» Appearance Description:
+Eye Color:Azuma’s eyes are of a soft tempered Ruby, with the slightest hint of blood in them. This color is different and almost is as unique as the person they belong too; as this color is rare almost like what people might naturally attribute to Amber, or the color of gold. Very few people have that color mostly because of how the pigmentation has to be mutated, a specific error in the gene’s is what is wholly the cause of the abnormal and almost more often than not contact worthy color of his eyes, too clear too defined they are hard to mistake in any given situation. As the color is so pure that if it wasn’t for the tint of bloodied color you might think instead of just a color that somehow the kid had been born with pure ruby eye’s, that’s just the level of clarity that they often are able to possess.

+Complexion:Rather lighter then dark, he has a more wintery white complexion versus a tanner side-complexion in the summer months. It’s more the stately disposition of his skin in which without sunlight it can get as pale as a vampire off twilight. Minus the sparkling, but in the months of spring and summer or when the sun is blaring out; it becomes easy to see the natural wonder of the skin. Given his complexion is odd and unique in the fact it may not retain a good tan for the winter certainly it can’t retain it over a given month, but he is able to tan within the frame of just a few days; and when I say tan, I mean a pretty good full on tan. Given his roots and origins its more he’s harder pressed to burn then he would be to tan.

+Body-Build: Azuma has what you might call a rather muscular yet lean and slim build, the kind you often stereotype with a beach boy, or a surfer dude. The kind of sculpted muscles on the bod that often even the people of the old world would have been envious of; just with his muscles in proportion to the amount of fat he has its nominal. Quite literally he has the body of a supermodel or the terminator In terms of the muscularity, even though the muscles themselves aren’t absurdly big to the point of dysfunction in ratio to overall height; they are proportionally large for his height, meaning that in a given day this gives him the ability or capacity to actually do things like say his bench press in real life, this is not in the internet world or accelerated world. He himself has a given ratio which will be explained below to give and idea of his muscularity in proportion to the body build he has. Like for example, his weight is around 190 pounds and he stands at 6 foot 1inch.

+The-Racial-Features:Azuma has rather interesting facial features, being they are a mix of American and Japanese Given the fact that his dad was American and his mom was Japanese. These features include a rather angular and sturdy jaw, not to mention his hair which isn’t black but instead is a nice actual color and even the fact that his height is above what you might call normal and or “Par “ which is the given reason why his entire make up genetically and physically is going to be different than that of most of the people that are present currently, as while it might look like he’s not from Japan, given the fact that his father’s genes where primarily dominant over his moms recessive genes.

+The-Delinquent-Vibe: Just as the name suggests, Azuma carries this vibe about him; that just seems to give a person the idea that he’s up to no good. Its probably thanks to the eyes, or maybe just how outlandish he looks in general, but the feeling of Delinquency carries over none the less. Put that in with an i-don’t give a damn attitude and it becomes quite literally a overwhelming vibe of flat out delinquency no matter how he tries to change it. So yes Azuma Reeks of this kind of “Delinquent” Aura , intentionally or unintentionally you could just attribute it to his mannerisms and charisma, however the fact remains that at the end of the day, if you just got a look at the guy in a fleeting moment. Well you would definitively brand him as some kind of mob-hit man or delinquent in general, its just kind of a automatic assumption based on stereotypes that have been built up by society over many years.

Personality

» Personality:

+Don’t Know Don’t Care: Azuma has this attitude, and if something isn’t brought to his knowledge. Well then he won’t care about it, I mean you cut off your leg he can see that and he may cut the person some slack; but if you had something personal going on unknown to him? Say you had a pet die, and your work ethic suffered that day, well if you didn’t tell him about it before hand; then he wouldn’t give a shit no matter who you are. Ya see, he works with what he knows and bases his assumptions off that information, he doesn’t honestly give two fucks if that information is correct or not when it comes to certain situations, since he uses the info on hand, and if ya fail to tell him something that is effecting or causing you to well suffer. Then he will just say “Sorry ya didn’t tell me so tough cookies” or rather something along those lines more likely then not. So it’s not likely he will feel bad about what he does, because when he does it? In his mind what he’s doing is not only reasonable to do, but it’s also perfectly logical to be doing and as such he won’t even try to defend his actions. Or rather he feels no need to defend his actions or petty things like pride, because if someone gives him lacking information then that is the informants fault and if someone wants to whine and bitch? Either he’s gunna say “take a hike and cool off bub” Or “Go bitch to the informant because I’m not paying attention to whiny brats.” So you can see that his attitude is pretty intense.

In a lesser extent on the battle field, this extends into when his own allies get themselves blown up, because if he’s fighting his own battles? Well lets put it this way, if Azuma is fighting someone, and a ally comes up bitching cause say their ass just fell off for example, then he’s probably just going to say.. like for example something on the lines of “ Sounds like a personal problem” Or “Ya should fix that” And maybe. “Do I look like your mommy?” Hence the fact that in battle this “Don’t Know Don’t Care” attitude means that he has his own problems and he doesn’t really need to be dealing with someone elses shit on top of that. Sounds cruel but that’s just how he operates since the world isn’t exactly made up of rainbows and ponies and his life hasn’t exactly been easy, yet he isn’t bitchin so in his mind he feels others should man up and shut up.

This does spell disaster in social situations though. Given his mannerisms he tends to act rash, or haughty and often will just disregard people he doesn’t know. The fact is though, the way he does it is neither arrogant or in a way that would lead one to think, that he thought he was better than they are. No simply he just doesn’t want to deal with them, because if he doesn’t know them, he doesn’t really care about them, like if you are a complete stranger and you walk up and start complaining to him, he probably will just flat out walk off or pick his nose, and even maybe just shush the person before leaving, since quite honestly if he doesn’t find you interesting then he’s not going to waste even an iota of his brain power or time on you since well, why would you waste time on someone that isn’t even worth remembering. At least that’s how he looks at it, since if he isn’t going to remember the persons name at the very minimum then he probably didn’t even need to pay attention to the person in the first place thus he just wasted some precious time, which is a pet peeve of his.

+Comrade’s and Loyalties: Azuma is the kind of guy you would want to have your back in a fire fight, that’s just the honest truth. Because to him Comrades are precious even though he might believe in “Tough love” so to speak, and that means he ultimately even if he doesn’t show it, is going to take action with his comrades safety in mind. He’s not going to do anything to harm them most of the time other then the occasional punch for being a moron or something. Ultimately that’s why he is not the kind of person to leave a man behind, rather he will if he has too fight through an entire army by his lonesome but ass naked if needed to rescue a comrade which was stuck behind enemy lines. Since man power is important and if You don’t take care of ya own, then you aren’t really in a position that you can honestly say shit about other people. Its called tending to your own before tending to others which is a ideal that he keeps close to his moralities and his heart since he doesn’t really have many friends but he does view his comrades as everything and his legacy.

As such while he’s not the guy to fight other peoples battles, he’s not the kind of man that will sit idly by if his comrade is being obvious pummeled into the ground, or insulted when they can’t hear or defend their own actions. In these situations he’s going to step in and provide a firm hand, be it telling the person off, or socking them in the jaw until they understand the error of their ways; either of those things would work perfectly fine, in his mind at least, but the point comes across the same, not only is he going to keep track of his comrade’s he’s going to have their back outside of fire-fights and in common day situations, I mean he will not become their marriage councilor or grieving pillow but; he will help them up until a point because well they are comrades they are important and he’s for better or for worse going to be stuck with them for a pretty good duration of time.

Finally though he has a certain sense of loyalty that defies both higher reasoning and common sense; as he will not betray a person that trusts him even if it means certain death, in a way he’s kind of like a old fashioned samurai accept in the modern day era of course. Because to him he will protect his comrades the beliefs they hold, and the objective of the group above all. These things are important to him, which is why he doesn’t even go about things such as hanging with other groups or bad-mouthing anyone in the faction he resides in, because while he might see things differently they ultimately are again comrades who are going to be for better or worse sticking around for a pretty good duration of time to come.

+Immense Resolve: Azuma has immense focus and willpower, which can be seen in even simple day to day circumstances. As while he might not be the kind of person to give out long winded explanations of his reasons and motivations he’s not going to stand by if he’s still moving. Which is why the aura he gives out is overwhelming even if it’s merely from his actions in a normal setting. Everything he does and will do has a purpose and he’s not going to argue with others even if he has to forcibly get it done, he will sure as hell get it done. To him at least when he starts something unless he is killed in the process he’s going to finish it, there is just no other option to him other than to either get it done or die trying to get it done, those are the only two options he’s ever given himself, and failure isn’t really in his vocabulary for obvious and rather easy to see reasons.

This Extends into battle quite literally, as it’s just part of who he is , like if he’s blown up and loses his legs, it doesn’t matter to him if the pain is overwhelming or if he’s partially paralyzed. No he will in spite of those things still force himself forward even if it’s on his will and his resolve determination and focus alone. So if you want to really stop him from moving, the best bet at least due to how he acts in general, would be to flat out kill him, since unless he’s dead he’s going to keep forcing himself to get up or crawl and keep trying to get the job done, No excuses no buts no” well I need to do “ it’s just he will go and do it, plain and simple if he has to do it, he will do it. Its just a matter of if he’s going to be alive or dead in the process of doing it, really though living or dying doesn’t really hold much of a sway over his actions they just are a part of life that he’s ultimately accepted and in the process of living he knows he will eventually cease to be living. Everything dies eventually, he knows this and he accepts this.

Zanpakutō

» Zanpakutō Name: Ignite

» Zanpakutō Spirit Appearance: His spirit is kind of odd, what it looks like well could be explained is that the spirit has no shape it’s more like a primordial force which can move a whim and materialize in shape only when Needed, meaning that the spirit itself doesn’t have what one might consider to be a “Set” Appearance, and instead is unable to really be given a set appearance as for the most part it tends to stay in a state in which is cannot accurately at the very least be seen. However if one was to see it, in its full form it would look like a massive demonic entity which fills up the entirety of the inner world , its eyes are like miniature suns, and its voice is like demonic fangs which is why it looks like this, a demon in name and in actual manifestation, is quite amply the only way to describe it.

» Zanpakutō Spirit Personality:
+Vague Intentions: Ignite has a vague kind of personality which is hard to pinpoint at the best of times. It isn’t that however the zan itself is fickle or whimsical, it’s that the zan spirit itself doesn’t perceive matters such as mortality , time , or even say life or death like a normal being would. It is slow to wake and doesn’t ever exactly give what you would consider to be a straight answer. Instead what it gives is fragments of the truth, hiding its feelings in riddles and fickle words that often leave someone guessing as to just what is going on. It’s not direct and its hard to fully understand the intentions behind its actions, it pushes Azuma in one direction or the other, but from what it says and the stark contrast in what it does itself it makes it hard to truly understand the severity or importance that Azuma Holds for the zan either. In the best situations he might get one or two direct to the point answers as to what he’s supposed to be doing. In the worst of situations this is hardly done, if at all , for this reason the zan doesn’t have many “Highlightable” Features instead it has many Vague features that mix together in its intentions.

Say The Zan is making Azuma train, it might not even say why, or give much explanation as to what it wants done, the zan feels the relationship between sword and sword master goes farther then verbal words. You must be able to fully understand your zan, to know it to the point you don’t have to speak, you just work in tune and in sync with them. So only in dire situations has the zan ever really said much to azuma, it hasn’t really found the need to explain or ask for explanation of Azuma’s Actions either. Merely it just goes with the flow, correcting him only when it’s needed and observing him when its not. This steams from the fact Ignite’s personality is fitted to that of a “Entity” or a vast presence , it has immense power but it doesn’t really see things as a single individual might. It is looking ahead at the big picture which is normally not comprehensible by mundane means. It isn’t going to wait around either, when it says something even if it’s not really comprehensible and is summarized in probably a few words, it is still important as the Zan itself doesn’t say things without a good reason which is why it is known to have “Vague Intentions”

However it’s never acted without the best interest of Azuma , everything it does seems to be primarily focused on pushing its owner in the right path, making him get stronger and understand the situation as it comes along. Such is why the zan itself is while vague working again with the best intentions of its owner in mind.

» Inner World:
The inner world for Azuma Is Hard To Explain, it isn’t like a place but it’s a plane, flat and expanding on in every direction. Within it is the building blocks of friction and heat, static can be seen clear as day crackling in the air causing sparks of flame, sparks of electricity, sparks of lightning, explosions. His inner world is full of turmoil because of these things, because of the fact his inner world is an extension and an embodiment of his zan that has to do with his elements, which would be obviously friction. The sky itself is a black which is incomprehensibly dark, almost to the point nothing can be done to visibly discern exactly how far it goes on, its like staring into an event horizon, but that might be the accurate way to truly describe it, Because the zan’s inner world is primordial, basic and primate, like a world laid bare and only left with a plane to walk on, and a sky to look up to. Its not grand or magnificent, it is merely functional as that’s all its intended for, to function.

If you added into this though, there are slight differences, like the tiled plane which stretches on in every direction infinitely seems to have two sides to it, the side of hollows, where the altered and genetically modified hollow tora implanted within him actually rests, and on the other side, is what is known as the Primordial Cliff, or Worlds End, a ragged outcropping which seems to border the end of one side of his inner worlds expansion, an endless pit full of raging power, and energy which is the true essence of his zan, not fully harnessed and truly the gravity within is akin to a black hole. The manifestation of his zan, an entity in name and power resides within this endless pitch black space, which neither light nor life would ever escape from if they fell in, Going down from that cliff is nothing, to jump down it would be a one way ticked into the zans essence, and even its owner would become lost forever in its immense depths. Left to wander the mental plane for the rest of the eternity they would be spending within the world itself, but that is Azuma’s Inner World.

Sealed Zanpakutō Appearance: The sealed appearance is a pair of gloves which are always on azuma’s hands. These gloves seem to have ridge back designs in them and further then that they almost seem to have a kind of spark to them, being of a dark black color. Visible and clearly soft to the touch, they are despite that able to build up and withstand immense force. Those are his gloves though.

»Sealed Zanpakutō Abilities:

+ Friction Amplification: Azuma has the ability to manipulate and amplify friction between objects, it is hard to explain if you got into specifics but the base concept is it causes the opposing force which is naturally present and accounts for things such as traction, to become greatly increased, this means that in essence he takes the friction which can passively generate heat, and then is amplifying it vastly beyond what it previously was foundto be. This was a skill that had been learned and focused over time when he was forcibly training in secret, as the secret weapon of the Monsuta, This friction eventually ascended to the point for example a snap can induce enough friction to create an immense explosion of flame which could engulf multiple city blocks or cause for things within a certain radius to become utterly vaporized in its shockwave, but that’s just a basic example of what it is capable of doing.

Other examples include if he was on the ground he could amplify the friction against his feet to increase how fast he could go or to even stop himself from flying back. This means that for the most part the ability is increasing the force generated by objects which come in contact with one another. The ground comes in contact with his feet, thus he would be able to increase the friction to the point of combustion without a problem. His fingers run against each other, he could amplify the friction until it was enough to set off say a dust explosion without a problem. His hand runs against another person? He could apply friction and potentially cause immense third degree burns or for flame to suddenly combust on the opponents frame without a problem what so ever. His hands touching the ground, he could pull the ground with him, by amplifying the friction so the ground literally was stuck to his hand and dragging with him.

If he was standing on a vertical drop, Azuma could amplify the friction and cause his feet to in essence stay rooted to the spot, from friction alone he could cause the a person’s attack to fundamentally stop by applying his hand on the side of it, and then again by amplifying that friction it could induce enough counter force indirectly that it could actually stop the attack outright. This Friction is applied on a physical and spiritual level, such as “Spiritual Friction” A special concept that he learned under Tora Lionus. Or the capacity to apply friction on a spiritual level to cause things to happen that normally could be considered not possible. In example this “Friction” could cause him to super heat the very spiritual energy around him, and within the radius generate white hot flames which could eat through base metals and defenses which are of a lower tier level then him.

[Note To his traction see the example given in this section ]

Or even Friction amplification could be used against the energy of a opponent itself causing it to detonate prematurely by causing a over-abundance of opposite and contradictory force to be applied with it. Meaning that if someone fired a cero and had the same tier, well he could in essence have the fundamental capacity to “ Stop “ the cero by applying enough spiritual friction that the cero itself could be stopped outright. And then be redirected by in essence allowing the “Spiritual” Friction to overpower and then in result stop the cero.

+Spiritual Friction: Spiritual friction is Something Unique to Azuma, it takes the concept of friction the Opposing force of two objects and then applies it to spiritual particles, energy itself that he uses gains the concept of friction, generating heat against one another. That is the base concept of spiritual friction, literally allowing for “traction” and the capacity to catch or stop physical and spiritual attacks by literally forcing it to have to overpower the spiritual energy that is present in the air. Such as if someone threw a punch, he could using this base concept be able to slow down and or stop the attack outright. By increasing the friction of the spiritual field around him it would increasingly appose the force behind the punch and eventually have the capacity to stop it.

Though this would not mean it could stop attacks all the time, it just makes them harder to land. So as an example if someone who was stronger than him actually had thrown the punch, he might be able to half or reduce the damage a reasonable amount by using this method. It wouldn’t be however he could flat out entirely stop it, this is merely the ability to apply friction or the concept of friction to spiritual energy. So it means that while it may have numerous applications in practice, the concept isn’t about fully negating or fully stopping an opponent. Its about manipulating the force of two objects coming in contact with each other. Which is why he can apply it to free floating energy particles which is the way he could in theory induce heat; this gets tricky though because while this is using minimal drain the greater the friction induced the more energy drain it applies spiritually in a turn. Such as a Kinetic User manipulates kinetic energy but every time they might have to “Expend” some of their own energy to pull it off, the same concept applies here.

Also this is used in moderation because what is possible for a 0-2 that’s using this level of manipulation isn’t going to be possible for what a 1-1 would be using for this manipulation. So the power of it is based on what is considered reasonable for that tier, however stopping attacks or the frictions affects by itself is not based on tier, its pure friction. Meaning he might be 1-1 and the opponent might be 0-2 but if that 0-2 could be stopped by the friction induced by our 1-1. Because tier has no real factor in determining the effectiveness of the friction, it’s just there to determine how strong it is over a given radius, and also it is the factor which determines how long heavy use of the skill could be generally sustained.

It can be boiled down, to as simple as the control and application of the concept of friction onto supernatural entities and energy sources. Meaning he can cause raw energy to generate heat, or to stop raw energy within what would be consider reasonable for the energy expenditure and his general tier. It’s not almighty and it’s not impregnable. It is merely using a concept which causes forces to have to slow down, stop or work harder or even get traction, and applying it to in this case spiritual energy, so it might be interesting in concept but in practice its merely controlling variables the same way a kinetic user might, but instead of the potential force, its manipulating the friction between objects.

[Note this technique is limited by what would be possible for his tier, as tier reflects the magnitude/Distance and sustainability while the skill itself works more on a physical basis. ]

» Release Phrase: “Ignition Snap: May the world burn: “

» Shikai Appearance: Nothing Changes About his physical appearance, In fact the only thing that changes is that his gloves seem to change, and instead of being merely gloves they seem to have a thin membrane across his entire body, made of the same rather weird surface as seen in the original zan.

» Shikai Abilities:

+Friction Hands On Amplfication: His Peculiar Shikai Ability has to do with the capacity to greatly increase the power of his friction amplification when using his hands as the direct point of contact. As when he’s using the air or any other objects as the point of contact he’s having to expend energy and it weakens it due to the distance between him and the focal point of his friction. On the other hand, if he’s directly using his hands or coming in contact with it, this shikai ability allows him to in essence use his powers in a vastly more potent way then it would have been if he’d say have used the ground or the air itself. Because if he’s coming in direct contact then he’s able to directly exert the ability on the object without any “middle man” and because of that he not only expends less energy, but since he’s a hell of a lot closer than in any other situation it means that because its closer It’s going to be vastly more potent than previously.

However being closer runs more risks for example because he’s directly contacting the object his friction is affecting he’s going to depending on how powerful it is take greater damage then if he was say using the wind as a medium. So this hands on amplification is a double edged sword, vastly increasing the potency; at the price of risking bodily harm to do it. Which is why the ability itself is going to be potent since unlike if he was just standing there this ability means he’d have to get again in harm’s way to be able to execute or pull it off properly. Although if he’s using this type of friction it means that if he say caught the punch, the opponent would probably feel a great deal of heat and possibly cause burns. That’s the other thing happening, every time he uses it the heat generates comes off and affects both him and the object, so say he caught something extremely powerful such as stopping a object thrown at 1000 mph , then he may stop it. But all that energy is going to cause enough heat that its probably either going to burn him, or melt through the object that just was effected.

So Friction contact directly with any part of his body is going to generate heat as the byproduct of the friction enacting on the object it’s trying to stop. Which is why it is also considered to be heating up and causing extreme – Temperature or flame based damage without actually well using flames. This is why this can also be used in combat such as if he punches someone, using this he could very well be able to cause not only force damage, but a hard connection and on top of that extreme heat to the point of impact due to this Friction Hands On Amplification. Now, it’s not using extreme power, nor is it using ungodly energy; it’s basically a trade-off technique, he puts himself in the direct line of fire, and his ability becomes more potent. This is why he’s more likely to stop an attack if he directly touches it, then if he used the air. At the same time, he’s more likely to be injured because he’s directly touching it, rather than using another “Distanced” point of contact to generate the friction.

Total all that up, and you see that, yes it gives him a lot of potential. At the same time it can be considered reckless, dangerous and incompetent to use. For this reason it’s a give and take situation, again though this is in consideration to the force acting upon the object, and further to the point then that. It’s not infallible since its based on both tier and his own stats. Which means if an opponent is absurdly stronger then him over all they would have more of a chance getting through , then someone of the same level. However that isn’t saying that person who’s stronger then him would be able to cause max damage, while it may hit him it might be weaker because it’s been forcibly going up against the friction for an extended period of time, in this way its not perfect and its not invincible but it’s not a pushover either.

+Combustion: In Shikai Azuma’s friction allows something that is known as combustion, or the capacity to cause the environment in a reasonable distance to burst into flames. This is because it has ultimately expanded upon the capacity that was present in Azuma’s Base State. Meaning that while he could create flames rather well now the flames that are present will literally spread out over a wider radius and have greater control and heat. Such as previously he could just cause shit to blow up, however with combustion he can control things created directly from his friction to a certain degree, given he manipulates friction fluidly it shouldn’t be a stretch to say if its created from his abilities he should have a margin of control over it in some way shape or form. So if he created friction in the ground and forced it up, he could after causing the heat build up to hit the point of combustion for a solid pillar of flame to come up and possibly then direct it to shoot off in a different direction. In this way he could possibly have caused the flames to either have redirected or just have it smash into the ground.

Now Because this isn’t normal fire and its generated by friction , it should be known that while water might put it out, it may just combust as well because its generating friction between the substance even liquid and then causing it to heat up beyond the point that it could become a solid liquid or a gas, and instead it would become a explosion of raw fire, but that’s how his combustion works, it takes friction and causes it to increase to the point that heat is generated and that heat is enough that it ignites the compound and then you have flames. Because Azuma can create this fire it can also be used in another way as instead of a physical “Flame” this combustion can create heat by combusting spiritual particles at the cost of a equivalent or common sense drain of energy to do so. Like if he combusts Energy that’s in the air, since energy won’t turn into flames it would instead become immense heat.

From this stems the fact that he can use this as a means of defense since if he super heats the particles around him by causing friction between the atoms it means that if you threw say a massive rock at him, it might cause him to take a hit in his energy reserves but the rock itself could quite literally either incinerate, spontaneously combust, or even turn to liquid and then explode outwards. So this heat itself and the flames are both things which are generally created by using the friction between objects much like his contact can allow him to cause severe burns, this can be used at a distance to cause flames fire, and other kinds of heat based or combustion based things to occur.

In Summary, his friction is generating enough heat (a byproduct) that the atom will combust into a flame which then is being manipulated, so this is how he can create fire flames, immense heat, and other like-wise things from common everyday substances like oxygen, the ground, a vase, a cup of water. Simple things yet when applied in battle this could mean that depending on his tier level the effects could span an extremely wide area, or maybe just a marginally large area, though those facts depend on again energy level, and tier level because these things affect the over-all level of performance that they can achieve. Or in this case that, Azuma Can Achieve.

[Note These flames are formed by causing combustion, so to sustain these it will take oxygen or energy, therefor to put out these flames, it is easiest to just deprive them of oxygen. ]

+Friction Body Barrier: Not exactly “Defense” Friction Body Barrier takes a concept that is pretty basic, friction is the force generated from two objects moving against each other, the harder the move the more friction they generate. So in this way his body in Shikai can apply this to the skin and even internally to generate a kind of “Indirect Barrier” Such as because friction can hold stuff together due to the force of the objects which are in contact, this means that the skin is behaving the same way. For example try to lob off an arm, the contact point might go clean through normally but the immense amount of friction in his body is not to be taken lightly. Which is why this isn’t even durability either , it’s that from the moment you cut into the body, the immense amount of friction is going to slow down and even stop attacks outright. Sure you will get a cut off, but it wouldn’t be near as deep or lethal as it would be for a normal person.

So this means that he’s not defending he’s just applying his friction concept on a compact and extremely focused area meaning that the friction becomes great enough that it can be used as a barrier of sorts. It’s not perfect but it does make it harder to damage him, such as if he’s using this to defend he could block an equal tier from the friction induced by their attack, not by his defense. The problem is this can be overwhelmed if either he’s low on energy because this barrier when activated does drain a considerable sum, which is why if you wail on him with lethal hits every turn for around 5 turns or 10 turns it would begin to show such as fatigue and just plain loss of stamina and slowed reaction time, would be things that probably should be expected because of the force and the fact that it is going to be more likely the case then not having worn down his own skin and defenses as well.

Initially though if it’s just minor attacks this indirect mean of defense is able to stop attacks a decent amount of the time. What is important is to understand though this isn’t defense so blunt force or compact damage such as whacking him can in some situations cause equivalent damage to what the cut would have initially caused. Which means that it’s not that he became impregnable or anything it’s just that his ability is making is a decent amount harder to actually damage him, by slowing down or stopping and overwhelming attacks that break the skin, so think of it like a self-defense mechanism its defending him when it breaks the skin. Though the price for that edge is that it will burn through his energy reserves like there’s no tomorrow since again its a lot of friction being generated.

In Result to that, damage also causes spewing flames to erupt from the impact zone, because all that friction is going to have to go somewhere. Which is why the outlet is that its vented out of the body into the molecules in the air, or that are in contact with the outside of his skin, heating them to the generalized point of combustion. So this ability is based off the principles of his friction and allowing them to be used within the body to reduce the likely hood of damage without really making him that much heavier.

» Bankai Appearance: In bankai he retains the previous visible features of his shikai. But azuma has something different too, which would be when in the state of bankai he gains a sword which is around the size of a old executioners blade. This sword is a double handed grip but what’s interesting is that the blade itself seems to be entirely dull, there is no “Cutting Edge” On it at all, instead the blade has a super rough surface which draws and creates large amounts of friction when being swung or in common situations. Which is why you could call it the “Combustion Blade” Hence as when it strikes an object it can cause combustion due to the friction generated, this is why the appearance of his bankai is a merged and addition from his shikai, and isn’t typically what you would call a “Canon” Or normal type of weapon, due to its lack of again a blade, and the fact it looks more like a huge amount of sandpaper then it would an actual blade. From these facts it could be assumed that the blade itself isn’t primarily about focus or danger.

However the blade is durable and is made specifically as a Defense- Type Zanpakutō blade. Meaning in terms of defense It is much harder to break then that of the normal Zanpakutō. This is seen in azuma’s case because the weird weapon has an obvious heft to it, and has particularly rough striking edges perfect for maximizing the friction of an attack in a heart-Beat, so all in all the weapon itself is molded to fit perfectly in sync with his friction based abilities.

» Bankai Abilities:

+ Friction Edge: Azuma’s bankai blade when swung generates friction on larger levels then it was in shikai or in base state. So if he swings the blade and strikes someone it won’t deal crushing damage, but it will deal combustion or heat based damage because the blade itself is build off of the concept of being a superb friction generating tool. If the blade is swung into a wall, the friction can cause explosion to happen, such as the heat and sudden spark overwhelming the wall itself and causing it to vaporize. Although it’s not as power as one might think it is. The fact is that the Friction Edge, is using the blade itself as an extension of his own body. In many ways one might consider this the “Upgraded” Version of his Contact Amplification from shikai, but instead of it being directly with his hands or body the blade becomes another surface that it can be used on.

More than a mere edge though this friction itself can be used in many ways. Such as stopping attacks within reason , as long as ample energy reserves are present in Azuma. Although again like many of the other techniques its not going to be Solely based on tier, tier is the deciding factor of longevity, as the stronger an attack is the more energy it will take to generate the needed friction to stop it. There is an exception to this though, which is when the tier gap is immense the method of stopping via friction edge can be rendered useless. Like this doesn’t stop every single attack or burst through every object it comes across, instead while say an attack may be too strong to completely block, it will at the very least reduce the damage that is being taken by a margin. So the combination of the sword with friction can give him reach and still a potency that is needed in the middle of battle.

Friction edge has some upgraded features though, such as by using the air it can transfer heat and fire in an arc or even as a shockwave across the ground, depending on the striking point. As there is friction in the air itself this allows for a ranged attack of Friction-Based Fire, something that was touched upon and explained in depth in shikai. All this is doing is that its allowing the flames themselves to be altered based on what is needed, for example the friction based flames could be extremely hot but focused in a very selective radius. Or they might not be extremely hot, but the radius they are focused in may be larger distance wise then if the flames had been extremely hot. This is why Friction edge itself transfers friction along the edge of the blade and generates many different effects , such as stopping, ripping, tearing, burning, heat, fire. Sparks. All of these can be done with friction which is why they can be done using the friction edge ability.

In summary, friction edge is something that is taking and putting together previous abilities that have been explained in detail in base or shikai. It’s adding in more versatility and allowing it to become greatly augmented that’s to the ascended state that is naturally considered to be a Bankai; Also it is not invincible and can be exploited , however by using contact points, or even the wind itself it becomes clear that friction edge has not only a decent amount of uses, but it also at the same time is going to have a slight drain of energy per use. Think of it as both a passive and an active, the ability never turns off unless energy reserves are depleted but the product is something that can be considered an active affect, such as shockwaves, flame’s and stopping objects.

+Speed/Traction Induction: Azuma in his bankai state has an extremely heightened level of speed that is hard to touch upon even if using his friction in his other states. This speed comes from the heightened traction he has obtained and then further honed upon Ascending to this state of power. In this case it means that his feet when they touch down have induced traction or immense levels of friction to the point that kick off generally causes a flaming trail or explosions to occur at the pads of his feet when they come in contact with a physical or even the wind. This is a unique skill which focuses and builds off of the previous skills given in his shikai and base state, to achieve the result of being able to move at speeds which might make a person think he was teleporting. In reality that statement would be far from the truth, because traction is what gives you better speed. The greater the traction that you possess the faster and quicker you are able to move, and dodge at. Think of it like sprinters, they use running spikes because they allow the runner to get greater traction and thus run faster.

If you wanted to get a feel for it, a good example would be comparing his normal Max Speed and his Bankai Max Speed, because of the traction increase his bankai top speed would be vastly superior to any speed reached in shikai, as while the other abilities touched upon in base state and Shikai would allow azuma to do roughly the same thing. These skills are not actually specifically for his speed and traction; on the other hand the Skill learned in Bankai state is actually meant to do those things. Which leads to the means of energy distribution and even application being far greater than it would if he was using one of his general skills; think of it as a specialist versus a generalist. Our generalist can do more but our specialist can do a precision field with greater skill and ability then our generalist could. Principles roughly the same here, specific skills outrank general skills so the speed/Traction Induction is giving far better results and draining less than it would take for the general skill to achieve the same results.

Don’t think this is all about speed though, while it might drain slight amounts of energy this works with foot techniques and combat rather effectively. Because better traction doesn’t only give a person superior acceleration it gives a person better handling, turning, and stopping as well as being able to move on more surfaces then someone with less traction. So this also means even at max speed Azuma can not only change direction in moments, but he can stop as fast as he accelerates which means Abruptly and within a split second. That is thanks to the fact that friction both can be used to increase force behind movements or stop force behind movements by applying equal force to the contact point in the opposite direction. Such as if he was running max speed and stopped with his feet on the ground, the ground would be the contact point in use. That however is just the basic way this not only works but it is functioning on a smaller level.

Heat is another variable that should be understood, as these steps due to the heightened amount of friction on specific pin-point locations, would make it so that instead of a mere small amount of heat, contact with Azuma’s feet generates raging flames, or even has heat enough that once he gets going, he might have the potential to melt down steel, rocks or even precious gemstone if his foot came into contact with it. That though is the main reason why this technique makes him formidable, it not only means he’s harder to keep up with then before. It also means that he’s that much more of a threat because if he kicks you and your defense isn’t really the best; you could be facing anything from severe burns, to the point of contact turning to ash or rather possibly even spontaneously combusting in the time it takes one to blink. Thankfully because of this heat it becomes easy to see his movements, as while between movements he can be fast enough that he seems to vanish. Contact is different though, you can track the bursts of melting ground, heat, or flames every time he feet come in contact with the ground, as the friction is “Igniting “ The ground.

In Summary, this ability or rather “Passive” is building upon previously seen skills but adding a twist to them, by making the concept specific to a certain aspect, this case its speed. Then adding some bite behind the ability itself by using the immense speed boost to also generate something usable in combat, which would be the heat aspect of it. As to burning or combusting it depends on rather defense and even things like tier gap, such as he’d have a easier time igniting someone of equal tier range (like if hes 0-5, and they are 1-1 or 0-4) Even then though the “Burning” Phenomena isn’t common and only happens really when max speed has been reached and the contact point is brief. Further though Combustion isn’t common for another reason Spiritual Entities will have more resistance to the combustion then NPC’S or The environment, they might get burns and it might hurt like hell. But the technique isn’t all mighty the longevity is based on tier, so the strength is in ratio to what’s either strong for the tier, or accurate for the tier. As to those two criteria, they are to be met by using common sense. Though that is the full explanation of Azuma’s Speed Boost/Traction Induction for bankai.

[Note, this is utilizing the example found originally in our base abilities, see the explanation into friction; It is using that force which keeps the surface and the contact point from loosing grip of one another and then applies that much like how a sprinter uses spikes on a track to run faster; that grip will be used to greatly amplify the speed. Hence why in bankai he gets this "Speed" Boost. ]

+Friction Electricity Generation/Manipulation: Azuma has the latent ability to generate electricity through friction, Because when heat is generated against another surface it allows static to be created. This static is increased exponentially then over the contact of duration, such as if he snapped he could have the potential to generate an electrical surge. That concept is put into play here by taking the surge and then manipulating it so that it becomes a rather immense or strong electrical impulse. Say for example he strikes his Friction edge across the ground, the heat generated can be used to then create electricity on a decent scale, the size and power of the electricity often depends on the situation and how it is being used. Thankfully though this means that in a bankai state his secondary weapon is not only the flames or heat generated by friction , it is the electricity generated by friction and heat working together generally side by side.

In this case though it stems beyond regular generation, as he is enabled to control manipulate and distort general electrical currents by using this quick method of generating electricity. The control over it is vague at times but, he is able to through asserting his knowledge and through the monsuta system which was merged in around the time the bankai came to light, that it would have generated the capacity to understand and to over all generate knowledge based on the fields given. Such as he is enabled to focus the electricity into weapons shapes, or even cause polarity changes within reason. However it is based on tier like anything else, its going to be in ratio or equivalence to the amount of power he has, as such a 0-2 using this skill would pack more power then if he was around 1-1. The concept is simple, friction is used with heat to generate electricity electricity then can be manipulated when needed in general or specific situations. It isn’t precisely just about that though, it works with the friction to also allow feats like magnetizing metal and causing it to fly forward.

Actually Electricity manipulation extends to magnetism as well, being able to take and warp the electric fields of atoms, or even metallic objects to give a ability akin to “Kinetic Manipulation” This can be seen in throwing metal beams, or even causing houses to rip up from the ground and randomly to begin floating. These things are not really hard when the power itself is applied properly. But that is really the general gist of what he is able to do when it comes to electricity generation and manipulation. Though the quality of electricity is going to be stronger then the quantity which is why it should be noted the electricity runs in terra-watts at times depending on the energy being exuded. Particularly because in Bankai his energy levels and friction augmentations are strong enough to support that level of electricity; So simply there is a great amount of electricity surging through simple snaps which make it so that even that mere snap may have enough electricity to fry a system or cause wires to melt, even if they are made particularly to transfer electricity.

From there you get Electricity gathering, and grouping. By using the electricity generated by friction it means that he can “Attract” more electricity from the air, and atoms themselves, given he has the option of using the wind itself as an electric generator when things really do hit the fan. In this way though he is enabled to throw up, electrical fields, or even cause rocks or the ground to float depending on the amount of power that’s being put into it. It should be noted however this ability isn’t really immensely powerful it is based off of the strength of his friction and the previous abilities which are already in use. Which is why primarily it has slight energy drain for each use, not to mention due to the fact it has a kind of Over-loading vibe using too much might become straining after prolonged use (5+ turns of 70% output) Because he isn’t a pure electric type.

In Summary, Electricity is generated from the Friction and heat combined, through static. Static itself then can be manipulated to draw in more electrons from the surround air, which is then in turn converted into electricity which can be used and manipulated fluidly in attacks. This system is basically using a ripple effect, turning the product of one thing into a bigger product which is then used. In this way even a slight amount of friction and heat is enabled to generate large amounts of electricity. Like everything though it has its limits, and is generally kept within what would be reasonable for tier level of Azuma himself. All in all though that is the Run down of his final bankai ability.

[note As to the middle man here, it is contact points, using friction and the air itself such as the magnetic fields found there, he is able to generate energy, A simple way to stop this would be to merely Do something like, remove the magnetic fields running in the earths atmosphere naturally, however secondary substances , such as a magnet; can be used to kick start this process, however after the Initial spark has been created, after that the electricity first generated will be used to compensate and pull in electrons to continually manipulate and increase the amount of electricity present. ]

Inner Hollow & Mask

» Inner Hollow Description: The Inner Hollow Called Shadows Light, has a peculiar appearance. It is a primitive being with No facial features other than its mask, however when the hollows mouth opens that mask splits in half to show a razor back row of teeth which gleam wickedly in the light. This is the mask which generally speaking for the hollow itself tends to have also a devilish look to it, with horns on the top of its head, and a tail which sways Too and fro with a kind of strange tranquility to it. However the most notable thing would be the combination of all these features which gives it a strange and kind of creepy feel to it. With the plain base features it has and its moderate height being around 6 feet tall, leaves very little discussion into if its humanoid or not, being that it looks perfectly humanoid due to its body shape, the fact it stands on two legs, and finally the fact

that it has a kind of feel to it which is not generally seen. Some call this feeling anxiety others call it a aura of evil but no matter how you look at it the vibe itself doesn’t precisely have anything “Definable “ About it, it is just how it both acts and how it also behaves.

» Inner Hollow Personality:

+ Beast Of Habit The hollow itself doesn’t have a straight forward personality, it is almost like a beast on first encounter. As the hollow believes in strength, and survival it is undoubtedly a beast which falls into the category of habit. Most of the time this translates to the hollow itself not wanting to fight with others nor serve others. Like most primitive beings a display of strength is what dictated its actions, if you where stronger then it the hollow would ultimately come to respect you. As it did with page when they fought in the inner world for control that was around when the hollow gained respect for Azuma and because of that the hollow also has shown that it also is the kind of being that knows when its beaten as was seen, when Azuma himself beat the hollow the first time causing it to decide to listen and help him out. Which is why this hollow itself isn’t always going to be what you might consider to be “Fiercely loyal” or dedicated but if you keep your strength up the beast of habit will obey you.

The hollow is no ones friend, because it does not comprehend what friend or enemy means, there is just strength those that are weak are weak, and those that are strong, can continue to get stronger still. That is the main thing that is important to the hollow it isn’t perhaps the intentions of a person it’s the fact that the person has the power to back it up, and make what ever they want to do get done. That is the fact that drives the hollow to follow Azuma in the first place because he has the drive needed to get his stuff done in a timely. Manner. Which is something that cannot be said about everyone, if someone turns out to be weaker though or in a time of weakness it would be in this hollows nature to come in and take advantage of that and basically take over in that moment of weakness.

» Inner Hollow Powers:

+Entity Of Light: An experiment of Tora Lionus, the hollow in question was selected due to the innate properties it had. Particularly this being had displayed an ability which is known as Light Manipulation, the control change and manipulation of light on a large scale. This ability means the light filtering down from the sky, or generated from objects (Artificial Light) Is free for the hollow to control, even though the situation generally can dictate otherwise, this means that when light is involved it is almost like an Extension of this hollows body, given it has been cultivated and trained by Tora Lionus to the point that it had been able to intergrade this type of skill into most of its standard techniques. Making it something that is easy and very potent, such as light contract or the control over how much light is in the general area of a battle field over the radius the hollow can control. That means that the hollow himself could make the sun glaring or could make it very dim or black it out all-together in a given radius, yet this is only one of the uses of the Entity Of Light due to the diversity of light itself.

Another thing that can be done is the manipulation or Control over what someone see’s depending on their mental deduction, such as if its higher then Azuma or the hollows own it becomes possible to detect changes for those lower though it tends to generate unless something is specifically there to combat it , visual illusions such as by restructuring the light that is filtering in the opponents eyes and changing the light’s frequency and the colors themselves it means that they could be trapped in a mountainous region, even if they are standing on flat land or in the middle of a street. Because the light can be manipulated to the will of the hollow it means it will bend, to form the illusion of what-ever is in its cruel twisted and fucked up mind. This means that nothing is sacred, any image can be created at any time, through this means of light wave manipulation. The only thing that should be noticed is that doing so creates steady drain on the hollow, meaning its reserves dictate how long the illusion can last.

Illusions are not the only thing, but they also are not infallible, they can as explained above be taken down from those that are relying on other things then their eyes or by those that have higher mental deduction then Azuma or the hollow. Moving on from illusions though The Entity Of Light Ability, Also means that the hollow can control the focus of light, much like when you take a magnifying glass out in a sunny day, by focusing the light you can burn through ants or burn holes in things. The Hollow can do that on a large scale thanks to light manipulation. Such as he could use the light and focus it in a general radius to create a destructive Beam, which would have the ability to burn through walls and even metal or steel. Because of the fact that focused light is potent depending on its focus, and essentially lazars are just highly condensed light waves, you could say that all the hollow is doing is creating lazars using his control over light , this is one of the other functions of Entity Of Light, the ability to freely create and control Lazars, these lazars can melt through gemstone without much problem and even defense, however it should be known lazars take as much energy drain to create as a regular Cero would in normal levels.

Light has many fundamental functions but this is examples of what those functions are , in summary Entity Of Light for this hollow means that the Whole Essence of light is able to be summoned at its beck and call without problem. It is not perfect or infallible but it means that in terms of controlling bending and changing the light frequency and direction of the light around it the hollow is able to do these things easily. Further though this means that the Hollow itself has a secondary ability where light is concerned, one that is not focusing on the control of light but the power of light, such as the light spectrum, below will be the explanation of that power.

+Light’s Spectrum: The hollow holds the capacity to change its power based on the color it uses, because in light the fundamental rule is that depending on the color it can be stronger or weaker as certain colors have stronger and well better focused wave lengths. Because of that certain colors take more energy to use, than others, and this also means that certain colors are vastly stronger than others. This is one of the reasons though that the hollow itself is potent and dangerous the ability to change freely between the color spectrum to vary its power, is one of the latent ability that the hollow had also cultivated by Tora Lionus when it was being modified and created. Further though this means that the control over these Wave Lengths is the deciding factor in the amount of Energy Drain, as it goes from light energy drain to heavy energy drain, as the colors increase in power the drain goes up steadily too, below is the colors and what they do.

-Purple: [Light Energy Use] The Purple light is on the 400 mark of the spectrum and because of it this color of light is the weakest and takes the least amount of energy to use. Which is why Purple Light is “Light Energy Use” , since the absence of intensity transfers over. When using purple light it has strength to burn through normal buildings without much problem and has enough strength to cause normal defenses to have trouble or when used properly to gain Intense burns , depending on the situation. However it is also the easiest to stop given it has about enough power in itself to only burn things that are about at the level of steel, in terms of power it would be like a normal energy attack without much power behind it. Meaning that it has poor penetrative skills and poor power behind it, making it not precisely the skill which is most in use, in fact if used at all this is generally thought of as the weakest or the warm up energy. On the flip side he can use this light level the longest generally he could use this an entire fight without tapping too far into his energy reserves.

-Blue Light: [Slightly Moderate Energy Use] Blue light is more on the 450 mark in the light spectrum, this light can be used to burn through steel and buildings fairly easy. It has decent destructive power and also can be used to destroy or generate heat hot enough to vaporize the air if needed. For this reason this light is more used in normal battle then the Purple Light is, That being said though it still is fairly weak, lacking the power to penetrate like maybe green light or another light might possess. It can however be used for long durations of time with relatively small drain, given the fact this is more a “Long Term Use” Level of light, meaning while it lacks the power of the higher colors it does have the duration that the higher colors lack. Which is why this level of light commonly can be used in battle and is considered the real color where “Lazars” become usable such as the lazars generated by blue light will be something that should be considered dangerous given they can burn through the ground and even at times do things like vaporize water in the radius of the beam or even do something like cutting through thick concrete walls without a problem due to tis light level. This however is the Blue Light Frequency.

- Ice Blue Light: [Border Line Moderate Energy Use] Ice Blue light is just before green , and is a more serious color of light. It has the strength to burn through gemstone and even thick armor like the kind seen on tanks, As such though this level of light also can be used to “Cut” through objects while the blue and purple can burn lines through them , this level of light can be focused into thin “Blades” and then used literally as an offensive weapon that gets into the level of being able to burn things on the molecular level. Due to this though the level of light itself gets into the range where he has to focus, mirrors no longer can be used against the light either due to the innate heat it builds up, this kind of light is considered “The Non Reflecting Zone’s” start, as when it hits reflective objects most of them Besides Diamond will be burnt through indiscriminately and without really any problem what so ever, Consider this on the level of a normal cero given this is around where the light itself can have lasting effects on the environment such as if it cuts a normal person arm or even someone who can regenerate the regeneration time of the cut part will take a turn longer, it will not bleed but because it cauterizes the very cells themselves it will take longer in terms of time to regenerate as first the body will need to be able to combat and then cope with the cauterized Cells first.

-Green Light: [Moderate Energy Use This is in the 500 Range, Green light is where things begin to get serious, as this light has enough strength to melt through diamond and Seki –Seki without much of a problem. This Light though takes decent energy drain to use due to how strong it is, such as to use it each turn in use is like draining 2 cero’s worth of energy. Or the Equivalent of firing two fully charged cero’s, so as you might think this does drain more energy than the previous light. However this also gets into the realm of “Spontaneous Combustion” Or Igniting the object is burns through, due to the flash of immense heat itself this light wave length is able to say if it burns through the ground it would be able to cause flames to rise up behind it just because it would heat up the atoms around it enough to generate burns or flames themselves. This is why though this light if it inflicts injury it becomes almost like a “Contact Fire” meaning what would be considered a “Severe Wound” if inflicted by green light will also catch fire and cause further damage from the light generated burns on top of the Cellular Cauterization that is already going on, However because of this strength this energy cannot be used in prolonged battles, such as if its used a whole battle The hollow would be Immensely Fatigued and probably not be able to fight again just after but that is the range of green light.

-Yellow Light: [Slightly High Energy Use] the 550 range is yellow light, this is the color that flames burn generally. But at this level the heat becomes enough that from beams generated it can cause damage to the hollow itself, generating enough pain to if used over 10 turns to burn completely through the skin and cause 2nd -3rd degree burns. Further though this light color is strong enough that using it is equivalent to using a Gran Rey cero’s Worth of Energy, every turn, meaning that the energy drain on this is pretty intense due to the power it has. Instead of cutting this one punches clean holes in objects completely incinerating the cells it comes in contact with, as such this Light has power to completely burn through defenses of a Tier Lower then the host and can do so without much problem at all .Because Yellow light takes a good amount of energy to use It means that it also takes more focus, such as when using this light he cannot create illusions freely and there is a limit he can create up to 15 lazars in this state and that would be the equivalent of draining 3 gran rey cero’s worth of energy each turn at max. This is the reason that Yellow light is considered to be one of the dangerous light levels, as while it is not duration it has the power to cause beyond spontaneous burns, it can cause Atomic Erasure, on the particle level to The environment, such as if it hits steel it won’t melt a hole in the steel it will actually Erase a hole in that steel, like it would incinerate and erase the Atoms and particles it comes in contact with due to how strong this light is. Because of that though Yellow Light itself is the highest level of light he can use Freely, anything above yellow light needs Permission from the monsuta’s 2nd in command or 1st in command, unless it’s a situation that he has no other choice but to use it to protect his own life.

*Permission Needed From 2nd Or 1st In Command Of Monsuta to use – Orange Light:[High Energy Use] Orange light is something beyond yellow light, using it causes physical harm on the user over prolonged use. This light is akin to the 2nd strongest Light Spectrum out there and sits at 600 and above, when in use this creates lazars that use enough energy to fire 3 Cero Oscuras’s Per turn, only 5 lazars can be sustained over a period of 8 turns total , due to the amount of power it holds though ,it doesn’t burn any longer. This level of light just punches through objects as it is around the temperature and power of plasma in its raw state. Thanks to this power though Orange Light can punch through defenses of Equal Power level without problem on spiritual or Physical levels, as Orange light itself is not only strong but it is damaging, causing more than merely erasing the molecular compounds it comes in contact with, if it say hit the ground it would erase the area it hit clearly and cause for the ground around it to explode from just the amount of heat that it would generate. Such is the reason that this light is not only dangerous but it is extremely powerful. Further though this light causes burns on the arms when in use , such as if used for 8 turns it could burn the skin off and start burning through the muscles of his arms without much problem. Finally though because of that the Orange light itself is considered a last resort and rarely will ever be seen in battle.

*WAR TIME OR AUTHORIZATION FROM BOTH COMMANDERS IN MONSUTA NEEDED TO USE -Pink Light:[Extreme Energy Use] Pink Light, is something that will not be used outside of war time situation, To even use this light requires the Full might of the Monsuta’s Energy network itself to be activated because without that network the amount of energy being drained would be enough that he couldn’t even use this for more than four turns with 4 beams total. Even with the network if he uses this level of light more than 3 turns severe injury occurs to his body, such as burns appear down to his very bone, because of the fact that This level of light doesn’t just erase the molecular structure, it almost seems to delete it from how hot it is, for example at this level of the light spectrum the hollows lazars would have enough power to burn a hole completely through a mountain without much of a problem. Mainly because of the fact that the lazar itself would have enough power to punch through defenses of a tier higher then him without any problem what so ever. Though because of this each turn its in use, it drains the equivalent of 10 Cero Oscuras’s , Meaning is drains an absurd amount of energy Every Time It’s In use and requires the full attention from the hollow to even use, given that this is the equivalent of the ultimate level of light, that the hollow itself can use, its power and heat are nearing absolute Zero , as in the heat is great enough that It can cause everything within 40 feet outside of the Beam itself to begin breaking down on the atomic level, Atoms become unable to retain Electrons , stuff like that. Thankfully though this does not happen to player characters, though at this level indirect hits such as if you are within 40 feet would cause most combatants to sustain Moderate or severe burns. It takes a lot to deflect but it is not impossible, the price for using it though is that if used over 6 turn it can actually cause the hollow’s host to combust internally and need to be taken to Severe Care.

+Light And Radiation: Light and radiation go hand and hand. Which is why this hollow being directly an experiment of tora lionus is able to control varying degree’s of radiation with little to no problem . Such as indirectly using light he can generate Gamma Rays which are something that is highly destructive. This ability Stems from the fact that Light carries radiation in its wave lengths, Gamma, Alpha, Beta, Micro, Radio, Ultraviolet. All of these things are a form of Radiation which stems from the light itself, such as Gamma Is where the wave lengths are stronger then when it is Microwaves. Using this concept though it means that Radiation and nuclear energy such as the use of Energy that is comparable to nuclear energy is not that hard to use, actually because the Light generates when in maximum power potent Gamma and Radiation in general you could say that its utilizing the same concept as the Sun’s rays which can cause extreme damage to the skin if they aren’t taken in with care, also like with gamma radiation Or other radiation it has effects such as it can cause people to combust, or yes the Cliché Their face melts off can be done at higher levels if need be.

However Radiation doesn’t mean a all mighty power, it is much like the sun’s rays it doesn’t cause things to get effected right away, rather in actuality it does these things over a duration , causing long prolonged damage rather then up front right away damage which is going to cause say, someone to die from radiation. That cannot be done, because no matter how strong the light is, the radiation aspect will not be condensed enough that it would literally cause instant death, instead it can however cause sun-burns if someone is hit for a prolonged duration by the Light itself, much like being in the sun too long, if you are hit constantly for 2 or 3 turns or are within 40 feet of the lazars or light attacks, you can get minor sunburns, 4-5 turns? Moderate sun-burns. 6+ turns? You could get major sun burns which would be equivalent to third degree burns when the light techniques themselves are at maximum power. Which means that the more power that’s being released the stronger the radiation that’s being released. Primarily because of this the Radiation itself carries itself for the hollow in waves, instead of natural Increments which is primarily why the hollow itself can do some interesting things.

Adding on though, Radiation does something else passively it can generate heat when its combined with light, as the suns waves heat up our planet the Light waves that are present can cause heat to rise proportionately with the level of power being used by the hollow itself. Meaning that in a mile radius the temperature rises greatly the more light is being used , such as if he’s using the equivalent of 25% of his full power the temperature could be a hundred degree’s F, hotter than normally such as if it was 80 then it might be 180 F now if the hollow was using immense levels of light it could be more than that, however it should be known that despite having extreme resistance to heat even the hollow itself will after 20 turns of above 50% of his max light power possibly endure burns or even “Sun Burns” of moderate to severe severity due to the fact that the hollow itself isn’t immune to its own power, it just is very Extremely resistant to it. As such it isn’t going to be able to “Lol Negate” a power right off the bat instead it is able to “Endure” the effects of its own light fairly well without much problem.

Summarizing though ,the more power the hollow exudes in terms of its light energy the Damage and over all strength of the radation will increase in proportion to how strong or how much light-energy he is exuding at that point, meaning it isn’t something that can’t be stopped , its merely something that should be taken into account, as light itself isn’t Merely just light, it is heat , radiation and light, given those are the three aspects of light besides allowing people to see through the many colors that are diffused in the iris, This means that finally the hollow itself while able to manipulate these things by no means has perfect or infallible control over light, or even the radiation, it has its own limits like everyone else, it’s just that it takes much Much longer for the hollow to be worn down to the point that it would begin making mistakes in its light manipulation.

» Hollow Mask Appearance: Azuma’s Hollow mask isn’t something spectacular precisely but it is something interesting , given the fact it is seen in a plane white that goes over his face and extends up into horns on the top of his head. This is because the mask itself is a reflection of his hollows face, and it actually reflects itself as such in many situations. Its simplicity and the subtle fierceness that translates over from it, are the definable traits of the mask, it doesn’t have any fancy markings or any fancy colors on it, it is plain and basic, yet can be considered unique because of how plain and basic it is, as almost every mask has some kind of marking or another, his does not. It just looks like a plain unpainted mask.

Vizard Powers

» Vizard Powers:

+ Out Of This World Energy Levels/Willpower: Because of the mutations and other things like the fact he can tap into the Monsuta’s Energy Net-work his energy level is something that when in masked state is strong enough that it can cause those that are even just a tier lower then Azuma to pass out in given situations [Rare Occasions] because of the fact that his Energy is tied with his Will Power, it is a strange thing that manifested itself in the Vizard powers early on, if you have lower will-power then Azuma the effects can be almost unbearable as its both the physical pressure of it which bears down on the battle field, to the point that it visibly can alter the ground such as causing in a mile radius after putting on his mask, for the ground to either begin catching fire or Even for it to sink 2 or 3 feet. Also there is the psychological dominance that plays in from his Will-Power level , meaning if he has a master in will power, and the opponents advanced, they would feel around 50% of the full effects of his spiritual pressure, combined with his will power or “Desire” to over-Power them so that he doesn’t have to fight any further.

If someone is of the same level in will power, well they will become able to resist it and would be able to function albeit with slight strain if even just a tier lower, meaning that they would have to work around 1.5x harder then normal to function at normal fighting or just normal capacity. Which is why the Energy Levels are known to be merely “Out of this world” as they are tangibly the result of constant endurance and tampering on the monsuta’s part in the quest to create the perfect weapon which would be hard to stop and even harder to over power. So the Energy levels extend farther then how they naturally where, because both the Hollow the Zan And Azuma’s energy which are large separately are being pooled together, on top of the fact that through countless Experiments Azuma’s body was custom fit to be able to hold immense levels of energy which would be hard for a natural being to hold, for example his spiritual pressure can when released hold enough energy to blow up mountains when combined with his speed with just a swipe of the hand. Since the Spiritual Pressure is immense and his speed is high, it would generate a slicing wave which would be enough that it could rival a cero just from that swing of the hand, it honestly is something that can be considered out of this world in many regards, and is not something that should be taken lightly. Given also the fact that it is intergrading energy from the monsuta’s reserves in his masked state it means it is truly frightening.

His Energy is at the level that, despite the fact that his strength and Defense are not really anything that are amazing, that the energy when condensed can become a tangible armor which can block the equivalent of maybe two Cero Oscuras’s from someone of the same tier without taking Serious Damage. Primarily though this is because in comparison to his Bankai State his masked state is around 10x Stronger then Bankai thanks to the multiple factors that are going into it. So if he condenses his energy he can create things which would rival normal cero’s without actually using a cero in the first place, this would be something generated from energy alone, Given beyond his augmentations it would take immense amounts of energy to sustain techniques which put constant drain on the body such as “Light Manipulation” “Friction Manipulation” “ Combustion Manipulation” “ Stopping Force”, because when you put every of his skills on top of each other if he didn’t have these absurd reserves he wouldn’t last more than 6 or 5 posts tops before completely blacking out from all the energy drain that is seriously squeezing his body for every last drop.

So the energy level is not without reason, it is actually because his skills require such energy drain, such as the hollows Colored Light skills, or the manipulation of light itself , which is no easy feat due to having to harness something which uses so much energy and travels so fast in the first place, so reasonable just that alone would take a large amount of energy for prolonged duration to begin with. Also the fact that he is not a physical type and his abilities are focusing on his energy reserves may also be a reason that its large enough that it can be considered bottomless or like the horizon stretching without end. Given he can use this energy offensively in battle like creating waves of solid explosions of energy that can tear up the ground and blow holes in the clouds. Precisely because he has gone through so much to attain the power, that it would be a death wish to function even using half of his total abilities if he didn’t have this kind of Shaking and shattering level of energy. In fact even now with this level of energy running with everything he has would take the network’s energy reserves on top of the energy reserves he has from all these factors.

For this reason though He IS the monsuta’s secret weapon, as one might reason to be the secret weapon with someone like hakai and tora lionus in charge would need to have some seriously big reserves or physical power to back it up, given those two alone have immense levels of energy and are in the top 1% or so of fighters in the world. With this in mind it would make perfect sense that the energy reserves themselves again would be large enough that they would be on par with those two immense forces. Finally though being the secret weapon on top of his mutations and other things, he would have had to show a natural affinity of “Potential” In desired fields to even have been allowed to do such rigorous training in the first place, and also as shown in his history it wasn’t that he was the only experiment they went through over 1,000,000 Different subjects to find the gem that is known as Azuma. So again the energy reserves themselves would be there because many factors if not 10 or more different factors which would have generated this level of power, as the hollow itself was equivalent in fighting power to Azuma in Bankai Peak State fighting with everything he had, that is what it took to soundly beat the hollow. So it would then reason with the hollows power flowing into Azuma his energy would at least be doubled if not tripled. Add in a Network that holds immense amounts of energy , then you have the potential that Azuma Himself Has Obtained through the death-defying grasp he has on reality his will power, and the raw potential on top of the mutations, the alterations , the injections, the fact his body was cut apart and put back together so it could hold this level of energy, and because his body needs immense amounts of energy to sustain itself. Finally though because his energy is so high, he can cause those suchas if hes 0-5 and the opponents 1-2, they could be damaged by being in the vicinity of his fully powered energy, which is why masked state has to be stated to all people in the thread when used unless talked about and approved by a mod before-hand.

+ Friction Light: Azuma gains the ability from both his zan and his hollows and puts them together with his vizard powers, this is known as Friction light by utilizing friction to further heat up the radiation and the light waves themselves it allows for natural light to be used in damaging attacks. Primarily this means that light without the use of Lazars can be used like in say a flash to one side, to burn objects in a given distance like if it was used against the ground it could potentially cause the ground to set on fire, if used against water it could possibly turn water into steam .Because of how it works and even more then that how the whole thing functions it means that Beyond the skills themselves he is able to use this to even stop attacks, yes by combining light and friction control he has the ability to using a lazar stop attacks depending on how strong it is and how its being used. Such as if the opponent is using a seriously powerful attack it probably won’t be able to do something like fully stop it, but it could cause its speed to decrease or for it to veer off course or be weakened by the heat, which is why friction light itself can be used in most situations.

Beyond this friction light is using base light meaning the energy of the light is equivalent to the color Blue instead of say green or ice blue, given the fact that it doesn’t need a high light wave to do what it needs to do. The pay off for that low light and energy level is that it can be used more freely then say if it was being used with green or yellow light. Which means this friction light can be manipulated and used without much of a problem , to do things like attacking or defending, creating weapons or walls can be done as well, but every time the techniques themselves are in use, it would mean that the energy itself would be steadily drained, and because he has a massive energy increase in masked, he also will have a increased drain on his masked abilities, such as if he’s using friction light, the energy drain is enough that it would have the same limit as Orange or Pink light in terms of how long it could be used if outside of His masked state.

Further though then that it also means that the ability to use these techniques overrides some of the natural abilities such as using flash step or normal techniques like that (HOHO) sometimes becomes ineffective due to the energy drain and the fact this is proof that his body has been altered to the point that it can use such concepts like Light, and friction and combine them, which takes both a lot of strength and focus to pull off. It isn’t however able to instantly burn through someone, its power is in the fact that it has four aspects or more, which is stopping force, friction force, radiation, heat, and light, and when you put them together speed and friction radically as you would figure boosts the heat generated which is why even though the lights power is on par with only blue at max and purple normally it carries the heat of what is equivalent to the hollows green, or yellow possibly. Just from the fact that it drains considerably more energy than blue, and less then green. However the friction follows the rules shown in the zan itself meaning that just like the zans friction itself, it isn’t something that is perfect or flawless, it has holes such as the fact that using this technique itself takes both stamina and causes for the skin to slowly be burned from the combinations, despite the fact he will be able to use both hollow and zan skills it means that the longer he fights even if he isn’t taking damage from his opponents then he is going to be taking damage from himself, just due to the general strain that is being put on the body from this technique.

Summarizing this it means that this technique like everything else has weaknesses such as the fact that it isn’t perfect for either attack or defense but it can be used to basically change or alter the course of battle, and the fact that it does add on to the energy drain strain on his body, which is precisely why his masked state has such absurd levels of energy in the first place, he has like 10 skills which are draining steady amounts of energy from him per turn, and despite the fact that its probably just slight amounts of energy, all of that adds up to a pretty draining amount, hence the fact that his skill itself isn’t using the max light level on top of his max friction it is combining two lower settings to allow the ability to function without drain too much from his body. This is the true strength of friction light, beyond its assets in battle it allows the user to use it prolonged instead of just in short bursts. Meaning that it is user friendly, able to be used in duration for multiple turns at a time without having too much of a strain on the users body; it isn’t perfect though it still puts a considerable amount of strain on the body, such as in masked state his actions carry extreme consequences such as this ability even though it is using a user friendly level of power it has to be monitored because if he uses or over extends himself it still can cause conditions seen in his Light Colors, such as sun-burns on his own body, [this is part of radiation] and even burning holes in his own arms [see the light levels for that]. So all in all despite its assets it is truly something that can be a problem in battle for both him and his opponent.

+ Path Of Light: In his masked state Azuma Achieves an immense feat in speed, given he uses both his friction skills for traction and his Light skills from his hollow to increase his speed. In fact because of these two factors plus the fact his friction gets stronger the faster he goes, given there’s more velocity behind it. It would make sense that one of the things that his hollow mask state is going to boost would be speed oriented. So in comparison to out of masked state in masked state he makes his shikai speed or any speed that’s not in masked for him look slow. As while he has abilities which boost traction for pin point accuracy this speed itself is almost like he’s teleporting. The substitute for his HO-OH dilemma too, is the fact that even though this drains a slight amount of energy each turn it provides him with speed which means he can vanish in short bursts, by using his traction and applying the concept of how light travels moving almost in a zig zag pattern, he is constantly increasing his speed with ever step he takes. This means that like with his friction light it is taking his abilities and his hollow’s abilities and combining them for a better result.

It means that primarily this level of speed is seen only when his feet begin to light up, hence the name path of light. Light and friction converge around the body and shifts constantly to the point of contact providing an insane boost in his speed, without sacrificing the reaction time that is seen in his other states, allowing for circus acrobatic like stunts and mythical feints to be pulled off and executed without really much of a problem , it just becomes a matter of landing in the right position at the right time rather then what it would be for his other states which takes generally his body focusing at maximum capacity to get up to the speeds that he can go at regularly in his Masked state. So the gap itself is noticeable given in masked state he seems almost for the most part like a completely different person, it doesn’t matter if you had been faster than azuma in his bankai state, because his Vizard Mask state could be considered the first serious release of power he has by combining all he has from both hollow and shinigami sides to give a vast frightening array of abilities like this one.

Further though this skill builds off of the other Shinigami skills such as his traction control or contact friction amplification techniques, to allow for him to suddenly stop as fast as he starts and do things like go from max speed to around a fourth his max speed in under a split second. It also means that from this friction contact it boosts his traction and puts it through the roof, often when he gets serious this ability makes it so to track him you watch the path of light which is moving through the battle field, that or when he stops, he switches from high speed to moderate speed. Which is another trick to it, he isn’t “Too Fast To See” some times because to switch from high speed to low speed to high speed, will throw off the eyes which will try to adjust and make it harder to either see or to function, which is the other main or primary ability that this allows, by throwing off the opponent his unorthodox and pin point accuracy combined with immense speed will allow for his attack and defense to go through the roof in many situations.

Yet this does put strain on the body, such as he can use the max speed, for around 5 posts total in a thread the rest of the time he is alternating through low speed to high speed, to moderate speed to low speed, to moderate speed, to burst, to low again. Meaning the shifts in place are present to keep his body from breaking down, due to the immense lactic acid that would be building up in his muscles ,and the strain on his senses to keep up, as this is going to constantly assault the body, giving it a demanding physical counter which is relying on his will power and his pain tolerance to push through. Which is why despite the fact that it does have immense potential it has draw backs which balance it out making it not perfect and not infallible, just like every other technique there is an exploitable weakness, this one is to back Azuma into a corner and then force him to burst for 4 turns or so, which causes his legs to give out and for him to in essence loose his ability to move for 2 turns.

+Use Of All Skills: In his masked state he can use all of the skills ranging from hollow skills, to his zans entire skill set, because of the fact that his Vizard mask state is an accumulation of all these abilities, it would make sense that he can use the abilities from either side without a problem. They don’t get any specific boosts in strength though which is why the draw backs and descriptions already explained in his zan and his hollow should be touched or referenced when trying to figure out the way a ability works. Though because most of his abilities are draining him passively rather than per each time it is in use, it means that for the most part the draw back to using or having the ability to use all his abilities, in this state is a immense energy drain which is going to be hard to match outside of his masked state, Because of it also he hasn’t ascended to his Ressureccion state either, which is due to the harshness of the drain on his body from use of all skills.

Skill Sheet

-The Network And Summary Of Alteration-

+ Monsuta Network Up-link/Networks Will : Azuma Due to the Alterations in his body and the experiments conducted by tora lionus was uploaded and connected to the monsuta’s energy network. This feat allows for up to 50% of that energy to be utilized in event situations 25% of the networks total energy is normally able to be utilized by himself without approval from any other 3rd party, however with permission this means that if the leaders of the monsuta actually approve of it, he can use up to 100% of the energy reserves , when this happens he goes up in a tier above what he is normally considered to be. Because of this though it can be done either in war, or with permission from both heads. It must be announced though when it’s because of the fact this puts extreme strain on the body and causes dangerous levels of energy to be put into the body at any point in time which would be strong enough to as seen in the Australia war arc power multiple cities without a problem, such seen because of the amount of power that was flowing into the defense grid, he can utilize more energy then that if he has permission from both of the heads of the monsuta [Tora Lionus and Hakai Chikara]

Further then just the Net- Link up though he has access to most the information that runs through the monsuta’s Data bases because that was uploaded into his system at the same time that the energy uplink itself was Uploaded and created, meaning that for the most part if its in the network he has the ability to recall and call the data up, which is why of course for the most part he is thought to be a genius, because the fact his his mind had to be altered by lionus so it could take in the entire function of the network in terms of processing and codes accessing, the network uplink makes him the designated Default programmer, beyond Tora if he is unable to get into the situation his vast connections in the net work allows him to be the “Anti-Virus” outside of Tora. Meaning if needed he can project his consciousness into the network , vice versa is also true though, given the vast majority of what happens on a daily basis the network if taxed can over-ride the body itself and project its own data into the subconscious to use it as a extra processor such as if it was in overload.

This means that primarily the Energy and knowledge of the network is something that is both not only usable by azuma, but is the true strength behind the Secret weapon, the capacity to handle the functions of the network and further-more be able to function at max capacity under that strain is something that is only enabled from the genetic Alterations and changes in the body which have become possible by Tora lionus’s bodily alterations and changes, which is primarily why the body itself has genetic coding which is not found in normal beings, being more symbiotic or Bionic in nature the network itself has intergraded processors through the blood to allow maximum capacity of knowledge and for control over the immense power and strain of the network, such as he can broadcast his mind and will into the network, to alternate or change focus from one area of a battle to another, this can however be over-ridden by Tora Lionus or Hakai Chikara, and he has certain things excluded such as the Files of Tora Lionus and Hakai Chikara, are not present.

Finally though there is the networks will, a virtual Consciousness which is the governing body over the network specifically manifesting or flowing through Azuma’s own body, this network interface allows for in times of extreme stress for the network to Hijack his body and use it as a data refuge, with the superior processing of the gem that sprouted out of pain staking hours tora lionus took cutting up his body and altering it, means that his blood and body is just as good as the super computers and network processors which run a burden of the processing capacities in the monsuta’s information/ Energy networks. So this means that finally the processing or mental deduction of Azuma is pretty immense thanks to the general modifications which flow through the network at any given point in time, allowing for the true power of the network itself to manifest.

[B]+End Chip: In his body there is something called the “End Chip” Or Eradication Nerve Death Chip , this chip is something that is the way that if Azuma ever would defect the leader and co leader of the monsuta could enter their codes directly via a Mental link, other then this though due to the level of encryption the code itself will not activate unless its from the distinct brave wave lengths of tora lionus and Hakai Chikara, making it so that not even a hacker could trip this chip No matter what they did, using this causes all the energy of the network to surge through his nervous system and eradicate it causing his brain and body to go instantly dead, turning him in mere moments into a hollow shell.

+Bionic Body: Azuma’s body is more bionic and organic then it is original anymore due to the change of his skin and body over a long period of time it is speculated now that his body itself the dna and everything else was altered so that it can handle the functions of the network and the extreme energy that is present in the body, so that he wouldn’t die from the overload.

Background

+Part One: The Human Experiment

There is no knowledge of how Azuma truly became a shinigami . All that is known is that he was first found by Tora Lionus, possessing what would be considered absolutely frightening potential inside, something way too pass up. Tora took him in, and with Hakai’s direct permission the second in command of the monsuta went to work, all Azuma remembers is pain, raw pain as his body was altered the tears the screams of blood running black in his veins. Dying may have been better then what happened then the pain that he held inside, unable to get rid of, indeed he hadn’t really known his origins but as he lay there tests and the sting of the needle the screams of pain of misery they all had fallen into the normality of his life, but it was better infinitely better then what he had been dealing with. Hunger and starvation being chased by hollows at least here he seemed to be safe, fed and able to live in peace. That pain was nothing for him, he embraced it happily as his body was mutated his muscles changed, the bones in his body themselves seemed to become to diversify bringing out latent potential in him that he had never known existed. All he had done was grit his lips answering question and holding on, he had the single drive to survive this and see what would come next, from the pain of the laboratory that truly marked the beginning of this anomalies life, at first he would black out in pain he could handle it no it was more that his mind was unable to experience this pain.

Unable to handle it the first few months passed by in a blur , there wasn’t anything but waking pain and eternal slumber. Some times people had been afraid he had died over night, but each time his heart threatened to stop his pure will power brought it back to the surface. Gradually it seemed as his body was becoming more experimental than it was his own, he had been able to think about the pain of getting his organs modified of getting his nerves replaced and ripped out. He began to think with his mind to ignore the pain, as if it was something that was inconsequential. Even though it still made him often black out he was able to think around it, to focus on other things besides the pain of having his body subjected to so many tests that a normal human would have died from the over load. Indeed as his bones cracked under his body being modified from it growing at rates that would kill most, he had seemed to while not awaken understand everything going on, that pain kept him alive more then anything else, he held on to it.

Eventually he began to be able to open his eyes, though it wasn’t as much as before his eyes barely opened but they opened. He could see and mark time, counting the experiments that had been going out the door to a room labeled the failed projects. He counted them to pass time, he barely could see but he could make out the shapes of bodies which looked burn out from power. That hit it home to him beyond anything else, if he didn’t endure he would die, he would fail and become like the bodies that rested there. So under the threat of final demise his body seemed to unlock something inside, it adapted it further seemed to forcibly muck through the pain, the countless times his heart nearly stopped, the many times he wanted nothing more then to die. He knew nothing was more important than staying alive. Nothing held more reason, nothing was more important, he wanted to see what was going to eventually happen. So he forcibly held on to his life by the thread that it was hanging from, there wasn’t anything that he did more then forcibly surviving.

Soon after he began to be able to clearly see, he could see the muscles he had the scars which crisscrossed his body, the stitch work and even the new electrical streams flowing under his skin. The nerves had been upgraded and his entire body seemed to be different then he remembered it. His size was more around 6 feet then it was 5 feet anymore, and he felt like he had aged a million years. Finally he could hear the doctors which had been hovering over him. Their words easy to understand even though they sounded like they had been coming through a long hall way, he could hear them, just on the living side of deaths doorstep, holding on to his life.. he heard them saying.. ”It’s a miracle get Tora at once, subject BK.818 Survived and has the highest recorded vital signs and compatibility with the systems. His heart rate and brain waves seem to have stabilized and he’s beginning to become aware again. He’s able to see us, he looks like the is able to also understand what we are saying, honestly this is a surprise . . . 500 dead before him and yet he’s still fighting, get ready for stage two Initial response ready , Virtual dive is to commence shortly. “

Azuma had slowly opened his eyes and in his mind the words virtual dive stuck out like a sore thumb, he could feel the mechanics in his body which had slowly been becoming one with him over that short period of time. It was hard to explain what he was feeling but he could feel it fire in his veins as needle pricks began going through his skull and into his brain. It was a weird feeling the boiling in his veins seemed to increase and then he was on fire, electricity he could feel it actually coursing through his body as slowly a simulation space which would speed up time so he could gain the knowledge of probably thousands of years atleast until he got to the needed level, in a shorter span of time then normally would be needed to accomplish the forming of a weapon on this scale, which was why his tenacious grip on reality was thrown into cyberspace while his body was kept on life support, in a contained area to keep the effects of the experiment from killing scientists.

+Part Two: The Virtual Dive Project:

Azuma woke up now in his inner world, having because of the electricity and virtual simulation linking to his subconscious having forcibly made him enter his inner world in the first place. His eyes taking in what only could be called an endless expanse of nothing. The sky was a void black and there was only one direction that didn’t stretch on forever. A cliff which fell into the endless depths, where he felt an incomprehensible force lurking beneath the edges of darkness; a rumbling voice calling out in his heart, it shook the inner world, it shook his resolve, destroyed it and built it up better then ever, it made it stronger then ever. He didn’t want to die he wanted to do his best to survive, because that voice which was elusive which was cryptic hinted that this wasn’t the end as the rumbling voice spoke the inner world seemed to gain pressure it seemed to become focused with clarity. On the outside world there was scientists running around and screaming heat was turning the 100foot thick walls a cherry red, his body was covered in raw flame but it all held as they turned on the cooling systems.

The voice said.. Claim me, if you have the guts jump into the abyss throw away reason, and trust me I am but here I am your eternal sword, will you fight me or will you claim me LEAP INTO YOUR FUTURE MY KING

It was a no brainer Azuma gathering and looking down the depths, fire kicking up in his inner world the stoking flames of his resolve. They hadn’t burned out they had grown stronger, the ferocity of his inner zan was asserting itself those flaming waves either would incinerate him and leave him eternally in cyberspace of he would jump, azuma would have to risk death and his dream to build it up yet again. Which was why with his eyes glancing from the wall of destruction back to the abyss without end, he let out a light laugh and then his feet left the tiles he threw away life into the hope of something better, his laugh was of utter glee, his hair flowing straight up as he skipped into the mouth of his eternal youth. Falling down his hair whipping up around him he seemed to be sky diving into the end into the eternal death that he would never recover from. Then though that voice appeared besides him he could feel the pull of warmth the promise of power, and the voice commanded in its Rumbling voice. And he answered their voices roaring as one.

”AS YOU COMMAND I CALL YOUR NAME, BRING FORTH THE IGNITION OF THE WORLD, IGNITE!
Masatsu-shin!

He could feel power the vibrations of his true strength began to show, the fires they made no difference anymore because as he fell the resistance subtly increased. His voice roared and then he stopped that pull was not enough anymore his veins burned his adrenaline pumped and his eyes narrowed as he had forcibly using that hidden potential that had been found all those months ago by Tora Lionus, to force his way up, the ability not give up, the ability not to give in. He had all which was why as his veins bulged he forced his own under control the gravity turning into static as fires exploded akin to those of creation the inner world seemed to quake the true king, the ruler was coming forth as Azuma Slowly walked up the cliff his body straining against the immense pull this was his battle, and as he looked up he could see him hiding in the sky, a primordial beast of fire itself made of friction and an entity a fallen god in name and power. He could feel him beckoning him forward with his eyes, the ZAN. Masatsu-Shin had called out his challenge in a voice which threatened to seemingly over power the heavens themselves.

”COME ON STEP BY STEP COME FORTH, CLAIM ME THIS SHOULDN’T BE ANYTHING TO IF YOU ARE MINE WILL YOU SURVIVE MY KING OR WILL I LIVE UNTAMED ? FOR THE CHAPTERS OF EDEN WILL I FIND MY CHOSEN ONE? SHOW ME YOUR STRENGTH , TRAINING YOU IS POINTLESS IF YOU ARE MINE YOU WILL TAKE MY KNOWLEDGE YOU WILL TAKE MY STRENGTH AND YOU WILL COMMAND IT, PROVE TO ME I AM RIGHT ABOUT YOU BEFORE I GIVE YOU MY FULL NAME. FOR WHEN YOU MAKE IT UP YOU WILL CALL OUT WITH LUNGS OF IRON MY TRUE NAME “

Azuma grinned at the challenge he was given, as he forcefully step by step defied the horizon the pull into demise, there on the borders of life and the depths of death, he was walking forcibly with his grit with his will, he was pulling himself to the reality of his future. He was forgetting his past, his human life, his shinigami life, it was not important, he was with the adrenaline in his veins inching higher closer to his goal, that grin widening to show teeth, gleaming white teeth, his hair blowing in every direction he couldn’t help but yell out in utter elation calling his zan’s challenge with his fevered hype! The manic mood, just rose higher as his words roar out like a solid noise verbally smashing the challenge and reducing it to dust. He’d Have yelled.

INTERESTING VERY INTERESTING! I WILL TAKE YOUR NAME I WILL MAKE IT MY OWN, FOR IF YOU ARE MINE, THEN I AM COMING TO TAKE YOU BACK, HEAVEN NOR HELL STOPS MY MARCH NOW, BECAUSE YOUR KNOWLEDGE YOUR POWER BELONGS ULTIMATELY TO ME, AND ME ALONE. THERE ISN’T ANYONE ELSE ON THIS WORLD WHICH IS YOUR CHOSEN ONE, THE GARDENS OF EDEN I DON’T GIVE A FUCK FOR THEM, BUT YOU I WILL MAKE YOU MY BITCH, COME ON PARTNER LETS SETTLE THIS! COME AND GET ME

Literally he began to run his voice blazing, again he was running his heart fucking racing. The zan seemed to let out a cryptic yelp of excitement, as its words roared out simple but they had a clarity that had been lacking previously they held nothing but its own excitement having found someone that had actually taken the challenge directly.

”THIS IS WHY YOU AMUSE ME KID , YOU DO NOT MEET MY EXPECTATIONS BUT TAKE THEM A STEP FURTHER VERY WELL WITH THIS GOD LIKE BODY OF MINE I WILL FIGHT YOU

The Words of his zan set off a avalanche as it flew down towards the gap its hands roaring out as Azuma was about to meet in a head on collision, it was grit against grit nothing mattered in this world but the flames of hell and purgatory. No as the zan came down hurdling at break neck speeds Azuma let out a roar his fist jerking out the friction was forcibly being amassed the cliff itself from raw speed jerking up smashing into the zans face, but that mattered not as the cliff itself vaporized in the face of such unkept and wild untamed flames. The zan flaw down but he seemed to jerk his other hand around the skin burning off, but ultimately he was the king, which was why he forced his inner world to buckle to his feral will, Azuma made his zan turn solid and then slugged it, with the speed and friction needed to blow up everything In sight he jumped up with suprising speed his body on fire. In the outside world the flames had been getting hotter and the cooling systems had to be now powered up at twice what they had been built for.

The zan swung its massive body what looked like a tendril had smashed into Azuma’s body sending him crashing through the inner world, the tiles shattering and being rebuilt as he flipped rolling and rolling he didn’t stop though as he flipped up and landed the world behind him exploding as friction kept him from moving, he spat blood to the side as he sprinted forward the Zan Racing to meet him it was that collision that was met with an unholy explosion the sky buckled and the ground shook as he felt the massive zan’s strike on his own chest. The Zan felt the right hook, Against what was its face the force sending both crashing backwards yet both being able to use friction they stopped flames billowing from azuma’s shoes as the massive force came again its feral roar blocking out everything else, as Azuma jumped up above his counter part friction being created on his arms against the air. Then as the zan flew below him his fists smashed down the flames amplifying his speed as they had been used like rockets. That force sent his zan crashing into the floor of Azuma’s Inner world, stunning it long enough for Azuma to thrust his hand Into the flaming hide, his skin melting his muscles burning, until his hand came in contact with a hilt, then with a firm grip he dragged it out, a pillar of flame exploding from his zan as he held the sword.

Knowledge was flowing into him, While Many might need to train, he had focused his might, focused his animal will, as the fight which had taken place may have seemed short, but he had pummeled his zan into submission proving he was undoubtedly its ruler. The knowledge he forced from it flowing through him his shikai, his bankai both of them through this unconventional method became known to him, while he let out a roar a feral roar, the whole container he was in , well his body was in in the real world had vaporized half the lab taken with it, from the raw power of this Test Subject. It wasn’t easy to contain as the fires seemed to dim, the sky had exploded into flame, everything from this intial awakening was monstrous the explosion surpassed any of the other test subjects as they all had been easily contained he was the last to awaken, it had been a year in real life, equivalent to 3,000 years in his inner world, which had been spent fighting and going up that cliff, even though it didn’t seem like it that had been a harsh battle which was why as Azuma slowly pulled himself up the numbers 818 burned on his chest had been given a red glow , The number burned in turned red with blood as slowly the other 1,000,000 test subjects that survived would then be assembled all the living ones that had awakened came and then it began the Genocide war.

+Part Three: The Genocide War

” ATTENTION THIS IS AN AUTOMATED MESSAGE ALL EXPERIMENTS ARE TO BE RELEASED IN THE UNDER GROUND PIT, HERE WE WILL BEGIN THE GENOCIDE WAR, I REPEAT THIS IS AN AUTOMATED MESSAGE, ALL EXPERIMENTS ARE TO BE RELEASED IN THE UNDER GROUND PIT, I REPEAT THIS IS AN AUTOMATED MESSAGE, ALL EXPERI-..”[/i

The message cut off as the floodgates opened it was the tide of many hundreds no a million in total had rushed into the pit trained all mindless after the experiments they had undergone they didn’t even feel fear, they didn’t even feel the knowledge they had gained from it. Tora Lionus wasn’t there he was gathering info though, which was why as the battles began only one figure had walked out of a lone door, 818. Azuma Lazarus, had walked out the other 999,999 experiments seemed to let out cries as they all had begun the battle, it was mayhem explosions that shook the dome had been going every direction Azuma Himself had slowly thought as he walked forward [i]’This isn’t even fun this is sad, but I guess to live.. I might.. have to fight here That voice in his head was echoed by his zan. ’So we are going to fight, the death may bring closure, lets find the new horizon Then their thoughts overlapped into one ’This is why we.. WILL WIN

With those words said, they kicked off jumping through the air, intercepting one of the many test subjects having punched it in the face, the friction exploding because this one was so weak it was laughable, its face combusted into flame, it roared and expanded then it ultimately exploded, from there though it seemed like it had become almost something which had been like a pile of ash, that head had combusted after exploding and Azuma Landed and began to run , two of the opponents jumping out of buildings these hadn’t even stopped hands out stretched some kind of metal or electricity expanding from their hands. Both had been stopped as Azuma had Jerked his hands out to the sides friction in the air racing up causing both to halt almost floating as the friction then overpowered them causing them to shoot backwards smashing into the roof which was quaking from the battle which was taking place, as a scream seemed to be behind azuma, a sharp cutting sensation in his right shoulder which had stopped before it could really fully enter the skin and cause major damage.

He looked over his shoulder then the expression on his face was hard to comprehend, in fact he just had jerked his hand around grabing the person wrist and throwing them down igniting their body as they shot through the air like a rocket. Then Azuma’s feet launched off into a run, around him was nothing but explosions and combat, it wasn’t hard but it was dangerous explosions coming from all sides he hadn’t even felt it after awhile his blood lust was rising as he had called out the name he had learned in his inner world his head moving back and his zans unity creating far more power then was normally needed. A IMMENSE explosion following flames sweeping out in a solid wall which hit the ceiling houses and the rocks which had been for hiding had begun to combust the wall of friction was roaring through the entire project as he had finally let his voice which ran raw from the power that was coursing through his body said.. “Ignite the World, Friction God, the primordial flame!”

From those words everything seemed to explode as he ascended into the world of shikai it was but a matter of time his skin burning as he was unused to his powers, using them the first time had brought him untold pain but he held the extreme power behind the awakening wasn’t in actual energy as the power itself spiked friction was increasing the ashes now combusted and mere air combusted as the fire was forcibly held under his will blood running from his mouth as his resolve spiked his thoughts chanting in his mind solid and resolute ’ I will win, I will win I will win, I will get stronger, I will get stronger, I will find my strength, I will find my strength, this is my future, this is my eden for it I .. ii.. WILL GET STRONGER THAN ANYONE ELSE WHO OPPOSES ME ‘ With that his eyes narrowed into pin pricks as his hands jerked out on either side, it wasn’t the time to die because the words ripping through his mouth caused him to puke up blood, his voice raw from all the yelling. Yet still he yelled with his pure resolve.. ”BURN AND ERASE THEM ALL MY PARTNER, FOR THIS IS OUR TIME, LETS SHOW THEM OUR POWER WE HAVE COME TOO FAR TO LET IT END NOW!”

What happened next was a blur, with the dome turning a cherry red his flames roared even farther bushing his limits as his skin seemed to burst pain going through him the point he didn’t feel it anymore, as literally there was too much pain for him to fully be able to comprehend it. That was win the entire place collapsed 999,999 experiments all had been killed in under an hour from this mans raw resolve though as he stood there, thousands of cuts had been pushed onto his body, both from The Experiments and some from the fact his own power had been just too much for him to fully control in the heat of the moment. Which was why as he slowly stood up the broken automated machine overseeing the battle seemed to say in its broken record over and over the same old damned thing, in the same old damned tone, even as Azuma Lazarus had approached it, it repeated monotonously.. ”WINNER SUBJECT 818: AZUMA LAZARUS, WINNER SUBJECT 818 AZUMA LAZARUS , WIN-..”

Azuma Lazarus subject 818 had stomped on the speaker which was transmitting the voice breaking it in a fiery spark while he seemed to revert from his shikai, his steps shaky and his vision blurry but he kept walking . He pushed down the door which had opened and from the blast it just fell over, and he slowly began to walk forward into a room which had been out of sight, full of the observing scientists which had been tracking his progress, each one though seemed to slowly raise their hands, and they unanimously began to clap. Tears in their eyes from the strength that Azuma Had Possessed, as they hadn’t in the wildest dreams they had ever though they would have exceeded the expectations they had for the experiments, and yet he was here 818:Azuma Lazarus, was here as the miracle which had forcibly just blown through 999,999 other experiments in under an hour although Azuma just stared at them blood running from his body, as medic had rushed around him, pulling him onto one of the medical beds they had on hand, hooking him up as they moved right on to the next phase.

+Part Four: The Hollow Within

After he had passed out they had begun the project having specifically made a hollow with the help of Tora Lionus, and under the supervision of Hakai Chikara. One which was ruthless and powerful strong it was a specimen which they had labored hard on. Now they had Begun to put it into Azuma’s Body, the hollow at first fought the process but it eventually had been forced inside into the inner world. A beast of black and white color, with no horns but a kind of mask and a metallic look it looked like a demonic android, with eyes popping up all over its front Mask , It let out a roar, energy flooding every single bit of the inner world, which azuma had also been forced into his paradise the one place he didn’t have to worry about any pain any challenge any suffered had just been invaded as Azuma woke up a hollow was right there on top of him ready to charge ready to rip him limb from limb, and you know what he did? With his body jerking suddenly he brought his foot up catching the hollow straight in the mask, sending it flipping back in a explosion of flame.

The hollow smashed into the ground and Azuma Lazarus was on his feet, gloves on and rushing forward trying to meet this unknown foe before it had the time to fully get up and recover its wits. Yet as Azuma jumped the hollow had apparently had all the time it needed to fully recover and get going again. Its hand jerking around smashing into the side of Azuma’s face sending him launching back into the ground where he stopped in a burst of flames, the hollow was on him like a fly on hot shit, its clawed left-hand jerking down on Azuma’s body. Azuma in return had jerked the back of his gloves against the back of the claws friction creating cherry red flames which exploded as the swipe came to a stop inched from his face Azuma’s free hand jerking around hooking In to collide hard with the hollows face. Though the hollow merely had its head bend as it had smashed its head into Azuma’s causing the ground to explode.

Azuma Didn’t budge either though he through his Own Friction had stopped him from moving the wind exploding as he let out a spat of blood as a crack was on his skull his opposite fist jerking forward into the hollows face, causing it to as well spit up blood, but it seemed to not move either its foot jerking up to catch Azuma In the chest lifting him off the ground for a moment, but he didn’t fly off as his friction had made his chest unable to leave the hollows knee. Azuma then dropped down spinning and jerking his foot around to smash into the side of the hollows neck, causing it to stumble and spin around before it popped back up, one arm trailing as it was jerking forward the hollows fist smashing into Azuma’s gut making him double over in pain as he spat out blood and then Azuma looking up brought his left fist jerking up to smash into the hollows chin, causing it to spit up blood, its mask splitting in half to show the beasts mouth which was a row of razor sharp teeth the screech filled the inner world as horns grew on its head a tail expanding. From the hollows mouth came a massive cero, which was a dark red. This smashed into Azuma’s arm and as it spun Azuma Let out a equally loud roar and jerked the arm to the side, the cero spiraling off and exploding in the distance. The dome like explosion sillouetted both Azuma and the Hollow.

Azuma Then jerked his knee up into the hollows gut or tried too, the hollow though seemed to have something else in mind, having jerked its elbow down the intercept Azuma’s Knee creating a explosion of force. Azuma then threw his right arm around in a hook, smashing into the hollows face sending it skittering as it spun the hollows tail Crashed roughly into azuma sending him stumbling back some. Then Azuma Let out some kind of berserker roar and went ham, bringing his fist forward trying to break the hollows mask entirely, it wasn’t up to debate anymore, as his fist jerked forward the hollow answered in kind. Its mouth opening wide, it fired a red cero which expanded scorching the tiles of his inner world, though Azuma with veins bulging in his head forcibly brought his fist forward blood spraying from the knuckles as he punched clean through the cero which ignited into a towering explosion, his fist jerking into the hollows face. Finally now the hollow skidded but it bent forward claws in the ground for support until it then rose back up and sprang after Azuma.

Azuma landed on his back for this, his hands finding purchase on the ground below him as his feet sprang up, catching the hollow in the gut, right hand jerking up almost like a break dancer, hand wrapping around the back of the hollows neck as Azuma spun, in that second becoming a blur before his trailing foot jerked down smashing into the back of the hollows neck sending it into the tiles with an explosion that broke a good area around them and then Azuma jumped back landing on the tiles with a loud slap, just then the rubble over the hollow vaporized as Light Focused in many lazar beams ripped the rubble to ash and then finally a pillar of energy blasted everywhere. The hollow came out roaring racing towards Azuma, catching him straight in the chest, causing him to skid as he then spun his foot jerking smashing into the hollow as it ran past him. The hollow spun using the kick’s momentum and round housed Azuma sending him flipping end over then into the ground with a bang.

”That one I will feel in the morning”

Azuma said as he hopped up, the hollow on his ass again, breathing down his neck with its feral intent, but as the hollow reached its claw forward inches from his face, Azuma Had his fist solidly connect with the hollows face point blank sending that many eyed freak flipping back crashing into the ground creating a path of flame as it flipped landing on its feet, firing off a beam of light. Azuma then entering the dance again had jerked his hand against the air causing it to explode with flame which had Met the lazar beam with a Thunderous roar, eclipsing the field of battle with light, as Azuma’s words roared above the carnage things would be taken to a new level, flames exploding in every direction from the friction as Azuma Yelled. ”IGNITE THE WORLD: FRICTION GOD”

Then as Azuma entered shikai the hollow let out a horrible roar its energy going through the roof, light expanding in every direction , the ground itself shattering as it jumped from the wreckage its speed almost quadrupled as its claw caught Azuma’s swift back hand, everything exploding into flame and light, Azuma then brought his head forward into the hollows sending it back, as the hollow clawed into azuma’s skin pulling itself forward and smashing its fist into Azuma’s Face. Azuma then before flying back jerked his hand around the back of the hollows neck, and spun throwing it with a sonic boom. The hollow ate tile, flipping end over end, landing skipping crashing and then recovering and landing on its feet. Azuma had then kicked off with his right foot causing the ground to break behind him as he rushed after his opponent, The hollow seemed to jerk forward letting out a wall of light beams, potent lazars which spotted the inner world. Azuma seemed to begin weaving through the beams before he had appear in the air above the hollow. Azuma and the hollow exchanged elated glances for a moment, before azuma’s foot which was high over his head jerked down onto the hollows skull. The result was almost instantaneous the hollow had smashed into the ground before it wrapped its tail around Azuma’s Ankle swinging him around in circles like a rag doll and tossing him through the air. Azuma then flipped and landed on his hands.

Not fast enough though the hollow was on him its hand swiping across Azuma’s face, too fast for his skin to cope it would cause a splattering fountain of blood before its hard foot came and connected with Azuma’s chest sending him crashing into the ground, where he was bombarded by a entire solid sky of cero’s and light beams, which pounded him with explosion after explosion , his eyes having been open as blood was flying every direction the pain was unbearable as he nearly gave up, but his Zan and his will kicked in as he grit his teeth and in words which shook the whole field, he’d have yelled in a defiant voice which wouldn’t be stopped by anyone or anything.

”BAN-KAI , AWAKEN FRICTION GOD. “

Those words had been met with a solid explosion of flame which smashed into the hollow sending it flipping back end over end. Azuma had stood up from the wreckage his body covered in holes, blood running from his chest, as his hand gripped something a hilt which protruded from his gloves. Azuma pulled it out as a un-sharpened two handed Executioners sword had gleamed menacingly in the light. As the hollow jerked forward Azuma had dragged the blades tip against the ground which had combusted in a solid line before rising in a upwards cut the flames following the arc of the blade, sending out a flaming wave which smashed into the hollow. That didn’t stop it though as the hollow broke through with a mighty yell Azuma had then with a louder roar brought the blade around in a light reverse stroke, smashing it into the side of the hollows face electricity from the cherry red blade and friction creating a explosion of lightning which in turn he used to create a opposing polarity to the hollow. That send the hollow flying back as Azuma followed it, running no sprinting after the hollow as he’d kick into the air, just when the hollow seemed to fall, Azuma’s hefty blade came over his head directly above the hollow while he looked down, his whole body jerking down bringing that blade snapping down with a ferocity, one which was hard to match , blood and gore ash and fire covering his body as he bled profusely.

“THIS IS THE END”

That was all Azuma said as the blade connected hard into the body of the hollow flames exploding everywhere mixed with electricity, lighting up his inner world for a mere moment, as the hollow seemed to grin or as well as his face would allow it. From there the hollow smashed into the ground an explosion of flame following which seemed to consume the inner world lighting it up as if a nuclear bomb went off. From there a second side to the inner world seemed to form, the hollow getting up and bowed its own words being found by its ass being pound into the ground after such an intense fight. It seemed the hollow had gained respect for the Shinigami that he had been forcefully put in after being created by the likes of Tora Lionus, that ruthless hollow had no choice but to submit because even it didn’t want to die. Even then though it was strong, Azuma noted its strength because it had taken everything he possessed to beat the hollow, which had then said its name in a respectful tone.

”My name is Raitoshadou I don’t want to but if you let me live I will not fight you anymore, for even though I am a wild beast I know when I am unable to beat someone, I will help you get stronger. . . My King”

The hollow had said on one knee, as Azuma seemed to nod his words coming out in a light voice which seemed to have nothing to do with how he was or what was to come. It was merely his compassion which was flowing through his body, and the lure of getting strong which led him to the words he was about to say, in a inner world which looked like it was half destroyed he extended his hand and before he woke up he said..

“Welcome RaitoShadou , if you betray me I will kill you but for now make yourself at home, I will need your help I feel soon enough “

With that said though he finally did, wake up.

+Part Five: The Monsuta Link Project:

Upon waking up He was subjected to something.. Azuma felt prying in his chest, pain which caused him to black out. Energy which was pumping through his veins information which was pumping through his mind; it was a hard feeling to ignore, as he bit his lip hard enough to draw blood, Azuma could hear the faint words from an automated status update machine which was further back in the lab, to prevent it from being broken as they observed him do to its sister device earlier. The voice was saying something over and over in a god-damned annoying voice, but the only thing changed was that he was now able to understand it as he was slowly getting used to the pain in his body. It was saying something over and over.. something which was disturbing to him. ”UPDATE SYSTEM LINKAGE IS IN PROGRESS PLEASE DO NOT UNHOOK THE SUBJECT OR DEATH MIGHT HAPPEN I REPEAT SYSTEM LINKAGE IS IN PROCESS PLEASE DO NOT UNHOOK THE SUBJECT OR DEATH MIGHT HA-..” He’d have blacked out in another surge of power letting out a strangled yell as the system the monsuta’s systems under Tora Lionus’s direct supervision after having permission from hakai himself, had been installing all the knowledge needed to make it run smoothly. Though at the moment it just was overwhelming Azuma and making him arch his back and writhe around almost as if he was being electrocuted.

Yet it seemed that it wasn’t really that pain which was keeping him down it was the fact his mind was rapidly being forced to Expand. No the pain didn’t stop Azuma it was the fact his body was being forced to adapt and at the same time take in so much of the information needed to link up with the monsuta’s systems that it was driving him utterly insane. Most of the time it wasn’t a big deal for someone who was used to it but for it to happen so suddenly as one might think was putting beyond an unimaginable level of strain on his body. No the strain on Azuma’s body was enough that if he had done this prior to all his strengthening he would have died without a doubt. As nuerologicall it would be unlikely an un-modified being could handle all the information that he was being forced to devour at lightning fast speeds. His body quaked and he was unable to fully understand what was going on, but the thresh hold of pain was to the point that it was beyond what he would be able to normally comprehend. It was madness that was just how it was.

After a decent amount of time the upload had gotten to the point that it had begun to fully intergrade into his system or body. The symbiotic systems already installed via the experimental stage which had started this whole mess. Those systems seemed to become alive to do their purpose. Azuma felt the sync as a million hot flames against his heart, he couldn’t think of anything else then the pain, yet he held on even as he felt the power threatening to burn him out, there was nothing else he could do other than to hold on , there was nothing else to do other then to hold on. Which was why as he grit his teeth he seemed to be fighting with fate, forcing himself to live even if he was supposed die he held on and tried his hardest to survive; Azuma didn’t want to die after coming this far, it would have been a disgrace in his mind if he had. Which is why he had forced his will to focus on solely surviving on getting stronger from this and to be able to come out a better person because of it, that was the goal at least.

Azuma vaguely could hear the systems count down, it was at what.. 60%? He held on for dear life as the energy levels seemed to rise beyond what his body could handle, blood pouring out in many situations. But as sure as his will to survive he seemed to be holding on, as scientists had been racing around him forcibly keeping him from dying. The pain in his body was hard to contain but they managed too, forcing it down keeping his body alive seemed to be the top priority to them as they had done everything they could have done to keep his body from combusting from the over abundance of energy, slowly they had further mutated his body so that it wouldn’t have died. The scientists used experimental gene altercation to keep the body from exploding in the critical period of the experiment as it seemed to be on countdown, the energy rising, his pain was sky high but the energy kept rising cramming into his body, much to his dismay. He didn’t even think it was possible for this much pain or energy to fit in one single body, it was .. nuts. To him.

The count-down had entered the single digits as the sky seemed to begin to combust into nothing but fire, from the rising energy. His own body seemed to slowly be adjusting to the pain he felt, to the strain he felt in his body. And Azuma seemed just to look in absolute surprise internally atleast his eyes slowly opening as the timer was down to 5 , he felt the pain rising in his chest. And he screamed his scream seemed to drown out everything else as he almost blew up everything in the room, a light radiating around him the pain was unbearable but he managed to with the heightened reasoning from the monsuta’s systems have shut that pain off and managed to think rationally it wasn’t that he was going to do anything else but it was rather that because of the fact that he could understand and he could reason beyond the pain, that it was then considered a blaring success as the timer went down to zero. Azuma seemed to let out a unheavenly yell the pain obviously overwhelming him , but then the timer finally hit zero, and it shut the sink off.. and said in a loud monotone voice..

“SYNC COMPLETE CHIP INSERTED.. COMPLETE.. COMPLETEL.. “

Azuma seemed to then have slumped down and let out a light painful exhale as smoke and burns radiated around his body, the pain finally having got to him after an extended duration of having to deal with it. He finally passed out after this link was over, his body slumping down against the bed, as he was then moved by the scientists to the next part of what he needed to do, but for him? All he did was take a much deserves nap-

+Part Six: The Path Of Perfection:

Perfection isn’t easy , and as Azuma woke up he learned that the hard way, as he was once more in the experimental room. There was a scalpel to his chest and he was being worked on, because of what happened when he was trying to sync earlier. He had barely escaped with his life to the scientists seemed to end up thinking he wasn’t perfect yet. They began to work on him more, pulling out the skin and replacing it with new skin, they had been turning him into a complete experiment from the beginning. This wasn’t really any different then it, as the pain coursed through his veins, he had fully seemed to realize what was going on, but Azuma didn’t struggle he had come to far, which was why black with pain he fought and kept himself moving forward, his eyes rolling into the back of his head. His mouth clamping shut to keep from screaming, he felt every cut even though he wanted to ignore them so bad, he couldn’t each cut brought more pain, and each add on to the pain brought him closer to passing out, which was why after a few hours he passed out once more.

The first thing that was added of course was a chip, this chip when added would allow Tora Lionus and Hakai Chikara to both if put in the code at the same time eliminate this secret weapon so that it could not be used against the monsuta in chance of defection would become close if not absolutely zero thanks to this fact. More then this though ,the chip linked his brain stem with the rest of his body, which seemed to be built to handle the immense strain of power that was present in the body. All the while Azuma himself was in cyber space he seemed to be almost hiding his mind was stuck in the system the knowledge which had merged with his body was hard to fully comprehend anymore, in fact it was taking a life of its own within his body, the system itself had a kind of personality which was asserting itself in the situation. This was called Nirvana the networks heart, a kind of cyber existance which happened when the body of a compatible host was synced up with the network, which was why as he slowly had allowed his eyes to open he had focused inwards on the cyber space he was trapped in.

He could see a kind of strange and large body looming over the horizon , it was made up of data and code, it was filling up the cyberspace and seemed like a fast conscious mind, without a beating heart. It was hard to see but the network had fully intergraded with Azuma at that point allowing for what was known as Nirvana to be born. This protocol would be the building block of the further modifications needed to bring him towards the path of perfection. Nirvana itself though seemed almost to begin toying with him its words didn’t hold much meaning but all that was known as the existence asserted itself it seemed more like a methodical being then any rational one built by the monsuta’s immense knowledge databanks it was just there to react when the user was unable to fully comprehend the situation. This was why this seemed to have kicked in, as the net work fully assimilated though the energy coursing through everything seemed to be pushing to a stand-still the project was almost done, and everything seemed to be wrapping up at least for the most part, there wasn’t anything left for them to do, as his body had stopped rejecting the net-work and instead was now accepting it like it needed to,which was why as the scientists stepped back tubes seemed to be exiting from his body, while slowly his eyes seemed to twitch the amount of energy coursing through his veins was almost absurd.. but now he drifted towards consciousness.

There's a few problems in this, I'll start writing it here.

First of all I would like to know a given area, how far he can use his friction powers before it's beyond his reach. As if not given a specific area he's confined to, that's like saying he could change the ground's friction of the entire planet.

Other examples include if he was on the ground he could amplify the friction against his feet to increase how fast he could go

Decreasing the friction of his feet to the ground would also cause him to lose balance, it'd be hard for him to increase it to the point where he can keep his balance. Unless there's a way to keep him stable whilst using it, he'd just fall over as it'd be like walking on soapy, wet ground. That's the vibe I'm getting from it though. So whilst he has much more traction/stability in bankai and such, I don't see that in sealed.

So as an example if someone who was stronger than him actually had thrown the punch, he might be able to half or reduce the damage a reasonable amount by using this method.

however stopping attacks or the frictions affects by itself is not based on tier, its pure friction

You just contradicted yourself. Hard. That makes no sense, you go on to say that he can reduce the punch of a stronger level above him, but then when it comes to stopping attacks, you say tier doesn't play a role? How would one then, in turn, know what is 'stronger' and what isn't if it's not based on tier, but pure friction? Also, what about weaker people? Tier 3 or so? Is it impossible for them to hit him? I'm not going to accept something like that if so.

Now Because this isn’t normal fire and its generated by friction , it should be known that while water might put it out, it may just combust as well because its generating friction between the substance even liquid and then causing it to heat up beyond the point that it could become a solid liquid or a gas

So... someone uses water on him to extinguish the flames... yet instead it suddenly goes up in flames? I understand how that works in theory but it seems like a bit of a "Oh, water? I'll just make more fire out of that" whilst not giving any way to extinguish the flames already created. The only possible thing I can imagine to put it out is wind or restricting the oxygen, and even then, with the wind coming in the friction of that could also be altered upon touch to create even more flames. It seems like there's no real way to extinguish the fire, despite the proper ways being there. I would like to see some draw backs or ways to counter-act this.

such as if he’s using this to defend he could block an equal tier from the friction induced by their attack, not by his defense

Brings me back to my earlier point, tier doesn't matter you said when it comes to the friction? Decide on one.

This static is increased exponentially then over the contact of duration

So... how does the static electricity increase? Even with intense amounts of friction between objects, static electricity is only made in small quantities, so how is that amplified? I don't exactly understand. It says he manipulates it to become a strong surge, but how? There is given no explanation beyond that of 'lolhecandoit'. He needs a medium, something that can ALLOW him to do it. Whether that's through his own abilities somehow or through an external source, give an example of how he does it.

But that is really the general gist of what he is able to do when it comes to electricity generation and manipulation.

I... really don't see how this is related to friction. You said he generates electricity through friction, therefor amplifying it somehow, sure, but friction doesn't allow you to manipulate electricity. It allows you to utilize it in ways, sure. Or is this completely separate from his friction powers? If so, the name is very misleading.

completely burn through defenses of a Tier Lower then the host and can do so without much problem at all .

Not without a problem. That's like saying, 'oh, you're lower tier? Your defenses don't mean anything lol.' I'm not going to approve something like that. Change it to significant damage to or has been known to do so. Not without a problem.

it can cause those that are even just a tier lower then Azuma to pass out in given situations [normally] because of the fact that his Energy is tied with his Will Power

You can't just lolknock them out, which I think you understand. Just clarifying that it won't be as simple as making a tier below knocked out.

hat the energy when condensed can become a tangible armor which can block the equivalent of maybe two Cero Oscuras’s from someone of the same tier without taking much damage.

Cero Oscuras is the most powerful Cero... and he can withstand TWO without much damage, this is a direct hit? Because even with this defense of his energy, withstanding two consecutive Cero Oscuras' is EXTREMELY hard. I understand high resistance, but none the less that's still extremely hard to withstand.

I have put some clarifications into it, and as to its limits it is based on tier, as most attacks generated depend on the amount of energy used, therefor if i was to constrict it to a set area, it wouldn't be possible, however as to the energy, stopping it without damage isn't due to just his defenses, it's more due to the fact his abilities build off of each other, and as you might know "Without Damage" Is innacurate so i will change it to with burns or minor injuries present, due to the compilation which ammasses into what is his masked state. Distance though, will be based on tier.
