Iken NamikazeTalliphan Teracole History: In the next two years the pirate took the boy as his own and trained him in the way of the sword. He also taught him the knowledge he had obtained from all of his travels on the Grandline. With the pirate as a father to him, Iken almost how much he hated pirates for bringing the battle to his old village. However Iken's dark side never did truly go away and his hate for marine and pirates alike stayed it's course. When Iken's 19th birthday rolled around the pirate showed Iken something, it was the Dark Crusade the blade Iken long ago had claimed for himself. With the gift or maybe curse bestowed upon the young man he set out to conquer the East Blue and form or join a crew before heading for the Grandline. Two weeks later Iken returned as the old pirate's death rattle set in. For the first time in the history of the sword, the person in it's possession didn't die a terrible death. This was all due to the kindness deep inside a man with a devilish dark side, it seemed even the looming darkness wouldn't slow down such a powerful will.

-Level Twelve-
Name: Dark King Kenpachi
Type: Sword Style
Description: The user swings their blade rapidly, slashing over and over with great power and speed. To achieve the power and speed the user gives up any hopes of hitting the target where they want for powerful random strikes.

For every 20% skill the user gets +1 slash, and for every 10% the user can use the amount of slashes once a second. The equation for this would be +1 per 20% of skill times the users overall skill divided by 10. ((c%/20%=s c%/10%=n nc=t)) Examples: At 20% the user gets +1 slash and can use the slash twice in one second. At 40% the user gets +2 slashes and can use it a maximum of four times a second, meaning eight possible slashes at 40%. Each slash is as powerful as the users current skill level, however the attack is less accurate.

-Level Thirteen-
Name: Demon King's Colossus
Type: Sword Style
Description: The user attacks with a slash while their weapon is covered in armament haki. Resulting from the combination is a slash powerful enough to cut through something as durable as diamond or something as large as a battleship.
Effect: The user combines his natural talent at swordsmanship with his ability to double it's potency with armament haki. At this point the user will be able to cut through super durable things like diamond or large things like a ship. If a foe was hurt, they would take a base of 120% minus their endurance. The remainder of the 120% would be translated into a damage ratio of one to one. As alway the base damage can be increase if a weapon of a high grade were used. So a supreme sword would add another 20% or 20 damage after the fact.
Level learned: 13

-Fourteen-
Name: Hell's Tornado

Effect: The user combines his natural talent at swordsmanship with his ability to double it's potency with armament haki. If a foe was hurt, they would take a base of 120% minus their endurance. The user would affect all within a five meter radius of him with 120% damage of the attack isn't blocked or avoided. Force exerted from the blade that cuts beyond the length of the blade would be the same color as an airblade, therefor visible.
Level learned: 14
Stat Requirements: 60% Skill, 30% Strength, 40% Armament Haki
-Fifteen-
Name: Cursed King Full Power
Type: Sword Style
Description: The user attacks with a straight forward slash attack, combing his maximum strength and skill that is then empowered by armament haki to increase the attack's maximum damage.
Effect: The user combines his natural talent at swordsmanship with his overwhelming strength to create a haki powered slash attack. While the attack itself is nothing fancy the power it puts out is devastating. The slash slices anything in its path before the force of the attack continues on beyond the length of the blade. With the combination of strength and skill the user is able to currently generate 160% damage with a single attack.
Level learned: 15
Stat Requirements: User’s current % in Skill, and current % in Strength, 40% Armament Haki minimum.
Name: Curse Void
Type: Sword Style
Description: The user slashes the air in any direction with a full swing. Swinging his sword at a certain skill causes the air to be displaced; creating a void. Once the air is displaced, more air rushes in, to try and fill the void created.
Effect: Everything within a meter range of the edge of the swing is pulled in with the same force as the user uses to create the vacuum minus 10%. So if the user uses 90% skill it would pull anyone with 80% or less strength/speed/agility into the range of the blade. As the user can only place two stats into the attack, the foe may only use two stats to escape the technique. As long as they are within 1 meter of the tip of the blade. Strength can be included to increase the range by 1 meter per 10%. With 20% strength the range would be 3 meters from the tip of the blade.
Level learned: 15
Stat Requirements: 90% skill minimum +#% strength.
-Sixteen-
Name: Portal to Hell
Type: Sword Style
Description: Iken uses the metal piece on the mouth of his sheath to create friction. The swordsman can use the metal while unsheathing or by rubbing the sword across it after it's already out to heat the blade of the sword. Glowing red hot, Iken can use the heated sword to ignite the hydrogen in the air to create a small explosion that trails the sword slash. When the sword is swung the black blade with the trailing explosion behind it makes it look like a portal to hell is opening causing the fire from inside to explode outwards.
Effect: The sword causes explosive damage equal to half of the skill used to create the technique. If the user uses the technique with 100% skill they add an extra 50% damage to account for the small explosion. Strength can be combined to increase the power of the technique, however it does not add to the power of the explosion.
Level learned: 16
Stat Requirements: 100% skill minimum and #% of strength.
Name: Observation Block
Type: Sword Style - Observation Haki
Description: The user increase the amount of time he has to react to a non technique attack by using observation haki. Using the increased time the user is able to block non technique attacks that he normally wouldn't have time to. Generally when using the technique the user closes or comes close to closing his eyes and then blocks a non technique attack seemingly out of nowhere.
Effect: The user feels the incoming attack before and as it happens allowing him to block without actually having to perceive the non technique attack before blocking. While seemingly giving the user a slightly paranormal insight the technique only works if the attack is only slightly faster than the users ability to react or perceive the threat. For example the user may be able to block one or two musket balls but numerous shots or more modern ammunition would be impossible.
Level learned: 16
Stat Requirements: 60% skill and 10% observation haki.
-Level Seventeen-
Name: Kenpachi Needle
Type: Sword Style
Description: The user rapidly thrusts his sword at the foe over and over again. Using his skill for technique speed rather than power the user is able to use a technique like Dark King Kenpachi however much more efficiently. The thrusting motion takes less time than a slash but suffers from a weaker strike against larger more solid foes. Blocking the technique also becomes much harder in exchange for the technique being more dangerous for the user to use.
Effect: The technique uses a formula almost identical to the Dark King Kenpachi technique. The difference in the technique is that the Kenpachi needle is able to strike three times for every 20% giving it +3 base attack. For every 10% the technique gets one round of thrusts. At 20% skill the user would be able to stab three times, twice in one second meaning the slash six times total in one second. Currently at 60% skill the user would have +9 stabs and be able to do six or +6 sets. This results in 54 thrusts in one second. The power of the technique is equal to the skill of the user for humans but increase or decreases equal to the amount that strength increases or decreases according to the size chart.
