章節 6: Chapter 6: Duel against the FireLord
'This is not what I wanted.'
"GUH!" I landed a few feet away from Azulan. The f***ing old man punched me! Quickly standing up, I stare hard at this old man that actually sucker-punched me. He didn't say begin or anything and this is supposed to be an official duel!
"Hmm, you look confused Sasuke. You need to prove your strength to everyone and that means even when you're not expecting it," spoke Azulan.
"You can cover it up however you want, but you still sucker-punched me, you cheap old man."
"HM, OLD MAN!? This unfilial grandson! Guess some discipline is in order." He launches towards me with inconceivable speed! I only find enough time to go into a cross-block before I find myself sent flying again. What is with this old man's strength and speed? It's insane!
"WHOOOAAAh"
"The Firelord is so fast!"
'Shut up stupid flies! Ugh, now what? How can I defeat someone who is faster, stronger, and more skilled than me?'
Azulan spoke, breaking my thoughts "Though I can beat you till bedtime, and sleep like an angel due to the good workout; you're forgetting the point of this duel Sasuke. It's to show your strength, not defeat me."
"!!"
'This old man is so annoying!'
I quickly focus my vision and lock on to my opponent, building power into my legs, I burst into motion. The pain in my arms soon subsides as I'm no longer focused on that anymore. He was a little shocked at my sudden acceleration and using it I jumped and sent a strong left roundhouse back kick in mid-air. He catches it but I continue with an overhand right punch. He somehow can get a hand on it to block but I'm not done! I twist my hips to bring my right leg over and make another attack with a dropkick! I finally connected, hitting his shoulder and making him let go of my leg.
On landing, I drop down for a leg sweep. He manages to lift his leg before I make contact, and sends a front kick at my head! This old man isn't going easy on me either huh. You asked for it, old man! I manage to weave sideways and dodge the front kick, taking a deep to inhale, I open my mouth and unleash a large breath of red hot fire!
"!!" Azulan was shocked.
"WOAHH!"
"There it is!"
"That's my big brother"
"He really can breathe fire!"
Azulan gets his sleeves in front of my fire and backpedals quickly in an attempt to avoid it. However, we were too close and the fire managed to singe his clothes a little before he put the fire out.
"Looks like my grandson is skilled indeed. Your level in close combat is already at what seems to be a Captain. I've just seen your infamous dragon breath, but I'll hold onto my comments for now. Hmm, let's test your regular fire bending now." Azulan says. He grabs his nicely woven red and gold robes and takes off his top. What's revealed is a well-toned aged body with lingering youth, and at this moment it feels like Azulan's frame got bigger, his back straighter.
Azulan takes a deep breath and exhales as he takes one step forward and settles down into a basic fire form stance.
'So that's what you want to do now'
I mimic the old man and take off my shirt. What's revealed is a chiseled six-pack with defined muscles unbelievably placed onto a 5-year-olds body.
(A/n: Just look up 'strong kid' or anything synonymous to found what it would look like)
"KYAAA"
"Prince SASUKE!"
Ignoring the nuisances, I take a deep breath and exhale while taking one step forward into my basic fire form stance. Left leg leads with a widened base, my left hand in a chop form in front of me, and right hand next to my hips in a fist.
"!!" We attack at the same time by punching forward with our right hands, propelling a strong fire through our fists, creating a huge tornado of flames. The flame soon dissipates and I deliver more blasts while circling him. He elegantly avoids my fires by a small margin, seeing this I take a deep breath.
'Firebending is all in the breath'
Bringing my hands, I make a long semicircle clockwise with my right hand going from my left shoulder to my right hip and channel a lot of my chi into delivering a huge blast of fire. Azulan stood in place with a block form, and when the fire reached him, he opened his arms and dispelled my flames!
'Tsk doesn't even faze him'
I twirl and bring my foot high above my head, showing great flexibility. A dropkick pursues it while my foot drags a long stream of fire down and I continue to twist while flaring my feet at him from a distance. He easily steps into my flurry of attacks with a hand gently weaving through. My flames never touch his person. His steps are steady and his breath is firm.
"Truly a good display of light as a leaf, heavy as iron. You have completely mastered the basics and have developed a good foundation. Ahh, how great it is to be young…"
Azulan suddenly stands up straight and I'm left dumbfounded. I go back to my stance in wait.
"Time now ebbs and flows,
as for our family ties,
Worrisome future"
'What is he doing now?'
"My days in the sun
I shall not ever forget
Sun, shine bright on them"
'Is...is he reciting poetry?'
Even more suddenly, Azulan sends a powerful punch that barrels out flames twice the size of my own! Still, in my stance I delve my hands into the flames and force the flames, spearheading straight through them. Immediately looking for my opponent, Azulan appeared directly in front of me! He sent a devastating left body blow into my gut, knocking the air out of my lungs. I land harshly on the floor.
'F***ing SNEAK ATTACK, Damn it! I've been so diligently working out my abdominals after how it went with Itachi, JUST FOR IT TO STILL HAPPEN!'
"RwaHHH!" I kick upwards and spin in a circular motion, catching Azulan off guard. Before he can get his balance, I take heavy steps and continuously blast his feet to keep him off balance. Finding such a rare opportunity, I jumped forward for close combat, delivering a sharp low kick onto his already disrupted balance and brought the old man down. Finally, his face was eye level with mine, I took a deep breath and didn't hesitate to punch his face! You DESERVE IT YOU ANNOYING OLD MAN!
(A/N: Yo fighting scenes are hard. I didn't give people enough credit when I read fight scenes until I actually had to write a full chapter on one. I don't know if it's good so please leave a comment and let me know.)
