chapter 16

My name is Cain. I am the twin brother of Abel. 

We might be brothers but I don't like him a bit. He always has a stick up in arse. He always makes fun of me in front of other people. 

In reply, I too spread rumors about him. We fight every other day and try to find other ways to humiliate one another.

He is now the 5th strongest seat of marines and I am just a normal student. Actually, I didn't show my true strength because I wanted to humiliate him on the ceremony day. 

He knows I am planning something that much I know about him. He is confident that he can beat me.

And my brother was somewhat stronger than me in the past but not now. 

Last month during some work in the Garden I found a Devil fruit. It was blue capsicum type fruit with a swirling pattern on it. I hastily ate it and I got lucky I think.

It was a zoan devil fruit. Yagi Yagi no mi: model Ibex. 

It turned me into a goat human. Now with this fruit, I am stronger than my brother. I have a great healing factor and also great speed and amazing balance too. 

In short, this fruit was tailor-made for me.

So I held back a lot during our exam. And now that the Fleet Admiral has said All I have to do is challenge my brother and humiliate him in front of everyone.

Now we are at the battleground and a host for the battle is doing his speech. Who cares just start the battle.

" So now let me ask you guys if any of you want to challenge any of our top 10. If so then come out now. " He said. 

And at the very moment, I jumped from my seat and directly landed on the battle arena.

" I challenge you Abel for the 5th seat. "  I didn't wait for the host.

My brother too jumped from his stands and landed in front of me and with a grin said to me 

" challenge accepted my foolish brother."

Everyone gasps at that. They didn't think that their regular jockey would be the brother of the 5th seat. But they are in for a very big surprise.

I didn't stand there for the host to start the battle and started running at him. I closed the gap between us in mere seconds and curled my right hand into a fist and with force, I tried to strike at my brother's face.

But he had seen it and was ready. He grabs my hand and jumps upward and slams both of his legs into my chest. I skid back but gain control of myself. 

As I said before my balance has increased beyond human limitations. Ibex is a mountain goat. So naturally, their balance is top tier.

So I was on my feet and looked toward my brother who was running toward me.

I crouched down and kicked him with my leg and he tripped and started falling. At that time I lunged upward and slammed my knee into his falling head. 

*bam* 

The impact of my attack was great. But I know it will not even budge my brother.

" you have improved Cain. And quite much If I have to say," he said laughing. As I said these kinds of attacks are children play for him. He was on his feet in less than a second. Any normal student here would have his skull crushed.

" Oh, you are embarrassing me nee-san," I said to him. I might not like him but that doesn't mean that I hate him. These fights are more like a brother's quarrel for us.

" now when you are Improving why should I stay behind you come brother". He said to me with the hand sign of come toward me.

The nerve of this bastard, no not bastard he is my brother. 

I rushed toward him and tried hitting him with another fist. He blocked it and said

" Rifle punch "

Rifle punched one of the prized moves. When he uses this. He punched his enemy so fast that in a minute he delivered 100 punches at the target. The targets of bone and organs Rapture with the impact. He decimated quite the tree logs with it.

My skin is hard to compare to others so I am one of the people who can stand this move. But this move is always making me loose but not today.

When his fist touches my body my healing factor kicks in. 

I felt the pain that is. He has improved but I have a devil fruit to empower me. Sorry, brother but you lost.

I was standing there with a grin plastered on my face and he looked toward me and asked 

" How are you still standing "

I did not answer. Instead, I turned into my half Goat form. My legs became that of a goat and I grew 2 large horns on the head.

He was surprised by this turn of events and looked toward me. 

" Devil fruit," he said and clicked his tongue.

Do you know what the Goats are really famous for. They jump and kick. 

I combined both of them and formed my new attack.

" platform" 

In this attack, I used my opponent's body as a platform and jumped in Air and kicked them. ( exactly like how in baki that yunmai ayui does.) 

I jumped in the air and the power behind the jump cracked the arena. I landed a kick on my brother's face and then used the said face to launch myself into the air and again kicked him. I repeated it several times. 

You know one thing when someone attacks from the air you can't block the attack. The same happened with my brother. He wasn't able to defend himself and fell unconscious. 

I defeated him and became the 5th seat.
