Chapter 28 - Kisuke & Yoruichi (1/2)
Kisuke led the two towards a dead-end wall at the back of the shop.
Kisuke didn't stop walking and passed through the wall leaving only ripples on the surface which surprised Koneko as she didn't feel any signs of magic being used, especially so after releasing her nekomata form.
Koneko's senses when she reverted to a nekomata multiplied including her ability to sense magic power and aura since she isn't stopping the use of her Senjutsu anymore.
Yoruichi didn't stop and followed Kisuke. After being left alone, Koneko braced herself and hurriedly followed.
What she saw on the other side is a small room with an elevator door at the opposite side of where they came from.
Kisuke already stepped inside the elevator with Yoruichi. Koneko followed suit and saw just buttons. One with an arrow symbol going up and another one with going down.
Kisuke pressed the going down button and the door closed. Contrary to Koneko's expectations, the didn't move but the label on the top already changed from 'G' to 'B'. The door opened and Koneko still saw the same small room where they came from.
She thought that something went wrong but Kisuke and Yoruichi exited the elevator and walked towards the opposite wall and passed through it again. Koneko didn't think much at this point as she thought that they were returning.
To her surprise, however, she didn't go back to the shop's interior and found herself in a chamber.
This is the Urahara Shop training ground which Kisuke recreated from his old world. It is a large room with a ceiling and walls painted to resemble a cloudy sky over a floor of desolate, brown, craggy land dotted with dead trees.
Koneko stood there blankly for a minute before looking towards the amused expression of both Kisuke and Yoruichi, ”Where is this?”
”Welcome to the Urahara Secret Training Ground.” Kisuke introduced this place to Koneko.
”Secret training ground?” Koneko was dumbfounded. She thought that they will only be training in a relatively large room or an open space when they mentioned going to the 'training ground'.
”This is a 27 cubic kilometers underground training facility complete with fortification. Even if you nuke it from the outside this place will survive, probably. The north side has a small lodging that trainers can occupy if they want to stay for a few days. The east and west side are the real training grounds. And the south side is for me and Yoruichi.” Kisuke continued explaining in great vigor.
”Enough with that, let's motivate Koneko-chan for now.” Yoruichi cuts off Kisuke's rumblings and suggested.
”Motivate me?” Koneko tilted her head at Yoruichi.
”Hoho~. Itching for a fight, aren't you?” Kisuke started stretching his limbs.
”It's been a while since I returned to my human form after all. I want to let loose for a bit.” Yoruichi did the same thing.
”Uhmm, I know that you two are good at fighting, but how will that motivate me?” Koneko interrupted.
”Koneko-chan, we aren't just going to teach you how to fight, we'll also teach you how to improve your overall strength. When your opponent is very strong then your fighting techniques can eat shit.” Yoruichi slowly released her Spiritual Pressure.
”W-what's this!?” Koneko felt like all the hair on her body stood up when the aura Yoruichi released brushed past her.
”Within the training ground, whatever you do, nobody will notice it from outside. We can play to our heart's content if it's here. If we do this outside, we'll just end up disturbing our neighbors.” Kisuke also slowly released his Spiritual Pressure that matched Yoruichi in intensity.
