Day 10: Flowing
No slash intended, interpret as you wish
What am I supposed to do with this? Ah well, let's start...
Flowing... Flowing... Flone! Ok no sorry that was bad, writer's block is catching up to me again...
Sanji had once been told that true swordsmasters could make the deadliest of strikes flow like a river- strong, powerful and yet so graceful. But he had never truly believed it until he had stumbled across Zoro performing his katas while he was on watch. First the ittoryu, then nittoryu and finally his own santoryu sword forms. Each one, if performed fast and accurately enough, would be more than a match for many of the marines in Paradise. But as it was, Zoro could cut anything or cut nothing, such was the degree of control he had on each strike. It was... breathtaking. Knowing that the marimo could do something as beautiful as that, while still being able to kill and while still being a boneheaded idiot was something Sanji did not take lightly. He harrumphed quietly and went back to watching the sea.
Zoro had been entranced by Sanji's fighting style since the second time he'd seen it in action. A style that focused solely on the legs, the hands only being used for occasional stability when kicking. As a swordsman, he had first seen it as impractical, but that had been before he was on the end of it. After that, he had to admit it was impressive. The amount of power produced in those kicks could kick a massive hole into a 3 ft deep wall- not that anyone had built one of them, but still- while still being manoeuvrable enough to make it seem as if he was flowing around attacks. The amount of training he must have gone through to make that work... the fact he had longer than usual legs helped, of course. Hang on, why was he even contemplating this? Sure the love-cook's fighting skills were amazing, but why was he focusing on them? Oh well. It didn't matter. He settled down in the crow's nest, ready to sleep.
Ittoryu- one sword style
Nittoryu- two sword style
Santoryu- three sword style
These may be spelt incorrectly and as such I apologise for any inconvenience caused.
Hey folks! 10:30 is too late to be typing these things up, but here I am! Hope this wasn't too bad, if you are in any way adverse to ZoSan, please note the disclaimer-y thing up at the top.
I would say something about reviews never being necessary, but I'm too tired so I'l go to sleep instead.
