Ninigi Sengoku

Ninigi Sengoku (戦国瓊杵, Sengoku Ninigi) is the current Captain of the, full-blooded Hitorigami, and member of the. He served three hundred years in the for murdering the head of the Shiba Clan. Ninigi was released a year following the, where some time later he joined the Gotei 13.

Zanpakutō
Inryokuhime (引力姫, Princess of Gravity): The Zanpakutō belonging to Ninigi that is more than just a Zanpakutō to him. Inryokuhime has been at Ningi's side since his youth. It was the same blade he used to kill those men that slaughter every member of his family that cold night. It is the physical manifestation of his very own Hitorigami powers. In it's sealed state Inryokuhime appears as a traditional katana with a rectangular cross-guard and a black and silver hilt. It's blade is covered by a shiny metallic sheath which compliments the hilt in every way. There's an old folklore pertaining to Inryokuhime; over a thousand years ago a young princess who'd committed treason upon her people had been sent to the depths of space. Not much more is known about the story and no new information has been found. Inryokuhime has been proven to be extremely powerful in it's own regard.

Shikai: The second form of a Zanpakutō following a sealed state. In order to release Inryokuhime, Ninigi must hold the blade near his mouth and state; "Ascend from the Earth, and meet me in space. Control all things gravity, and know your place. Sing, Inryokuhime!" (地球から上昇し、スペースで私を満たしています. すべてのものの重力を制御し、あなたの場所を知っています. 歌う、引力姫, Chikyū kara jōshō shi, supēsu de watashi o mitashite imasu. Subete no mono no jūryoku o seigyo shi, anata no basho o shitte imasu. Utau, Inryokuhime!). The appearance of the blade changes drastically, as it gains various additions in different areas. Near the hilt is a dangling silver tail made of a unique silk. Near the cross-guard where the actual blade of the sword starts is a feature you could not miss. Separating itself from the rest of the blade is a fang, that sometimes tends to cut Ninigi's hand. The entirety of the blade is a illuminating silver, which is greatly slightly different from the color of the blade when in it's sealed state.


 * Shikai Special Ability: Shikai Special Abilities: Manipulation of gravity, a fearful ability to possess indeed. This very ability defies any logic and laws there is to gravity. Ninigi has the ability to adapt to any sort of gravitational change, even if it isn't done by himself. Ninigi is able to survive and adapt to both high, low or no gravity without the normal effects caused by the high gravity or weightlessness on body, both instantaneous and/or short/long term. This includes ability to move/react normally in non-standard gravity and avoid various physiological problems they can cause. Even if the gravity is altered by others, Ninigi is able to easily adapt just as if there was no change in the first place. By creating a gravitation field around the object or person, the Hitorigami is able to crush whatever is within the boundaries of the field. This also makes it appears as though Ninigi has great strength and power.

Additionally he possesses the overwhelming power to negate gravity within a specific area. This has nearly no limitations to where gravity can be negated as gravity is everywhere. It is completely up to Ninigi discretion whether he does or doesn't want to be affected by this change. If Ninigi does choose the be affected by his negation he loses his ability to fly during this time. Additionally he can drastically decrease the gravity in area, making moving difficult for anyone in it, possibly causing people to float or leap great distances involuntarily. With this, it makes it extremely difficult for his opponent(s) to move around as they wish. Simulate extreme strength and agility by making things easier to lift and carry. The most remarkable ability of Inryokuhime is her ability to absorb the graviton particles that are within the atmosphere. By doing so Ninigi is able to store gravity within the blade so that he can preforms techniques at nearly any time he wishes. This means that he does not need to use his own reiatsu just to preform his gravity based techniques.


 * Genhime Hōkō (厳粛姫の咆哮, "Gravity Princess Roar") The signature and most overused attack by Ninigi. To initiate this attack, Ninigi inhales the gravitons floating in the atmosphere. There is also a secondary way to initiate this technique; Ninigi's lungs produce a gravity energies, by inhaling, to which he is immune to. Ninigi can crush, lift, push or pull anything that the his attack reaches and/or comes into contact with. Ninigi tends to call this a black hole stream, as he is able obliterate objects in the path of the attack. A literal Beam of Destruction. Being or object, with no exactly limitation. He is even capable of utilizing the technique to either push him opponent(s) way from him or pull his opponent(s) towards him. By pulling them towards him, he is able to capitalize with another technique or even with his sword alone and cut his opponent down. By pushing them he can create distance so that he is able to set up some sort of plan of how to deal with a situation if he doesn't know. Thanks to this technique he was able to destroy a large portion of those thousand of Sōzōshin he defeated in the Great Race Civil War.


 * Gentsume (厳粛爪, "Gravity Claw") One of the most basic spells in his arsenal. Even though it is basic it doesn't exactly lack in power. Ninigi knows the true potential of the technique after seeing his mother slay many with it alone. By allowing the graviton particles to manifest around his hand in the form of claws, Ninigi is able to slash and thrash at his opponents. Predicting when he's used or activated these claws is nearly and consciously impossible. It's perfect for close range out of options situations. He doesn't need to make a single out-of-the-norm action to manifest them. One could have a The strength and advantage of this technique is that it is invisible to the naked eye. Anything that comes into direct contact with the claws will be crushed without question due to the overwhelming force from each swing.
