Debut Battle 18

The Gushiken ("Taiwanese Spin") is Armblessed's deadliest attack, functioning as both an offensive and defensive technique. He folds up his arms and legs to place the chain blades on the outside and extends a spike from his back with his head upright, generating a powerful spinning motion. This propels Armblessed like a top and shreds whoever is in his way to pieces with the chain blades while simultaneously protecting him from attack on all sides. Armblessed can perform the technique with a single leg and can quickly unfold his body to deal with an attack from above, the only vulnerable area when he executes the Gushiken.
