Moon Release: Gibbous

When unlocking the Third stage, 3/4 the user's pupil glows -to resemble gibbous- his/her hair's color becomes a bright white, a vortex-like charka surround him/her, he/she gains great speed, his/her sword becomes even more brighter, and this time with a stab instead of a swing, it creates a great gibbous-looking hole in the target, enough to counter a kage-level opponent

Trivia

 * Ahmed calls this stage "The Piercer stage"
