Lightning Step

This technique was created by Zatōichi in an attempt to raise his speed significantly. It is taken from the conception of body flicker and chakra flow. The user flows concentrated lightning chakra to his legs and increases the concentration in his feet, enabling him to move with a speed higher than that of a bullet. The speed of the user rises greatly and some say it exceeds that of lightning armour as lightning armour distributes the chakra to the whole body as defense, this technique concentrates this chakra into the legs and feet making them move with great speed. It appears as if the user disappeared in thin air leaving a lightning string behind him, which disappears afterwards. The user bursts the lightning concentrated in his feet from the sole of his foot, giving him even more speed that can reach up to 600 miles per hour, which is astonishing. This technique can be used in succession enhancing the speed of the user over the course of the entire battle.
