After Kiyomi left, Kein also took his leave and went back home.
The moment he arrived back home, he entered his room and took out the basic swordsmanship scroll.
He then sat on the bed and began to read and try to understand; thus, the fun began.

Clicking yes, the function went on a twelve-hour cooldown.
After he did this, he just went on with his day, but he ensured that he placed it in two slots that previously belonged to shurikenjutsu.
The day just went as usual, uninteresting as always.
But soon the next day arrived, and this time he made sure to get there by 6:30.
After this, Kiyomi arrived.
>Kiyomi<
I never thought you would get here before me.
All Kein could do was sigh.
>Kiyomi<
Now let's start up today's business. Show me what you have learned about basic swordsmanship.
Kein, who was looking at the system interface, was staring at the notification.
[Basic swordsmanship has completed ×42 runs.]
>Kein<
This should be easy enough.
Show me what you've got. Kiyomi said as she pulled out her sword and threw a short sword towards Kein, who caught it.
Come at me!.
In a flash, only blurs could be seen as they both parried and countered each other's moves.
*To think he can master this much in one day.
Thou Kiyomi had more experience and added her own customization to the basic swordsmanship.
But with a system, what cannot be done?
[Skill variation detected]
[Assimilating:...1%..2%...5%...10%....20%....35%...47%....59%...67%....78%.....89%....95%...99%..100%]
[Assimilation complete]
With its completion, it replaced, or more like consumed, the previous skill, and almost instantly the previous advantage Kiyomi had vanished.
Shocking her even more.
*How did he just?
As they continued to duel, sending bright sparks around them.
He couldn't help but smile.
Just now he found out that inserting two skills of the same into the slot grants other effects.
As of now, every time the Iron Fist technique completes a run, it replenishes his stamina, basically making it infinite.
'What monstrous stamina does he have?
They had been fighting for almost an hour.
Yes, Kiyomi, could have defeated him.
'I have to hold back to test his limits, but with the look on his face, he doesn't look exhausted in the slightest, Kiyomi.
But little did she know that if Kein hadn't gained anything from this duel, he would have given up already, but now.
°•Ding•°
[Skill rank had been elevated to advanced variant swordsmanship.]
'Finally.
With this, his intensity increased as his sword took on the form of a whip due to it's speed, trying to bypass Kiyomi's defenses.
'What,how can he get this good in only an hour?
Plus, his iron body physique which is derived from the iron fist technique, his strength began to push Kiyomi back, but Kein knew how much she was holding back.
But since this is only a basic swordsmanship test, she couldn't use any other technique.
But that changes when Kiyomi says, "It looks like you have mastered the basics, and you even manage to advance them.".
>Kiyomi<
So let me show you a technique that only very few in the clan have been able to use.
What?!! There is such a thing in our clan, Kein questioned.
>Kiyomi<
Of course, it was one of the reasons I was able to attain the Jonin rank.
She then got in a stance, seeing this he knew he was f**ked.
In a hurry, he dashes towards her, but it is still too late.
Second form: Form of the coiled serpent.
Clang! Then his sword made contact with hers, and the next moment a repulsive force sent him crashing back into the trees, destroying at least two through his crash.
What have I done? Kiyomi said.
She then dashed to the crash site to see Kein almost unconscious.
Kein!! She calls out.
Kein's vision began to blur until he blacked out.
One day later<
Where am I?
Kein said this as he woke up to find himself in a hospital bed.
Wait! What happened back there, he said as he got a flashback of what happened.
What was that technique? I have never heard of such in the Naruto series, and why?
Just a second later, Kiyomi entered to see him awake, at first the scene was awkward, but then.
Look, Kein, I am sorry for what happened back there; because of my carelessness, I forgot to hold back.
But Kein just replies, It's really okay, but what sort of technique was that?
>Kiyomi<
It is one of the main heritages left in our clan, but due to its difficulty, only a few have been able to learn it.
And as of right now, only I have been able to learn some of its forms.
So how many forms does it have? I asked curiously.
>Kiyomi<
Around twelve, if I am correct.
>Kein<
And how many are you able to perform? he asked.
>Kiyomi<
I have only been able to perform second and third form so two, she says, showing a hint of disappointment in herself.
Kein, who couldn't help but think.
She only knows two, and because of it, she attained elite Jonin rank.
So what if one learns all of its forms?
Can one achieve the rank of the sage of six paths?
As of right now, I can't think of any possibilities for what potential it had.
But now, I need to first learn the technique to determine its potential.
So having solidified his resolve, he asked, Can you teach me?
But she just replies, " I'm really sorry, but this technique can't be taught; you have to learn it on your own as per the clan rule.
But don't worry, I will talk to the clan leader on you behalf, and since he owes me a favor, he shouldn't refute the request.
And also what is the name of the sword technique?
To be continued...
Drop those ideas below thanks
Don't forget those power stones or anything else.
Rasengan!!!!
