The moment Raul launched at Diablo, the stone foundation beneath him was shattered and destroyed. Drake frowned at how brittle it was. So he casually made adamantium foundations and gave them to one of the demon builders.
The fight was temporarily stopped and the arena was replaced with the new foundation.
When the fight was resumed, Raul was still in sage mode. In the earlier confrontation, he had punched Diablo with all his strength but Diablo didn't even flinch. He realized how strong Diablo was now.
Raul's strength was leagues above Minato after eating the fruit of might. Even the hulk would be seriously injured with a slight punch from him.
Raul again sped towards Diablo and started throwing punches. The air rippled with every powerful punch but Diblo would elegantly deflect or evade every attack. It was obvious that Raul lacked fighting experience, his punches lacked the intent to injure and his stance was weak.
Just like Drake, Raul only inherited the knowledge of jutsus and abilities. He didn't get any fighting experience. He knew how to used his jutsus and abilities and how to apply them in a fight but he was still knew at fighting.
Raul used gang signs and nine shadow clones appeared with a white smoke. They all had sage mode and had the same speed as Raul as they all lunched powerful strikes at Diablo.
Diablo would patiently guide Raul on how to fix his fighting stances, where to apply force and to experiment with both chakra and ki.
As a result, Raul would visibly improve his fighting style. His techniques were being refined and his energy wasn't being waisted.
Drake noticed that his father knew more jutsus than what was shown on the anime. He would use different elements and even mix chakra and ki. Surprisingly, the power of the jutsus would be greatly amplified.
After ten minutes, Raul was covered with a chakra cloak and his speed and strength were increased again. But Diablo still treated Raul lightly, like fighting a child.
After another 20 minutes, Raul was finally panting while holding his knees. He looked at the still relax Diablo and thought he was a monster.
"You did well for your first fight, Lord Raul." Diablo complemented.
"Thanks but I'm still lacking in fighting style." Raul replied.
The next combatants were Sarah and Testarossa.
Sarah had a very kind personality and she would prefer avoid fights. But she knew that if there was ever an accident, she would have to make a choice.
Unlike the avatar, who had a human body, Sarah had eaten the fruit of might and her body was very strong and tough. But still lacking fighting experience, she used her elemental bending and started firing attacks at Testarossa.
Sarah had inherited the fighting styles of each bending element and knew how to used them but was still unfamiliar and her body was stiff. She felt shame because she felt she was dancing but the powerful attacks she unleashed left her stunned.
Sarah would unconsciously use ki in her bending and the attacks seemed to be injected with steroids since they were many times more powerful than normal. She felt the arena was disadvantageous for her since she couldn't bend the metal the foundations were made of and couldn't used earth bending.
The version of the Avatar that Sarah had inherited knew many other elements besides the main four. She knew metal, lava, lightning, blood and ice bending. She even knew Toph's sensory technique.
Sarah was avoiding close combat but Testarossa was not sparing her. She would close the distance between them and force Sarah to use her vending styles to defend herself.
Just like Diablo, Testarossa was very patient and would guide Sarah in her fighting style. Sarah was beaten to the point of tears but for her disappointment, she would instantly heal any injury. The pain was excruciating but the improvement was real.
Although Sarah was very physically strong, she barely harnessed her strength, her punches lack lethality, she was simply too kind to hurt anyone.
Drake frowned but didn't want to pressure her mother. If she didn't want to fight, he wouldn't force her. He would let Testarossa teach her how to defend herself. He would make sure her mother never have to fight in her life.
Yes, Drake was very overprotective to his family.
After another 30 minutes of fighting, Sarah was sitting on the ground panting. She felt completely spent and wondering just how strong Drake's subordinates were.
Sarah didn't use the avatar mode since she didn't feel it was necessary. She tried using blood bending on Testarossa but for her dismay it didn't work.
"Mother-in-law, you need to be more aggressive when fighting your enemies. Being kind to your enemies, is being cruel to oneself." Testarossa commented.
Sarah's lip twitches when she heard Testarossa call her mother-in-law and wonder if they had confirmed their relationship with his son, but she still answered:
"I honestly don't want to fight. I understand my son concerned for me and my husband, and I get he wants us to be strong but if possible I would prefer to live in peace my whole life. That doesn't mean I'll run away from a fight though, if I have no choice, I'll follow your advice and don't show mercy to my enemies." Sarah replied.
"Mom, you did good. And don't worry, I'll make sure you never have to fight." Drake said while holding his hand out to his mother so she could get up.
Sarah smiled and stood up, "thank you son."
"Here mother eat this." Drake said while giving her a senzu bean.
Sarah felt her stamina and ki restored and felt refreshed. She gave a thankful smile at Drake and went back to rest on the stands.
After resting for a few minutes, Drake's parents resumed their training with Diablo and Testarossa.
Drake brought Agera back from the real world and asked him to teach him his sword style.
Agera's sword style was called the Hazy Style which had four techniques: Plum Blossom- Five Petal Thrust, Pomegranate- Six Petals Slash, Willow- Seven Petals Calm and Duble Cherry Blossoms- Eight Petals Flash.
Each technique was strong and Drake felt his fighting style would improve with them.
Agares felt honored that his lord wanted to learn his sword style. He was more than happy to teach.
Drake and his family, including Orbelina, trained all day and when they felt tired, he would give them a senzu bean. They learned quickly and by dinner everyone had improved significantly.
Drake was sitting on the couch inside the castle and was waiting for dinner to be ready. Zonda was using the dungeon meats.
Helena hovered in front of him and reported:
"Drake, I finished all the tasks you assigned me. I created the companies, rented a modest office building, and finished the AIs for the supercomputers."
"You just need to arrange the office building and install the computers. I even called an internet company that will go install the internet once we're ready."
"I also spent 40 millions on buying the desert you wanted. What do you want to build there? Do you want me to get you permission for construction?" Helena asked.
"Yes, I need permissions on building greenhouses, roads and oil pumps." Drake answered.
Drake had noticed that he could summon anything from the Ark System including resources points like Oil Veins that were introduced in the desert of Scorched Earth map.
He was planning to transform half the desert in many greenhouses for harvesting all kind of vegetable and fruits. The other half would be filled with oil pumps. Although he could make as much oil to cover an ocean, he wouldn't find excuses to where the oil came from. So he would use the desert as a cover to sell oil. He would saturate the oil industry so much that gas would become worthless.
"I'll get the permissions in no time." Helena said.
"How many acres of desert did you get?" Drake questioned.
"57,600 acres or 90 square miles." Helena answered.
"That's enough for now. Once you get the permits, I'll send a few demons to build everything. I'll just need to place the oil veins and water sources in person, that'd be complicated." Drake said.
"When are you planning to check the office building?" Helena asked.
"Tomorrow after school. I wish I could just quit school but I have no choice." Drake said.
"There one more thing, Drake." Helena said.
"What's up?"
"Some people has been investigating you."
Drake raised an eyebrow and many people came to mind.
"Who?" Drake asked.
"The military, the Strategic Homeland Intervention, Enforcement and Logistics Division, the X-man and a terrorist group called Hydra." Helena reported.
"Interesting, why are they investigating me?" Drake was curious.
"Apparently, a teacher made a anonymous call to the military and said he suspected you had awakened mutant powers. Now you're under everyone radar. They know of you buying the desert and about Kingpin giving you money. Many had asked kingpin but since he hasn't met you, they couldn't get much information." Helena reported.
"I got it. Keep an eye on them and let me know their next moves. If they try something funny, I'll treat them how they treat me." Drake said and Helena nodded.
