Gear 1

A technique developed by Kouwei shortly after realizing the change in the way the present generation of Shinobi fought. Many started using techniques which augment their speed and strength similar to Chakra Enhanced Speed and Chakra Enhanced Strength. Kouwei noticing that the FAD wasn't going away for quite some time decided to come up with his own technique to keep up with the others. However taking it a step further simply trying to outclass the others, which he eventually was able to. His already immense speed allowed him to move at speeds that rival that of the Body Flicker, and so what would happen if he enhanced his speed even further? One could only imagine the possibilities, and the day they'd witness said achievement being reached; they'd be left in awe by the raw speed. Kouwei stands beside some of the world's fastest shinobi because of Gear 1. As the technique deems him with speed comparable to that of a bullet being shot from a 9mm handgun. Averaging about 1100 feet per second. For those who know of Kouwei's strength they'd know to be weary of confronting him when using a technique such as this. However this technique does have a toll on the users body. Using it over and over again in a rapid succession can cause great damage on the users muscles and bones eventually causing the body to "break" from being over-worked.
