Young Toguro is one of the most iconic enemies in YuYu Hakusho story. He becomes the biggest threat that Yusuke must defeat in the Dark Tournament. He has strength that is considered overpowering and is very difficult to beat.
In the past, Young Toguro was Genkai'sgood friend. However, he fell into darkness after his disciples were killed by a powerful demon. He also became obsessed with power. He was willing to turn into a devil so that his strength would not decline even though he was getting older.
Approximately how strong is Young Toguro in YuYu Hakusho? Check the following discussion so you know the answer!
Percentage Power
Basically, Young Toguro has enormous raw power. Although he is a master of martial arts, he is more likely to use his raw power to dish out brutal and aggressive attacks.
Uniquely, Toguro is able to regulate the percentage of his power output in battle, ranging from 0% to 100%. He usually only used a small portion of his strength because he had yet to encounter an enemy that could force him to fight at full strength.
Until finally, Toguro met Yusuke who he thought had potential. He challenges Yusuke to fight against him in the Dark Tournament. He also threatened to kill Yusuke if he refused his offer.
When fighting Yusuke, Toguro showed his 80% ability first. His body became enlarged and full of muscles. In that form, he really intimidated Yusuke and made him cornered.
When it reaches 100%, Toguro's power is truly beyond reason. His appearance also changed to become more frightening until he looked like a devil. He also became increasingly difficult to beat.
Destructive Aura
Toguro can emit an aura that has strong destructive power. By increasing the intensity of his aura, he can destroy his enemy's defenses and even threaten the lives of people around the battle area.
This is clearly visible when Toguro uses 80% percent. He almost killed all the weak demons using just his aura. Only those who have strong spiritual energy can withstand the Toguro's destructive aura.
Soul Absorption
When Toguro uses his power 100%, he has the ability to absorb the souls of those around him. The soul is absorbed through the tube-shaped body part in the shoulder area.
Toguro showed this ability when he fought in the final round of the Dark Tournament. The audience immediately ran away in fear because they didn't want their souls to be absorbed by Toguro.
Finger Flip Bullets
In 100% form, Toguro can launch air bullet attacks just by flicking his thumb. This bullet has a high attack power and can make Yusuke's body fly quite far.
According to Yusuke, the bullet was very heavy. He also felt troubled because he had to fend off a series of bullets fired by Toguro continuously. However, he managed to deal with the attack quickly.
Deadly Arm Sweep
Apart from producing air bullets, Toguro can also release energy attacks by swinging his arms. Thie attack is capable of producing a massive explosion when it hits its target.
Toguro showed this technique to attack Keiko and his friends. However, they all managed to survive thanks to the barrier Puu-chan made.
Regeneration Ability
Even though it is not really highlighted in the story, Young Toguro has the ability to regenerate, although not as great as his older brother. He was hit by a fatal attack from Genkai which destroyed part of his left shoulder.
However, Young Toguro managed to heal the wound and restore it to normal. The same thing happened when he received a spiritual sword attack from Kuwabara. The wound seemed to be healing quickly.
