An ability I thought up at school after I saw episode 20 of Parasyte The Maxim(great show). I'll just assume(like Martialmaniac) that the user has the same capabilities as a Zodiac. Ketsueki Uragiri

Name: Ketsueki Uragiri (literally means Blood Betrayal)

Nen Type: Specialization

Description: The user summons an odachi called [insert name here](could use some help on the name front), which would be unusually small compared others of its kind, which comes with a sheath made entirely of bone(maybe from the spide?). This blade would allow me complete manipulation of blood, mine or other people's, and the specialization nen type factors in because the sword would be able to absord/drink any of the blood it is manipulating. The blood being manipulated would be attached to the blade and would be an extension of the sword whenever I am not using it, increasing its size, however, the blood can be manipulated into any shape I can imagine, such as different weapons like scythes, axes and even things like dragons and other animals.

The big advantage to this ability would be that whenever I cut an opponent, any blood that would be spilled from a cut would be taken by the sword and increase it's strength, allowing larger shapes/weapons to be made.

When absorbing blood, the sword would use it as both sustenance and a source of power, meaning that it would need blood to both feed itself, and increase its strength, allowing it to manipulate more blood and make the blood constructs much stronger.

Also, because it is a living being, the sword has emotions and feelings, and so if someone were to praise it or make fun of it, the sword would react in different ways to them. If it is around someone it despises, it can emit powerful bloodlust and will be more effective at fighting those individuals, but if it were around someone it shows affection to because of the way they treated it, it would be very restrained when fighting them. Since conjured items contain large amounts on nen, it is able to use Zetsu to make it look like it's just a normal blade, ren to increase its power and the strength of its constructs and ten for protection and to prevent rusting and wear and tear, as well as other more advanced nen techniques, meaning when I use Shu on the sword to increase its strength, it can use Ten/Ken to increase its hardness even further. In short, we are to seperate entities, but I am dominent.

The sword would also have different sub abilities including:

Blood Harvest: 

By striking an artery I would be able to draw all of the blood from a creature directly into the sword, however the sword would devour it as soon as it touched the blade at so would only go to strengthen it

Scorching Crimson:

The PH of the blood is changed to make it very acidic, however once the blood is in that state I can no longer control it and it can not be changed back.

Red Reaper:

After dealing a lethal blow, I can draw all of the blood from a creature, but rather than being absorbed by the sword(could still use a name btw), it is instead manipulated by it.

Limitations:

1) I can only manipulate blood that is not being circulated through out a living being.

2) The blood must be connected to the sword in order to be manipulated, however, if I use the blood as a projectile, it with still have Shu attatched to it for 5 seconds.

3) The sword is a living being and so requires blood to feed itself. If it does not feed for too long it will eventually die and I will be unable to use the ability again, however, I would be able to feed it my own blood if I needed to, and entering a state of zetsu would drastically increase the time before it would die of starvation.

4) I can manipulate blood from any creature, however I can not manipulate blood from different creatures at the same time.

5) None of the energy gained from absorbing blood would go to me directly. Only to sword.

6) Once the sword has been drawn, it MUST taste blood. If it doesn't it will try to take some of mine.

7) I can only dematerialize the sword if it is put in its sheath, and the sword will appear in the exact state it was in before it was dematerialized. If it is severely damaged, it can drink blood to repair itself, however, if the blade is completly destroyed, that will be impossible because it absorbs blood throough the blade.

8) The sword can only devour blood with its blade, which acts sort of like a mouth in terms of its use.

9) If the sword begins to reject me(which is possible due to its separate personality), I can have trouble weilding it, and if I can not get it under control, I could completly lose the ability to wield it.
