Chapter 71 - Chapter 71: The Strongest of GODS

*Yohei is shown in front of Atlas*

Yohei: I'm glad to hear that you're one of the strongest

Atlas: Knowing your history, you don't look weak

Yohei: *Smiling* Thanks for the praise

Atlas: Being in the top 10 is not a very common thing, so I hope you don't disappoint me

Yohei: I'm not going to disappoint you, I'm going to tear you apart

Atlas: *Smile* Come

*Both throw themselves against each other and bump fists generating a great shock wave*

*The ground of the island cracks and begins to detach*

Atlas: It looks like I got it right to get out of town

*Thunder begins to be heard in the sky*

Atlas: Hey, hey, are you serious?

*A gigantic cloud full of thunder is seen*

Yohei: Die

*Lightning strikes at high speed and hits the city fully generating a large explosion*

*The island begins to detach completely, sinking into the sea*

*Atlas' clothes shown largely destroyed*

Atlas: *Think* It's a monster, I can't contain myself a little bit

*Atlas lunges for Yohei and the two begin to exchange blows

*The battle generates great energy shocks that are felt all the way to the city*

Zef: He's a monster

Yuki: *Thinks* I've never seen this before, there's no one near him, not even Eden

*It is one of the exchanges of blows, Yohei hits Atlas squarely in the abdomen leaving him very weakened*

*Yohei hits Atlas' back and sends him into the water, causing him to sink*

*Yohei is shown very exhausted and agitated*

*Atlas comes out of the water and stares at Yohei*

Atlas: I give up

Yohei: *Surprised* Why?

Atlas: It's clear that I won't be able to beat you, it's something I don't like to admit, but you're much stronger than me

Yohei: But I still sense that you have a lot of strength, why don't you keep trying?

Atlas: My duty is to be your teacher, not to beat you to exhaustion, besides, you are almost out of energy, so that will be your first training

Yohei: What?

Atlas: You lack a lot of experience to manage your energies, every attack you made was done with all your strength, so you exhausted your strength before your time. If this wasn't training, right now your opponent would have killed you without hesitation

*Yohei is surprised by Atlas' words*

Yohei: I see... So, let me, be your apprentice

*Yohei bows to Atlas*

Atlas: It'll be a pleasure to turn you into a monster

Yohei: Thank you, Mr. Atlas

Atlas: For today this is all, go rest, from tomorrow I don't plan to stop

Yohei: Yes

*Jason, Yohei and Zef are shown at a spa*

Jason: How was your first day of training?

Yohei: Nothing out of the ordinary, Mr. Atlas only tested me, starting tomorrow I will start training

Zef: At least you've done something, I've been forced to sit on the beach and nothing else, I was like this all day

Jason: Well, then it wasn't bad at all

Yohei: Maybe...

Jason: Have you taken care of the other?

*The face of both changes to a serious face*

Yohei: Impossible

Zef: nothing at all

*Jason is surprised and disappointed at the same time*

Jason: Have they forgotten why they came?

Zef: I promise to investigate more tomorrow

Yohei: I say the same thing

Jason: *As he sinks into the water* What long days await me...

*Yohei is shown concentrating as Atlas watches him*

Atlas: Don't try to do the usual thing, don't send all your energy to a specific point. The time that this take will only make your opponent think about how to finish you off. Flow the amount needed to do what you want to do to an exact point

*Yohei's entire environment begins to release sparks*

Atlas: Come on, try to get your attack to my high speed. Don't think about it, just attack

*A bolt of lightning comes out of Yohei's finger at high speed, but it loses all its power during the journey*

Atlas: That attack, it didn't even tickle me. Come on, do it again

*Yohei begins to launch fast but unsuccessful attacks*

*Yohei is very tired*

Atlas: If you don't learn to control your powers in this way, you'll lose a lot of advantage. Both your energy and light need swift attacks, but they must be effective. If you don't get that weapon, you won't be able to beat opponents much stronger than you

Yohei: yes...

Atlas: Come on, try again

*Yohei sighs and closes his eyes*

*Electricity energy is shown running through Yohei's body at high speed*

Yohei: *Think* This has to change. That old man will have to pay for everything, so I have to be stronger than him. No matter what

*All the energy in Yohei's body disappears*

Atlas: *Think* Really?

*Atlas blinks and sees a bolt of lightning from Yohei, right in front of his chest*

*The lightning strikes Atlas leaving him injured*

Yohei: I'm sorry master, I

*Atlas is very surprised and smiling*

Atlas: You really are a monster

Atlas: *Think* He managed to hide his energy, and not only that, he was also able to use his energy with a lot of strength and speed. He's a genius

Atlas: Come on, I want a fight. Don't hold back

Yohei: Yes!

*Yohei and Atlas begin a very intense fight, which generates tremors and makes the heavens tremble*

*The excited faces of both of them are shown as they fight*
