After the chakra has begun to flow down the blade, the user creates a series of quick and fast slashes. These slashes are said to be faster than the human eye. Although apparently those with enhanced vision via say Dōjutsu have been able to follow the blades movements.

After these rapid movements are created. A force of wind is created of each strike. These blades of wind a propelled away from the user of the jutsu at a high velocity. This bladed strikes have potential to slash through many forms of defense and go out to a range of about 10 meters before dying off.

This technique can be applied at a close range in with conjunction of the blade to create even more devastating and effective techniques. Riichiro is said to have a reaction time of 0.01. This effects not only his base reaction time, but chakra reaction as well. Effectively he can use this technique in a moments notice.
