A Combat Art that unleashes a storm of attacks from the sheathed stance; so fast the blade is nigh invisible. Costs Spirit Emblems to use. One must focus their soul on the release of the blade, nothing else. Through that focus, the strikes achieve a god-like speed. Only one as honed as the aging Isshin Ashina could perform this technique. |
