Level 5 Variant, Reverse Birth Triple, Tyrant's Embrace

It was not only Uchiha Suyang who underwent a transformation, but also Marvel Suyang, who existed as a mutant.

When he was held in a mutant prison, researchers had classified him as a Level 2 mutant.

The origin of mutants lies in the Marvel Universe; in the distant past, when humanity was still primitive, the Celestial explorer Oneg applied a latent gene to some of these apes to expand their potential.

This latent gene was the X-Gene.

The United States government classifies mutants based on the strength of their abilities into Epsilon, Delta, Beta, Alpha, and the strongest, Omega class, which can also be referred to as Levels 1 through 5.

Mutants with very weak superpowers, which are useless in both combat and daily life, and who possess strange appearances or are purely monstrous in form, are Level 1.

Level 2 mutants are characterized by having no fundamental physical differences from ordinary humans, with superpowers so insignificant that they may not even realize they possess special abilities.

The abilities possessed by Level 2 mutants are relatively weak, limited to passing through specific solid objects or slightly controlling temperature; Domino is one such example.

Level 3 mutants possess highly practical superpowers, such as Rogue's ability to copy others' powers or Wolverine's powerful healing factor.

Level 4 mutants must possess very powerful abilities and are often highly skilled in combat; Cyclops, Professor X, Sebastian Shaw, and Sunfire all belong to this tier.

The final level of mutants is known as Omega-level mutants, the ultimate threat to humanity; only those with unlimited power or immortality and omnipotence are classified at this level.

There are fewer than 20 Level 5 mutants in the entire Marvel world; they are extremely rare.

In fact, becoming a Level 5 mutant is harder than ascending to the heavens.

Ever since Marvel Suyang shared his existence with the other three, he felt a profound change occurring deep within his body, as if his potential had been ignited.

The three Duyangs were truly extraordinary; to say nothing of the rest, Naruto Du Yang came from the Naruto world, and his body possessed more than three times the number of cells of an ordinary human.

This meant that his potential and upper limits were incomparable to those of an ordinary human.

Moreover, among the three:

One had already awakened the Mangekyo Sharingan and possessed a vast amount of chakra.

One stood at the peak of the second stage of Inversion, just one step away from entering the realm of the third stage of Inversion.

The last one, from the One Piece world, possessed a naturally formidable physique and was already proficient in the use of Armament Haki.

Duyang felt as if his genes had been completely ignited; an extremely powerful force surged from within his body, manifesting as dazzling points of white light that seemed to carry the power to purify everything.

The specks of white light spread throughout this mysterious domain, as if a god were unleashing holy light to purify the world, yet at the same time, it felt as though everything were being reduced to nothingness.

Naruto Du Yang and the others changed color; they, too, felt the terror of this power.

Such a tyrannical power of purification, which even distorted space, must have reached the threshold of a Level 5 mutant.

"Have I actually become an Omega-level mutant?"

Marvel Suyang looked at his hands in disbelief, perhaps because sharing the power of multiple systems had fundamentally altered his genes, causing his potential to erupt completely.

Although he had become an Omega-level mutant, his power was currently in an unstable state.

Generally speaking, if one's heart and will are not strong enough, few Omega-level mutants can control their own power, much like Jean Grey.

However, the transformation of the Duyangs did not end there.

The Under One Person Duyang also felt a strange change occurring within himself.

Just like that, simply and easily, he broke through the bottleneck that had plagued him for years, achieved perfect full-body Qi-fication, and stepped into the legendary third stage of Inversion.

His cultivation of life and essence also soared to the extreme.

So-called dual cultivation of life and essence can be crudely understood as allowing both the soul and the body to reach a state of perfection.

"Essence" can be understood as a person's temperament, disposition, character, thoughts, consciousness, spirit, and will—all abstract things.

"Life" refers to vitality, lifespan, the body, the flesh, and material existence.

Now, after multiple sharings with the three other Duyangs, Duyang had become far too powerful on both a spiritual and physical level, and with such a profound foundation of life and essence, he instantly shattered his bottleneck.

He was now capable of achieving full-body Qi-fication.

It was a pity, however, that even after stepping into the third stage of Inversion, the Under One Person Duyang did not ascend to the heavens or transcend the void to become an immortal; it was as if he had suddenly understood something.

"So, the third stage of Inversion cannot lead to immortality; the ancestors of the Sanyi Sect were lying to us all along."

The Under One Person Duyang was lost in thought, a look of desolation flashing through his eyes, but soon, a spark of spirit ignited within him.

Since he possessed a golden finger that allowed for mutual sharing, there was a certain probability that he might encounter a Duyang who had already become an immortal; even if he didn't, perhaps he could use various other abilities to achieve immortality.

If there were no immortals in the world of Under One Person, then he would become the one and only immortal of this realm!

The last one to undergo a transformation was, naturally, the One Piece Duyang.

Before being captured by Akainu, he had already mastered Armament Haki.

Haki is essentially a special power that converts intangible perceptions like spirit and killing intent into fighting will—in other words, the power of human potential.

It is divided into Observation Haki, Armament Haki, and Conqueror's Haki; all humans possess the potential for Haki, but it must be stimulated and enhanced through training.

Armament Haki can increase an individual's defensive power, acting like an invisible suit of armor.

Going further, it can be evolved into offensive power, such as Ryou, which can then be used to contend with Devil Fruit users and even touch the physical forms of "Logia" fruit users.

Among the three types of Haki, the rarest is Conqueror's Haki, which allows one to intimidate or knock out enemies using their own "spirit."

At the same time, the classification of Conqueror's Haki can be divided into primary, intermediate, and advanced levels.

The primary level can be achieved by bursting forth due to intense emotions.

The intermediate level can be achieved by freely controlling it with one's own will.

The advanced level can be used to eliminate opponents with sheer pressure.

The highest level of application for Conqueror's Haki is known as Conqueror's Haki Infusion.

By infusing Conqueror's Haki onto weapons or parts of the body for attacks, the offensive power is enhanced, allowing one to strike enemies substantially without making physical contact from a certain distance; only a very small number of top-tier powerhouses can achieve this.

Originally, One Piece Duyang did not possess the aptitude to wield Conqueror's Haki, but after undergoing the sharing process, his physical potential underwent a fundamental change, naturally granting him the ability.

Given the current level of Duyang's will and latent potential, he is fully capable of using Conqueror's Haki.

One could see a substance resembling black lightning coiling around his hands, emitting wave after wave of terrifying aura, as if Duyang had been imbued with immense power.
