Now, as we've discussed before - mastering the way of the sword takes very intact, unique, smart, innovative set of skills.

The last we'll do it the skill of a keen eye. Used mostly in ways of archery but rather ideal here as well. Remember that your eyes do the thinking and your arms do the work. So, you do this your eyes need to be trained to view things in ways they're not use too. Through the gate you'll see a spinning sword - in mid air just spinning - it's moving at great speeds. On the tip of the sword is a kanji - find out what it is. How will you figure it out? You'll have to figure it out.

"That's going to be difficult...wait, not it's going to curse me isn't it? I guess there's only one way to find out. I'll be back later."
I walk through the gate like I have done before, walks through the hall I find myself in a small room with the sword in the middle of it like my sensei said, it was spinning very fast and if I got too close I would probably hurt myself. I walk close enough towards the sword so that it doesn't chop me, but is very close to; I begin to focus my sight onto the tip of the blade to try and read the kanji that is on it, but the sword is too fast. After staring at the spinning blade for a while now I manage to only get a glimpse of the kanji, though at least I know it's there now, "It would be so much easier if I was an uchiha..." Suddenly I get an idea, I draw my sword with my right hand and my left hand goes to grip it from underneath, I step back with my left foot and my right foot is kept forward, I then sidestep to get in the way of the spinning sword and my and it's blades clash. I use all my strength to keep the sword still, though it was hard, this was not like fighting a human, I could feel the great pressure on my arms. The sword was moaning against my blade, though it was still, I looked towards to tip of the blade and saw the kanji and I smiled at this moment I was launched into the air and hit the side of the room, the sword spun normally and I just fell to the ground with a grunt. Moments later I woke up and walked back through the gate and towards my sensei, my face bloody, my arms achy and my sword rested upon my shoulder, "It said my name..."

Ah but it did. Good work.

It's hard for us to train our eyes and yes we can view objects with the naked eye but viewing detail of that sorts is near impossible unless we're like those punks the Uchicha. So, this last gate was a trick to see hwo'd you react. You did a good job. Very impressed.

Suddenly your sensei holds out his hand and the sword from the gateway appears in his hand with your name written along it.

This is your new sword. Finely made. You're going to use it on your final test. Grip your sword, feel the power. Let me know when you're ready to begin.

I look down at the sword and grip the hilt, the power floods through me, it was a great new confidence that fueled me to go on,
"I'm ready..."
