~suddenly you feel a sharp pain in your hand and let go of the katana.~Umm....Why would I hurt my hand? Did they pierce the ground or are the blades pointing upwards? You're not really being clear on this...=/
*I move to the left a bit and examine each katana. I then carefully prick one out of the ground and wield it...without hurting my hand.*
Yeowch! *waves hand in pain and then groans slightly*~suddenly you feel a sharp pain in your hand and let go of the katana.~
Well, then what would you think about that? This is a defense mechanism that does not allow enemies use your katanas.
~You see needles coming from the hilt. They begin to slide back into the hilt.~
See there is only one way to hold the katana with 1 hand and with both. There is highly sensitive areas around the hilt that press multiple switches. These switches will allow the user to hold the katana without making the needles come out. If the person doesn't hold the katana correctly he or she will get poked in the hand. The way of holding a katana is very important in this style making all swords that you bring your weapon and no one else. What would be the point of the swords if your opponent can use them too.
~Shows you his katana~ See no needles. ~points in every part where is fingers are touching and palm is.~ Once you master this it won't be too hard to continue the training. I want you to first pick up a katana without activating the defense mechanism, swing it by doing basic sword exercises without losing your grip, and then we will continue the training.
~sits down~ Tell me when you at least pick one up.
~looks up after waking from his nap~ Oh you can hold it? Well that seems good. Now I want you to wield 2 katanas at the same time and show me some attack exercises with them. This time though. ~Plucks out a katana~ I'll be blocking them. You'll be fighting people with weapons too and the clashing force between both weapons can move your grip.Yeowch! *waves hand in pain and then groans slightly*
Okies....*Going back to the same katana, I carefully place my fingers where yours are, one at a time, carefully and slowly without flinching. I then place my palm where yours is on the hilt and don't feel any needles coming out.*
I then move away from you and swing the katana smoothly horizontally a couple of times, and then vertically afterwards without losing my grip. I then come where you are and show you the katana I'm holding in my hand without any needles poking it.
Psh... Your aren't too dangerous... You may have taught me from the beginning, but we are at the same level of swordsmanship. Perhaps I could dare to say I am surpassing you?You know I'm used to only holding one blade darn it...but oh well I can weild my sword in either hand easily.
*I go to another katana and following the same places I put my fingers and my palm on the hilt for my right hand katana, I do the same for my left hand and pick it up without getting pricked.*
And you've just made me a lot more dangerous.
*After picking up the second katana, keeping my grip on them both throughout, I start spinning on one foot controllably in a counterclockwise motion, coming straight at you with one blade held about neck-high and the other at about waist-low position, and once I get short range to you, you start getting small cuts and gashes into your skin around said areas, and they only get deeper and worse as I get closer.*
Meh. Same ol' Musa.Psh... Your aren't too dangerous... You may have taught me from the beginning, but we are at the same level of swordsmanship. Perhaps I could dare to say I am surpassing you?
~I yawn while you come towards me as you come closer I use the one sword as a projectile throwing it at a vertical spin and I follow it right behind. As the sword I threw gets in range I pick up another sword from the ground and suddenly grab the sword in the air slashing at both locations of your spinning attack making them clash and knock you off balance. As you slow down and lose your footing I throw the sword in my left hand into the ground next to me.~
Well then it seems you didn't lose your grip. that is what I was hoping for. Put down the swords. It seems like you understand how to work with these katanas. Remember to always have your set of swords with you. You can have it in a scroll or just carry it with you. Your personal choice. Now then lets move onto the next lesson. Bandage up your hand beforehand from the needles that poked you before.
Heh. And like you've said in our various chases on msn, I'm a very tricky biatch.Psh... Like that would be it. I'm no one trick pony. Either way lets continue.
Now watch... ~I create a clone of myself and kick him towards a tree making him fall and as he begins to get up I throw 3 swords in front of his body. I then rush at him slicing all 3 katanas in such a fashion they spin and slice upwards making the clone get cut. Then as he staggers away I clash my sword into the 3 individual swords making them attack the clone in his foot to keep him in place, his stomach, and his heart. After dealing the 3 blows he dispatches as the swords fall on the ground.~
This is called...
Type: Attack
Rank: S
Range: Short
Chakra: 45
Damage: 90 total (30 for every sword.)
Description: The user throws 3 swords in front of the opponent with the blades piercing the ground and sharp side towards the target. The user then quickly gets in front of the opponent and surprises the opponent by hitting all the swords at the bottom to make them fling upwards and slice him vertically. Then while the opponent is hurt the user will strike every individual sword at the staggering opponent flinging them for multiple strikes. The opponent can be pinned down or the swords can be aimed for vital points. This attack is best suited when the user and opponent is in close range.
Note: Only musasibou can teach this.
Note: Can only use three times per battle.
Note: This technique can be done after the Kendo: Infinite One-Sword Style is set up.
This technique is used at 1:32.

To get a better understanding about it you can check out the video. I said the time where the technique starts.
Seems like you got it down quite nicely. Though it is a tricky way of attacking a person you need to make sure your there before they can get their bearings back. If they have a chance to counterattack, you may lose your life. Anyways onto the next technique. ~Starts drinking water and sitting down.~ I want you to show me how fast you can run.Heh. And like you've said in our various chases on msn, I'm a very tricky biatch.
Alright. *poof*
Instantaneously when my clone appears, I kick her in the gut, sending her flying towards a wall, and then once she slowly gets up, I throw 3 swords at her, which pierce the ground before her, suprising her momentarily, nearly in the blink of an eye, she sees me before her, slicing all 3 swords in a way that they spin and slice upwards making the clone get cut in 3 places simultaneously. Then as she uncontrollably backflips away I clash my sword into the 3 individual swords making them attack the clone in his foot to keep her in place, her gut, and her main blood vessel, her heart. After dealing the 3 blows she poofs away as the swords fall on the ground. I then pick them up and wait for further instruction.
Pretty fast. I must say though this next technique takes speed, reaction time, and concentration. If you mess up the swords won't do what you want them to do.Okay.
I start running by pushing one foot quickly against the ground and run at a very fast paced dash/run for several minutes without slowing down a bit. Noticing that you haven't told me to stop yet, I keep pace and keep running around the training area until you tell me otherwise.
Hooah! *I stop running and stand before you with my breath caught after a few seconds.*Pretty fast. I must say though this next technique takes speed, reaction time, and concentration. If you mess up the swords won't do what you want them to do.
We'll be performing the sword technique...
Type: Attack
Rank: Forbidden
Range: Short
Chakra: 50
Damage: 90
Description: This technique utilizes the numerous swords involved in the use of the Infinite One-Sword Style and both the user's skill and speed as a ninja. The user attacks the opponent a total of eleven times in rapid succession, each at different angles and positions. With each strike the sword is left behind attached to the opponent. He then lands the final blow, making a total of twelve devastating blows. This technique pins and hurts the opponent. The reason why the swords can be powerful and stay on the opponent is because the blunt of the blade is used. The attack itself relies upon the high speeds of the individual attacks and the momentary stun inflicted by the previous blows, allowing the user to grab one of the surrounding swords and continue with the technique. This attack when used and if added with multiplication will put a great strain on the user making him or her dizzy and very exhausted. This is a finishing combo and is to knock out the opponent.
Note: Only musasibou can teach this.
Note: Can only use twice per battle.
Note: The user cannot use this technique again for 3 turns.
Note: The user can only perform two attacks this turn, this is included to that tally.
Note: User can only use 2 moves next turn.
Note: User can not use genjutsu or taijutsu for 1 turn.
Note: This can be blocked to minimize damage. (-10)
The technique is from 3:20 to 3:40.

This attack is very complicated. Once you master this technique I'll begin the training for the second form of this. Like all sword wielders know the sword can be used to kill, or to punish. What I mean is that when you have a katana you can use the dull side as much as the sharp one. In this case we are using the dull side to punish our opponents by stunning them with strong blows. When done correctly and with great timing and speed the user can use the same technique with a different katana to continue this process. Though you cannot keep this up forever. The max amount of times to do this is 11 times and then you strike 1 last time to hurt your opponent.
Now then I'll so you what I mean. ~I pluck a sword out from the ground and create a clone. The clone stands in a defensive stance with his sword. I then focus on my clone with my sword gripped and ready. I the suddenly rush at the clone and slash at him with a powerful clash of my sword. Though it was fast the blade was turned from sharp side to dull and making my opponent stuck in place for a split second I grab another sword and slam him in the back. I then continue this process of adding swords to his body with all the dull sides into his body. The stunned state he is in makes him unable to move and then I deal the finishing blow which is a sharp side slash through the waist making all the swords deal the damage needed. The clone then drops to his knees and before his body falls flat he is dispatched.~
Now then. This will take some time. Practice making the sword stick on a dummy first. If you can put the precise pressure on the slash the sword should somehow stick to the dummy allowing you ample time to grab another to perform this. Now I want you to get at least 3 swords stuck in no less than 2 hours.
~spits~ There is a reason why I told you to practice what I instructed. Your blows are weak, the swords are barely in place. You need to practice more than that. I want you to practice the 3 sword version 50 times before we continue.Hooah! *I stop running and stand before you with my breath caught after a few seconds.*
After watching you do the technique, I note the movements you make in my mind. I then thoroughly go through the motions in my head, and understand them well. I then face the dummy with a glare. Using the three swords I had picked up in the prior technique, I place two of them around the dummy. I then start with the first sword gripped and ready in my right hand, and I then suddenly rush at the dummy, slash at him with a powerful clash of the sword. Although it was quite fast, I had previously turned the blade from the sharp side to its dull side, making it stuck in place momentarily. In less than a second, I grab one of the two swords I placed by the dummy, slamming him in the back altogether. I then do the same for the third sword, and quickly afterwards deal the finishing blow, a sharp side slash through its waist, dealing the damage from the other three swords altogether simultaneously. The dummy falls to the ground now in pieces of firewood.
I then continue practicing the technique, getting faster and faster and able to place more swords into the dummy in less time each time I practice it. In a lil bit less than an hour, I get to the full 11 swords placed into the dummy and then notify you. I then create a clone, and do the full 11 sword addition technique in less than 2 minutes.
I then nod in respect and wait for instruction.
Good... Now I want you to try and do this on a clone of mine. This time with 6 swords.Yes sir.
Understanding my punishment due to me not following taicho's directions, I face a new dummy with a glare. Using three swords of the swords I had used in the rushed attempt, I place two of them around the dummy again. I then start with the first sword gripped and ready in my right hand, and I then suddenly rush at the dummy, slash at him with a powerful clash of the sword. Although it was quite fast, I had previously turned the blade from the sharp side to its dull side, making it stuck in place momentarily. In less than a second, I grab one of the two swords I placed by the dummy, slamming him in the back altogether. I then do the same for the third sword, and quickly afterwards deal the finishing blow, a sharp side slash through its waist, dealing the damage from the other three swords altogether simultaneously. The dummy falls to the ground now in pieces of firewood.
I then do this fifty times like Musa ordered, and each time I do it, I analyze my mistakes and by the fiftieth time I did it, I have completely mastered the three sword style of the technique in about a half hour. I then return to taicho and give him a deep bow as a sign of my deepest apologies.
