Item from Final Fantasy VII by Square Enix
Cloud's signature weapon in Advent Children — a modular blade system of six interlocking swords that can be combined into one massive weapon or separated for versatile multi-blade combat techniques.
The Fusion Sword represents Cloud's evolution as a warrior beyond the Buster Sword's legacy. Designed for versatility, the weapon system allows Cloud to adapt his fighting style mid-combat — wielding the full assembled blade for heavy strikes or separating into multiple swords for the Omnislash Version 5 technique. In Advent Children, Cloud uses the separated blades to devastating effect against Kadaj's gang and ultimately against Sephiroth himself. The sword's modular nature reflects Cloud's growth — where the Buster Sword was inherited, the Fusion Sword is wholly his own.
When assembled, a large broadsword reminiscent of the Buster Sword but sleeker and more angular, with visible seam lines where the component blades interlock. When separated, six distinct blades of varying sizes from a massive core sword to small auxiliary blades.
