Gori and his father continued training the skill. His father explained to him that he must understand it while using only a small amount of energy in order to complete it properly. So Gori began reducing his energy and applying the rules. After days of training, he still had not mastered the skill.
Gori told his father about his failure. His father replied, "Do not be sad. You are amazing to have reached this far. With patience and training, you will become stronger."
Gori then went to a training arena located among the mountains. This was the same arena where the two strongest warriors in history once fought. Their power was greater than the entire FPL group, and no one knew how they had obtained such strength.
Gori began training there, and suddenly, he completed the Rock Skill.
His father said, "Your strength is wonderful, my son. You have mastered a difficult skill, but use it for good."
Gori asked, "Father, who are the ones at Level 5 of the Holga?" His father replied, "They are the leader Huraid and his nine followers."
Gori said, "I killed one of them." His father was shocked and asked, "Are you sure?" Gori replied, "Yes, father."
His father said, "Their power is enormous, and it is impossible to kill one of them." Gori replied, "But I did it during training." His father said, "Are you certain he did not escape?"
Gori said, "Yes, I killed him." His father replied, "I am proud of you, my son."
Gori said, "You told me that after training, I would go to the First Seal Village to Master Kuarik." His father replied, "Go, my son, but be careful."
On the first day of his journey, Gori met a man named Hokarama. Hokarama said, "Who are you, boy? I am the most important person in this region. You cannot face me."
Gori became angry and struck him. Hokarama said, "How dare you strike me? I am Hokarama, the undefeated."
They began fighting. Gori attacked rapidly, but his strikes had no effect because he was only using physical strength.
Hokarama struck Gori with a weapon called FLOK, stronger than DATR, combined with his seals A C E G.
Gori blocked the weapon using the Primitive Weapon Defense Technique. The block lasted one minute, but the technique was broken, and Gori was injured.
Gori fell into a coma. He dreamed about his weak past and remembered his father's hopes. He decided not to give up.
He woke after three hours. At night, Holga levels 1–3 appeared. Though exhausted, Gori attacked them.
He gathered his energy storage and used a forbidden speed technique. His speed became monstrous, destroying the land with every step and killing the Holga quickly.
Gori collapsed and remained unconscious for thirty days.
He awoke in a small village. A girl told him she would call her father. The man introduced himself as Borklio and explained that his daughter Doria had cared for him.
Doria told him her mother had died, and she now cared for the house.
Her brother arrived — he was Hokarama. This time, Hokarama spoke kindly, and they became friends.
Hokarama asked Gori to travel with him to the First Seal Village.
As Gori headed toward the village, he saw…
