Ch. 5 Training Progress and Thugs

So now Jotaros routine was mostly waking up early and going to train at the Urahara shop where he was taught about being a soul reapers and about SoulSociety as well as the 4 basic shinigami techniques.

Jotaro rarely went to school, even less frequently than before. And his teachers didn't understand how his grades never dipped. Some even went up. He had some of the best grades and rarely showed up to class. He even convinced the principal of his middle school to allow him to take the tests at the end of the week.

The principal didn't want to agree since that would break so many rules, but if Jotaro failed a test he could expel the delinquent and he wouldn't be his problem anymore.

But that didn't work and Jotaro continued to get high marks on his tests and passed with flying covers.

Orihime tried dragging him to school but she rarely even saw him. He only came home for dinner and then to sleep. And when he was asleep he was like a Boulder. He wouldn't wake up even if she dragged him off the bed.

Orihime and Saiko had to use all their strength to move him back onto his bed. And they couldn't do it. He was so heavy for them. And they were surprised by the muscles of Jotaro. It was ridiculous for a 12 year old. He woke up the next morning with his legs on the bed and his head on the floor. But he had a pillow beneath his head.

Jotaro got used to going around the city at night in his shinigami form. He just wanted to see if he could find any hollows but nothing popped up.

He did end up 'making up' with Orihime. Over time she got used to his behavior and mannerisms. And she told the others as well. They were surprised but would believe it completely when they see it. They know he's not bad. But Orihime is naive.

Saiko was happy to see her son so motivated for something. She only saw him like this when he would chase cats or train at the dojo, but after some time he lost his passion or close to it. She didn't know what he was doing but he didn't come home from fights with delinquents. His clothes just had some dust and dirt on them and that was it.

And time went by like usual. For two years he trained nearly every single day. He was 14 and close to moving to highschool. He would actually have to go to classes when highschool started.

But his training so far had immense results. As his soul grew stronger so did his body. His body adapted to hold the spiritual pressure of his soul and it was evident by how his body was practically fully grown and stacked with muscle upon muscle. He truly looked like Jotaro. Just a bit younger. But his height at 6 foot 5 inches was ridiculous for 14 year old. He hadn't met Chad yet but knew he would when he went to highschool.

Jotaro requested a few items from Urahara. Mainly thing like his hat and modifications for his school uniform. He wanted to complete the look of he was going to play the part.

He got the hat that was ripped at the back but magically fit to his head. It was everything he hoped for and more. Since this one was actually magical. He got the golden chain that would hang from his uniforms jacket. The jacket also was extended to be more like a trench coat. And the two belts holding his pants up were a nice addition. What concerned him was that Kisuke had 'gifted' them to him withou asking for something in return. But he wasn't going to turn them down.

He trained with Kisuke in Zanjutsu and learning about SoulSociety and various other things. Yoruichi taught him Hakuda which was weird since it was shadow boxing mainly, and hoho which he was apparently gifted at. Tessai was an amazing Kido teacher. He was patient and explained thoroughly and watched over Jotaros practical uses and practices. He would have Jotaro memorize the incantations and then allow him to attempt it after watching how he does it. This allowed Jotaro to visualize the Kido and helped greatly.

His Kido training was the slowest but he still wanted to know them. He took his time and didn't rush. It allowed him to get used to his spiritual pressure and Reiatsu. He was learning how to regulate and limit the uses of such when chanting. And he even learned his trick to Eishohaki, which is a fancy word for chantless Kido. He could cast low level Kido without the chant. While it was fast, it was weaker. But he could just use more spiritual pressure to make up for it if needed. And then there was Niju Eisho, which meant double-chanting. Two chants would be said together in one chant to use two Kido spell at the same time. Tessai said 'While difficult at first it is worth it. Double-chanting will confuse your opponent. And it shortens the time needed to cast Kido spells allowing you more time for other things'

Tessai was a man of few words so Jotaro made it a point to pay close attention to the words he did say.

His teachers seemed to be masters in their respective areas. And he knew they were. They were the three teachers he would never want to get rid of. They were each Captain level and had such vast power and knowledge. Now the only thing that confused him was why they were teaching him. But he wouldn't complain about his strength skyrocketing. He will complain about getting his Sasha fed to him.

Damn Yoruichi beat him in cat-form the first day of hand-to-hand combat. She did it just because she could. And that fueled him to learn like no tomorrow.

Kisuke just danced around him while he was learning to figh with his giant zanpakuto. He truly was trying to make it as small as possible and it was like the fuckin buster Sword. So he just made his own Zanjutsu style with the minor help of Kisuke.

Things were progressing smoothly. And he would sometimes take an hour break to go walk around town in the afternoon to clear his mind. Overworking himself wouldn't do any good.

At the end of these two years he had rarely seen anyone else besides Orihime. So he was intrigued to see Ichigo running down a small riverbank. Imagine his surprise when he saw Ichigo deck someone under a bridge. It wasn't very big. He saw a big guy tied to a chair and it seemed Ichigo was trying to save him.

So Jotaro went to the bridge and then jumped down. Ichigo was being put in a head lock while two other dudes were trying to hold his arms back. Ichigo was punching a dudes face in and wasn't stopping.

"You've gotten stronger Ichigo" Jotaro doesn't take his hands out of his pockets.

The delinquents or gang members stop hitting Ichigo and get off him. They look at Jotaros figure in the setting sun and feel like they are looking at a sculpture. No human has any right to look like he does.

"Jotaro?" Ichigo has his fist raised to punch the guy again but has head turned to his childhood friend.

"But if you get hurt fighting these scum then you have a long way to go". He walks slowly and each step echoes under the bridge.

Chad watches with his bloody face. They had tied him to the chair and beaten him. He wouldn't break his promise and beat them up.

"Who you callin scum you fucwad?!" A random thug ran at Jotaro with his fist raised. As soon as he got close to Jotaro he swung his fist out. He aimed right at the chiseled jaw that was annoying him. But the next thing the delinquent knew was that he was on his back next to his friends. He felt like something had cracked a few of his ribs. He coughed and sucked in air.

Jotaro only kicked the dude and nearly broke his ribs. He meant to hold back more than that, but his body was still getting stronger so he had to make adjustments mid fight.

"Ichigo, you've gotta try harder. How can you protect those dear to you if you get hit by this trash. Don't make your family worry about you going home hurt" Jotaro takes his hands out of his pockets and cracks his knuckles.

"Why don't I help you out, childhood friend" He says flatly with a malicious facial expression and smirk that promised a beating.

"Fine, I'll take your advice you muscle-head!" Ichigo unleashes his fist into the face of the guy in front of him. The guy gets knocked back a few feet through the air and lands with a thud.

Ichigo also cracks his knuckles. There's more delinquents here than in the show, apparently he made the delinquent thing quite popular. So says Orihime. He will just have to set these ones onto the right path.

Jotaro just knocked them back with quick light jabs. But to the delinquents, they would get blown back by a punch they could hardly follow.

Ichigo was also on the other side of the group but it took a few punches to keep a guy down from him. But he didn't need to keep them down. Just beat them and not get hit. Which he did.

Chad watched in awe as these two stacked a group of thugs. It struck a chord within himself.

After Ichigo and Jotaro scared the thugs into running away Ichigo collapsed infront of Chad. And when Ichigo turned his head to look for Jotaro he couldn't see the guy.

Jotaro had already went back up onto the bridge and continues his walk. "Damnit, That wasn't even fun. And there haven't been any hollows recently to fight. Yare Yare daze..." He moved his hat a bit. And it felt so great

1705 words.

It’s a short one, but I’d rather cut it where I did becuase it was a good stopping point. We’re also getting really close to the plot.
