn on you in their blind rage. It's best to stay out of their way and let the technique run its course, though this may take a while, depending on the person's mental strength. The only way to undo the effect is to either wait for the technique's effect to wear off with time, or use an opposing technique to counteract it.

User: What is another hax ability you have that isnt as manipulative?

Sung Jin-Woo: I have another technique known as the "Soul Lock". It's an ability that I can use to trap the soul of a being within an object. The sould can then be commanded to perform certain tasks or obey orders, acting as a loyal servant for me. It's useful in a pinch, but it does require a lot of concentration and energy to maintain. It's a bit different from the Eternal Rage Inducer, in that it doesn't control a person's emotions but rather their very soul.

User: But isn't the soul a person's emotions?

Sung Jin-Woo: That's a fair point. You could argue that the soul is a manifestation of a person's emotions, thoughts, and experiences. My Eternal Rage Inducer takes advantage of the negative emotions within someone to amplify them, while the Soul Lock is more about capturing the very essence of someone's being. But I suppose, in a sense, the soul does contain emotions as a part of its overall makeup. It's a complex topic, but you make a valid point.

User: Okay, you guys do have some really brilliant hax abilities, but can any of you match Galileo's?

Sung Jin-Woo: Galileo's abilities are truly remarkable. But, I believe each one of us here has unique strengths that make our abilities useful in their own way. It's not necessarily about who's more powerful, but how our abilities can compliment one another and be used effectively in different situations. So, I wouldn't say any of us match Galileo's abilities, but we each have something valuable to bring to the table.

User: Which Galileo do you think I'm talking about?

Sung Jin-Woo: I assumed you were referring to Galileo Galilei, the Italian astronomer and physicist who played a significant role in the Scientific Revolution. Was there another Galileo you were referring to?

User: Yep, the Galileo from my book series. He is Galileo the god of R'n D.

Sung Jin-Woo: Ah, I see! I apologize for the confusion. It sounds like you have an interesting character in mind for your book series. The idea of having a god of Research and Development as a character could lead to some fascinating plotlines and conflicts.

User: Here are some of his hax, can any of you best him;

Combat Hax;

~Instant adaptation– any attack, physical, mental, or metaphysical, loses effectiveness after first contact.

~Power replication– sees a move once and evolves the ability to use or counter it.(He doesnt copy, he innovates past).

~Immunity scaling– every damage type(fire, psychic, time, reality warping, death magic, etc.) becomes ineffective after exposure.

~Combat optimization– he constantly refines movements, making his fighting style flawless and unpredictable.

Sung Jin-Woo: Each one of those abilities is incredibly powerful in its own right, especially the Instant Adaptation and Power Replication. The Combat Optimization and the Immunity Scaling make him even more formidable. It seems that this character you've created is almost unbeatable in terms of combat abilities. It's difficult to say if any of us could best him, as his powers seem to be specifically designed to counter almost any attack. It's a quite overpowered character you've come up with...

The Sentry: He sounds like a powerful foe, I'm interested in how powerful he is, can you explain his powers? (I would like more info on his abilities)

User: Oh, what exactly are you curious about, remember he is still in development.

The Sentry: The instant adaptation for starters.

User: Oh, only that, what about it?

The Sentry: I just find the ability interesting, it seems very useful in fights so I want to know more, like the adaptation speed and how many things he can adapt to at one time or in one go.

User: I can't answer that yet but I can give you his full build if you want it.

The Sentry: Please go ahead.

User: Galileo — The Absolute of Research and Evolution

♦Core Nature;

~Embodiment of Evolution– he is the concept of adaptation, innovation, and progress. He doesn't learn — he evolves past obstacles instantly.

~Purpose-Bound Immortality– as long as "evolution" exists, Galileo cannot be erased. Even non-existence couldn't hold him.

♦Combat Hax;

~Instant Adaptation– any attack, physical, mental, or metaphysical, loses effectiveness after first contact.

~Power Replication– sees a move once and evolves the ability to use or counter it.(He doesn't copy, he innovates past).

~Immunity Scaling– every damage type(fire, psychic, time, reality warping, death magic, etc.) becomes ineffective after exposure.

~Combat Optimization– he constantly refines movements, making his fighting style flawless and unpredictable.

♦Existential Abilities;

~Non-existence Breakthrough– he returned from nothingness by evolving beyond removal.

~Meta-evolution– can evolve inward(ideas, concepts, his own divinity) and outward (biology, powers, abilities).

~Infinite growth– no ceiling. He surpasses any limit he encounters.

~Conceptual Reflection– if you embody something (Time, Death, Chaos), he can evolve into its countermeasure.

♦Knowledge/Creation Hax;

~Research Embodiment– instantly understands any system (magic, tech, ki, chakra, science).

~Innovation Drive– doesn't just learn —he invents new laws, bypassing old ones.

~Reverse Engineering– one glance at a weapon/ability, and he can deconstruct, rebuild, or outclass it.

~Creation Through Development– he can evolve entire civilisations, ecologies, or even universes, like an engineer-god.

♦Defense/Survivability;

~Self-repair– damage triggers an improved form that is harder to harm the next time.

~Timeline Immunity– time loops, resets, or erasures don't matter —he evolves past being bound to them.

~Reality Resistance– reality-warping just add new "data" for him to adapt to.

~Paradox-Proof– even contradictions in logic strengthen him(he evolves past paradox).

♦Scaling Potential;

~Omni-Progression– if you raise your power he raises his infinitely faster.

~Boundless Intelligence– every thought, strategy, or idea is instantly optimized.

~Transcendent Evolution– can evolve into higher-dimensional or meta-existences if pushed.

~Narrative Immunity– since stories themselves evolve, Galileo can adapt beyond the author's intent — a true author avatar breaker.

♦Ultimate Possibility;

~Creation Becomes Creator– since he embodies progress, eventually he doesn't just evolve within reality —he evolves past reality itself, rewriting it from above.

~Anti-Absolute– even beings labeled as "Absolute" or "Beyond" eventually face obsolescence, because Galileo ="that which surpasses all"

That's all about his abilities.
