Chapter 8 - CH-7 : Mark the first crew member

Sea Calender Year-1504

It has been one year since I have started training new skills and I already mastered those three skills.

One month ago I turned five years old.Right now I was doing push up while carrying a rock weighting 100kg but because of using Γ—6 time heavy gravity the rock's weight increased to 600kg.

I muttered while doing push up, "1497, 1498, 1499 & 1500~"

After finishing doing push up I threw the rock on the ground and said in my mind, "Status"

[Note for the Reader's : (M) means Max or Full mastery~]

Looking at the at progress I made in one years I became satisfied and nodded while smiling.Then suddenly a shadow jumped from behind of tree and attacked me with it's claw.

As for me, I was still standing there while smiling with both hand inside my pants pocket, I didn't even look toward the shadow.Just when the shadow's claw were about to hit me, I disappeared from my place and the claws landed on the place were I stood before.

*BANGG!!*

After the claw landed it caused smoke to flew all over the places.

After the smoke was cleared we can now clearly see the shadow which turned out to be a 2.5meter tall bear like beast.Right now the bear was standing shocked as it clearly saw a boy standing there a few second ago but just when it's claw was about hit the boy the boy disappeared.

The big bear turned around looking for the Pride but it didn't find anyone there.Suddenly a voice came from it's behind, "Looking for me~~"

Which was me~

The bear turned around and became shocked as it didn't know when I came behind him,Then it became angry seeing that I was leisurely standing behind it with a teasing smile on my face and hand inside his pants pocket.

It quickly attacked me again with it's claw but but I just moved to the side and the bear once again missed to land a hit on me.

After the bear missed I used soru and quickly appeared beside the bear and then kicked the bears belly from down toward up.

*BOOOM!!!*

After the my kick landed on the bears belly it flew 10 meter up in the air.I once again disappeared from his place and appeared beside the bear in the sky and was standing on the air using moon-walk.Then I slowly pulled out my right arm out of the pocket and extended it toward the bear while pointing two finger towards the bear's head.

I muttered : "Finger Pistol~~"

*SWISSHHHH!!!*

Two sharp light flashed from my finger at a high speed toward the bears head and then "Splash!!" blood came out of the bears head.Now there was two little hole on bear's head.

Then both me and the bear like beast landed on the ground the only differences was that I was standing there leisurely with blood dripping from his finger which is not mine while on the other hand the bear was laid dead on ground with blood splashing from it's head.

Unknown Persons Pov:

15 meters away from where Pride stood.A boy who looked seven years old was staring at Pride with a shocked face from behind of bushes.The boy has short brown hair and black eyes.

His name was Mark.He is the child of Pride's neighbours in the village.He heard from his parents that grandma Rebecca's grandchild who's name is Pride always keeps training in the forest.So,he became curious about what kind boy Pride was and so he decided to follow Pride to the forest and spy on him from behind the bushes.

He saw after Pride entered the forest Pride kept running in circle for one hour then Pride picked a big rock and started doing push up while carrying the rock on his back.Mark was really shocked by Pride's strength.

Then after Pride finished doing push up suddenly a 2.5meter Bear like beast came out of the bushes and attacked Pride.Mark got scared and shocked by the sudden appearance of the beast.

Mark didn't want to see Pride die but he couldn't do anything as he was not strong enough.So, he closed his eyes with sorrow.After he closed his eyes he heard few bang sounds.Then after a few minute the bang sound stoped.

Mark slowly open his eyes to see what happened and was shocked by what he saw.He saw that the bears was dead while Pride leisurely standing beside the bears dead body.He couldn't believe his eyes.

Then he saw Pride suddenly disappear from the side of bears dead body and then a hand tapped on his shoulder.Suddenly feeling someone's hand on his shoulder Mark got scared and jumped up which caused him to fall on the ground.Then he saw it was Pride who disappeared from the side of bear and reappeared behind him.

back to Pride~

I slowly walked toward the kid who fell on ground,then squatted down in front of him while asking with a teasing smile, "So,who are you?"

Mark replied honestly, "Hello! my name is Mark and i live in your neighbourhood.I heard that you always keep training.So,I wanted to know what kind of person you were and decided to spy on you"

Hearing what Mark said I became a little surprise but then asked with amused smile, "So,now that you spied on me for so long what kind of person do you think i am?"

Mark replied without any hesitation : "You are a strong person"

Pride, "ho~ thanks for the complement~"

I then saw Mark got up and bowed toward me while shouting, "Can you plz make me strong like you?"

I was surprised by his sudden request and asked, "Why do you suddenly want to become strong"

Mark replied while his eyes shone with bright light, "Well i think begin strong is cool"

heading his reason I looked toward him as if i was looking toward an idiot, "Only because of that?"

I saw him make a confused face while asking me, "Do i need any other reasons to become strong?"

I speechlessly looked at him and said with some seriousness, "Yes, you need a strong and good reason if you want to continue to become stronger in the future"

He thought for some time then looked at me and asked, "why do you want to become strong?"

I smiled at Mark's question and said, "Well, I want to become the king of sea"

Mark was surprised and asked, "You mean like pirates?"

"Hmmm yes, something like that." I replied the continued by asking, " Now answer me~what is the reason that you want to become strong?"

I saw Mark thinking for some time and then looked toward me with excitement while asking, "If you become pirate then you will need a crew right?"

I smiled after hearing what Mark question as I had a rough idea what his answer was going to be "Yes! I will need a crew.So what?"

Mark, "Then you will be the Captain right"

My smile kept getting wider as I continued to answer his question, "Yes! So what?!"

Mark, "Then you will also need a Vice-captain right?"

I asked again while shouting but there there was still an smile on my face as I knew what his answer would be, "YES!!! SO WHAT??"

I then saw Mark shouting in excitement, "Then my reason for becoming strong is that i want to be the vice-captain of your ship!!"

Hearing Mark, I started to laugh while saying, "Hahahaha~ well that's a good reason"

Then I looked at the exited Mark and said : "Then welcome to the team Mark.I hope that you wouldn't disappoint me.From tomorrow you will strat training with me."

After saying that I turned around and started walking toward the village.Mark also quickly followed behind me.
