Hoji's Jutsu

[p r e history]

Kenjutsu

Muhen Ittōryū
^{[ Infinite One-Sword Style ]}
This is a sword style that Hoji has developed to allow him to use as many of his creations in a battle as possible. It starts off by scattering all the swords that he has with him throughout the battlefield. As the name alludes to the focus of this style is the use of one sword, but gives the user plenty of swords to incorperate into the fight. What this means is that while Hoji will only keep one sword in his hand at a time to attack with. However, he may also use his swords by throwing them into the ground and using them as platforms to travel across.

Ikihajimeru
^{[ To Start Off ]}
This is simple gesture that Hoji makes as he initiates a battle. With a simple movement he will fling the swords within his Shūken into the air, and they will all land blade first into the ground. If people in the area aren't careful they can very well be skewered by the raining blades.

Jutsu no Yawaraka-Te

Rihi
^{[ Judgement ]}
This is a technique that can only be utilized once Hoji has drawn the Yawaraka-Te, a sword created by Masamune himself. Channeling his chakra into the sword it will begin to vibrate slightly. It will then lock onto the person that Hoji wishes to judge, and then read that individual's soul. If the sword deems that person to be innocent then white fūin will spread along the sides of the blade. If the sword deems the person to be corrupt then the fūin will be a dark purple color. Whichever form the sword takes it will gain certain abilities specific to each form.

Rihi: Kokuhyō
^{[ Judgement: Damnation ]}
After deeming a soul to be corrupt or evil the Yawaraka-Te's blade will become encased with dark purple fūin. When in this state the sword is the most dangerous. The fūin not only increase the cutting properties of the blade increase twofold, but also allows for Hoji to preform various other devastating techniques as well.

Rihi: Sukui
^{[ Judgement: Salvation ]}
After deeming a soul to be pure or innocent the Yawaraka-Te's blade will become encased with glowing white fūin. When in this state the sword truly lives up to the legend of Masamune's swords being holy. The glowing white fūin that encase the blade allow the sword to become a weapon that heals rather than destroys. In other words, instead of harming what is cut by this blade it will heal it instead. Depending on how long the blade stays within the body determines how much the person is healed. This mode also has various other techniques that can only be used in this form.

Jutsu no Kajiya*

Tsugikomu
^{[ To Imbue ]}
This is a jutsu that has been passed down in the Masamune Ichizoku for generations. By moving through a quick series of In the user will place their hands upon an object. A fūin will appear on their had with the character for "Imbue." As long as this seal exists on their hands they can channel their chakra into an object, allowing for a multitude of uses. Uses such as strengthening the steel within a sword or giving an object a special ability once chakra is channeled through it.
