Kisame laughed. "Yours, but you have to learn how first. What kind of training regimen do you have right now?"

After a moment he reached down to give her a hand up, relaxed as he ever was. "You're right though, having someone who's had training in combat will help you--or hurt you. It all depends on the kind of combat they've learned, and how it meshes with your own style. And how good they are at teaching, eh? At your level, learning from the beginning would be pointless. You'd need someone who can adapt what they know to what you know."

Kisame wasn't going to offer himself--it never crossed his mind. He had never considered himself as even potentially able to teach anyone, not until very recently. He wasn't even aware that the way he'd adjusted during the spar was potentially good for teaching. His only thought had been to make it more fun and challenging, and a one-hit KO or similarly short spar wasn't, in his opinion.
