Chapter 7 - Training and Determination

As the day of the fight approached, the villagers of the small town were abuzz with excitement. They had heard about Noah's encounter with the two gangsters and were curious to see what he was capable of.

Noah had been training hard for the past few days, and he was determined to prove himself to his uncle and the rest of the villagers. Every day, he woke up before dawn and ran several miles through the countryside. Then he would return to Greg's house, where he would spend hours practicing some basic fighting style.

One morning, Greg decided to teach Noah a new punch move with the correct posture. He demonstrated the move, showing Noah how to position his feet and how to execute the technique. Noah watched intently, but when he tried to execute the move himself, he stumbled and fell to the ground.

Greg chuckled. "You're not going to get it on the first try, Noah. Keep practicing."

Noah got up and tried the move again. This time, he was able to execute it, albeit clumsily. He tried it again and again until he was able to execute the move flawlessly.

After three days of intense training, Noah approached his uncle and asked to fight him. So that Noah can have a basic understanding of his current. While knowing himself he can better act at night against gangsters.

Greg was surprised by Noah's request, but also intrigued. "You want to fight me, Noah? Why not challenge someone else? Don't think that after training for 3 days you are capable enough to fight me. You don't want people to think I'm bullying you."

"No, Uncle Greg. I want to fight you. I think you'll be a real challenge," Noah replied with confidence, ignoring the whispers of the other villagers who were angry at being dismissed as weak.

Greg sighed. "All right, let's do it. But after I win, don't say I bullied you."

"I won't, Uncle Greg. I'm confident I will not lose," Noah said.

The two fighters faced each other in an open position, and the tension was palpable. Greg, with his imposing stature and chiseled muscles, seemed almost invincible. Noah, on the other hand, was lean and agile, exuding confidence and determination.

At first, Greg seemed to have the upper hand. He was able to anticipate Noah's moves and counter them with ease. Noah, however, was determined to win. He began to pick up on Greg's fighting style and tactics, adapting and learning on the spot.

The fight continued, and the two fighters exchanged blows, each trying to gain the upper hand. Noah's speed and agility made it difficult for Greg to land a hit, and he found himself struggling to keep up with his nephew's moves.

As the fight progressed, Noah began to use some of the tactics he had picked up from Greg, incorporating them into his own fighting style. The two fighters exchanged blows, each trying to gain the upper hand.

Despite Greg's experience, he found himself on the defensive, unable to anticipate Noah's moves. Noah's agility and quick thinking gave him the advantage, and he began to land several blows on his uncle.

Finally, after exchanging multiple moves, Noah stopped fighting and acknowledged that his uncle was strong and that he was still weak. Greg was taken aback by Noah's humility and couldn't understand why he was still calling himself weak when he had just proven himself to be so strong.

As they left the fighting ground, Greg couldn't help but feel impressed by his nephew's innate fighting abilities. He had never seen anyone learn and adapt so quickly to his fighting style.

Noah was proud of himself for holding his own against his uncle, a skilled fighter with years of experience. He couldn't believe that he had learned so much in such a short amount of time and felt grateful to his uncle for teaching him so much.

The other villagers were still buzzing about the fight. Some couldn't believe that Noah had been able to stand up to Greg, while others were impressed but still thought that Greg had gone easy on him.

As Greg and Noah walked back to the house, Greg couldn't help but express his admiration for Noah. "I didn't think you had it in you, Noah. You're a natural fighter, just like me." Be sure to take some rest now so that you will be in full energy for today's operation against the gangster's camp.

Noah smiled, feeling a sense of pride and accomplishment. He had proven himself to his uncle and to the rest of the village, and he had done it all on his own terms.

Noah also felt conflicted as he couldn't shake the feeling that he had disappointed his aunt by engaging in violent behavior.

The other villagers were still buzzing about the fight. Some couldn't believe that Noah had been able to stand up to Greg, while others were impressed but still thought that Greg had gone easy on him. A few of the more skeptical villagers even suggested that the whole thing had been staged.

As night fell, a group of trusted villagers set out to infiltrate the gangsters' camp. They moved quickly and quietly, taking care not to attract any attention. They knew that the gangsters would not hesitate to use force if they discovered their presence.

As they approached the gangster's camp, they could hear the gangsters' raucous laughter and shout. They knew that they were in for a tough fight, but they were determined to see it through. They took a deep breath and readied themselves for the battle ahead.
