- Kenpachi also drops other useful items like Soul Essence, Eyepatch, and the Captain Cape, but your main focus is the Kendo Scroll.
2. Use the Kendo Scroll at the Crystal Cave

- Once you’ve obtained the Kendo Scroll, take it to the Crystal Cave location.
- There, speak to Musashi, the Kendo Master NPC, to unlock the Kendo fighting style. You will now have access to all the Kendo sword abilities and can start using them in combat.
