Classic Development

"What's wrong with you, Isao? Why is your face like someone who wants to kill a Kaiju?" Jugo Urota, a middle-aged man with a lazy and dispirited face, who often brought a bottle of sake to work, was the Captain of the Fourth Division, looking at his old friend with a strange expression. 

Shouldn't Isao be happy or nervous, thinking that Shinra, this disciple of his, wanted to take a test to wield the Number Weapon 6, the numbered weapon that was created from the strongest Kaiju that ever appeared in this country? 

Yet, why was Isao's face so fierce that Isao seemed to wish to beat the hell out of Shinra? 

Somehow, if Shinra wasn't about to face an important test, and stood by the side of Isao on the observation room, Jugo felt like Isao might beat the crap out of Shinra. 

"Nothing." 

However, Isao couldn't give an answer, since how could he tell his old friend that he had just learned from his butler that his daughter hadn't returned from Shinra's room and had been staying with this disciple of his?

What did Shinra and Kikoru do in Shinra's room for a night? 

Isao wasn't naive enough to believe that Shinra and Kikoru were just playing a video game on the computer or game console! 

While the two were playing a game, they must have been playing an adult game! 

Yes, Isao was happy to know that Kikoru could get someone she loved, but he felt conflicted and even wanted to beat up Shinra, who couldn't wait until they married?! 

"Did he date your daughter or something?" Jugo asked with a laugh, but as he saw his friend, he couldn't laugh and even appeared gloomy. Watching this reaction, he became dumbfounded and asked incredulously, "Really?" 

"...they should have been doing that." 

Instead of following the two to Nagano, Kikoru decided to rest as she was exhausted as if she hadn't slept for a night. 

If it wasn't because of that, then what was it? 

Hopefully, Isao could find another answer, but unfortunately, he couldn't. Yet, somehow, it also made him relieved since, as a father, he couldn't give his daughter the love that she should have, especially with his position and the dream that she had after the death of his wife. 

Taking a deep breath, Jugo turned on the microphone and said, "Uchiha Shinra, I hope that you are ready. If you fail, then you should be prepared."

Kikoru might not be his daughter, but the daughter of Hikari and Isao, yet Jugo thought of Kikoru as his daughter, too, as he was a close friend of Hikari and Isao, and also had taken care of Kikoru when she was a child, so when he heard that a beast had eaten that dearest daughter, how could he remain calm!? 

"....." 

Shinra was helpless, but he still answered, "Yes, Sir!" 

Under the fierce gaze of the two strongest men in this Matsumoto Base in Nagano, Shinra put the Number Weapon 6 with the help of the staff, yet while many were confused by the gaze of Isao and Jugo, many had a high expectation on him, especially when he was known as the most talented and highest potential in the history. 

Or rather, if Shinra couldn't wield this Number Weapon 6, who would be able to wield it? 

All the training, study, and hard work that Shinra had done were for this moment, for him to become the strongest soldier in the history of the Defense Force and take the mantle of Isao. 

So, somehow, even if Isao and Jugo looked at Shinra that way, they had a high hope for him since, compared to the lives of the people in this country, Shinra's love rendezvous with Kikoru was nothing. 

The Number Weapon, while it was powerful, was also dangerous, as using this weapon would take a toll and stress the body of the user in ways they couldn't imagine, and many of them had lost their lives as they wielded this weapon. 

As the strongest Number Weapon, Weapon Number 6 naturally brought a lot more stress and a higher toll than any other weapon! 

So, it was clear that it was dangerous, yet as Shinra was prepared and had trained so hard for more than a month, of course, he wouldn't hesitate even if he faced danger. 

"We will now begin the compatibility test for Weapon 6!" 

As all the staff were ready, Shinra looked at the observation room and nodded. "Please start." 

"Good." 

Shinra's face was as calm as the surface of the lake, and no one could see the hesitation, anxiety, or even the smug overconfidence that made them wonder whether something that could shake his heart existed. 

Probably, such a thing didn't exist as Shinra dared to sleep with Kikoru, the daughter of Isao, the director general of the Defense Force. 

Regardless, Shinra looked at Weapon 6, which had the shape of a combat suit. Usually, the tester would only wear the arm parts, but this time, he wore all the body parts completely, since frankly, he couldn't wield this weapon, then he would shame the name of Uchiha! 

 "Start!" 

Along with that announcement, all the staff started the compatibility test of the Number Weapon 6 on Shinra! 

"Starting up eminent monster weapon: Weapon 6. No issues with assimilation or nerve turning!" 

At that moment, Shinra felt like he saw the existence of Number 6, the colossal Kaiju with a fortitude level of 9.6 that managed to guide an unparalleled cataclysm alongside multiple Honju-level Kaiju and was known as one of the most catastrophic Kaiju tragedies that appeared in human history. 

Yet—

"Bow down." 

As his eyes changed into that of Mangekyou Sharingan, the soul of the Number 6 was quickly controlled by him, and this weapon was completely under his control as everyone could see his unleashed combat power continued to rise in a speed that no one could imagine till—

"C-Compatibility rate 100%" 

"...." 

Along with that announcement, everyone stayed in a daze, watching Shinra, who had completely mastered the strongest weapon that was created from the strongest weapon! 

"H-How do you feel?" 

Even Isao was slightly shaken by how monstrous Shinra's talent was!

"I feel okay." Shinra could feel the new power he could use after wearing Weapon 6, and this power was quite interesting and even powerful. However, if he used it in this place, he was afraid that he might kill all the people inside, as the power was too fierce. "But I need to test this weapon. Do you have a place where I can use all of its power without worry?" 

"Yes." Isao nodded, satisfied with his son-in-law's capabilities. "We have the facility here, and you can use all of your power there." 

It was the first time someone had been able to use Weapon 6 to such mastery, and, of course, they wanted to gather as much data as possible. 

"Thank you." 

Shinra nodded, glad that his father-in-law held the highest position in the organization. 

"By the way, to make it more interesting, how about you fight one of our strongest soldiers?" 

"Huh?" 

Before Shinra could even make a decision, when he stood at the faculty where he would test his power, a man with a smile, yet containing a hint of mischief, and also slightly irritated for some reason, appeared and said, "My name is Gen Narumi. I am the Division Captain of the First Division. You might be known as the most talented and potential, but there is no way that you are stronger than me! Let me see how powerful you are, Boy!" 

"..." 

Taking a deep breath, Shinra felt that this development was classic.
