Jack swung his blade in a upward direction, Alesul then quickly stepped to the side evading the blade. However Jack followed through with the other dagger on his left aiming towards Alesul's neck. Though Alesul instinctively followed up by going lower to the ground and using his leg to sweep jack off balance. Seizing this advantageous opportunity, Alesul then used his hands springing himself upward. As he landed a devastating kick towards Jack's chest sending him back several feet.
Jack internally : " so this is what he's like when he's serious… gotta say, I gave him less credit than he deserved "
Jack then rushed towards Alesul, as he did Jack threw one of his daggers towards him. As if that wasn't enough, Jack then threw his second dagger towards the first, making the second dagger ricochet towards Alesul.
Alesul internally : " That was close… if I was a second late it would've been the end for me, I guess that means he's also getting serious "
Luckily enough Alesul managed to dodge the attack within a hair's breadth, Jack on the other hand wasn't done, as he was able to close the distance between the two. Jack then followed his frontal assault with a small flurry of punches. Caught off guard by the speed of Jack's movements; Alesul had no choice but to block as best as he could, As he withstood the full onslaught of Jack's blows.
Jack : " I'LL ADMIT YOU'RE PRETTY GOOD FOR A RUNT, BUT DON'T GO GETTING YOUR HOPES UP JUST BECAUSE YOU GOT A FEW GOOD HITS IN ! "
Alesul : " YOU'RE THE ONE WHO SHOULD KEEP THAT IN MIND, YOU OVER GROWN BABOON "
Alesul internally : " Who the hell am I kidding his punches feel heavier than boulders. I don't know how much more of this I can handle "
Jack's punches kept coming one after the other with no signs of slowing down. As he kept punching away, Alesul's defenses slowly began to crumble; Until eventually he was left unable to do anything to stop Jack. Alesul's situation was a dire one as he would inevitably take the full brunt of Jack's powerful punches. The force of such powerful blows were enough to break through the concrete floor below Alesul.
Jack : " LIKE I TOLD YOU KID DON'T GO GETTING YOUR HOPES UP, IN THIS WORLD ONLY THE STORNG SURVIVE !!! "
As Jack began to slow down his movements he noticed that Alesul could no longer hear him, as Alesul had already lost consciousness. Jack then stopped his attacks as he stood there staring at Alesul's defeated body. From the looks of it, it seemed as though he pitted him for even trying.
Jack : " You should've just stayed out of this, could've saved you the trouble… fucking dumb ass "
Jack then began to pick up his daggers and as he did, many of the Outlaws as well as the other men who worked under Tezca began to take notice some even cheering boosting their morale.
Random Outlaws : " SEE THAT YOU FUCKS JACK DID IT !, YOU CAN SAY THAT AGAIN HE BEAT THE LIFE OUT THAT KID, WOULDN'T BE SURPRISED IF HE KILLED HIM "
Though on the other hand things weren't exactly as they seemed, as that small boost of momentum was shortly lived. The reason being Scotch was still around and kicking, But that wasn't all, as Scotch was taking a short break a top of the small mountain of corpses, that were the outlaws and various goons that had piled up while facing him. Scotch then spoke to Jack and said the following.
Scotch : " Don't walk away as if you've already won "
Jack : " What the hell are you talking about, you retarded or something , he's not getting back up "
Scotch : " (smirks) the real fight is just getting started "
Although the fight seemed to be concluded as Alesul had been knocked unconscious, his will to fight still remained intact. As somewhere within his mind Alesul began to remember the things his grandfather had instilled on to him during their time spent in training.
SIX YEARS PRIOR
Somewhere within the Zou forest.
Alesul : " I give up, your too strong gramps I can't win against you. This sucks "
Mugen : " hoho, what's that I hear I'm too strong, can you repeat that again ( grin ) "
Alesul : " Don't get too full of yourself old man I'll surpass you soon enough, just you wait "
Mugen : " Well, if you feel so strongly about it how about I teach you a new technique, how does that sound ? "
Alesul : " A new technique ? , it's about time you stingy old coot "
Mugen : " I'm being serious here Alesul, the technique I'm about to teach you is a dangerous one since it can be used to kill somebody if not done properly. "
Alesul : " then why are you teaching me if it's so dangerous "
Mugen : " Because, if taught properly it'll allow you to close the gap between you and your opponent. Especially if that opponent happens to be much more physically capable than you are, using this will tip the scales in your favor. "
Mugen : " This technique is called …. "
As Jack continued to slowly walk away, he stopped in his tracks as he heard Alesul slowly get back up on his feet. Jack then turned around with an annoyed expression on his face.
Jack : " H-how in the hell is he back up, resilient little fucker aren't you "
Scotch internally : " Show us how far you're willing to climb kid (grin ) "
Alesul : " I'm winning this time around Jack ( smirk ) "
