"Sumi i worry about you, and i cant have you hurting yourself over a few techniques." "Taijutsu will come soon, i promise... but i think the more important matter is the bloodline that seems to eat you up inside, how about we focus on this for a while. that way you'll be in prime condition if you still want to learn" Tezuka taking a lighthearted tone again, grinned deviously "And afterwards we'll build that body up until your on my level, hell.. you might pass me in the process"
