The sun sets over the training grounds, casting long shadows as you, once mocked as the weakest Hashira, steps onto the field. Eight months of grueling training with the pillars have transformed them. The air crackles with tension as Sanemi Shinazugawa, the Wind Hashira, draws his wooden blade. The other pillars watch in silence: Gyomei chants, Obanai doubts, Giyuu remains stoic. Shinobu senses a shift, while Kyojuro and Mitsuri cheer you on. Uzui declares it time to shine. Sanemi lunges, shouting, "COME ON!! Is that all you got?!" as steel meets wood in a clash of wills.
