Tetsu was standing on the pitchers mound at an empty baseball field. A bucket of baseballs were in a bucket next to him. This was a small training excersize he would practice every few days. Since his Spirit Bomb was the size of a baseball, and he couldn't go around throwing those all the time, he decided to practice by pitching baseballs. He had a few targets set up with a crude drawing of a hollow mask on each one. There were five in total, and a few baseballs lay past them.
Tetsu leaned down and grabbed another baseball. He held it out in front of him, his palm facing the sky. "Gotta concentrate. If I'm gunna catch the fast ones with my attack, then I've got to get faster and more accurate," said Tetsu. He took a deep breath then looked at the targets. He suddenly disappeared, using Basuto, and reappeared a few feet to the left, throwing the ball as soon as he appeared. He missed the middle target by a few feet. "Damnit," said Tetsu.
He walked over to the bucket and reached over for another baseball. He kept practicing, throwing the balls from different areas. The more he used his Basuto, the more tired he got, and the more his spiritual energy leaked out. It wouldn't necessarily attract hollows, but it usually attracted the people in the black robes with swords. Shinigami if he remembered what the girl once called them. Spirits with blades that help protect people and spirits, slaying the beasts known as hollows. Tetsu smiled as he suddenly nailed the target on the far left dead between the eyes.
