Chapter 8 - An Author

"Well, let me give you some real power," Billy said with a teasing tone. Without hesitation, he lowered himself onto her, his body pressing firmly against hers. He leaned in to capture her lips in a deep, commanding kiss, sealing their renewed connection. Their bodies moved together in a rhythm that grew more intense with each passing moment, pushing through another round of ecstasy. This time, Yamato's pleasure soared to new heights, her senses overwhelmed by the surge of sensation.

What made it even more intense was the kiss, which was giving her power, amplifying her own experience. As she synchronized with him, her body responded more fiercely, heightening the intimacy and mutual satisfaction. The sensation of both of them reaching deeper into each other's pleasure created an almost transcendent experience, leaving them both breathless and utterly consumed by the overwhelming wave of bliss.

She was exhausted, her body trembling from the intensity of her efforts. Yet, once she fully tapped into Billy's talent, Yamato began to feel herself lift off the ground, her body gently floating into the air. Her mind quickly shifted into overdrive, instinctively gathering her skills and focusing her energy on forming the ability that would best suit her—something uniquely hers. 

Slowly but surely, the icy power from her devil fruit began to coalesce, icy tendrils swirling around her consciousness. She felt an almost divine sense that ice could become her domain, her signature force. But as she concentrated on it, a faint hesitation crept into her mind; she rejected the idea. It didn't feel like her true calling, like it fit her soul.

As her focus expanded, more skills tried to take shape, flickering at the edges of her mind—weapon mastery was one. She pushed it away, feeling that it didn't resonate with her true nature. Next, a beast-related ability appeared, whispering promises of strength and ferocity. She rejected that too, sensing it wasn't what she wanted. Until finally, one idea took root—a concept that felt more aligned with her identity: an ability related to being an Author.

"Author Authority?" she whispered softly, her voice trembling with a mixture of curiosity and certainty. This felt like the one that truly suited her. She reached out with her hand, as if grasping at an intangible thread, and focused her will upon it. Instantly, a jolt of energy shot through her, and her head snapped backwards as the power of an Author surged through her veins. She could feel it—the ability to see everything as nothing more than a story, a narrative she could shape and control. It was a thrilling, intoxicating feeling, as if the universe itself was her blank canvas.

However, she quickly realized the limits of her newfound power. While exhilarating, it was still incomplete. She wasn't strong enough—yet. As of now, she was only a Reader, capable of observing and understanding stories, but not yet the one weaving them. She had a long way to go before she could fully command the Authority of an Author, but the seed had been planted, and she was eager to grow into it.

She turned her gaze toward Billy, and at that moment, an overwhelming flood of information about him surged into her mind. It was as if Billy were a character in a story, suddenly laid bare before her, open and accessible for her to read. This was her perception—an instant, comprehensive view into his essence, his history, and his abilities.

And this was what she saw:

[Billy Maximoff, a pervert with the dream to become the Harem King. Although currently in a weakened state, he possesses the potential to become the strongest person in the world. With a simple snap of his fingers, he can make anything happen—his only limitation being the amount of energy he can muster at any given moment…]

The information was vast and detailed, spanning multiple layers and depths. As questions arose within her mind, they were instantly answered—she didn't even need to actively read or search for answers. The knowledge seemed to flow directly into her consciousness, allowing her to grasp everything there was to know about him almost effortlessly. It was as if she could understand his entire being in an instant.

However, this understanding could also be further simplified, like viewing a statue's window that offers a clearer, more focused perspective. She could choose to see only the essential truths or delve into the full, detailed intricacies, depending on what she needed at the moment.

[Name: Billy Maximoff

Race: Human

Height: 8'10 

Original Height: 6'1

Ability: [Snap], [Singularity Body], [Auto Work Out], [10x cheat], [Sex God]

Strength: Yonko tier]

[Snap]

A unique and formidable ability that grants Billy the power to do anything with a simple snap of his fingers. No matter what he desires—whether creating objects, manipulating reality, or altering circumstances—he can accomplish it instantly. However, because Billy is currently in a weakened state, the full extent of this ability is limited. The more he pushes his power, the more energy it consumes. He has approximately one year before he can fully recover and return to his peak strength, at which point his capabilities will be unrestricted once again.

[Singularity Body]

A highly specialized and unique ability that renders Billy completely immune to being copied or having his abilities stolen. He exists entirely in the present moment, making it impossible for anyone to perceive his future or past, effectively isolating him from temporal observation. Additionally, destroying a timeline or attempting to erase him from history has no effect—his body will shift him to another reality or alternate universe, evading any attempts at permanent removal. This physique also makes him invisible to remote viewing tools, such as crystal balls or scrying devices, because he only exists in one specific spot, preventing his image from being projected or seen elsewhere.

[Auto Work Out]

An ability Billy created himself through a simple snap of his fingers. When activated, his body automatically undergoes intense physical training, growing stronger without feeling any of the usual fatigue, soreness, or injuries associated with such exertion… and most importantly, he doesn't need to work out. Over time, this effect compounds—meaning that, given enough patience, Billy's strength could double every week. This ability allows him to rapidly increase his physical prowess without risking, as all he needs to do is sit back and do nothing as he grow stronger.

[10x Cheat]

Another ability derived from a snap of his fingers, [10x Cheat], significantly amplifies Billy's capabilities. Under this effect, he gains ten times the benefit from many of his abilities. For instance, [Auto Work Out] will boost his strength and stamina tenfold, and his senses—such as sight, hearing, and reflexes—become equally amplified. Essentially, his overall effectiveness in combat, perception, and physical feats is multiplied by ten. However, this boost is limited and doesn't apply universally to all abilities, [Snap] and [Singularity] are not effected.

[Sex God]

A powerful, self-created ability created by a snap of his fingers that grants Billy complete mastery over sexual prowess. He knows everything required to give a partner maximum pleasure, including understanding their body, desires, and pleasure points. Additionally, his own body is altered to enhance the experience for the other person, ensuring they feel the utmost satisfaction. This ability isn't just about technique; it encompasses an almost instinctual understanding of intimacy, making him an unparalleled lover.

"You cheated!" Yamato said, glaring at Billy with a pout. She crossed her arms, still annoyed from how easily she had been defeated. Seeing the abilities he had displayed, she couldn't help but feel frustrated—no wonder she hadn't stood a chance.

"What do you mean? I only used my own capability. You expected me to hold back?" Billy asked, putting on an innocent expression. It didn't fool her for a second. Yamato could tell he was playing dumb thanks to Author Authority, but what could she really say? He hadn't broken any rules—he'd simply used his own strength, and that was enough to win.

"Well, with your current powers, you should be able to defeat your father," Billy said with a smile. Yamato gave a firm nod in response, determination burning in her eyes.

But instead of rushing off to face Kaido, they headed to where Hiyori was waiting. It wasn't long before Billy found himself standing before both her and Shinobu.

"My apologies. While I would like to join the lady," Shinobu said with a respectful tone, "I have decided to remain in the land of Wano until Lord Momonosuke returns." Her voice carried a calm but resolute sense of loyalty and duty, reflecting her commitment to her homeland.

Billy chuckled softly, a charming smile spreading across his face. "What a shame. I was hoping to make you my wife," he said playfully, his tone light and teasing. His words caused Shinobu to blush faintly, a slight redness creeping across her cheeks as she looked away modestly.

She then nodded, accepting his words with grace. "Well, it can't be helped. Rest up now. In two days, we'll go to defeat Kaido. After that, we will work to rebuild Wano and restore it to its former glory," Billy proclaimed with a confident smile.

Hiyori nodded with a subdued but resolute expression. Her eyes reflected a mixture of hope and resolve, before she turned her gaze to Yamato..

"Oh yeah, this is Yamato. She's Kaido's daughter and also our new crewmate," Billy introduced casually, gesturing toward Yamato. His words left Hiyori stunned for a moment, her eyes widening in surprise. Instantly, she went on guard, unsure whether to trust Yamato, wary of the potential danger. But as they continued talking, Hiyori gradually began to understand that Yamato was genuinely a friend, not an enemy.
