Weather Arts/Ogarashi v2

## Ogarashi Version 2

### Type:

Devil Fruit Consuming Weapon, Modified Bo Staff, Modified Scythe, Torpedo-Powered Weapon, Shapeshifting Weapon

**Ogarashi Version 2** is Rayne's signature weapon, though with an upgrade. It still has access to the abilities provided by the Hoeru Hoeru no Mi, as it has an advanced ability to manipulate the weather by channeling the Devil Fruit's power.

## Usage

The weapon was first upgraded into **Ogarashi Version 2** during the climax against Bukwin on Maple Island. Pancho first melted several bullets and reforged it as a Torpedo thanks to his Devil Fruit, wherein he then got Ogarashi and combined it with the Torpedo. In doing so, it drastically altered its structure and increased its base powers. After doing so, Pancho then combined it with Bukwin's Weapon that had the ability to change and shapeshift, before using his Form Form Repair Polish, allowing Ogarashi to unlock its potential. Thus, he dubbed it "**Ogarashi Version Two**".

With this, Rayne became fully capable of fighting and overwhelming Bukwin, later growing its abilities and power to fight enemies that are considered way above her. The already deadly and lethal weapon capable of decapitating enemies became even deadlier and more powerful, especially in regards to its weather manipulating abilities. Interestingly, it has very little distinction from its Version 1 in terms of appearance, with the only difference being whenever it shapeshifts or is active. When it activates, it gains an ethereal white glow, indicating its abilities are at the maximum the Version 2 can provide.

All of **Ogarashi Version 2**'s abilities and uses are several magnitudes stronger than before and more effective. There is also no indication of it taking as much to set up the conditions required for earlier techniques, with the techniques even getting an increase in stages thanks to the upgrade. **Ogarashi Version 2** received a small upgrade wherein its form has defaulted to two wristbands and a necklace that Rayne wears, allowing her to fully control its power and channel it through her body to release and better use techniques.

## Basics

With the **Ogarashi Version 2**, all of the combinations and basic techniques received an upgrade. While they still function largely the same, they have slight differences in their power output, specifically because they are a stage greater than they would typically be. The following are the three Basics required to use any of the greater techniques, and their upgraded abilities:

* **Weather Arts: Cool Breeze** (嵐の大鎌涼風気象芸術, *Arashi no Ōgama: Suzukaze Kishō Geijutsu*, literally meaning "Storm Scythe Cool Breeze Meteorological Art"): By swinging either a piece of **Ogarashi Version 2** when it is in weapon form, or channeling the power of **Ogarashi Version 2** through the necklace or wristbands, Rayne unleashes a much more powerful, controlled, massively focused breeze or ball of cold air. This breeze is as potent as several Cool Breezes' from a normal Ogarashi, as it provided the conditions to immediately set up a dark cloud when combined with a **Weather Arts: Heat Breeze**. It can do everything the previous stage can do as well, but for a greater duration and/or for a greater effect. This technique was first used against Bukwin, and it was so powerful it actually damaged and sent him crashing toward the ground. Though it's intended usage was to set up the temperature required for **Weather Arts: Ultimate Tornado**, which is just the Weather Arts: Tornado technique but far greater. This basic technique with this version of the weapon is considered **Stage 3**.

* **Weather Arts: Heat Breeze** (嵐の大鎌熱風天気芸術, *Arashi no Ōgama: Neppū Tenki Geijutsu*, literally meaning "Storm Scythe Heat Wind Meteorological Art"): By swinging either a piece of **Ogarashi Version 2** when it is in weapon form, or channeling the power of **Ogarashi Version 2** through the necklace or wristbands, Rayne unleashes a much more powerful, controlled, massively focused breeze or ball of hot air. This breeze is much hotter than before and can cause Stage 2 Burns, making it just as strong as several Ogarashi **Weather Arts: Heat Breeze**. It can do everything the previous stage can do as well, but for a greater duration and/or for a greater effect. This technique was first used against Bukwin, allowing it to collide with the Cold Air to immediately create a single, massive, dark cloud. This basic technique with this version of the weapon is considered **Stage 3**.

* **Weather Arts: Thunder Breeze** (嵐の大鎌雷気象芸術, *Arashi no* *Ōgama: Kaminari Kishō Geijutsu*, literally meaning "Storm Scythe Thunder Meteorological Art"): By swinging either a piece of **Ogarashi** **Version 2** when it is in weapon form, or channeling the power of **Ogarashi Version 2** through the necklace or wristbands, Rayne unleashes a much more powerful, controlled, massively focused breeze or ball of electricity. The electricity is much more potent and at a higher voltage than before, to the point where it can permanently and temporarily power up Kaminari Raijin's abilities, though it is not known by how much. It can do everything the previous stage can do as well, but for a greater duration and/or for a greater effect. This technique was first used after Rayne noticed what her Epithet was and saw her bounty. There, it had the power to produce several bolts of electricity by simply colliding against each other and struck down around Rayne. This basic technique with this version of the weapon is considered **Stage 3**.

## Techniques

With **Ogarashi Version 2**, all of the combinations and uses of **Ogarashi** have been upgraded exceptionally. The attacks now hit harder, with much more damage dealt and a greater range than before. Even support techniques are much more accessible, allowing for deadly combinations and superior results compared to before. The following is a list of techniques used with this version of **Ogarashi**, upgraded or not:

* **Weather Arts: Tornado** (嵐の大鎌竜巻気象芸術, *Arashi no* *Ōgama: Tatsumaki Kishō Geijutsu*, literally meaning "Storm Scythe Tornado Meteorological Art"): An upgraded version of **Weather Arts: Tornado**. Unlike the normal version, this incorporates all three basic **Weather Arts** to allow for a much more devastating, but strenuous, technique. Much like the normal technique, this is Rayne's strongest **Weather Arts** technique. First, Rayne must alter the temperatures within the surrounding area by using the **Weather Arts: Heat Breeze** and **Weather Arts: Cool Breeze** once, though if used in rapid succession this makes the result much stronger and last much longer. Afterward, Rayne must then constantly alter the static electricity within a given area by using **Weather Arts: Thunder Breeze** once, though if used in rapid succession it becomes much stronger and lasts longer. The mass of electricity in the sky is enough that when concentrated, it can completely paralyze someone. With the preparations done, a storm cloud forms in the air that Rayne can then focus in front of her, before unleashing in the form of a small typhoon that quickly enlarges and grows into a massive Tornado. Unlike the normal **Weather Arts: Tornado**, this is a lot more focused, able to hone into its target and pull in only the target. The static electricity in the air is also focused on the target, allowing for a quick stun and release of several volts of electricity at the opponent. This technique was first used against Bukwin, wherein it was strong enough to completely defeat the Crossbone Pirate. This technique with this version of the weapon is considered **Ultimate Stage 1**.
