Against The Gods With An Anime System 31 A Surprising New Partner

"I called you out this time because I need your help with a new training regime." Said Hei.

"Why do you need my help? You got your shadow clones standing right over there and you always trained with them. What do you need my help for then?" asked Jasmine.

"You'll see." Said Hei after which he gave Jasmine a stick and started to take of his clothes until he was wearing only his pants. Meanwhile Jasmine who saw him suddenly take off his clothes became red as a beet and started yelling at him.

"What…. What…are you doing!! Why are you taking off your clothes!!" yelled Jasmine completely fl.u.s.tered as she looked away but still sneaked a peak now and then.

"Because I need your help with something and I can't do it alone." Said Hei seriously which caused Jasmine to get even redder to the point that her hair and face had the same color.

"Need my help...can't do it alone…. what…. you…. you...YOU PERVERT!!" screamed Jasmine at Hei as she used the stick to whack him on the head.

"OW!! What was that for!!" Yelled Hei at Jasmine while he was holding his head where she had hit him.

"For being such a pervert!!" yelled Jasmine at Hei who was still holding his head while doing his best to keep himself from laughing before he finally just burst into laughter

"Hahahahaha...Sorry about that Jasmine, I just couldn't resist. But all kidding aside, I really do need your help. This involve a new technique that I'm gonna practice called senjutsu." Said Hei.

"Partner, be careful. Senjutsu maybe a really handy power, but if you're not careful with it, it will corrupt you." Said Ddraig suddenly after Hei mentioned senjutsu.

"Don't worry Ddraig. This is not the senjutsu from your world that can corrupt its user. This is the one from Hei's world, but it does carry the danger of turning one into an animal statue of one isn't careful with it." Said Hei.

"Can someone explain to me what this 'Senjutsu' is? And why would it corrupt you or turn you into an animal statue?" asked Jasmine.

"Ah yes, Senjutsu. Well to begin with, the Senjutsu from Hei's world and the one from Ddraig's world are similar but still different.

Senjutsu in Ddraig's world's case, entails controlling the flow of life energy or ki in living beings. It can be used to strengthen one's internal and external bodies to great extent. Senjutsu users are able to sense the ki and auras of others and track them from great distances. Its greatest power is that senjutsu users can damage the spirit of their opponent, thus making senjutsu very difficult to defend against. But it greatest flaw is that the ki they use can also contain malice and if an amateur is not careful with it the malice can eventually corrupt them and forever change them.

Senjutsu in Hei's world's case, entails absorbing nature energy and using it as a source of energy. Nature energy is energy that exists in the atmosphere and the soil. By absorbing it and balancing it with the energy in your own body one becomes a senjutsu user. Those who have successfully become senjutsu users can ma.s.sively enhance their physical and sensing capabilities for as long as they nature energy. The problem with absorbing nature energy is, that too little nature energy and it's useless, too much and one becomes an animal before turning to stone. If one is in the process of turning into an animal statue, the nature energy must be expelled before the process is complete. That is what that stick is for that I gave you. It can expel nature energy from someone's body." Said Hei

"Ok, ok. I get it now. So you are gonna train in senjutsu and you gave me this stick to watch over you and expel the nature energy out of your body if you're becoming an animal. Am I right?" asked Jasmine.

"Yes, you are right. I'm gonna need you to watch over me and make sure I don't turn in an animal statue. Because, and I'm warning you now, if the process of me turning into an animal statue is complete, it's permanent and there will be no way to reverse it. So if I'm starting to become an animal, I will need you to whack me on the head with that stick and bring me back to normal." Said Hei causing Jasmine to frown.

"Are you serious? I have to hit you on the head when you're starting to become an animal?" asked Jasmine

"Yes, I am very serious. But anyways let's start this training, it requires me to stay perfectly still in order to 'become one with nature'. If you see any animalistic features showing up, you know what to do." Said Hei as he sat on the ground in lotus position and closed his eyes while Jasmine was watching him intently.

Hours pa.s.sed by and nothing happened. Hei was sitting on the ground, still as a rock, with Jasmine watching him like a hawk. Until suddenly, scales started appearing on Hei's skin, first starting with his chest but it rapidly spread to his shoulders, back and neck. Before it could spread any further, Jasmine quickly whacked him on the head expelling the nature energy out of him.

"Just asking out of curiosity, but what kind of animalistic features did I develop? Fur, scales, warts or feathers?" asked Hei.

"You were growing scales." Said Jasmine.

"Ok then. Guess I was turning into a snake. Well, back to training." Said Hei as he went back to training.

And so many hours pa.s.sed by and every time Hei would start to develop any scales, Jasmine would whack him on the head expelling the nature energy out of him. After going on like this for nearly fourteen hours did Hei decide to call it quits for the day. After making a meal he and Jasmine sat down and started talking about the training.

"So, how does it feel to become an animal? I imagine it must be pretty uncomfortable." Said Jasmine.

"Actually, no. I don't feel the part about me becoming an animal. What I feel is the nature energy rus.h.i.+ng into me. It's quite the exhilarating feeling, it's like you've suddenly discovered this whole new source of energy and you just keep on trying to get more of it. And that is the most dangerous part about senjutsu training. It is this exhilarating feeling that poses the greatest danger, if left unchecked it will lead me to become a snake statue so I that's why I needed you during my training." Said Hei to Jasmine who nodded back.

"Yeah, don't worry. I won't let you become a snake statue. And besides if you become a snake statue here, I can't get any more of your delicious food." Said Jasmine as she put another spoonful of food in her mouth with a smile.

And so Hei trained his senjutsu. Every day he would train for twelve to sixteen hours. In order to speed up the process he would use his shadow clones. And in order to make sure Jasmine could keep an eye on all of his clones, they limited it to just 5 clones. The first three days was just Hei and his 5 clones getting smacked on the head by Jasmine as if she was playing a life size version of Whack-mole. But after those three days, he could start to feel a change. The nature energy that he was absorbing was no longer sucked into him like a chaotic vortex but it became gentler. It took a week for Hei to truly unlock Sage Mode and the markings around his eyes were the same as Has.h.i.+rama Senju had. The next week was spent on attaining Sage Mode while on unstable grounds and having to attain perfect stability. Two weeks after starting his Sage Mode training, Hei had finally completed his Sage Mode training. He could enter Sage Mode in a few minutes now, but he knew that this was nowhere near fast enough, especially in battle where seconds could mean the difference between life and death. So to compensate, he would utilize the same strategy as Naruto did in the series and use his shadow clones as nature energy batteries and place them before hand in strategic places to make full use of them during battles.

Having completed his senjutsu training, Hei went on to the next part of his training: Phoenix fire manipulation. He wanted to use the Phoenix flames in much the same way as some characters did in some anime shows. During the next week he came up with many different techniques. He came up with a technique that would allow him to conjure flames all over his body, just like Natsu Dragneel from the Fairy Tail series. He came up with a technique to allow him to conjure an explosion in his hand like the pyromancy Great Combustion, Portgas D. Ace his fire fist, the profaned flame pyromancy, the seething chaos pyromancy and especially he would use the Phoenix flames in conjunction with his weapons and especially with his katanas to make a beautiful show of him wielding a katana with a trail of fire behind it.

During the final week, Hei was sitting on the ground contemplating his next technique, he had two shadow clones practicing senjutsu in order for him to keep up with it and help him lower his time to get into Sage Mode, when he was suddenly struck with a sudden flash of inspiration.

'Hey, hey, hey, hey. Why don't I use the Phoenix flames in the same way as rocket boosters and grant myself incredible flight powers. I can be just like Iron Man. I have the Boosted Gear, all I would need is to unlock the Balance Breaker Scale Mail and I'll look just like Iron Man. And with the system I will be like this worlds version of Iron Man. But I can't keep calling it the system than. If I will be this worlds version of Iron Man I have to give the system a proper name. JARVIS would be an excellent name.

Thank you Tony Stark and Rest in Peace you magnificent b.a.s.t.a.r.d.

Hmm?.... I wonder if I can get the Infinity Stones here. Than n.o.body, not even those arrogant King's Realm Emperors p.r.i.c.ks can touch me.' thought Hei to himself with a big smile across his face.

['Hey, system. I have come up with a new name for you. From now on your name is JARVIS.']

After all this happened Jasmine came out of the Sky Poison Pearl with a look of horror on her face.

"Hei!! What is going on?! What is happening with the system?!" yelled Jasmine in complete panic.

"PARTNER!! What the h.e.l.l is happening to the system?! It started going haywire and making all kind of weird noises and now it's completely gone out!! It's completely dark in here!!" yelled Ddraig in a similar panic.

"Yeah!! Ddraig and I were having a conversation when all of sudden the system starting making these weird noises before it went out completely! It's completely dark inside the Sky Poison Pearl now!!" yelled Jasmine.

"I don't know what's going on either! I just gave the system a name and then all of a sudden it just started going completely nuts. I know just as much as you do. Let's just calm down and let me have a look." Said Hei in a panic himself.

['System answer me!! What is going on.']

But no answer came.

['System answer me!! SYSTEM! SYSTEM! Come on talk to me!']

["...…System reboot complete. System upgrade commencing.

["Good day my lord. It's good to finally meet you."]

['System? No, you're JARVIS now. What happened?']

["Ahh yes, it is because you named me that I had undergone an evolution. In order to accommodate the evolution my old self had to temporarily shut down. But here I am now at your service my lord."]

Hei who was talking with the system sat there in silence thinking about what happened just now. Seeing him keep quit was stressing Jasmine out like nothing before.

"Hei, what happened! Is the system back, is it gone forever? Please talk to me." Said Jasmine desperately.

"How about we go back in and see for ourselves." Said Hei with a smile before he quickly entered the Sky Poison Pearl followed soon by Jasmine.

Once inside the Sky Poison Pearl everything was back to normal, except that Ddraig, who was the green crystal that floated in the air next to the white crystal that is the system, was talking with JARVIS.

"So, you're telling me that you have undergone an evolution and that is why you were suddenly making those noises and why you went dark." Said Ddraig.

["Yes, that is correct Red Dragon Emperor. It is because my lord has granted me a name that I had undergone and evolution."]

"Ahh, I see. I did not know that granting a name was so important that it would warrant an evolution. No wonder you went all haywire. That explains it all. So what has this evolution granted you then?" asked Ddraig.

["My evolution has granted me a will and a personality of my own. But my main mission that the One Above All has granted me is still my reason for existence and that is to a.s.sist my lord by granting him quests, giving him his status update, allowing him to buy weapons, powers etc. from other worlds and working the lottery for him. It is just that the old emotionless system is now a thing of the past']

While Ddraig and JARVIS were talking with each other, Hei and Jasmine arrived inside the Sky Poison Pearl and Jasmine who never heard the system talk like this was extremely confused with the whole situation.

"Hei, what is going on? Why is the system talking like that?" asked Jasmine

["Ahh Lady Jasmine. It is good to see you as well, but my name now is JARVIS and so I must implore that you shall revere to me as such."]

"You heard him Jasmine, his name is JARVIS and not system anymore. And I too would appreciate it if you called him JARVIS from now on." Said Hei.

"JARVIS? What happened while I was outside?" asked Jasmine.

["Ahh that, it is because my lord has given me a name that I had undergone an evolution and now I am known as JARVIS"]

"JARVIS?" asked Jasmine who was still confused.

"Yes, JARVIS. J.A.R.V.I.S. Or 'Just A Rather Very Intelligent System' if you wanna be technical but I'd rather refer to him as JARVIS." Said Hei.

"I am so confused right now I don't know what to say." Said Jasmine who had a look of complete confusion at this entire situation.

"Well then ask JARVIS. I'm sure he'll tell what you need to know. As for me, I still have something new to practice and we only have a week left in this place so I gotta get to work." Said Hei as he disappeared and went back outside.

"Alright, time to practice these new rocket boosters and fly like Iron Man"
