Hakairyoku
Hakairyoku (破壊力, lit. Power of Destruction) is a product of immense power and skill that can be achieved by extremely skilled Swordsmen. It is said to be achieved through intense training and experience in swordplay. Users of this power can channel their energy through their swords and bodies that maximizes their potential with a blade. Users of Hakairyoku are able to:
 * Lifting heavy objects or moving and reacting at incredible speeds.
 * Cutting things that are usually harder than the sword itself, such as certain types of stone or even steel. The substance usually splits apart a few moments after being cut.
 * Transferring the force of a cut over a distance by swinging the sword at high speed, creating a "vacuum blade" of compressed air; or by simply creating strong winds with sword blows.


 * Cutting objects that are thicker than the length of the sword, such as buildings or ships.
