Training
They were on the same Island where Rayleigh used to train Luffy. The island was full of dangerous beasts like Hancock remembered.
"Now I only agreed to train you Hancock. Silver, there are many other areas where you can develop. So before you learn haki, I recommend you to increase your physical condition.
As per Hancock, it will take time for your body to reach it's peak condition. So we are going to focus on your haki instead. Your goal is to dodge my serious attacks and kill our food without touching it. I know that I don't need to remind you that your sisters fate depends on you." Rayleigh said in a serious voice.
"I know."
"Our time is short so I am not going to teach you in normal method. And besides you are already quite proficient with basic haki. You will be learning while fighting against me and other animals in this Island."
...
The entire training period was brutal. Especially the first three months. Hancock was sure that if not for her armament haki, her entire body would have been filled with scars. At first Rayleigh made for fight with giant bears with very thick skin. Even with her armament haki, she was unable to put even a single scratch on the bear. She could only dodge its attacks. But for something so big, the bear was surprisingly fast. So her observation hockey was also put into test. Then she realised another problem. Even when she could see the attacks were coming, her body was unable to respond in time. That was the reason she lost the count of how many times the bear threw her away with it's paw strike like a ragdoll. Her only saving Grace was the armament haki, that she used to cover or entire body with.
So for the first few days this routine continued, until she was able to dodge The attacks of the bear with out getting hit. But still there was no progress in her armament haki. She could emit the haki, but the internal destruction that Rayleigh talked about was really far away from her reach. After the first month of speed training she finally faced the dark king.
No need to say that she got beaten thoroughly. Rayleigh was merciless when it comes to training. He was fast, very fast. So fast that she could barely catch his movements with her observation haki. And it was really a hard blow, when serialised that he was going easy on her. Rayleigh was not using sword against her. But there was no need either. His natural armament haki was superior to her's. And with his own emission, he used to beat her black and blue. After 3 months of severe beating she finally able to see a few seconds in the future. Although it was an accomplishment in itself, she got still beaten as her speed was not enough to match Rayleigh. Naturally her armament haki improved as well. But still she couldn't grasp the concept of internal destruction.
...
"Since last month, there is no improvement in your armament haki.
But it is not your fault. Your body is going through changes. Your natural strength is increasing with the growth of your body. That's why you are not facing enough challenge from the animals in this Island."
Hancock understood the meaning behind Rayleigh's words.
Unlike her previous life where her body was malnutrited, due to her slavery, in this life it was different. She has already grown to an impressive height of 5'1" at the age of 12. Her breasts have started growing. And the shape of her body was changing to more feminine shape. But along with her body her strength has also increased quite a lot. Now she could take down giant tigers with a single strike.
"And as per my fight against you, you are not showing any progress either. That's because you are not facing any life and death situation from fighting me. Subconsciously you think that I won't harm you that's why your growth is lacking. " Rayleigh said to Hancock.
"So what should I do ?" Hancock asked Rayleigh. With her change in personality, she has begun to see the world differently. There was once a time when she prided herself for being the most beautiful woman in the world. But she has understood that without strength, her arrogance has no meaning. She has understood the beauty of small things in life. At the beginning of her training deep inside her mind, she was somewhat afraid that her beauty would get diminished in the training. But for her sisters she has hardened her heart. But later she understood that Luffy won't care if she is the ugliest woman in the world. And that's all it mattered for Hancock.
After four months of training Silver has also managed to learn observation haki. She new about the power of haki. But she didn't have access to it. But now she has grown a lot.
"Like I said earlier, any further training from me would be meaningless. Your body has manage to grow to the point where you can dodge my serious attacks. You can see almost ten seconds to the future. So why don't you guess what I am going to tell you ?" Rayleigh said smiling.
"You should face some strong opponents that might pose some real threat for you. Sorry to say this but our training is no longer effective." Hancock said after seeing the future.
Then she went into deep thought understanding the meaning of her own words. She realised that what Rayleigh said, is true. But she will never get a real opponent in the paradise. With her increased strength, she doubted that she won't get into any real life threatening situation. So her only option is going to the new world.
She didn't wanted any unwanted attention of world government . Not until she freed her sisters. That's why her only option was bounty hunting in the new world.
