Powers and Abilities

Akira Hongo is the premier karate master inside Yami and is considered alongside Shio Sakaki and Suzuki Hajime to be the greatest karate master in the world. Even when he was younger Sakaki mentioned that Akira knew all of his moves and had virtually master karate when he met him. The two have a rivalry with Akira having 126 wins versus Sakaki's 125 wins and 1 draw meaning Akira is at least on par with or slightly better than Sakaki though by the end Shio Sakaki had chosen Katsujinken while Akira had chosen Satsujinken meaning Sakaki had to hold back from killing him. Akira did kill Suzuki in their duel. Akira is noted to be one of the strongest of the One Shadow Nine Fists and the best at raising disciples since his , Sho Kano, was chosen as the leader of Yomi and given training from every master. Diego Carlo acknowledges Akira as a better fighter. Akira is a Sei-type fighter meaning he stays calm and tries to out think and out skill an opponent, but Akira will let his anger fuel his attacks in certain situations like while fighting Silcardo Jenazad who was insulting his dead disciple. Akira has great strength being able to create craters with his kicks, lift heavy training equipment with no effort and pierce through human bodies with ease. His speed is also impressive being able to create afterimages. Akira is a very tenacious fighter and a master tactician. A good display of this is his battle with Jenazad who Akira acknowledges as a better fighter, but Akira was able to deal a mortal wound by taking one himself though using a breathing technique to come out alive long enough to get medical attention. As a testament to his skill Shio Sakaki, Shigure, and even Hayato Furinji acknowledge him as a very dangerous individual.
