Cardinal Virtue (風林火山, Fūrinkazan, lit. "Wind, Forest, Fire, and Mountain") is one of Lexaeus's weapons in Kingdom Hearts 358/2 Days. Cardinal Virtue+, the upgraded version, is his most powerful weapon. To wield Cardinal Virtue, Lexaeus must have the Pandora Gear attached.

Etymology

The weapon's English name refers to the cardinal virtues of Christianity: Justice, prudence, temperance, and fortitude.

Its Japanese name is a reference to a quote from Sun Tzu's The Art of War which was used as a battle standard by the Sengoku period daimyo, Takeda Shingen. In the original passage, the quote reads:

"Let your rapidity be that of the wind, your compactness that of the forest.
In raiding and plundering be like fire, be immovable like a mountain."
