Capítulo 15: A Peculiar Encounter
I couldn't help but revel in my satisfaction as I left the blacksmith's shop, a new glaive in hand. Weapons had never been my preferred choice in battles, as I relished the feeling of crushing bone and smashing flesh with my bare hands.
The raw, visceral sensation of overwhelming opponents with brute force had always been more satisfying to me. Besides, wielding weapons often made fights too dull, as most opponents simply couldn't handle my strength.
In my previous world, I had even faced off against Musashi Miyamoto, the legendary swordsman, using nothing but my bare hands. Musashi was renowned for his unparalleled skill in swordsmanship, having created the Niten Ichi-ryu school and achieving great fame on the battlefield.
Even at the tender age of 17, he fought as a one-man army, emerging from battles mostly unscathed. As he matured, his mastery over the visual swords became boundless.
Musashi's prowess with a blade was legendary. With his superhuman strength, he could cut through the flesh of formidable foes like Pickle and slice through Motobe's aramid fiber chain-mail with ease.
Even when unarmed, Musashi possessed the ability to simulate a sword strike so accurately that those struck by it felt the phantom blade cutting through them, the sensation lingering in their minds for minutes afterward.
They are able to cut through 8 bodies and perfectly split a revolver in 2 along with the officer holding it, demonstrating no decrease in potency.
I had faced Musashi in battle, and not only had I held my own, but I had even gripped his sword when he swung it. To say it was a momentous clash would be an understatement.
"Musashi, what a great warrior. What will happen if he's also come to this world?
Heh, he's sure as hell can upgrade his swordsmanship and reach unprecedent level! Sigh, now I need some smoke."
As I continued my stroll through the village, my thoughts dwelled on my encounter with Musashi. Yet, despite the satisfaction I derived from such victories, I couldn't help but feel that this world was filled with more challenges and excitement than I had ever encountered before.
My glaive, newly acquired from the blacksmith, would be a worthy companion on my journey. With each step I took, I relished the prospect of further battles and tests of strength, for it was in the crucible of combat that I truly thrived.
"There must be some foes that had unique technique which can rival me. I can't wait!"

Strolling through the village, I couldn't help but notice a quaint tobacco shop nestled amidst the bustling streets. An idea crossed my mind, and curiosity piqued, I decided to explore its offerings.
Inside the shop, I was greeted by an assortment of pipes and a wide variety of herbs used for smoking. My discerning eyes scanned the selection, searching for the perfect pipe to suit my preferences.
After a brief exploration, I sought out the shop's owner. And there, standing before me, was a striking woman—tall and slender, with alabaster skin and raven-black hair that cascaded down her back in numerous layers.
Her hair was styled creatively, with front bangs that grazed her eyebrows, followed by layers reaching her jaw, hips, and knees. Her eyes were a captivating shade of turquoise.
She was adorned in a revealing and expensive kimono, an ensemble that exuded an air of elegance. Her choice of accessories complemented her appearance perfectly, and she wore her hair in an intricate fashion, adding colorful pins to complete her look.
I decided to engage her in conversation, intrigued by both her shop and her captivating presence. "My name's Hanma Yujiro, are you the owner of this shop?" I inquired.
With a sly glint in her eyes, she replied, "I am Yuko Ichihara, and indeed, this is my humble shop."
My interest piqued, I picked a particularly bulky pipe and I decided to test the waters. "Is there anything here that might catch my fancy?"
Yuko Ichihara couldn't help but giggle, clearly catching the underlying meaning behind my words. With a sly smile, she suggested I explore some of the more exotic offerings tucked away at the back of her shop.
As a man well-versed in the ways of the world, I understood the implied invitation. I followed her deeper into the shop, amused by her alluring beauty and intrigued by the unconventional moments that lay ahead.
As we ventured further into the depths of her shop, a sense of mystique seemed to envelop us. The air was filled with the aroma of the various herbs, creating an ambiance that was both intriguing and intoxicating.
I couldn't help but admire the way the dim lighting played on Yuko Ichihara's features, accentuating her allure even further. Her steps were graceful and deliberate, leading me to the hidden treasures of her establishment.
"So, Hanma Yujiro," she began, her voice a sultry whisper, "you strike me as a man of distinct tastes. Tell me, is there anything here that catch your attention?"
I chuckled, appreciating her directness. "I'm a traveler, always on the lookout for unique experiences and rare herbs."
Yuko's laughter was like a melodious chime, filling the air around us. "Ah, unique and rare, you say? I must admit, I don't usually cater to those with particular desires and discerning palates but I'll make and exception for you."
As she spoke, she gestured to the array of exotic herbs and blends adorning the shelves. Each one seemed to promise an adventure of its own.
I decided to take a more direct approach. "Ichihara Yuko, it seems you have a variety of herbs. But don't you think it'll be lonely for me to smoke this alone? Care to accompany me tonight?"
Her eyes sparkled mischievously. "Ah, you're not just a traveler, are you? You're a seeker of the extraordinary, a connoisseur of the unknown."
I nodded, acknowledging her. "That sounded right. Life is too short for the mundane. Don't you think so, Yuko?"
She stopped before a particularly ornate cabinet, her fingers tracing the intricate patterns etched into its surface. "In that case, Yujiro, allow me to introduce you to a world beyond what most can fathom."
With a deft motion, she opened the cabinet to reveal an assortment of items, each more enigmatic than the last. Potions, artifacts, and curiosities of every kind were displayed before me, a showmanship that proceed her beauty and as an enigmatic purveyor of the arcane.
I couldn't help but grin. This encounter so far seems to be far more intriguing than I had initially anticipated.

The night spent with Yuko Ichihara was nothing short of exhilarating, filled with moments that left a lingering heat in the air. As morning broke, her invitation for more was met with a confident and indulgent nod from me.
We spent hours in passionate pursuit, exploring desires that knew no bounds. Finally, as the sun climbed higher in the sky, we decided to take a break and sate our hunger.
Yuko Ichihara led me to a grand feast, a veritable banquet of culinary delights. The dishes were prepared by her male student, Kimihiro Watanuki, and the flavors were exquisite.
We dined like royalty, indulging in a sumptuous meal that left no craving unfulfilled. I displayed my etiquette, a refined side that rivaled the nobility, proving that beneath my warrior's exterior lay a man of multifaceted talents.
Amidst the feasting, we engaged in conversation, our words flowing like a dance.
As our feast drew to a close, I felt the weight of impending departure settle upon me. I turned to Yuko Ichihara and spoke, "I will continue my journey to the Land of Whirlpool today. I am eager to explore the mysteries of the Uzumaki Clan."
With a warm smile, she embraced me, and for a fleeting moment, time seemed to stand still. Her feelings born of the night's passion and shared desires, would remain etched in her memories.
As I strode towards the village gate, the imposing figures of Madara and Hashirama greeted me with grins that held an unspoken meanings. It was as if they could read my thoughts, understanding the weight of the revelation I had dropped during the meeting, they don't hold any grudges.
Madara, his dark eyes gleaming with the spark of ambition, was the first to speak.
"Yujiro, you've certainly given us much to ponder. Your words may have shaken the foundations of our peace, but they have also illuminated the challenges that lie ahead."
I met Madara's gaze with my grin, my voice spoken with unwavering resolve.
"War is an eternal shadow that looms over the world, Madara. It is the nature of humanity. But with strength, we can shape the course of history to our liking."
Hashirama, the idealistic dreamer, chimed in with his characteristic optimism.
"I still believe that through understanding and compassion, we can strive for lasting peace. We must create a world where the value of life outweighs the desire for conflict."
I couldn't help but chuckle at Hashirama's unyielding hope, even in the face of my stark realism.
"Hashirama, your heart is in the right place. But remember, strength is the key to preserving any semblance of peace we achieve.
Never forget that, spend time with your clans, you too Madara. Don't forget our bet to see whose clan is better, hahaha!"
Madara nodded in agreement, his expression soften.
"We may have our differences, but one thing is clear — we will need to fortify our villages and ensure they produce generations of shinobi capable of defending our way of life."
With a final nod of acknowledgment, we parted ways, each of us harboring our own visions for the future. I stepped beyond the village gates, my stride unwavering and filled with purpose.
The unknown path ahead beckoned, and I embraced it with amused smirk.
