Mok shook his head at his guess. "Well I guess if you consider the color and kido that's blue then a lot would work, but Bakudos are more so to stop enemies or halt them. What I did would have halted an enemy for good. Its Byakurai and Tessho, both fairly common among just about everyone in the Seireitei. You may think that it was simply the force that did it, but it wasn't, what I did was slam my palm against the tree and instead of shooting it, I transferred it into the object, which resulted in them blowing up from the inside. Of course you could shoot it out but then its just a regular Byakurai."

gio simply nodded attentively. energy transferal, byakurai, tessho. it was nice, but barely impressive. Gio didnt agree with the whole 'bakudo are only for stopping and halting' but its probably because he's seen and done some interesting things with kido himself. What Gio would admit to being impressive is the captains level of control. Blending the two techniques isnt the hard part, dulling them down to such a small level of power was. "thats nice but, i have to ask. would you say you need both the kido and the hakuda to be the same level. like tessho and byakurai are common. so would a hybrid move using raikoho, be usable with tessho or would you need a higher level skill to compensate for the power?"
