Karakuri Balls[]

Karakuri Ball 01: Sword Slasher[]

Sphere-01

Sword Slasher

The Hurricanegers must fuse the Shinobi Medals on their Hurricane Gyros to make this weapon, but KabutoRaiger has also used a Shinobi Medal with "鉾" (halberd) on it. The Sword Slasher is a dragon-themed sword and the primary weapon of Senpuujin. Its finisher is Copy Illusion Slash (分身幻斬り Bunshin Maboroshi Giri) attack where Senpuujin forms two illusionary copies which then slash the opponent three times from different angles. While the Gouraigers have their own copy of the Sword Slasher, they rarely use it, nor does Gouraijin have a special attack with it. In Abaranger vs. Hurricaneger, with their powers combined, their powers helped to create a golden version called the Mahoro Slasher (マホロスラッシャー), which was wielded by AbarenOh, for the Split Drill Slasher attack which is the same finisher that Senpuujin has with this weapon.

In Abaranger vs. Hurricaneger, he was used again, but Gourai Senpuujin was beaten and seperating five components and Fūraimaru. He returns in Kaizoku Sentai Gokaiger, once again retaining the ability to combine with a mecha, as he now combines with GokaiOh to form Hurricane GokaiOh.

Legendary Karakuri Balls[]

Fuuin no Ishi (Seal Stone)

Fuuin no Ishi (Seal Stone)

The Fuuin no Ishi (Seal Stone) is a powerful gem Sandaru splits in half revealing a Shinobi Medal-like stone. It became the Ikari no Ya no Medal (Raging Arrow Medal). Sandaru seeks out the Nageki no Yumi no Medal that's possessed by Lady Gozen.

Ikari no Ya[]

An arrow with a sword-like grip at the end of its shaft, the keystone of Astrom's Karakuri Ball technology. However, without the Nageki no Yumi, a weak user goes into a berserk rage. It was obtained by Sandaru, who eventually used the rage of others to unseal it and was in Jakanja's hands until the Hurricanegers got it momentarily until Sandaru reclaimed it. After being used, the Ikari no Ya got sucked into the vortex it brought about, with the Hurricanegers shooting it out to negate the wormhole. Rather than being marked with a kanji, its Shinobi Medal resembles the pattern of a sand dollar.

Nageki no Yumi[]

A bow that allows the wielder to safely use the Ikari no Ya. Known as the Dark Stone (闇石 Yami Ishi), it came to Earth during a meteor shower and became the keystone in the creation of the technologies used by the Hurricanegers and the Gouraigers. It was sealed in Gozen until Sandaaru managed to break the seal and use the Ikari no Ya to force the Nageki no Yumi out. Once used by Boss Tao Zant, the Nageki no Yumi was regained by the Hurricanegers, who use it to reverse the doomsday process. Rather than being marked with a kanji, its Shinobi Medal is marked with a complex hexagonal pattern that was used as the crest of the Space Unified Ninja School.
