The Child Of The Star

Chapter 48

Yoriichi stretched as he walked out of his cabin, his unique red eyes landed on one of the most beautiful things he had ever seen since he had transmigrated into this world. With soft inaudible footsteps, he walked forward and his hands rested on the steel railing. As if to acknowledge his presence the light of the world rose on the horizon and the rays of the star hit the ocean in front of him. Turning the dark colourless waterbody into a mixture of blue, red, orange and white mixing each colour with harmony yet making sure each stood out. Yoriichi stood there enjoying the art of mother nature, even as his senses were almost overloaded with the ridiculous amount of multiple different chakra signatures, the most that stood out was the nature chakra he could feel. His eyes allowed him to pathways or more like the ocean currents through which the nature chakra flowed, he could almost feel some kind of aftershocks hit his nerves that made him shiver slightly. 

Yoriichi: 'I guess this is why nature chakra is said to be difficult to master. This kind of power is almost too overwhelming for a human'

The thought somehow made him smile yet humbled him. Giving the beautiful scene in front of him one last look, Yoriichi turned around and made his way towards the mess of the large ship he was on. Contrary to what he had planned their stay in the Yugakure had only been a day long before Asama found them a boat. From what he remembers listening to their conversations and the movie, Koyuki was currently unaware of their current destination. Mostly due to her own arrogance and ignorance. 

Yoriichi stopped in front of the mess door, his eyes narrowed, raising his hands he straightened his haori and ran a hand through his long bright red hair. His lips stretched into a smile as he opened the door and stepped into the room. The closed behind him with a soft creak as his eyes landed on the blooded captain of the ship before turning to the people responsible for the mess in the mess hall.

Yoriichi: It's a fine morning, isn't it gentlemen?

Everyone froze as the people wearing black clothes and armour looked at him. The captain's eyes widened in surprise at his presence as Yoriichi gave the ten mercenaries a soft, prince-like smile that would make any woman fall in love with him.

Yukie entered the room, the emotionless look fixed on her face as always, her appearance sharp and royal-like as she portrayed in her films. Just as she stepped into the room, the smell of delicious food hit her like a punch to the face, it made her drool and almost broke her emotionless expression before she got a hold of herself. Her eyes scanned the room seeing most of the hired crew of the ship and her team eating what appeared to be a large feast. Asama entered the room and unlike herself drooled when the smell of food hit him as well. Yukie didn't mind as Asama ran towards the breakfast buffet, her eyes landed on the ship's captain. She could see that he was injured slightly on the head, which for some reason came as unusual to her but she pushed it aside and made her way towards the buffet.

The actress would not admit it to anyone but she liked the variety that had been put on the buffet. She glanced around not seeing Yoriichi, even though she had barely known him for only two days but knew he was a skilled bodyguard. He seldom left her alone but did allow her a good amount of privacy that most of her hired bodyguards never allowed because of how much Asama would pay them. Just as she was picking up her food, the door behind the buffet opened and her eyes widened in surprise.

Yoriichi: Chicken refill!

The crowd of crewmen and women roared when Yoriichi made his announcement, it took her a minute to register his appearance. He was wearing a pair of black pants and a shirt that exposed his large muscular arms with a black apron over his shirt, with a white bandana covering his head allowing her to see more of the flame tattoo over his forehead. He gave her a grin as he put the food tray in the chafing dish.
