This characteristic, unusual in most forms. Upon doing so they will apply chakra from their fingers at the utmost tip of the blade, sharpening in to the point where it may pierce even steel.

By then performing an additional one once the shunpo begins to slow, they move at an even faster rate, acquiring the previously gained momentum, while at the same time releasing an array of cuts creates a powerful whirlwind of steel, moving at such a speed that it seems that even the wind is caused. But the secret of this move lies on the rotation once maximized to cause a short-range vortex, drawing objects into this nightmare of blades. Requires Level Three Speed and Agility.

Name: Kamikaze [God's Wind]
Type: Taijutsu
Sub-type: Senkouken
Rank: A
Orientation: Offensive, Defensive
Cost:
Effects: A technique of mastery, this move combines all three core principles- Batto, Shunpo, and Danmaku- To create the Kamikaze. This technique utilizes the earlier techniques, Hayate and Amatsukatta, into a single technique. The move begins identically to Hayate, utilizing shunpos to rotate the user faster and faster. However, rather then mere cuts, the user will combine Draw and Cut to perform rather then mere slashes a barrage of force blades by performing Amatsukatta simultaneously, rapidly drawing and re-sheathing the blade to fling these deadly waves of chakra in all directions, a move that may easily annihilate a group of foes. Danmaku itself strains the arm, causing the muscles to tire easily- However, to constantly draw and sheath the sword while at the same time focusing chakra along the edge of the sword causes severe internal damage to a normal human's muscles, to the point that prolonged use or simultaneous one's may cause permanent damage. Because of this, Kamikaze is not simply reserved for Masters out of the wish for secrecy, but also out of protection. This technique requires three chakra to maintain each turn instead of one. Requires Master Level Speed and Agility.
