The Human Giant

"Is there any place that has your interests?"

Accepting his duty of being a babysitter, Yoze tried his best not to show his disappointment. He didn't care about giving advice but he felt that it was more degrading to be forced to be a babysitter.

"There is only one place I want to visit and that is Shade Alley."

"You want to go to Shade Alley, do you know how dangerous that part is? If anything happens law enforcement won't be able to save you in time."

Shade Alley is considered to be the most dangerous part of Jade City. The government has little control of that area and it's used as the main hub for the black market.

As long as you have the money you can buy just about anything in Shade Alley. Of course, you also have to have the strength to protect yourself or you would just be eaten alive.

"Isn't that what you're here for?" Jackie said with a cheeky smile.

"I'm just a scholar. I'm here to provide you with knowledge but if you insist on going then I will follow along." Yoze shrugged his shoulders to show his helplessness and followed Jackie to Shade Alley.

Shade Alley was on the city's far edges and as Yoze and Jackie drew closer they could see that there were visibly fewer guards patrolling and that shaded characters stopped hiding.

"You seemed to be quite familiar with this area," Yoze commented noticing that the moment they entered Shade Alley Jackie beelined for a repair shop missing door.

"I come here when I need to escape from my guards," Jackie said stunning Yoze with his straightforwardness.

"Goddammit!"

Before Yoze recovered Jackie sprinted into the hotel. By the time Yoze ran after Jackie, a man with tattoos of dragons blocked the door frame.

"Stop, you are entering the Dragon Gang Territory!"

"The Dragon Gang? Never heard of it."

Yoze scanned through his memory to search for a gang that matched but he couldn't remember a single one that matched perfectly. The closest Gang was the Dragon Empire Gang however they were one of the three strongest gangs in Shade Alley. And their hideout was much deeper in Shade Alley.

Yoze could only come up with the conclusion that the Dragon Gang was just a small gang that was insignificant. As long as Yoze never came back to Shade Alley he wouldn't have to worry about the Gang's retaliation.

Compared to offending the director of the Martial Court Yard, offending a small gang wasn't much of an issue for Yoze.

"I want to see if you can stop a 300-pound man charging at full speed!"Instead of stopping like the tattooed man wanted him to do, Yoze sped up.

The tattooed Dragon Gang member gritted his teeth and stood his ground. He didn't believe he couldn't stop a scholar, even if that scholar was bigger than him.

"Bang!"

Crashing into the tattooed man felt the same as crashing into a teddy bear for Yoze and he sent the tattooed man flying. Entering the hotel, Yoze saw Jackie sitting with ten tattooed men who he assumed were also Dragon Gang Members.

Watching one of their members being sent flying like a toy, all the Dragon Gang Members took out their weapons which ranged from pipes to hammers.

"Jackie, I have been given the duty to educate you for the day. So I have to stay by your side."

"You dare to enter the Dragon Gang's territory! You must have a death wish! Get him!"

Seeing that they weren't going to let him just stay by Jackie's side, Yoze sighed before he felt an excitement for battle flow throughout his body. After fighting the thugs Yoze had felt the urge to battle. For the last 9 months, he had no one that could fight. Now that Yoze faced a battle he didn't suppress his urge for blood.

"Come!"

Yoze charged at the closest Gang member and threw out a Bear Fist. The sensation of breaking bone and watching the gang member fall to the ground made Yoze's blood lust explode.

"What are you waiting for, attack him all at once!"

Yoze didn't know who or where the voice ordering the Gang Members came from but he didn't mind since he was going to beat up everyone first and then find them.

Yoze suddenly felt a sharp pain coming from his back and he saw that he had been hit by a steel pipe. Knowing that he needed to face the fact that he wasn't invincible and needed to take these guys out quickly, Yoze unleashed a fiery Koi Fists.

"Whoosh Whoosh Whoosh Whoosh Whoosh Whoosh Whoosh Whoosh Whoosh Whoosh Whoosh Whoosh...."

For everyone one of Yoze's punches would come in contact with a Gang Member's face or rib. Once they were down, Yoze kept the chain of attacks going and went to the next member. The entire battle lasted only a minute before all the gang members were either unconscious or their bones were too broken for them to stand up.

Though Yoze won the battle, he had bruises all over his body. The adrenaline flowing through his body made it so Yoze didn't feel any pain. However, Yoze felt his hatred for Jackie and this babysitting job increasing.

"Jackie... where the f*ck is he!" By the time Yoze regained his composure, he realized that Jackie was gone.

Yoze checked every nook and cranny of the shop before finding a wooden board covering up a hole that led into a tunnel.

"He must have escaped through here."

Knowing that his job of working at the Martial Court Yard was at stake, Yoze jumped into the tunnel and saw two sets of shoe prints imprinted on the dust-covered floor. One of them matched the shoes that Jackie was wearing so Yoze ran as fast as he could to catch up to them.

"Jackie shouldn't have gotten far." Since the fight inside the shop didn't last more than a few minutes, Yoze was confident that he could catch up to someone who hadn't practiced martial arts before.

Even though Yoze gained more than 200 pounds through his body cultivation method majority of it was pure muscle. So not only did Yoze's strength get a massive boost but so did his speed. He was far faster than he was before practicing martial arts and could sprint up to 25 miles per hour if he wanted to.

Since his chance to practice martial arts were at stake Yoze didn't hold back and ran as fast as he could, zooming through the tunnel and leaving a dust cloud behind him.
