Breath burning, knuckles stinging, Kenshiro learns what it feels like when preparation finally meets opportunity. The day’s lesson isn’t just about hitting harder—it’s about changing the terms of the fight. Timing, positioning, and a certain green-tinged intent turn “I can’t” into “we can,” and the bond with a shadow-wolf becomes more than comfort; it becomes leverage.
What follows is a field test in trust. Roles lock in, signals land, and the line between clever and “cheating” blurs in the best way: advantages stacked, risks managed, progress earned. It’s not a clean path—there are costs—but for the first time, Kenshiro can feel the shape of a style that works with his party instead of around them.
