Itada's Domain; Release I

ZANPAKUTŌ




ZANPAKUTŌ NAME; Seken Chōdairyū [lit: "World-Eating Dragon"]

ZANPAKUTŌ FORM; While sealed, Seken Chōdairyū resembles a standard Katana in dimension, however, far more kingly. Its hilt, taped in a beautiful red fabric as gold encrusts its base as well as its guard, this blade is perfectly bowed for optimal cutting potential. Aside from its diamond-patterned appeal and the royalty of its gold inserts, the guard is entrusted with a rather scriptural prophecy around its surface. To date, and while stripped of its power, the semantics are unknown to any and all—even Itada.  

ZANPAKUTŌ SPIRIT FORM; Seken Chōdairyū takes the form of an ethereal dragon, lacking a physical form as its ghostly essence stretches the span of several mountains over. Stained in a transparent array of summer hues, this gigantic creature resides in a dimension beyond dimensions. Entrenched in a world devoid of conventional means, the plain of existence for Seken is that of a dream-state; constantly changing and adapting to the strength of mind envisioned by Itada and his spirit alike. It is truly a place where imagination had no limitation. While not “friends,” the two share a strong mutual respect for one another, and in their own way, have a trust and sense of compassion for the other’s safe-being. As a direct result of this bond, their bond is near indestructible and supplements their surplus of power.

RELEASE PHRASE; "Birthed from the world’s marrow, now called to cleanse its taint; Devastation incarnate. Birthed to be its one true salvation. Purge, Seken Chōdairyū!

SHIKAI FORM; When released into its initial stages of power—Shikai—the weapon is wrapped in a veil of heated winds. Once the blanket of reiatsu drops, the true nature of its form is revealed. Large in both length and girth, the now non-folding war fan acts as Itada’s weapon. Along its “flat,” a series of two three-pronged tomoe rests in perfect symmetry as its golden-brown exterior is lined in black. Its handle, long and wrapped in bandages for optimal grip, this base of the Fan hosts a lengthy chain used for extension and unorthodox combat.  

Predominantly handled like a flail using the chain attached to guide the fan which he can use also as a shield because of its durability, Itada has exploited every possible use of the weapon in its present state.

• Hoppō Ryū no Hone; The primary function of Seken Chōdairyū comes not with its prodigious versatility or defensive properties, but in its ability to manifests fragments of his truth strength. Guided by the direction of the War fan, “Bones of the Northern Dragon” calls forth the ethereal skeleton of an wraithlike being. Arms, chest cavities, even a head; these portions can be manifested instantaneously with a swing of Seken to do the bidding of Itada’s will. While large and greatly robust, they retain fair mobility and ample strength. Versatile in design, the limbs summoned can project outwards a fair distance and they possess enough power to crush stone and steel with relative. Itada has attained such a skillfulness with this technique that he can summon multiple portions of the creature’s body at once.
  

• Hokufū; "Northward Wind," This technique focuses on the principal function of a fan, to “blow”. By engaging an energy-based or physical attack with Seken, Itada can, with a precise countermeasure of force and reiatsu, redirect the attack back at its original castor. Supplemented by a strong gale force, the damage is returned with additional cutting properties supplemented by the War fan. While ideal for situational combat, this technique is limited to what it can redirect; stronger forces present a more difficult challenge and the probability to negating Itada’s efforts in whole. While not just for redirecting, this technique can also be used for ranged combat, dealing both strong concussive forces and cutting damage in the form of a strong wind.
  

Ryū Sono Shusshō Sekainohate [Dragon that births the end of the world]

Beckoned by the words “Bankai,” Itada will find himself consumed in a large torrent of spiraling winds. Opaque and impermeable, this shattering cocoon of raw spiritual energy will inflate exponentially before dispersing to reveal….

The progenitor to the end. 

The Dragon that births the end of the world, Seken Chōdairyū’s true form. Mammoth in sheer size, this creature easily towers the tallest of skyscrapers with a girth unequaled. Draconic in appearance, the shell flushes out and gains startling delineation in regards to its visage. Protruding from its form, four large arms move freely, all wielding blades with true length and refined sharpness. From its rear, several tails flail wildly in its wake as its entire body is covered in segmented scales that resemble gargantuan armor inserts. Upon its head, the crown of kings rests on its features, giving its already imperial exterior a godly quintessence about itself. Beyond intimidating, Itada’s bankai is worldly devastation in ethereal flesh. 

While its appearance is imposing enough, the raw potential for power has never been more present in a single construct. The ability to destroy is so probably, Itada is strictly prohibited from using his Bankai in populated areas of the Human world and the Soul Seireitei without expressed permission from Central 46 or the Sōtaichō herself. Meant for large-scale eradication, it’s said a single sweep from one of its blades can cleave a mountain in two. 

• Nameless Passive; transcending whatever latent power his shikai possessed, Itada’s Bankai is truly an indomitable epithet of raw offensive and defensive potency. While mammoth in size alone, this dragon construct is as agile as Itada himself, able to react on a whim and with little inefficiency. Boosting both startling reaction speed and dexterity, the defensive prowess of Ryū Sono Shusshō Sekainohate is said to be nigh-impenetrable. A form only wounded by the strongest of attacks, anything shy of devastating will render its armored form still intact. 
  
  
  What Ryū Sono Shusshō Sekainohate lacks in spiritual-based techniques meant for versatility, it compensates for with raw and frightening physical strength. Able to clear land masses with relative ease and strokes of its blade and tails, only the well-suited opponent can last more than a single attack from this draconic monstrosity. Unlike its Shikai counterpart, as well, Ryū Sono Shusshō Sekainohate can be controlled via a mental connection with Itada, requiring nothing more than a mere thought to guide its body or blade. 
  
  
• Raurava no Gufū; As its name suggests, Raurava no Gufū produces and sustains its own hurricane-like assault. Generated within its maul, the powerful dragon will released an eradicating wave of wind that can render entire landforms to nihility. Powerful, fast-moving, and without restraint, this attack closes large gaps in distance immediately and towers Hakufū in terms of raw destructive power.
