Chapter 14: Restraining Kenichi
Kenichi has joined the Ryozanpaku Dojo for almost a week now and he has been learning Jujutsu from Akisame Koetsuji, Chinese Kenpo from Kensei Ma, Karate from Shio Sakaki, Muay Thai from Apachai Hopachai and Weapons from Shigure Kosaka.
Kenichi called Akisame, Kensei Ma and Sakaki as sensei but didn't called Apachai and Shigure as sensei because Apachai-san was like a kid so calling him sensei didn't felt right though he sometimes did called him sensei to satisfy Apachai.
But he never called shigure as sensei saying that she was his girlfriend so he will never call him sensei which obviously made her unhappy but since she was simple minded Kenichi was easily able to make her happy.
Today Akisame was going to tell a method which will help Kenichi in controlling his strength.
"So what is it that I will have to do to control my strength Akisame-sensie" Kenichi looked at Akisame and asked.
Akisame looked at Kenichi, smiled and said "Nothing much you just have to wear this hand made restraints of mine" Akisame then took out the restraints that he had made.
It was fully made of iron, it had springs which could cover his arms and upper body it also had a different section at the back where more weight can be added to the restraints. In short his whole upper body will be in restraints because of it .
(A.N — If some of you are thinking how it looks like then let me tell you it has almost the same shape and design which Ikki Takeda wears when his master James Shiba asked him to wear)
Kenichi looked at the restraints then looked at Akisame then again looked at the restraints and again looked at Akisame he did it until Akisame brought him back from the stupor as he said "From now on you will wear these restraints all the time wether it's eating, sleeping, training or anything else you will wear these restraints all the time"
Kenichi took the restraints from Akisame's hand but when he held the restraints he was once again shocked "You are kidding right! you already made hand made restraints but now even the wait is around 40 kg it was already hard to move my hands because of this and now I won't be able to walk properly" Kenichi after knowing the wait about the restraints asked.
Akisame said "No I am not joking, this will not only help you to get better control over yourself but it will also increase your strength exponentially"
"But doesn't that mean I will have to wear it while training with Apachai-san, you do know that it's impossible for him to hold back and with me wearing this I will definitely die by his hands" Kenichi replied to Akisame.
Akisame after hearing Kenichi's problem answered back "If that's the only problem you have then Apachai won't be training you for the next few weeks so that you can get used to the body restraints"
Kenichi and Akisame grumbled with each other for few minutes but in the end Kenichi lost and had to wear the restraints. The moment he wore the restraints he felt like he was carrying a boulder on his body as he wasn't able to move his hands above his waist he looked at Akisame who was smiling while his right hand was on his Moustache playing with it.
Kenichi shook his head when he looked at his sensei he then slowly (and I mean really slowly ) walked slowly out of the dojo room.
Kensei Ma who looked at Kenichi was smiling as he saw him walking as a tortoise. Kensei Ma went towards Kenichi and said "Since you are wearing so much restraints I can teach you the fundamentals of Attacking and defending"
Kenichi looked at Ma Kensei and said "Teach me"
Kensei Ma smiled then said "You can't escape by stepping back. You will attack at the places where the opponents can't retaliate. Listen carefully this techniques in Chinese is called Ugyuu Haito and Black Dragon Moving Head in English"
Kenichi looked at Kensei Ma and asked "What is the steps to perform this technique Ma-sensei"
Kensei Ma said "A technique found within Chinese Kenpo where, once kicked, the user grabs the enemy's leg with both hands, smothers it in their chest and stomach, and crushes it, which also leads to a headbutt"
While telling this much to Kenichi, Kensei Ma performed this technique in the air to let Kenichi see it once after which he asked him to perform.
Kenichi who was already felt like shit, wasn't able to perform the technique even though he knew he could perform it well his body wasn't following his orders.
Kensei Ma knew what was the reason hence he didn't interrupted Kenichi and left him alone to practice the technique on his own and Kenichi who was now all alone continued to practice on Ugyuu Haito a.k.a Black Dragon Moving Head.
After 2 hours of continuous practice he was able to perform the technique finally after which he lost his strength and laid flat on the ground. "Huff huff I really huff am going to die huff someday because of these teachers of mine" Kenichi after laying on the ground said it due to exhaustion.
Sakaki, Akisame, Apachai and Kensei Ma who were standing together looked at Kenichi and Sakaki said to Kensei Ma "Did you tell him that he had to perform this technique today only"
To which Kensei replied "No he must have assumed it on his own, even I wouldn't have been able to do what he did at his age"
All four of them smiled when they thought of the future achievement of there disciple while Shigure and Miu who weren't standing much farther from them blushed thinking of the future achievement of their to be husband and were also were impressed by his determination.
Unknowingly Kenichi had made his impression improve in the hearts of Shigure and Miu.
Like this Kenichi kept practicing with his restraints under his sensei's and it has been 9 days since he started wearing the restraints and he has somehow got used to it. That is to say he is able to perform normal task like eating, sleeping, washing, training etc without much problem.
Even his sensei's were shocked that how was he able to adapt with the restraints within such short days.
Though the real reason is that Kenichi was continuously using ki to improve his body when he is completely exhausted. He got to know about it when he first tried to use the ki to alleviate his pain and exhaustion that he got on the first day wearing these restraints....
