Nine Lives

Nine Lives is a Kenjutsu technique comprised of nine instantaneous slashes augmented to kill a single opponent following its execution. It is a skill capable of adapting and changing how it appears depending on the target and circumstances of its use, such as using it with a bow, a large sword, a shield, or other weapons, that discharges nine dragon-like homing lasers at the enemy. The skill can be called a style of its own that would be best suited for a sword-user.

When Koyoichi Ayime uses this technique he targets and slashes the upper arm, collarbone, windpipe, temple, diaphragm, rib, testicles, and thighs simultaneously where he 'kills' his opponent a total of nine times (exaggerated) in an instant. Depending on the circumstances Koyoichi may need to be under the effects of Innate Time Control to properly utilize this technique.
