The village chief standing to the side also looked somewhat helpless.
A good reputation can be good or bad.
Steel Tomb's temper is well-known in the Sword Forging Village, and no one can control him.
After he had vented his anger, he turned and plunged into the depths of the forging workshop, still clutching his knife.
"Wait in the village! Don't leave the forging village until it's fixed! If you dare to damage it any further, I'll kill you!!"
Seeing that Steel Mound had entered seclusion, Tetsuji Kawara Tetsujin shook his head helplessly.
"That's just his temperament. He's lived with knives his whole life, so don't take it to heart. You can rest assured that the knife is in his hands. You can take this time to soak in the hot springs in the village to relieve your fatigue. It will be very good for your health."
"Thank you, village chief."
Ryosuke nodded with a smile.
The hot springs in the knife-forging village are filled with steam, creating a unique and rustic atmosphere.
Ryosuke immersed himself in the spring water and let out a long, comfortable sigh.
Wow, this is life!
Just as he closed his eyes to rest, he heard the sound of rushing water beside him.
Ryosuke opened his eyes and was immediately stunned.
As the imposing body of Beiming Island slowly sank into the water, its well-defined muscles, like steel ingots forged through countless hammer blows, exuded explosive power and strength.
"Mr. Beiming Island?"
Ryosuke was somewhat surprised, not expecting to encounter this great monk here.
"Namo Amitabha……"
Himejima Gyomei clasped his hands together and said, "Mr. Ryosuke, it seems that we are both destined to be here."
Ryosuke looked at his perfectly sculpted muscles, which were the pinnacle of human potential, and then compared them to his own lean but noticeably thinner physique...
Ryosuke admits he's jealous!
Deeply jealous!
Just like Uzui Tengen, there's really no comparison when it comes to physical talent!
What? Sound Breathing, Rock Breathing? These two are just incredibly powerful!
Ryosuke sighed inwardly.
His Thunderous Sword Technique is incredibly powerful, but his mana bar is definitely a weakness, not to mention using his ultimate skill like a basic attack.
There are no shortcuts or ways to improve your physical fitness system; you have to rely on hard work and self-training.
With this in mind, Ryosuke humbly sought advice.
"Mr. Beimingyu, your physique is truly amazing. I wonder if you could offer some guidance? Do you have any secret methods for tempering the body?"
Upon hearing this, Himejima slightly turned towards Ryosuke's direction.
"There are no magical secrets to improving the body; it's just a matter of 'repetitive movements'."
"Repetitive actions?"
It seems that this statement appears in the original work.
It was probably suggested by Genya Shinazugawa, the boy with the rooster-like hair, when he was instructing Tanjiro after becoming an apprentice of Himejima.
Beiming Island continued to explain.
"It's simple in theory: just keep repeating the basic movements in the most standard posture until they become instinctive and you break through the shackles of the body."
"In addition, swinging a knife against the current under a waterfall, pushing rocks, and climbing cliffs with bare hands... are all ways to hone one's skills."
Ryosuke's lips twitched as he listened.
Dude, are you even human?
Although it was mentioned in the training arc of the original work, Ryosuke still had some difficulty breaking down.
The training that Beimingyu described was simply self-torture!
Despite his complaints, Ryosuke still silently took note of them.
"Thank you for your guidance, Mr. Beimingyu."
"Namo Amitabha Buddha... May Mr. Ryosuke's wish be fulfilled soon."
On Beiming Island, people chanted Buddhist prayers in a low voice.
The next day, Ryosuke began his self-training.
He started with the basics and gradually increased the intensity to awaken his body.
Afterward, Ryosuke went through the inhuman training methods of Himejima in his mind and began to implement them step by step.
There are no shortcuts, only taking one step at a time and repeating the same actions repeatedly.
The intense physical training constantly tore at the muscles, and sweat quickly soaked through the team uniform.
Ryosuke gritted his teeth and persevered, going to hot springs to recharge whenever he was exhausted.
Gradually, the body begins to adapt to this excessive intensity, and strength increases imperceptibly, making the physique more lean and resilient.
During his spare time, Ryosuke found out the location of Yoriichi's Zero Style.
In the back mountain, the six-armed puppet stands quietly.
Ryosuke, holding a training wooden sword, triggered the mechanism.
Yoriichi Zero's six arms moved in an instant!
Six wooden swords transformed into an impenetrable net of death, carrying a fierce attack that simulated the Sun Breathing, sweeping towards Ryosuke from all sides!
He was incredibly fast! And his angles were extremely tricky!
Ryosuke's pupils contracted, and he instinctively activated Thunder Breathing, his figure flashing away.
The sound of the wooden sword tearing through the air was incessant.
After the initial adjustment period, Ryosuke gradually stabilized his position.
He was already incredibly fast, and now that his physique has improved, he has become even more agile.
Amidst Yoriichi's Zero-Type's relentless and tempestuous attacks, Ryosuke, like a winding bolt of lightning, always manages to find an opportunity to counterattack amidst the dense onslaught.
Ryosuke also took this opportunity to hone his Thousand Streams and Binding Chains techniques, constantly combining them with other sword skills.
The days passed by in fulfilling training.
Two weeks later, just after Ryosuke finished his intense sparring with Yoriichi Zero, the village chief and Haganezuka walked over.
"Naraka, this is your sword."
Tetsuji Kawara Tetsujin handed over the sword, while Steel Mound turned his head away and snorted coldly.
Ryosuke eagerly accepted it.
The long sword was drawn, its sound deep and resonant.
The blade remains as white as jade, but its luster is more restrained and profound. The blade is incomparably sharp, and the handle has been re-wrapped to fit the hand better.
Ryosuke gripped the hilt of the sword and swung it gently, producing a crisp and sharp sound that cut through the air, far surpassing anything he had done before.
"What a fine sword!" Ryosuke exclaimed sincerely.
"Ryosuke Yasui!!!"
Hotaru Steel Mound approached instantly, the Fire Man mask almost touching Ryosuke's face, steam billowing out.
"This knife is the culmination of my hard work! It's better than before! More perfect!"
"You just wait! If you dare to damage it even the slightest bit again, I will absolutely, positively smash your head in with a forging hammer!"
Ryosuke looked at the steel mound that was on the verge of going berserk and solemnly promised.
"Understood! Thank you so much, Mr. Steel Tsukasa! I will cherish it as much as I cherish my own life!"
Having received the promise, Steel Tomb snorted and turned to leave.
With the knife in hand, the training has temporarily come to an end.
Ryosuke didn't linger and left the sword-forging village after bidding farewell to the village chief.
Returning to Taoshan, the familiar atmosphere made him feel relaxed and comfortable.
Ryosuke showed the new sword to Jigoro, and the old man stroked the blade and nodded repeatedly.
"Good! Good! Although Ying has a bad temper, his cooking skills are undeniable!"
"It really is."
Ryosuke smiled helplessly.
In the days that followed, Ryosuke resumed his daily routine of training and slaying demons in Momoyama.
With a new knife in hand, one is like a tiger with wings.
Uzui Tengen's Sound Breathing technique has also been completely perfected.
This is also thanks to Shota's tireless sparring with his partner time and time again.
He couldn't beat Uzui Tengen at the beginning, and now he's even less likely to win.
When Ryosuke returned after slaying the demon, Shota was lying on the veranda like a dead dog.
Uzui Tengen was clearly still eager for more and couldn't wait to find Ryosuke for a match.
"Ryosuke! Come on! Let me show you my magnificent, complete version of Sound Breathing!"
Ryosuke agreed, intending to give our glamorous brother a little shock with his new skill!
Chapter 61 You're Sherlock Holmes!
Sonic booms echoed across the training ground, accompanied by a flurry of lightning.
Yu Sui Tian Yuan wielded his twin blades, launching an incredibly swift and fierce attack.
