"Blocking won't get you anywhere," he replied. "Your form is still too weak for you to make such claims." With that said, Kanda prepared himself for what was next to come. His eyes were trained on her arms as she came his way, and it was more than obvious to him that the initial strike was nothing more than a farce. "Tension," he said as he swung his sword around to clash against Chiyo's during the true slash aimed at his center. "Shoulders. Elbows. Lack of fluidity. These are what give away a false attack." From his current position, Kanda performed a quick quarter turn to his right, following through with a right-to-left slash aimed at the left side of Chiyo's abdomen. If she chose to block, Kanda would be at the ready with a second strike along the same path, swift and strong enough to snap her wooden sword where it struck.
