Capítulo 11: Chapter 11: I’m still weak…
~Alex POV~
Oh, fuck me…
Looking at Mihawk as he gives me an intimidating glare, he asks me once more, "Tell me intruder what exactly are you doing here on my home?"
Gulp…
Swallowing my spit, I then replied to the man in a scared tone, "Uh… yes I mean no! Wait… sorry but I came over to this island to train in my swordsmanship sorry if I didn't realize that you were here Mihawk sir!"
He comes towards me while placing his Yoru on his back and grabs his small dagger damn…
I feel so disrespected right here but I'm not going to piss a man that can go toe to toe with Shanks at his best.
Mihawk then asks me in a cold voice that sends shivers down my spine, "Young man what was that sword technique you just did?"
Huh?
Oh, I guess he's interested in my new style I'm working on.
Nodding my head to the badass swordsman I tell him what I was working on, "Oh you must mean the Thunder Breathing Style. What I did earlier was the first form thunderclap and flash there are a few more as well I'm working on, but I have to see if I can?"
Mihawk just comes closer to me as I sweat at his intimidation towards me.
I don't know what to feel here be afraid a monster like him is here or the fact I get to meet one of the badass and mysterious characters is here!
As he got a few distances ahead of me he asks me an order, "Show me this Thunder Breathing Style then young man."
Oh, this is so much worse or best I could have asked!
I mean a personal one on one against Mihawk could help me improve my skills.
Putting myself into my sword-style stance Mihawk readies his small dagger as I smirk at him, "Hey! Mihawk if you intend to use that small dagger at me then you might as well as have Haki ready then."
He looks surprised at me when I used my [Armament Haki] as I coated it on my Shusui as he laughs a little towards me, "Ha ha ha… I guess I underestimated you a bit… but this dagger is more than enough for the likes of a beginner like you. But you do get my interest since people from New World learn about Haki."
Damn, I guess that him using Yoru on me is overkill.
But I'll be damn as to not let myself try out my hardest to fight back.
Using the [First Form: Thunderclap and Flash] I rushed towards him intending to cut his chest but…
"Clash!"
"Sheesh!"
It was completely blocked as Mihawk gave me a look that his unamused.
Damn it!
If that doesn't work then how about going to the next step.
Backing myself away from Mihawk I go right next to the next step of the thunderclap and flash.
Getting myself into my stance again I go to [First Form: Six Fold] as I made a quick dash towards him making slicing motions for each time I dash towards him.
However, …
"Clash!"
"Sheesh!"
"Clash!"
"Sheesh!"
"Clash!"
"Sheesh!"
They were blocked every single time as I made an attempt to cut him but that wasn't all the blade Shusui itself was somehow heavier…
That was when Mihawk made his own assumptions about my swordsmanship as he expresses a frown, "Disappointing… you lack any form of starter training of your swordsmanship but with your strength, it's certainly possible since you have Haki knowledge. But that sword of yours won't follow you that easily even if its ability is to give more destructive ability."
Listening to him I already knew that I was lacking in everything about swordsmanship I only have some knowledge of it from Kaku.
But he is right that I don't have much to work off on but that doesn't mean I'll give up here and now!
Getting ready for the next step of my attack Mihawk was nowhere insights but realizing what was happening I used my [Observation Haki] to detect where he was about to strike!
My eyes growing wide as I used my most into my Shusui to block off the Mihawk's blade attack coming towards me!
"CLASH!"
"Vroom~"
The clash of our blades created sparks as our wills clashed with our blades both coated with [Armament Haki] for me the max but to him not even trying.
And I can tell as I can read his thoughts.
Damn it…
I guess this is really how weak I am to people like Mihawk and monsters his level are at but…
Smiling towards Mihawk as I thought to myself in excitement, 'This level… I will reach it there myself. To be in an adventure across the whole multiverse and everything else to learn as I go along now, I can say I didn't regret joining up with the system.'
However, I have soon expressed a shocked expression as I read over his thoughts that left me scared, 'This young man certainly is gifted to learn Haki at this age although average he seems competent too, let's see if he can handle 2% of my real power.'
Only 2% of his real power?
"Slash!"
"Spurgh!"
Argh!
Ha ha ha ha!
I guess even blocking with one of 21 Grade Swords like Shusui using all I had in my [Armament Haki] to coat it I was still unable to block his attack at all.
Slamming down on the ground with a large and noticeable scar across my chest as Mihawk cleans off his dagger as he says to me, "I'm somewhat impressed young man you managed to almost block off one of my attacks and be able to breathe. You have my permission to stay on this island but don't bother me got it."
Nodding my head to the number one swordsman in the world I saw him left the area going to the abandoned castle of this kingdom…
Even though I have Haki I'm still this weak to the likes of Mihawk on his level.
I couldn't even successfully block his dagger with his Haki of [Armament Haki] as I read his thoughts it terrified me of how weak I truly am.
Only 2% of his real strength left me like this bleeding out from my chest…
This is unreal about how strong people of the One-Piece world like him are.
Placing my hand over my head I literally sweat up a storm as I got a handful of sweat from my face.
I was honestly scared to face Mihawk again soon.
It looks like I have a long way to go to truly be strong.
Getting myself back up again there is no point in laying down on the ground defeated as I bring out my medical supplies, I got from Water 7 as I began treatment on myself.
Bandaging myself together I see that the humandrills are beginning to come around as I smirk at this happening to me.
No way I'm going to let a bunch of beasts with armor and weapons takes me down this easily without a fight.
Grabbing my Shusui I got into my sword fighting stance again as I smirk towards the humandrills with a confident smile, "Alright then you bunch of humandrills let's see what your made of! [Third Form: Thunder Swarm]!!"
With that my attacks surround the humandrills with powerful waves of electricity and sword slashes that slice up the enemy in all directions!
"Bzzt!"
"Slice!"
No way I'm going to fail unless I give my all to my work!
After I finish up my own swordsmanship the next step is the Hasshoken or known as the [Eight-Impact Fist].
But the most important thing to do is not piss off a sword wielding destroying ship man called Mihawk on this island.
The last thing I need is to be cut apart here before I could travel to a different world.
Best to grind as much as I can before going to the next destination.
