Hasai Kai

The Hasai Kai is a kanabo wielded by Kaido of the Four Emperors as his weapon of choice.

Appearance
The Hasai Kai is a giant kanabo befitting Kaido's size. It is made of dark-colored metal and studded with sharp spikes.

Abilities
Kaido utilizes this club for the vast majority of his melee attacks. Brandishing the weapon with his massive strength and channeling his Haoshoku Haki through it, Kaidou can severely injure and send foes flying far distances with immense force, in just single blows. Using single swings of the club, he respectively dealt finishing blows to the mighty Kozuki Oden two decades ago (the man left severely injured, bleeding, and unconscious from the hit) as well as to a Gear Fourth-using Luffy in the present, breaking past the tremendous Haki defense of the latter's empowered form and, again, rendering the foe unconscious.

Techniques

 * Raimei Hakke (雷鳴八卦): Kaidou charges toward his opponent at blinding speed, swinging his kanabo horizontally one-handed to strike them with devastating force. The attack is so fast that, even after seeing the future, Luffy was only half-successful in dodging it. Additionally, Kaidou can imbue his kanabo with both Haoshoku and Busoshoku Haki for the attack, which causes a visible trail of dark lightning to exude from the weapon. When first used against Luffy in his Boundman state, Raimei Hakke knocked the 1.5-billion-bounty pirate unconscious in one hit. An imitation of the Raimei Hakke is used by Kaidou's child, Yamato, to devastating effect, albeit still weaker than Kaidou's. The Bagua (八卦) are eight tripartite symbols used in Taoist cosmology to represent the fundamentals of reality, based on eight interrelated concepts. The Viz Manga calls the attack Thunder Bagua.


 * Hakai (覇海): A combined attack of Kaidou and Big Mom. Standing side to side, Kaidou in his Human-Beast form swings foward his kanabo while Big Mom simultaneously swings Napoleon in its Cognac form. The combined power of the Emperor's strikes creates a powerful, explosion-like wave of force that quickly travels forward and absolutely devastates everything in its path; the attack was shown to dwarf the island of Onigashima, and Roronoa Zoro was heavily injured even by just attempting to block the attack for a moment. This move is very similar to Dorry and Brogy's combined Hakoku technique, featuring even the same poses. In the VIZ Manga, this is called Conquest of the Sea.


 * Kosanze Ragnaraku: An attack performed by Kaidou in his Human-Beast Form. Wielding his kanabo two-handed, he jumps into the air and quickly spins his weapon above his head as he imbues it with Haoshoku Haki, making it exude black lightning. He then, while descending, swings his club down with great force, smashing his foe into the ground. The move's first demonstration came against Luffy, who took the blow straight on and was knocked out by it for a brief period. The first part of the attack's name comes from Trailokyavijaya (Gōzanze Myōō, "Conqueror of Three Worlds"), one of the Five Wisdom Kings in Vajrayāna Buddhism. The name's second part refers to the Buddhist "hell", called Naraku (奈落) in Japanese; Ragu is prepended to make the reading play on Ragunaroku (ラグナロク), the Japanese rendering of Ragnarök (the apocalypse in Norse mythology). The Viz manga calls the attack Conquerer of Three Worlds Ragnaraku.
