Kimura Kazuki soon arrived at the Mingming District and followed the address to the Yagyu Kendo Hall.
He was quite surprised to get this address before. Unexpectedly, the Yagyu family also opened a kendo gym. Maybe while teaching Kenichiro Yagyu's daughter, he could also teach part-time at a kendo gym? He would be happy to receive double salary.
When I arrived at the Yagyu Kendo Hall, I found that the door was very deserted and no one was walking around. When he entered the door, he saw a middle-aged man sitting at the front desk. He was holding a mobile phone and lowering his head. He let out a low laugh from time to time and didn't know what he was looking at.
"Hello."
As soon as Kimura Kazuki spoke, Kenichiro Yagyu, who was playing with his mobile phone, looked up. Having watched NICONICO's online video, he naturally recognized the other person. He turned off his phone, stood up immediately and introduced himself, "Kimura-kun, I am Kenichiro Yagyu."
Without waiting for the other party to speak, Kenichiro Yagyu came out from the front desk. He pulled Kimura Kazuki with enthusiasm.
Soon, Mucun Kazuki arrived inside the kendo hall.
The Yagyu Kendo Gym cannot be seen from the outside, but the interior is extremely spacious, with bright yellow floors that are clean and translucent. There are rows of bamboo swords placed next to the corner, and a plaque with the name "Yagyukan" hangs on the wall, with the four characters "Kenshin Tomei" in flying phoenixes hanging below.
However, there was no one inside the entire kendo hall.
"A new Beichen Kendo Gym opened in the next street, so all the students from the Yagyu Gym ran away." Kenichiro Yagyu saw Kimura Kazuki's doubts, and he smiled and explained.
Mucunheshu nodded.
Hokushin Kendo Hall is a well-known chain of kendo gyms in Tokyo. It is spread all over Tokyo. There are also Hokushin Kendo Halls in other prefectures, but not as many as in Tokyo. There is also a Beichen Kendo Gym in Jinwen District, and the Beichen Kendo Gym teaches the Beichen Itto Style.
Beichen Ittoryu believes that kendo is not only a technique, but also an art.
In the late Edo period when real sword fighting was popular, Hokatsu Itto-ryu improved the practice method of using bamboo swords and protective gear, which had a great influence on modern Japanese kendo. Therefore, in modern society, Beichen Yidao style is also a kendo that ordinary people are keen on.
Generally speaking, as long as people living in Tokyo want to get started with kendo or improve their kendo strength, they will almost always choose Beichen Kendo Hall. After all, ordinary people don't understand the traditional kendo circle. In addition to practicing kendo, they also participate in various kendo competitions.
Of course, there are many schools of Japanese Kendo, each with its own strengths. Other counties also have well-known kendo schools and kendo halls for everyone to choose from.
Kenichiro Yagyu brought Kimura Kazuki to a quiet room. He motioned for the other party to sit down, then poured Kimura Kazuki a cup of tea and said with a smile, "Kimura-kun, I wonder what your current strength is." Without waiting for the other party to speak, his tone was a little He said helplessly, "My daughter is relatively naive. She feels that only people who are stronger than her can teach her."
Kimura Kazuki nodded with a smile, "It seems that your wife is very confident, which is good." Then he changed the topic and did not express his position, but wrote lightly, "Mr. Yagyu, what you should practice is the Yagyu Itto style sword drawing technique. Right." When Kenichiro Yagyu suddenly looked up at him, Kazuki Kimura said lightly, "I can feel the sword intention in your body, calm and peaceful but ready to move."
Yagyu Itto-ryu is the core swordsmanship of the Yagyu family. The Yagyu flying sword style was created based on the Yagyu one sword style.
The reason why Yagyu Isshin wandered around and started a new school in the first place was because he scorned the core swordsmanship of Yagyu Itto-ryu, "Yagyu Drawing Technique".
Yagyu's sword-drawing technique focuses on cultivating energy and spirit. The Yagyu family believes that a person's daily energy is limited, but weapons are dead objects that can contain infinite spiritual energy, so as long as people integrate their limited spiritual energy into the weapons in their hands day after day, year after year. When you pull out a sword that contains infinite spiritual energy, you have already won.
Yagyu's sword-sharpening technique is a typical example of ten years of sharpening a sword.
However, Isshin Yagyu was born in Japan's Warring States Period, a period when father and son were at odds and brothers killing each other was the norm. The country's great names are torn apart, the Allied forces will turn against each other, and wars will continue, which is even more chaotic than during the Spring and Autumn Period of China. There are more than ten or twenty famous names in this small and small place.
During the Warring States Period, how to cultivate spiritual energy for weapons? This is the way to seek death.
However, after Kimura Kazuki finished speaking, his face showed confusion, "But... your Yagyu sword drawing technique seems to be a little different." This is not something that can be felt, he is not that powerful yet. It's because Yagyu's sword-drawing technique requires him to keep the sword close to his body, even when eating, he has to hold the sword, but obviously Kenichiro Yagyu didn't do this.
This is different from communicating with the sword spirit. He consciously and actively activates it. Yagyu's sword-drawing technique is unconsciously nourished by spiritual energy.
Kenichiro Yagyu looked at Kimura Kazuki in shock. When he heard this question, he took a deep breath and said, "Because I transformed Yagyu's sword-drawing technique. After understanding the sword's intention, I used the sword's intention as the core and nourished it with spiritual energy. The purpose of the sword is no longer focused on cultivating weapons." Seeing Mucun Kazuki's calmness, he smiled bitterly and said, "I learned this from Isshin-sama's "Dodge Drawing Technique". "
"One-dodge sword-drawing technique" was actually created by Isshin Yagyu from "Yagyu drawing sword-making technique". The "Flash Draw Technique" uses aura as the main component and spiritual energy as a supplement to create an extremely powerful sword in an instant. Essentially, the more spiritual energy in the body, the stronger the power. It's exactly the opposite of "Yagyu's Drawing Technique".
Kimura Kazuki nodded. He glanced at the other party and said, "If you don't believe in my strength, Mr. Yagyu, we can have a test now."
"No need." Kenichiro Yagyu knew that the other party's direct attack on the sword intention in his body was a clear indication of his strength, so he refused directly, "I believe in your strength." After saying that, he stood up, "I have already served Kimura-kun You have prepared your reward, please wait for me." After Kenichiro Yagyu went out, he glanced behind the door. The shock deep in his eyes had not dissipated, and he murmured in a low voice, "Is it really a sword master?"
Sword Master, this is the highest honor in the traditional swordsmanship world. This title is not given by anyone, but a state. Rumors... The most obvious thing about reaching the realm of Sword Master is that you can see through the sword intentions of all swordsmen.
Everyone's sword intention is different, some are restrained, some are passionate, some are domineering, and some are sharp. With different sword intentions, even if they use the same style of swordsmanship, the power of their moves will be different. Knowing a person's sword intent can effectively prevent and target them.
When he had a phone call with Ono Goyoshi before, Ono Goyichi said that Kimura Kazuki had seen through the sword intention in his son! It's just that although they were surprised when they talked, they couldn't believe it in their hearts.
Kimura Kazuki looks like he is only seventeen years old. I'm afraid he is still in school... Such a young sword master? The two of them obviously didn't believe it.
But just after Mucun Kazuki sat down, he revealed the sword intention in his body with one sentence, which shocked him.
So when Kimura Kazuki wanted to compete with him, he refused because of the inexplicable emotions in his heart. As a result, he regretted it as soon as he refused, because as long as he competes, he will know how strong the other party is.
However, there is no regret medicine in the world. Maybe after you get familiar with it, you can try it with someone else.
