The Legacy Of Kenjutsu

[Aoi.]

Oboro Kata: The third form (Form of the Moon God; Form of the Void) where the swordsman uses specific body movements to simultaneously dodge an attack while also closing distance.

[Typhon]

Gotta do better than that if you want it to be one of your specialties.

What element is it based on? Why is it based on that element? What are the advantages of it? How would you use it in combat?

[Aoi.]

The Element of Void is based on Emptyness,because witht the spacing between us we will no want noting between us and be able to close in on your taegets.Its advsntages is the near instant shifting of movements allowing the fighter to simutanously dodge attacks.In combat is basic usage is to close in small gaps between me and my target.[/i]

[Typhon]

Good, good. Now lets get to the training bit.

*Walks over to you and takes your weapons*

Now, come take this bell from me.

*Ties the bell to my waist and draws my sword*

When you get this bell, your training in the void form will be complete.

[Aoi.]

As told instructions,Kanade takes on the Hyuga stance easying off the pressure on herself as she is prepared to gain the bells,instanly running at a fast pace approaching with speeds as fast as she can drops to the ground,sliding like she is playing baseball but with that thought in mind,she uses the close range a using her leading foot as a spring causing her to flip over and closing the distance between the two of us before allowing you to react grabbing the bells

[Typhon]

As you slide towards me I place my left hand around my sheath and the other around the hilt of my sword. I crouch down in preparation to meet you head on, but to my surprise you use your foot to pop yourself up into the air. Though surprised, I'm far from fooled, and burst forwards from my crouched position drawing my sword and delivering a quick slash up towards your mid section while you're in the air.

[Aoi.]

As your slash is about to hit Kanade,she releases a small chakra burst from her tenktesus to repel the assualt,then dropping behind of you she tries again,by drawing her sword and placing it in a thrusting postion having lead the assualt,as she closes in on your the moment its about to hit your chest,she drops all her weight downards causing the slash to change to a diagonal only to hit your fingers to grantee that your hands cant move and grabbing on to the bells

[Typhon]

Oi, you don't have your sword, I took it, remember.

This part of the training is all about you avoiding my attacks, so you have no need for a weapon. Avoid using Hyuga techniques as well, just use your body.

As you close in on me the sword in your hands suddenly disappears. Now that you're unarmed, I slash diagonally down your torso from your left shoulder to right hip and quickly turn the blade to follow with a horizontal slash along your waist, right to left, wasting no time in between attacks.

[Aoi.]

As the sword is traveling diagonally towards Gilbert,he quickly using the swiftness of his feet,to push chakra from his left foot to burst to his right side causing your blade to pass him as it travels further downward,Gilbert takes the opportunity to grab your left and begins twisting it causing your grip on your blade to become very loose from the pain of the twisting of your arm,Gilbert then using his hands as a balance pushes his legs off the ground to begin hand standing on your back with one hand on your arm the second on your back Gilbert as he is coming over exends his right arm to grab the bells and then yanking it off your waist he then let's go of his grip of both hands while you fall to the ground Gilbert stands above you looking you down.

[Typhon]

Okay good. ^^

Now, stand in front of me. I'm going to slash at you, I want you to avoid the slash while taking a step forward and moving extremely close to me.

I swing my sword horizontally at your torso from your left to right.

[Aoi.]

[I]As Gilbert hears the instructions,he quickly takes a deep breath,but without a moment to spare,he sees his sensei hurtling towards him,with quick motion Gilbert readies himself,fasting his feet on the ground.He waits the swing to come near him,seeing it coming from his right left side,Gilbert pushes his back supporting foot off taking a huge step forward into the assault,as the blade is about to make impact Gilbert swerves his right hip outward causing his upper body to awkwardly being to fall towards the ground,with the view of the blade passing over his head as his eyes are now viewing the sky using his right hand he lands on it,using his chakra to rotate his body in a 90 degree angle and pushes off his hand landing towards your right side having him sliding on the ground.
Not bad huh sensei

[Typhon]

Too much movement. Don't waste any body movement, as it only lengthens your move.

Read.

[Aoi.]

O_o wow is it really that fast?! Ok let's try this again.
Gilbert awaiting your impact of your,standing completely still for a moment,as the blade is about to hit Gilbert's torso he steps forward moving at a blink of an eye,so fast it appears as if he was hit by the blade,but as the blade pass more and more Gilbert all the time was within only 1 feet of you closing off the distance making it impossible for you to extend your blade in time to react.

[Typhon]

Good. Once you use this technique you should be inside the enemy's defensive range, which will leave them wide open to attack.

(Oboro Kata: Kagenui) - Form of the Void: Shadow Stitch
Type: Defense/Supplementary
Rank: B
Range: Short
Chakra Cost: N/A
Damage: N/A
Description: The form of the void is a style of the Ogame school in which the swordsman makes quick movements to simultaneously dodge an attack and close the distance on their target. With this technique the swordsman rotates their body to narrowly avoid an incoming attack while simultaneously stepping forward to close the distance to their opponent. By doing this they move into extremely close range while the opponent over extends themselves, creating an opening for attack while the opponent is incapable of defending themselves. This can only be used to avoid certain techniques such as other kenjutsu or taijutsu, or even narrow elemental techniques. Larger techniques such as large fireballs would be too large to avoid.
~Can only be used by a person trained in the Ogame school of kenjutsu.
~Can only be used twice per battle.
~Can be seen here if the description isn't clear enough: http://www.mangareader.net/408-26591...chapter-6.html

-Done-

That finishes your mastery of the Void.

Lets move on to the Lightning form. Explain to me Ikazuchi Kata and how its used.

[Aoi.]

Lighting Form is the form that revolves the use of quick,direct attacks and speed.The form mainly is attacking the target head on with speed+plus power all in a simple package.

[Typhon]

Okay good.

Now do two thousand squats. With this on your back.

*tosses you one of the bars with two buckets of water on the ends that they use in all those martial arts movies*

Begin!

[Aoi.]

1,2,3,4,5,6,90,800,1999,2000!!

Jesus what a work out @_@

[Typhon]

Good! Now you got uber powerful legs!

The techniques of this style focus on taking advantage of gravity to produce high speed movements. Think of a track runner and how they stand before starting their race. They're bent over with their feet pressed up against the starting blocks. What we do, is use gravity to build up momentum by throwing our bodies forward and falling to the ground, and then in a sudden burst we push off just like those sprinters and redirect the momentum forward to increase our speed.

I want you to use that method to burst to that target over there.

*points at a target mid-range from you*

[Aoi.]

As instructed,Yoh stands up straight looking at the target,wondering what will come about with the speed.Closing his eyes,Yoh starts leaving his feet to rock back and forth,as he feels his weight at it maximum when leaning forward,as if he was falling Yoh opens his eyes as he feels the perfect timing using the timing correctly he sprints at high speeds just before he hits the ground and sprints at blistering speed towards the target

[Typhon]

Nope, don't feel like you're falling, actually fall. You're pushing off when your chest is only a few inches away from the ground. Try again!

[Aoi.]

Derpa

*freefalls and pushes of at great speed towards the clone*

[Typhon]

You fall short only reaching half way to the clone.

Come on, do it better, stronger, faster!

(be more descriptive)
