Kaimetsuga (Annihilation Fang): In its sealed form Kaimetsuga exists as a daishō pair of swords consisting of a wakizashi and a tachi. They both have a parallelogram-shaped guard with dark orange hilt-wrapping and are both sheathed in an orange sheathe.


 * Shikai: The wielder holds each blade in between the index and middle finger of each hand and is then triggered by the command “Leave nothing behind”. In shikai Kaimetsuga’s two blades turn into two submachine guns that strongly resemble MP7A1s; one [the tachi] submachine gun has an extension on the barrel that heavily resembles a suppressor and is also slightly longer than the other [the wakizashi] submachine gun. The submachine guns are totally black and have the kanji “牙” (“fang”) embossed on the body of each one.


 * Special shikai abilities: Kaimetsuga is a mid range zanpakutō that has the ability to rapidly fire condensed spiritual energy from either submachine gun. The guns fire dense orange ‘bolts’ of spiritual energy (which are slightly larger in size than a golf ball) called “”. Reidan carry strong concussive force (similar to an Arrancar’s Bala) and have extremely high penetrative capabilities; they explode on anything they cannot penetrate. The two guns still somewhat function as a daishō pair; one [the wakizashi] gun has a faster rate of fire while the other [the tachi] gun has a slower rate of fire, but the tachi gun shoots Reidan that carry a concussive force that is twice as strong as the wakizashi gun. Both guns are also sturdy and strong enough to withstand heavy attacks. When the guns are firing they glow orange. Continuous firing of Kaimetsuga’s guns without rest exponentially increases the rate of spiritual energy consumption. Both techniques can be used in shikai and bankai. Unlike normal firearms Kaimetsuga has little to no recoil.


 * Konzetsudan (Eradication Shot): The wielder charges the [tachi] submachine gun with a large amount of spiritual energy which causes it to radiantly glow orange, then the wielder pulls the trigger firing a dense orange blast of condensed spiritual energy (similar to a Cero) at a target; it can be fired instantaneously but to achieve maximum power the wielder must charge the attack for at least three seconds. At maximum power the technique is three times more powerful than the Reidan that the [tachi] gun fires, but has concussive force that is a third in power; this technique causes recoil. Multiple usages of this technique in short periods of time, consumes a lot of spiritual energy.


 * Harisakeru Jōsū (Burst Multiplier): A technique that increases the [wakizashi] submachine gun’s rate of fire, quadrupling the amount of Reidan fired at one time. This has the drawbacks of lowering the overall accuracy of the gun and increasing the rate of spiritual energy consumption. This technique causes slight recoil.


 * Bankai: Hijō Kaimetsuga (Ruthless Annihilation Fang): The wielder crosses their arms over their chest in an “X” shape and initiates bankai whilst pulling the triggers of the guns, causing a mighty explosion of reiatsu. Hijō Kaimetsuga now takes the form of two rotary draconic plasma cannons that encapsulate the wielder’s hands and lower forearms . The ‘fangs’ end in sharp points and the kanji “牙” is embossed on each one. The wielder now wears a dark orange flak jacket over their shihakushō; the kanji “勦” (“annihilate”) is emblazoned in fire red on the back of the jacket.


 * Special bankai abilities: Hijō Kaimetsuga is a mid to long range zanpakutō that retains most of its shikai abilities albeit, enhanced ones. The three ‘fangs’ rotate like Gatling-style barrels when firing. The Reidan fired from the tips of the ‘fangs’ carry a concussive force equal to that of the shikai [tachi] submachine gun and have slightly better penetrative capabilities, however Reidan fired from the central cannon have a concussive force double that of the Reidan from the individual ‘fangs’. The ‘fangs’ have a rate of fire twice that of the central cannon; the wielder can fire from the ‘fangs’ and the central cannons separately or simultaneously. Because Hijō Kaimetsuga encapsulates the wielder’s hands and lower forearms, the wielder fires the plasma cannon-like weapons by tensing their hand and finger muscles. Hijō Kaimetsuga is extremely sturdy and strong all over, easily able to withstand heavy attacks from even released swords, and due to the sharpness of the ‘fangs’, it can also be used to attack with in a melee fashion. Hijō Kaimetsuga also enhances the wielder’s vision, allowing them to track fast moving objects with ease. Like in shikai, continuous firing of the Hijō Kaimetsuga exponentially increases the rate of spiritual energy consumption. Like in shikai Hijō Kaimetsuga has little recoil.


 * Enhanced Konzetsudan: A more powerful version of Konzetsudan, the technique can still be fired off instantaneously but still requires a charge time of three seconds to be at maximum power. Blasts come from each ‘fang’ and the central cannon, combining to form a larger final blast. Because the three ‘fangs’ rotate when fired, the smaller blasts wrap around the main cannon blast, giving the final blast incredible rotary penetrative power (and an appearance similar to Drill Beam Cannon ). The enhanced technique is three times more powerful than in its shikai and has a concussive force half the power of the central cannon-fired bankai Reidan; it has stronger recoil than in shikai. Konzetsudan can be used with either weapon or both simultaneously. It consumes a lot more spiritual energy when used in bankai, than when used in shikai.


 * Suigaken (Drill Fang Fist): The three ‘fangs’ close in so their tips meet and then they rotate extremely fast like a drill. The wielder then punches the target.


 * Kyūkakushin Konzetsuga (Olfactory God, Eradication Fang): This technique requires the wielder has first cut the victim (thus drawing their blood) with Kaimetsuga’s sealed form before releasing; if this has not been done the technique cannot be used. The ‘fangs’ on each weapon open up fully and the wielder puts their arms together so the weapons face outwards. Hijō Kaimetsuga then absorbs an immense amount of the wielder’s spiritual energy and charges it into its plasma cannon-like form, causing Hijō Kaimetsuga to radiantly glow a deep orange colour. At that, a vermilion-coloured orb begins forming just in front of the two central cannons of the weapon with it reaching a maximum diameter of 2.1 metres (process takes up to 10 seconds, depending on how large the orb is). When the wielder fires off the technique, the giant orb violently expels innumerable vermilion-coloured Reidan, at an insane rate, that eternally home in on the victim (unless they are blocked and/or destroyed). The vermilion-coloured Reidan possess a concussive force slighter stronger that of the central cannon-fired bankai Reidan, have penetrative capabilities twice that of bankai Reidan and explode on anything they cannot penetrate. As more Reidan are fired off from the orb, the orb itself decreases in size until it is no more (this can take up to six seconds depending on the initial size of the orb); at this point the technique ends.
