{{Q|Every Keyblade master is bequeathed a Keyblade of his very own. With the passing of time, as you can imagine, more and more Keyblades were forged to be handed down. But of all the Keyblades in existence, Master Xehanort's is the most ancient.|Young Xehanort on his future self's Keyblade.}}
The '''No Name''', also known as {{nihongo|'''Master Xehanort's Keyblade'''|マスター・ゼアノートのキーブレード<!--cite ultimania-->|Masutā Zeanōto no Kīburēdo}} and {{nihongo|'''The Gazing Eye'''|見つめる目|Mitsumeru Me}}, is the default form of [[Luxu]]'s [[Keyblade]] that appears in ''[[Kingdom Hearts Birth by Sleep]]'', ''[[Kingdom Hearts 3D: Dream Drop Distance]]'', ''[[Kingdom Hearts χ]]'', and ''[[Kingdom Hearts III]]''. It was handed down over time, becoming the most ancient surviving Keyblade, and eventually came into the possession of [[Odin]] and his apprentice, [[Xehanort]], who continued to wield it when he became [[Terra-Xehanort]]. A digital simulation of the Keyblade is wielded by [[No Heart]], the [[Mirage Arena]] simulation of Xehanort. It is also utilized by the [[Replica Xehanort|replica incarnation]] of Terra-Xehanort.


Although Master Xehanort does not often draw his Keyblade, whenever he does fight he wields his Keyblade in this form, even after becoming Terra-Xehanort. Xehanort often uses this Keyblade to channel his own dark magic, but as a Keyblade, the weapon itself also possesses the ability to lock and unlock hearts. Master Xehanort once used this ability to extract the dark half of [[Ventus]]'s heart from his body, creating [[Vanitas]], and then again during the final battle at the [[Keyblade Graveyard]], in order to extract his own heart and allow him to take over Terra's body and become Terra-Xehanort. However, during his battle with Aqua, Terra's heart begins throwing off Master Xehanort's control, forcing him to use his Keyblade on their shared body to seal away their hearts, also causing them to lose the Keyblade.<ref>'''''Kingdom Hearts Birth by Sleep'', Final Episode''': "In a desparate move to rid himself of Terra once and for all, Xehanort turned his own Keyblade on himself, and began to sink into the pool of darkness that spilled forth."</ref> After this, Master Xehanort's Keyblade vanishes, though it is possible that Xehanort was able to regain it later, allowing him to unlock the [[Keyhole]] of [[Radiant Garden]].{{fact}}<!--cite to BBS Ultimania 20 mysteries-->
==Story==
===''Kingdom Hearts χ Back Cover''===
The Keyblade was given to [[Luxu]] by the [[Master of Masters]] when he received his assignment. The Master had placed his own [[Gazing Eye]] within the blade, granting him the knowledge of anything the eye would observe throughout the ages. Luxu initially misunderstood the Master's explanation as the Keyblade being named the "Gazing Eye", but when the Master clarified that the Keyblade had "no name", Luxu playfully named it accordingly. In order to spread its purview and write the [[Book of Prophecies]], he assigned Luxu and the Keyblade the role of leaving town with a mysterious [[Black Box]], becoming a neutral observer to the events that would soon rock [[Daybreak Town]], and passing down the Keyblade to his own apprentices so that it would survive through the ages.<ref>'''''[[Kingdom Hearts χ Back Cover]]''''', '''Masters of Masters''': "Anyway, about your role. You need to pass down that Keyblade to your apprentice, and then him to his, so that my eye can see the future."</ref>
 
===''Kingdom Hearts χ''===
When [[Foreteller Ava]] tracks Luxu down and accuses him of being the traitor sowing discord between the [[Union]]s, he brandishes the Keyblade at her.<!--storylink to correct mission/chapter-->
 
Luxu and the Keyblade observed the final moments of the [[Keyblade War]] at the [[Keyblade Graveyard]], granting the Master of Masters knowledge of the event.{{storylink|Kingdom Hearts 0.2 Birth by Sleep -A fragmentary passage-}}
 
===Between ''Kingdom Hearts χ'' and ''Kingdom Hearts Dark Road''===
Per Luxu's assignment, the Keyblade was passed down from master to apprentice, {{storylink|Destiny}} with Luxu transferring his [[heart]] from vessel to vessel to keep watch over the Keyblade.{{storylink|Secret Reports}} No Name was also used as a medium for the Union leaders to travel into the future, along with Luxu’s memories.
 
===''Kingdom Hearts Dark Road''===
During [[Xehanort]] and [[Eraqus]]'s apprenticeship at [[Scala ad Caelum]], the No Name was used by their Keyblade Master, [[Odin]], who primarily hangs it above his desk. At the end of his Mark of Mastery exam, Xehanort inherits the No Name.
 
===''Kingdom Hearts Birth by Sleep''===
Master Xehanort does not often draw his Keyblade, but when he needs to engage in battle or use the Keyblade's powers, he uses this Keychain to do so.
 
When [[Terra]], [[Ventus]], and [[Aqua]] confront him at the Keyblade Graveyard, Master Xehanort transforms his Keyblade into an orb of [[light]] and uses it to reveal [[Kingdom Hearts]] floating above.<ref>'''''[[Kingdom Hearts Birth by Sleep]]'', Keyblade Graveyard''': "Xehanort flashed a crooked smile as he changed his Keyblade into an orb of light which raced into the sky, parting the thick clouds above and revealing Kingdom Hearts."</ref> Afterward, he uses his blade to battle Terra and trick the youth into embracing [[darkness]], allowing him to extract his own heart and possess Terra's [[body]]. This gestalt being, [[Terra-Xehanort]], retains usage of this Keyblade and wields it against the [[Lingering Will]] at the Keyblade Graveyard and Aqua at [[Radiant Garden]]. When Terra's heart begins throwing off Xehanort's control, Terra-Xehanort is forced to use this Keyblade on his body in an attempt to rid himself of Terra's heart. <ref>'''''[[Kingdom Hearts Birth by Sleep]]'', Final Episode''': "In a desperate move to rid himself of Terra once and for all, Xehanort turned his own Keyblade on himself, and began to sink into the pool of darkness that spilled forth."</ref>
 
===Between ''Kingdom Hearts Birth by Sleep'' and ''Kingdom Hearts''===
During the descent of Radiant Garden into darkness, Terra-Xehanort regains this Keyblade and uses it to transform [[Ansem the Wise]]'s apprentices into the founding members of [[Organization XIII]].{{storylink|Kingdom Hearts 3D: Dream Drop Distance}}
 
===''Kingdom Hearts Re:coded''===
Following his revival, [[Braig]] speaks with the time-traveling [[Young Xehanort]] about Master Xehanort's plans. Over the course of this conversation, Young Xehanort mentions that this Keyblade is the most ancient Keyblade of all.{{storylink|Destiny}}
 
===''Kingdom Hearts 3D: Dream Drop Distance''===
In order to prevent [[Riku]] from rescuing [[Sora]], Master Xehanort possesses his younger self and wields his Keyblade with a [[Young Xehanort's Keyblade|different Keychain]]. Once Master Xehanort has completely revived, he wields his Keyblade personally with its traditional Keychain, and attempts to place a fragment of his heart inside Sora's comatose body.
 
===''Kingdom Hearts III''===
Master Xehanort uses the No Name during the final battle to fend off Sora and Riku from interfering with his ascent to Kingdom Hearts and forming the [[χ-blade]]. Terra-Xehanort also wields the No Name, first at the Graveyard's entrance in order to confront the Guardians, and later within the labyrinth against Sora, Ventus, and Aqua, fight in which he teams up with [[Vanitas]].
 
Each clash of the [[Seven Guardians of Light|seven guardians of light]] with the [[Real Organization XIII|thirteen seekers of darkness]] creates a replica of the No Name around Master Xehanort's high spot over the labyrinth, of which thirteen are needed in order to forge the [[χ-blade]]. By finishing off [[Kairi]] and provoking Sora's rage, he causes the last clash between Sora and himself, thereby creating a thirteenth No Name and turning his own into the χ-blade. Later, he summons this Keyblade within [[Scala ad Caelum]] upon assuming his armored form. Xehanort discards it in favor of the χ-blade for his final fight against Sora.
 
After his defeat, [[Xigbar]], Luxu's vessel, regains ownership of it, wielding it while he called the [[foreteller]]s to his location in the Keyblade Graveyard.
 
===''Kingdom Hearts Melody of Memory''===
In a memory-based replica of [[The Final World]], a vision of Master Xehanort wields the No Name when attacking Kairi.


==Design==
==Design==
Master Xehanort's Keyblade has a spiky, black guard resembling demonic wings, a horned, demonic head just above the handle, two barbed shafts, and teeth resembling a battle axe split into three almost claw-like protrusions. It resembles the [[Oblivion]] Keyblade to a degree, but with two shafts and a different head. It also contains two demonic, blue eyes; one above the handle and the other one on the head, similar to that of the [[Soul Eater]], [[Way to the Dawn]], and [[Void Gear]]. Its shaft and head are adorned with several twisting, silver patterns. Master Xehanort is capable of converting his Keyblade into an orb of dark energy, which is shot into the sky to summon [[Kingdom Hearts (world)|Kingdom Hearts]]. No Heart has displayed the ability to detach the head of the Keyblade to form an impenetrable barrier, as well as tranform the Keyblade into a claw-like weapon, a [[wikipedia:greave|greave]], or a pair of wings that allow flight. His Keyblade possesses a [[Keychain]], which has a black charm with another demonic blue eye upon it.
The No Name has a dark black handle with a raised spiral carved around it. Its pommel and guard resemble black, demonic wings. The base of the blade is an etching of a goat,{{?}}<!--add ref note about horned lion from ultimania--><ref>'''''[[Kingdom Hearts 0.2 Birth by Sleep -A fragmentary passage-]]'', Story menu:''' "His hands rest upon the hilt of a Keyblade decorated with the emblem of a goat."</ref> and the shaft is formed from two black, barbed blades, etched with a white icon resembling a bramble of thorns. The teeth are formed in the shape of a demonic wing, and are set with the Master's [[Gazing Eye]]. Unlike the Keyblades of the [[Master of Masters]]' other apprentices, it lacks [[Terra's Mark]]. The Keychain is made of small, grey links, and the token is an entangled, grey talisman with an additional Gazing Eye.
 
The Keychain can formchange into an impenetrable barrier, a claw-like weapon, a pair of gauntlets and {{w|greaves}}, <!--source? a gun mechanism, -->a pair of wings that allow flight, or an orb of light.<!--Xehanort flashed a crooked smile as he changed his Keyblade into an orb of light which raced into the sky, parting the thick clouds above and revealing Kingdom Hearts.-->
