บท 59: Training
The boat calmly rocks in the water as the island floats away. Yuma walks up to Boombox who leans on the railing, watching as the sun finalizes setting.
"Hey, Iteyi. You okay?" Boombox doesn't turn around, his gaze fixed on the horizon.
"I don't know, Yuma… I really don't know." Yuma also looks out at the horizon.
"I know it's a lot to take in… Moon joining us, I mean." Boombox's grip on the rail tightens.
"You've never been sympathetic like this, Yuma… How can we trust him? He killed Nyct… He tried to kill us." Yuma leans further on the rails. The moon begins to rise
"I know, Iteyi. But we have to consider the possibility that he's telling the truth. That he's genuinely sorry for what he did." Boombox turns to face Yuma, his eyes blazing with anger.
"Sorry? Sorry isn't enough, Yuma! Sorry won't bring Nyct back!!" Yuma's expression tightens.
"I know, Iteyi. But we have to think about the bigger picture. I need all the help I can get if we're going to take down the World Government and bring freedom to the world" Boombox's face twists in frustration.
"YOU AND YOUR SELFISH GOALS!! WHY CAN'T YOU READ THE ROOM!? I. CAN'T. TRUST. HIM!!" Yuma let's Boombox's shoulders go.
"We've all got our issues, Iteyi… that's what brought all of us to be where we are now… We'll figure it out together, Iteyi." The two stood there for a moment, the only sound was the waves crashing against the ship's hull.

The water calmly shifts as Yuma yawns, having been training with Cani for the last 3 hours. Cani rests her hands on her hips and smiles.
"We're finally getting somewhere, you're doing good… we're almost at the next island so this'll be our last sparring session, okay?" Yuma slowly nods.
"Okay… I'm ready" Cani steps back, lowering her shoulders and clenching her fists.
"Remember, feel reality around you, and shift it" Cani clenches her fist as the air heats up. Yuma furrows his brows and lifts his fist.
"Begin!" Cani appears in front of Yuma. 'She's faster than I remember!' Cani thrusts a fist as Yuma dodges barely. Yuma steps back to dodge another thrust. Quickly blocking a punch with his forearm. Sliding back across the deck.
"When did you get so fast!?" Cani smirks.
"I didn't actually hit you, you created a thin barrier over your arms as a precautionary barrier! Good job!" Yuma is shocked 'I did?' Suddenly, Cani thrusts a fist into Yuma's chest sending him sliding back, then getting hit by a left jab. Yuma stumbles and steps forward. His fist glows slightly as a haze wraps around his fist. Cani getting hit in the face before stumbling back.
"Ow!" Cani chuckles before suddenly getting slammed into the wall 'Delayed reaction-!?' Cani hits the deck and rushes to catch her breath. Yuma walked over and helped Cani stand.
"I have no idea how I did that" there was an awkward silence as Boombox walked over.
"Island inbound"
-----
Yuma looks up at the island on the horizon. Something like a thick tension hangs in the air. As if the island is covered in a looming sense of dread. Cani walking over. The air filled with a slight chill.
"Something feels off about this island," Boombox nods.
"It's like the entire island itself is sad… what's up?" The island was dull and had seemingly lost all its color. The trees were dark like a mangrove tree. They were dark, dull, and the leaves were large and hanging from the branch to the ground. Yuma squints.
"Prepare to make landfall on the harbor on the far side of the island" Cani nods.
"Okay, Yuma" Yuma leans back on the rail as Boombox steps forward.
"You have something on your mind, Yuma?" Yuma takes a deep breath and stares at the island, the closer they get, the foggier and thicker the sense of dread becomes.
"Something tells me what happens on this island will change where we're heading and how fast we get there…" Boombox looks at Yuma and then at the island.
"I feel the same"
