Sun Blade

The Sun Blade (日輪, Nichirin, Viz: Nichirin) is the secret blade forged long ago on a continent that has sunk into the ocean.

The blade was said to have been passed down for generations within the council of swordsmen. Nichirin concealed the blade in the pocket dimension in his pearl necklace and gave it to Atomic Samurai before passing away in the battle against the Monster Association. It has a similar weapon known as the Moon Blade, as it's opposite.

The legend says that the warrior who is in the possession of the Sun Blade and the Moon Blade together will obtain unparalleled power. Bringing that legend to reality is the Council of Swordmasters's longstanding mission.
