Zeroāto is a one of the fascinating power systems that plays a significant role in the story. This power manifests itself as a numerical value displayed on an individual's wrist, with a higher prevalence on the right wrist. The number represents the person's power level, and it serves as a multiplier for their physical attributes and personal techniques. Interestingly, the closer the number is to zero, the more formidable the individual becomes in terms of their strength and abilities.
The origins of Zeroāto's prevalence in Japan remain shrouded in mystery, and further research is needed to fully understand this phenomenon. However, it is widely acknowledged that the majority of individuals born with Zeroāto possess numbers ranging from 95 to 70. Those on the higher end of this spectrum are often referred to as "Peak human," as their physical attributes and personal techniques are greatly enhanced, surpassing the capabilities of an average person. On the other hand, individuals on the lower end, classified as "Superhuman," possess even more extraordinary abilities.
Intriguingly, there exists a smaller subset of individuals with numbers below 70, estimated to be around 1000 people. These individuals possess an unparalleled level of power, with their abilities surpassing what is considered humanly possible. The power scale ranges from 69 to 50, with each number representing a significant increase in destructive potential. For instance, individuals with a power level of 69 can effortlessly decimate city blocks, while those closer to 50 possess the capability to pulverize an entire island comparable in size to Easter Island with a single devastating strike.
The disparity between a power level of 50 and 49 is immense, as those with a power level of 49 can exhibit feats on a grand scale, encompassing an entire country or even a sub-continental region. It is crucial to note that Zeroāto primarily amplifies physical attributes and personal techniques, leaving mental capabilities and intelligence unaffected.
As fascinating as Zeroāto is, our understanding of individuals with power levels of 10 and below remains limited. The capabilities of these individuals are still largely unknown, and further exploration is required to uncover the extent of their extraordinary powers. Additionally, it is worth mentioning that some individuals may possess solely enhanced physical abilities, while others may solely possess amplified personal techniques. There are also cases where individuals have both aspects magnified, provided they possess any personal techniques to begin with.
It is essential to acknowledge that the calculations and assessments of power levels within the Zeroāto system are subject to revision and improvement.
