"(3 warning alarms) Limit Break!"
―Finisher announcement[src]

The Elek Module Billy the Rod (エレキモジュール ビリーザロッド, Ereki Mojūru Birī Za Roddo) is the rod-shaped main weapon of Kamen Rider Fourze Elekstates, accessed through the Elek Switch.

Initially, the Elek Switch only changed Fourze Basestates' right forearm's color from white to gold and armed him with Billy the Rod while he suffered backlash shock from its power. Later, after allowing the Switch's power to course through his body, it allows Fourze to assume Elekstates.

Design[]

Billy the Rod is composed of the following parts:

  • Binary Capacitor (バイナリコンデンサ, Bainari Kondensa): A small battery inside the Lead Shaft. It stores electricity by absorbing ions from the atmosphere and stores the surplus current of Billy the Rod. When performing a Limit Break, it releases it all at once to increase its power.
  • Lead Shaft (リードシャフト, Rīdo Shafuto): The main body of the rod is made of Heliometal. Heliometal's characteristic of amplifying energy allows for powerful electric shock attacks. In addition, the surface is slightly raised to make it easier for the current to flow, allowing electrical energy to be distributed efficiently throughout the entire shaft.
  • Grid Frame (グリッドフレーム, Guriddo Furēmu): The exterior frame that connects the Internal Coil and Lead Shaft. This is where the important circuits that supply electrical energy to the lead shaft are concentrated, and the frame is reinforced by layering metal plates so that it can withstand Fourze's power.
  • Ignition Plug (イグニッションプラグ, Igunisshon Puragu): A connection plug that can be considered the authentication key for Billy the Rod. By connecting it to one of the United Taps, various types of electric attacks using Billy the Rod become possible.
  • Power Trigger (パワートリガー, Pawā Torigā): Billy the Rod's power button. Operating it activates the effects of Billy the Rod.
  • Lightning Processor (稲妻プロセッサ, Inazuma Purosessa): The main CPU that controls the functions of Billy the Rod. It controls Billy the Rod by adjusting the electrical output and preventing it from going out of control.
  • United Tap (ユナイテッドタップ, Yunaiteddo Tappu): There are three internal circuit switching devices in Billy the Rod. They switch the internal circuits that control electrical energy depending on the situation, such as electrifying the lead shaft or discharging electricity in the air.
  • Sequential Grip (シーケンシャルグリップ, Shīkensharu Gurippu): The grip handle of Billy the Rod. It is integrated with the Lead Shaft and is strong enough to withstand the high loads placed on it during an attack.
  • Switch Slot (スロットを切り替えます, Surotto o Kirikaemasu): A supply socket to secure the Astroswitch and safely extract energy. By connecting the Astroswitch "Elek", it is possible to maximize the power of Billy the Rod and activate Limit Break.

Other Features[]

Internal Coil (内部コイル, Naibu Koiru): A circuit located in the center of the base. The main circuit for storing and amplifying electrical energy. It supplies electrical energy to the Lead Shaft.

Functionality[]

It can manipulate powerful electrical energy, using three different types of electric attacks: electrified strike attacks, emitting lightning bullets, and firing electromagnetic nets. By equipping an Elek Switch, you can activate even more powerful Limit Breaks.

Special Attacks[]

In conjunction with the Winch Module, Fourze can perform the Rider Electric Shock (ライダー電気ショック, Raidā Denki Shokku) attack by striking the Winch's cable with Billy the Rod while the Rod's cable is in the left United Tap.

Finishers[]

By setting the Elek Switch into Billy The Rod's Switch Slot located at the weapon's base, Fourze can initiate one of three Limit Breaks depending on which United Tap the Ignition Plug is inserted in.

  • Left socket: Initiates the Rider Ten Billion Volt Break (ライダー100億ボルトブレイク, Raidā Hyaku Oku Boruto Bureiku), where Fourze performs an energized slash.
  • Top socket: Initiates the Rider Ten Billion Volt Shoot (ライダー100億ボルトシュート, Raidā Hyaku Oku Boruto Shūto), where Fourze sends an arc of electricity with enough force to slash through the target with ease. Even the edges of the attack can do damage, as its first usage caused damage to the surroundings.
  • Right socket: Initiates the Rider Ten Billion Volt Burst (ライダー100億ボルトバースト, Raidā Hyaku Oku Boruto Bāsuto), where Fourze slams the tip of Billy The Rod into the ground, electrifying it in order to damage the target.
