Chimper #3270
One flawless frost katana, two hundred recorded victories, and one ridiculously faded training cap. Students who spar on the frigid shores of the great lake see only the first two. They watch Kanouyouko move, a blur of impossible grace, and whisper that their control rivals even the great Oda. They are the apex predator of the training grounds, a transcendent warrior whose focus is absolute. They are also the one who, after a perfect demonstration, will trip on their own feet walking away. The cap is from their first tournament, a humiliating defeat where they were so focused on looking impressive they forgot to fight. Their opponent, a chimp who has since retired to run a noodle stand, won by simply waiting for them to tire themself out. Kanouyouko keeps the cap to remember that the most dangerous enemy is often one’s own ego.
