King of Swords 9-127
“FIERCE HORSE SOUL
A peculiar internal style with very narrow application, and one almost solely focused on defensive techniques. Practiced by most angels, it is almost entirely focused on getting close enough to a foe to subdue him without harming him, with maximal speed, safety, and precision. The movement techniques in this style are very popular and often borrowed by other schools, such as the Unlimited Chariot Sprinting technique which, when practiced properly, allows running at incredible speed over long distances without tiring. The student of this school is taught to endure all kinds of harm, hardship, and exhaustion in the pursuit of his quarry, and in doing so develops a truly unique constitution, resiliency, and ability to channel internal force.
Though it is commonly perceived to have no offensive applications, a quirk of this school is that due to its energy conservation techniques, a trained master who has practiced them for an extremely long time is capable (or so I have heard) of unleashing attacks of staggering power, aimed at felling dangerous or impossible to subdue foes. Such an technique must be delivered at extremely close range and can take a phenomenal amount of concentration and cultivation of internal force. Only the oldest extant angels proficient in this style are said to be capable of this ‘ten thousand year evil-quelling fist’ style – those that have been alive for an age or more. If any of them truly exist and can be roused to action, it would be a most terrible sight indeed.”

Well played, alt text, well played.
HE-RO!
This is probably the most entertaining tournament that Salami Dave has ever held.
It must be–
It will be his last.
ONE PUNCH!
Oh man, I’ve just checked the alt text.
This one finds it a great comfort to know the immortal Abbadon is a man of culture.
Shapeshifting women and wild horse martial arts… Add a drunken lout of a panda and a depressed lost pig and you’ve got yourself a manga.
And now… WE RIDE!
THHHHOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMM!!!
Ah, yes, reminds me of the old favorite, the BH series of plasma guns from Strohl Munitions. As they say, they “make an ommminous hummm when armed, and a satisfying THOOM when fired.” Good stuff.
Vigilant Gaze’s version here looks a bit like the big “lance” model. From the catalog:
Also, can someone link the alt text for those that can’t copy and paste it?

Bright night. Air thick. Fruit good.
HRRN!
GOING, GOING, GONE!
KAME HAME HO THERE!!!
This joke PUNched me
Whoops, guess Juggies made a “MISTAKE” as they would put it.
Scratch another body then, and at least this one they’ll get away with since, since Juggies is after all a young-ish angel who’s never seen just what the oldest angels can do in combat. Let alone one, if not mistaken, is in a Koss forged body, built to withstand and channel such a magnificent display of power without falling to bits afterwards like those forged later.
Alas though, I think ultimately their chances of not being punish aren’t good, for neither Metatron or Michael-2 are the sanest of angels these days. And the Rising King escaping their grasp yet again isn’t going to go down well with them either.
So bring on Saturday’s page and the probable remains/complete destruction of Juggernaut Stars Scours the Universe-6’s latest body.
The shells of the non-Prime angels weren’t forged by Koss though. The shells/armors of the Prime angels may have been though as they existed before Zoss broke his way into Throne.
None of the ‘second generation’ that is, everybody that isn’t a Prime, had shells until servant/human craftspeople started making them.
All of these posts, and not a single KAMEHAMEHA!
You benighted children, you’ve lost your elder’s wisdom
Iron Man called. He wants his proton cannon back.

KamehameHAAAAA GOT ‘EM!!
Nae bother wi they depth perceptinin Old One-Eye!
I have once heard of a world endlessly repeating a cycle of destruction of revival. Upon every single resurrection its warriors came back stronger and stronger even as they walked in the realm of gods causing even them to tremble. Those warriors used to use a very similiar technique, i belive they call it kamehameha as a tribute to some king or ascetic master.
Unfortunately I was never able to copy their art. Every try ends with needless movements and looking like a fool for some reason.
FWIW, in this world whence I read about these exploits, Kamehameha is from Hawaiian ka (“the”) + mehameha (“loneliness, solitude”), an epithet claimed by one of their kings, in reference to his singularity. The stress is a bit different from how it often appears in English-language materials, more like ka MEhaMEha.
As often pronounced in English and Japanese, KAmeHAmeHA, it sounds more like the nonce Japanese phrase 亀 (kame) 羽目 (hame) 派 (ha), literally the “turtle predicament faction”.
Somehow this latter interpretation sounds much closer to something one might encounter in Throne, although the original Hawaiian meaning seems like something that Zoss would appreciate.
Some kill with brute strength, others use kindness. Apparently it is also possible to kill with solitude or turtles.
