Shion Nagumo participating in the battle against Kuroumaru
Nagumo then readies himself to attack and together with Kaito, they make the first move. However, Kuroumaru manages to keep up, slightly surprising Nagumo. They continue the battle until Nagumo manages to cut Kuroumaru's arm off. This doesn't slow Kuroumaru down as he takes Kaito's limb. That causes the Werewolf to ask Nagumo to stay out of the battle. Nagumo comments that it's just another immature request, however, he doesn't interfere anymore.[2]
Inverse Mars Arc[]
Abilities[]
Shion performing Early Summer Rain Slash
Advanced Swordmanship: Dubbed as a "Blind Swordsman" by Kuroumaru, Nagumo has shown a great proficiency in using a sword. In spite of his blindness, he was capable of attacking Kuroumaru effortlessly even to the point of cutting his arm off.[3]
- Super Electromagnetic Draw (超電磁抜刀, Chō Denji Battō): Nagumo unsheathes his blade and empowers it with the use of electromagnetism.[4]
- Early Summer Rain Slash (五月雨斬り, Samidaregiri): After using his draw technique, Nagumo slashes towards his opponent, damaging them with a wave of energy. The true power of this technique is unknown as it had no effect on its target, Karin, due to the nature of her Immortality.[4]
Spatial Displacement: While unnamed, Nagumo possesses the terrifying ability to teleport individuals from one location to another, presumably through the use of an item. What makes Nagumo's use of this technique so frightening is the skill he possesses with it; through just a single use, Nagumo was capable of instantly teleporting Karin from Earth to the moon, a distance of 384,400 km, which is no small feat for any individual.
