Thunderbolt

Sign in to edit

Thunderbolt「雷帝サンダーボルト, Sandāboruto; lit. "Thunder Emperor"」 is the power of the Holy Knight, Gilthunder.[1]

Description[]

Thunderbolt grants the user the ability to generate and manipulate lightning.

Gilthunder is highly skilled at utilizing Thunderbolt, using the power to greatly increase his physical capabilities and allow him to move at extraordinary speeds.[2]

The power is remarkably versatile and can be used in a number of ways, allowing him to perform such feats as creating rings of lightning that bind and paralyze his opponents[3] or imbuing his sword with lightning and stabbing it into the ground to seal off an underground water source.[4][5] By imbuing a weapon with lightning, its destructive potential vastly increases.[6] In addition to being able to channel lightning through weaponry, he can discharge large amounts of it from his body.[7]

Thunderbolt also grants the user a degree of control over the weather, allowing them to call forth large thunderstorms.[8][9]

Techniques[]

  • Raitei no Shukusei「雷帝らいていの粛しゅく清せい, Raitei no Shukusei; lit. "Purge of the Thunder Emperor"」: Gilthunder slashes his sword through the air in a specific sequence before pressing his hand to the blade. The target is then engulfed by a huge burst of lightning.[10]
  • Raiju no Tsuiso「雷獣らいじゅうの追走ついそう, Raijū no Tsuisō; lit. "Chase of the Lightning Beast"」: Three lightning bolts in the form of rabid beasts are summoned from the sky to strike down an opponent.[11] The attack is delayed, allowing each lightning bolt to strike in succession from multiple directions.[12]
  • Raitei no Tettsui「雷帝らいていの鉄槌てっつい, Raitei no Tettsui; lit. "Hammer of the Thunder Emperor"」: By thrusting his sword or pointing his fingers toward his opponent, Gilthunder can evoke a colossal lightning bolt to strike the ground with tremendous force.[13][14]
  • Raimeizan「雷鳴斬らいめいざん, Raimeizan; lit. "Thunder Slash"」: While engulfed in lightning, Gilthunder lunges at his opponent with extreme speed and delivers a devastating strike with his sword.[15]
  • Raitei no Tsurugi「雷帝らいていの剣つるぎ, Raitei no Tsurugi; lit. "Sword of the Thunder Emperor"」: Gilthunder discharges lightning from his body and concentrates the amassed energy into his sword.[16] The effects of this technique were never shown.
  • Raitei no Sabaki「雷帝らいていの裁さばき, Raitei no Sabaki; lit. "Judgment of the Thunder Emperor"」: A colossal lightningbolt erupts from Gilthunder's sword with a roar so violent that the sky seems to distort.[17]
  • Raitei no Jugai「雷帝らいていの重じゅう鎧がい, Raitei no Jūgai; lit. "Heavy Armor of the Thunder Emperor"」: As Gilthunder channels lightning into his weapon, he uses the surplus power coming off of it to cover his entire body in lightning while also creating a lightning shield with his free hand. The lightning surrounding his body acts like offensive armour, effectively eliminating Gilthunder's blind spots.[18]
    • Raijin no Hoyo「雷神らいじんの抱擁ほうよう, Raijin no Hōyō; lit. "Embrace of the Thunder God"」: Gilthunder discharges the electricity surrounding his body, engulfing his attacker in a ferocious burst of lightning.[19]
  • Raitei no Sendo「雷帝らいていの閃動せんどう, Raitei no Sendō; lit. "Flash of the Thunder Emperor"」: Gilthunder uses electricity to enhance his body and allow him to move at lightning fast speed.[20]

Combined Techniques[]

  • Combined Technique: Dragon Castle「合技 雷竜の城ドラゴンキャッスル, Gōgi "Doragon Kyassuru"; lit. "Thunder Dragon Castle"」: An enormous and devastatingly powerful black tornado is created. The attack is brought about by the union of Gilthunder's Purge of the Thunder Emperor technique and Howzer's Rising Tornado technique.[21]
  • Trinity Attack: Hexagonal Graveyard「三位一体合技トリニティアタック六角の墓場ヘキサゴナルグレイブヤード, Toriniti Atakku: Hekisagonaru Gureibuyādo; lit. "Triple Combined Technique: Hexagonal Graveyard"」: A triple combined attack in which Griamore traps the opponent in a six-walled cage while Howzer and Gilthunder unleash an electric tornado on them. [22]
  • Combined Technique: Spider Net Crash「合技 蜘蛛の巣の崩壊スパイダーネットクラッシュ, Gōgi "Supaidā Netto Kurasshu"; lit. "Collapse of Spider Web"」: Howzer's Crazy Wind and Gilthunder's Raitei no Tettsui combines causing the lightning to be dispersed by the rippling wind, thus increasing its range of effect.[23]
