Spirit Sword

The Spirit Sword is an Energy Blade technique unique to Vegito, the Potara fusion of Goku and Vegeta. The user concentrates ki into a razor-sharp blade extending from their hand, capable of cutting through virtually anything. Unlike physical swords, the Spirit Sword can be extended or shortened at will, and its cutting power scales with the user's energy output. In its Super Saiyan Blue incarnation during the Zamasu arc, the blade crackles with divine energy and can pierce even immortal flesh.

Vegito introduces the Spirit Sword during his legendary fight against Super Buu (with Gohan, Gotenks, and Piccolo absorbed) in the Buu Saga. After thoroughly dominating Buu in every physical exchange, Vegito decides to humiliate him further by manifesting a blade of pure energy from his hand. He proceeds to impale Super Buu clean through, leaving the Majin skewered and helpless.

"Shut up and listen," Vegito tells the pinned Buu. "I know you've stolen enough brains now to realize the truth. I've totally owned you in this fight, and you can't deny that!" It is pure Vegito: the cockiness of Vegeta married to Goku's fighting instinct, delivered with a sword through the enemy's torso.

In the Dragon Ball Super anime, Vegito Blue wields the Spirit Sword against Fused Zamasu, slashing through the corrupted god's body with divine-ki infused cuts. Vegeta also uses a version of the technique during his manga battle with Fused Zamasu, showing that the blade is not exclusively tied to fusion.

The Spirit Sword serves as a thematic precursor to Future Trunks's Sword of Hope, the Spirit Bomb-infused energy blade he uses to bisect Fused Zamasu in the anime. Both techniques represent the concentration of overwhelming energy into a single cutting edge, and both are deployed against an enemy who believes himself unkillable. The Spirit Sword is arrogance weaponized; the Sword of Hope is determination crystallized. Together, they form a lineage of ki-blade techniques that define some of Dragon Ball Super's most climactic moments.

In games, the Spirit Sword appears under names including "Beam Sword Slash" in the Budokai series and "Vegito Sword" in Dragon Ball Fusions. It has been a staple of Vegito's moveset in nearly every game he appears in.
