Blazelight (Roronoa Zoro x Assassin Reader)

Duel

Many pirates immediately knew what was going on, and started panicking. That woman was dangerous, and had been fed a devil fruit. A fallen angel.

Little did they know, that was her epithet.

A black blur shot through the myriad of pirates and marines, giving them a shock. The fallen angel had one objective. The woman who, if (Y/N) didn't intervene, would've killed her one and only love. Only seconds before, Zoro had shouted out from the crowd: "BE CAREFUL, I WON'T LOSE YOU AGAIN."

(Y/N) just smiled when She was Face to face with Reiko.

"Psshh, what could happen to her strength if she had only eaten another devil fru-"

She was interrupted by a fist appearing seemingly out of nowhere.

A sharp pain surged through Reiko's face as she stepped a few steps back, clutching her face before looking up with a scrowl.

Reiko got a surprise as the other assassin punched her in the face hard in a black blur. Normally, she would give her opponent a concussion, but this time, she didn't see anything. Just a split millisecond of black before another sharp, blunt pain surged through her neck.

(Y/N)'s speed had increased by a dozen kilometres per hour.

"Ne-chan." (Y/N) said with the same cold tone of voice that her mentor had spoken to her. "Let's have a bet on who dies first, shall we?"

Reiko smiled.

'Bring it on.' She smiled as she ran towards her.

(Y/N)'s reflexes have improved along with her speed, and when Reiko threw a gloved fist at (Y/N), she dodged without any difficulty.

Reiko didn't expect a punch appearing seemingly out of nowhere, one that she couldn't dodge or block. It bashed her square in the face, knocking her backwards. That punch was surged with power, and was much stronger than any of her other punches before. Reiko looked up looking for the (H/C) Fallen angel, but she didn't need to anymore as the same rival she was looking for appeared out of nowhere behind Reiko, and tapped random points around her spine. Reiko fell down, paralysed.

"Hey c'mon, you were the one who taught me that." (Y/N) smiled, picking up a nearby fallen cutlas and ready to pierce Reiko's body.

However, as the effects of the younger assassin jabbing several pressure points on the older assassins body wore off, Reiko threw herself to her attacker, but the angel dodged, accidentally dropping the cutlas. As soon as Reiko threw her cutlas at her, (Y/N) summoned a black bracelet, blocking the attack with her forearm, much to Reiko's surprise. Reiko continued to attack with insanely strong blows with a feral-like fighting style. (Y/N) could tell that she had lost roughly 15% of her sanity, while her attacks grew stronger and quicker as her bloodlust increased, making them harder and harder to dodge. Finally, Reiko pierced (Y/N)'s defence as she stabbed (Y/N)'s wrist. Pain shot through her arm as a yell travelled through the air, making Reiko's ears ring.

"Pathetic." Reiko giggled. "How pathetic."

She retracted her cutlas, with blood gushing out (Y/N)'s wound while she tried to stop the bleeding, stumbling backwards as her teeth clenched into a scrowl filled with agony.

"You little bitch, did you really think that someone like you could beat me?" Reiko cackled. Her had lost nearly 1/2 of her sanity. One thing (Y/N) and Reiko have in common, is when they fight for too long, their sanity will drop significantly. (Y/N), who had only 10 years of experience, much less than Reiko, still hadn't managed to learn how to control her sanity so this happened much more often.

"I'll kill you..." (Y/N) shouted through clenched teeth.

"I'LL KILL YOU SO HARD THAT WHEN YOU ENTER YOUR NEXT LIFE YOU'LL BE A STILLBORN!"

She had lost more sanity than her former mentor, as a result, she became more unpredictable by the second, throwing a few surprise attacks that she didn't see coming.

'Really?' Reiko smiled as she stabbed her former apprentice in the shoulder.

'I'd like to see you try.' (Y/N) Stopped, and Screams of pain echoed through the air as blood gushed out of her wounds like a waterfall. Reikos seized the chance to Attack, doing a full 180 front-flip, smashing her Boot heel in her face. The metal taste of blood filled (Y/N)'s mouth as Reiko knocked out a tooth or two.

"BITCH!" (Y/N) slashed her cutlas to attack, but Reiko grabbed the head and snatched it out of her grip, smashing its butt into her neck. She fell back, and tried to Breathe, but couldn't.

'I'm sorry, what was that?' Reiko giggled with cold eyes. 'Watch your mouth young lady, those could be your last words.'

(Y/N)'s vision looked fuzzy, blurry, like a layer of mist over her eyes. She was loosing too much blood.

'Loosing too much blood m'dear?' Reiko laughed as her cold eyes turned snake-like. 'What a shame.'

She wasn't expecting to loose this much energy after a simple resurrection.

She wasn't expecting to lose to her mentor and murderer.

She wasn't expecting to see a green and white blur kick Reiko's face, sending her backwards.
