After he got out from Akashic World, he returned to his homeplace and learn how People had move on, especially his parents who had abandoned him, including his brother. Also Saika Amagi who had forgetting her adventures time in Akashic World.

Abilities
Knowledge from Saika Amagi: Akira possess all Saika's Knowledge due to her memories being infused toward him during the events of LINK -RISING- and he possess any kinds of personality, movements, feelings, emotions, and communication, while also possessing all of her knowledges and her experience which he now getting used how she had experience or even copying her skills of analyzing, hacking, programming, and more which people believes that the way how he able to hacking the system or anything is much same as how Saika did, because he's now possessed by her knowledge and mental that she had most. This seems that he's adapting those from her.

Not just possessing anything from her, he also possessed by personality, emotions, and communications from someone that really important to Saika which are Tokio, Jyotaro, and AIKA which seems that what she remembered them and what they liked or was also infused to Akira as well which this is the reason why there's contradiction within Tokio's personality in Akashic World, as how Saika viewed him remind what Jyotaro was with he warmly smiled toward her which is simply due to infused of Saika memories of Jyotaro that resulting that he could show the kindness, smart and gentle which is same as her brother did. While for Tokio cases is how his goofy, braves, ridiculous and more was infused toward him which we can see how he was during CHRONO RISING Trilogy, but major errors was shown after old personality of his true self been mixed due to how much he has seen many tragedies, traumas, and suffering that he had witnessed through someone that precious that had died or being betrayed. This also caused him to have Symptoms for Personality Disorder.

And this manifestation is how negative feelings came from Saika as well due to her suffer and despair she had following AIKA's death begin affecting toward Akira as well during in Akashic World, and this shown that Saika was symptoms with a lot of trauma and tragedy that happen to her, and that's how Akira got from her. Thus begin the resulting that the Saika's self being infused within him along with her memories, knowledges and more. While the real Saika still have self, but the truth, she's empty as whole (But her old personality still there thanks to Akashic World, however, her new personality which her feelings experience in Akashic World is still there inside of her) and during the ending of RISING GEAR, he managed to recover her old memories and erasing her experience in Akashic World, which her memories will be to the point before she participating Memory Psychological session.

But the cost is how leads to her Deja Vu syndrome, with her minds and her instincts become a slave of full-love toward Akira, that's a reason why Saika reject Jyotaro's confession after free from the hospital, even refused for making relationship with other man, especially with Tokio, due to the vision of Akira as Tokio and the feels of guilt still haunting her, which means that her very instinct and love are only for Akira and making her mind think that she's a slave of love to Akira. When Akira learning the truth about this he blaming himself for unable to free her completely even after recovering her memories.

Original Doubleware:


 * Online
 * Real World

Martial Arts: His skill of Martial Arts was proven to be something that Military Force, Special Forces, FBI, SWAT and more that around the world would never and ever underestimated with. He learns all Martial arts starting with Karate, Taekwondo, Jujitsu, Kung Fu, Military Technique, CQC, and more, but people though it's impossible to learn all that martial arts in one day or in his age, which is all due to his natural skill to learn and adapt very fast after the Amagi's team programmers messing with his head through psychological manipulation that allows him to unlocked his fully fast adaptation and learn on any kinds of environments, and that includes a Martial Arts, but another fact that he learn this because he was gifted to adapted, but not truly as fast as he was now, he was considered as a fastest learner. But either for that he's still needs to practicing in order to master it completely.

He learned all Martial Arts and moves through Movies, Kenpo's Training, Tournament Boxing, Military and more, along with several hardest and ruthless training made him more invincible, it could defeat over 1000 or even 10.000 peoples or groups of yakuza who wants to defeat him, people though he was a superhuman, but he learned all because of his way of adapt and learning much faster. But another truth that one martial arts, Boxing was came learned from Seventy-Seven or his uncle in Akashic World version, which he could mastered it during RISING GEAR events due to him using Gear Knuckle and the Boxing Martial Arts that he taught Akira, which is why Boxing is the only Martial Arts he use, while all martial arts was just a sub moves for his combination because he needs to practicing it more.

But during his travel around the world for his mission to assassinate the members high ranking of New World Order as Schwarz, the Military Forces described his fighting skills is ultimately flawless, but can also totally deadly for those who tried to fight him, causing them feared him even though they try to fight against him. And it was totally meaningless for them to defeat him, because of his fighting skill was totally brutal.

This martial arts skills is also usable in the online game, but his strength, speed, and accuracy is severely increased due to influenced of Original Doubleware and God Power due to he specifically has power that surpassed the god and even Aura.

Intelligence: Even before participating Akashic Line beta test and Original Doubleware Program Trials, he's IQ was deemed to be lot higher around IQ 200-300 and he was the most promising honor student with his great study exams score, sports, and more. But unfortunately that he thought that he wouldn't even use it ever since the incident, and ever since the trials experiments he didn't bother to use it, until he met with Saika. His gifted highest IQ and smartest intelligence was only he thought as a cursed that brought to his mess, but thanks to her support and advice, he begin slowly starting to use that again.

His highest peak of intelligence with additional power of C.A.S (Creator Administrator System) and the knowledge from Saika, had brought to utilize those with his own intelligence skill, thanks to that during Assassination NWO Worldwide Mission, he able breakthrough system through his hacking and breaking the codes puzzles that no one could ever solved that, and it seems he tries to ties all things together through code which is the reason why he could able to control surveillance network system and it's administrator program that benefits him as a key to succeeded the mission. While he can also allow him to read enemies mind through facial expression, hand gestures, and body gestures which allows him to find whether the enemies lied something or not. One thing is that his detective skills and hunch skill that allows to think smartly and carefully what the enemies had planned and guessing something that leads to the trap, that's the reason that the enemies plan is always failed.

He's good at planning something very carefully, without any failures and as the military forces, and highest intelligence force are very difficult to analyze his movements and reading his plan which is why it's difficult to guessing his plan whether it's trap or not, or no one could ever predict his next move is a reason why they always been tricked by him. But even his powerful intelligence can predict the enemies movements and plans, sometimes there's a chance his prediction might had gone miscalculated without enough proofs or analyze or just being carried away, that's why he still learning through.

But even so, ever since that, he didn't have any certificates of schools because he didn't go through middle and high school, but even so he could writing the hardest exams and got a perfect scores which leads him to get scholarship, that's the reason how he could attend the University same with Saika easily. He's potentially had leadership skills, and organize skill, but he declined that offer, because he didn't want to relied his intelligence and IQ way too much, as he want to be just a normal student following his resigned from his job as a Assassin and using the name of Akihiko Hozuki to live a normal life.

Keen Intellect: When facing adversaries, Akira used his intellect and careful planning to quickly and efficiently take out his foe. As he able to analyze the enemies movements, he planning all this skills he want to use very quickly, even in a dangerous adversaries situation. Although sometimes he might gonna miscalculated it for sure which possibly causing him failed to land an attack so he rely on his martial arts or even his swordsmanship, this also how he able to do that in the online game as well, while he did not want to released his power at 100% and so using Martial Arts, Swordsmanship and Keen Intellect is very helpful to facing the enemies.

Real World: In the real world during the mission, even he had a power of the original doubleware and C.A.S, it's too impossible to charge the enemies on the line at once, that's why he relying on his intelligence, keen intellect, martial arts, Gun shooting, and swordsmanship. However, his assassination mission is really deepest crucial of all and he cannot do much risk to charge ahead against the enemies, so he had few skills he had in order perfecting his blind cover to infiltrated the enemies base and succeed the assassination. He can also used this in online game as well.


 * Stealth: Akira as Schwarz can be able to infiltrated the enemies bases, HQ, or even their places without the security notice, he hides plain in sight and using CQC, shooting guns, or stabbing their necks in order to avoid the contact with other security for the hostiles. He planning this very carefully to avoid arises any suspicious or any damages, and do it silently to avoid enemies sight of him. According to the military's forces that no one ever saw how he able to get pass through security even thought they already arise a tight security, even they already maximize their security very tightly, and it's very considered that he able go through all security level system by also means that kill any witnesses in order to get through.
