Chapter 7: Training

(your POV)

Today is being quite calm. Kazuma and the others went to work on a mission to purify water from a lake and they will be out all day. They asked me if I wanted to join the mission, but I told them that I would spend the day training. With threats like Pitou and Dullahan out there, I can't allow them to come back and not be ready to fight against them. Now I am in the forest, knocking down trees with kicks and fists to try to increase my physical strength. At the same time I was practicing with my haki to perfect it, but for now I can only master the reinforcement haki and some of the haki of vision. I know that if I train enough, I may be able to unlock the conqueror king's haki or even be able to predict a bit the future. But for now...

Me: Water smashing fist!

I started hitting a rock multiple times in a combo attack, reducing it to small pebbles. But I also hit those pebbles, turning them into dust. Apparently I managed to increase my speed a bit but I'm sure this is not enough. 

Me: Void quake tigger fist!

My fist had a small tornado around it and with that power I hit a big oak, splitting it in two. The upper part of the oak went flying through the air and slowly fell towards me.

Me: Demonic Leg!

My leg was completely covered with fire and with it I kicked the part of the oak that was falling towards me, turning the oak into ashes in a few moments.

Me: Will that be enough?

???: I don't think so.

I immediately turned around and became pale to see who was behind me. Pitou was sitting in one of the branches of the trees, she was looking at me like a cat to her prey... how ironic.

Pitou: You have potential, but you lack some power.

Me: What are you doing here?

Pitou: Nyahaha! I wanted to play with you a little! After seeing your fight against Fang, you left me wanting some private fun between you and me.

Sweat began to fall from my forehead. I have to fight against one of the demon king's general on my own, an enemy that was above Fang's level. If I want to have even a chance to win I have to fight with everything I have. I took a deep breath and began to focus all my senses on my opponent in the same way that my teacher told me. I slowly got into battle stance, ready to start the battle.

Pitou: Nya?

(no ones POV)

In an instant, you disappeared from the place at a high speed. Pitou's eyes became like those of a snake, attentively following the movements of her prey. Pitou crossed her arms at the same time she turned to the left, blocking a direct punch from you. The force of your punch sent Pitou flying. She went through several trees while being pushed by the force of your attack, but Pitou recovered and stopped her march back using her legs to propel herself from a tree in the distance towards you. Pitou tried to use her claw to stab your face, but you leaned back in time just to evade the fatal attack.

(y/n): Demonic Leg!

You threw a fire-covered kick at Pitou, but she had somehow disappeared before you could hit her.

(y/n): What?!

You felt something holding your other leg and you saw Pitou pulling your foot, she dragged you with her strength from the tree you were standing on and threw you to the ground. You fell on your back on the ground and cough a little blood by the force of the impact.
