Juggernaut Drive

### Abilities

Temporarily unleashes the full power of the creature sealed within the Sacred Gear, but at the cost of the user's life-force and sanity.

**Juggernaut Drive**, also known as the **Dragon of Supremacy**, is a special ability of the Longinus, Boosted Gear and Divine Dividing.

Other Longinus that have creatures sealed in them also possess their own particular ability referred to as **Breakdown the Beast**, or the **Beast of Supremacy**.

## Summary

Juggernaut Drive is a special ability of both the Mid-tier Longinus, Boosted Gear and Divine Dividing, and are considered to be forbidden moves, even among the various techniques associated with the Sacred Gears. It temporarily removes the seals placed on the Heavenly Dragons, but the users will lose their sanity while their lives are devoured by the power.

It contains a curse that is made up from the negative emotions of the past possessors of the Boosted Gear and Divine Dividing which influences the current user to enter this form, though it can be permanently removed if the hatred of its past possessors is dispersed.

Because of the curse, after its first activation, it will leave the Sacred Gear in a state where the thoughts of its past possessors are released and invade the current user's mind, slowly driving them to insanity.

For other Sacred Gears that have creatures sealed inside them, their Juggernaut Drive goes under a different name called "**Breakdown the Beast**" (覇獣ブレイクダウン・ザ・ビースト, *Bureikudaun za Bīsuto*), also known as the **Beast of Supremacy**, but functions the same way.

## Abilities

### Juggernaut Drive

Juggernaut Drive unleashes the restraining seals placed on the dragons sealed in both the Boosted Gear and Divine Dividing, granting the user powers that are said to either rival or even surpass that of the gods or Satans. Their physical and magical capabilities are greatly enhanced that, upon activation, its aura alone would have destroyed the urban areas of the mortal world. Like the Balance Breaker state, the user can use [Boost] or [Divide] without the 10-second limit in this form.

While in this form, the user gains a pair of giant dragon-like skeletal wings which grants them a greatly increased flight speed to the point where it reaches the speed of sound and becomes difficult to follow even with magically reinforced eyesight. This form is also capable of fending off powerful magical attacks by simply flapping its wings. From the various jewels all over the armor, the user can grow multiple limbs and blades akin to the appearance of a western dragon. On top of that, the user obtains the ability to shoot lasers out of their mouth.

Its most powerful attack is the **Longinus Smasher** (ロンギヌス・スマッシャー, *Ronginusu Sumasshā*), previously only available in the Boosted Gear's Juggernaut Drive. It is a beam of destructive energy fired from a hidden launcher within the user's chest piece. According to Odin, the last recorded user to use it has blown away entire mountains and islands from the world maps in the span of days.

### Breakdown the Beast

Breakdown the Beast functions in practically the same manners as the Juggernaut Drive, as it grants the user immense increase in their physical and magical capabilities in exchange for their sanity and life-force. However, unlike Juggernaut Drive, it also grants the user many signature abilities belonging to the sealed creature inside, such as the Nemean Lion's ability to fend off all creations of men or the Leviathan's ability to control all marine creatures of both mundane and supernatural nature.

## Chants

A special chant is needed in order to activate the Juggernaut Drive:

*Am the Heavenly Dragon who has stolen the principles of domination from God*
*I laugh at the "infinite", and I grieve at the "dream"*
*I shall become the Red Dragon of Domination*
*And I shall sink you to the depths of the crimson purgatory!* | *I, who am about to awaken,*
*Am the Heavenly Dragon who has taken the principles of supremacy from God*
*I envy the "infinite" and I pursue the "dream"*
*I shall become the White Dragon of Supremacy*

## Drawbacks

Despite its overwhelming power, both the Juggernaut Drive and Breakdown the Beast are a double-edged sword. During the application, the user will find themselves abundant with newfound abilities and enhanced powers, and with those, immense repercussions. After activation, the user will lose their sanity and will obliterate everything in their surroundings, leaving very little to no trace. Formerly, the only way to put an end to this rampage was when the user would eventually and inevitably destroy themselves.

The forms' main danger is its consumption of the user's life-force as a fuel source. Vali is a rare exceptional case as he is able to enter the Juggernaut Drive state without endangering his life-force by using his demonic power as a substitute, but he will go berserk if he uses it for too long. However, in spite of all this, Vali cannot control the Juggernaut Drive, but enforces some of his will. Another exception would be Sairaorg, who still manages to keep his sanity in place while having his life-force drained while using Breakdown the Beast.

## Trivia

* Juggernaut Drive and similarly Breakdown the Beast were named so because they bring out a huge, powerful, and overwhelming force that forces the user into a specified negative state.
* The "infinity" and the "dream" used in the chants are references to the dragon gods, Ophis and Great Red. Ophis represents the "infinite", as their essence is the "nothingness" of infinity, while Great Red represents the "dream", as his essence is the "illusions" of dreams.
* According to Vali, a complete transformation is permanent, but it is possible to change back if the transformation is incomplete.
* While they are a set of Sacred Gears, not a singular one, the Vritra's Sacred Gears' Malebolge Vritra Promotion can be considered a Breakdown the Beast.
