45 Growth Peroid

A/N: Changing Goku Uniform to Ultima Uniform so theirs no confusion. Ultima Uniforms are the clothes Shen made out of Life Fibers by the way. Life Fibers and the Uniforms are from Kill la Kill so check the wiki if you are confused.

After receiving information from the Jinn, Shen didn't waste any time whatsoever. For the next three days, he began formulating his plan of action. The first and most important thing was raising the strength of his forces. That meant everyone needed to become stronger. Along with that, he needed the Faunus from Menagerie.

He held massive influence over the Faunus on the main continent and in each nation. However, the bulk of the Faunus Race was contained on a separate landmass entirely. It was overpopulated due to how many people live there. The place where humanity decided to shove the Faunus off so they didn't have to deal with them, hidden behind the act of 'Peace'.

Since it was a Faunus-related matter he decided to simply let Sienna deal with it. Of course, she couldn't fully be trusted so he made sure to imply the proper 'incentive'. Next was handling the matter of Raven and the Relic of Knowledge. Shen was actually wrong about one thing. The Maiden's power truly was greater than he ever expected.

Initially, he planned on simply ignoring them, but now he was interested. The only issue was that the Maiden's powers can only be passed down through the original's death. After that, the powers will go to someone who is in the Maiden's last thoughts. If not then they will simply go to a random person. Sadly the powers couldn't go to a man.

Sadly Raven's mindset would make controlling that power difficult. He had broken her quite thoroughly in their battle but he couldn't kill her with her mind like that. He also couldn't control her using Mental Refitting or the powers would attempt to him and then be lost. It was a delicate situation, a System set up so that the powers couldn't be abused.

"You had told everyone you would be gone for two months. But why didn't you tell them you were bringing me with you?" Breaking from his thought's Shen looked up and saw Taella across from him. At the moment they were riding in an airship thousand's of meters in the air.

"Because I'm going to be training you myself. Everyone else's abilities are straightforward enough. They don't need me to hold their hands. However, the potential behind the Demon's Extract is going to require something extra. There's more to it than just making ice and snow." Esdeath the original user of the ability proved that.

She could utilize her abilities so well she could literally freeze time and summon meteors made of ice that might give Madara a run for his money. Currently, Taella was nowhere near that level.

"Oh, then where are we going?" The airship they were on was currently flying over the sea. They had left the mainland quite some time ago. However, Taella had never heard of any islands or anything at all for that matter is this far out.

"You remember what I told you about the Gods?" Taella nodded.

"Of course. I'm still trying to digest the fact God actually exists let alone two of them."

"Right, so you should also know that Grim are creations of the God of Darkness. He was jealous and fickle in nature of his elder brother the God of Light. As such his creations carried that same emotion and that mixed with his inert desire to destroy manifested itself. As such Grim are drawn to the Relics and destroy without reason."

In short, the God of Darkness's creations were drawn to his brothers.

"So what place do you think would have the most amount of Grim in the world?" Suddenly the look on Taella's face grew fearful. In the complete opposite Shen's face slowly grew into a smile. A loud and vicious roar echoed into the airship as the two of them glanced out of the side view windows.

Looking down they saw something massive burst from the sea. Like most Grim, its body was dark but had large white scales coating its underbelly. Red glowing marks lined its body and skeleton-like head. You could easily compare it to a Chinese dragon or serpent except for the wings on its back.

"A Sea Feilong!" Taella yelled as Shen stood up and grabbed her by the shirt. Without a second of hesitation, he kicked open the airship doors and jumped out pulling Taella with him. The next second the Sea Feilong opened its mouth revealing a ball of pure yellow lightning. Firing it aimed straight for the Airship they were just in.

It exploded on impact as the Sea Feilong let out a roar before flying down back into the sea. Freefalling through the air Taella was panicking as Shen spoke to her.

"Welcome to the home of the God of Light. This is where we will be training for the next two months." He had been neglecting his poor System for too long. Now it was going to get all the attention it deserved.

Despite it only being a few days, things back on the mainland had begun to advance. Both Neo and Torchwick took Shen's words seriously when it involved getting stronger. Luckily thanks to Lionheart being fully submissive they were able to take advantage of Mistral's training grounds. Though now they looked more like a war zone.

"Not bad Neo." Vaulting using his cane Torckwick quickly dodged out of the way. The next second a large blade that was completely black in color pierced through the ground where he was standing. This was of course a result of Neo's ability.

She was standing over sixty feet away from Torchwick however she was still able to produce pinpoint Illusions. Her eye's flinched as she activated her semblance once more. The large blade that had jettisoned from the ground disappeared as a shadow was cast over Torchwick.

Looking behind him he saw a gigantic pair of jaws ready to clamp down on his body.

"Still your Illusions aren't quite solid enough." Raising his cane Torchwick aimed its end directly behind him. The next second a red beam of energy fired out of the cane. Before the jaws could even close the beam pierced through the illusion causing it to crack and then fall apart.

Now would be a good moment to know. Torckwick wasn't in his normal state like he usually was. Instead. His topcoat and hat were completely black and white, and his cane looked different as well. Its design had changed looking more regal as Life Fiber's coarse and decorated its shell.

This was his Ultima Uniforms transformed state or at least an incomplete version of it. He still hadn't mastered it which could be seen from the way the ends of both his coat and hat seemed unfinished. They were like ripped cloth. Still, the ability it provided was one that surprised both him and Neo originally.

Pointing his staff towards Neo he let out another blast. The beam was fast and Neo seemed not to react in time as it pierced her chest. A shocked expression appeared on her face, but quickly her body began to shatter. Each of the shattered pieces then began to warp themselves becoming a clone of Neo.

When the process was done there were over a hundred of her. Whistling in impressed fashion Torckwick swirled the cane in his hand. Putting his hands together the cane transformed into two separate guns. He aimed them at the Neo clones as each one drew a blade form their umbrellas.

Rushing all at once Torchwick let loose on the trigger. Both guns fired at the same time shooting beams of red energy. They looked weaker and smaller than the one-shot from his cane originally. However, their rate of fire was insane. In seconds dozens of Neo's clones shattered apart.

However, it was in the midst of firing that Torchwick heard a footstep come from directly behind him. The gun's in his hands suddenly stopped firing as they morphed themselves once again. Becoming a pair of red sword's he turned preparing to slice as the air behind him. But before he could even swing he felt something cold against his neck.

Instead of behind him like he had thought Neo was standing to his right with her blade drawn. Although she still had a composed look on her face she was sweating clearly exhausted. Glancing at her Torchwick shrugged.

"Well I've reached my limit too it's your win." As he said that his transformed look vanished and the swords in his hands turned back into his cane normal. The limits both of their abilities had were linked to concentration and stamina.

Neo was capable of creating practically anything with her illusions. Paired with the ability to make the people within her Kunai's range feel pain from them it was a powerful ability no doubt. However the more complex and large scale the illusion's the more exhausted she becomes.

At the Branwen Tribe, she had pushed herself extremely hard creating illusions over all of the people there while also creating all of those soldiers and individual battles. As for Torchwick, his ability suited his crafty and sly nature.

If he could handle the exhaustion he could create almost any type of weapon and transform his cane as much as he wanted. Within the bounds that the weapon itself was thought out and practical. Mixed with his quick thinking it suited him. At their current level, they could fight for over an hour.

As for what they would be capable of with two months of training? Well, it was a terrifying prospect. One Shen, in particular, was looking forward to. Of course, it was impossible for everything that was happening in Mistral to go unnoticed. There were always going to be people too smart for even Shen to properly predict.

As such he needed a spy, someone to keep an eye on those kinds of factors. The biggest one being Beacon Academy, the place where the RWBY story is set for the first season. And of course, the place where Ozpin the Headmaster and Reincarnator resided.

The bane to Salem's existence who dead set to stop her under the God of Light's power. So in terms of being a spy, who was a better fit for this kind of task if not one of the Main Characters themselves?

"Since this is still the beginning of your time here at Beacon Academy I'll introduce myself. I am Glynda Goodwitch. I will be in charge of today's sparring class. First up we have Cardin Winchester going against Blake Belladonna."
