I teach kendo in Tokyo

"If you don't mind, please let me practice sword practice with you, master craftsman."

Suddenly a sassy voice came from behind. Kazuma looked back and saw Honami in professional attire walking in from the door of the dojo.

Not far behind Honami was the butler Mr. Suzuki. After meeting Kazuma's eyes, he bowed slightly, then turned and left.

"Honami, are you free today?"

Kazuma looked away and looked at Honami, surprised that she would come here free.

Contrary to some people who follow the crowd, Honami is determined to enter politics. She became a local council member in the last election, so her daily schedule is very full.

In addition to being responsible for local government affairs as a female councillor, she also has to deal with various affairs of the Nanjo family, and her support for Kazuma and the dojo has never slackened.

She was able to handle such a large number of affairs at the same time, sometimes even Kazuo Ma couldn't help but admire her.

Among the female disciples in the dojo, the most promising one is probably the daughter with the title "Haiyan".

However, while dealing with these complicated matters, Honami may not be able to keep her kendo level stable.

After all, kendo training requires tempering the body and mind day after day, and she definitely doesn't have that kind of free time. From a dojo master's point of view, Kazuma would certainly not be happy about this situation.

"Okay." Kazuma nodded seriously, "Let me see how much you have regressed."

**

The sound of fierce fighting came from the Kiryu Dojo, which lasted from two o'clock in the afternoon until nearly the time when the sun set.

At first, Kazuma guided Honami in a practical form of attacking and defending each other, but this would cause intense physical exertion, so later it was changed to a form in which Honami attacks and Kazuma defends.

Kazuma guides Honami's movements while defending. When Honami makes a mistake in judgment or uses a clumsy move, Kazuma will knock her away with a heavy blow without mercy.

On the contrary, if Honami's attack rhythm is very good, Kazuma will definitely withstand her attack.

By repeating this, Honami gradually became familiar with her unfamiliar moves, and later on she even landed several impressive combos.

The effect of this kind of instructional special training on improving strength is even more obvious than actual combat, but the premise is that the teacher who implements the instruction must have overwhelming strength.

The previous Kazuma probably wouldn't have been able to provide such precise guidance, but several recent fierce battles have significantly improved his strength. If the butler Suzuki was present, he would definitely be shocked by the extent of Kazuma's strength improvement.

There was a dull sound, and Honami couldn't hold the bamboo sword in her hand, and it was thrown away.

"That's it." Kazuma waved down his bamboo sword and looked up at the rosy sky outside.

"Yes, thank you Kiryu-sensei for your advice..." Honami stood up from the ground and saluted Kazuma with a respectful gesture.

She was dripping with sweat, compared to Kazuma who only had a slight amount of sweat on his forehead.

"How should I put it? We have regressed quite a lot." Kazuma glanced at Honami and gave an unceremonious comment, "At the beginning, I felt completely messed up, and the coordination of my hands and feet became rusty. Later, I regained some feeling. , but it is still far from the level of the kendo competition.”

"Yes..." Honami was a little frustrated, but what Kazuma said was a matter of course.

"What's surprising is that my basic physical strength has not declined. You have been able to practice with me until now, and it seems that you have not been lazy in your usual physical training." It is common sense for instructors to slap him and give him candy, but Kazuma didn't lie.

Honami was able to continue sparring with him for two or three hours, which proved that she kept up her physical training.

"Well, after all, the election is about physical strength, so I tried my best to maintain basic training... Well, although I knew that my kendo strength would decline, I didn't expect that the gap would be so big." Honami smiled bitterly, while While adjusting his breathing, he cast a respectful look at Kazuma.

"Kuma, you have been following my pace from the beginning to the end, right? I feel like I can't even fight back if we fight seriously. Well, it's only natural, though."

"Of course, how can a teacher teach if he is weaker than his disciples?"

Kazuma stuck out his tongue in his mind, not intending to mention the envy he felt when the god of mourning awakened from the intermittent rain a while ago.

"Then, what do you want from me?"

"Can you tell?" Honami was a little surprised.

"Idiot, fencing is a way for swordsmen to communicate with each other. Any mental activity of the sword holder will be reflected in the movement response. Especially for a swordsman who has achieved the integration of mind and skill, any emotional fluctuations of his opponent cannot be hidden from his eyes. You should feel it too, right?" Kazuma put on the air of a master.

"Yes, the disciple has been taught." Honami nodded with admiration, and then paused as if to organize her thoughts, "That's it, Kazuma, are you on vacation at home for the time being? If you don't have anything planned next week, I hope you can spare your time. Give me."

"Well..." After thinking about it, Kazuma realized that he had nothing to do. "It's okay to give you my time. What do you want to do?"

"Well, the Nanjo family recently invested in a new cruise ship called the 'Tokyo Empress'. It is a large ship that can accommodate more than 2,000 people. After arriving at the Port of Tokyo last month, the Empress conducted a trial voyage to confirm everything. No problem and then it’s ready to go.

"However, grandpa plans to organize a hospitality trip before officially putting it into operation."

Honami said, looking at Kazuma.

"The reception trip will invite guests from all parties related to the Nanjo family to participate in a short trip of five days and four nights. I will be responsible for hosting the entire trip... Well, if possible, I want you to be my male companion, Ma. Attend."

"Wait a minute, you said your family built a cruise ship!?" In Honami's tone, it was as if she had bought a pack of macaroni from the supermarket. Kazuma took a moment to react and stared at it with wide eyes. The daughter of Nanjo before her.

Cruise ship! Cruise ship! And it’s a Century cruise ship that can carry more than 2,000 people!

Before time travel, he could only look at such a super luxurious object and drool from a distance. In this life, he thought it would be great if he could board a ship and experience it, but he never expected that his disciple actually built one directly. come out?

"What? The Nanjo family built a cruise ship?" Even Chiyoko, who was working in the kitchen, was alerted and ran over happily.

"Yes. Since Japan's current prosperity is so good, the Nanjo family also plans to try to develop into diversified fields." Honami nodded.

"Well, that's right..." Damn capitalists! Kazuma took a deep breath to calm down.

The Nanjo family was an emerging chaebol in Japan after the war. Its industry involved all aspects of production and manufacturing. Especially in the 1980s when Japan's economy took off, they should have had the capital to build one or two cruise ships.

Multiplayer management is also a forward-looking consideration, and Hema doesn’t think there’s anything wrong with it.

As for Mr. Nanjo's intention to organize a hospitality trip, he probably also wanted to gain popularity for this emerging family industry and seek a good fortune, right?

Anyway, Honami followed her, and the Nanjo family and the Kiryu Dojo are now considered half a family. Of course, Hema has no reason not to fully support the prosperity of his own industry.

"No problem, I'll be free next week, but is it really okay for me to go?" He Ma confirmed.

Although Honami's relationship with him has been publicly recognized by the Nanjo family, the two currently have no plans to advance to a secular marriage, but this is actually not a big problem.

After all, Honami needs to maintain the image of a single woman in politics, and Kazuma is also a famous swordsman and celebrity who enjoys a high reputation among the people and the government. Japanese society is quite tolerant towards such people, and having a few confidantes is no big deal.

"Of course, it's better to say that no one can do it except Kazuma." Even Honami didn't mind, she smiled in a good mood, and then turned her eyes to Chiyoko, who was looking over there eagerly. , "Chiyoko, do you want to come with me then?"

"Yeah! Can I come?" The hostess of the dojo (for now) couldn't help but be happy when she heard this.

"Of course. In fact, I want to welcome everyone on board... By the way, would you like to call Amao on board too?" Honami suddenly suggested.

"Amao?" Chiyoko was stunned for a moment after hearing this.

Amao is the top disciple of Kiryu Dojo and a student of the Law Department of Tokyo University.

After Amao obtained the exemption, he moved out to make it easier to study, so he was conceptually regarded as having established his own business.

In addition, Dongda University has a heavy workload, so unless the leader Kazuma calls for it, he is unlikely to participate in the organized activities of the dojo.

Honami suddenly mentioned Amao, which surprised Chiyoko.

“On this reception trip, many celebrities who have friendships with the Nanjo family will come to participate.

"Amao is going to be a lawyer in the future, right? To start in this industry, you need a lot of connections. If he is here then, I can help him introduce these political and business celebrities if I have the opportunity.

"I think accumulating some contacts will be helpful to his future."

Honami said with a smile, but also added that there is no need to force it.

"Don't force it! Not force it at all! I'll tell him now... No, I will definitely pull him over! Wait!" Chiyoko's eyes lit up instantly, and then she ran towards the entrance of the corridor. , picked up the phone and dialed it.

Not long after, the passionate and persuasive voice of the hostess (temporary) of the dojo came from the other side of the entrance.

"Alas, my elbow has turned outward before I got married. Isn't it true that he and Amao will beat me together?" Kazuma sighed half-seriously.

"You haven't given up on that idea yet?" Honami glanced over with a slight frown.

"Of course, I will not hand over Chiyoko to someone weaker than me!" Kazuma declared boldly.

"The rocks are like sharp arrows, splitting the running water. The flowing water merges into the sea, and God's will cannot be violated." Honami hummed a Japanese song in a melodious tone, and reminded Kazuma with a half-smile, "Be careful, since ancient times, it has hindered the relationship between love. Most of the guys who are happy with you will be kicked off the cliff by Ma Gong."

"Well, it won't be impossible to let it go depending on the situation at that time..."

But ritual is a must! Kazuma insisted on the bottom line, but he didn't take it too seriously.

After all, his relationship with Honami was due to the eldest lady's rebellion against the family's arranged marriage. Since the relationship between Chiyoko and Amao is currently growing well, there is no need for him to deliberately create difficulties.

"Forget it, it looks like it will be a very lively trip..."

Kazuma shrugged, temporarily putting aside his sister's romance, and focused on his own sister.

Nanjo Chikin was originally an elegant beauty. Her face was flushed after exercising, a few strands of sweat-soaked hair were stuck to her forehead, and her slightly damp clothes outlined her magnificent undulating curves. She looked quite sultry. It stimulated someone to swallow his saliva subconsciously.

"By the way, do you have any other reservations today?"

This question is actually a bit redundant. After all, a lot of things can be seen from the fact that Mr. Suzuki left after saying hello earlier.

"No, the travel planning has finally come to an end. I want to have a good rest today." Honami stretched.

"Then just have a good rest at the dojo tonight. I'll accompany you." Kazuma blinked and put his arms around his sister's waist.

"I'm going to take a shower first." Honami gave someone a white look, noncommittal.
