Aww, bummer about the Longnail's Mark of Pride... how about this one?
Nail Arts: Quick Slash
"And remember this my student, that no matter how quick your sword is, you must correctly judge the time to strike or you will be too exhausted once the opening presents itself."
- Unknown Nailmaster
Cost: 300 OM
Requirements: Physical Strength Proficiency, The Pure Nail, Burst Movement
In battle, he who swings first is most often he who swings last. Taking this wisdom into account and applying the principles of Burst Movement to sword swings is no easy task, least of all because of how draining it is. Little Ghost has accomplished this, allowing him to cut, stab, swing, thrust, and hack with his Nail at speeds much higher than he normally should (in essence he applies a similar boost like Burst Movement to his attack speed). This can be combined with other Nail Arts and weapon techniques in order to increase the speed at which they are executed once their charge/preparation time is complete. One could use this for unarmed strikes as well.
This technique will very rapidly tire those who use it in quick succession and it requires a second of letting the muscles reset for the next attempt. Should the user utilize the Burst Movement power for movement before the muscles have properly reset for another Quick Slash, the full body expenditure delays the recovery after the Quick Slash by yet another second.
