~Background~
Height: 6'0 Weight:144lbs Hair: Jet Black and Spiky Eyes: Deep Crimson Clothing: (It's obvious) Physical Appearance: Slender Past Divisions: Former Division 6 Captain History:
Biography Before Death: Kazei has lived with his grandparents for the most part of his life because of the strain he had been putting on his parents careers. He had been expelled from more than ten different schools before his grandparents took him in at a young age. At the age of fifteen, by a figure donned in a black kimono wielding a sword. His grandfather was later said to have passed away in a car wreck, however in all actuality he had been murdered by a shinigami. In truth, his grandfather had been possessed by a Hollow whom had completely taken over his body, forcing the shinigami to complete his duty. It was then that Kazei learned what shinigami and hollow truly were. Leaving Kazei wordless with nothing more than the battered corpse of his grandfather sewed seeds of resent for all shinigami and hollow into the boy's heart. It was then and that very moment that he had awakened his powers. In between the nine years that passed since then, not much can be told on what had taken place since then except for the fact that he's now a college sophomore attending Karakura University. However he does run a small street gang by the name of 'The Black Band Babies, a group of vigilantes who takes matters into their own hands when the law fails to take care of it, making them a nuisance to police as well. Each of the members sports a black band in their own style and fashion on their bodies in which symbolizes what they stand for. Their territories or turfs are usually marked with vandalism which lets any outsiders know when they've stepped into B.B.B territory. Anything within the circle of their territory is ran strictly by them. Although they are a small gang, they fight to the end even if it means putting someone in the hospital or worst. Kazei is also a musician and lead guitarist in the band known as the 'Rebelz', who's theme of music revolves around what they stand for and their way of living. He's been a member of this band since it first formed in high school, and it is his aside from running the B.B.B. Although they are only local artists, they are quite popular in Karakura Town and hope to someday become signed onto a bigger record label.
Biography at Soul Reaper Academy: Kazei was a very strange individual. Nothing is known as his life as a human, as he has lost his memories upon becoming a shinigami. While in the adacemy, he realized that the upper bodies of government kept an eye on the students: by being an expert on his spirit particles manipulation, he receded an invitation to the Kido Corps, which he refused. This triggered the attention of the 1st Division Squad captain, which attempted to find how what led to such refusal. In a testing manner, the captain raised his reiatsu to try and subdue Kazei, but to his surprise, Kazei countered with an effortless field, preventing effects from the captain's pressure. The captain, seeing great potential, offered training, which Kazei accepted. Couple days after Kazei joined, officially, the Gotei 13, Kazei was visited by the Captain of the 5th Division, at the time. He had been told by the captain of the 1st division to train him, and as such, he provided Kazei with first rate training sessions. The 5th division captain taught Kazei everything he knew, and Kazei sipped knowledge an power, while still being an active member of the Research and Development Institute. With his intense reiatsu, kido training, and knowledge of the arcane sciences, within 8 months, Kazei was worthy of facing trials to being seated within either of these squad divisions. He was tested, and passed with distinction. He was told to be a...unique Shinigami.
Soul Society/Sixth Division Captain: With an extreme proficiency at tactics and strategy, he excelled through the shinigami ranks and eventually became captain of the sixth division. For years he would lead the gotei 13 into victory with each oncoming battle with expert strategic maneuvering. Some say that at this point it wasn't enough for him. He had come very far in the spirit world since he first entered as a child. Many believe he still wasn't the shinigami he sought to become. After all these years, the rank of captain had become only a title in his eyes. Twelve others had received the same recognition just because of the title and not because of what truly made them a captain. And so the time had come to draw the line between the strong and the weak.
One faithful day the captains of the Seretei were ordered to the world of the living to prevent an attack on Karakura Town. The attack had been on a munch larger scale than they realized. Menos were rampaging from all ends. And so Kazei took this as an opportunity to further his motives. Everything had been planned precisely. The menos were only the distraction. It was revealed that he had many ties to Hueco Mundo and that the entire attack had been a small portion of a munch bigger thing that he had been orchestrating this entire time. Some were killed, some were defeated, but all of them were outsmarte.....including the Central 46. So far as we know, Kazei had become demon amongst the Soul Society. He had ties everywhere. The Seretei, The Living World, and even Hueco Mundo. But more mysteriously, like most legends he disappeared. His actions, motives, and the purpose of everything behind him had faded into darkness as well. Ever since, he hasn't been spotted in neither realms......or so they say.

~Zanpakuto Information ~
Zanpakuto Name: Saiketsu Zanpakuto Type: Katana Zanpakuto Appearance: Shinigami Kazei
Spirit Appearance: Saiketsu Spirit Personality: In the beginning, Saiketsu's personality would be described that of wise, manipulative, and cynical. Spirit Relationship: Kazei and Saiketsu shares a relationship a bit more unique than most shinigami and spirits. She is the only woman he devotes his utmost trust and loyalty into, and because of this their relationship can sometimes seem that deeper than the eye meets. Spirit Inner World: Inner World
Shikai Appearance: Saiketsu Shikai Saiketsu using Shikai Shikai Release Command: Sit upon the Heavenly Throne. Let there be Light Shikai Release Appearance: Once Kazei's shikai is initiated, both dual katana will be encased in crimson light before enlarging into a pair of dual broadswords. Shikai Abilities: Saiketsu's main ability is known as Narune "The Arc Light." The Arc Light's reigns from three set origins who's base form revolves around the three heavenly bodies which is the Phantom Moon, Phantom Sun, and Phantom Stars. By collecting the light from these three heavenly bodies, Saiketsu is able to produce a limitless amount of pure light in which Kazei is able to weave into various energy based attacks consisting of high concentrations of light as well as the ability to regulate their size, shape, and intensity. Shikai Attacks:
1. Jougen Lunetsu (Crescent Cutting Moon) - Also known as the Lunar Divider. By collecting and channeling the light of the moon into his edge of his zanpakuto, Kazei is able to produce a super high densified frequency beam of light from the edge of his blade in the form of an arc or wave resembling a giant crescent moon. When fired off, the edges of this heavenly crescent gleams with intense cutting power, vibration speed, and heat, enabling him to both cut and burn through targets at the same time. At normal power the Jougen Lunetsu resonaes at 40000 vibrations per second. However by regulating his reiryoku into it's intensity, he is able to further increase it's vibration speed. It is a technique that solely focuses on cutting power, as it does gather the cutting light of the phantom moon. The shape of this technique is always crescent in shape, but it's size can reach lengths of twenty feet, however it can vary depending on how much reiryoku Kazei is channeling into it. In order for this technique to successfully work, Kazei's sword must be swung in a diagonal, vertical, or horizontal arcing manner, causing it to be released from the edge of the sword in the form of a crescent. By regulating his reiryoku into the attack's intensity, he is able to able to increase vibration speed of the beam's edges, resulting in a great increase of it's cutting power. Kazei is also able a variation of this technique by semi-changing the direction and shape of these crescent beams by whipping them around in a somewhat water hose like manner causing them to wrap and constrict targets inside of it's incredible cutting power until the target itself is sliced to pieces. He refers to this variation as the Heavenly Flowing Crescent. Kazei is also able to contain the Jougen Lunetsu within his zanputo by engulfing it with it's cutting light, giving it the form of a broad beam saber, greatly augmenting it's cutting power in return.
2. Tekkoudan Stel (Spine Shooting Star) - Also known as the Heavenly Piercing Light Gun. By collecting and channeling the light of the stars into the tip of his zanpakuto, Kazei is able to produce super densified frequency laser of light from the tip of his sword in the form of long ray or shaft resembling an incredibly long spear, similar to that of the trail of light that a fallen star leaves behind. When produced and shot from sword, the tip of the sword twinkles brightly with intense penetration power, vibration speed, and heat, enabling him to pierce through and through targets at the same time. At normal power the laser vibrates at approximately 40000 vibrations per second. By regulating his reiryoku into it's intensity, Kazei is able to increase the vibration speed. It is a technique that solely focuses on penetration power, as it does borrow strength from the piercing light of the stars. Like it's brother techniques, the shape and size of this technique can vary ranging from a small needle sized laser of light to elongated twenty feet long spear and shaft sized lasers of light depending on the amount of reiryoku he is channeling into it. In order for this technique to work Kazei's sword must be thrust forward in a rapier or spearing like manner causing it to shoot out from the tip of the blade in a form of a shaft. He is able to rapidly shoot out these lasers from the tip of his sword similar to that of a semi-automatic machine gun, sending out multitudes of these needle shaped sized lasers simultaneously. It is a variation in which he refers to this as the Heavenly Striking Machine Gun. The smaller they are, the faster he is able to fire them off. Kazei is also able to keep the power of the Tekkoudan Stel within the tip of the sword without releasing it, causing the zanpakuto to resemble a long javelin of light as the light forms around it as well as enabling him to greatly augment it's piercing power.
3.Hazeru Solgen (Sphere Bursting Sun) - Also known as Heavenly Exploding Sun. By collecting and channeling the light from the sun into the belly of his zanpakuto, Kazei is able to produce a super densified frequency charges consisting of compact light from the belly of the sword in the form of a grenade or sphere of light resembling a miniature sized sun due to it's bright radiance. When these charges are produced and launched from the sword, the belly of the sword will radiate with intense explosive power and heat, enabling him to both devastate opponents on impact in a powerful energy burst as as well as delivering severe burns from the explosion. Even if the opponent somehow misses the direct punch of the charge, the speed of the explosion's expansion threaten to swallow them as well. The heat from this technique is probably the hottest due to the amount of compact super high density light released all at once from one charge. The shape and sizes of these charges are usually spherical and grenade sized in shape and size, however they can range to larger forms such as air balloon sized bombs depending on how much reiryoku Kazei is channeling into the technique.
Bankai Appearance: Kazei Bankai Bankai Release Command: Bankai Release Appearance: After muttering the word "Bankai" Kazei will place cross both dual broadswords in front of one another forming an X. In that moment an enormous scarlet halo of bright light will appear in the sky above Kazei's head. From the center of the red halo, river of light will pour out like a waterfall, flooding the battlefield in what seems to be an endless eye blinding whiteness that will stretch for as far as 10 kilometers. Once he mutters his bankai's name "Narune Saiketsu", his zanpakuto will glitter with crimson light and all of the surrounding rivers of light will be sucked into his zanpakuto as well as the surrounding visible light in the environment, the light given off from his body, and the light from the heavenly bodies. The only visible flicker of light there is to see is a crimson halo like rune engraved on the guard of his zanpakuto. In bankai mode, Kazei's appearance is more shadowy than anything. This is because his zanpakuto has sucked in all light around him including the light emanating from his body, retaining it in one single rune on the guard of his zanpakuto. Bankai Ability: The main ability of Saiketsu is forcing the power of Narune into total submission. In return he gains the the total strength from the light of the Phantom Moon, Phantom Sun, and Phantom Stars gathered into one single rune of light located on the guard of his zanpakuto. He refers to this rune as "Narune". This ability is known as Lux Aeterna (Eternal Light). By enabling such a high magnitude of light force into one area, Kazei 's speed is phenomenally enhanced as well as the speed of his attacks. The light from his bankai is so highly condensed that the protons (light particles) emanating from it can literally be felt, making his attacks much more terrifying as the light is now tangible. Bankai Attacks:
1. Rensa Lunetsu (Chain Linking Crescent) - Also known as Lunar Chain Crescent. An enhanced version of the Jougen Lunetsu. Kazei will produce a super high densified frequency chainsaw beam of light in the form of a wave or crescent. The composition of this crescent is much different than it's predecessor in size, shape, and intensity. In fact it is much stronger and faster. The crescent itself is outlined in chains of light consisting of teeth that run along the edges of the beam creating a chainsaw like affect. At normal power these teeth run along the edges of the beam at 30000rps, radiating cutting power to split even energy based attacks such as a cero into particles. By regulating the reiryoku into the intensity of Rensa Lunetsu, Kazei is able to increase the revolution speed of the chain of teeth running along the edges of the beam. By regulating reiryoku into it's shape, he is also able add initial links of chains to Rensa Lunetsu, adding immensely to it's cutting force. By regulating the reiryoku into it's size, Kazei is able to fire off small Lunar Chain Crescents to monstrous thirty foot length crescents, covering a wide area in radius for larger or multiple targets. Kazei is also able to control the direction of these Chain Crescents, causing them to lash around like whips as well as looping them. He refers to these as Chain Flowing Crescents as he is literally able to whip them similar to that of a water hosing manner. By using this, he is also able to achieve another variation by looping them around until both tails ends of the crescent are jointed, forming a large halo like disc. He refers to this cutting disc as Buzz Sawing Crescent due to it's appearance and size as it resembles an enormous buzz saw consisting of raw light energy. Instead of releasing it Kazei is able to keep the power of the Rensa Lunetsu within the edges of the blade, causing a chainsaw effect to take form around the edges of the blade, enabling him to greatly augment the cutting power of his zanpakuto in return.
2. Shuuren Tekkoudan (Drill Spiraling Star) - An enhanced version of the Tekkoudan Stel. Kazei will produce a super high densified frequency drill beam from the tip of his sword in the form of a laser cannon. The actual composition is much different than it's predecessor in shape, size, and intensity. In fact, it is much stronger and faster than it's predecessor. The laser now takes the form of a cone shaped drill cannon surrounded by bright rings of spiraling light creating a drill like affect as it runs up the tip of the laser. At normal power the rings around the drill cannon rotates at approximately 60000rps, radiating enough piercing power to easily penetrate into even the strongest of the strongest defenses. By regulating the intensity of Shuuren Tekkoudan, Kazei is able to increase the rotation speed of the column of rings surrounding the drill cannon, causing the speed of the rotations per minute to heighten. By regulating reiryoku into it's shape, Kazei is able to add initial rings to the drill cannon, adding greatly to it's piercing power. The length of these beams can be greatly increased in size as depending on the amount of reiryoku Kazei is putting into it, ranging from small needle sized drill lasers to behemoth sized drill cannons. He is also able to manifest different forms of this technique, such as causing drill pillars to sprout up from ground to pierce them from underneath by stabbing his zanpakuto into the ground and causing the spiraling energy to travel underneath and onto the surface. Kazei is also able to manipulate the swirling spiral force within the drills at such high levels enabling the drill to reach incredible rpms, causing a powerful air turbulence so strong that it creates a vacuum affect. Instead of releasing it Kazei is able to contain the power of the Shuuren Tekkoudan within his sword as well, causing a drill like effect to take effect around the zanpakuto, enabling him to greatly augment it's drilling power in return.
3. Bakudan Solgen (Guided Detonating Sun) - An enhanced version of the Hazeru Solgen. Kazei will produce a super high densified frequency compact charge of light from the belly of his sword that will come in the form of a grenade, bomb, or missile. However it's actual composition and physiology is much different than it's predecessor in shape, size, and intensity. In fact, it's release in energy is much more faster and the impact in force is much stronger. These charges are now cylindrical in shape, and can be programmed to perform different functions with Kazei's reiryoku. One of these functions is known as the guided scatter, which allows the charges of light to take on missile form and hunt down by locking onto their reiryoku. It is what he refers to as a reiryoku seeking system. Kazei can program these charges to lock upon to specific reiryoku emanating with targets, meaning they are never confused with locking on to the rest of the reshi that the soul society consists of. These reiryoku seeking missiles have a devastating affect on the environment as they always end in a powerful explosion of energy on impact. Kazei is also able to control the direction in which the explosion, meaning if were up close at point blank range of the target, he is able to cause the burst of light to explode outward instead of expanding in all directions. This allows him to control the main power of the explosion and focus it solely on the target without losing the main power of the explosion on the environment and everything else irrelevant to the target. Saiketsu is also able to produce charges with timers through his reiryoku as well as attaching them various surfaces such as clamping them to walls, planting them underneath the ground as mine charges, as well as tossing them as hand grenade charges from his sword.
~Mask Information~
Mask Appearance: Masked Kazei Masked Shikai Ability: When masked, Kazei's shikai ability becomes intensified. The collection of light from the three phantom bodies are much quicker as well as powerful. Each of his shikai attacks are highly enhanced as well in both speed in and power. The appearance of them are much brighter in form, so bright of a crimson that the attack literally seems blindingly white. These attacks can sometimes disorient enemies upon being fired due to their brightness, making it difficult for opponent's to react towards them. Masked Shikai Attacks:
-Enhanced Jougen Lunetsu -Enhanced Tekkoudan Stel -Enhanced Bakudan Solgen
Masked Bankai Ability: Samoshii Narune; Also known as "Selfish Light" - When hollowfied, attacks produced from Kazei now take the form of a deeper crimson than usual. One of the terrifying aspects of Kazei's hollowfied form is that his attacks emit no light. Every single proton of light is taken and stored within the stomach of his attacks, giving them a darker appearance. Because there is no light emitted from his attacks, there are no protons wasted such as those usually seen by the naked eye or those giving light to the environment, hence why it is known as 'Selfish Light'. Any protons that are seen are identified by the naked eye as darkness or the absence of light. Instead, the attacks are stored into one single entity of ultra high density light. Kazei's speed becomes much more augmented in as well. His speed has heightened at a level to the point where he can exceed the speed of his own attacks, making it easy for him to attack an opponent omnidirectionally. Masked Bankai Attacks:
1. Enhanced Rensa Lunetsu- When Hollowfied, Rensa Lunetsu takes on a more frightening manifestation. It's size can range from small crescents to fifteen story sized crescents. Each of them are now outlined in additional sets of reshi chains that revolve around the chainsaw like beam. Each of these chains revolve around the beams at approximately five million rotations per second, giving it terrifying cutting power. The shape of the Rensa Lunetsu takes on a more twisted appearance as well. The crescent beam no longer keeps it's shape and sometimes take the shape of a spiraling force of deep crimson light that constantly spirals with an unpredictable course of movement towards the opponent. It can more notably take the form of a beam tornado consisting of spiraling super high density chainsaw light that will threaten to suck opponent's into it's vortex of tremendous cutting force.
2. Enhanced Shuuren Tekkoudan- When Kazei becomes hollowfied, the Shuuren Tekkoudan takes on a more devastating effect than usual. The drill cannon now possesses additional sets of coils or rings around it, causing whatever it pierces to be pulled or forced into the drill upon impact. Each of these rings including the drill beam itself rotates at approximately ten million rotations per second, which is also responsible for the vacuum effect it creates when spiraling, causing opponents to be pulled into the vortex of the drill shaped beam cannon. Kazei can also manipulate the direction of the Shuuren Tekkoudan. By bending them, he can cause them to snake around corners for surprise attacks. Kazei's hollowfied Shuuren is also capable of traveling underneath the ground at great speeds without losing momentum before rising up as enormous spire like pillars of drilling light.
3. Enhanced Hazeru Solgen- When Hollowfied, Hazeru Solgen becomes just as powerful as it's sibling techniques. These charges are now so deep of a crimson in appearance that they appear black with a brighter crimson outline. The explosive power of these charges are what sets them apart from the original Hazeru Solgen. When hollowfied, Kazei can create charges that contain explosions within explosions ranging from depth charges. flash charges, impact charges, and more. Each of their effects are amplified, as Kazei can literally contain hundreds of explosions within one charge. The explosions in one single charge will expand so fast, that it can sometimes seem as though it were only one single enormous explosion. In other words, instead of sending out five missile shaped charges towards the opponent, when hollowfied Kazei can contain the force of five missile charges into one missile charge.

Zanjutsu: (Swordsmanship Techniques)
-Guuzouken Ruse Sword A technique that involves trickery of the light. By luring the opponent's eyes with a series of hypnotic blade movements the user will create false images of the weapon he is holding and manipulate it's movements, causing them to confuse it for the real thing.
-Gazouken (Image Sword) A technique that combines zanjutsu with the shadow blink. It is a technique where the user's actions with the blade are increased at such a speed that multiple after images of the sword itself appears in place of where the blade has already been swung or thrust. However these after images are quite different that normal after images, as the force contained within each one of them is very real even though the technique has already happened. Should they land a direct hit on the opponent, it will be just as real as the zanpakuto itself attacking. Should these images be deflected, avoided, or blocked in any way or form they will simply vanish.
-Suieizouken (Swimming Sword) A technique that combines zanjutsu with the speed of the shadow authority. The technique works by vibrating and swinging the sword in and outward in a zigzagging so rapidly, that it causes the blade to seem as if it has taken liquid form as it snakes around in a water hose like effect when being swung around. This make the sword very unpredictable and can sometimes seem as if is threatening to wrap around the opponent in a lashing manner similar to that of a whip.
-Senkou Narabi (Flash Line) It is a technique where the user's actions with the blade are increased so fast and fluid that the actual appearance of the actions are now replaced by curving lines of light that will cut in a variety of directions and forms. The user combines zanjutsu with the ultimate speed of the shadow authority, leaving only flashing lines of light behind in place of where the light engulfed blade of his sword has already sliced. In other words it is the handwork speed counterpart of footwork. Instead of leaving behind after images of the user's light engulfed sword, it leaves after-slices or after-slashes of curving light that will threaten to carve into the target. The technique can only accessed through the shikai version of his zanpakuto. In bankai mode, an enhanced version of this technique is able to be accessed.
-Senkou Arashi (Flash Storm) A technique in which the user combines both zanjutsu and the speed of the shadow authority. Just as it says, the user deflects away even the tiniest and smallest of attacks through an intense flurry of deflection unseen by the naked eye.The user focuses the speed of the shadow authority into their zanjutsu as well as their hands giving them the deflection speed to knock back even the greatest in number and tiniest attacks sent at him. When Kazei uses this technique, thousands of curving lines of light are seen. In training, Kazei has even been seen to split 1,000,000 leaves falling shaken from a spirit tree before they could even touch the ground. Kazei is able to perform this technique in an offensive manner as well. It is known as the Flash Web, an offensive version of the Deflection Storm. He is able to produce a countless number of after slashes to the point where they form a gigantic web of light or cutting force, that will literally surround the opponent before entangling them in it's immense cutting force.
-Gaozouken (Phantom Sword) This technique can often be known as the secondary strike. It allows sword masters to use reiatsu behind a sword strike, to produce an exact same strike right after the physical one made. This strike is made by compressing air and reiatsu directly behind the user's blade for a secondary burst of damage. The unique capability this technique presents however is the ability to control the way the force is struck with the secondary strike; from blunt like a hammer, to incredibly sharp like a normal blade. Along with the added bonus of the attack being unseen when it strikes. Kazei is able to produce additional phantoms beyond the primary and secondary phantom such as the tertiary, quaternary, quinary, senary, septenary, octonary, nonary, and denary. In total he is able to produce at least nine strikes in one single blow, making this technique one of the most feared of his zanjutsu.
-Gaozoken Sanmuya (Phantom Cutting Edge) The true attack of Kazei, marking his mastery at zanjutsu. The ability to release highly condensed reiatsu energy from the blade of a sword in the form of a wave or arch. This technique concentrates and compresses reiatsu at the edge of a sword to fire a blast of pure reiatsu. Although the form is always a wave or stream, it can be used in various methods from striking damage away or slicing the ground to create an omnidirectional blast to stop attacks valued at the same level of power that was released by the attack or strike with debris as well as the power. These blasts take on the color of the Kazei's reiatsu and can reach a distance of twenty meters in the direction it is released. Kazei is able to produce initial phantoms within this technique as well. He for every single wave or stream produced, he is able to release up to at least nine phantoms mimicking the exact same force within the wave or stream. Kazei holds a shikai attack much similar to this technique known as the Jougen Lunetsu, which exceeds this technique by far.
Hiden Kaze Ryuuzeisen- The user swings their sword towards the enemy using the Hiden Kaze Ryuumeisen technique. The wind is channeled that it avoids the very first object, being redirected around it, hitting the second object with full force. Used against hiding opponents, as well as hostage situations.
A skill developed for hostage situations. It misses the first person and hits the intended target instead who is behind them. This though utilizes reiatsu to allow for the air to bypass the first solid object that it hits. This happens is that the user focuses on their reiatsu on a small part of the Jutsu. This can be used at conjunctions for buildings and other objects as well.
-Tanjuu Tsuppari (Pistol Sword) A technique that combines zanjutsu with the speed of the shadow authority. It is a technique in which the user performs exceptionally fast thrusts that leaves behind a long spear of light in place where the user's blade has pierced through the air that strikes out in rapid speeds. These thrusts hold munch more speed than the Flash Sword. Each spear of light that is seen by the naked eye are actual after-images or after-piercings in which the user has already thrust his blade. This technique can only be accessed through the shikai of Kazei's zanpakuto. An enhanced version of it can also be accessed through the bankai of his zanpakuto, which add's a drilling effect to the shimmering spears.
-Mashin Tsutsu (Machine Gun Sword) A technique that combines shadow authority with zanjutsu. It is a technique where the user will perform a series thrusts in which the extension and contraction between each thrust is nearly unseen. The result of this technique leaves behind multitudes of sharp shimmering spears of light produced by the second. Each of these spears are deadly after images or after-thrusts in place of where the user has thrust his sword. Averagely up to hundreds of these spears of light can be produced by the second, clearly showing how fast the he is pumping his wrist in and outward with each thrust.
Hakuda: (Hand to Hand Combat Techniques) -Tossaude no Hakuda (Art of Instant Arm) Kazei has a two fold focus. One on keeping the public relations between different things together, and another for a first quick assault on the battlefield. Each member is expected to be at the fastest their body will carry them, which led to the development of this technique. The ability is a simple principle, instead of using the shunpo technique in the legs, it is routed to the arms. Whether the combatant is a swordsman, or a hand to hand, they can find some usage in this technique. The technique is rather different in terms of normal combat, being a quick and careless assault to knock a enemy off their feat to deliver a stronger attack.
The attacks are shot out not for perfect accuracy, but to get so many attacks in that the opponent will run into them trying to block the others. It starts out with a rather small amount of attacks capable, but soon escalates into something truly deadly.
-Dondengaeshi (Complete Reversal) A Technique combining a mastery over Hakuda, Reiatsu, and Kidouryoku. Dondengaeshi is initiated by forming a twisting spiral of Reiatsu around the user’s arms or legs (depending on what part of the body he or she prefers). The energy only lasts for a moment (five to ten seconds, or one complete turn) but it blazes so furiously that it actually causes to affected limbs of the user to flare with the color of his Reiatsu, though this is simply cosmetic.
The user then strikes out at the target, the spiraling force of the blast digging into the part of the zone of impact, while thin streams of Reiatsu spread throughout the struck area. The streams exit out through the user’s body and split across the target’s limb, leaving black marks across the area hit in the form a deep spiral. The afflicted body part then convulses severely.
This is not because of the strike, so much as the Kidouryoku used in conjunction with it. It is a specialized Kidouryoku that works without a set program. The Kidouryoku that is released upon the impact cuts through the skin and deep into the body, going so far as to imprint itself onto the muscles and bones. The bone is then cut by the strike and the muscles are twisted, compacting the area and causing it to crush itself. This attack is extremely painful and can leave a struck area almost useless, and; if struck in certain parts of the body, it can prove to be fatal. As such, it usually is not recommended for use in most casual fights (as with most high level Techniques).
-Iaiken (Settling Fists) This Technique was founded upon the basic principles of Iaidou (unique art of sword drawing and cutting), but is instead performed with the fist and any sort of adequately taut covering (i.e. pocket, obi sash, tightened sleeve, etc.). In turn, the resistance created from the covering will increase the push from the strike, enabling a faster attack.
The result is a "bullet" of sheer air pressure. It strikes at an increased velocity – faster than a normal punch from the user. However the strike's speed is weakened in raw power due to no tangible Reiatsu/Kidou empowering the blow. Its maximum range is six meters.
The other added ability to this attack is the fact that the user's arm moves faster than his/her opponent's eyes can see. Unless the opponent has at least the same level or higher in hakuda, viewing the arm in motion alone is considered impossible. However, those with more than half the user's, they will be able to see the speeding fist. The strength in this Technique lies within its faster than normal, invisible attacks.
-Kyuu Picchi (Quick Pace) Practitioners of the Way of physical combat have always lived by the same principle day after day: Death is only an arm’s length away. Even the most powerful of warriors can be brought down by a single weak enemy that can keep them at a distance, and as such, this Technique was conceived to help them close the distance to the enemy in a matter of seconds. For Shinigami, this skill has been labeled as Shunpo, but the ability to attack in Shunpo is beyond the reach of most, and even after it is attained. Kyuu Picchi answers the need to close the gap, but also covers the need to attack as quickly as possible by being fundamentally close to Shunpo, but not as instantaneous. By concentrating for a brief moment, the user can summon Reiatsu to his or her feet and burst forward at half the speed of Shunpo, while also being capable of striking the enemy during any point of the movement with added momentum to his or her attack. The user moves at the same speed as the shunpo step, but will only move half the distance than normal, but be capable of executing an attack while moving in this high speed. When this form of shunpo is used, all shunpo like movements cannot be used again for one turn.
-Gaokouken (Phantom Fist) A technique that is very similar to it's brother techniques. This technique can often be known as the secondary strike. It allows hand to hand masters to use reiatsu behind a palm or fist strike, to produce an exact same strike right after the physical one made. This strike is made by compressing air and reiatsu directly behind the user's hands for a secondary burst of damage. He is able to increase the number of these phantom strikes as he pleases by a multitude, enabling him to punch or palm strike his opponent a multitude of times in one blow. In other words if he used the phantom fist in each fist to punch the opponent, the number of times he would have struck the opponent is four times in only two blows.
Hoho: (Step Method Techniques)
-Shadou Ashimoto (Shadow Blink or Shadow Step) Munch like the shunpo, except a munch smother variation. The user will blink from one location and then to the next area without the slightest sound of swishing or static, unlike shunpo or sonido. The technique works by the opponent moving in and outward from a location and back into the exact position while maintaining their exact posture, stance, and pose as they did before they left, in return making it seem as if the user did not move at all. All attacks from the opponent will simply appear as if they are simply passing through the user. The only evidence showing that the user is moving is the shadowy footprints engraved into the ground ground around them in place of where they have already moved.
-Shadou Shutto (Shadow Authority) An enhanced version of the Shadow Blink. The technique works by combining the speed or zanjutsu and the Shadow Blink. Instead of focusing the speed of the Shadow Blink into a specific area on the body such as the feet, the technique is focused into swordplay instead. The user's sword wielding hand will move at a speed that surpasses shunpo, making it seem as if they're hands are not moving at all. As the opponent attacks the user, their techniques will seem as if they are continuing missing the target or simply bouncing off of the target. Kazei is able to incorporate this ability into attack the opponent just as well as he is at deflecting. It should be noted that most of his zanjutsu attacks were born from this ability, making his offensive style one of the fastest.
-Shadou Zettai (Shadow Authority) An enhanced version of the Shadow Authority. Unlike it's brother techniques that focuses the power of Shadow Blink into a single part of the body, the Shadow Authority focuses the power of the Shadow Blink into all parts of the body simultaneously. In other words, it incorporates the speed technique into full body coordination. In return. Not only can the user increase his speed to drastic levels, the motion in which he incorporates the speed techniques are intensely fluid. When moving through this technique, Kazei will leave identical replicas of himself behind that resemble after images. However these are not after images, as these images can indeed bring harm to the opponent. Neither do these images fade away after he has moved from location to the next and nor are they clones. In truth these images are actually Kazei rotating from a set number of positions with the exact style, pose, and posture making it seem as if the images. It will appear as if there are multiple images that are surrounding the opponent. When these images attack, each movement and attack is substituted in place for where Kazei has moved in and attacked the opponent before moving to the next location. Although these images are mere representations of Kazei's movement, the force they carry within them are very real. And should they attack the opponent such as stabbing, the force of the blow will be just as real as Kazei stabbing the opponent himself. Should the images or their attacks be avoided or blocked, they will simply vanish into an ethereal like shadow.
-Kanshunpo (Perfect Shunpo) Rather than having to rely on bursts, this special form of Shunpo is a continuous flow of Reiatsu that increases the distance that can be traveled ten fold and allows for a smooth transition into Shunpo and out of it consistently in battle. The character is allowed to evade many more attacks, but Reiatsu is drained at a quicker rate.
-Heki Shunpo (Fake Shunpo) Deception is key for misleading your enemies is the simplest way to cause confusion. Fake Shunpo lets the user make the impression that they Shunpo in one direction, but really move in another. The Tech is simple, but highly effective, as it can throw off an opponent’s split second decision that they need to make. If the opponent has comparable Hohou to the user, the deception can be kept up for up to a twenty step Shunpo. Any longer than that, and the opponent can see through the deception before the user of Heki Shunpo can complete it.
-Gaokogiri (Phantom Step) The phantom step is much similar to it's brother phantom techniques, however it is used as a step method technique. This technique can often be known as the secondary step. It allows Kazei to use reiatsu behind his feet to produce an exact same force of the step right after the physical one is made. This step is made by compressing air and reiatsu directly underneath the user's foot for a secondary burst of speed. For this reason, the technique Gaokogiri is also known as 'Two Strides in One Step'. The effectiveness of this technique can be heightened with the number of phantoms used behind each step. In some cases Kazei has demonstrated the ability to administer nine phantoms per step of both feet, making giving him the speed of 'Eighteen Strides in Two Steps', enabling him to instantaneously close the gap in distance between himself and the opponent.
Joutei Hikigiri (Light God Step) - Also known as Stride of the Light God. This technique is a passive ability that comes with Kazei's bankai. The bankai enables him incredible increments from the speed of light, enabling him to reach speeds that surpass even surpass shunpo and the utsusemi. Like Hikigiri, Jouten Hikigiri leaves behind bright flashes of light, bright enough to temporarily disorient the enemy for brief periods of time. However Jouten Hikigiri is so intense that these flashes remain and linger for longer periods of time making them excellent for decoys. Because the light in these flashes are so much higher in concentration, Kazei's reiryoku is also left within the millions of photons that they consist of, making it hard to sense where his exact location is as well. When used, Kazei is outlined in bright intense light almost so bright that it appears as if he's his own walking sun.
