| Information |
Sword Birth, also known as Demonic Sword Creation, is a Sacred Gear wielded by Yuuto Kiba.
Appearance[]
Sword Birth can take on the appearance of any sword that the user may think of.
Summary[]
Sword Birth is one of the two Sacred Gears that is used by Yuuto Kiba.
In Volume 3, Yuuto manages to gain his Balance Breaker, the Sword of Betrayer, after fusing together with the Holy Element made from his friends, whom were the victims of the Holy Sword Project.
Abilities[]
Sword Birth has the ability to create numerous Demon Swords of different attributes according to the will of the user. However, the swords are not as powerful as one of the Excalibur fragments. It can also be used to create countless Demon Swords from any surface at a certain distance from the user that can also immobilize opponents. The user can also create multiples of the same sword and even pass them amongst others for them to wield.
According to Valper Galilei, Sword Birth can exihibit unparalleled power depending on the possessor's skill.
In Volume 6, while Issei Hyoudou was in Juggernaut Drive, Yuuto was able to create a temporary shelter made of swords using Sword Birth. In Volume 10 Yuuto repeated this technique, but it was broken through by Sairaorg Bael's punch.[1] During the final fight with Siegfried in Volume 12, Kiba tried to use this wall to defend himself from the slash waves of Siegfried's Chaos Break attacks, but it was broken through and Kiba got his arm cut off.[2]
Weaknesses[]
Although, Sword Birth is a versatile Sacred Gear for swordsmen, the Demon Swords produced by it are unable to rival genuine Demon Swords. Their strength and solidness also depends on the will and concentration of their wielder, which was proven when Kiba lost focus in battle after seeing Koneko Toujou injured, the sword produced from his Balance Breaker cracked.
Forms[]
Holy Eraser[] |
|---|
|
Holy Eraser (光喰剣, Hōrī Ireizā), also known as the Light-Devouring Sword, is a Demon Sword that devours holy energy. He first uses it against Freed Sellzen in their initial battle. It was ineffective, however, against the Excalibur fragments wielded by Freed later on during the Holy Sword Arc. Kiba would create several more of these to counter the Anti-Monsters, which used beams of light to kill Devils, made by Leonardo of the Khaos Brigade's Hero Faction. |
Flame Delete[] |
|
Flame Delete (炎凍剣, Fureimu Derīto), also known as the Flame-Freezing Sword, is an ice Demon Sword that devours flame. Yuuto uses this sword against Karlamine in the Rating Game between Rias and Riser. |
Repression Calm[] |
|
Repression Calm (風凪剣, Ripuresshon Kāmu), also known as the Wind-Calming Sword, is a Demon Sword that absorbs wind. Yuuto uses this sword against Karlamine in the Rating Game between Rias and Riser. |
Fire Sword[] |
|
Fire Sword (火の剣, Faia Sōdo) is a demon sword with a blade made of fire with presumably the opposite effects of Flame Delete. |
Destruction Sword[] |
|
Destruction Sword (破壊剣, Desutorakushon Sōdo) is a gigantic two-handed demonic sword that's about more than two meters long and releases an ominous aura with presumably much destructive power. However, it could not compare with Excalibur Destruction, and as stated by Xenovia, wielding it requires a lot of strength at the loss of Yuuto's speed, therefore leaving it unnecessary for his fighting style. |
Dragon Slayer[] |
|
Dragon Slayer (龍殺し, Doragon Sureiyā) is a sword specifically made to kill Dragons. It is the most difficult kind of Demon Sword to produce, as Kiba states that he originally started developing it to stop Issei, should he ever go berserk in Juggernaut Drive again. After Issei attained Cardinal Crimson Promotion, Kiba stopped working on it, but started to develop them once again in order to defeat Siegfried's dragon-based Twice Critical Sacred Gear. |
Sword of Betrayer[] |
 Yuuto forming the Sword of Betrayer. Sword of Betrayer (双覇の聖魔剣, Sōdo obu Bitoreiyā), also known as the Holy Demonic Sword of Twin Supremacy (双覇の聖魔剣, Sō ha no Hijiri Maken), is the X Side Balance Breaker of Yuuto Kiba for Sword Birth. During the fight against Freed Sellzen, he was able to "merge" his Sacred Gear with Light Container, which contained the spirits of his deceased comrades from the Holy Sword Project. Because of this, it'd resulted in the development of a sword with the attributes of a Holy Sword and a Demon Sword, dubbed the Holy Demonic Swords.[3] Though a fusion between these opposing forces was be impossible, but it became possible because of the death of God of the Bible and the original Four Satans, thus ending the balance.[4] As such, Kiba can now create numerous Holy-Demonic Swords that has different attributes, in addition to being as strong or stronger than the Fused Excalibur Freed wielded. It became possible for him to produce Dragon Slayer Swords, the most difficult to create for either Blade Blacksmith or Sword Birth. Since Kiba managed to undergo a mental growth, removing the shadow from the blades, it became possible to absorb Holy Power using its demonic attribute; in addition to absorbing Demonic Power using its holy attribute, thus strengthening it. |
