Perhaps I wi// train my body a/ong with my mind today… A bit of sword practice wou/d be we// worth my time.
While I'm aware that this likely comes across as the 'wrong' way to do things for someone who takes their time to master a single weapon, I prefer to keep a steady rotation of different weapons. To stick to just one means that in a pinch, or if caught off guard, I might not be able to react in time. Training with multiple types allows me to be ready for nearly anything. ... In terms of everyday convenience, a knife can't be beat, however. They are not so good on a battlefield or in a fight against someone more heavily armed, but all things have their place.
Tch… Undiscip/ined. I see. Spoken /ike a true fo//ower of the dishonorab/e shinobi tenets…
No. I do not know you. I am outc/assed, in any case, against a highb/ood /ike yourse/f.
If I catch you without a sword, you're already at my mercy. If you catch me without a weapon, surprise! I have another. Or perhaps whatever is available. A chair. A bottle. Whatever is here, I can use. Can you? I think when it comes to the reality of combat, I am the one who will be safest. Call it undisciplined if you wish. A Jack of all trades may be a master of none, but they are better than a master of one. I wish you luck in broadening your horizons, but I know you will simply sharpen your keen edge until the sword becomes weak.
If I am ever unprepared, then it wi// simp/y be my day to die with honor.
It's cute that you think I would kill you. But do try not to be caught unprepared elsewhere. If you die, I'll be sure to disrupt your funeral, too.
Tch. And what exact/y is that supposed to make me fee/?
I can't decide that. I'm not so arrogant as to claim to be able to choose what you feel about things. You can think of it as... Mm. Me saying that I don't wish to see you die. So do not be caught unprepared, Ronin. If you will only rely on your sword, then make sure never to drop it. That's all.
Tch. I wi// not be caught unawares. Do not underestimate me, disruptor. I wi// not die.
Mm. Good luck. Don't get too overconfident either.
