One day,

Kaito heard whispers of a legendary sensei who dwelled in the heart of the forest, renowned for his mastery of Zen and martial arts.

Determined to seek enlightenment, Kaido embarked on a journey through the dense woods, guided only by the whispering winds in the rustling leaves.

After days of travel, Kaido finally reached a serene clearing where a small wooden hut stood nestled.

beside a tranquil lake,

sitting outside the hut was an old man with a weathered face and eyes that seemed to hold the wisdom of centuries.
