I like the premise of the story, in which we have we have Baki now basically in the shoes of his father and so facing the same problems Yujiro had : having none as strong as him, he struggles to find any motivations, anything that challenge him and give him the fighting adrenalin rush he's seeking.

 

Now this chapter 4 makes me wonder as the organisation behind the fights is now trying to clone a warrior of the past, if the direction of the story will see Baki finding challenges in opponents cloned from past warriors, because there's none in the present that can actually fight him as equal (out of Yujiro of course that is still beyond anyone in my opinion even if he decided to "retire" at the end of Son of Ogre)

 

Maybe it was the whole Pickle story that gave them the idea as when Baki faced him to find out if he was as strong as the "top" of the past in preparation for his fight against Yujiro, he got a very hard fight that concluded with Baki unconscious.

 

But is just providing fighters the real goal ?

Or are they trying to create a warrior that they can completely control and would be able to contain the likes of Yujiro and Baki ?

It would make sense as every world leaders have lived in fear of the moves Yujiro could do if they were angering him, and they knew that trying to kill him  would only result into a disastrous failure for them and could doom their country.

 

It's possible then that Musashi is just a prototype of their method, but i wonder if they will go to the extend of cloning the actual ancestors of Baki and Yujiro ( Yuichiro, the father of Yujiro, or the ancient ancestors we saw from that antique sculpted wall).

At last, the samurai is reborn.
Itagaki sure is hyping him up. Everyone is yawning.

If Its a matter of the predecessor is always more powerful than the child does that mean that Miyamoto musashi is more powerful than the ogre even though he used swords?. Because from earlier reference we know that baki's grandad was more powerful than his farther.

We do not know how strong Yujiro's father actually was. He used only one technique. Plus, he only fought against some US army scrubs, not actually strong oponents.
