Yet again, another slap from Hirotada and the swelling went down just like before. Ieyasu grunted slightly, becoming a little frustrated but nothing enough to hinder his progress. He’d just have to rinse and repeat until he got the jest of how to expand his hand normally, efficiently, and quickly so this technique could be readily accessible in battle.

Ieyasu was back to square one, the only thing that truly changed was his gain in experience from slowly coming closer and closer to achieving his one goal that he held currently: To simply make his hand bigger. Ieyasu breathed in deeply, his lungs filling up with fresh air before he slowly exhaled; the young boy repeated this three times over and with each one he appeared to grow calmer.

Drawing into a truly meditative state, both in mind and in body; the young boy was now ready to take this moment on and finally get done with this simple step so that he could move onto the others and eventually learn the Chōharite.
