9 Rokushiki Appear Again

Snow Wind Family Training Ground

In front of Ye Xinghan, stood a lean youngster around 15 years old.

Noble families in Glory City sponsored many apprentices outside of their family member, this is an acceptable practice.

They choose promising ones among commoner that attended the academy. The purpose was to train the leadership of family member inside the academy, and finally absorb them as subordinate when they graduated.

The commoners that were chosen, also received the favors of powerful clans. This will helps a lot of their future training, as well as their duty to provide for their own family.

Its win-win situation for both sides.

And the youngster was one of the commoner chosen by Snow Wind Family as they expected him to reach at least Silver ranked demon spiritualist in the future.

"Young master Xinghan, this is Lin Ming. He will be your sparing partner today." Head Servant Feng beckoned the youngster to step forward, as he retreated a bit to the side. He will oversee the spar to avoid any accident.

"Greetings young master, please show mercy on me." Lin Ming cupped his hands, and took a battle pose.

Ye Xinghuan nodded, and readied his stance. "Please show mercy on me too."

"3, 2, 1. Sentou kaishi!." Head Servant Feng shouted loudly. (The pre battle voice from naruto's game if anyone knows?)

"Young master, be careful!" Lin Ming rushed forward and punched at Ye Xinghan direction. He was after all has the advantage, so its a shame for him if he was the one who passively defends

Ye Xinghan narrowly dodged the punch, before delivering counter attack blow to the opponent's jaw.

Lin Ming saw what Ye Xinghan did, but he purposelly didn't dodge nor defend. After all, Ye Xinghan has yet to cultivate anything. There's no way he could deal any serious damage to someone of Lin Ming's level.

Sure enough...

*PENG*

Ye Xinghan felt as if he punched a wall. He immediately took distance with a single leap backward. He saw his right hand, slightly red. And then he saw his opponent.

Lin Ming stood there totally unfazed. He didn't have any mocking gazes either. Because he knew, there is nothing to be proud of for winning against a child.

"Come again!" Ye Xinghan shouted. Lin Ming rushed again issuing a series of punches. Of course he didn't use all of his power, fear of accidentally injured the young master.

Ye Xinghan dodged the punches desperately, he totally relied on his combat experiences in One Piece world. His instincts and perception dulled following the experiences of the body.

It was like when you have a level 100 game account with complete set of skills, suddenly dropped to level 1 with your active and passive skills got reset. All he had now was the memory and knowledge to grind again to level 100.

His new body didn't have inadequate strength to back up his experiences. So, Ye Xinghan continously got cornered. Until..

'BAAM'

One of Lin Ming punch striked accurately at Ye Xinghan chest. It sent him flying backward for about 5 metres.

'Sigh, I guess it was too soon after all for young master to face 3 star ranked bronze fighter. Hope this will teach him some lessons.' Head Servant Feng sighed inwardly. He raised his hand to announce the end of the battle, when suddenly..

"Wait, its not over yet." Ye Xinghan stands up. There was a few cuts and bruises on his face. But, he felt there was no internal injury at all. He could still move freely as usual.

'This guy Lin Ming is quite talented, he could perfectly control his power to not badly injuring me. He is neither too humble nor too arrogant.' Ye Xinghan thought as he looked at Lin Ming appreciatively.

It may look like Ye Xinghan was too hasty with his progress for suddenly picking up an opponent far beyond his level, other people will think that he chew more than he can swallow. (No need to explain right?)

But actually, he's gonna use the earlier fight to compare. Comparing the reflexes and instincts, before and after the use of devil fruit.

"Lin Ming isn't it? Thank you for deliberately limiting your punches to my level. Let us have one more round." Ye Xinghan smiled as he readied his stance again. He channeled a bit of his light devil fruit into his brain. The same amount as when he learned the ancient empire languages.

Head Servant Feng shook his head and sighed. 'Do as the boss says' He raised his hand, and start counting

"3 , 2 , 1. Sentou Kaishi!"

Lin Ming rushed again at Ye Xinghan. Using the same amount of power as he thought enough to deal with Ye Xinghan.

But, at this time. There was a world difference vision in Ye Xinghan eyes.

He could see that Lin Ming moves slower than usual.

'Is this time dilation?' Ye Xinghan thought. It was not as if his body could move faster than normal, but his vision could perceive a slower rate of time compared to normal.

'When an object moves at the speed of lights, the way it sees the world around is frozen or stagnant. In other words, when you achieved the speed of light, you will stop the time itself.'

So, Lin Ming appeared slow was not actually him slowing down. But, because Ye Xinghan's brain moves faster than normal human. His perception and reaction have reached the speed that no one can compare.

This is his newest discovery.

Back to battle, Ye Xinghan easily dodged the punch. Lin Ming continued again with barrage of punches. But it appears, Ye Xinghan could still easily dodged all of them. And he looked so relaxed.

Lin Ming frowned, and he increased the speed of his punches. But even after he use his maximum speed, Ye Xinghan could still dodged them albeit strugglingly.

Head Servant Feng thoughtfully observed Ye Xinghan. 'What actually happened? Lin Ming is better than most 3 star bronze rank, and yet he couldn't even land a hit to young master Xinghan.'

Finally, Lin Ming sent a kick towards Ye Xinghan. But, as Ye Xinghan could now react faster, he stepped on the incoming kick, and the force of the kick propelled him to the sky.

'Okay, its time to end this battle.' Ye Xinghan thought while he was still in the sky. There was some distance from Lin Ming and the spot he will land to.

'SORU' Ye Xinghan immediately use pseudo soru as soon as he landed and moved towards his opponent.

'So fast!' Head Servant Feng and Lin Ming widened their eyes.

'I can't deal any substantial damage to Lin Ming if I use ordinary punch, and i don't want to expose my devil fruit now. I guess there is only one way left.' Ye Xinghan eyes glinted. He is gonna use one of the famous rokushiki move.

He channeled his devil fruit to his shoulder bone and elbow joint. This will prevent some damage done to this immature body.

'SHIGAN' Ye Xinghan didn't use his finger, but his elbow instead. He aimed to achieve aerial damage, not penetration damage. And the devil fruit will boost his arm speed when he swung his elbow.

Lin Ming sensed the danger, and immediately crossed his hand in front of his chest.

'BBAAAAMM' The elbow connects, sending Lin Ming flying towards nearby boulder and crashed it. There was some blood trickling on the corner of his mouth.

Head Servant Feng saw the result and slack jawed.

"Alright, lets leave it at this." Ye Xinghan clapped his hands, waking Headservant up from his stupor.

"Headservant Feng, please check Lin Ming injury and immediately treat it if there are any serious problem."

"Yes young master"

Ye Xinghan nodded and went back to change his clothes. The purpose of this spar has achieved.

'Hmmm, the state of when i channeled the devil fruit to my brain was so overpowered. Lets call that state as...'

'God Speed Impulse'

(U know Agon Kongo from Eyeshield 21?)
