I teach kendo in the ninja world

The six-man team has been assembled, and they are all outstanding genin carefully selected by him. Araki was in a good mood after returning home, so he decided to go to the consciousness space to meet new opponents.

It was still the familiar vast void, and a "Book of Swordsmen" with a light golden luster floated slowly in the center of the space.

Araki used his consciousness to open the title page and saw the following words:

【Name】: Araki (Yachiryu)

[Realm]: Sword Heart Begins to Brighten | Sword Intent·Wind/Thunder

[Sword Skills]: Combo Skills, Rushing Skills, Sword Drawing Skills (Flying Sword Style), Dragon Cry Flash, Wind Sword Skills, Yunlai Sword Skills (Thunder Wedge, Star Return, Sky Street Parade)

[Others]: Chakra Refining Technique, Three Body Technique, Wind Release Ninjutsu, Thunder Release Ninjutsu, Secret Technique·Kiriyu (under study)

"It's as simple and clear as ever!"

Araki looked at his information, and without further delay, he continued to slowly open the "Book of Swordsmen" backwards. After turning over the page with the image of Ke Qing, a brand new image appeared in Araki's eyes. In front of you.

It was a man with a long dark blue ponytail, his temples hanging down to his collarbone, and a handsome appearance. He carried a samurai sword about the same height behind him. The scabbard was purple, and the kimono on his body was also lavender. Jun man.

The expression on his face was very calm. He was not as full of murderous intent as Himura Kenshin, nor was he as aloof and aloof as Yasuo. He seemed to have an elegant aura of quietly admiring the flowers, birds, wind and moon.

And unlike the several swordsmen who appeared before, this person also has his own background.

It was a long, slightly dilapidated stone step. He stood at the top of the stone step, with a simple mountain gate looming behind him.

"It's you, gatekeeper!"

This very distinctive feature allowed Araki to recognize the other party's identity at a glance.

It was the unknown swordsman who was summoned to the Holy Grail War in the name of Sasaki Kojiro to guard the gate of Ryudou Temple.

He possesses extraordinary sword skills that are enough to suppress King Arthur Arturia head-on, and can even exert combat power comparable to magic and noble phantoms in a mortal body.

And his secret [Secret Sword: Swallow Return] has touched upon the concept of time and space such as multi-dimensional twists and turns, and was therefore evaluated by Nasu as one of the strongest in mankind.

In terms of the realm of swordsmanship alone, he is already at the top of mankind.

However, Araki never worries about his opponent being too powerful, because the stronger the opponent, the greater the benefits he will gain in the end.

"The worst case scenario is that I will be abused over and over again!"

Araki, who had long looked down on life and death, muttered in his heart.

"Assassinservant, Sasaki Kojiro, you want to pass through the mountain gate behind me...ah, is the Holy Grail War over?"

When the elegant man reported his job description and name as usual, he suddenly found that the place he was in seemed different.

"Did you summon me this time?"

He did not look down upon the Araki boy because of his appearance, and asked about his background very politely.

"Not bad!"

Araki nodded. This was the first swordsman he met who could communicate smoothly, "My name is Araki Yachiru!"

"Eight-thousand-ryu... What a grand vision!"

As a swordsman, Sasaki Kojiro already understood his mission the moment he met Araki's eyes.

"Do you grow in battle? That's fine. Swordsmen should communicate with each other using the swords in their hands!"

He raised the knife with one hand, tilted his body slightly, and his eyes suddenly became very sharp.

At this moment, Araki suddenly discovered that although he could still see the other person with his eyes, in the perception of breath, Sasaki Kojiro seemed to be completely integrated with the surrounding environment, without leaking any flaws.

"Aura blocked? Harmony between heaven and man?"

Araki recalled the other party's information, holding the handle of Samehada's knife tightly with both hands.

"It's about to get fucked, Samehada!"

[The art of instantaneous wind]!

The breeze circulated and wrapped around Araki and the Samehada muscle in his hand at the same time. The speed of one person and one sword suddenly increased, and he appeared in front of Sasaki Kojiro in an instant.

[Long Xiang Flash]!

He exerted force with both arms, lifted up the same shark's muscles, drew a semicircle in front of him, and slashed towards the enemy's chest.

There is a saying, if he was holding the [Wind Sword] in his hand at this moment, he would definitely use [Nine-Headed Dragon Flash] to cover the opponent's vital points with his first hand.

but……

Samehada is too heavy!

Araki had no way to wield Samehada to perform such fancy combos as easily as he wielded the [Wind Sword], so he could only choose to defeat skill with force.

Ding!

Sasaki Kojiro also drew his sword out of its sheath. The 1.5-meter-long narrow tachi gently touched the bandage of Samemus, and he retreated.

It was obvious that his many years of immersed experience in kendo told him that when faced with a sword like Samehada, fighting head-on was not the best option.

Moreover, the way he used force to retreat was very clever. Not only did he not suffer any harm, but it made Araki feel like he was cutting cotton with a knife and was unable to use any force. It was very uncomfortable.

What's even more surprising is that with just a slight touch of the sword in his hand, Sasaki Kojiro discovered the true face of Samehada.

After he stepped back, a slight look of surprise appeared on his face: "Your weapon is actually a living creature. It's really eye-opening."

Hearing this, Araki narrowed his eyes slightly: "Good eyesight."

After saying that, he no longer tried to hide it. With a flick of his wrist, the bandage covering Samehada shattered into pieces, revealing Samehada's true appearance covered with barbs.

"I've never seen such a strange sword in my life. Even I'm starting to get excited!"

Sasaki Kojiro held the long sword [Monogan pole] in front of him with both hands and said in a serious tone.

"Oh? Why don't you ask me what's so special about this knife?"

Araki also held the sword with both hands.

"No need," he shook his head, "If you want to know your enemy, this sword is enough."

Before Sasaki Kojiro could finish his words, he was already rushing forward, and the [Monogan pole] long sword, which was not inferior to Samega's length, had been handed to Araki.

Dangdang!

Araki used the strong wind to wrap around Samehada to reduce its weight. Although the swing speed of the sword was still slightly slower than that of his opponent, with Samehada's thick body, he did not fall behind quickly.

After a "ding-dong-dang-dang" battle, Sasaki Kojiro, who had taken the initiative in the battle, once again withdrew, with a slightly confused tone: "Your swordsmanship style... doesn't seem to match such a giant sword..."

"Is swordsmanship such an inconvenient thing? The so-called eight-thousand-ryu great swordsman is a person who is proficient in all swordsmanship schools and can use any sword in his hand like an arm. This is the goal I am striving for. .”

Araki replied firmly.

"So that's how it is. I'm so narrow-minded."

Sasaki Kojiro smiled lightly, shifted his body's center of gravity slightly backward, and raised the long sword sideways.

"The next move is a move I created out of boredom because I occasionally wanted to kill the swallows in the sky. Please appreciate it!"

Having said that, he stepped forward. The speed was obviously not very fast, but at that moment, Araki, who was the first to bear the brunt, felt that the world was silent, as if everything in the world had slowed down.

"Secret Sword Yan Hui!"

He didn't even have time to make any moves when he saw three purple slashes appearing directly in front of him as if they had crossed the space, blocking all the spaces he could dodge.

At this moment, everything seemed to become distant and blurry. In his field of vision, only these three bright sword lights were getting closer and closer.

laugh!

Severe pain came, and Araki's vision went dark and he exited the space of consciousness.

……

"Ahem, is this swordsmanship that touches the realm of time and space?"

At home, Araki opened his eyes, and the pain of being instantly cut into three pieces didn't seem to completely dissipate.

"What kind of swallow is it that requires such skills to be chopped down?"

After experiencing this trick personally, Araki couldn't help but become extremely curious about creatures like swallows in the moon world.

The mystery and power of [Secret Sword Yan Hui] made him tremble with excitement. He could not restrain his urge to continue to experience it. Feeling that his spirit could still hold on, Araki closed his eyes again.

consciousness space.

Although he had just been killed by Sasaki Kojiro with a sword, Araki was not afraid at all. He shouted excitedly: "Come out, Sasaki Kojiro!"

The light golden book pages turned, and the swordsman in purple appeared again.

This time, Araki changed his mind.

"Since the visible blade can't deal with you, so what?"

With a thought in Araki's mind, a strong wind suddenly emerged, and the [Wind King Barrier], which had almost never been used in actual combat since it was developed, wrapped around Samehada's body.

The broad and thick blade, which was originally more than one meter long, disappeared, leaving only half of the hilt in Araki's hand.

"This is……"

A flash of surprise and nostalgia flashed in Sasaki Kojiro's eyes, "You actually know this trick, what's your relationship with Saber?"

"Saber, I am her master!"

Araki said casually, while wielding the invisible blade and slashing at the opponent again.

Dangdang!

The sound of weapons clashing continued.

Even though Araki had hidden the sword, Sasaki Kojiro could still clearly grasp every attack he made, and even a sudden bite from Samehada was easily dodged.

"Since you know Saber, didn't she tell you that this trick is useless against me?"

Kojiro said calmly: "Swordsman's battle does not only rely on the eyes. More often, I will use the sixth sense to sense the surrounding situation. The eyes are used to catch the enemy's flaws, just like now!"

As soon as he finished speaking, he saw the opportunity and flicked his wrist, forcing Araki half a step back. Then he gathered some strength, and then three slashes that filled the world struck again!

This time, because he was mentally prepared when he was pushed away, Araki directly placed Samehada in front of him, and then took advantage of his small size to shrink his body and use Samehada as a shield to resist [Secret Sword] ·Yan Hui].

However, the final result proved that this was of no use. Although he let Samehada help block the first knife from the front, the other two knifes that came almost at the same time still made his vision go dark.

Enter the conscious space again.

Before Sasaki Kojiro took action, Araki asked: "Is that state just now [mind's eye]?"

"Yes, if you use your mind or sixth sense to observe, you will find that the world is very different."

Sasaki Kojiro did not hide it, and introduced Araki's [Mind's Eye] ability openly.

"Foresee danger, sense and take precautions..."

Araki chewed two words in his mouth, and looked at Sasaki Kojiro with fiery eyes.

Whether it is [Breathing Interruption], [Mind's Eye] or [Secret Sword Yan Hui], they are all extremely powerful abilities, not to mention that Sasaki Kojiro's kendo realm has reached the level of [Ming Jing Shisui] who is not affected by external objects at all. territory.

To defeat such an enemy, opportunism will not work, because his dust-free and transparent mind will not be shaken by any unexpected situation.

Therefore, Araki honestly held up Samehada, trying hard to absorb the opponent's nutrients in a sword-for-blade fight, experiencing pain and joyful progress amidst death over and over again.

……

The moon sets and the sun rises, and the sky becomes bright.

The sun shines through the mist and onto the land of Kirigakure Village.

After fighting hard all night with Sasaki Kojiro, Araki got up in high spirits and rushed to the No. [-] training ground with Samehada on his shoulders.

Although he died countless times in the consciousness space last night, when he held the hilt of Samehada's knife today, the feeling that he felt more comfortable than before made him instantly forget all the pain at night. And make up your mind to come again tonight!

As long as they can feel clear progress, no one will choose to give up their efforts.

No matter how painful the process is, as long as you can get positive feedback in time, all difficulties and obstacles will be nothing!

At this moment, Araki increasingly regarded this sentence as a guideline.

Because he is the true portrayal of this sentence now.

As the saying goes, Yan Hui abused me thousands of times, but I still treat her like my first love.Nothing more than that.

Carrying Samehada and humming along the way, Araki arrived at the No. [-] training ground.

Zabuza and others arrived very early. As soon as Araki entered the door, he saw the six of them standing there in three waves.

Zabuza and Heigu stood together. Although the two of them usually fought with each other, the friendship between teammates was not fake.

Terumi Mei, Hua Bing and Lin Eo Yuri were standing together. It was not strange for Araki that the first two were standing together. After all, they were best friends, but when was Xiao Lin Eo also abducted?

Honglian stood alone in the corner, looking a little lonely.

Seeing that everyone had arrived, Araki closed the door to the training ground with a backhand.

Today, training ground No. [-] is reserved by them.

"Teacher Araki!"*6

After he walked in, the six genin shouted in unison.

"Well," Araki nodded, "I won't say any more nonsense. You all know why I brought you together. Now, in order for you to get to know each other, you should introduce yourselves first. Mainly Including names, what they are good at, and their respective goals.”
