Problem description:

You need to delete the /obj/Gyuu1 at some point, either in the KatonGoukakyuu() verb after creating it or make every /obj/Gyuu1 automatically delete itself by overriding its New() proc. Make sure to spawn() the deletion for a few ticks so players have time to see the effect.

Well then delete it when you turn it off. You'll likely want to store it in a mob variable instead of a local variable.
