Po Bidau Gustang/Abilities and Powers

Powers and Abilities
As one of the Great Warriors, also an Irregular who climbed the Tower with Zahard, Gustang is clearly a terrifyingly powerful High Ranker, with normal residents of the Tower being completely incomparable to him. Although his ranking is rather low among the Great Warriors, as the 14th top Ranker in the Tower, Gustang still holds a massive amount of power and skill. Simply his presence alone caused Madoraco, a powerful FUG High Ranker, great fear, with Madoraco stating Gustang could effortlessly destroy him and the section of FUG that were associated with him if they tried fighting him.

Gustang's tremendous power was sufficiently great that when he arrived at the Floor of Death, he was able to paralyze Hoaqin when he had the power of all the souls of the Floor, with White noting his pressure felt similar to that of his father, Arie Hon and also cause great shaking, even alerting Urek Mazino.

A true testament to Gustang's extraordinary strength was how during his attack on the Lo Po Bia Mothership, he single-handedly destroyed dozens of the Lo Po Bia Family Battleships and only retreated because he decided his objective was accomplished anyway. Otherwise, he was regarded as fully capable of destroying the entire Lo Po Bia Family Mothership, and even Lo Po Bia Kirin, one of the two Top Tamers deemed capable of fulfilling the position if the Family Head is absent, was unwilling to engage Gustang.

Similar to Lo Po Bia Traumerei, Gustang seems to have the passive ability to incinerate the eyes of anyone who looks at him. With it being implied that only Rankers or High Rankers have the ability to defend against this ability and even then they could still be affacted, unless Gustang consciously prevents this effect from happening.

Later, during his assualt on the Lo Po Bia Family Mothership, despite his massive power, Gustang has displayed the ability to completely and utterly conceal himself to the point that the Lo Po Bia Army, that possess numerous Rankers and High Rankers within it including members of the Lo Po Bia Family,High Ranker Lightbearers and Scouts and floating ships with advance Shinsu sensors and radars, was unable to detect him until he was in the middle of their fleet and was completely unnoticed by them until he was within range to completely decimate their forces.

Supreme Intelligence
Gustang is probably the smartest among the Great Warriors who climbed the Tower with Zahard. He referred to himself as an "Expert of Science and Medicine of the Tower". He was able to cure Rachel who was dying from deadly poison just by looking or staring at her.

Gustang himself continues to research and gain more knowledge of the Tower through the Research Association he established with his family.

Inventions
Due to his immense intellect and resources, Gustang possess incredible engineering skill to create countless extraordinary inventions. It can be said that all the current existing advanced technologies in the Tower were products of his creations, although of course he also had received help from The Workshop in the process. The following are the list of technologies created by Gustang himself:

High-Leech Monk
An artificial doll or puppet with advanced artificial intelligence that was created to guard the entrance door to the Floor of Death. It has a mind of its own, very wise and almost humanlike. It can make important decisions on its own and was able to detect souls of living beings. It can also measure and predict the opponents' strength, calculated the risk or dangers, and even adjusted his power to match the opponent. However, the maximum strength of this puppet is limited as White (without Clone) can destroy it very easily. The strength of this puppet has is likely around B-A Rank Regulars.

Shinsu Reactant
Gustang created this when he was young and still climbing the Tower with Zahard and other Great Warriors. He created this device to help his friends to easily find out about their Shinsu Quality much faster and instantly without having to waste years of their life to find their quality through normal method such as meditation or seclusion. This device is very useful to discover elemental attributes and shinsu shape that a person could possess or their innate hidden talent.

Format Pill
Gustang created this when he was young and still climbing the Tower with Zahard and other Great Warriors. He had long predicted the inevitable rupture within their friendships, and that Zahard will eventually become corrupted to his power. Gustang created the Format Pill and hand it over to Data Eduan as a weapon of choice and only use it as a last resort if things get out of hands. This tiny pill erased or deleted all data inside the Hidden Floor and wipe it out clean to its root. The tiny amount of powers of real King Zahard who came into the Hidden Floor to kill Baam, instantly recognized Gustang as the mastermind of the incident and this caused Zahard to declare war against Gustang as stated within the third article of the latest Three Orders.

Shinsu Resistance
He was able to be completely unaffected by the powerful Shinsu pressure of The Spirit Room.

Shinsu Control
Gustang has an immense and great Shinsu mastery. It is known that he was highly skilled in using Shinsu to assist and act as a "Support" Wave Controller when climbing with other Great Warriors, in contrast to his ex-wife Eurasia Blossom who is an "Offensive" Wave Controller. Gustang's mastery of Shinsu allowed him to be the first one to systematically analyze and classify knowledges about Shinsu. He started and established the Research Association.
 * Levitation: He has the ability to levitate like most Rankers but its a given because he is one of the top strongest Wave Controllers in the Tower given his tower rank 14th, this showed that Gustang has a great mastery to control or manipulate shinsu.
 * Shinsu Teleportation: Gustang has displayed the ability to teleport himself with ease. He can also take others with him, as displayed when he took the warpship containing Bam's friends with him.
 * Shinsu Crescent Scythe: Without even gesturing, Gustang was able to unleash a huge sycthe-like crescent slash that obliterated many ships of the Lo Po Bia Family.
 * Soul Extraction: With just a gesture of his hand, he was able to extract the souls of the Floor of Death that Hoaqin stole.
 * Explosion/Fire: Gustang has repeatedly showcased the ability to seemingly incinerate and cause spontaneous explosions using his cigarettes as a medium. As shown where he caused several of the Lo Po Bia’s Battleships to explode and instantly kill scores of their soldiers. Later, he would easily incinerate Lo Po Bia Pudidy and Lo Po Bia Perseus, two Branch Family Heads of the Lo Po Bia Family and two of its three strongest branch heads. Killing them alongside their Shinheuh, Dobo and Percheron Attica.

Shinsu Quality
To Be Added.

Spells
Gustang had showed that he can use several Spells.

Spell of Memory Deletion
In order to keep the secret of Floor of Death and to restore order and hierarchy after the chaos created by Hell Joe, Gustang erased the memories of every single person who are living on that floor, literally every inhabitants to make them forget everything about the incident of Hell Joe VS Urek Mazino. But Gustang did not erase the memories of people who are related to Baam.

Curses
Gustang has showcased the ability to inflict powerful curses on others. As shown, Gustang has shown immense proficiency in this skill, having shown to have placed a curse on someone with no obvious indicators that he even did so in the first place other than talking to and commanding his victim,

Tongue Curse
As shown when he allowed Lo Po Bia Holan to return to the Lo Po Bia Family Mothership, Gustang is able to curse individuals and cause them great agony unless they satisfy the specific conditions of the curse he placed on them.

This is seen where he cursed Holan to deliver a massage to Lo Po Bia Traumerei himself, and if he did not personally deliver the message with his own tongue to Traumerei, the cursed caused him great pain as a burning sensation was inflicted on his tongue. As shown, the pain of the curse was strong enough to slowly cause enough stress and agony to Holan to make him psychologically unstable, causing him to lash out and go on a rampage.

Later, an additional effect of this curse was that Gustang could also compel its victim to rely his own voice and send a personal message once the intended recipient of the message was present. As seen where Holan was forced to say Gustang’s message to Traumerei against his will when he appeared before him despite Holan’s attempts to stop his tongue.

Items
Like with the other Family Heads, Gustang possess a vast array of powerful and unique items and weapons. Of which, he has chosen to give and share to some of his most talented family members to empower them.


 * Tiara's Quill Pen: A powerful item that possess the ability to make whatever is written using it come true. Gustang gave this item to one of his daughters, Po Bidau Tiara, who was powerful and skilled enough to be recognized as a potential candidate to become a Zahard's Princesses had she not refused the offer.
 * Spear of Doom: A powerful Ignition Weapon that Gustang gave to Po Bidau Matte Ha. The spear itself possess the ability to fire a powerful blast of energy strong enough to severely injure a Advance Ranker once ignited.

Blades
Gustang has shown to possess numerous blades of various shapes and sizes that he could summon to his side via blue portals. Gustang was shown to have summoned several such blades to confront Lo Po Bia Traumerei when he confronted him in the Lo Po Bia Family Mothership.

Gustang was shown to primarily use this blades by launching them at his intended targets. Where he would then telekinetically manipulate and control them to slash, cut and stab his opponents. As shown where he fought and butchered Lo Po Bia Traumerei’s animals into chunks of flesh meat pieces. Later, when Traumerei fused together several of his Shinheuh beasts together, Gustang fused and combined all of his blades together, forming a gigantic, box cutter like blade and set it ablaze in order to obliterate the beast.

Arms Inventory

 * Gustang’s Secret Library: A huge, pillar like Arms Inventory possessing numerous slot-shelves in it. As shown, the Inventory possess numerous books collected by Gustang, each of whom possibly possess some sort of powerful ability or supernatural power.
 * Gustang’s Book Labyrinth: Using his gigantic collection of books, Gustang is able to trap and imprison someone in a gigantic maze made out of bookshelves filled with his books. As explained by Lo Po Bia Traumerei, the labyrinth itself is near inescapable and one of the only ways to do so is to read and go through all the books in the labyrinth and deduce the Question Gustang is asking them and from there figure out and find the Answer to it before then giving it to him, otherwise whoever is trapped within cannot escape. And while sufficiently powerful beings such as Traumerei can break out of it by force, he ultimately decided to play along with Gustang’s game. As noted by Traumerei, this labyrinth is one of Gustang’s oldest techniques and during their time climbing the Tower with their companions, Traumerei and him would often play bets on how fast Traumerei could escape from the labyrinth with his animals. Every time Traumerei would beat Gustang using his animals, he would end up making the Labyrinth bigger and more complex in frustration.
