"Rustling~" The leaves flickered, and Kiyosuke quickly returned to the bottom of the mountain not far from the hotel, and when he went, he deliberately took a long detour to practice, and when he came back, it was much faster.

At this time, it was twelve o'clock in the middle of the night, a crescent moon hung high in the sky, and the bright moonlight shone on the way back to the hotel.

"Welcome."

The front desk at the door of the hotel bowed, and Kiyosuke waved his hand and walked towards the men's soup, ready to take another bath, sweating from the training just now.

"Whew~" With a deep breath, Kiyosuke turned around and changed his posture, leaning face up against the boulder by the pool, the male bath is open-air, and you can also see the stars in the sky here, as well as the bright crescent moon.

"There's still a month to go, and I don't know how many places I'll be able to challenge." Kiyosuke said secretly in his heart.

The promotion of Rachel's footwork has greatly improved his combat ability, and now he will not fight so hard when he faces the rain girl in the afternoon.

Able to hide his momentum, he is now more like a silent assassin.

"It's just that I don't know how big the gap between me and that Takehara Ryuichi is now."

Kiyosuke's eyes narrowed slightly, although he hadn't fought yet, this genius man, who was known as the most terrifying genius in Hokkaido, still put a lot of pressure on him, after all, this was a real genius of the same age.

Twenty minutes later.

Seisuke changed into a new yukata from the hotel and stepped out of the male bath to the elevator.

"Drip." "Click."

Opening the door, Kiyosuke returned to his room to begin today's meditation.

He hadn't slept for a long time, and his daily sleep time was replaced by meditation, which not only refreshed his spirit, but also accelerated the speed of his practice, killing two birds with one stone.

"Ding."

"Huh?" Kiyosuke opened his eyes suspiciously, and when he picked up the terminal, he found that it was a message from Mr. Miyata.

"I knew you kid definitely wasn't going on a trip, the title of Tokyo Baby Dragon is good, I like it very much."

"The boss has spoken, let you kill the sharp spirit of Hokkaido, it's best to come back directly to the first place on the list."

Kiyosuke's face froze, although he knew that the news would come back sooner or later, but he didn't expect it to spread so quickly, even Mr. Miyata knew his current nickname.

"Mr. Miyata, you are too confident in me, the man in first place is a monster at all." Kiyosuke couldn't help but complain.

Even if he breaks through to the top, he may not be sure that he can defeat that man, let alone be stuck in front of the door now.

"Monsters? Aren't you the biggest monster? Miyata said curiously.

Whether in Tokyo or now Hokkaido, Kiyosuke is considered a demon that has been rare for hundreds of years, and he even has fans in Hokkaido, and many people believe that his potential is even greater than that of Ryuichi Takehara.

The 15-year-old C-level is already a very outrageous thing, and what is even more outrageous is that he still hit the top ten on the list with his strength.

Kiyosuke was silent for a moment, not knowing how to refute Mr. Miyata's words.

"Anyway, the boss said, even if you don't have the first place, at least you have to win the top three, otherwise you don't have to go back to Tokyo." Mr. Miyata gloated.

Kiyosuke smiled bitterly, it must have been Mr. Takigawa's joke that he didn't have to go back to Tokyo, but this was originally his goal, even if he couldn't beat Ryuichi Takehara, he would at least win one of the top three seats.

"I'll do my best, how's Tokyo doing?" Kiyosuke asked rhetorically.

"You don't have to worry about Tokyo, the boss has already found new players to replenish, and the manpower is completely sufficient."

"Your mission is to kill the sharp spirit of Hokkaido, and in the past few years, some of them have begun to call themselves the holy land of kendo." Miyata said indignantly.

"Leave it to me."

Kiyosuke smiled slightly, put down the terminal in his hand, he is not untargeted, as long as it is not against Ryuichi Uetakehara, he has a certain certainty of winning.

There was no word all night, and the time soon came the next morning.

After the hotel was changed from Sapporo to Noboribetsu, the hot spring hotel became the stop for the three of them in the next few days, and the station where Kiyosuke and the others were going today was Lake Toya.

Lake Toya is a freshwater lake in southwestern Hokkaido, Japan, near Uchipo Bay, which is part of Shikotsu-Toya National Park and is also known as a caldera lake.

After a bus ride for more than an hour, the trio came to the location of Lake Toya.

As Japan's northernmost ice-free lake, Lake Toya is blessed with beautiful water all year round, and the surface of the lake does not freeze in winter.

There are also two powerhouses on the rankings near Lake Toya, but they are all ranked after the fifteenth place, and they are not on Kiyosuke's challenge list, so he just accompanied the two of them on a sightseeing trip today.

In the past few days, the tired body also needs to relax for a while, and the challenge is not in a hurry, after all, the Sword Valley will only open in September, and there is still a full month to go.

There is a small island in the center of Lake Toya---- Nakashima. Locals say it is called Nakajima because it is right in the middle of the lake, and this small island is the first stop on the trip.

After arriving at the hot spring town, Kiyosuke bought a ticket for the sightseeing boat and took the two of them on a 50-minute sightseeing boat around the island.

"Kiyosuke, look, there are a lot of seagulls following behind the boat." Nagai curiously pointed to the dozen or so seagulls behind the ship, a little curious as to why they were flying with the boat.

"I think it's because the ship is running past and there is a lot of turbulence, so it's easy for the seagulls to fly after it." Kiyosuke explained.

Nagai excitedly took out his camera to record the moment.

"Stand still, I'll take a picture of you."

Seisuke and Senpai glanced at each other, smiled at each other, and then tacitly stood side by side in the stern of the boat, and behind them were flying seagulls and mountains surrounded by clouds and mist.

As the ship progressed, Nakajima approached, and Nakajima was actually the collective name of the four islands of "Bentenjima", "Kannon Island", "Oshima" and "Mantou Island".

These four islands are all uninhabited islands, only one large island can be disembarked and disembarked, and there is a small mountain forest museum on the island, where the three Seisuke also disembarked and prepared to walk around the island.

After going ashore, although there is a dense jungle, tourists are not allowed to climb the mountain due to the protection of the mountain forest, and Kiyosuke is not reluctant, just pacing slowly beside the two of them to enjoy the scenery.

"Something doesn't seem right with this island."

Kiyosuke's eyes narrowed slightly, in fact, he felt a strange aura from the time the sightseeing boat approached the island.

But he didn't perceive the danger, and Nagai wanted to come down to take pictures, so Kiyosuke agreed to disembark and go ashore.

Nagai walked around for a while, and the photos were almost taken, and the three of them returned to the boat, ready to move on to the next spot.

When he got on the boat, Kiyosuke took a deep look at the jungle on the island, and although nothing happened, he always felt that something was not quite right here.
