Chapter 11: ssifications of Masters
Sakaki, Akisame, Apachai, Kensei Ma and Shigure all there mouth was opened as they knew the answer of Miu''s question but they weren''t able answer the question as there brain was still processing what just happened.
The noise wasn''t from Apachai''s kick but the weight anklets that Kenichi removed from his ankles and what happened after that was more unbelievable but they were also Grandmaster ss fighters and were able to calm themselves down after a minute or two
Akisame:"Let me tell you what happened Miu, you must have also seen Kenichi taking out something from his ankles right"
Miu:"Yes"
Akisame:"Those were actually weight anklets which Kenichi were wearing"
By this time Kenichi has came down from the tree as everyone has came to stop the match it''s obvious that they won''t be able to fight anymore hence Kenichi was going towards his weight anklets which were in Sakaki''s hands right now.
Sakaki:"Ho they are atleast 35 kg each since when were you wearing them"
Kenichi:"Well I started wearing weight anklets since I was 10 years old with 5 kg of weight in anklets and never took them of only when I increased the weight of the anklets would I take them off"
Sakaki:"What you have been wearing them since 10!?"
Kenichi:"Yes and I didn''t wore it anywhere else as it may affect my hight so"
Miu:"But how does Kenichi not wearing his weight anklets help him from dodging Apachai-sans Chai kick"
Akisame:"You had half closed your eyes otherwise you would have seen what happened, the moment he removed his weight anklets he did a somersault in the air and used Apachai''s leg which he used for his chai kick as a stepping to jump on that tree"
Sakaki:"Seriously it''s my first time seeing someone using Apachai''s Chai kick as a stepping"
Apachai:"Apachai happy I taught Kenichi Muay Thai then I am Kenichi''s Master"
Akisame, Kensei Ma and Sakaki''s mouth twitched hearing Apachai iming himself as Kenichi''s teacher. Whereas Kenichi just smiled and said nothing.
Everyone here knew that it was Kenichi himself who learned Apachai''s techniques while fighting. So everyone other than Apachai knew that Apachai didn''t taught Kenichi a thing he himself just copied Apachai''s movement and was able to grasp the techniques.
Akisame:"Now Kenichi do you think we are good enough to teach you or you want to fight with someone else know"
Kenichi:"No it''s fine I don''t wanna be hitted more, then I will be in your care"
Akisame:"Good then follow me inside since you have already had a sparr with Apachai and had also learnt his techniques any more won''t be any good"
Kenichi:"Ok"
Kenichi then took his weight anklets from Sakaki wore them and followed after Akisame.
Akisame:"Ok Kenichi first thing I want to ask you is why do you want to learn martial arts, as I can see if you watch someone use it against you more than once you can also use it if not at there level but still use it"
Kenichi:"Well to tell you the truth I have too much strength hence if I fight with someone without any restrictions things will end pretty badly and some may even die cause of it, hence I want to learn martial arts cause it can help me to know how to use my strength correctly so that I won''t atleast kill anyone"
Akisame:"You are saying you want to learn it to fight without killing anyone"
Kenichi:"I won''t necessarily want to fight it''s just if something or someone I want to protect is in danger then I will fight them and even in that fight I don''t wanna kill my opponent but just defeat him"
After hearing Kenichi''s answer everyone in the dojo smiled and had the same thought in their minds.
Akisame:"Katsujinken"
Kenichi:"Huh!! Katsujinken"
Akisame :"It Literally "the Life giving fist". Fist Means Life, is a belief among martial artists where it is believed that martial arts practitioners should not kill an opponent, even if their own lives are at risk....."
Kensei Ma:" They believe that life is sacred, that one man can not take another''s life, and so they never fight to kill, always looking to end fights with those involved alive, they always seek to preserve the lives of all."
Akisame:"I was also going to say the same thing Kensei"
Kensei Ma:"Well I couldn''t control myself Akisame...but you have chosen a hard path Kenichi you know that"
Kenichi:"Well not necessarily"
All dojo members:"Huhhh"
Kenichi:"If I am always stronger than my opponent by a margin then my life won''t be at the line"
Kensei:"Ho that''s some confidence you have there"
Akisame:"Ok then let me tell you fighter ss first so that you would be able to differentiate their levels"
Kenichi:"Fighter ss!!??"
Akisame:"Yes, The first one is LOW CLASS DESCIPLE .A martial artist who is personally trained by a Master, a disciple often dwells deeper into the master''s techniques and the Martial Arts world than the normal student does. The next level is MIDDLE CLASS DESCIPLE, A Middle ss Disciple are stronger than normal people and Low ss Disciple. It has shown that this rank is when the disciple begin to show above average physical power and martial arts skills though it''s not quite high.HIGH CLASS DESCIPLE are next in line, High ss Disciples are stronger than normal disciples and are able to defeat them with ease very quickly in fact.These three are the desciple ss do you understand Kenichi.
Kenichi:"Yes"
Kensei Ma:"Let me tell him some as well.The next is EXPERT CLASS The Expert ss are martial artists who are stronger than all three sses of disciple but weaker than a Master. Essentially, the expert ss are the mid-level ss for martial artists. Though far more powerful and stronger than a Disciple, the expert level is also where martial artists are at their most vulnerable. This most likely stems from the fact that experts have graduated from their masters'' tutge, and thus must then stand up for themselves on their way to be a master themselves. The next ss is LOW CLASS MASTER A Low ss Master is where a martial artist had mastered their martial arts to some extent. Though they''re much weaker than a real master. "
Sakaki:"I will tell him from here, the next ss is MASTER A master is a powerful martial artist that is far more powerful than a regr person, Disciple, Expert, and Low ss Master who, as the name suggest, is a master at their respective martial art. As master ss can be applied to anyone who has mastered their martial arts, many masters tend to vary greatly in strength."
Shigure:"The next ss is GRAND MASTER CLASS A Grand Master is the next ss of a master-ss martial artist who had not only mastered their respective martial art, but has perfected and pushed it to a new level at which they are able to perform tasks and fight in a way that a normal master could not easily do. Grand Masters are basically master ss fighters who have reached the pinnacle of human abilities and virtually have more physical capabilities then the former. They also have massive Ki flow abilities and tend to have immense physical strength and speed. All the masters in Ryozanpaku has reached this ss"
After saying this Shigure and everyone else were behaving as if they were great beings to make an impression on Kenichi.
Kenichi:"Is there any more sses above the Grandmaster"
Apachai:"Apachai will tell the next is ADVANCED GRAND MASTER Advanced Grand Master is a level above Grand Master but is weaker than the next, the Legendary Master. This ss can be mistaken as the Legendary Master level due to the tremendous skills and abilities the three masters of this ss have disyed. However they are not the same as a Legendary Master as they have yet to be considered legendary or invincible in the martial arts world. Despite being one level lower than Legendary Master, all three Advanced Grand Masters are quite famous and even feared for their immense power in martial arts."
Kenichi:"So there are only three Advanced grandmaster and what is the Legendary master"
Furiniji:"Legendary master is the highest ss a martial artist can achieve and I am one of the legendary master so you think you can beat me 6 years now huh....
