SHIRO-113

**SHIRO-113** is the ruthless, violence-driven rebel of the G/NEX. While evidently the most polarising member, he is characterised for his sense of justice and honour, something that he has learned through his fellow warriors in the resistance movement. His high frequency blade, the FSS, is notably fashioned to highlight his proud warrior lineage despite his dark past.

## Biography

### Background

Shirotashi Hasaki was born in Roji to an isolated Xanthosa and comes from a family of warriors and blacksmiths. Notably, he was given the opportunity to hone his sword skills, quickly absorbing all of Master Trij's knowledge and being able to practise his skills exceptionally. Notably, he is perhaps known for meditating for almost every time, especially after any battle that he has faced.

An Rojinese of deep resolve, Shiro is an agile swordsman who wields the air or wind itself against his enemies. As a young man, he was falsely accused of murdering his master—unable to prove his innocence, he was forced to slay his own brother in self defence. Even after his master's true killer has been revealed, He still could not forgive himself for all he had done, and now wanders his homeland with only the wind to guide his blade. He hasn't moved on from such events ever since.

When he grew up as an adult, he moved on to Losteria to relieve himself from the murderous past, and became a citizen, even forgetting that he was Rojinese. Not surprisingly, he became a warrior in his own right, and met a fellow Losterian hero known as Tristanna. He has gained a citizenship and he was able to prolong his peaceful life in Naymori, preferring the environment of Frakona province as he finds it very soothing and relaxing. This is also the time where he had a relationship with Gwyneth Forge, which is a little odd for a Losterian and a Nordic to fall in love.

### A New Life

Having a peaceful for so many years after his adultery, Shirotashi was surprised by the sudden appearance of such corporation whose power has no equal. As a result, he grew to show signs of hate against hyper advanced technology. Not surprising, the sacred land of Xanthosa has been invaded by PROJECT before the infamous riot took the planet by storm. As expected, various nations including his own was massacred by the megacorporation, due to their quest for global domination and colonisation.

### Riots of 2999

In the global riots occurring in 2999, Shirotashi was able to rescue his trusted people from the megacorporation, most likely as a way to redeem himself. He was eventually apprehended and effectively mutilated, experiencing a terrible transition that rendered him a complete cyborg. PROJECT didn't bother with his head mainly due to his attitude and personality fits their demands for another warrior. However, he was lucky not have a brain chip installed on his mind. Since he became a cybernetic warrior of the megacorporation, his relationship with Gwyneth became strained and they ultimately broke up.

SHIRO-113, on the other hand, was able to deceive his creators, allowing him to slice and kill them into pieces, fight his way out of the NAGASAKI headquarters in Roji, and try to find a safer location somewhere. As a result, he is the only megacorporation defector who has not been detected by the corporation's members, not even Muldoon Lundgren, who mistakenly believes he operates under orders from the corporation. In fact, they are not aware of his defection, only a small portion of PROJECT's members, most notably SHADOW. Due to this, he seeks to kill the eerily familiar face someday.

### A Call to Arms

Throughout *A Call to Arms*, SHIRO-113 has used his new cybernetic form and a powerful sword to help people wherever he travels, notably when battling in his home country of Roji. He spent his new life rescuing innocent people, children, and making the planet better, even if just by a little bit. He attempts to do the right thing by cutting away anything that contains PROJECT's technological lies. As a result, SHADOW has gained his notice and plans to kill him someday. SHIRO-113 concludes that his nemesis Shirrako must've been the megacorporation's number one operative.

Notably, SHADOW has explored the ruins of the country; Immediately finds two innocent civilians, whom appears to be conversing about exposing the megacorporation's little secrets to a small group of rebels, Which he proceeds to stalk them, and use the shadows to keep an eye on them. Afterwards, he quickly lunged to kill them. He failed to do so, as **SHIRO-113** timely intervened perfectly and parried his attack, saving the two civilians. The two best swordsmen of Roji have met once more, with SHADOW indicating that his rival is a supporter of a growing resistance group. Most importantly, the two seemed extremely enthusiastic about their confrontation.

Before making small talk, the two briefly complimented each other's new cybernetic forms. SHADOW, on the other hand, comes right to the point and decides he should die in order to avoid joining the resistance group that has started a rebellion and causing a tremendous problem for PROJECT. SHIRO-113 hates his eerily speeches, quickly ignores it and proceeds to attack him with lightning-fast strikes and SHADOW just avoided, parried, and exploited the darkness around him to avoid being harmed, prompting SHIRO-113 to mock him as a "coward who uses the shadows, frightened to get hurt."

SHIRO-113 becomes irritated by SHADOW's use of shadows and molecular projectors and chooses to employ his TEMPEST WALL ability to oppose SHADOW's stealth through the shadows and DECEPTIVE SHADOW ability. The tactic succeeded in subduing SHADOW, allowing SHIRO-113 to strike a fatal blow to his skull, but his helmet proved impenetrable to SHIRO-113's FSS Sword! Much to his surprise. SHADOW takes advantage of his mumblings about his sword not penetrating SHADOW's helmet. As a result, the latter employs his ultimate ability, which the unforgiven barely withstood the impact with his armour's shield, causing him to escape in search of ASHE-159's resistance group.

### PROJECT-G/NEX War

SHIRO-113, now a resistance warrior, employs his tremendous swordsmanship skills in overwhelmingly advanced warfare, severing all machines and adversaries he encounters throughout the global conflict. He is infamous, though, for the severe cruelty he inflicts on anybody he kills in the name of heroism. As a result of his uncompromising affinity for instigating excessive violence to commit peace in the struggle against the megacorporation, this tends to produce problems within the entire G/NEX group.

#### Rampancy: A Sword against the Titans

SHIRO-113 has joined the resistance on his actual first mission. It was the Rampancy incident; As a result, He decides to participate in whatever way possible, as he lusts to fight a worthy opponent. Upon deploying in Technovolk, he quickly dispatches numerous bots in his way, as well as fighting numerous cyborg ninjas, which he called the designs as garbage, believing that machinery cannot always surpass natural skill of a warrior. As with the others' perspective, they quickly stumble upon OBELISK, prompting all the rebels to engage the massive Titan-class mecha at all directions.

Their efforts were futile, and even SHIRO-113 was astonished by OBELISK's impervious armour. He escaped death after evading a kick from the colossal foe. He also made a remarkable achievement by parrying his right hook, but it took so much effort that the overwhelming strength that effectively ruined his shoulders. As a result, he asks the rebels to cover him as his ability to engage has been compromised. BRONZAMITE-625 quickly joins the rebels, much to his surprise, but he has no choice but to accept his ride as the mecha transformed into a car and departed from the city.

To his surprise, TRISTANNA-651 is a new member. Knowing her back in the day, he is relieved that a Losterian warrior has joined their group. As they returned to the base, they did all their best to repair his shoulders. JINX-362 was able to repair him with ease.

#### The COALESCENCE: Way of the Blade

SHIRO-113 was playing his flute in his spare time, evidently bored with the conflict because nothing interesting had transpired so far; In own perspective. However, he was instantly relieved when he learned of a massive heist, dubbed "The COALESCENCE." HAYABUSA-096 advises him to be cautious of his cybernetics, as they, like other things, fail under tremendous pressure. As a result, he applied the advise and direction to their new mission: investigate the mysterious disappearance of VI-516.

Upon arrival, he quickly dispatched groups of soldiers and bots with ease, and proceeds to split up, through ASHE-159's orders. News have sparked all across the country, showing a clip depicting a chase between a PROJECT convoy and a two seemingly vigilantes pursuing them with a motorcycle. As a result, they have strategised to intercept VI-516's possible routes. However, the tactic failed as the chase was spontaneous and didn't match their assumptions. Due to this, they were only able to interfere after the chase was halted. Like the rest of the rebels, they have discovered that VI-516 had collaborated with the elite assassin of the COALESCENCE security, in order to retrieve their stolen A.I chip. As a result, they all prepare to confront her.

Surprisingly, she just gazed at them without harming them, but she gave advise to nearly everyone in their group. PSYLOCKE-832 warns SHIRO-113 that his 0/10 Power spike isn't viable in the current state of the planet, and using such ability is practically suicide in the battlefield. He shook his head, but he knows she's correct. As everyone returned to the base, they were both relieved and perplexed for two clear reasons.

#### Going All Out

In this stage, SHIRO-113 has suffered and took a toll against the war for freedom. As a result, he has been less heroic and has done more and more questionable acts that defy what it means to be a hero, a killer and a villain. This puts him at odds with his own group.

##### The Unforgiven

After collaborating with TRISTANNA-651 to rid Roji from PROJECT, SHIRO-113 has faced considerable criticism for inciting excessive violence against the PROJECT corporation. As a response of the accusations, he shrugs and demonstrates to his detractors that violence is one of the primary attributes that everyone needs to stop the megacorporation. HAYABUSA-096 finds him somewhere in Roji, apparently sightseeing in the mountains, and his hometown surrounded by gigantic skyscrapers. He reveals that the superior technology of the megacorporation is dooming his country, especially Chazys. As a result, the two have agreed to demolish the SUPREME headquarters at the end of the war.

However, news reports indicate that SHIRO-113 has done some immoral acts. They claim that he has killed innocent and defenceless people. Unfortunately, the resistance group has heard of the news. It is actually true, which forced him to leave from the resistance, not wanting their group's reputation to be destroyed by his heinous acts.

SHIRO-113 travels to Roji to address his guilt; And decide to fight evil in his own way, without anyone to interfere; Wanting to do it all by himself. He has faced so many mafia killers and even cyborg ninjas that are not linked with the megacorporation since his arrival. He is surprised as to how a seemingly unknown mafia organisation acquires technology comparable to the megacorporation. He swiftly overcame his reservations and slaughtered them all. Not to mention that he assassinated 15 prominent mafia figures, one of whom confessed to being a PROJECT associate. He was enraged by the discovery, knowing that even high-ranking criminals aren't on the same level as the nefarious corporation.

Notably, he fatally wounded a young mafia figure. As he was about to execute him, RUBICORE and G/NEX forces surround him, asking him to surrender, due to being overboard. As a result, he surrenders and the rebels take him, much to TRISTANNA-651's annoyance. HAYABUSA-096 knew this day would come, where his unforgiven nature is unleashed, with no mercy.

##### Land of Prosperity: Losteria

TRISTANNA-651 brings SHIRO-113 and HAYABUSA-096 to Losteria, along with a slew of native rebels, after finding them from rubble, and rescuing them. Liberation, as she meant, is essential for her own nation. They lost no time in ridding the country of the megacorporation's control, seeing this as the day she had long awaited. When they arrived in the capital, Grunthel, they found a significant number of Command Line forces waiting for them, as a result, **SHIRO-113** steps in front of them, and pulls out his sword. However, he wonders why does the mission seem a little easier than he thought, which TRISTANNA-651 assumes that it may be because of their assassin and the nightrider.

They charged into battle with no warning. 651's group is quickly destroyed due to a lack ranged weapons (Only a few have firearms, or bows); the swift arrival of armoured vehicles further makes matters worse. The Blade Dancer made them attack strategically and greatly demonstrated her skill by killing hundreds of PROJECT soldiers with her blades. However, a gigantic figure arrives, forcing the Command Line forces to back up as PROJECT TAGGART walks at them; Gains knowledge about the group, quickly runs at them with no warning and smacks TRISTANNA-651 away, effectively killing her into a bloody pulp.

As a result, the rebels attempt to stop PROJECT TAGGART, with minimal or no efforts at all, as the Command Line forces simply watched TAGGART slaughter the "resistance" of TRISTANNA-651. After a long ensuing fight, all of the G/NEX members have joined the fight, as PSYLOCKE-832 and SCYLLA-028's collaboration on the country prior was actually beneficial, even if it seemed doubtful. They have now attempted to destroy TAGGART. They were unsuccessful despite their best efforts, but are fortunate enough not to be hit by his massive fists or the hammer. However, EQUINOX-612 reverses time, effectively reviving her. This allowed them to fight back at TAGGART while he is rooted in place. Luckily, RUBICORE has sent an army to deal with Command Line forces in Losteria, driving the raging mecha into a retreat as he sustains massive damage and was later seen fleeing, before settling somewhere in Brimstone, Freya; Hoping for a rematch against her to kill her again, or OBELISK.

#### Technological Lies

In the wake of Technological Lies, Daitoshi was secured by allied forces and the siege was lifted, SHIRO-113 has been cleaning house throughout the criminal underworld of Roji. As a result, he travels over the entire country, cutting their lies away with his plasma-coated blade as if nothing else mattered. To capitalise on his notoriety, he seeks out various mafia and private armies to eliminate them for the greater good. Notably, the *Medusa Flower*, a syndicate infamous for vicious criminals and corrupt corporate titans, was his primary target in his own quest.

After taking down the Medusa Flower, he singlehandedly ends multiple syndicates and mafia organisations, such as the *Crimson Barons*, *Kazuma Brothers*, *Anaconda Helix*, *Yuumi's Fangs* and the worst one in Roji, the *Godfathers of Crime*. ASHE-159 is angered after learning of his unsanctioned operations and quickly takes note of his actions, requiring HAYABUSA-096 and TRISTANNA-651 to keep an eye on him, but also control him in later operations. However, he was quickly called by FIONA-384 to deploy in Rutherland, confirming that PROJECT invaded the country with a full invasion force in order to destroy COALESCENCE and all of their members inside the country.

Afterwards, he was notably able to redeem himself after his previous actions. As a result, he travels to Losteria to check on HAYABUSA-096 and TRISTANNA-651 to see the rebuilding progress of Losteria. After doing so, he travels to Roji in order to clean things up by himself. He aims to eliminate mafia organisations that are actually allied with the megacorporation, as well as the goal of challenging their cyborg ninjas. Notably, he was able to destroy a few PROJECT machines that are not generally known to anyone, such the fearsome PHALANX-ECT mecha, a top secret design. SHADOW calls him out for it. He also discovered GRANDIOSE's corpse in Henvul, which he concluded that the elite assassin must've killed him for good, knowing that her worst enemy is him. Following that, he quickly killed numerous mafia killers and cyborg ninjas with ease after travelling in various parts of the country, most notably Cheadsul.

He apologises to the entire group for his ruthlessness, which they all accepted, but ASHE-159 demanded him to be always in team efforts, rather than his typical fashion of conducting unsanctioned solo operations that blurs the line between doing the right and wrong.

### Bleeding Edge: Ultimatum

#### A Rebel Swordsman, A Corporate Ninja Operative

Knowing their agreement, SHIRO-113 and SHADOW has managed to secure the duel at a specific location and time. Before that, he has singlehandedly wiped various enemies by himself, with ANNIHILATOR coming to his aid whenever he faces armoured vehicles in his path, while INTERCEPTOR-409 always protects him from a mile away. Their leadership of the Command Line has managed to maintain the weakened PROJECT corporation steady despite the fact that they have already the lost the war. As a result, they have been less aggressive on their operations and rather emphasising the importance of defensive operations to lessen casualties.

However, all came crashing down when BRIENNE-218, ASHE-159, SHIRO-113 and VI-516 has made short work of SHADOW's battalion, forcing him and the PATROL-05 and PL14 bots to fight the rebels. It didn't take long for him to match them all four in a fight, even going out unharmed in the entire battle. Due to this, SHIRO-113 has sliced his sword on his helmet, demanding the duel immediately. Soon, he flees as he signals a large group of mecha cavalry to stop the G/NEX. As a result, the rebels have teamed up with RUBICORE soldiers and COALESCENCE agents in order to take them down, while SHADOW perches from afar, laughing at the fact that they'll be killed easily no matter their numbers.

As a result, they have met again, SHADOW gestures for him for a private place that they have agreed upon.

#### A Final Duel

PROJECT's two blades had once again squared off; One with a plasma sword held in his hand, and the other equipped with pairs on his wrist. There will be no allies to help, no foes to meddle, no mercy, no withdrawing, and no holding back against each other this time. It is a death match, and fate is inevitable. Strangely, SHADOW has become increasingly bored as **SHIRO-113** took nearly an eternity, allowing him to wander around Brimstone alone, killing hundreds of thousands of foes for the benefit of the megacorporation.

    However, he quickly prepared as SHIRO-113 have arrived, the two quickly squared up each other, seeing that there is no turning back from a duel to the death. SHIRO-113 gladly accepts the challenge, knowing that his allies won't know about this duel, proudly stating that their duel will be forever etched into the history books. SHADOW coldly stated that it takes everyone to stop him, as with PSYLOCKE-832. As a result, he complement **SHIRO-113**'s bravery despite inferior skill. Wasting no time, the rebel's sword and the corporate ninja's blade have clashed again.

Once the rematch begins, it is apparent that the combatants are evenly matched and SHIRO-113 is more impressive in his style. The fight is long and intense, with flurries of strikes, thrusts, parries, and throws traded between the two. Eventually, He realises that SHADOW will not lose as long as he has the upper hand. SHIRO-113 alters his strategy and manages to get in a joint lock and disables his right leg, proving again that he is SHADOW's match. Shortly thereafter, SHADOW relies on one leg to perform acrobatic movements to overwhelm him with constant attacks, allowing SHIRO-113 to resort on hitting his helmet multiple times, knowing that enough hits from a high frequency plasma sword can puncture most armour. After a flurry of slices and stabs on SHADOW's helmet, He then ultimately ends the fight in victory as the unforgiven effectively beheads his rival, killing him for good.

He also rips out his Power core to avoid him being revived through digital immortality.

#### Premonition

After killing SHADOW for good, he follows orders this time and keeps his violence in check.. As they all made it into Brimstone, Freya and destroyed PROGRAM SLIPSTREAM alongside the remaining rebels, they have stumbled upon the Iceborn leader and her partner, which had an intense argument from the G/NEX and LILIAN-395 herself, not until they realised that ASHE-159's vow on her death was a funeral, and a monument. However, they are all cut off when a massive silhouette appears right in front of them.

#### ANNIHILATOR's Invitation

As ASHE-159 died from her wounds and LILIAN-395 hugged her in despair, the rebels were unable to save her despite their best efforts, and not even a Fujiwara Nanostimulant could bring her back to life. However, something awaits for them.

#### Welcome to the Digital Realm

As a result, they listened to her words, in which she requested that her body be buried and a monument erected to honour her sacrifice, to which the rebels agreed, and they all proceeded to carry the leader's corpse, with LILIAN-395 accompanying them, but there was a colossal figure awaiting them in anticipation, it was ANNIHILATOR, seeing them as another addition to his kill count and the hindrance to his plan of merging his own dimension to the physical world.

ANNIHILATOR scans the group of people carrying ASHE-159. He wasted no time sprinting at them, seeing it as an easy kill that would shatter the G/NEX forever and restore PROJECT to their former glory of ruling the planet. He swings his hammer quickly, crushing them before they can react, effectively killing them. However, OLIVEIRI-709 saves the group by shrouding them in a holographic cloud that seems to be deriving from the mecha lord's dimension. He is gravely disappointed in her, allowing him to finally decide, that **all** shall be banished to the Digital Realm. This will be the fight of their lives, and they are clearly outmatched.

Now all are trapped in his own "world", the rebels are now surprised to see his own dimension that he calls as the Digital Realm. They attempt to hide from him, but they have no room to escape or hide, against the cyberspace's creator. He got bored of waiting as the rebels took longer than expected, his ultimate ability glitched to the point where he concludes OLIVEIRI-709 must've tried to counter it in some unexplainable way.

#### A Duel for Fate

As they all prepare to confront ANNIHILATOR, they see his perfect control over his own dimension, which confirmed his plan to take over Nexonia Prime by merging the Digital Realm with the physical world, but he ends up accidentally reviving ASHE-159 in the cyberspace. After fully opening her eyes against him, OLIVEIRI-709 now decides to side with the G/NEX rebels. He simply shrugged, knowing that reconstructing her memories foreshadowed her betrayal. EION-013 swears to destroy him, knowing that his wife was brainwashed to be a cold-blooded killer for the megacorporation. The rebels try to play mind games with him, claiming that Muldoon Lundgren's death caused PROJECT to lose and photographing it as proof.

The mecha overlord does not waver from the facts, knowing that his plan will cause PROJECT to rise from the ashes once more. He even confirms that a man ruling a megacorporation is responsible for its demise, proving that a nevian element as the leadership is inefficient to an extraterrestrial megacorporation; Aspiring to be the leader someday. The rebels did not take him lightly, and they all attacked him at the same time. He scoffed at them, knowing that despite their tactics, they lacked the heavy firepower to defeat him. It was a one-sided battle and he actually *toys* with them, earning his boredom and commands his holographic minions to kill them, apparently everyone in the rebellion is barely a match for him.

JINX-362 is severely injured after one of his minions rips her left arm off during a scuffle; Then she proceeds to escape the realm at her request to the GHOST. **SHIRO-113** uses all of his skills to survive against him and his minions. Everyone was clearly outmatched, and even ANNIHILATOR admitted to playing with the rebels, knowing he could simply kill any of them with brute force. As a result, the rebels devised a strategy that relies on OLIVEIRI-709's special abilities in the Digital Realm. As a result, they have attempted to manipulate the environment in order to reverse the tide. As a result, he quickly targets her and swings his hammer at her. He made effort using his shield ability to perfectly block a few hits from the overlord.

OLIVEIRI-709 expertly interrupts him, firing a DAWNING WAVE beam with her railgun that badly wounds him while sheltering all comrades caught in the wave's detonation. As a final resort, he kills VI-516 with a blind blow of his hammer, easily reducing her into scrap metal. SHIRO-113 took the initiative to combat ANNIHILATOR with the rebels, but he takes the lead in annihilating him once and for all. The mecha overlord is amused, knowing that his proclivity for revengeance in fight distorts his judgement and challenges his allegiances into question. However, in order to properly fight with him, he plans his locations and uses talents to level the odds.

#### A Last Duel

Having prepared all his battle tactics in the realm, he suddenly jumped out of place as he narrowly died from a kick by the overlord. ANNIHILATOR mocks him for hiding, which he retorts to him that he came prepared; Which he counters by stating that any warrior shall never charge into battle without a proper strategy. With that in mind, He unleashes molecular projectors that he had stolen from SHADOW after killing him in an agreed duel, allowing him to conceal his position, and attack him from afar. To add flair into his battle plan, he throws various explosives at him, particularly the glowing sections of the mecha, which is seemingly a weak point.

ANNIHILATOR is dismayed by his sudden new tactics in a fight, surprised that SHIRO-113 didn't use his typical style of combat, which earns the impression that he attempts to win a fight against him. As the Unforgiven got close to him, he counters his strength with blinding speed, hitting him with a barrage of holographic tornadoes and unleashing FINAL BREATH move on him repeatedly, which does considerable damage to him and proceeds to blind him, knowing that his sight is a dangerous tool in any situation. However, he didn't expect the overlord to recover his optics and gain sight of him, with SHIRO-113 seemingly unfolding his helmet in sheer terror, despite his dedication.

### Death: Slow, and Painful

SHIRO-113 seems to have developed fear as ANNIHILATOR simply used his passive ability to repair himself and undo his sustained damages. As a result, He decides to even the field yet again, but he proceeds to dump numerous smoke grenades to him, in an attempt to obscure his vision. However, the overlord simply threw him away as he aims for a swing of his hammer. He then attempts to stab him again the eyes, but he grabs his sword, shatters it with his hand and drops him to the floor.

Before SHIRO-113 is rescued by his allies, they are all magnetised to the ground as the enraged ANNIHILATOR intends to kill him off soon, annoyed by his suddenly improved tactics. He was left with nothing but his own skills to defend himself against the despotic mecha. However, before he can respond, the tyrant mercilessly crushed him with a right hook, shattering him into parts as he dies inside the Digital Realm. His death was pointless, and the rebels are unable to do anything to save him, the best they can do is to grieve on his demise. As a result, He leaves the dimension despite being turned to scrap in there and returns to the physical world, where he gestures to the allies in respect while dying slowly, his cyborg body dissolving until it explodes into nothing. RUBICORE soldiers and Rising Falcon alliance members are able to witness his miserable death.

*Due to his demise, TRISTANNA-651 has been struck with unshakeable grief, as she had promised him to travel with her back in the newly rebuilt Losteria, after all is over.*

## Personality

Shirotashi Hasaki, now known as **SHIRO-113**, is a man of great integrity and resolve. He is, however, extremely judgemental because he killed his own brother in self-defence and was accused of murdering his own master. As a result, he has a guilty conscience, and to relieve his sorrow, he plays the bamboo flute or meditates to prevent negative repercussions. He also prefers to be near people, adhering to his "Stronger together" philosophy regardless of whether he is in conflict or not. He particularly despises PROJECT's machines, describing them as a "waste of good technology."

## Abilities

A defector of PROJECT, The Unforgiven know uses his newfound technology and a fearsome plasma sword to cut away technological lies of PROJECT corporation. SHIRO-113 is also remarked for his simplistic appearance, his cybernetic body is enhanced with an external suit of armour, increasing his durability, whilst his legs are mostly natural to save weight and minimal cybernetics present.

His helmet is also collapsible, and his sword can be fast-drawn to deliver the most powerful cut that can be done in less than a second, allowing him to take enemies by surprise.

### Technological Capabilities

* **WAY OF THE WIND**: When advancing against incoming enemy projectiles, he forms a shield (Only if it can damage his armour of him). Also, it allows him to score a critical strike with a very precise hit.

* **PLASMA TEMPEST**: SHIRO-113 thrusts his sword, with activated plasma energy to inflict more damage and thermal effects.

* **TEMPEST WALL**: He forms a plasma barrier serving as a covering shield for him and his allies. It can deflect various projectiles and lethal explosives, but it only lasts for 2 minutes as a drawback. Anti tank rounds can still break the shield.

* **DASHING BLADE**: His infamous dashing and swift attack ability. No explanation needed.

* **FINAL BREATH**: He leaps to the air thanks to his superhumanly strong limbs, slicing his opponent until their deaths. An anti-gravity field is applied when executing this stunt.

* **KILL METER**: The only PROJECT warrior with this technology upgrade on his HUD. This keeps track of his kills and monitors his performance. It also causes his power spike on occasion.

### Skills

* **Master Combatant**: SHIRO-113 is an extremely skilled combatant, particularly when using a sword. He can easily annihilate armies through swift and agile movements that allows him to evade enemy attacks with ease whilst taking them out with swift precision. As expected for Losterians, he is adept in Hand-to-hand combat and survival.

* **Master Swordsman**: Shirotashi Hasaki was widely respected throughout Roji prior to joining PROJECT for being the nation's greatest swordsman to ever live. His sword mastery was said to be unparalleled.

* **Master Tactician**: He is also known for his skills and experience in tactics, however, it is not on the same level as ASHE-159 or the time manipulating hacker, EQUINOX-612.

* **0/10 Powerspike**: Shirotashi is a Nevian Alpha who has employed his superior physiology since his ancient days. This is referred to as the *ten death power spike*. This phenomena is defined as him dying ten times without scoring a kill, and when this occurs, his raw power greatly increases, allowing him to annihilate an entire army.

## Trivia
