The Hidden Waterfall Caves, Hitoshirenu Bakufu Douketsu, is located to the south, not far away from Yamamoto's Training Grounds. This area is relatively quiet and deserted.
Not many people have yet discovered this place, thus making it the perfect place to hone on your skills. Most recently Tsai has built a small house around the area and filled it up with furniture so he is close to his training grounds.

The Construction
Tsai wandered around on foot hoping to find something to do. "What's that?" he asked himself as he spotted a large waterfall. "Might as well refill my canteen," he said to himself as he took off the strap holding onto his canteen on water and dipped it into the water to refill. "This place is sure beautiful," he muttered to himself as he stared at the waterfall. He decided to go closer to it as the bubbling from his canteen under the water stopped signalling that it was full.
Tsai walked over and climbed up, so close to the waterfall that he could feel its spraying water at him. He then noticed a rather small hole behind the waterfall. He looked into it. It seemed to lead somewhere. It was small but was big enough for someone to crawl into it. "Might as well," he thought, he had nothing better to do. He got on the floor and crawled inside. It was tight, but he managed to get in.
It was dark inside as expected by Tsai it was also rather spacious. He got up and tried to see what was here with the only light avaliable, the sunlight coming from the hole. "Can't see anything.." he whispered to himself. He crawled out of the cave and ran to go get a large stick, then he ran back and crawled through again.
Inside, he lit the stick. It seemed this cave was much bigger than Tsai imagined. It was almost as big as the dojo at the academy. Tsai had an idea, what if he made this place a training area. But he needed material. He crawled out of the small hole again. "There are trees here, I can make some dummies," he said smiling as he drew his zampakuto. "Time to get to work".

He looked around, there were a bunch of large trees around the area. He needed a couple of trees to make some nice dummies. He surveyed the trees in the area. "I guess I'll take this one," he said as he slashed at the tree horizontally with both hands since this was a pretty big tree he was going to try to bring down. It would probably provide enough wood for 6-10 dummies for training.

There was a thud and a vibration from the sword. Tsai looked at the mark he caused to the tree. It looked as if he had only scratched it. This tree was indeed thick. It would take some time to bring the whole tree down. He struggled to remove his zampakuto from the tree, but finally he got it loose and retrieved it. He wiped the sweat from his head and prepared for another slash at the tree. It was going to be a long day. He gathered his strength and grasped his zampakuto tightly and threw another swing at the tree with all his might. ------------------------ Grand Cherry Tree HP: 350 -14 = 336 ------------------------

Another thud was made, the vibration did not happen this time however. Tsai looked at the mark he made. It was at least an inch in the tree now. He grasped his zampakuto and wiggled it around, trying to loosen it from the tree. He finally removed it. He took out his canteen and drank some water and then held his blade to his side, readying for another slash at the thick tree. He swung his blade against the large tree again with full force. ------------------------- Grand Cherry Tree HP: 336 - 16 = 320 -------------------------

It was getting rather easier to cut through the tree now that the cut was getting larger. Tsai removed his zampakuto more easily from the tree. He took a sip from his canteen and put it back on the floor. He prepared for another slash at the tree. "This is getting rather repetitive and tiring" he muttered to himself as he swung the blade at the cut he already made. The cut was now about 2 inched into the tree but the tree was rather large. ----------------------------------- Grand Cherry Tree HP: 320 - 9 = 311 -----------------------------------

The cut was getting larger and larger. It was now 2 inches into the tree. It would have to be at least 10 inches before a wedge should be made to determine where the tree should fall. Tsai looked at the cut, the wood was indeed fine and would make excellent dummies. Tsai got ready to slash at the tree again, he wiped the sweat from his forehead. The sun wasn't making this job better. He took another swipe at the tree.

It was getting alot bigger than it was at the start. It was also getting easier for Tsai to slash at the tree. It was getting hotter and hotter after every stroke. He took a minute to go and refill he canteen and wash his face before Tsai got back to work. The treet was standing strong still. Tsai picked up his zampakuto from the ground where he left it before he went to refill his canteen and wash his face. He grasped it and got ready to slash at the tree again. He got ready, his blade to his side, he waited, took a breath and slashed at the tree with both hands.

The blade landed awkwardly and did little to improve the cut on the tree. "Sigh," he looked at his blade then at the cut. He sat down and wondered if there was an easier way of bringing this tree down. He continued to ponder but could figure nothing out. He got up and grasped his zampakuto again and slashed at cut at the trunk of the tree with full force. ----------------------------------- Grand Cherry Tree HP: 292 - 3 = 289 -----------------------------------

This time, he completely missed the tree. It seemed Tsai was getting tired and bored of cutting the tree. It was really thick for a tree. But Tsai was determined to make his training dummies from fine wood. He swung at the trunk again. "Your going down whether you like it or not," he smiled and said to the tree as he swung his blade at it. ----------------------------------- Grand Cherry Tree HP: 289 - 2 = 287 -----------------------------------

The tree creaked a bit. It seemed all this hacking and slashing was paying off, the tree was starting to sway meaning, all this work on it would soon pay off. Tsai smiled and hacked at the tree again. "Come on, fall already" he said impatiently. ----------------------------------- Grand Cherry Tree HP:287 - 8 = 279 -----------------------------------

He removed his zampakuto from the tree and took another sip from his canteen. He then tossed his canteen into a corner and began making another cut. By doing this, Tsai will make a wedge in the tree. This wedge will determine the direction the tree will fall. He aimed his zampakuto where he wanted the cut then swung hard. ----------------------------------- Grand Cherry Tree HP: 279 - 2 = 277 -----------------------------------
