Chapter 7: Sode no Shirayuki
Forging cursed tools at the age of six, just thinking about it sounded impossible.
Ding-dang, ding-dang...
Satoshi let out a light breath and brought the hammer down with a steady strike. The immense physical strength granted by his Heavenly Restriction made forging effortless, even at his young age.
"Your strength is good! But your rhythm is off," Takuya observed from the side. Though his tone was critical, he was secretly impressed.
"Satoshi, you need to pick up the pace here!"
"Satoshi, control your strength better!"
"Satoshi, don't rush forging, patience is key!"
Takuya continued correcting Satoshi's technique, yet the more he watched, the more surprised he became.
"What's going on? How is he improving so fast?"
Completely focused, Satoshi absorbed every bit of Takuya's advice, making adjustments as he worked. Without even realizing it, his proficiency had reached the threshold required to activate his Zanpakutō Forging Function.
[Prerequisites met. Zanpakutō (Cursed Tool) Forging Function Activated.]
