Shokuzaiban (贖罪晩, Atonement Evening): It is sealed in the form of a wakizashi with a circular tsuba and a black hilt-wrapping and sheath.

:Shikai Special Ability: Upon release, Shokuzaiban makes the atmosphere feel really heavy, as if a lieutenant to captain class Shinigami is releasing their reiatsu.

:*Cry (Second Cry): Shuji sheathes his sword cane just before a hurricane forms around an area. It includes a large amount of rain which has no damage at all, but it is convenient for an allied ice user to take advantage of it and freeze the water coated grounds. It was shown that when Shuji uses this technique, his irises glow red.
:*Shock (ショック, Shokku): It is a close combat technique; Shokuzaiban electrocutes the target which can cause a great deal of pain.
