BNHA: Martial Arts God

CHAPTER 4

4 years later...

"Huff... Huff... Huff... Huff... Hurgh!"

Gohru grunts as he finishes the 4th set of the day with the last squat. Panting heavily, the boy sat on the ground as he took a moment to relax from the crazy training regimen. He moves the long fringe of hair to another side while mentally noting to cut it tomorrow.

His body has had a massive change. His body was now rid of baby fat, replacing it with muscle everywhere. With a chiseled chest and rock-solid abs that a child should not have, the boy stood up, taller than ever before, standing at 130 centimeters tall, and cracked his neck before he moved on to the final set.

For the past 4 years, he had only been doing workouts and cardio. From year one to year three, it was 5 sets of push-ups, sit-ups, squats, and a 10-kilometer run. But when this year came, his workout intensified to push-ups, sit-ups, squats, crunches, lunges, skip-roping, Russian twists, calf raises, etc. Everything that had to do with the lower body.

He actually had to almost crawl to school at the beginning of the year because of the numb feeling in his legs, which his brothers laughed at.

The problem with all this training is that because his workout increased, his sleep schedule has gotten worse. He could only sleep from 9 to 12, before getting up to train until 6, which is the time to head to school. Sure, his Quirk had made his body adapt to the lack of sleep, but he was still 5 years old, so he still had to sleep at least 6 hours a day.

And so, because of the time used to train, he had to sleep in class. Now note that in America where he was from, sleeping in class wasn't that big of a deal at the age of 8, but here in Japan, they have a saying that people should not waste a single second doing things since time is money.

Like right now.

"Jin-san!"

A female teacher scolds as his eyes shot open from his nap. Now woken up, the boy yawns tiredly as the teacher forces him to get up to the blackboard to solve the mathematical equation.

"Solve Question 4 on the board." The teacher snaps at the disrespectful orphan as he walks up to the blackboard and grabs one of the many chalks.

9 – 3 ÷ 1/3 + 1 = ?

Raising the chalk, Gohru yawns again as he solves it with ease.

"Well, since we must follow the order of operations, I first divided -3 with 1/3, which becomes -9. Then it was just simple mathematics to minus 9 with -9 and that leaves one as the answer." He voiced out loud for everyone as he finishes the equation.

9 – 3 ÷ 1/3 + 1 

= 9 – 9 + 1

= 1

Placing the chalk back in its original place, he strolls back to his seat before placing a book in front of his face upright before continuing his sleep, leaving the shocked teacher's jaw open since she had never taught them the order of operations yet.

Smirking, the boy lets Morpheus embrace him.

RINGGG~

The school bell rings as Gohru wakes up from his nap. Stretching his body, he packs all his belongings in the desk drawer back into his bag before walking away. He was deep in thought as he passed through students his age to the front gate to wait for his fellow orphan brothers.
