Hakai
A touch of absolute erasure that vanishes both body and soul forever.
Hakai is a formidable technique of absolute erasure, originating from the divine realm of the Gods of Destruction in Dragon Ball Super. Unlike standard energy blasts that merely injure or knock out an opponent, Hakai disintegrates matter and soul alike, leaving nothing behind—not even dust or spiritual residue. This ability represents the ultimate authority of destruction, serving as a cosmic counterbalance to creation and ensuring the universe remains orderly through periodic pruning.

Reader's Guide
Hakai is less an attack and more a direct command to the universe: 'Delete this.' It bypasses conventional durability entirely, functioning as a conceptual erasure that targets both physical matter and the soul simultaneously. Wielding this power demands absolute precision.
