Poseidon (ポセイドン, Poseidon?) was the Greek god of the seas. He despised many things, from humans to gods, considering them inferior to him.

He was the third fighter in Ragnarök‎ on the side of the gods, being defeated and killed by the Einherjar of humanity Kojiro Sasaki.

(Long messages)

Poseidon has the appearance of a young man with a slim build, has wavy blonde hair, blue eyes and pale skin. He wears tight navy blue armor that exposes part of his chest and abdomen, he wears a golden choker on his neck, and on his hands he wears a pair of green fingerless gloves with cyan wristbands. At her waist she wears a long white tunic with circular gold prints. Underneath this tunic he wears loose blue pants and wears green boots which reach up to his knees. His most distinctive feature is his expressionless face which he has had since the moment he was born and which rarely shows any emotion. In addition to this, he was always seen carrying with him an intricately detailed trident which was almost as long as his body.

Poseidon was a fearsome and ruthless god, he showed no signs of doubt or remorse when impaling his older brother Adamas, keeping his face expressionless. He considered humans to be filth, although he also thought the same about the vast majority of gods. This could be seen when he entered the combat arena, declaring that both the gods and the humans in the stands were just trash. His hatred towards them would later be seen again when he looked at them with contempt right after being praised during his fight against Kojiro. For Poseidon, a god does not need armies, allies or friends since according to his words, gods must be perfect beings from the moment they are born, so anyone who requires any of those things represents a dishonor to the title of "god." He did not usually express any emotion, maintaining a cold and severe attitude to the point where Loki describes him as someone bitter and without a sense of humor, however when Kojiro mocks the perfection of a god, Poseidon was somewhat upset due to his ideals had been questioned by a human. He also proved to be someone superb by underestimating and insulting Kojiro throughout the fight, however just at the moment of his defeat Poseidon would let himself be overcome by anger, cursing Kojiro before dying.

Ragnarok: Third Round
Poseidon is first shown to us in the third round, fighting against humanity's strongest swordsman; Kojiro Sasaki. During the initial minutes of the battle, Kojiro was analyzing Poseidon before beginning his attack. But seeing no possible opening, he sits in front of the god thinking that he doesn't want to die while the audience is confused by this action. Sasaki decides to make the first move to attack Poseidon who

Kojiro attacking Poseidon
Poseidon manages to dodge it but would lose a few strands of hair in the process. Poseidon then decides to counterattack using his Amphitrite technique. Kojiro would manage to predict and dodge each stab while scanning the god. Seeing that the swordsman came out unscathed from his attack, Poseidon begins to whistle and chooses to use more strength and speed in his next move, managing to injure the human on the left side of the abdomen with a stab. Poseidon then insults him and mockingly tells him that he expected more from him. At that moment, the audience on the gods' side began to praise Poseidon, calling him "DDD" (God of Gods) to encourage him, but he quickly turns his gaze towards them and looks at them with contempt, causing them to shut up. Seeing this, Kojiro asked him why he did not accept the support he is receiving. Poseidon replied that it is unnecessary for those who have reached perfection like him. The human, upon hearing this, points out that the existence of a god is very sad. Poseidon seems to be annoyed by those words and immediately decides to resume their fight by jumping into the air to launch a flurry of attacks with his Demeter Shot Chione technique. The fight drags on as Sasaki continues to analyze Poseidon but the latter only increases the power and speed of his movements further becoming almost unpredictable for his scanning ability, managing to split his sword in half. At this moment the battle briefly stops and although

It seemed that Kojiro had already lost this one takes the parts of his broken weapon with both hands to turn them into two swords. The human who now wields two swords decides to continue fighting while Poseidon still looks at him with disdain. As the fight progresses, Kojiro uses the techniques of the swordsmen he fought in the past, leaving Poseidon covered in wounds but he only begins to whistle again while smiling arrogantly, then decides to use his ultimate technique Medusa Alope Demeter. Kojiro begins to be overwhelmed by the rain of attacks but when he was about to give up he hears how all his fellow swordsmen and humanity encourage him not to give up. Encouraged by this, he continued to resist as his scanning ability evolved to the point where he was able to read and feel all existence around him, managing to get close to Poseidon. Once Kojiro stands in front of the god, he resumes his fight, managing to cut Poseidon's trident along with his right arm. The god is not fazed by this and with his left hand takes his broken trident to continue attacking, but Sasaki would also manage to cut off Poseidon's left arm, who could only continue holding the tip of the trident with his teeth to try to attack again. However, Kojiro had already surpassed Poseidon and finishes him off by making a cross cut on his chest with his swords. Poseidon could not believe that a human had been able to beat a perfect god like him. Frustrated and angry, he curses Kojiro as he falls dead in pieces. The gods were shocked to see how a human had murdered one of their own while humanity celebrated its first victory at Ragnarök.

Trident (トライデント, Toraidento): This was blue with gold details adorned with interdigital membranes and a turquoise stone located in the middle of them. At the time of combat, Poseidon demonstrated that he had a formidable command of the weapon since he had enough coordination and strength to easily launch a barrage of thrusts in a matter of seconds.

Poseidon was someone feared and respected by the vast majority of gods who were afraid of provoking his wrath, even recognizing him with several epithets such as "The Zeus of the sea", "God of gods", "The tyrant of the ocean" and "The most terrifying god". Despite the status that Poseidon had, he did not demonstrate any divine power in his combat and only fought using his physical abilities along with his trident. It can be assumed that he was definitely powerful, since shortly before starting the third round of Ragnarök Brynhildr was indecisive when trying to choose an Einherjar who could face him. Another example of Poseidon's power is that he easily defeated his older brother Adamas who, according to Ares, was a very strong god since he even managed to tame the monster Typhon on his own.

Hydrokinesis: Being the god of the seas, Poseidon had the ability to manipulate with great ease the water that was

Poseidon using Hydrokinesis
was around him, this could be seen when he parted the waters surrounding the arena in order to climb the stairs to the fighting platform. It is unknown if Poseidon was able to use the water in his surroundings to attack or defend himself, as he never displayed any techniques based on hydrokinesis during his fight.
Divine Strength: Poseidon was able to split Adamas' body in two and throw him into a wall with great ease. During Kojiro Sasaki's mental simulations, each and every one of his attacks were strong enough to kill him in one hit, and he was able to easily destroy part of the fighting platform by unleashing a rain of stabs on Kojiro.
Divine Speed ​​and Reflexes: Poseidon's speed and reflexes are exceptional, as demonstrated by
Poseidon creating a clone by moving at high speed

impale his brother Adamas before he could react, defeating him in an instant. In his fight against Kojiro

He managed to dodge several of Kojiro's faster attacks without issue, and even after Sasaki managed to thoroughly scan his movements, it was revealed that Poseidon was still holding back. As he began to take the fight seriously, his speed increased to the point of leaving behind hundreds of afterimages of himself, rendering Kojiro unable to predict his attacks. Divine Resilience: Despite suffering multiple attacks from Kojiro all over his body, Poseidon remained composed and unfazed by his injuries and blood loss. His tolerance for pain is also seen as he continued to fight even after losing both of his arms, being knocked down only after being dismembered by Kojiro Sasaki's final attack.

Amphitrite (怒れる波濤（アムピトリテ), Amupitorite?, lit. "Raging Wave"): Poseidon uses his trident to launch a series of fast stabs in circular patterns against his enemy.
Kione Demeter Shot (荒海に降る神雷 (キオネ・テュロ・デーメテール), Kione teyuro dēmetēru?, lit. "Divine Lightning that Lashes the Seas"): Poseidon makes a long leap in the air, then using his trident begins to launch a flurry of devastating attacks on his enemy. Due to its power and speed, this technique makes the stabs given with his trident look similar to the rain and lightning present in a storm.
Medusa Alope Demeter (四十日四十夜の大洪水 (メドゥーサ・アロペ・デーメテール), Medoūsa arope dēmetēru ?, lit. "Forty Days and Forty Nights Flood"): Poseidon's strongest technique in which he begins to move at an incredible speed to the point that he is able to create a dome of "clones" formed by his rapid movements, once the dome has been created and his enemy has no escape, Poseidon proceeds to throw a torrent of attacks from all possible directions.

(To Adamas): "Gods do not unite, gods do not conspire, gods do not trust others, that is how a god should be, a perfect existence from birth, but you... you have already broken every single one of those rules."
(Same after entering the arena): "There is nothing but garbage before my eyes"
(To Kojiro after wounding him): "What's wrong? I thought you could predict all my moves... loser."
(To Kojiro before dying): "How?...you...damn loser..

In a special joke illustration made by Chika Aji, Poseidon and Zeus would exchange their outfits.

Zeus and Poseidon exchanging clothes
.
Unlike other gods, he never expressed any respect or recognition for his rival, belittling Kojiro even in his last seconds of life.
Hermes claims that if Poseidon had wanted to, he would have completely destroyed Adamas' body, so he always knew that he was still alive and in Helheim.
Although he is one of Zeus' older brothers, his physical appearance makes him look much younger than him.
The names of all of his attacks are named after Poseidon's lovers in Greek mythology, although it is unknown if the Poseidon of Shuumatsu no Valkyrie also has some kind of relationship with said lovers.
Her final attack Medusa Alope Demeter is also called "Flood of forty days and forty nights" this name being a reference to the universal flood mentioned in the Bible and in the legends of different cultures around the world.
Ironically and contrary to his ideals proclaimed in the manga, in the original Greek mythology Poseidon conspired against Zeus along with other gods.
He was the first god to be defeated by a human.
