Meanwhile, three unfamiliar scrolls appeared before her.
Hawk-Eye Swordsmanship Compendium.
Thunder Breathing Manual.
Hatake Swordsmanship Essentials.
Retsu Unohana's fingers paused in midair.
She did not reach for them immediately.
As the former Kenpachi, she remained sufficiently wary of any items that appeared out of nowhere.
Yet the auras emanating from all three scrolls were related to Kendo.
One of the scrolls, merely by resting near the table, caused the Spiritual Pressure within her to tremble faintly.
"Swordsmanship manuals from another world?"
Retsu Unohana picked up the first scroll.
The instant it opened, a vast amount of swordsmanship knowledge flooded into her mind.
The use of strength.

The third, Hatake Swordsmanship Essentials, recorded a great deal of practical swordsmanship.
There were no flashy moves.
Nor were there any superfluous actions.
Every strike attacked the enemy's weakest point along the shortest possible path.
Retsu Unohana flipped through the pages faster and faster.

"Strength, speed, technique, and will can also compensate for one another."
She swiftly recalled Kenpachi Zaraki's fighting style.
He possessed immense Spiritual Pressure, yet had always relied on instinct to fight and kill.
If he were allowed
