Chapter 25

*Splash*

The man that is swimming at the ship direction jump from the sea and land on the ship without making needless unnecessary noise

But as soon as he land on the ship, there's multiple sword covered in black colored aura of Haki encircling his neck in such a close distant that if the person even move a millimeter around his head will be send flying.

The people who holding the sword that surround him all stare at the man with intense gaze as they encircle the man. Not far from them a group of sniper and gunner holding their weapon and ready for any command.

As for the man himself?

He was speechless

His slanted eye is looking at the people around him in before sighing to him himself. He stand there, with relatively tall height with a very strong, defined build and tan skin around 1.88 meter height, wiping his round glass with a very slow movement and has his shirt hanging on his shoulder. His clean cut strawberry blond hair is still wet from the 'swim' he just take.

"Don't make any unnecessary fookin' move, 'Dark king' Silver Rayleigh" Tommy suddenly appear beside him and between the four people that is holding the sword. He has his trusty gun, A silver coat Desert Eagle with a sea stone bullet directly aim at Rayleigh temple and ready to shot at moment notice

He then turn even more speechless as he saw the glee and joy in Tommy eyes who suddenly appear beside him, as he didn't even bother to hide his expression, clearly enjoying the current moment

" Are you kidding with me now Tommy?" Rayleigh let out a frustrated sigh as he rub his head between his eyebrows. Not even bothering with the sword around his neck and that he is literally in gun point, showing his confident in his strength or maybe..... he just got used to it.

"We're just doing a normal procedure here, there's nothing personal in it….. I promise" getting a glare from Rayleigh before his body suddenly burst out a powerful force of Haki

*Zoooom*

[what do you think about the new sound effect? Comment to suggest more suitable sound effect]

The people on the surrounding that is aiming their weapon at him was directly hit by Rayleigh Haki immediately lose their conscious. As for the strong one and was able to somewhat hold their ground has cold sweat drench their back, but they didn't drop their weapon and keep aiming at him

As for the four people that has their sword on Rayleigh neck, even with their leg tremble a little they manage to maintain their position and keep waiting for their order to come. Nobody among them made unnecessary movement showing how discipline this bunch of people are

Even after being blast by Rayleigh powerful will they can keep calm

" Oh? Only some of them fall this time, it's look like you amp their training a lot. And most of them are new face here" Rayleigh said interested, he was not one to brag but, not many can stay conscious after being hit directly by his will, and if his haki is compared, there are only handful of people that can surpass him. And one of them was his captain and his 'rival'

That's why after seeing that only around 15 out of 60 people that was knock out, he voice his surprise. Eventhough he didn't go all out, their strength spoke volume in this part of the sea.

Tommy on the other hand didn't response to Rayleigh as he look blankly at the crack that was slowly expending under Rayleigh foot, his hand is shaking and his left eye twitch the more he follow the line of crack until it stop

He took a deep breath, and wave his hand that is not holding the gun

"You guys can dismiss, take the unconscious to their room and leave a notice of their 'training' will be starting again."

"Y-Yes Mister Shelby"

The people shake violently when hearing the word 'Training', nod their head and quickly move away from the scene, not wanting to involve themselves with the two drama. Their senior already warn them about how those 2 always on odd with each other before coming here.

" Ah " Rayleigh rub his neck as if he just got strangle he then notice  that Tommy is looking at his feet, he follow his gaze before his thought freeze. 'Shit'  he quickly trying to change the topics and greet Tommy with a cheerful expression " Tommy, how're you doin- OOOYYY"

*Bang*

Rayleigh quickly lean back his body, did a quick backflip and kick Tommy hand that is holding his gun.

Tommy foresaw the kick and immediately release his gun as his hand was kick away by Rayleigh. He did a turn and grab back his gun with his other hand before continue shooting at the figure of Rayleigh that was fast running away

*Bang*

*Bang*

*Bang*

"Don't get chummy on me you fucktard" Tommy continue shooting Rayleigh that is running around the ship evading his bullet. Even though with Rayleigh running so fast that leaving an afterimage everywhere he past.

Tommy didn't lose sight of him as his eye always set on Rayleigh and even manage to made a couple clean shot, if it's not for Rayleigh drawing his sword and change the trajectory of the sea stone bullet he will be a bloody mess right now.

*Thud*

With a quick movement, Tommy drop the empty magazine on the ground and swiftly reach out for behind his pant and pull out a new fully loaded magazine

*Click*

The sound of the magazine clicking into place was loud enough to be heard in the ship

Rayleigh meanwhile didn't stay idle, he stomped his foot hard on the ground making it crack even further and quickly rush at Tommy as he see that Tommy already aiming at him with his gun.

"Tch" predicting that it's already too late for him to shot at Rayleigh as he almost nearing him. He open his right palm, the engraving that is engrave into his glove shine brightly before clench his fist, and what appear in his hand is a long style black dagger as he hold it in reverse grip before quickly dash toward Rayleigh, not wanting to be on the inferior side in turn of momentum

As they both reaching closer and closer toward each other, they both take their own stance preparing to clash with each other weapon

Rayleigh double edge sword and Tommy long dagger both was coated with their own respective color of Haki with Rayleigh dark shade red aura and Tommy dark orange aura.

"….Those two idiot" the door to the cabin suddenly open and Mikota step out of the door with his tired eye. His left hand holding a cup of coffee while his right hand holding a still smoking hot croissant

"I should know to not leave both of them alone *sigh*" Mikoto let out a mouthful of smoke that he inhaling before. He already told Tommy to not cause any trouble before heading to the kitchen to pick up something to eat before meeting with Rayleigh

He just left them for 10 minutes…

10 Fucking minute dammit

Luckily both of them are within his range of Haki and he know where to stop them, or else, the history might repeat itself.... And another ship shall be sacrifice

Seeing that they're about to clash and will be causing a enough shockwave to blast the ship to oblivion he said slowly while walking forward and munching his croissant

"Issho ….separate them"

"As you wish"
