Young Xehanort's Keyblade (青年ゼアノートのキーブレード, Seinen Zeanōto no Kīburēdo) is a Keychain for Master Xehanort's Keyblade, appearing in Kingdom Hearts 3D: Dream Drop Distance.

After Mickey casts a Stopza spell to aid Riku in rescuing Sora from the World That Never Was, the still-reviving Master Xehanort overrides the spell by possessing his younger incarnation and temporarily granting him the ability to wield his Keyblade, though he does so with this specific Keychain. Riku, however, defeats him and sends him retreating, and this Keyblade is not seen again.

Design

Young Xehanort's Keyblade resembles a fusion of No Name and Master Xehanort's Keyblade.

Young Xehanort's Keyblade significantly resembles No Name, in that it is predominantly colored in different shades of blue and is decorated with elaborate, spiked shapes. The tip is modeled after a stopwatch, while the teeth are diamond-shaped spikes that are connected by a black web structure similar to the design on the base of the top spire of Memory's Skyscraper. The Keychain shares the time theme represented in the blade, with an hourglass as its token. The shaft resembles Young Xehanort's Ethereal Blade-like weapons, and the blade features an ever-present glow.

The Keyblade also includes elements from Master Xehanort's Keyblade, such as the demonic wings at the beginning of the shaft, the horned demon head at the end, and the blue demonic eye shared by the Soul Eater, Way to the Dawn, Chaos Ripper, Void Gear and Master Xehanort's Keyblade.
