The anime starts from Star Iron

Chapter 163 Gene Lock [4k]

After the Gaia incident was over, there was almost nothing in this world of Punch Man that was worth Fu Le's attention.

While those powerful monsters were being eliminated and arrested, the monsters without Gaia's secret support were constantly being eliminated and captured by the army.

The process went extremely smoothly.

After all, Saitama is here to deal with the big monsters.

And how could ordinary monsters be a match for an army that had taken strengthening potions and was armed with special weapons?

If there is anything else that is worthy of Fu Le's attention.

Then it can only be the cosmic overlord Boros who will arrive at an unknown time.

Boros is very powerful.

His strength should be around level eight.

This is still a relatively noteworthy opponent for Fu Le today.

Fu Le is now a leader among the eight levels if he gives it his all.

If he put all his effort into it, one move would be enough to kill Boros.

After all, the difference in strength between level eight and level eight is as huge as the difference between heaven and earth.

Moreover, this so-called level is just a brief division made by Fu Le based on the evolution level of the Covenant of Evolution.

This level division is actually not that clear.

But it is enough for Fu Le to use.

Therefore, if Fu Le wants to have a good fight against Boros, he only needs to not use the Covenant of Evolution.

Now that he doesn't need the Evolution Covenant, Fu Le's strength is only level seven.

Of course, he is the strongest part among the seven levels.

But Fu Le believed that even at level seven, he was strong enough to fight against Boros at level eight and win in the end.

This is Fu Le’s confidence.

Otherwise, wouldn’t all the things he learned be useless?

Therefore, Boros was just a concern in Fu Le's opinion.

But Fu Le had no idea when he would arrive.

He could only wait.

Either conduct various experiments in the laboratory to study the changes and development of certain abilities, or further study the nature of the soul.

Although there is still nearly a thousand years before the evil spirit body breaks out, Fu Le has always treated this matter as an urgent matter just in case.

In addition, Fu Le will lead the army to eliminate monsters in the wild.

They need to rebuild civilization on this planet.

Just like that, time began to pass slowly.

And one evening, when Fu Le, Heita and Gaia, who had just finished a day of research, were sitting in the cafeteria to eat, Ruan Mei's message suddenly came through their mobile phone.

"The first phase of the experiment is over."

After receiving the news from Ruan Mei, Fu Le, Heita and Gaia didn't even eat.

The three of them went straight to Ruan Mei's laboratory.

"Ruan Mei, have you achieved any results yet?"

Fu Le shouted as he pushed open the door of the laboratory.

“It can be considered as some results.”

Ruan Mei, leaning back in her chair, put down the report in her hand and looked at Fu Le with a smile.

"So, what's the situation with that gene chain?"

Black Tower asked.

"As we speculated before, the mystery of this world lies in that gene."

"The evolution of genes is the essence of this gene chain."

"But this gene chain found in Saitama's body is still not its most perfect form."

Ruan Mei explained to Fu Le seriously.

Ruan Mei knew very well that among the three, the one who valued this power the most was Fu Le.

Because he can use this power.

As for the Black Tower, she just wanted to use this power to explore the characteristics of this world, so as to infer the fundamental reasons for the different forms of the world.

That is to use this as a stepping stone to study the nature of the world.

However, compared to the Black Tower, Ruan Mei is more inclined to answer Fu Le's confusion.

After all, it was Fu Le, not the Black Tower, who could take her through time.

"Is Saitama so strong? Isn't that all the gene chains in his body?"

Fu Le couldn't help but feel surprised.

In Fu Le's opinion, Saitama is definitely the protagonist of this world.

And as the protagonist, isn't he special?
"His gene chain is indeed not complete, but based on what I have gathered from the gene chains in other people's bodies, the gene chain in Saitama's body has the potential to develop completely, but he has no way to activate it all."

"Saitama is not a scientist after all. His understanding of the nature of power is very rudimentary, which can be seen from the way he trains."

"So his development is just straight-up pure power, speed, and endurance."

"But from a macro perspective, the direction in which this power can develop is almost limitless. The only thing that can limit it is the imagination of the holder."

"From this point of view, this kind of power is very suitable for you, Fu Le."

Ruan Mei chuckled.

This is not Ruan Mei praising Fu Le, but this kind of power is indeed very suitable for Fu Le.

After all, Fu Le has the ability to travel between different worlds.

This means that the types of abilities he can witness are beyond the reach of all other people who possess that ability.

That is truly the power of all the heavens and worlds gathered in one.

"Then can you replicate it on me?"

Fu Le asked excitedly.

He knew very well what Ruan Mei meant.

"Yes, but it's not a replica, it's an activation."

Ruan Mei continued to explain to Fu Le.

"Every living thing in this world has this gene. There are absolutely no exceptions. Even Gaia, the embodiment of the soul, has this gene. Obviously, this should be the basic law of this world."

"But having this gene doesn't mean you can use its power. The amount of this gene expressed in each person's body is different. Even Saitama only expresses less than 80% of this gene, and others express even less."

"But if there's just a hint of the gene, there's a chance that the gene will be fully expressed."

"Based on the blood you left behind, I discovered that you do have this gene in your body, but it's only expressed a tiny bit. This is the lowest amount of expression I've ever seen."

"But it's enough that I can bring this power to life and help you fully express it."

Ruan Mei said confidently.

"Then please."

Fu Le said to Ruan Mei seriously.

Although Fu Le's expression was serious, the smile in the corner of his eyes could not be concealed.

It was as if he already possessed this power.

But this is the fact. Although Ruan Mei has not started her operation yet, Fu Le unconditionally believes in Ruan Mei's promise.

Her ability needs no proof.

In the field of life sciences, she is the best expert, no doubt about it.

At least Fu Le has not met any other experts in the field of life engineering who can match her.

"Please be prepared. This operation cannot be completed by taking medicine or taking an injection. For your safety, you need to go to the experimental cabin."

Ruan Mei instructed.

"Don't worry, I have complete confidence in your skills."

Fu Le said to Ruan Mei as he walked towards the experimental cabin.

Feeling Fu Le's full trust, Ruan Mei seemed to have suddenly returned to the scene when she and Fu Le first met in the simulated universe.

At that time, Fu Le told her sincerely that he believed in Ruan Mei.

And later, in the elevator heading to the closed compartment, Ruan Mei's response to Fu Le.

"I am willing to believe you too." Looking at Fu Le who was already lying in the experimental cabin, and then looking at the various data displayed on the tablet in her hand, Ruan Mei couldn't help but mutter to herself.

Then she laughed.

"Then let's get started. I won't let you down."

Soaking in the nutrient solution in the experimental chamber, Fu Le's consciousness was exceptionally clear.

But as Ruan Mei injected some reagents into his body, Fu Le's consciousness began to become fuzzy.

Gradually, he lost control of his body.

But Fu Le's perception of his body was enhanced as a result.

Relying on his research on the soul and his mastery of leptons, Fu Le's control over the soul and consciousness is no less than that of the physical body.

When Fu Le lost control of his body and devoted himself to the perception of his body, his perception of his body also reached another level.

In this detached state, the music is exceptionally peaceful.

He sat quietly in his cross-legged position, awaiting his body's impending transformation.

At the beginning, Fu Le could not sense anything.

It was as if nothing had changed in his body.

But Fu Le never worried.

He really trusts Ruan Mei unconditionally.

So he was waiting, and waiting.

Waiting for that moment to come.

Because he put all his senses into his body, Fu Le's perception of the outside world gradually became slow.

And just when an unknown amount of time had passed, changes finally occurred.

The first thing Fu Le sensed was that his cells seemed to become active.

Rather than being as 'lifeless' as it once was.

Fu Le immersed his consciousness into them, becoming entangled with them, as if he was really having a conversation.

But Fu Le knew that his cells did not really have consciousness.

Rather, the evolution that had stopped since the moment Fu Le was born has now been activated again.

His cells were waiting for Fu Le's orders.

Waiting for Fu Le to guide them to evolve again, so as to move towards a more perfect posture.

Fu Le naturally would not refuse this request.

Although this was the first time Fu Le faced this situation, he had a template in hand.

He was well prepared and set up a special project team for himself in the laboratory from the very beginning, and the research was on Saitama's genes.

So, using Saitama's genes as a template, Fu Le began to guide the evolution of his own cells.

Then Fu Le clearly felt that he was getting stronger.

Fu Le is very sensitive to this feeling.

After all, Fu Le is a Xianzhou person, and because of the influence of the power of abundance, the bodies of Xianzhou people cannot perform muscle exercises.

Therefore, whatever powers the Xianzhou people have after they grow up, he will always have that same power.

This value will neither increase nor decrease.

Just like the bodies of the Xianzhou people will never decay after they grow to their peak, they are truly eternally young and will never age.

But at this moment, Fu Le's power began to violate the laws set by the Power of Abundance.

This seems to mean that this power has surpassed the Star God?
it's not true.

Although the genetic power in One Punch Man's world is also mysteriously powerful, this power has not yet grown to the level of a Star God.

But the nature of this power is actually very high.

It just takes time to develop.

The same is true for spirit power and chakra.

These are all transformed by the laws of each world, and in essence they all have the potential to grow to the highest level.

But potential is just potential.

Potential is always potential unless it is realized.

Therefore, the power of genes cannot break the shackles of the power of abundance.

Then why did Fu Le's power increase?
This is because it is an improvement brought about at the genetic level.

This growth is innate.

The limitations of the power of abundance are acquired.

Fu Le today is like a child who was stunted due to lack of nutrition in his early years and whose body suddenly grows a lot after supplementing nutrition when he grows up.

It’s just that Fu Le’s secondary development is a little too beyond common sense.

Different from Saitama's gradual improvement.

The reason why Saitama is improving slowly is because his improvement comes from the overdraft of his lifespan.

Therefore, his evolution often involves evolving his lifespan while using his vitality as energy to supplement his physical improvements.

But Fu Le doesn't need to do so, he has no lack of energy to support his evolution.

Therefore, the improvement of Fule is rapid.

Strength, speed, endurance.

These are the three key points of Saitama's evolution.

These are all physical evolutions.

But Fu Le was not satisfied with this.

During his communication with Ruan Mei, Fu Le already knew that Saitama's evolution was exceptionally perfect even though it was an accident.

For example, first evolve lifespan, and then transform vitality into energy to evolve the body.

But in fact, his evolution is very ordinary.

This power can do more than just that.

So how else can we evolve?
Fu Le suddenly thought of those guys in the Hero Association and the Monster Association.

Their strength is beyond common sense.

Obviously, they are all powerful people who have expressed more of this genetic power.

In a sense, many of them have developed abilities that are even more amazing than Saitama's.

But unfortunately, Saitama's stats are too high.

No matter how perfect a mechanism is, it will be powerless when faced with pure numbers.

But this doesn't mean their mechanisms are bad.

For example, a tornado.

As the former face of the Hero Association, her abilities are terrifyingly strong.

In a sense, Tornado is also a numerical monster.

Her telekinetic ability was so terrifying that it was unimaginable, and even Fubuki, who had the same ability as her, was frightened and suffered psychological trauma.

"Since Tornado can develop super powers like telekinesis, I should be able to develop super powers too."

Fu Le said confidently in his heart.

He once recruited Fubuki into the army in order to recruit Tornado to enhance her abilities.

At that time, he had examined Fubuki's body and studied her genes.

Recalling Fubuki's genetic template, Fu Le began to guide his own genes in her direction.

After some error correction and revision, Fu Le finally developed a trace of telekinesis.

This power is obviously more difficult to express than the rest.

But since I can express a little bit of it, the rest will not be a problem.

Infinite power continued to flow into Fu Le's body, and Fu Le's strength, speed, endurance, and telekinesis were constantly growing.

This ability to guide gene expression in a targeted manner is very similar to the power system in the novels that Fu Le read in his previous life.

"In that case, I will name you 'Gene Lock'."

Feeling the changes in his body, Fu Le said in his heart with satisfaction.
