Naturally, these individuals are feared across the world, except for Sung Jinwoo, who has always tried to help people with his strength. After being picked by the System, Jinwoo became a completely different person.

He gained new abilities that allowed him to fight against nefarious monsters who threatened the peace of his country. With time, Jinwoo mastered his powers and became stronger than any Monarch or Ruler. Jinwoo primarily utilizes his Shadows in combat, but he has a ton of other abilities that can help him win a fight.

This post contains spoilers for Solo Leveling.

Can Improve In Seconds

Becomes Stronger In The Middle Of A Fight

  • Can surpass high-ranked fighters in mere moments

A lot of people have overlooked Sung Jinwoo's ability to improve, which is how they ended up losing. Ever since becoming the Player, Jinwoo has proven that he can improve at a drastic rate. He could be struggling at the beginning of the fight, but by the end, he would emerge victorious because he surpassed his opponent.

His ability to improve in such a short period also nullifies the battle experience of others. For instance, Kandiaru had decades' worth of experience, but none of that made a difference when he fought Sung Jinwoo. After a brief period of struggling, the latter wiped the floor with his opponent.

Ability To Alter Memories

Can Erase Anyone's Memories

  • Capable of adding new memories

Sung Jinwoo primarily relies on his Shadows and his fists to get the job done, but he also has other means to get the job done. The hero has the power to erase and alter memories of a person. To use the ability properly, Jinwoo needs to make physical contact with his target.

With this skill, Sung Jinwoo can get out of trouble without having to fight. He can also use it to hide his identity from others or share his own memories with them.

Hypnosis

Make People Obey His Commands

Sung Jinwoo In The Manhwa Is A Lot More Dynamic
  • True potential unknown because of limited use

Not many fans remember, but Jinwoo can use hypnosis on other people. That's right, the hero can hypnotize a specific individual into carrying out a task for him. When used on the right person, it can help Jinwoo to undermine an opponent or an organization.

However, Jinwoo hasn't utilized the ability too much, probably because of its underhanded nature. For this reason, it's challenging to learn the limitations of Jinwoo's hypnosis.

Ruler's Authority

Can Incapacitate His Opponents

  • Used to stop high level fighters

Ruler's Authority is a telekinetic ability used exclusively by Rulers and their vessels. Jinwoo didn't initially have Ruler's Authority but rather a lesser version called Ruler's Hands, which he obtained from a runestone. It wasn't until his fight against Kandiaru that the ability improved.

From the Absolute Being to Sung Jin-Woo, the Shadow Monarch, Solo Leveling has remarkably powerful characters.

The Ruler's Authority allows him to stop anyone from moving. He used the ability against the statues in the Cartenon Temple, which completely incapacitated them. At full power, the Ruler's Authority can even be used to inhibit the movement of a Monarch. Another amazing quality about the Ruler's Authority is that it requires no mana whatsoever, so Jinwoo doesn't have to pick between one thing or the other.

Regeneration

Can Recover From Most Injuries

  • Can outlast his opponents

Considering there are so many dangerous individuals in Solo Leveling, it is almost impossible for a fighter not to sustain one or two injuries, even if they are the caliber of Sung Jinwoo. In fact, the hero has suffered numerous injuries in his fights.

But none of them make a difference, as Jinwoo has the power to regenerate from any wounds, which makes it nearly impossible to beat him in combat. However, there is a limit on regeneration as he cannot recover from any injuries to his heart.

Incredible Physical Traits

Is Blessed With Immense Speed And Strength

  • Can overpower gigantic monsters

Sung Jinwoo is one of the few Solo Leveling characters who doesn't require any weapons or special powers to take down his enemies because his speed and physical strength are far superior to most. In most of his fights, Jinwoo utilizes his blistering speed to avoid enemy attacks and bypass their defense. In most of his battles, Jinwoo has blitzed his opponents, leaving them in complete disarray.

Once he has successfully circumvented the defense, Jinwoo makes use of his strength to land devastating blows on his target. The combination of his speed and strength makes Jinwoo nearly invincible. The best display of Jinwoo's physical strength was in Solo Leveling Season 2, when he fought and defeated Beru.

Immunity To Poison

Cannot Be Hurt By Any Poison

  • Complete poison immunity gives him a major advantage in fights

Poison is one of the deadliest weapons in the world, as it can affect a person in various ways. For instance, it can paralyze an individual, leaving them completely defenseless and at the mercy of their attacker. Or it can affect the cardiovascular muscles and lead to heart failure.

However, Jinwoo doesn't have to worry about it at all, because he is immune to all kinds of poisons. Whenever a poison enters Jinwoo's body, it is automatically detected and cleansed. This ability comes in handy, especially while fighting magical creatures within a dungeon.
