Iai is a Fusion Ability, unique to the Warriors of Darkness. It combines the Dark Knight's Final Thrust attack with the Summoner's Odin.

The Ninja Jinnai is seen using Flash several times in the game, which has a similar effect of slicing the target apart. However, the player cannot command Jinnai to use this attack in battle, and it is not an ability the player can gain by using the Ninja class.
