Darkness Broad

The is a sword mainly used by the Armored Darkness as a secondary weapon. It usually remains rested on its left hip and is only deployed either when it was disarmed from its Darkness Trident or dual wielding them together. Due the weapon's nature of being built from similar material as the sentient armor, it can also be exploited as a weapon against Armored Darkness.
==History==
===Ultraman Mebius Gaiden: Armored Darkness===
The Darkness Broad was first seen resting on Armored Darkness as a secondary weapon. While it fights against Ultraman Mebius, Ultraman Hikari paralyzes the sentient armor from within for his companion to swipe the Darkness Broad and creates a small gap on its helmet. This gap allows Ryu Aihara to get in and merges with Hikari again. When both Ultras and Crew GUYS merge to form Mebius Phoenix Brave, the Super Ultraman steals the Darkness Broad again and slices the sentient armor from the helmet to pelvis, providing him an opportunity to open fire. 
===Ultra Galaxy Mega Monster Battle: Never Ending Odyssey===
The Darkness Broad was separated from Armored Darkness after it was sealed by Ultraseven in a desperate bid to take down the armor with him. A Reionics Alien Mefilas grabbed the weapon and was empowered into Armored Mefilas, allowing him to enact revenge on its fellow Reionics rivals. While guided by Armored Darkness, the sword influenced Mefilas into freeing the sentient armor before it killed the alien to reclaim its sword, which it dual wielded in the fight against Rei's Gomora. Following the armor's destruction and reformation under Alien Reiblood, Armored Darkness unsheathed the Darkness Broad when his Darkness Trident was knocked away, but it too was knocked out of his hands by EX Gomora. 
===Ultra Zero Fight===
Possessed by the vengeful spirit of Ultraman Belial, Armored Darkness became part of Belial's form, known as Kaiser Darkness. Belial wields both the Darkness Trident and Darkness Broad, the latter is even used in a fencing duel against Ultimate Zero via Ultimate Zero Sword. The sword is most likely abandoned alongside pieces of the Armored Darkness at the Monster Graveyard after Belial possesses Zero to become Zero Darkness. 
==Powers==
*Size Change: Appropriately enough, the sword can change its own size from giant to human size. Its small stature does not diminish its power however.
*Energy Slash: Even in small stature, the Darkness Broad can emit a slash of energy wave, capable of destroying a giant monster.
*Durability: Being made by the same material as Armored Darkness, the Darkness Broad is equally durable in combat. It is also the only weapon capable of destroying the armor if no other alternatives is available.
*Mental Influence: Even after its owner is sealed and separated, the Darkness Broad can influence its user to comply with Armored Darkness' suggestions to restore itself.
*Evolution: At least towards a Reionics Alien Mefilas, it is able to empower the alien into its armored form, with pieces resembling Armored Darkness itself.
==Other Media==
===Ultraman Festival 2009===
In the second stage show, when Imit-Ultraman found himself at disadvantage against Ultraman and the rest of his forces defeated, he performs his last resort tactic; brandishing the Darkness Broad, he impaled himself on the gut and resurrected Alien Empera by offering his life as a sacrifice. Alien Empera gets revived, all suited up in the Armored Darkness and prepares to fight the Ultras. Even though he also wield the Darkness Broad as well, Empera was killed by Ultraman Belial, taking over the role of the stage show's final villain from him.
