NOVEL NEXT WORLD Chapter 9: Graduation test?
Team 3 or Team Guy whatever the name can be called, had one unique thing! It completely consisted of users of martial arts, had a high Combat expectancy and was selected as a defence unit.
Getting told by their sensei to meet at the training ground which was near the river and forest very close to the forest and also only used by Guy for personal training they came at the exact time told by him at exactly 5 am.
Yoriichi knew about the extra test and was ready to prepare anything he might need in the test so he started sharpening his weapons not just his sword but all the weapons, his sharpening skills increased a lot and his weapons could slice through anything if he had enough strength and intent, sword intent exists in this world or rather it exists in every world.
Sword intent is nothing more but the intent to cut whatever you wish to cut and yoriichi managed when he cut the bolder just like Tanjiro, and intent works all the way like when using the breathing technique you have a lot of focus and it creates a different intent of focus and observation but its not one piece so its not observation haki and just intent of observation, it can be called observation haki but it makes it a different concept and different worlds have different realities.
Yoriichi could sharpen the Sword with little effort and it was as easy as just a simple touch to the sharpening stone and it's done. The blade's edge was very shiny and sharp like a razor. And it was beautiful every ninja or swordsmith who knows about the sword would want to look at it once again.
Coming to the training ground and seeing that sensei was not present he waited with his teammates and after a few minutes he came to the training ground "You are all looking quite excited " Guy said but it was only Lee who was excited for just being able to learn something and soon came the bomb of it being a test. " Get ready for a tough fight and come at me with everything you have got," said Guy "Sensei am I allowed to use intent?" Yoriichi asked " ya sure! Use whatever technique you have to fight me" Guy replied "Sensei I am talking about sword intent… ' the intent to cut anything, toughest metal to a diamond' It cannot be blocked, only evaded " Yoriichi tried conforming if his moves were allowed. " You are only 12-year-old children how did you get your sword intent," Guy said not really wanting to know the answer to that question, and approved the use only when no other team members were close.
" show me everything you have and fight me in your way all you have to do is to defeat me or exhaust me before 9 and if get exhausted before then you don't have to worry as I am here to train you" he said and started the fight.
We all gathered together and decided that it would be Lee to engage first and we would fight after seeing a few moves we surrounded Guy and Lee started a Taijutsu match with Guy, he looked quite excited and we were trying to understand his fighting style, after 2 minutes neji jumped and started his taijutsu on Guy and it looked quite good his technique was perfect and he used his 8 trigrams 32 pams technique to engage and keep the combat going and after 10 minutes I switched with him for some reason my intensions were understood and he stepped off and I used the basic water breathing to enhance the body and pushed forward and tried to hit him with the first form water surface slash, which very obviously did not work as he jumped up dodging it completely.
I also jumped and used the second form moving forward and water materialised around my sword. With the momentum of the water wheel, I moved for another strike which he dogged by jumping back, I dashed forward with the Ninth Form Splashing Water Flow and used the Fourth Form Striking tide and my sword moved with the flow to strike with the force of a tide, he for some reason dodge it all and I switched with Lee and He had some basic taijutsu with Guy to keep him engaged and after 10 Minutes Neji took his place and started doing palm strikes for the next 20 Minutes, his Strikes were as ruthless as mine and Lee and Guy saw that it was totally different from his clan's Techniques and it was barely dodgeable and was Lethal at every attack was to either cripple or kill the opponent, this way of fighting is something he created by observing my moves, it sure was very non-honourable but it was to the point very effective fighting style.
In these 30 Minutes, I changed my breathing to thunder breathing and Neji was doing Palm strikes there was a sudden stop as all of them looked towards Yoriichi who was on a quick draw and low centre stance and the air started vibrating and cackling and a few yellow lightning sparks were coming off the body parts, and then they heard the words "Thunder Breathing First Form: Thunderclap and Flash" There was a lowd Thunderclap sound and they saw a yellow flash, but Guy was able to understand and he instinctively opened his first gate to dodge that high-speed attack which was at a speed of Mach 1 breaking the sound barrier, for some reason he did not notice that he had opened the first gate he did it so instinctively.
It all ended in an hour as Guy was Still unable to believe he opened his gates instinctively and not forcefully it was in one way improvement for him and also a need of worry as it meant that he was using the gates a lot which could harm his body in a certain way. We had a little chat and were told to come here again at the same time for training.
With the demon eye training and chakra collection, Yoriich was able to sense using nature's sense and he is thinking of making an intent out of it just like observation haki, he had also reached a little limit in spiritual growth and he felt something that was stopping him from moving forward and so after reaching home he sat down and gathered some nature energy by breathing technique and started sensing his spiritual platform and found a limit in the soul which he felt he could push through and so he tried to force the limit and understood that the limit was a type of tests a soul required to increase his spiritual energy.
He felt it and saw his fears, his fear of survival and so he tried to fight his fears at first but it is not always easy to fight your fears so it took him around twenty minutes to defeat his fear and as he did, he felt like he had left the realm. His senses were clear and he could sense a lot of things like emotions, life force, chakra and intent.
It is not difficult now to restore lost memories so he quickly started going through and restoring all the memories he could again and he succeeded in getting access to all his memories of the two lives, but for some reason, he felt like there were just no memories of the reincarnation he had previously, it's like it never existed but he knew that there has to be as humans reincarnate and gaining back memories is just easy as long as you have spiritual energy and he was left confused but he did not think about it for long and with so much spiritual energy he got an insight in something, chakra is spiritual and physical energy so it is possible to use yin and yang separately, and the more spiritual energy you have the more chakra control you have.
When you are born your soul is new as nothing old can remain after birth, which includes memories and spiritual energy, your spiritual energy locks away those memories and thus the new soul is weak and needs time to get used to the world and make spiritual energy by experiencing the world, the soul cannot accept the experiences very quickly because it is new and without spiritual energy, so its a slow process and the newborn is slow at learning but things change when you have enough spiritual energy your capacity of learning and experiencing and accepting things increase.
The King's aura got a boost with the increase in spiritual energy and the opening of the limit. It has the same capabilities as the conqueror's haki but the conqueror's haki and king's aura are different as that it requires the user to have the will to conquer things like a pirate and the king's aura is all mysterious for Mc as he had it before. He doesn't need to learn it and he instinctively knows how to use it now that it's under control, he can use it to put a little pressure on others with the king's aura or spiritual energy, his other intent is also enhanced the same way.
