Stamina: Superhuman (Showed no pain after having the side of his face torn open, or when Pickle bit most of his shoulder off)
Range: Standard Melee Range, up to Extended Melee Range with abstract cutting
Standard Equipment: Katanas and his Abstract Katana
Intelligence: Genius (Musashi is a battlefield genius. He is extremely perceptive, thoughtful and has immense wisdom over the arts of war, especially sword fighting. He knows every sword fighting technique there is and many others, which can effectively counter just about every other fighting style in the series. He was so skilled with the sword and in battle, that he learned how to cut people without even using his swords and his mind can pick up the signals of people's brains when they prepare to attack)
Weaknesses: Musashi rarely goes all out in his fights and usually tests his opponent's strikes and techniques and how effective they are on him. This leaves him extremely vulnerable to paralyzing attacks such as Baki's lower-jaw jabs, Yujiro's immensely powerful punches, Motobe's extreme weapon mastery, etc.
Notable Attacks/Techniques:
*Rope Art
*Sword Simulation - Is so skilled at sword fighting, he doesn't need to use an actual sword to 'cut' people. While the cut itself is not real, it can still paralyze and cause immense pain to the other characters, only with Yujiro being excluded, as he may be more powerful than Musashi. Doesn't even need to move his hands to be able to 'abstractly cut'. In his fight against Yujiro, Musashi was even able to cause physical wounds with his abstract swords, though such a feat is never performed again.
