Once activated, Divine Dog consists of Repede throwing himself into a vertical spin at his target and then ascending straight upward. Higher levels increase the speed of the rotation, allowing Repede to deal more hits. As with most of the playable characters' burst artes, it comes with four altered artes: Fire though the passive skills "Hell Fire" and "Chain", Earth through "Athenor" and "Crucible", Wind through "Gale" and "Alembic", and Water through "Great Deluge" and "Dispersion". The four altered artes consist of the following:

• Fire: Divine Dog - Blaze (天狼迅牙・狂炎, Tenroujinga Kyouen^?, "Heavenly Wolf's Rapid Fang: Wild Blaze") turns Repede into a fireball. He launches himself at his target and slams him and them into the ground. Higher levels increases the amount of time that Repede is airborne, allowing him to deal more hits.
• Earth: Divine Dog - Tremble (天狼迅牙・震撃, Tenroujinga Shingeki^?, "Heavenly Wolf's Rapid Fang: Trembling Strike") alters the arte to Repede diving into the earth, with leaving only a spike of earth like a shark's fin above ground. He then slams repeatedly into his target before emerging like missile. Higher levels increase the duration and number of hits.
• Wind: Divine Dog - Savage (天狼迅牙・宙覇, Tenroujinga Chuuha^?, "Heavenly Wolf's Rapid Fang: Air Ascent") lets Repede repeatedly cut through his target while they are prone in the air, leaving air slashes behind. He finishes by shooting straight up from beneath his target, sending them further into the air. Higher levels increase the number of times that Repede cuts through his target.
• Water: Divine Dog - Whirlpool (天狼迅牙・水禍, Tenroujinga Suika^?, "Heavenly Wolf's Rapid Fang: Flood Disaster") allows Repede to cut through his target and then cause water to geyser up in his wake and drag his target back to him. Higher levels increases the distance Repede travels, allowing more geysers to form.
