Overview
The Hiryūmyaku is the Kekkei Genkai of the Sakakibara Clan. ## Abilities It allows the user to completely manipulate their own blood, solidifying it and making it as sharp as any weapon, or hardening it and making as sturdy as any armor. ## Limitations It requires a living body and blood to be performed. People revived via Edo Tensei cannot use this Kekkei Genkai. ## Strenghts & Weaknesses The Hiryūmyaku is endlessly adaptable and can fit in many different fighting styles and even in various support roles. The more the user bleeds, the more dangerous they are, as they have access to more blood. ##Other Effects Because of this Kekkei Genkai, the physiology of the members of the clan has adapted and evolved consequently, and they have more blood than regular people, replenish it faster, and have an extremely high regeneration skill. If someone without these biological advantages somehow acquires the Hiryūmyaku, they'd be at more risk of dying of blood loss. # Advanced Forms Kokuryūmyaku (黒流脈 pulse of the black stream) Is the advanced form of the Hiryūmyaku which very few individuals in a generation can awaken. It was believed that only the main branch of the Sakakibara clan was able to use it. ## Description When activated, the user’s blood turns pitch black and can disintegrate everything it comes in contact with, so that not even ashes remain. It is so dangerous that it can only be activated for brief periods of time, with a limit of around two minutes, because it can even surpass the Sakakibara’s regeneration speed. It is one of the few actual certain-kill techniques to exist.
