Amenomurakumo-no-Tsurugi

is the Great Noble Phantasm of Yamato Takeru.
A divine sword created in the myth of Susanoo and wielded by the legendary Yamato Takeru. It was brought forth from the tail of the eight-headed, red-eyed beast known as Japan's most fearsome Dragon of Destruction, Yamata-no-Orochi. That is to say, it is an embodiment of the various powers, both of heaven and earth, that were contained within the Dragon's body. To use this Noble Phantasm is to momentarily become a god or, in other words, to become one with the world. This is where its True Name, Sword of Heaven: Amenomurakumo-no-Tsurugi, is derived. It is a type of Divine Construct.Fate/Samurai Remnant - Logbook Entry of Yamato Takeru

Also known as the .Fate/Grand Order - Yamato Takeru: 3rd Ascension dialogue By revealing their True Name, Saber instantly gains access to godly power, the effect of which is up to Saber to decide. Were Saber to choose destruction, many would surely suffer all-enveloping devastation. Alternatively, the blade could be swung to move the wind, just as in Yamato Takeru's myth, and put out the great fire that threatens to engulf all of Edo and its innocent inhabitants. The name Amenomurakumo, literally meaning 'heavenly clouds,' is derived from the strange mist that encircled Orochi's body. It was originally linked with the ancient legend of the serpent-slaying blade from the "Records of the Grand Historian." Other names for the sword include Kusanagi-no-Tsurugi and Kusanagi-no-Tachi. It is one of Japan's three sacred treasures.
During the battle with Ushi Gozen, it is shown that Takeru is able to adjust the power of Amenomurakumo-no-Tsurugi. In Snake path, where the battle switched to the riverbank with no buildings and people, Takeru unleashed its full power to kill Ushi Gozen, whose Magical Energy supply from Edo leylines were severed beforehand, in a single blow. But in Rat path, Ushi survives the attack, forcing Takeru to finish her off with a regular strike.Fate/Samurai Remnant - Chapter V: Divide the Sky
While powered by one Command Spell, it was powerful enough to take down Hieda-no-Are's Invoke the Demigod - Yasomagatsuhi.Fate/Samurai Remnant - Normal Ending: A Ray of Light
According to Leonardo da Vinci, it only shows its true power when used to stop a disaster, just like they observed with Kusanagi in the Heian-kyō Singularity. In the Fate/Grand Order collab, Takeru uses it to cut open the Waxing Moon Fantasy Tree.Fate/Grand Order - Waxing Moon Clashing Swords Chronicles, Chapter 16
Yamato Takeru tends to keep Amenomurakumo-no-Tsurugi's appearance concealed with their second Noble Phantasm, Divine Water. They only reveal its true appearance when using their Noble Phantasm.

 is a Noble Phantasm of Yamato Takeru. A special technique that unleashes eight slashes at once. This ability's fearsome power brings to mind the massive eight-headed serpent, the Dragon of Destruction, Yamata-no-Orochi. While it is an Anti-Unit technique, it is so powerful that the surrounding area gets caught in the blast. (Naturally, its strength lessens when used as an Anti-Army technique.) Miyamoto Iori regards it as a technique beyond all others exactly like the Sword Saint he saw as a child.
Takeru expresses confidence in defeating Koga Saburo's Incarnation - Omen of the Great God Ibuki due to their prior success against a powerful Snake God during their lifetime. However, while Yui Shousetsu states that Takeru's sword would certainly kill Saburo if it hit him, she claims that Saburo's abilities may also prove equally effective. Consequently, direct confrontation is deemed a poor strategy.Fate/Samurai Remnant - Chapter IV: The Gods Stir
While powered by one Command Spell, this attack was strong enough to kill Koga Saburo's Great Orochi, the Raging Tempest. After witnessing the battle, Ushi Gozen tells her Master that retreating may be in their best interest. Yui agrees, claiming that Takeru seems like trouble, and that they should have cut Iori and Takeru down before they found their full strength. However, when Chiemon questioned Yui if they retreated because they were scared of Takeru's Noble Phantasm or because Rider is simply inadequate for the task, Yui replied that she simply judged it was not the right time to kill them. She tells him to not misunderstand, and that Rider and her are completely superior to Takeru and Iori.Fate/Samurai Remnant - Chapter II: Surging Waves
Furthermore, Takeru's Special Technique has also been shown to be powerful enough to destroy Zhou Yu's Red Cliff Calamity - Cradle of Fire. However, despite Zhou getting a direct hit to his Spiritual Core, it didn't kill him. The fight would have continued had Zhou not ended up killing himself with an arrow.Fate/Samurai Remnant - Chapter III: Hidden Influences
In Fate/Grand Order, this attack defeated the Vengeful Spirit of Tsuchimikado Yasuhiro,Fate/Grand Order - Waxing Moon Clashing Swords Chronicles, Chapter 2 and later on Kugamimi-no-Mikasa.Fate/Grand Order - Waxing Moon Clashing Swords Chronicles, Chapter 8
Despite Iori's Command Spell interrupting the True Name release, this technique remained highly destructive, causing significant damage to multiple buildings. Jeanne d'Arc gets caught within the attack, but does not receive any visible damage. Even then, Takeru was still convinced that Ushi Gozen and Jeanne wouldn't stand a chance against this Noble Phantasm. However, in fear of the attack destroying the entire town they were in, Iori forbade him from ever using it again.Fate/Samurai Remnant - Prologue Iori agree that as long as Takeru has his special technique, he can extinguish any of Jeanne's flames.
