"So what are we gonna do?"
Was all Shu could ask as he walked behind Ezra, staring at his back with a small smile
"You'll know when we get there"
Ezra replied as Shu sighed proceeding to look around, although he's been in this room for a few minutes, he didn't realize how big it was, or how great it looked. The room was filled with gigantic bookshelves that covered even the ceiling, some of the books were even floating around the place. He was amazed, he wanted to explore the room, so, he decided that was what he wanted to do, but right before he could even take a step Ezra held onto his head
"We're here"
said Ezra with simplicity, stopping in front of a wooden door, the same size as him
"What are you waiting for, come on"
Ezra demanded before opening the door, walking in, being followed by the curious looking Shu
"Ooh, this place is perfect for Martial Arts!"
Shu yelled as he ran past the tired-looking Ezra, who simply stared at him.
"I mean just look at this place!"
He yelled once more while stretching his arms out, standing in the middle of an empty room, wide but empty
"I suppose it is"
Ezra replied with a small sigh, proceeding to stretch his body
"So what are we doing here?"
Shu questioned as he looked and walked around the room, stretching his arms out while taking larger steps, chuckling in the process
"Nothing much, just.."
Was all Shu heard for a reply before, instinctively arching his back, he was feeling fear again, sweat began to drip from his head but before he could even think, he simply smirked to then turn around with swiftness and proceed to block a massive fist with both of his arms.
The attack was so strong that it made his feet sink in the ground, as he struggled to push the fist away, using all the strength in his arms
"Ho? You have quick reflexes, how old were you again?"
Ezra questioned while looking down at Shu with a calm expression, as Shu's smirk would turn into a grin while the veins in his arms became noticeable
"I'm 15.."
Shu replied with difficulty, as he continued to struggle against the calm looking man
"Really? I forgot how it was but, in terms of teachings, master would teach Taekwondo for 5 years, and right afterward he would teach 5 years worth of boxing, and considering he's dead now, you probably only know those two styles right?"
Said the man, an in attempt to deduce what sort of training Shu received
"You're mostly correct..."
Said Shu as he would then, slip out of the clash, docking down before dashing to the side, disappearing in a blur and reappearing above Ezra's shoulders, preparing a full-body kick
"But he only taught me 3 years' worth of boxing, since..."
Shu added to his previous statement, as he would then swing his leg at Ezra's head
"Well, he wanted me to awaken an ability"
He finished, smirking as he expected his kick to land. It was inches away from Ezra's head, so it was safe to assume it would land, but Ezra would simply catch Shu's leg, pulling his body forward, before slamming him against the ground, creating a small crater with Shu's body, before throwing him in the air, to later appear above him, using his weight to bring Shu down to the ground, depleting all the air from his lungs
"That's weird, master was always obsessed with Martial Arts. Imagining him teaching someone else besides himself how to awaken is kind of funny"
Said Ezra with a straight face, as Shu tried to remove Ezra's leg from his chest
"It doesn't look like your laughing...huff huff"
Shu replied with difficulty, trying to gather air as Ezra stared at him with the same expression as before removing his leg away from Shu's chest
"Do I have to laugh to make say something funny?"
He questioned before grabbing Shu by his head, slamming him against the ground one more time, proceeding to kick him away seconds later
"I suppose you do!"
Shu yelled as he stopped his almost flying body from creasing against the wall by sinking his hands inside of the ground, dashing forward, disappearing in a blur of speed, appearing in front of Ezra, taking a deep breath as he would then take a fighting stance
"Karate Style, Himura Palm: High Five!"
Shu yelled, proceeding to surround his hand with a great amount of Sanctuary Energy before slamming his palm against Ezra's stomach, creating a gigantic gust of wind
"You see, normally, this would knock a person out, but, you're fighting one of Yorujo's disciples right now..."
Said Ezra, with a deep and slow tone as he would then hold Shu's wrist, tightening his grip as the wind slowly dispersed, revealing the two of them, standing on what seemed to be a crater wider than Ezra's entire body
"So the level of Strength you should be using would have to be about this much"
Ezra whispered, before copying Shu's stance, moving his arm backward to then, slam it against Shu's chest, causing a burst of wind that sent Shu flying and crashing against the wall
"You know, I've been curious as to why you're in your Spiritual Awakening state, last I remembered, one of master's teachings clearly stated that, unless you are prepared to kill someone, you shouldn't use your Spiritual Awakening"
Said Ezra, as his voice echoed throughout the room, while he slowly walked out of the crater
"So who in the world made you desperate enough to transform?"
Ezra questioned while a blue smoke began to spew from his body, resembling that of heated steam as his muscles twitched, the smoke then began to spew from his head, eyes, and ears
"Well, It doesn't matter, it's good you're in that state because right now, I'm about to teach a lesson. You know I was once called The Blue King Of Death, no one calls me that anymore but, you will in a bit"
Ezra whispered as he took a loud and strong step forward, standing in front of the tired-looking Shu as he cracked his knuckles, looking down at Shu as more of that blue smoke came out of his mouth.
