"I guess that leaves us, Kuni-san." Sanzo says, turning to the Crab.
"It seems so," he replies, before bowing and readying himself for the match.

The grim smile grew and just barely Ichiro would catch a glimmer of teeth in them. "It's nice to see someone who understands the way that I live my life without having to explain it. When I look at your stature and power, I see something to strive towards, just as I am sure you have your own goals." He nodded. "I am looking forward to seeing you show us this at work tomorrow."
Ichiro merely nodded in response to the boys words. His expression a little unreadable but his gave the other boy a shallow bow before heading to the Hida sensei.

He bows deeply to the large crab "My apologies sensei for my words, I let my frustrations get to me. You simply have a different style than I am used to in teaching."

The big crab nods and gives a polite, shallow bow.

The Phoenix mirrors a bow to the Crab, and proceeds to have a very enlightening jiujitsu sparring session.

Kenji would hate to interrupt this fight now, Kenji looked briefly into Aiichiro's eyes with a promising look that said "Shall we continue?

"Are you still asking?" He said between breathes. Holding his position was hard, yet allowed him to slowly moving Kenji to the center again, and maybe further.

"Glad to hear," he says, misstepping. It would be easier to push him throughout the ring's border.

He didn't take the opportunity, apparently, but tried to push you in other direction, giving a chance for recovery.

Aiichiro's Push was enough to throw the crane out of the Ring. Laughing he stands up again "Good fight, Aiichiro-san!"

He bowed like you did after sparring. "I would ask to go again, but you must have been training here for more time than me."

"Perhaps. But be aware that I am not in my best shape now, and that tomorrow I will be stronger." He said confidently.

The match is not so much different from the one he had with the Kakita, with both wrestlers being so new and not particularly naturally gifted for it. Yotsuo does what he can, resisting and trying to move his opponent to his advantage.

Saburo nodded to the Moto and bowed in thanks to the Hida for his lesson. He didn't depart, simply quietly watching as the others sparred for the time being. If any came to him as a partner, he was up for the added lessons, probably to the point where his own bones would ache. He wan't planning to quit until he was where he wanted to be. Which... was probably never going to happen.

He looked around, eager to train, unwisely so as he was just patched less than one hour ago. Aiichiro looks around the place, trying to find someone not occupied. Ichiro was here... He was pretty strong and knew too what he was doing, apparently. And there was the sickly boy watching everyone. Aiichiro approached and bowed.
"Did you also train, Asako-san?"

"Hai." He returned the bow to the Kaiu. "I have sparred opposite Moto Ichiro and Asako Sanzo today and been taking in Hida-sensei's instruction on the practical realities of unarmed combat." Which was to say he got to see Ichiro get sucker punched a moment or two ago, but this was the far more polite way of putting it.

"I am finding the refresher helpful in preparation of tomorrow's lessons."

"I see. Want to go against me?" He asked, processing the words of Saburo. "So... Did Hida-sensei hit someone or something?" He threw away the possibility of the man being hit. Hidas were pretty strong, and this one was large and bulky like the others. And discipline was often made so throughout violence in the dojos he knew of the Crab. But they were not on the Crab.

"He struck one of the students as part of the lessons, yes. It was educational." He settled himself across from the Kaiu in the pit, his hands moving into position and legs braced to accept the charge once he'd bowed to his opponent. He'd let Ichiro tell the tale if he wanted to speak about the strike specifically.
