Chapter-11

After a few days…

*Slash*

With a simple slash, yoriichi cut the Boulder into 2 pieces without any difficulty after understanding what he was doing wrong

He needed to hold that stick like it was part his of body and mentally his haki was able to warp on the stick too

*sigh*

Rayleigh inwardly released a tired sigh seeing this, he couldn't help but think about yoriichi limits or if he had any limits to begin with?

"Good job, kiddo," Rayleigh said as he examined the Boulder which yoriichi just has cut and really appreciated how clean this cut is

He honestly thought yoriichi at least would take weeks or even months to complete this task even with his monstrous talent but it seems he still underestimated his insane talent

"By the kid, I never ask you this but that mark on your face…" Rayleigh asked this as he looked at the big mark on his face because previously he thought it happened due to some injury but now he looked at it with the focus that doesn't seem to be the case

"it was with me from the beginning" yoriichi replied as childhood memories started to come into his mind which was pleasant since this mark was the whole reason why he was called demonic and cursed

"Birthmark?" Rayleigh asked this in confusion because this was his first time seeing such a unique birthmark, in reply yoriichi nodded his head to confirm this

Even though Yoriichi face always has an emotionless face but still Rayleigh able to tell that yoriichi is not happy about this

"now kid you are all set for real-life battles" Rayleigh said as he threw him a wooden stick which yoriichi caught with ease

"Follow me," Rayleigh said as he started to walk, meanwhile yoriichi followed him as he is told been told

While walking they passed the Boa sisters and they seemed to be not doing too well, they were sitting under a big tree big branch blindfolded, the 3 ropes were bound on that branch and the other end of the rope was bound with rocks while the rocks are in motion

Sometimes they are successful dodging and sometimes not, seeing this yoriichi couldn't help but feel worried for them

"Are you worried for them?" Rayleigh asked this as soon he noticed yoriichi staring at them

"Yeah.." yoriichi replied to him in a soft voice, as he kept staring at them, and noticed that Hancock was the one who was doing best out of all three sisters

"Hahahaha, they might be not like you but they still are very talented compared to normal people, especially Hancock," Rayleigh said this since even though might be not compared to yoriichi monstrous talent but still they are a rare talent

They kept walking till they reached deep inside the forest and then finally Rayleigh stops

Yoriichi couldn't help but wonder why he brought him into this place which was full of beasts and other dangers

"Now kid it's time for you to experience real-life combat experience," Rayleigh said and at this exact moment a huge snake appeared behind yoriichi from the huge trees

"Shssss~!" Snake quickly go for a yoriichi since he is smaller and an easy prey to catch than Rayleigh, and at the right moment snake leaps towards yoriichi

Yoriichi quickly jumped sideways as soon he sensed danger and successfully escaped the snake's clutches

Snake didn't stop after failing to catch its prey as snake again leapt towards yoriichi but this time also yoriichi dodged it without any difficult

'This kid got some insane instincts to avoid dangers from all directions, no matter how unfocused he is but that's not the only thing' Rayleigh inwardly said this as he looked at yoriichi who was avoiding every snake attack without any sweat

After observing yoriichi for days, he came to understand that yoriichi isn't some swordsman who used techniques rather yoriichi knows how to swing the sword correctly with his pure instincts

'And that's exactly what makes him more dangerous than expert swordsman' Rayleigh said this in his mind as he watched yoriichi finally attack the snake with the wooden sword that he gave him

*Thud!*

One simple hit on the snake's head, knocked out the giant snake in just a single move because yoriichi used Armament Haki on the wooden sword and hit the snake with enough force using his breathing technique

Rayleigh saw this with a smile on his face since this is the sole reason he gave yoriichi a wooden sword just because he wanted yoriichi to fight without any worries

Yoriichi hates hurting others and that's also the reason why he keeps restraining himself in order to not accidentally kill other people but now with a wooden sword, he can fight without any worries

"Excellent" Rayleigh said as he praised yoriichi for his excellent performance and then continued "But it's only the beginning"

He said this this as several other huge creatures also started to appear from shadows as they moved towards yoriichi

"Be sure to survive, " Rayleigh said as he started to walk back cabin leaving him all alone

…..

After a month…

"Don't slack off when you reach home" Rayleigh said as he looked at the Boa sisters who were ready to go with shakky since she would be the one who gonna take the sisters back

To his words, Boa sisters nodded their heads as they seriously now listen to his words very attentively

In the whole month, the Boa sisters improved alot and now they are not crying babies anymore, not to mention after only training for a month now each one of them enough powerful to protect themselves at least from people who don't know haki

Hancock's improvement is the best out of her sisters, such rapid improvement even surprised Rayleigh but after seeing talent like yoriichi, he wasn't that much shocked
