Undying Will 69 Dress

As the sun rose into the sky the s.h.i.+p could be seen coasting on the periphery of the horizon, only now going full mast gathering all the speed that the wind could give them.

With a deep breath I walked down from the top deck, looking annoyed at the cabin boy that now hunched at the side of the s.h.i.+p puking his guts out for the world to see. With a shake of my head I decided to ignore him, it was his first time at sea he would get over it fairly quickly.

"Oi brat, if you're going to be like that for the entire trip carry a bag with you so you don't dirty the deck. More work for you after getting week knees is hardly a good idea. If the whole problem persists however, I suggest looking for Sorren.

He's setting up office in the small room between the barracks and the dining hall!" and with that I walked over to a set of barrels that held clean drinking water in the corner of the s.h.i.+p's deck. With a deep swig from the barrel and a satisfied sigh I patted my belly as I made my way to the mid part of the deck to sun bathe.

With a sigh of contentment and a purr I stretched on the deck my back arcing in glee.

With a dull warble the pathetic cabin boy slowly straightened up as he grimaced in my direction. "Can't you cut me some slack captain?" he whined. His face an awful shade of green and red.

"No can do, this is a pirate s.h.i.+p, when you decided the life of a pirate, you were warned about how much work would be expected out of you. So stop dawdling and get to work or ill pick up your training and I can a.s.sure you, you're not gonna like it!" I threatened with my eyes closed as he scowled in response.

With a dull thud, he crunched back down to puke his guts out once again, a choked host of profanities ringing from his mouth as he hunched over.

A dull clacking began at the foot of the stairs leading to the base of the s.h.i.+p as the s.h.i.+ny head of the previously mentioned boy gleamed out in the dull monotonous brown of the deck.

"Captain!" he cheerfully called out, a swagger in the way he moved.

"I just realized that I haven't actually been able to stretch much since the whole Onigumo incident, so can we spar? I would have asked you earlier, but through the entirety of the sh.o.r.e leave you've remained cooped up in your captain's quarters.." he said sauntering over to where I lay and covering my p.r.o.ne sunbathing form in a wide black shadow.

"Ugh, G.o.d d.a.m.nit brat, go soak in sun elsewhere!" I snarled shooing him away with lazy gestures of my hands.

"Captain, why don't you? I haven't seen you in action even once after I joined the crew.." the airy chastis.e.m.e.nt made its way from the stairs as a dull white hat broached the wood line.

"…Fine. You asked for it brat! So don't come crying to me later when I black your eye!" I snarled out as I slowly got up. My silvery new s.h.i.+rt glistening in the pleasant sun light.

"No daggers though!" he called out, a strain of sweat coming from his left temple as he took an attack position.

"Ugh, fine.." I said as I made my way to the centre of the makes.h.i.+ft ring that had been made. The sick cabin boy had by that time finally decided to sit up, a tub at his feet that he got from G.o.d knows where. To the side sat a curious Angella and another newly appeared Terrick with Fawkes taking up the rear of the entire group.

With a deep breath Sorren slowly pulled off his s.h.i.+rt, throwing it to the ground behind him before settling down in a fighting stance.

I on the other hand merely unb.u.t.toned the top two buckles on the crest of my s.h.i.+rt making it distinctly V around my shoulders.

With a deep calming breath I brought both hands to a level just below my chin before stretching my leg slightly forward.

As if the both of us had been signaled by an external force we leapt at each other at the same time. Since this was merely a spar between the both of us, I opted this time not to use my signature flash step to close the distance in between the both of us. Instead going for an experiment I had in mind.

With a dull thud that echoed from the bottom of my heal I reached towards him ducking beneath his guard as I did so. My momentum carrying me into his chest where I rammed my shoulder to stop his advance.

With a swift swing of his right arm, elbow rus.h.i.+ng towards my exposed neck, Sorren welcomed my presence in his guard.

With a weave away from him I retreated marginally right into his reach. As I did, his left arm jabbed towards me, aiming for my right temple that I had inadvertently opened up when I retreated.

With a sliver of observation Haki I observed as his hands neared my face, twisting my neck at the last minute neutralizing most of the damage as I did.

With a step forward Sorren used the initiative that he had gotten during the short milliseconds that I had turned my head for, bringing his right elbow rocketing towards my exposed neck.

A dull thud saw me taking a step forward, pus.h.i.+ng with my toes into the ground and using the momentum that it generated to twist my body around the punch that came hurtling toward me.

A swing of my hand followed my brisk maneuver, bringing my closed fist to meet the open head of my compet.i.tor.

With what I perceived to be observation Haki as well, Sorren managed to swiftly neutralize the strike to hit temple by stepping back calmly and shoving his feet heavily into my exposed back, pus.h.i.+ng me a tad to the side before he deftly bought his other leg up to meet my face in a clever maneuver that saw him leap from the ground and land with his other feat.

This was exactly the opportunity that I had waited for, I swiftly brought my left hand up to grab a hold of his ankle while I precariously leaned back.

Within the second it took for me to gain a stable hold on his leg I had already placed my leg properly onto the floor bracing myself for the move I was about to try out.

With a quick pull and a strengthened hold I brought the rigid form of the now surprised Sorren to my torso:

"Yoso!"
