"World Trigger" is a popular work serialized in Weekly Shonen Jump and currently being serialized in Jump SQ. The first and second seasons have been broadcast so far, and the long-awaited third season will be broadcast from October. In the work, weapons called triggers are used, and among them, there is a "black trigger" that boasts special performance. In this work, mass-produced weapons are used, but I would like to introduce the cheat item "black trigger" that has special abilities, and introduce the black triggers that are currently known!
World Trigger is a battle work where you fight with mass-produced machines!
First of all, World Trigger is a battle manga in which you fight with mass-produced items of uniform specifications, which is rare for a shonen manga or battle manga. Normally, unique, one-off weapons and abilities that match the characters appear. This is the case with the devil fruits in One Piece and the quirks in My Hero Academia, both of which are published in the same magazine, but World Trigger is a very unusual type of battle manga in which characters fight using mass-produced items of a unified standard and combine weapons and members together.
A special cheat item: the Black Trigger
However, there is something special about World Trigger, which fights with mass-produced items. This is the Black Trigger, a weapon that is incomparably more powerful than mass-produced triggers. A single black trigger is a powerful weapon that can change the course of a battle, but the way to create one is for a skilled trion user to pour all of their trion into it, at the cost of their life. It is said that the outcome of a war depends on whether or not there is a black trigger.
A cheat that can't even stand up to multiple high-ranking borders!
Their performance is on a different level than normal triggers, and black triggers such as Yuma Kuga and Yuichi Jin can defeat multiple A-rank corps members. However, black triggers are selective in their wielder, and not everyone can use them. Of course, there are cases where they are de facto exclusive triggers, but there are also triggers like Fuujin that can be used by a relatively large number of people.
Black Trigger No. 1 Name Unknown User: Kuga Yuma
The black trigger used by Kuga Yuma, one of the main characters who came to this world from the Near World. The black trigger was created by Yuma's father, Kuga Yugo, who created it to help Yuma, who was fatally wounded in the Near World War. Currently, Yuma's dying body is stored inside the trigger, and since it is currently active using the trion body it created, it looks like the 11-year-old he was when he died.
Copying abilities
Yuma's black trigger does not have a specific name, but it is a trigger that copies the abilities of other triggers and performs better than the original. These abilities can be used by an ability called a seal. Normally, the replicas are used as support, allowing for multiple use, but the replicas were removed during the invasion of Aftokrator, weakening the ability. Nevertheless, the ability itself can be used.
Black Trigger Part 2 - Fuujin - User: Jin Yuichi and others
A trigger created by Mogami Souichi, one of the founders of Border. The main user is his disciple Jin Yuichi, but Jin returns it to the headquarters in a deal to have Yuma join Border. Since then, it has been available for use by anyone with the right skills. When Jin uses it, it overwhelms six A-rank members due to its compatibility with the side effect. It was also used by Hidetsugu Miwa during the invasion of Aftokrator, successfully forcing Hyrein and his men to retreat.
Slash Propagation
An ultra-aggressive black trigger with the ability to propagate slashes to objects and attack anywhere within sight. The belt coming out of the blade indicates the number of remaining bullets, and is particularly compatible with Yuichi Jin, who has the ability to predict the future.
Black Trigger No. 3 Name Unknown User: Tsukihiko Amano
The person who created it, its name, and its abilities have not been revealed at this time, making this black trigger shrouded in mystery. However, his combat ability seems to surpass even that of Yuichi Jin when he uses Kazeha, and he is considered the strongest force in Border.
Mysterious Black Trigger
Although it is the strongest black trigger in Border, it has been suggested that when used, it takes on a sinister appearance that cannot be shown to ordinary people. In fact, during the invasion of Aftokrator, he singlehandedly stopped the invasion of the Trion soldiers, but as a result, the battlefield was left empty.
Black Trigger No. 4 Egg Crown (Alector) User: Hyrein
A black trigger used by Hyrein, the captain of Aftokrator's expeditionary force. One of Aftokrator's black triggers, it has the ability to deploy an egg-laying biological trion body, which has the ability to interfere with trion and turn it into a trion cube.
An ultra-powerful trigger for both offense and defense
If you touch the deployed biological trion body, it will turn into a trion cube, so you cannot approach it carelessly, and it will also turn physical attacks that use trion into cubes. Furthermore, it can absorb trion from cubed objects, making it easy to replenish trion. However, it can deal with sniping and long-range attacks that exploit gaps in the trion, but is otherwise nearly invincible. One of the most cheaty in the series.
Black Trigger No. 5: Shadow of the Window (Spiraskia) User: Mira
Black trigger used by Mira, an expeditionary force of Aftokrator. Equipped with warp and communication functions, the black trigger can move and retrieve personnel through the large window. In addition, remote attacks using needle-like weapons are possible through the small window. Although it is not a combat trigger, it is a trigger that is essential for operations in terms of support, and it is said that it was because of this trigger that four black triggers could be mobilized.
A trigger with great strategic significance
At that time, Aftokrator did not have an emergency escape, and if the black trigger user was defeated, there was a risk that the black trigger would be taken away, but with the existence of this trigger, that risk could be almost completely avoided, and the communication function makes it easy to grasp the situation on the battlefield. Although the direct attack power is low, the black trigger is strategically the most important.
Black Trigger No. 6 Star Staff (Organon) User: Visa
A black trigger used by Visa, an expeditionary force of Aftokrator. A black trigger that runs countless blades in a concentric circle around itself. Blades with immense destructive power are deployed at high speed around him, splitting a building in half. A black trigger that combines offense and defense, making it difficult to get close.
Old Man Visa's skills are also incredible
It's an extremely powerful trigger that is difficult to know where to attack, but the user, Old Man Visa, has high experience and skill, making it difficult to even get close with half-hearted skill and tactics. In fact, it took Yuma using the black trigger, a suicidal charge, and a trick using his own Trion body to finally defeat it.
Black Trigger No. 7 Mud King (Bolboros) User: Enedra
Black Trigger used by Enedra, an expeditionary force from Aftokrator. Black Trigger that changes itself into three states: gas, solid, and liquid. Taking advantage of its characteristics, it infiltrates Border, kills six members in the communications room, and then rampages inside the headquarters, but with the cooperation of Suwa Squad, Kazama Squad, and Chief Oshida, the black trigger is analyzed and defeated. After that, it is deemed useless by Mira, who has been transferred to it, and killed, and the black trigger is also collected.
Amazing First-Time Kill Trigger
Using the ability to change into three different forms, it is usually in a liquid state, and slashing and shooting attacks are basically ineffective. Its weak points are its trion supply organs and transmission brain, but these organs are cleverly hidden along with a large number of dummies, and are difficult to identify and destroy due to its hardening guard. This black trigger has the ability to attack from blind spots by taking advantage of the three forms and has a fairly flawless ability. However, although it has high first-time kill performance, it can be dealt with by normal triggers if given time to analyze, and has actually been defeated.
【World Trigger 3rd】Summary of Black Triggers
I have summarized the black triggers that have appeared in World Trigger so far. The concept of World Trigger is to use mass-produced items to work together to deal with powerful enemies, and among them, black triggers are cheat weapons that can greatly change the course of the battle depending on how they are used. However, it is interesting that they are not absolute. New ones may appear in the future, but the appearance of black triggers may mean that someone will lose their life.
