'''Cross Slash''', written as "'''Cross-slash'''" in ''[[Kingdom Hearts Chain of Memories]]'', is a recurring technique associated with [[Cloud]]. It allows the user to assault the enemy with three powerful sword strikes which trace out the kanji {{nihongo|凶||Kyō|lit. "Misfortune"}}.
 
'''Cross Slash EX''', called '''Cross Slash+''' in ''Kingdom Hearts Chain of Memories'', is a variation that allows the user to warp next to an enemy before continuing with Cross Slash.
 
'''Cross Slash EX+''' and '''Chain Slash''' are two additional variations that appear in ''Kingdom Hearts Union χ''.

==Mechanics==
In ''Kingdom Hearts Chain of Memories'', Cross-slash is a [[Summon Sleight]]. Using Cross-slash summons Cloud to the battlefield, whereupon he executes a three-hit combo. Although not named, Cross-slash is also the effect of the Cloud [[Summon card]], although he only performs a two-hit combo. When hit, the recoil causes the enemies to slightly hop. In ''Kingdom Hearts Re:Chain of Memories'', the hit causes enemies to recoil by moving backwards after a strike, making it less likely than in the original game for all hits to land.

Cloud often uses Cross Slash as a boss, where he performs a simple triple slash combo (a downward slash, followed by a right-handed outward slash to an upward lifting slash to his left). Any part of the combo can be deflected with [[Guard]] to have Cloud rear back a bit, allowing Sora to get a free combo in.
