D fights a woman
”
The youth remained motionless atop his mount. He didn’t reach for his sword or for his combat belt. What’s more, when the girl saw how nonchalant he remained when challenged to battle by a good-looking young lady who gave no reasons but showered him with a murderous gaze, a tinge of consternation rushed into her expression. Letting out a rasp of breath, the girl struck with her whip. The weapon was made from intertwined werewolf bristles painstakingly tanned over three long months with applications of animal fat. A direct hit from it would sunder flesh.
“What the?…”
The girl leapt back, her expression changed. Her whip was supposed to strike the youth’s left shoulder but for some reason, just at the instant she saw hit him, the whip changed direction and shot instead for her own left shoulder. The youth had reversed the vectors without the slightest injury to himself and turned it back upon its source. To grasp the speed and angle of that black snake striking so fast it escaped the naked eye and have the reflexes to do something about it, was something that defied description.

“Clad in not a single stitch, a naked form so celestial none save the goddess Venus herself could have fashioned it glittered in the breeze. At the same time, the girl extended her other hand and undid her ponytail. Her luxurious raven mane splayed in the wind. Her nakedness alone had been beautiful, but this was truly enchanting. The wind twisted around, bearing nothing but the scent of a women in the full of her bloom.
“Let’s try that again!”
Once more her whip cracked. Through some masterful handling, the single tip whistling toward the youth split into eight parts just as it was about to strike. Each tip had a separate target, coiling around his neck, shoulders, arms, and chest with slightly different timing, making a hit much more difficult to avoid than if all struck simultaneously.
“You sure fell for that one,” the girl laughed. “That’s what you get for letting a little nudity distract you.” She hollered the words, conceding nothing to the snarling wind. And then, almost disappointed, she suddenly added, “You’re the ninth. Looks like I;m out of luck after all. How do you wanna play this? You drop the weapon you’ve got on your back and the ones around your waist and I’ll have you undone in no time.”
The reply she received was totally unexpected. “And if I wouldn’t?”
The girl bacame indignant. “Ten you get your choice of how I knock you out. Either I strangle you or I drag you to the ground. So, which of those suits your fancy?”
“Neither appeals to me.”
With his words as her signal to start, the girl concentrated all her might into her right hand. Her power coursed down the whip to the tips, trying to send the youth sailing through the air. But it didn’t! In fact, all eight loops passed right through the youth’s body without losing their circular form!
-
“What the–?”
-
Not merely surprised but dumbfounded, the girl stood rooted and dazed. After all, here was an opponent who had beaten an attack that incorporated every bit of skill she possessed without so much as lifting a hand…The youth’s mount started to walk away calmly.”

D stops healing
“Worse yet, the werewolf’s wound wouldn’t close! That wouldn’t be so unusual when it was human, but once it assumed the beastly form, the cells of a werewolf’s flesh were like single-cell organisms, giving it the regenerative power of a hydra. Cells created more cells, closing wounds instantly. But the blade the werewolf had just tasted made regeneration impossible, though it was probably not due to the blade but rather the skill of the youth who wielded it.
Skin and muscle tissue that could reject bullets weren’t showing any signs of regenerating!”

D Slices cloud to ground lightning
Vampire Hunter D Vol.4 “Tale of the Dead Town”
“Bowing and excusing himself, the physician did an about face. Just above him, there was a flash of silvery light. A bolt of lightning that was about to strike his head was split in half, and the fragments twitched on the ground. Completely oblivious to what had happened, Dr. Tsurugi raced off.”

D gets slammed into the ground at FTL speed
“““We’re passing the speed of light!” A hoarse voice called from the left hand D extended. “And we’ve got no wind. Brace for impact!” A tiny mouth formed on the palm of his hand. In it appeared a howling blue flame. Space twisted as the tiny mouth inhaled. The left hand vanished. At the same time, D felt a violent impact.” Pg 182 Vampire Hunter D: Volume 16 Tyrant’s Star part 3″

D cuts a spear which with stood the pressure of a black hole
““The swipe D made with his blade in midair was fearsome; a heartbeat later, the spears apparently metal shaft had been severed a foot and a half from the end and was sailing through the air. D’s left hand rose, and a black glint screamed through the air to pierce the base of the giant’s throat with unerring accuracy.”-Vampire Hunter D Volume 16 part 1 pg 14.”

D takes
EXTREME heat
“The Hunter reached into the hole in the wall, and, grabbing a fistful of cables, he pulled down. From his shoulder to his wrist, pale blue electromagnetic waves clung to him like a spider’s web, and white smoke rose from his body. His face didn’t show the slightest hint of pain. His right hand went into action, pulling out the ends of the severed cords. Electromagnetic waves covered D entirely…Perhaps it was the first time this young man had worn a color other than black. Using his body as a conductor, energy suddenly shot from the reactor to the barrier projector. Richly colored blossoms opened. Flames that cold get as hot as fifty million degrees and a lethal dose of electromagnetic waves and radiation churned.” Vampire Hunter D: Tale Of The Dead Town pg 127″

D's aura/beauty in action
“The arm that was about to spray them with white hot death, however turned in the opposite direction along with the rest of its body. In the shadow of a building some fifty feet away there suddenly stood a figure in black so beautiful and tragic it numbed even the electronic brain of this machine. That was the reason why it delayed a tenth of a second aligning the sights of the thermal-ray cannon.” Vampire Hunter D Volume 4 pg 136

D vs Light pulled directly from the sun
“D became a black shooting star flying through the air. The sun ray beam that shot through the space he just occupied an instant earlier continued past him. With nothing to strike, it scored direct hit to the carriage parked to one side of the square. “That’s not good!” someone cried out. Startled by the flying sparks and energy discharge the team of horses whinnied especially loudly and bolted for the exit on the far side of the square. “Close the back gate!” A few villagers ran off in response to the old man’s shouts but an instant later a beam intercepted them, and they fell forward with their heads blown off. Nobody could tell where the beams were coming from. The square had become a place where bolts and light flitted madly, and, as fleeing villagers vanished in the flashes, the origin of the murderous beams still seemed impossible to determine. However, the one clear image that greeted anyone who looked back was the enraptured expression of the angelic young man as he stood by the entrance of the square watching the mad dance of the lights. It was inspiring how his face brimmed with joie de vivre as he gleefully toyed with the deadly rays. All at once, the square reclaimed its original hue. Perhaps it was an aftereffect of the powerful white flashes, but the green trees and brown houses burned themselves into the scene in almost painfully deep tones before gradually returning to their natural color. Villagers creeping to the edge of the square-or some cases crouched on the ground watching where this supernatural phenomena was headed-saw a pair of figures square off with some thirty feet between them. One was a young man wearing an angelic smile, the other was a hunter as beautiful as the moon’s corona. Which would prove the faster, the racing figure in black or the coursing stream of white light? Everyone gasped as D fended off one white-hot attack but two more streaks pierce his body as he dashed forward. But what did the villagers really see and gasp about? D held his left hand out in front of his chest. The two bolts of light changed directions right before him, and became a single flash,, and were sucked into the palm of the hand. The young man didn’t move. His smile still brimmed with pleasure. D’s flashing blade flowed from the tip of his foes head down to his lower jaw.”-pg 93-94 Vampire Hunter D Demon Deathchase

D's Left Hand in action
“”Suddenly there was a powerful gust of wind. Waves began to build and break on the sea that lay in defense of Egbert, and in the blink of an eye, the vast body of water became a thin layer of liquid suspended in the air. All the wind was blowing towards a single point. Towards D–and his left hand. And what a powerful gale it was. But it didn’t blow the soldiers through the air. Before it could, the tendrils of wind and already ripped away the flesh and blood that formed their bodies. Necks twisted, arms snapped, and the torsos they’d been joined to broke apart in midair, before they were sucked into D’s right hand.”-Vampire Hunter D Volume 7 pg129
-
So we see here that D’s Left Hand sucked with enough force to lift a portion of an ocean out off the ground and ripped the flesh and blood from the bones of mutant soldiers and tore them apart before sucking them into his Left Hand. Also note that his opponent in this case is a character named King Egbert who had the power to divine an area and make himself completely king in that specific space. Everything that area is under his control including gravity. Didn’t help him much obviously.It didn’t just skin them it tore them apart and shattered their bones. Mind you these were dolls made into flesh and blood by a magician in full body armor. And D’s arm was broken at the time due to Egbert increasing his strength via manipulating gravity and decreasing D’s speed using the same method.

D slicing ability
“Though built from a steel-like plating only a fraction of an inch thick, the Shelters could withstand a direct hit from a small nuclear device, and there were a vast array of defensive mechanisms armed and ready to dispose of any insects who might be buzzing around with stakes and hammers in hand.
But what made these Shelters perfect, more than anything else, was one simple fact—
“There’s no entrance?” D muttered from atop his horse.
Exactly. The jet-black walls that reflected the white radiance of the sun didn’t have so much as a hair-sized crack.
Looking up at the heavens, D started silently down the hill. “The pleasant vernal temperature aside, the sunlight that ruthlessly scorched him was unparalleled agony for a dhampir like D. Dhampirs alone could battle with the Nobility on equal terms by night, but to earn the title of Vampire Hunter, they needed the strength to remain impassive in the blistering hell of the day.
As D drew closer, it seemed the surrounding air bore an almost imperceptible groaning, but that soon scattered in the sunlight.
At D’s breast, his pendant glowed ever bluer. It was a mysterious hue that rendered all of the Nobility’s electronic armaments inoperable.”
-
“Dismounting in front of the sheer, black wall, D put his left hand to the steel. A chilling sensation spread through him. The temperature was probably unique to this special steel. Perhaps it was because, to render the exterior of this structure impervious to all forms of heat or electronic waves, molecules served as atoms in it.
D’s hand glided slowly across the smooth surface.
Finishing the front wall, he moved to the right side. It took thirty minutes to run his hand over that side. “Sheesh,” said a bored voice coming from the space between the steel and the palm of his hand. The voice let a sigh escape as D moved to the back wall. If there’d been anyone there to hear it, this bizarre little scene would’ve undoubtedly made the eyes bug out of their head, but D continued his work in silence.
“Yep, this metal sure is tough stuff. The situation inside is kind of hazy. Still, I’m getting a picture of the general setup. The superatomic furnace inside is sending energy into the metal itself. You can’t break through the walls without destroying the atomic furnace, but in order to do that you’d have to bust through the walls first. So, which came first, the chicken or the egg?”
-
“How many are inside?” D asked, still brushing his hand along the wall.
“Two,” came the quick reply. “A man and a woman. But even I can’t tell whether they’re Nobility or human.”
Without so much as a nod, D finished scanning the third wall.
Only the left side remained.
But what in the world was he doing? Judging from what the voice said, he seemed to be searching the interior of the Shelter, but, if the outer walls couldn’t be breached, that was pointless. On the other hand, the voice explained that destroying the outer walls would be impossible.
About halfway down the steel wall, the left hand halted.
“Got it,” the voice said disinterestedly. “D wasted no time going into action. Without taking his left hand away, he stepped back, reaching with his right for his sword. The blade seemed to drink up the sunlight.
Drawing his sword-wielding right arm far back, D focused his eyes on a single point on the wall. A spot right between the thumb and forefinger of his left hand.
But what had they got there? The instant an awesome white bloodlust coalesced between the naked sword tip and the steel—
A pale light pierced the black wall.
It was D’s sword that streamed forth. Regardless of how trenchant that thrust might be, there was no way it could penetrate the special steel of the outer walls. Be that as it may, the graceful arc sank halfway into the unyielding metal wall. “That’s where the entrance was. D’s blade was wedged in the boundary between door and wall, though that line was imperceptible to the naked eye. With the mysterious power of his left hand D had located it, then thrust into it. Granted that there was a space there, how could the tip of his sword slip into an infinitesimal gap?
[skipping some stuff]
-
“The muscles of the hand he wrapped around the hilt bulged slowly. It’s unclear what kind of exquisite skill was at work, but the slightest twist of the horizontal blade sent a sharp, thin line racing across the steel surface. “Blue light oozed out”
