The Strange Cat from Fuuto

It has been rapidly rising upwards without any sign of stopping.

The defeated dragon, its fists glowing with a molten, fiery light, launched a frenzied attack on Iggy, each punch landing squarely on Iggy's body.

Iggy spread his arms and let the defeated dragon attack him, while the dark cracks on his chest flashed rapidly.

"Erah, erah, erah...."

Like a fishmonger possessed by a dragon, he roared incessantly, each punch infused with his intense emotions.

"Eurah!!"

The defeated dragon, who had just landed a punch on Iggy's face, was trembling with excitement. He was breathing heavily as he looked at Iggy, whom he had hit.

"Oh..."

With a cold laugh, Iggy grabbed the defeated dragon's fist, twisted his wrist, and locked it in a grip.

"Mudada!"

"Truly, poor...weak."

Iggy sneered as he slowly uttered a sentence, grabbed his arm and flung him upwards with force. The defeated dragon, who was thrown into the air against his will, rose to a certain height and began to fall rapidly.

Iggy watched as the defeated dragon, which he had thrown away, slowly hooked onto the pull ring of the driver on his waist and pulled it outward with force.

"Mad!!"

Energy was channeled into Iggy's right foot; the jet-black energy converged into Iggy's right foot through the energy channels of the energy suit.

Inky black energy flames roared on Iggy's right calf. Just then, the defeated dragon also landed.

"Kick!!"

A hoarse, sinister song rang out, and Iggy turned sharply, whipping out with his leg.

"Whoosh!"

With a loud crack as its whip leg struck the air, the defeated dragon fell from the sky and crashed straight into Iggy's whip leg.

It looked as if the defeated dragon had run into it on its own.

"boom!"

Like a soccer ball being powerfully shot, the defeated dragon was sent flying by Iggy's whip kick, flying more than ten meters before crashing through the walls on both sides of the street and embedding itself in the wall of a house.

Maintaining his side kick, Iggy slowly retracted his right leg, reached out and patted his calf to brush away non-existent dust.

Iggy glanced at the rabbit, then leaped onto the ground, becoming a blur as he swiftly vanished.

"We lost again!"

The rabbit, having reverted to his original form, lay slumped on the ground, his face covered in gashes. He raised his arm to cover his face and sighed, "What kind of organization is Faust anyway!"

........

Faust Base.

Experimental hall.

"Knock knock knock..."

With heavy footsteps, Iggy walked into the experimental hall, looking around. As soon as he entered, all the experimenters stopped what they were doing.

One of them stammered, "Reborn...sir?"

"Oh!"

The honest man sitting on the sofa immediately stood up: "Reborn?"

"You're still alive?!"

"laugh...."

With a snort, Iggy went straight to the sofa, pulled the honest man off, lay down on it himself, stretched vigorously, put his hands behind his head, crossed his right leg over his left, and hummed softly.

"Ark, isn't Reborn dead?"

Why did he come back?

The honest man who was questioning Miku pointed at Iggy, and Miku scratched his ear, "When did I ever say Reborn was dead?"

Looking at Nabeshima in the glass case, Miku lazily replied to the honest man.

"You clearly said Reborn had disappeared!"

"Yeah, he disappeared for a while, but he's back now!"

Miku waved his arm at the experimenter on the control panel, signaling that the experiment could proceed. The experimenter glanced at the yellow nebula gas connected to the injection valve, pulled the control lever forcefully, and began the experiment.

"what!!!"

As soon as the yellow nebula gas was injected, Nabeshima inside the glass box let out a painful roar.

His eyes were quickly filled with a murky yellow light, and his body surface was covered with a layer of oily sheen. The transformation had begun and could not be reversed!

This guy will be turned into a weapon. Although he won't disappear directly after losing the battle like the defeated dragon's lover, he will lose all his memories. However, in return, his combat power will be extraordinary.

If you pay the price, you will always receive the corresponding reward.

Nabeshima's transformation into a striker was inevitable, and Miku no longer paid attention. The honest man was still watching Iggy from afar, secretly marveling and gloating at the same time.

Iggy's strength is undeniable. He was able to defeat himself and Evolence on his own back then. Now that he's back, it's like adding wings to Faust's tiger.

It wouldn't even be a problem to unify the entire country with his power.

Miku had no intention of paying attention to the honest man's inner monologue. Instead, she looked at the team leader among the experimenters standing to the side.

"Have the results for my previous experiment been released yet?"

"The results are in!"

The team leader bowed respectfully, his eyes behind the gas mask filled with fervent admiration for Miku's talent.

"You are simply a genius! You have actually managed to reverse the physiological structure of humans. You are simply a god of science!"

"Forget the flattery, just take me to see that successful experimental subject, and give me the experimental log while you're at it!"

"Yes!"

The team leader, nodding emphatically, retrieved the experimental logbook and led Miku into a place at the Faust base where experimental subjects were imprisoned.

"Right here."

The lab technician captain pointed to the middle-aged man behind the cage. The man looked to be in his late thirties or early forties, with a weathered face covered in stubble and bulging muscles that showed his physical strength. However, his lifeless eyes were filled with turbidity.

Moreover, no one would imagine that just a few days ago this man was a frail old man, at risk of ending up in his coffin at any moment.

"What happened to this guy?"

Noticing the change in the test subjects' mental state, Miku touched the railing and asked the head of the experimenters a question. The head of the experimenters quickly replied, "We followed your orders and fulfilled all the test subjects' wishes before the experiment and told them about the benefits of a successful experiment, but problems still arose after the experiment."

"What's the problem?"

Miku's voice took on a cold tinge. The head of the experimenters noticed the change in Miku's tone and replied in a panic, "Although the experiment can reverse a person's physiological age, it doesn't seem to be able to reverse their mental state at the same time. This old guy already had Alzheimer's disease before the experiment, which is commonly known as senile dementia."

"Although he survived the experiment, his mental state deteriorated day by day, and it was even said that his mental state was on the verge of collapse."

Miku meticulously read through the experimental log, gaining a thorough understanding of the previous experiments.

"Snapped!"

Miku closed his experimental log, tilted his head back slightly, and began to reenact the events in his mind based on the descriptions in the log.

In an instant, Miku, who had simulated this experiment tens of thousands of times with his powerful brainpower and mental strength, opened his eyes and exhaled a slight breath of stale air.

"Lord Ark?" The team leader of the experimenters waited anxiously for Miku to reveal his thoughts.

"You've done a great job! I just calculated the success rate of the experiment you submitted, and I've increased it to 100%!"

What reward do you want?

Miku casually handed the experiment log back to the team leader and stood in front of the cage, looking at the listless experimental subject inside.

The team leader looked at Miku with admiration. In that instant, Miku's status even surpassed that of Katsuragi Takumi in his heart.

After all, no matter how talented Katsuragi Takumi was, it was impossible for him to extrapolate an experiment to a 100% success rate in an instant.

What reward do you desire?

Miku urged, and the team leader of the experimenters immediately bowed and said, "I don't want anything, I just want to follow you forever!"

"That's it!"

Miku glanced at the team leader and said calmly, "From now on, you'll be in charge of Leo!"

"Do a good job!"

Miku patted the head of the lab technicians on the shoulder and left. The head technician's face, hidden behind his mask, flushed an unnatural red and shouted, "Yes, sir!!!"

Even after Miku left, he changed direction and bowed to Miku.

Miku didn't take this little incident to heart at all; he was too busy taking care of Leo to even think about it himself.

So he simply handed it over to someone else. Although that kid was docile around him, he was actually just as troublesome as his older brother Miko.

Miku, lost in thought, went straight to the experimental hall. The Striker transformed by Nabeshima was nowhere to be found; it had probably been released into the streets to cause trouble.

The rabbit will handle it when the time comes, and he needs to get on with his own business. The experimental results he wanted have been obtained, so he needs to quickly proceed with his plan.

Besides following the general direction of the plot, Miku needs to create some variables, and what he needs to do is change the fate of someone, thereby increasing his trump cards.

Let's start by reversing aging.

The honest man remained three meters away from Iqi, who was already asleep on the sofa. He hesitated to approach. He knew that this man was impulsive and wouldn't compromise like Miku.

"Hey, Himuro!"

"Huh?" The honest man turned around with a hostile look: "I told you not to call me by my real name here."

"Come on, everyone here is one of us, the rest are experimental subjects, what's there to be afraid of?"

"It's better to be safe than sorry!"

The honest man wouldn't budge, and Miku scoffed, "Fine, I'm just here to tell you that Reborn will be filling in for me for a while, and I'll be leaving for a period of time myself!"

What are you planning to do?

“Let’s conduct an experiment.” Touching the Genesis System on his left hand, Miku spoke calmly: “You don’t need to worry about the specifics of what to do.”
