Great Age of Pirates

13 Second Gate!

Only at this moment, Rey realized the importance of wielding a weapon. The snake agilely moved his body and evaded Rey's attack, but Rey flipped in the mid-air and shoved the horn once again at the snake's stomach.

'Hiss'

The snake screamed in pain, while the horn pierced its body. Even so, it didn't affect the snake's might as it was able to easily shook Rey off its body.

This time, Rey and the snake looked at each other. The atmosphere is noiseless, Rey's eyes are calm and collected.

Swish!

The python snake suddenly burst into action, moving from one to side to other before charging at Rey and pounced at him with its mouth open trying to bite him using its venomous fang.

Rey dodged its attack with a hair length, 'It's too fast!'

It rushed forth again, It was so fast as it looked like practically hovering above the ground with lightning speed. It kept changing its directions, wiggling and tried to attack Rey with its unpredictable moves.

Rey focused his entire strength on dodging while trying to improve his 'Soru' to another level.

"Not enough, my speed is slow!" Rey continued to dodge using a high-speed movement.

He could tell the skin of the snake is tough so his normal attacks won't work and so, the gap between them was abundantly clear! He could perceive the python is not at all nervous as if everything is in its control.

Rey had a dangerous feeling witnessing its eyes. As he imagined, the speed of the snake accelerated to another level and it abruptly lunged at Rey.

'This is the moment!' Rey thought and a white aura began to emit from his body. It was his trump card, releasing all the pure energy inside his body to boost his physical strength.

Energy burst!

Using his fastest speed, he ducked and drove the horn straight at the snake's head. The sharp point of the horn ripped the air and penetrated the snake's head and came out of the other side.

The sudden attack and increase in Rey's strength completely surpassed its expectations. If it had been prepared for the move beforehand, it would have been able to effortlessly dodge it, but there's no if's in the fight.

The distance was too close and the speed of attack was fast. It was impossible for the snake to dodge, so it lost its life in the process.

The battle may look like it ended in three to four moves but it was the intense fight that Rey has ever fought in his life. If there's any slightest miscalculation on his part, then he would have been the one who lost his life today.

Both the Snake and Rey collapsed on the ground but the snake is dead while he was completely exhausted as releasing the pure energy inside his body will weaken him for a period of time.

After a few minutes, Rey picked the horn which helped him in the fight and quickly left the place. He sprinted to his own hideout near the seashore, where it's completely safe from other creatures.

He only took rest after reaching the shelter and slept for one whole day. When he woke up at next day, Rey was startled and surprised by the fact that his second gate has been miraculously opened.

He could feel his whole body is packed with power and strength. Rey clenched his fist and punched the nearby rock which shattered into little fragments.

His physical ability enhanced to the next level while the pure energy inside his body increased to another margin.

'My strength improved yet again! Now, I will be able to face pirates below a bounty of 50 Million berries with ease.' Rey mused.

He now has the strength to at least survive in this cruel world.

Four months passed by again, its been ten months since Rey came to this Island.

Boom!

A figure flung high in the air and crash-landed on the ground with 'thud' sound, lifeless. It was a large reptile-like creature with a dinosaur head and lizard body.

It was the strongest Type D creature on this Island, but it was easily beaten by Rey and pummeled to the ground.

Apart from Type D and Type E creatures, there are four type Type C creatures on this Island with monstrous strength. Rey has encountered one such creature, but he wasn't able to defeat it and same could be said for the creature as it was also not able to do anything to Rey.

In these four months, Rey considered every type D creatures as sparring partners and some as delicious foods. After four months of long training, he finally developed two techniques suited to him in combats.

The first is fist attacks called Heavy punch and Rapid Punch. The second is the staff technique, which to deal with people who fought with weapons.

Heavy Punch is a pure fist attack utilizing his full physical strength to create an airwave attack; Even though, his strength is not at a level it can compress the air, in future it's possible.

Rapid punch is also a fist attack but it focuses mainly on speed; Like, in a second how many punches he can perform. This technique was created by Rey in reference to Might Guy's Morning Peacock. In Naruto, Guy's punches are so fast that friction with the air produces flames and Rey also wanted to reach this stage.

Rey created a staff from one of the Type D creature's bone which is hard as steel and smeared it by melting the horns he obtained from various creatures.

The staff looked simple and yet natural with black and white luster as it was created by the mother nature itself. It was around 5 meters in length and seemed perfect for Rey.

Rey's next target is a Type C creature. Even though his strength increased rapidly in this last four months, his strength is nowhere enough to defeat a Type C creature.
