Chapter 203: Shinpaku Alliance''s Training


    It has been two weeks since Shizuha woke up and Kenichi was back to his normal schedule except for the fact that he was going on a date with his girlfriends every single day.


    One day it was with Saeko, on another day it was Miu, then Renka, then Shigure, then Kaname and Kisara. Like this, he was going on a date with his girlfriends but still, he was having fun with them.


    But that''s not all he was busy doing. His masters were really pushing him to the limits, specifically his master Akisame who made his restraints weight 1000 kg now and even made new leg weights for him each weighing 50 kg. That means he now carried 200 kg dead weight on his body and still had to perform regr tasks along with his training with his masters.


    One more surprising thing he found out was that Ukita has starteding to Ryozanpaku every day to learn Jujitsu from Master Akisame. He didn''t even know that he wasing here for more than a month because maser Akisame would always take him somewhere else to practice.


    During this week Ryozanpaku also decided to host the children training camp for martial arts. But Nijjima had already taken care of it

    At a certain dojo


    "Whew didn''t think this would be this popr!" eximed Tsutomu as he looked out into the dojo yard.


    "Indeed, the yard was filled with children ranging from ages 4-7, all yelling and ying with each other.


    "This does help with the ie" nodded Tayu as she cuddled with her daughter, "Kiri is starting to get big and eating a lot more aren''t you?"


    "Kiri giggled as Tayu began ying with her, letting Tsutomu take the reign of the ss. Next to him were two disciples of Zanshin Taisha-Ryuu, Kurando, and Ketsu. They volunteered to help in the dojo as instead protecting someone from the shadows this was much easy and they would even have time to train and ask Tsutomu and Tayu for advice if they needed some.

    At the Shinpaku Alliance


    Kenichi stood in the middle of the room, ncing around at his opponents. Two of them circled around Kenichi, each poised to strike. Kenichi slowly shifted himself, always changing his blind spot as much as possible. In his hands was another weapon that he had yet to truly use against an opponent, the wooden three sectional staff. Though he had no problem while using the sword he had already told Shigure that he will either use a wooden sword or a sword made by her for him that''s why even after learning sword style from Shigure Kenichi hadn''t used it much.


    Suddenly, Takeda rushed forward, his fist up towards his chest as he went to engage Kenichi. Tsuji charged forward along with him, utilizing the Koppou steps, sliding forwards towards Kenichi from behind.


    Kenichi swiftly spun his staff around his body, preventing both opponents from easily closing in. Quickly keeping it rotating, Kenichi struck with his staff towards Takeda, who managed to dodge it but was unable to go forward.


    "Gotcha!" eximed Tsuji as he tried to punch Kenichi, only for him to duck under it and back kick him in the chin. Tsuji managed to sway away just in time but felt his brain get rattled a bit.


    With a butterfly kick, Kenichi maneuvered himself so he was facing both opponents, quickly retracting the staff so he held all three of them in one hand. Takeda looked at Tsuji with a nce before charging in once more, weaving his body as he did so. Suddenly, Kenichi thrust his weapon out, the staff extending towards Takeda. Takeda''s eyes widened as he quickly put his guard up. The staff impacted Takeda''s arms, sting his arms as he stepped back. Tsuji rushed in, hoping to catch Kenichi off tempo. Tsuji then had to put both hands up as Kenichi spun in the air, the staff whistling along with him before it aimed for his head.


    "Haha, blocke-gah!" eximed Tsuji had managed to block the attack to his cranium but had miscalcted the joints of the three sectional staff. The middle part had impacted on his arms, but thest section continued its momentum and struck Tsuji in the back of the head.


    "Chance!" roared Tsuji as he ran forward undeterred.


    Kenichi used the momentum from Takeda''s hit to rotate with it and struck Tsuji in the ribs. Tsuji winced as the sectional staff was about to wrap around him, then grabbed thest staff as it came back. His other hand grabbed another part of the staff, causing Kenichi to be stuck. Before Kenichi could force Tsuji to let go, Takeda had jumped off of Tsuji''s shoulders and tried tond a meteor straight punch to Kenichi''s jaw.


    Kenichi quickly grabbed the attacking fist and threw Takeda into the matted floor, causing Takeda to cough in pain. Kenichi flipped over Takeda and threw him once more into a wall while dodging Tsuji''s amateurish attempts to hitting Kenichi with a weapon.


    "Ha. let''s see how you- OW" winced Tsuji as he swung the weapon like a il, only to hit his head again with the weapon at the end of one of his swings. The weapon had wrapped around his head and hit him.


    Kenichi used this to his advantage, sliding in an elbowing Tsuji in the chest.


    "Alright that''s enough" shouted Sakaki, "Kenichi you lose again."


    "Why doesn''t it feel like he lost?" groaned Takeda as he picked himself up.


    "Because he''s supposed to learn how to use weapons properly," said Sakaki, "That''s what he promised to Shigure and she also gave me strict instructions that Kenichi has to learn to use it, and that means not losing it so easily and resorting to empty hand techniques, where he''s had more practice with. This also helps doubles as practice against fighting weapons for you all."


    As Tsuji and Takeda propped themselves up, Sakaki looked around Shinpaku base to admire the architecture that Niijima had ced in it. Miu was actually sparing with Renka while Saeko had decided to take on Kisara and few other Valkyries though he was honestly surprised by the improvements of these girls. Freya wasn''t at the base but had opted to return to her grandfather''s dojo to get some advice. It was rather hard for Freya to do so, but the fact was that her grandfather, besides being entric was a powerful person to learn from.
