**Classification:** Human, Marine Admiral, Logia Devil Fruit User.

**Powers and Abilities:**
 Superhuman strength, speed, durability, endurance, agility, dexterity,
extremely acute hearing (able to hear activity underwater, before the
Whitebeard War began), master Haki user (Busōshoku Haki), can surround
his body with an invisible armor to augment his defensive and offensive
capabilities (he can also imbue physical objects with Busōshoku Haki),
very high-level swordsmanship (matched the Rayleigh blow for blow in a
duel for an extended period of time), ate the Pika Pika no Mi, a Logia
type Devil Fruit that allows him to create, control, and become light,
in the elemental state it allows him to access his entire physical body
genuinely becomes light and endows him with the ability to freely
disperse and reform as well as the capacity to regenerate (low-high,
going by shown feats) his elemental body, can use his ability to enhance
 the speed of physical attacks, can fire laser-like beams, bolts or
energy blasts with great destructive power or use intensely bright light
 to blind opponents, can use his ability to travel as light (does this
through the Yata no Kagami technique, reflecting himself off of objects
accordingly until he arrives at his desired destination)

**[Potency|Attack Potency]:** At least **Town level+** via feats (Destroyed a giant Mangroove tree), **City level+** via powerscaling

**[[1]]:** **Massively Hypersonic** combat speed and reactions, higher movement speed in Logia form (Intercepted G2 Luffy mid-Soru from a dozen meters away while Luffy appeared to be frozen in motion), **Speed of Light** travel speed when using Yata no Kagami technique.

**[Strength|Lifting Strength]:** At least **Class G+**

**[Strength|Striking Strength]:** **Class EJ+** (He was able to casually kick foes like X. Drake, Urouge and Basil Hawkins through multiple buildings).

**[[2]]:** **City level+**
 via powerscaling (Tanked a kick from Marco without any damage at all,
also should be close to Akainu), Logia Dispersion also makes him very
hard to kill unless circumvented.

**Stamina:**
 Very large, as he didn't show any strain or fatigue after battling for
hours at the Marineford Battle, his former colleagues were also able to
continuously battle on another for ten days.

**Range:** Extended human melee range, several meters with his light sword, several hundred meters with projectiles and lasers

**Standard Equipment:**
 He has a Den-Den Mushi (telephone) on his wrist which he uses to
communicate with other marine and World Government forces, or Summon
Buster Call.

**Intelligence:**
 Accomplished and highly experienced combatant and very proficient in
the use of his Devil Fruit ability, has enough strategic ability to hold
 the rank of admiral, commanding many marine forces.

**Weaknesses:**
 Cannot swim and becomes immobilized if more than half of his body is
covered in water, must leave his light state to physically attack, needs
 to create a mirror path (Yata no Kagami) in order to travel at
lightspeed unless he travels in a straight path, and cannot change his
course when traveling at that speed.

 There are normally two types of Haki standard people can tap into: the
Kenbunshoku Haki which allows individuals to sense the presence of
others, and Busōshoku Haki which allows individuals to create an
invisible armor around them. There is however a third type of Haki,
Haōshoku Haki, that only a few individuals can use. Kizaru is not one of
 these people.

* **Busōshoku Haki (Color of Armaments):**

```
A form of Haki that allows the user to create an "invisible armor"

```

around themselves. With that, they can protect himself from attacks, and
 if trained well, can use it to deliver stronger attacks. Besides the
increase of strength, it is the only form of attack that doesn't involve
 Kairouseki that can hit any Devil Fruit user, being able to hit the
user's original body even if it's a Logia user. It can also be used in
weapons.

**- Pika Pika no Mi (Glimmer Glimmer Fruit):**
 A Logia type Devil Fruit, this fruit allows the user to transform into
light at will as well as control it. It also enables him to move at the
speed of light and transport himself by means of reflection. The fruit's
 major strengths, like other Logia types, allows the user to become the
element they control. From this, Kizaru is able to utilize light based
attacks such as explosive lasers. The elemental state the ability endows
 him with also allows him to avoid conventional attacks as they only
disperse him. It is likely that he can be reflected like ordinary light
while in light form. He is also extremely accurate with his abilities,
able to hit the key to Ace's handcuffs from a far distance.

* **Yata no Kagami (Eight Span Mirror):**

```
Borsalino forms light in between his hands, and reflects it off any

```

surface he wishes. He then transforms into the light in order to get to

his desired location.

* **Ama no Murakumo (Sword of the Gathering Clouds of Heaven):** Borsalino forms a long, very sharp sword out of light and solidifies it, similar to Admiral Aokiji's "Ice Saber" technique. File:Kizaru sword of light.gif

* **Yasakani no Magatama (Eight Shaku Curved Jewel):**

```
Borsalino uses both hands to fire a torrent of deadly light particles,

```

causing extreme damage to whatever they hit. Borsalino can control the
spread of the attack, limiting it to a single person or covering a wide
area. It also has great piercing powers, penetrating a thick layer of

ice and then entering deep into the water with ease.

* **Laser-beams:**

```
Not a named technique, and appears to be a generic attack by Kizaru. He

```

 shoots a laser-like beam from his fingers, or feet (beyondsituational
preference, it doesn't seem to matter for him where he shoots his lasers
 from) which possesses exceptional piercing power and explodes when it
strikes the ground (so far hasn't been shown to explode upon hitting a

human, as it has pierced right through everyone it has hit).
