It's not the weapon you use, it's how you use the weapon(Metethias' junk)

Primary Weapon.

Weapon Name (If Any): N/A

Weapon Type: Zweihänder(German Greatsword)

Materials Used: The ever so-expensive Vaporu(Wapol)* Steel! Such material makes this blade nearly indestructible. Even the hilt and handle are made of the metal as well.

Appearance: Really? A huge blade of black steel, forged in a single piece that consists of itself and the hilt. The blade's length is about 210 cm long, close to Metethias' actual height, and thus making it a VERY noticeable weapon ... not that he tries to hide it. The width of the blade is about four and half to five cm thick. It has no cross guard to speak off, and all in all looks rather simple.

Weight & Speed: Taking into account the sheer size and length of the blade, and then applying the tremendous weight of the material used to forge it ... it's actually pretty damn heavy. Though, don't be fooled by that. Coupled with Met's superhuman strength, he swings it rather easily, especially when using it with BOTH hands ... then he can perform some insane feints, and land more than a single blow(though they wouldn't be full power swings) upon enemies. Preferably downward swings to take advantage of gravity and the weapon's weight.

How it is Holstered: Normally kept clutched at hand and resting over either shoulders. Rarely ever does Metethias abandon this weapon or relinquish his grip upon it. If it ends up being a useless weapon in a fight, he may place in somewhere temporarily to switch to his other weapons ...

Weapon Techniques:

'Shock'. - Ship-splitter technique. Can you imagine, being able to cause such a powerful swing that it's force is channeled across the air until it strikes another surface? Master swordsman are capable of this feat, and Met has gotten quite a handle on it, though it usually has to be a downward swing to maximize the destructive force behind the blow. Powerful enough to slice through small to medium sized vessels, and let them sink ... ordinary people would most likely die from direct impact with this blow. Stronger individuals can survive quite a number of blows, especially when they're now downward oriented.

Two consecutive swings can be performed in a single post, unless one a is downward oriented, in which case only one swing can be done. Cooldown is two posts long, three if consecutive or downward.

Note: The difference between a downward oriented swing and any other angle is about double, which means that the power is half that maximum potential ... IF not less than. This is not a cutting technique, it's a force technique ... limbs cannot be sliced off, but they can blasted off.

*Vaporu(Wapol) Steel is the patented item of the Baku-Baku Corporation. It is an incredibly powerful metal, capable of withstanding heavy impact, high temperatures, and even other metal substances!

Just one so far, and only one technique, cause I want to experiment with this before making anything else.

As far as the weapon itself goes, it is more or less approved.

The technique, though, raises questions. I NEED to speak to Maxwell about how naval battles will work. Hence, I can not pass an ability that can sink another vessel right now. Even then, I would definitely need to see a cooldown increase. Maybe just one more post of cooldown? Would that be acceptable? Also, can you give me a max range for the attack. I'd give it a pass then (Except for the shipwreaking part, but that could very likely pass depending on Maxwell's decision.).

I agree with everything Doc said, but please also include the speed of your technique considering that it's ranged. As for the fact you can destroy ships: I will only allow you to disable small ships (1-3) but as for medium and large no, of course that is depending on the speed because I don't want this TOO over powered. It should do MAJOR damage to medium ships, but no destroy it. Please edit for everything discussed and then we will determine if it will be approved.

I figured that'd be the opinion. And I'm not one who likes to make a lot of edits. So.

'Shock and Awe' does have a maximum range of 3 meters from initial swing, anything at the 3 meter point will not receive any damage whatsoever, maybe a little breeze of moving air, but no damage. The damage also decreases as the shockwave travels, meaning that a point-blank blow not only cuts, impales, skewers opponents, but can blast them silly as well.

The ship part was a tad bit under-described and poorly worded, I apologize. Small vessels such a small boats, dinghies, fishing vessels, Yosaku's boat, Sanji's boat, Baratie's boat, Mihawk's raft, or similar sized is subject to instant destruction if it takes the full force of this blow.

Medium-sized vessels which can carry much more than only two or three individuals may receive damage, considerably non-severe, so no matter how many consecutive hits are done, it's not very likely that it'll be sunk by this technique alone ... although doing such an attack aboard such a vessel(which most likely will be either a marine vessel or other pirate ship), would prompt Met to target masts ... mast posts require several hits to fell, though, there's no guarantee that his blade can cut through all masts(particularily not those of Adam wood ... or those not made of wood), and he doesn't find much pleasure in doing such anyhow. Large-class ships were not mentioned in the original passage since obviously, I'm not Hawk-Eye Mihawk, I cannot split Galleon flagships in seconds.

The blow is seemingly instantaneous, but only to the senses of average people. If one is of a high enough level, they may be able to detect the oncoming wave and move out of its path. It's not quite as fast as bullets, or cannons ... but it's certainly not as slow or obvious as a sword swing.

The wave's width entirely up to the width of the blade and the side used to swing ... bladed means a smaller wave width, though probability of higher amount of damage. Flat side has a slightly larger wave width, though lower amount of damage. All in all, it averages out to be the same, though.

Reconsidered values for Cooldown: Single takes 3, Consecutive takes 4, Downward(Small-vessel Scupper) is 5. After all, this is a friggin greatsword.

My apologies for the questionable area of this technique.

That's better. I don't see much wrong with it.

APPROVED!

Edited to fit new template.

Did not feel like editing in new things so.

Weapon Power: Umm ... extremely sharp? Capable of slicing buildings and used to fling them via batting?

Additional Techs.

'Blast' - Essentially, a thrust ... though it'd be absurd to one to try to thrust an unruly weapon like this. So, much like 'Shock', it's another propelled blast, this time with much more sharp point ... and an effective range of only a single meter away from the blade's tip. However, the short range is counterbalanced by a sudden impact that's bound to leave a mark, even on godly individuals(though a non-fatal wound, even if stricken over a vital area, for such beings). This is HIGHLY effective in ship combat ... when Met's targeting the ships' mast, assuming, however, he gets to that in the first place. The impact zone is as wide as the blade, about four and half to five cm. So, if an ordinary person ends up getting in the way of this blade, they're going to have a new belly button that'll kill them in an instant. Up to two consecutive 'blasts' can be done ... the cooldown is three posts for either one or two, but increases by another post when two additional blasts are done. This move does NOT have supreme penetrative power, it's just a sudden slam into something. So, that means a thick or strong enough object that's not made of wood(unless Adam Wood) can probably withstand two blows or even more, and shield someone from the damage. So, ducking behind a pretty tough wall can be done to evade this. The blow is also NOT instantaneous ... requires a few moments to travel, but its destructive capability makes up for that. Wood tends to splinter and split when hit by this, except Adam Wood. Metal is surprisingly resilient, as is stone. Other substances can be tough to break, too.

Nothing wrong.

APPROVED!

Additional Tech:

'Quake'
Important: Counter-attack technique.
Range: Direct hit.
Cooldown: 5 posts.
Effect: Wonder how effective the long-ranging slicing shockwaves can be for close-range hits? How about powerful shockwaves channeled through direct impacts with the zweihander. A weakling's body would be severely affected, and they'd have a bit of difficulty in remaining standing. So long as the zwei's blade hits the person, or something that the person is holding on to, the impact will transfer itself into said person, causing momentary immobilization and impairing motor functions ...

This ... ONLY ... works on living things. And only those who are weak will truly be affected. A person who is Strong or Godly might feel slightly numb in the limb closest to that which the block or blow occurred, but that's about it. They can continue using that limb as much as they like, until another post later in which the numbness increases and it feels as though the said limb has been removed ... though this may prove to be beneficial to enemies in pain, it's an eerie feeling to suddenly feel as though the limb in question has been severed from the body. This usually disorients most opponents.

APPROVED!

Yessir, still approved...

Rush - Multi-hit blow.
Duration: One post
Cooldown: 3 rounds
Number of hits: Depends on the amount of space in which Met can swing it.

Open-area where his blade won't come into interference by the surroundings: Min 3, Max 7.
Any other environment in which the surroundings can interfere: 1 to 3 strikes.

Effect: Just simple sword strikes, one after another after another. In a rush forward, and then a blink of existence, he fades from the sight of his enemies(but only to those who aren't skilled enough to keep up with him ... this being virtually anyone who's below his level of ability. Most of those whose fighting ability is greater can easily discern his movements, but the sudden blows from such a heavy weapon might be a little surprising.) Random strikes that may strike a vital point, or miss such point, but coupled with superhuman strength(that would be able to withstand blows from a Godly level being), but nonetheless ... they'll all come into contact with the target ... be it their actual body or them attempting to block it.

If you want an idea of how fast this is, imagine Brook's move used by Zombie Ryuuma the Legendary Samurai, Humming 3-step Notch, on steroids. Met begins with a burst of momentum, unlike that move, though, and then he calmly reappears some distance behind his foes ... where it takes a moment or two before all the cuts appear.

Each one may be simple blow, but possess enough power to smash through buildings with ease ... regardless of whether the flat side of the blade, or its edge are used.

A note: Once he rushes forward, he cannot change direction AND the blows must carry on .. so enemies who jump out of the way may receive a glancing blow(although that's still dangerous) but the rest of the strikes carry on ... and smash their way through whatever was behind the person, be it another person, a building, a cart, a stone wall, a beautiful art display(though Met may get even more pissed off and violent if the last one is the case), etc.

e.e, Hey ... I needed an uber move that does a load of damage sometime soon.
