Introduction
Yamato seems to be exceptionally capable with offensive applications of Busoshoku, having given us a couple of the more impressive offensive feats of pure Busoshoku we've gotten from non swordsmen.

Zoro has much crazier feats, but his feats (bar slicing the Wano coastline) also incorporated his swordsmanship.


Offensive Barriers
Busoshoku can be flowed outwards from the body (or chosen weapon) form a barrier. This barrier can be used offensively:


There are several examples of the Busoshoku flow being used this way.

Boa Marigold used it to deflect Luffy's Jet Stamp:


Sentomaru used it to attack Luffy:


Rayleigh used it to block the Elephant's attack and knock it down:


Hyougoro used it to crush Alpaca Man:


One thing that all the above uses of barriers for offence have in common is that they are very limited to close range applications.


Yamato is also capable of flowing her Busoshoku to create offensive barriers, but unlike in the above instances, she has no such range limitations:


Interestingly, Sasaki was quite alarmed to witness this display from her:


In close Ranged applications of Busoshoku barriers, we see her decimate Wano forged thick steel shields:



Busoshoku Projectiles
Beyond merely flowing Busoshoku to create barriers, one can shape/mold it to form a projectile for more focused damage without the range restrictions.

This appears to be a much higher level of offensive Busoshoku as we've only seen two examples of this so far. One of them was from the Pirate King Gol D. Roger himself.

His Kamusari:


The other of course was from Yamato.

Her Narikabura Arrow:


Sasaki is once again showed to be alarmed (to an appropriately greater degree) when he witnesses her Busoshoku:


As an aside, I imagine that Busoshoku projectiles is how Top Tier marksmen like Beckman fight.


Conclusions
Yamato appears to be an incredibly proficient Busoshoku specialist. She's capable of utilising a form of Busoshoku we had previously only seen from the Pirate King Roger.

Her Busoshoku also has decent hype given how Sasaki reacted to her on the two occasions she used it.

However, she could not use the penetration Busoshoku Luffy used to remove her cuffs. I am guessing that it's one of:
  1. Busoshoku projectiles are a different Advanced application of Busoshoku flow.
  2. Busoshoku projectiles are an evolved higher form of Busoshoku barriers.
  3. They aren't Busoshoku based attacks and are actually Haoshoku based.


P.S: @Sentinel, @playa4321, @Topi Jerami, @Bogard, @TheAncientCenturion, @Garp the Fist, @Aknolagon, @nik87: the amazing Busoshoku expert in Kaido's crew is not King, it's Yamato.

Yamato > King.

I want Yamato to brawl with her fists arms and legs etc... along with her weapon.
Imagine all that plus the armament bursts she'd do...
I'd rather see her focus on her club and kicks in human form.

I want to see her use:
  • Rag Naraku
  • Haki projectiles
  • Thunder Bagua
  • Spear of Elbaf techniques

I want to see her trade and parry blows with Kaido's club.
:blush:

When she's in Hybrid, I'd like to see her use her claws and shred. Imagine haki projectiles in the shape of claw swipes. It would be so epic.

Pretty sure divine departure is AdCoC but good post.
Then Narikabura Arrow is as well:


Both attacks are drawn in the exact same way. Right down to the black lightning gathering around the projectile.

If you want to wank Yamato as being capable of COC projectiles, I'll take it.

My main point is that Yamato is capable of firing haki projectiles that are exactly like Roger's. Whether the projectiles are Busoshoku or Haoshoku does not matter for my wank.

Yamato has Roger tier haki prowess (Roger is the only other person to fire Haki projectiles).

Great thread as usual. Funny enough, I was just thinking this feat doesn't get wanked enough. If my memory serves me right, that was legit the first time a character has used any sort of projectiles/slashes in the series with a weapon other than a sword. Not even my boy Sabo or Kat has shown this feat with their weapons:jordanmf:I swr Yamato is levels:datas:
