Chapter-13

—————–

After a few weeks…

“Phe~!! Phe~!!” the bird happily chirped as she flew around Yoriichi energetically

“This bird looks now perfectly fine,” Rayleigh said with a smile on his face as he saw the bird who was now healthy and perfectly fit also she seemed to get attached to Yoriichi

“She seems to like you alot, kiddo” Shakky commented from the side as she herself witnessed that after the recovering bird follows Yoriichi wherever he goes

“Hahaha, true now he got a cute partner for himself” Rayleigh laughed as he said this while shakky also giggled at this

Yoriichi smiled as the bird came and sat on his shoulder, and started leaning on him while rubbing her head on him like she was showing her affection for him

“You should give her a name, kiddo” shakky said this as she suggested since this bird is basically now Yoriichi pet

“That’s a good idea, give her a nice name,” Rayleigh said as he stopped laughing and supported shakky suggestion

Yoriichi also started to think of a good name, after hearing both of them and after a while, he decided on the name as he opened his mouth and said the name “Ember”

He decided to choose this name because even though the bird’s body is pitch black but her eyes are deep red and that’s the reason he came up with such a name

Hearing this, both of them nodded their head with satisfaction as they also liked the name that Yoriichi come up with

…..

As days passed by peacefully and another week was gone in the blink of an eye…

Today shakky has gone to another island to bring some supplies while Rayleigh has gone to do some fishing for food, And lastly, Yoriichi is now cutting the wood for the fire

But right now ember is not with him and Yoriichi is not worried because since this is not the first time Ember has been missing

After getting better, she always goes in the morning and brings something for Yoriichi like delicious fruit or sometimes she even brings him a gem or even a gold coin

“p-phe~….” ember sound came which was very light but still Yoriichi managed to hear which made him throw away the axe as he straight started running towards the direction of the sound with worry

Ember sounds like she is in pain and crying for help which makes Yoriichi worried since he could somehow feel that if he doesn’t hurry up then he might lose Ember

As soon he reaches the area the group of big birds grabbed Ember in their claws, ember right now looks very wounded due to blood on her feathers

Yoriichi become troubled because he quickly understands that the distance is too great between them which can’t be overcome since predator birds are in the air

Yoriichi can’t find any foothold to take a high jump in the sky, and throwing rocks is also not possible due to the strong wind

Even though he is helpless in this situation but he is fully determined to save Ember and somehow with that determination

He unconsciously uses a new power from his willpower and his determination, which causes predator birds to suddenly lose consciousness and start to fall at a very fast speed

Seeing this he ignored everything as he quickly used his breathing technique for speed and used a dash towards the falling ember

And successfully managed to catch it before she could fall onto the ground, at this moment Rayleigh also came in and saw all this mess

‘As I thought!!!’ Rayleigh said this in his mind out loud as soon he saw this entire scene because a few minutes he felt something was wrong as he started to run towards this direction

Then suddenly he felt someone using conqueror haki which only means two things which is someone powerful entered this island or yoriichi just awakened his conqueror haki

Even though conqueror haki can’t awakened by training or any other methods since it’s something which one person in 1 million people is born with and this is also the reason it’s called the ‘will of the king’

Rayleigh is always suspicious of yoriichi having yoriichi having ‘will of a king’ due to his monstrous talent

After seeing this scene, Rayleigh realized that his second prediction was correct and yoriichi was able to awaken his conqueror haki due to Ember which is very unexpected

Yoriichi didn’t speak to Rayleigh for even a second as he quickly dashed towards the house in order to save Ember because if he got late then he might not be able to save Ember due to blood loss

…

Next day…

Fortunately yesterday Yoriichi was able to save Ember from the neck of the time and it can also be said that Ember’s will to live also helped yoriichi save her

Yoriichi didn’t even sleep the whole night and took care of Ember with care but even though yoriichi didn’t sleep for the whole day still he is not tired at all due to his weirdly strong body

Right now ember is resting quietly and peacefully while Yoriichi watches over her, in case she wakes up

“Yoriichi come outside for a minute” Rayleigh said as he called out for yoriichi to come outside

Yoriichi did what Rayleigh said as he came out of the house and looked at Rayleigh who was sitting on the chair and told yoriichi to sit beside him

“You know what you did yesterday?” Rayleigh asked this question as he looked at him

Yoriichi showed a confused look at this since Rayleigh’s way of talking is like he has done something wrong which greatly confused yoriichi because he didn’t think he did something wrong

“You remembered I told you about haki? Rayleigh asked this question next and yoriichi nodded his head as Rayleigh again asked “Tell me how many types of haki are there?”

“3” yoriichi replied to Rayleigh’s question without any difficulty since he clearly remembered everything that Rayleigh taught him these years
