Synopsis

Chapter 1 - chapter 1

First of all, this is because I'm bored, so whether I continue or not depends on my mood. I clarify this to avoid the mistake I made with my previous fanfic, where I committed to X chapters per week and ended up losing the will to write. And one more thing, I will try to stick to the canon, but if I feel like it, I will skip some chronological events.

--- REAL WORLD ---

"HAA", "HAA", "HAAAA", "OH, IT FEELS SO GOOD TO TRAIN AGAIN," I said while wiping the sweat off my face after a hard training session, inspired by watching Cobra Kai.

'Well, it's better to take a shower since I'm all sweaty,' I thought as I walked to the bathroom, but just before I reached it, I felt a sharp pain in my chest and collapsed to the ground. "AHHH DAMN IT, THIS DAMN DISEASE!" I screamed as the pain only increased, but suddenly, I felt nothing, and I could see nothing.

"What happened? Am I blind? Am I dead?" I asked myself, and the next moment, my surroundings lit up. "Ding ding ding, congratulations soul number 10,000,001 for dying." I couldn't see who was talking, only a bright white light everywhere. "Who's speaking?" I asked.

"Oh, sorry for my manners. I haven't introduced myself. I am what you know as God in your world, and I'm in charge of the reincarnation cycle," said the voice in a somewhat polite and cheerful tone.

"So, I'm dead. Wait, if I'm here, does that mean I'll reincarnate in some fanfic?" I asked.

"Of course, although normally when you reincarnate, you lose your memories, but because you are soul number 10,000,001, you will be rewarded with the option to choose the world and the person you want to reincarnate as. Along with that, you will receive two random powers or abilities depending on the world you choose, and of course, with your memories intact."

"Hmm," I thought about where I could reincarnate, but a moment later, a world came to mind. "I'd like to reincarnate in Cobra Kai, as Miguel Diaz," I said.

"Okay, that's no problem. Just wait a moment," the voice replied. Then, it snapped its fingers, and two giant rules appeared in front of me with a bunch of letters I didn't understand, along with a large button in front of them.

"You can press the button to spin them, and another to stop them and see what powers you'll get. Don't worry about the words; once you obtain the ability or power, they will be revealed. Protocols," the voice said.

Without hesitation, I pressed the button in front of me, and immediately the roulettes started spinning. Three seconds later, I pressed the button again, and both stopped, with the content inside glowing and beginning to translate for me.

DOUBLE TRAINING – 100% increase in experience gained from any form of learning, whether training, reading, or fighting. For example, if you train karate for a week, it's equivalent to two weeks.

MISSION SYSTEM – As the name suggests, it gives missions to the user periodically. The rewards can be monetary or some skill or item (nothing too powerful considering the Cobra Kai power scale).

"Oh, what an interesting combination. But you better go to your new world now; I have more souls to reincarnate," said the voice, and before I could say anything, everything went black again.

--- COBRA KAI WORLD ---

"Haa," "Here, take this," "AAAAHH!" I opened my eyes, and the first thing I noticed was Johnny Lawrence beating up some guys. 'So this is it,' I thought while touching my head and feeling some liquid. I looked at my hand, and it was pink liquid. I shook my hand and ignored it.

"AAAHHHHH!" screamed the fat guy from the group as he ran towards Johnny. By reflex, I stepped forward and sent him to the ground with a straight kick. Right after that, the police arrived and took Johnny away.

I grabbed a shirt that was lying on the ground and wiped the medicine out of my hair. I left the shirt and picked up a wallet that was also on the floor, took just enough money to buy more medicine, bought it, and headed home.

--- HOME ---

'What an entrance I had into this world. I should have specified when I wanted to reincarnate, but oh well,' I thought as I lay down in my bed. I quickly remembered something and mentally said, 'System.' In front of me, a transparent screen appeared, which only said "MISSIONS" at the top, and there were no missions for now.

'Oh, what's this?' I wondered, seeing an arrow pointing right in the lower-right corner. I mentally pressed it, and another window popped up that said:

ABILITIES: DOUBLE TRAINING

ITEMS:

"Interesting," I thought, and I yawned involuntarily. I then said, "I better go to sleep since tomorrow I'll start my training without fail. How exciting!" I got comfortable and fell asleep. "zzz zzz zzz."

--- THE NEXT DAY --- (After school)

"Haa, haa, haa, HAAAA!" I shouted as I finished the last set of my first workout and heard footsteps. I turned around and saw Johnny walking to his apartment.

"Hey, kid, if what you're training is karate, you'd better quit. You're gonna ruin your life," he said, and without another word, he went into his room. I just smiled and went inside to take a shower.

"Oh, it feels so good to take a shower after a good workout," I told myself, concentrating on my body. I felt stronger. I knew it was just the post-workout illusion, but maybe it was part of my ability. 'Well, now I wait for tomorrow, the day Cobra Kai is reborn from the ashes.'

--- THE NEXT DAY ---

After another boring and simple school day, since I already knew what was being taught from my previous life, and what I didn't know was easier to understand, I was about to start training when I saw Johnny approaching me with two pieces of paper in his hand. With a smile, I asked, "What do you need?" and he answered, "Kid, you're training karate, right? How about training in a real dojo?"

"Are you saying you'll be my sensei?" I asked, and he replied, "Yes, but it won't be easy, kid. You'll have to push yourself hard and leave the fear behind to become a Cobra Kai."

"Cobra Kai?" I asked.

"Yes, that's the name of the dojo. Being a Cobra Kai is more than just being a karateka. It's STRIKE FIRST, STRIKE HARD, NO MERCY. Are you ready for that, kid?" Johnny said enthusiastically.

With a smile, I replied, "Of course, Sensei."
