Kamado Tanjiro Vs Muzan Kibutsuji

Chapter 50 { Recovery Training 2 }

(Tanjiro's POV)

'So we ended the day soaking wet once again, Zenitsu' said Inosuke with a depressed tone.

Zenitsu replies, 'I should change my name to Monitsu already...' They were very depressed because they can't win Kanao in the tag game and the relfex training.

I try my best to cheer them up, 'Come on guys, don't give up! You guys can do it! Let me tell you two the secret to win Kanao!'

Zenitsu and Inosuke widen their eyes and focus their attention toward me, 'Really Tanjiro! What is the secret! Tell us, hurry!'

'You guys can do full focus breathing for short period of time right?' I said.

Zenitsu nodded and answer, 'Yeah, why do you asked?'

I smile and continue saying, 'Well try to do full focus breathing for a whole day without stopping. You will see the results when you do that.'

He just widens his eyes in shocked, 'Is that even possible?! It's very tough to maintain full focus breathing even just for a short time... To do it all day... I will die!'

Inosuke just says, 'Really Monjiro! I will try it now.' He immediately enter full focus breathing and hold for a while. About one minute or so, he collapses onto the floor while panting very hard.

I quickly run to his side and warn him, 'Don't do the full focus breathing for a long time immediately, Inosuke! You have to train your lungs capacity first! Come Zenitsu, Inosuke, lets go to the garden to train now. I will be your guidance when you have trouble in the training, come.' They quickly follow me to the garden and sit down in a row.

I stand in front of them and start explaining the training to maintain full focus breathing for a whole day, 'To train your lungs capacity, you have to do meditation every day and control your breathing speed and pattern. Then run around the garden until sunset everyday until you reach your limits. The last training is building your whole body strength. You can see there are two large boulder tied to a sturdy tree branch. Try to pull the ropes that are tied to the branch as hard as you can. Do that exercise until your whole body is ache. When you finish all these exercises after two weeks come and seek me for the final exercise. Now go! You guys can do it!'

Zenitsu raises his hand and asks, 'Tanjiro, is this a little too much?'

I smile and reply, 'Come on Zenitsu, is not so hard. If you don't do these training, you cannot do full focus breathing for a long time. When you do full breathing for a long time without training, your lungs and ears will hurt. And you will feel that your heart is coming out from your ear. You will feel like you are dying. Do you want to experience that?'

He quickly shakes his head and started to train with Inosuke. I smile at the my two hard-working friends and went inside the estate. Time to refine my swordsmanship. I enter the training room again and found a wooden bokken. I grab it and get into a sword stance. I cycle through my sword techniques trying to refine them to a higher level. Suddenly someone enter the training room.

I turn toward the person and greet her, 'Hello Kanao! What are you doing here? Are you going to train?' She jolted up a bit when she heard my voice. She thought no one is in the training room.

I walk toward her and ask, 'Do you want to have a spar with me, Kanao? It gonna be fun.' She quickly take out a coin and flips it into the air. She catches the coin and it landed on head.

She looks up toward me and says, 'Yes... Tanjiro. I would love to.' with a calm tone.

I reply, 'Sweet! Here's the wooden bokken. We will start after a few minutes.' while tossing the bokken toward her.
