Ama Kakeru Ryuu
no Hirameki
Part Two of the Hiten Mitsurugi Ryuu's Succession Technique;
a Battou Jutsu stances that leads with the left leg.
Only those who have the will to live can learn this
technique. The attacker will attack as normal, and the
user will use the Ama Kakeru Ryuu no Hirameki to defend
and counterattack. To acquire it, the inheritor must
defend from his master's Kuzu Ryu Sen. The technique
is so powerful that usually, masters of the Hiten Mitsurugi
Ryuu die when teaching their students.
