Fūjin Hari



Fūjin Hari is a type of Martial arts that utilizes acupuncture to attack. It is one of Takeshi Motomeru's favored martial arts. It is expressed through strong, fast attacks with the fingers resembling needles to pressure or vital points on the body.

Origin & Creation
The martial arts was created by Takeshi Motomeru after he joined the 2nd division. Takeshi originally was part of the 4th Division, which helped him learn about the human anatomy. During Takeshi's time reading books about the human body he was stumbled across all the pressure points but only used this knowledge for treating patients during his involvement with the 4th Division. Upon joining the 2nd Division, as the 3rd Seat, he used what he knew about the human anatomy for more offensive means. The result was the creation of Fūjin Hari.

History
The first time this style was used, was against a prisoner who escaped from his bonds. Takeshi, being in charge of prisoners, subdued the prisoner within a short period of time. The prisoner wasn't harmed as much as could've been, through brute force, but instead was rendered helpess. Takeshi claims that this martial arts style uses minimum effort in strength but requires vast knowledge on the human body in order to accurately pull off each technique.

Known Skills

 * An acupuncture technique not used against an opponent but on themselves. By hitting a pressure point above the heart, one seals the pain inhibitors throughout the body. With pain vanishing, one can achieve greater strength and speed then before, while at the same time ignoring injuries. The strength to this technique is also its flaw. By ignoring the pain, one could die of blood loss and internal injuries without even realizing it. This is why the technique is deemed a double-edge sword and should only be used in dire situations. Only those with healing techniques should use this technique.
