Notable Attacks/Techniques:
- Uho-hou: method to seal misdirection occuring in all things. In other words, to turn off blind spots by changing directions. Adapting to spirit and concepts, its usage is very huge and can influence any territory, from a degree of feelings conversion to high dimensional spiritual defense. This way, Shiori is passively protected with invisible barrier. It's very robust because it constantly crushes weak points. However, it's no better than piece of paper before Taikyoku of Tenma.
- Ishigami Shinto-Ryu: swordsmanship of Soujiro. School of which main ideology is "to start and end battle with one slash". Thus, maximizing lethality of sword is its basic. Killing intent, murderous will, spirit of steel that severs everything is the root of it. Slipping instantaneously in the blind spot and casting techniques outside of opponent's visual perception is something favored by them. Soujiro's killing intent is such he can obstruct his physical attacks in its curtain, act similiar to hiding icicle in a giant waterfall, rendering any attempts to predict his moves impotent.
-
Kubitobashi no Kaze: favourite technique of Soujiro, due to its nature it can even be called his pronoun. It has two forms. First one is simply used for beheading, even multiple opponents at once. Second form, Sabae, was orginally used to reduce target's spirit by pounding it with bloodlust. However, because of Soujiro's immense killing intent it sublimates into the realm of physical killing, enabling him to release long-range slashes. Moreover, since this slash is Soujiro's will, he doesn't even have to think about hitting his target as it's auto-tracking. Its power rises in proportion to Soujiro's killing intent, but against stronger opponents he needs to keeps it in reservoir.
-
As a Gudou God, abandoning concept of attacking through sword, Soujiro simply releases his fighting spirit to produce infallible cutting phenomenon that divides universe itself. Power that is impossible to avoid and defend against.
-
-
Shinatobe no Kaze: technique to turn murderous intent into blade. While it doesn't cause any spectacular phenomenon, it doesn't have any wasteful movements. Subtle flash released at close range distance without beat of the sword. Since slash occurs at the time when Soujiro harbors this thought in his mind, physical action of the sword's slash is just a result of this velocity transcending laws of physics. Because forecasting is impossible so is avoidance.
-
As a Gudou God, he longer requires reason or common sense to wield his sword. Thus, he doesn't need to beat his sword hundred times to generate hundred slashes, but shake it only once to give rise to hundred of million. Attack that's absolutely inveitable, thus even Shiori couldn't find possibility of avoiding it and could endure it only through her natural defense as a Gudou God.
-
-
Hayachi―Mikoto no Ibuki: secret technique of Ishigami Shinto-Ryu. It takes full advantage of perception induction and body-management (tai sabaki) to attack sorely from blind spots. Target can't even perceive movement of the sword and falls into illusion of being eaten by invisible beast.
-
As a Gudou God, it turns into unification of the caster, sword and world itself. Maintaining spirit in the body and assimilating surroundings to turn self into world enables his sword to reach everywhere. Speed, body movement, order of battle, finesse; it's something transcending all these mundane concepts, no longer even registering as a sword technique, burst of ultimate judgement penetrating all elements that exist between himself and his opponent, here and there, filling universe with countless blades as if replacing space with swords.
-
- Distortion: foreign factor mixing with human world and distorting existing common sense, changing humans into beings out of ordinary doctrine. Their power rises in proportion to degree of pollution. Distorted humans of high-degree emanate perpetual feeling of dread and fear, with such intensity that scenery itself distorts.
-
Soujiro's Distortion (unnamed): because Soujiro doesn't know nature of his Distortion, he can't use it in the way other distorted humans do and can only extert its influence unconsciously. While it's unknown what it does exactly, no one have ever survived encounter with Soujiro. In the heat of combat wielding his japanese sword, practicing with wooden sword or even as a child playing with a toy's sword. Regardless of what he was wielding or who did he meet, everyone fell victim to his blade. Not only from lacerations, but from mysterious illness or accidents, dozens of years in the future or few days before they even meet him. Cutting something that isn't even real, like vision of future. It's not simply a physical attack, but more like high dimensional concept in terms of cutting. Because of its diverse essence, Soujiro couldn't grasp its true nature and he finally managed to do that after becoming God...
- Kikei Mandala: blessing of Tumor. While he himself isn't God, since he's connected to Hajun it bestows upon Karmic Stars enormous amount of power. Habaki (Tumor's Sensory) acts as an antennae of Tumor/Hajun power which is then propagated by Rindou (Tumor's Apoptosis) to the Stars of Kikei Mandala. Result of this is an unlimited increase in power, ultimately sublimating to the area of Gods, but at the cost of life and sanity.
- Futsunushi―Futsunomitama no Ken: Soujiro's Taikyoku, Gudou type, law that emerged from craving "I want to be a blade". Desire to fulfill his goal as the strongest swordsman in the universe. But knowing that he will eventually run out of things to cut, deeming his sword useless, he found someone to cut and love for eternity, "sheath" that would receive gleam of his blade. Its ability is severance of all creation, ultimate form of swordsmanship embodying concept of disconnection itself. No longer requiring sword to exercise his authority; Soujiro is a sword itself, as such same phenomenon would occur if he was wielding wooden staff, chopsticks or even fighting with his bare hands. Regardless of physical matter and abstract wonders, everything which intersects with him is cut indiscriminately: line of sight, spiritual communication, vigour, space, dimensions, spirit, lifespan, fate, laws, infinite possibilities, nothingness, visions of future, luck, souls - everything there is, is cut without exception. Even if it seems his Taikyoku was surpassed, one still can't escape from cutting rule. At first, flesh is cut regardless of its hardness, after that this law goes deeper and deeper, to sever essence of everything. Concept of "missing" is blown away, concept "swinging" no longer exists, so everything is torn apart, nothing can escape. Logic that one slash is produced with one swing no longer applies; Soujiro can pile up as much slashes as he wants. Countermeasure is pointless; his law never fades away, never goes off, it's just an infallible phenomenon that always cuts something. Furthermore, by cutting concept of distance his sword has infinite range. Cutting regardless of past, present and future, regardless of space and position of his enemy. At this point, Soujiro definitely became the strongest swordsman in the universe.
-
Unchanging Truth: while Soujiro can't change the fact that "something was cut" he can change "what was cut". As the fact his sword slashed "something" remains, he can always activate it remotely and kill anyone who received his sword in the past, without even moving one finger. He can even actualize all slashes he has dealt as a human. By picking all these slashes up, he can knit the most powerful attack, one that would surely cut the Throne.
