~Kotaro Hakari~
As Toru skipped around the training ground happily while looking at her reflection in the water I decided to roll my new gacha rolls, Toru has already proved herself to be lucky for me so far so I will trust her luck.
First, random silver. Gimme.

Rolling...
An Uncommon Trait!
[Uncommon - Sartorial Savant]
You are a savant in anything clothing and sewing. In addition, your wardrobe is almost always clean and little tears seem to mend themselves.
____________________________
Huh, that's... convenient? I am fairly good at sewing now I suppose, and not having to wash our clothes every time we do the carnal wrestle will save Toga some time and grief. I can already see some miscellaneous stains disappearing from my uniform. Seemingly being absorbed into the fabric.
Where does it go? I don't want to know. I have long learned to not question the Gacha.
Putting aside the new Trait going into my pile of traits I held my breath before rolling the Gold Gacha.

Rolling...
An Elite Ability!
[Elite - Byakugan]
|Rarity: Elite| |Class: Breaker, Thinker|
Allows the user to transform their eyes into Byakugans, massively enhancing their perception as well as allowing them to see through solid objects with incredible accuracy.
____________________________
...It's damn good I got that Sartorial Savant because I would have needed a change of underwear with how hard I just busted.
Holy fuck this was the Byakugan.
I mean, it won't be as busted as it was in Naruto with the lack of Chakra and Chakra points to take advantage of. But it should still be applicable with Pressure Points in the body if I bother learning them(I won't). But before I swapped it in I got a new pop-up from my system.
____________________________
You have 15 unique abilities! +1 Ability Slot
____________________________
Wait...
Hasn't it been a while since I got 15 abilities? Hell, I was at 19 right now.
Whatever. I used the new Ability Slot I had open right now and slotted in the Byakugan before activating and- woah!
I felt a sense of very deep cognitive dissonance with my new perception, my vision turned nearly 360 degrees and it felt like the resolution of the world went from 1080p to 32k. I could make out the individual scratches from a pillar a hundred meters away if I focused on it.
But oddly, after a few seconds, it felt like my vision was natural to me again, did the system make me forcefully adapt to my power since it was so unnatural to my natural body?
The Byakugan was actually pretty cool, with a glance, if I just focused enough I could look through any physical obstacle as if it didn't exist. Looking at Toru skipping around I used Byakugan to look through her clothes and leer at her naked body. But unfortunately...
Using Byakugan feels weird, so it's hard to focus on getting it on with it on. But I am sure with some practice I can normalize myself enough to get it on with my eyes like this...!
"Woah! Hakari-kun, you look really intense, and your eyes seem really weird. What are you doing?" Toru skipped toward me and observed my eyes in wonder. I knew how the Byakugan looked and I probably looked like I was staring hard enough to burn paper.
I turned off Byakugan and turned to Toru.
"Sorry, I was admiring your beauty so hard my eye veins must have bulged out." When it doubt, open the can of corn.
Snort.
Toru snorted and hit my shoulder with her hand but I could see the blush on her face.
"Be real, don't tease me like that, seriously, it's bad for my heart." It's bad for my self-esteem when you keep rejecting my advances so stop that please. "I know you have a lot of abilities, was that a new one? How many do you even have?"
"A secret." Telling people how many abilities I had and just how ridiculously fast I gained new ones wasn't a very wise endeavour, I don't want to have to bother explaining myself every time. "Anyway, I think I have an idea of how we can train your skills Toru-chan." I changed the topic expertly but Toru didn't seem to mind it as she bounced excitedly.
"Ooh, what is it? lay it on me Hakari-kun, I can handle it!" I crossed my arms and nodded wisely to make myself look more credible than I was.
"Here is how it's gonna go, you will turn on your invisibility and try to land a hit on me the best you can, any way you can think of to land a hit on me counts, whether its a thrown pebble, a kick, a sweep or even scratching me counts. Don't worry about injuring me, anything short of a bullet can't pierce my skin."
Hearing my words Toru nodded before a blush overcame her face and she turned her head away while fiddling with her fingers.
"U-um, Hakari-kun, I still need to get n-naked to use my powers you know?"
I widened my eyes and made my voice even staler than usual.
"Oh no, what a tragedy. Don't worry, out of consideration for you I will only stare intensely with some semblance of restraint." Toru playfully slapped my shoulder again before looking away.
"...Fine, just look away and let me change okay? Even if I am invisible, it's still embarrassing." I obliged, turning away from her and facing the wall and counting the grooves on it before Toru signalled that I could turn around again.
And there was nothing.
"Hehe~ still works!" Toru cheered while I activated Scary Monsters and transformed myself, massively amplifying my stats but I didn't turn as much as I normally would have, so there was no tail and my face didn't turn demonic, only my eyes looked reptilian now.
"Alright then, start!" Immediately the mood changed as Toru got serious and started moving toward me, with my enhanced ears I could hear the sounds of her feet meeting the ground as she ran toward me. I closed my eyes and sidestepped her.
"Whoa how did you-?" I smirked.
"Noise, your advantage is stealth, don't squander it with loud noises and overtness. Keep goin', I'll be here until you give up." Toru made the right decision by not making noise instead I noticed her footsteps got way lighter as she started actually sneaking around.
She has potential.

"Huff huff, I am completely spent~! I don't think I can move a single muscle more." In the end, Toru had indeed failed to land a hit on me, it wasn't her fault though, my list of reflexes and other senses bordered on precognition at this point. She did pretty well, all things considered, she and Toga would be a lethal team.
"Hey, good job, ya did well." I bent over slightly and extended the water bottle slightly toward where I assumed Toru to be since she was still invisible.
"Ah, thank you Hakari-kun, I am parched!" Toru took the water from my hands before, without realizing, dropping her invisibility. Without any clothes on.
Without realizing it, Toru left herself completely naked without a shred of clothing in front of me. My eyes were glued to her chest slowly going up and down as she heaved breaths, the stray droplet of water tracing a line down her cheek, down her breasts tracing her perfect mix of athletic and plush body.
"Whew, thanks for the water. Huh? What are you looking at Hakari-kun...? Eh-!?" Toru still wasn't used to being visible so being naked wasn't something she exactly registered. And the moment she noticed that she was naked right now she blushed so hard I was impressed she didn't melt where she stood.
But despite what I expected, instead of freaking out or shouting she tried to act cool and composed like she was mature by just turning to me without covering up but I saw her eyes basically in spirals and her face was redder than blood.
"He-hehe, it seems like I f-forgot my clothes before transforming. W-w-well, I am sure you d-don't mind Hakari-kun." She said stuttering as she stood up trying to appear casual while I just stood flabbergasted at just whatever it was she was trying to do.
"W-well, I should probably get d-dressed." She said walking over to her pile of clothes on the ground while I tried to understand why she was doing so not invisible before it clicked.
My enhanced sense of smell picked out the distinct smell of arousal in the air, I could see Toru peeking slightly as she bent over to pick up her clothes and I could see the thin glistening of fluid running down her leg slightly.
The invisible girl was an exhibitionist.
What irony.

~3rd Person - Izuku Midoriya~
'Still just missing something...'
Izuku stared at his hand as he walked down the school hallway, as Hakari had advised him, he had started trying to get a better handle on limiting the usage of OFA's strength, to mixed results.
While he was able to use OFA at around 5%, it wasn't reliable at all, or at least as reliable as he wanted it to be. Sometimes it flickered out before he even threw the punch because he was holding onto it too much or he would accidentally use too much power and strain his arm. Thankfully, he had yet to destroy a part of the school with a 100% punch.
As he thought of possible ways to overcome the hurdle during the free period his thoughts suddenly halted when Izuku experienced the feeling of suddenly being lifted up by the back of his collar like a kitten.
"Oh great, Deku, you're here, just the guy I wanted to find. Here, I need ya to come with me." Izuku flailed around it a panic that failed to shake Hakari's grip even a little.
"H-Hakari-kun? W-what? What's going on!?"
"Training's what's going to go on soon. I heard you were still struggling with your quirk and I decided to help, now let's go, we're burning daylight over here." Without room for objection, Izuku could only hang his head low as Hakari quickly dashed away at inhuman speeds leaving Izuku to hang on for dear life.
⚀—⚁⚂⚃—⚄—•⚅•—⚄—⚃⚂⚁—⚀
"So? What exactly are we doing Hakari-kun? You didn't exactly explain before dragging me here." Hakari simply stood with his arms crossed, his tall and muscular stature giving him an imposing figure but his friendly smile helped ease the intimidating mood.
"It's simple, since I have nothing better to do I will help you get down using One For All properly and consistently." Izuku's eyes widened.
"W-wait, you know about One for All!?" I thought it was a secret!"
"Yeah it is, and I am a man of many secrets, don't worry, All Might knows I know. Now listen up, lesson one. I want you to jump onto the top of that tree with one leap using all for one. If you can do that, that means you have enough control for lesson two." Hearing Hakari's words Izuku's eyes widened as he covered his mouth and started mumbling.
He was right, he hadn't thought of training or testing himself using an exercise like that but it made complete sense. A fire of passion lit in Izuku's eyes as he nodded to himself.
"I am glad you like this exercise that passionately. If you want you can ask me for help with anything but otherwise I won't interfere. Don't worry about hurting yourself, I can lend you a healing power for a bit so go wild. Or go... restrained I guess. Good luck" With that Hakari sat down on a nearby rock and checked his phone but Deku knew better from the rumbling of the water body nearby Hakari. He was still training even though he looked like he was resting.
"I won't let you down!" Hakari smirked at his words.
"You better not, if you do I will just have to go harder on you to make sure you don't."

~Kotaro Hakari~
I'll be honest, I came up with the idea of training Izuku because I was left frustrated after Toru had dipped out of the training zone rather quickly after her shame had caught up with her. So I decided to whip up Izuku into shape and maybe slap him around a little.
I needed my new buddy to get stronger faster than he did in canon, the world was unpredictable right now and I knew that in canon he already barely won there. And now with Potato Man being more proactive, he needed to get stronger faster.
Though, I had to admit, as expected of a protagonist he picked things up rather quickly, sure, he is a little special in the head but he was competent which was what was important. He managed to complete what I told him to do in around 30 minutes so he was probably ready to use full cowling without potentially popping his limbs off.
"All right, Deku, remember, spread the power evenly all over your body. Don't force it too much, let the quirk do what it was originally meant to do." Deku nodded at my words and got into a position like he was going to go super saiyan or take a shit.
His skin briefly glowed orange with energized red veins across it as I stood by his side ready to knock him out if he put in too much power and snapped his entire skeleton in half but my worries were unfounded when the orange glow faded into a more subdued green glow across his whole body with the occasional spark of energy flying out of him.
Deku looked really strained but gave me a proud smile anyway.
"I... did it Hakari-kun!"
I nodded with an excited smile on my face, 5% Deku was pretty strong, right? I haven't gotten a proper sparring partner I could use Scary Monsters or Phase Shift against.
"Good, are you ready for the next step?"
"I am not sure if I can even move like this!"
"Close enough."
I'm gonna make a man out of you.
A/N: The Gacha continues to bless Hakari with Elite abilities from the gold gacha, his luck has been really good recently, it would be such a shame if fate suddenly swung back at him in some way. Also, who would have guessed the invisible girl for a freak? But, well, she did mention wanting to be seen when she was talking to Hakari. What did you guys think about Toru and her new kind of freak added to Hakari's deck of freaky girls?
Hakari has decided to train up his new buddy because the USJ showed that things aren't gonna go as smoothly as anyone would like so he decided, why not make the original protagonist even stronger in order to have some help facing the potato man? Yes, Hakari did decide they were buddies after what happened in USJ.
