Blood Mist Shield: Benihime's defensive ability forms an oval-shaped "blood mist shield" in front of Urahara. The barrier is able to block Ichigo's first use of his getsuga tenshō while only slightly eroding, after which Urahara comments that he would have lost an arm were it not for the shield.

Benihime's offensive Ability fires crimson-colored energy blasts. He is also shown to control these blasts, and can even change the intensity of them. Urahara was able to match Ichigo's improvised getsuga tenshō and easily cancel out cero and bala blasts from the Espada Yammy by striking it head-on with this attack after he was able to study the amount of power it took to use it. The energy blast is released with the verbal command "sing". Since he has yet to name the technique it is likely to be far more powerful than shown, as demonstrated when Ichigo learned the name of his Getsuga Tenshō. Knowing and not knowing the name of a technique changes the power of said technique dramatically, and Kisuke has yet to say it's name/face someone very powerful using it.
