2 Chapter 2

Reinforcing my body and using total concentration breathing I launched at my opponent. I cock my halberd preparing to use a thrust aiming for my opponent's gut. Yet before I could land my attack my opponent duplicated himself. My 2 opponents came at me from both sides.

I immediately created a spear of light to help me block my opponent to my left. I swiftly cut down my opponent clone with my dual spearmanship. Yet my real opponent used the chance with me briefly distracted to grab my right arm and disarming me then he threw me onto the dirt.

My opponent went in for the kill. I created another spear of light to help me defend against his attacks. While my opponent was busy attacking I used my telekinesis to levitate my halberd and launched at my opponent like a homing missile.

'Thank you King.' As I used my plagiarized move from one of the main characters of the Seven Deadly Sins.

"Oi! Cao-Cao that's cheating! I thought we were only doing close-quarters." The descendant of the King of Monkeys said

"Naive! Don't you know Bikou nothing is fair and a fight! Now stop bitching and come at me you damn monkey." I said

"Ooh now you have done it." Bikou said as he launched at me with his extreme speeds.

I matched in speed and in strength. Our attacks were preventing either of us from landing a clean hit on one another. Bikou created 2 more clones as he tried to tire me out. Not that I was planning on winning.

"Extend Ruyi Jingu Bang." Bikou uses the copy of his ancestor's weapon changing its width and lengthening trying to keep me at a distance. As his clones try to do a pincer attack on me. Well to bad that I have to ruin their plans.

"Shinra Tensei." I used Nagato Uzumaki's signature jutsu. It wasn't as powerful as the original since I use mana instead of chakra but it was pretty damn useful. It took me almost a year to recreate this spell after studying the laws of repulsive forces.

The crushing force of the spell destroyed the clones and pushed back the real Bikou. Time to finish this!

"Time Alter: Double Accel." As I used the signature spell used by Kiristuga Emiya. Speeding up my blood-flow along with reinforcement and total concentration breathing allows me to surpass Bikou in terms of speed. This spell took me at least 3 months to recreate after studying about the human body and how blood flows throughout it.

I withstood the pain it caused me and charged at him. I was a few feet away from Bikou and that's when I felt disorenint. That sneaky bastard! Bikou is probably using Youjutsu to throw me off balance. I use my Chi to expel Bikou's own Chi which allows me to break out of my distorentated state. Bikou had no time to grab his spear.

The tip of the halberd was inches away from Bikou's throat. I was breathing heavily after using double accel,"Looks like this is my win 45-38 in my favor." I said with a cocky smirk on my face.

"You wish!" Bikou shouted and I laughed at his reaction. As I sat down on the grass.

It's been a year since I started training Sun-Wukong on the Mountain of Flower and Fruits where I met my first friend Bikou. He was an annoying battle maniac but one with a good heart. I am now 9 years old and my training has jumped in leaps and bounds since coming here. My spearmanship, my body, magic and knowledge of the supernatural were leagues above than what they were once was.

When I first arrived here I asked the master if I could use my imprint spell on.him. Saying it will cut down on his time which I know he use to do important things *cough*peeking*cough* which he happily agreed. I copy the Sun-Wukong martial arts style which immensely helped in my spearmanship. Though I don't have master's knowledge of fighting, I understand since imprint could copy martial arts not the experience of the person I used it on. True enough the Sun-Wukong style was perfectly suited to the True Longinus. Though I couldn't use all of the Sun-Wukong style since it was specifically made for Yokai.

Master put me through the ringer when it came to my physical regimen. He had me wear gravity weights while I do my daily physical training and other things to that nature. Not only that he gave me a thorough class about Ki and Chi. Ki was very similar to Haki from 'One Piece'. Ki is used to strengthen our body and allow us to sense our enemies by using our will power. While Chi is our inner energy used to heal and create illusions. Master taught the basics of both but just that since they Ki and Chi are the gateways to Senjutsu and Youjutsu.

The only things I could with Ki and Chi are a decent sensory ability to warn me about attacks from behind such as when I was fighting Ravager. Or break free from Youjutsu illusions and heal minor wounds such as scratches. I have also been studying magic.

Magic was one of the most fascinating subjects to me at least. Like seriously you could create any spell you could think of because of the free magic system in this universe. Yet many magicians are content with shooting fireballs or lighting bolts. Come on at least be a little creative! Thanks to master's connections with Grauzauberer I could check out 1 or 2 grimoires at a time to learn magic.

So far I have been checking out the basic beginners guide to every field of magic there is. Though I'm not planning to become a powerful magician, well not yet anyway. The information of the fields of magic might come in handy someday. Though if I choose a magic to specialize in it would be runes. Runes might not have the most firepower; it makes it up for being versatile. A true master like the Witch of the ShadowLands Scathach could literally destroy anyone, even a God with runes and her spearmanship.

And the best part they require no calculations. Unlike many other human schools of magic that require advanced calculations to perform a spell, runes don't. Rune magic is just a few steps: focus mana into your finger tip, write the rune and wholah. No complex calculations, just a simple way to achieve the same result as an ordinary spell. Thank you Odin for creating runes.

Finally the most interesting and important thing I learn about the supernatural world is how it's power scaling works. The supernatural beings ranked weakest to strongest on a 6 level scale. Low, mid, high, ultimate, leader and God/Satan class.

Low class could easily kill a small town or village without a sweat like Raynare.

Mid class can kill a regular size town. Sona

High class can kill an entire city. Riser

Ultimate class can kill a small country without breaking a sweat. Sairaorg

Leader class can destroy an entire normal sized country. Azazel and Micheal

Finally God/Satan class could easily wipe out an entire continent. Sirzechs and Indra

This world's actual power scaling makes so much sense rather than Ichiei Ishibumi power scaling. 'Hey look boobs' then proceeds to go from low class to high class in a matter of seconds. Fuck plot armour!

"Hey Cao-Cao stop spacing out like an idiot." Bikou said which snapped me out of my thoughts.

"I'm not an idiot!" I yelled at Bikou

"Yeah keep telling yourself that. So have you gotten use of your new spear?" Bikou asked

"Uh I can't believe a monkey brain idiot like you noticed." I snark at him

"Hey I am not an idiot." Bikou shouted out, "Still what's wrong man?"

I looked at the spear that master gave me. I remember it as if it was yesterday.

(***)

"What do you mean I can't use the True Longinus?" I asked my master

"Exactly like what I said. You are not here to learn to master that white spear of yours but to help you grow strong using your own strength. I will teach you all that I know about martial arts, the mystics art and senjutsu. You will have to figure out how to use that spear of yours." Master answered my question calmly.

I sighed and I understand what he was saying. I didn't want to rely on my sacred gear like so many others in canon. I thought by learning martial arts, magic and senjutsu would be enough to prevent me from relying on my sacred gear.

"But if I'm not using my Holy spear then what should I use?" I asked

"Here you go brat." Master threw out a spear and I caught it.

It was a very well crafted 2-handed halberd. But honestly I couldn' feel a thing from it. I'm very disappointed, I can't blame me, I have been spoiled rotten by the True Longinus. Master just laughed at the disappointment on my face.

"Don't make that face boy. That spear is called the Houtengeki, or the Sky Piercer. The prized spear of Lu Bu the God of War of the 3 Kingdoms." Master stated mischievously

"WHAT!" I exclaimed

"That's right boy, that spear belongs to the man who your ancestor executed. The poetic irony!" Master yelled

"Master I can't sense anything from this spear." I stated

"That spear is special because it grows along with its user. In the hands of an inexperienced fighter it's just an ordinary spear but in the hands of a true master it could kill a god. That's why I have given you this spear. I believe you can unlock this spear's true potential." Master said

"Thank you master!" I exclaim at his words of encouragement.

"Another word of wisdom. The True Longinus is the strongest sacred gear that the Biblical God created but that doesn't mean you are invincible so only use it as a trump card." Master said and I nodded in understanding.

"Well see ya I'm going for a walk in Kyoto. Maybe I might get lucky to see Yasaka taking a bath." Master started laughing while I sweat-dropped on my forehead.

(***)

I sat on the grass looking at Houtengeki and about Master's words. I have been training with the True Longinus since I was reborn into this world. Even with master's help I made great progress with my sacred gear abilities but I was nowhere near close to the balance breaker. Even then I do not know what my balance breaker will be like.

I'm pretty sure I won't get canon's Cao-Cao balance breaker Polar Night Longinus Chakravartin. After thinking long and hard I'm planning to hide the True Longinus existence and use it as a trump card or to quickly eliminate my opponent as quickly as possible.

"Cao-Cao! Cao-Cao if you don't respond I will put you in another illusion." Bikou said

"Alright! I'm listening!" I said quickly since I don't want to be put under another one of Bikou illusions.

"Well, what's wrong with the spear?" Bikou asked

"I'm not used to it." I answer honestly. "My Holy Spear is tied down to my soul so using a weapon like betraying myself."

Even after a year I still haven't felt anything change from within Houtengeki. Even when I used imprint on the spear countless times trying to learn how Lu Bu managed to create God Force: The 5 Soldiers of the God of War. Lu Bu's ultimate technique which allows him to use the characteristics of the halberd with total mastery.

"Ummm, I guess I could understand. I can't picture myself using any other weapon other than Riyu Jingu Bang ." Bikou said while rubbing his chin contemplating.

Before I could respond, me and Bikou heard a high pitch scream. We cover our ears due to the screaming. After the screaming stopped we looked behind to see Master laughing his ass off.

"Dam it old man." Bikou said

"That was immature Master." I said

We both complained to Master but as we looked we saw his early mirth was gone and was looking at me seriously.

"Cao-Cao," I straighten my body, "It's been a year since you started training and you have grown faster than any of my previous students. I think it's time for me to teach for real." Master said

I couldn't help but grin at what Master said.

"Whoah welcome to the big boys Cao-Cao." Bikou said

"Come on brat, it's time to start your real training." Master said with a sadistic gleam in his eyes yet I couldn't help but smirk.
