I dont found videos of the attack mentioned. But, if I understand your question you can do this:
Create a Position2D as a child of the player node and put in the center of the player.
Create a Sprite, for example, with the sword texture as a child of the Position2D created previously.
Put the Sprite in the initial position.
Create a AnimationPlayer and chage the rotation of the Position2D.

I was struggling to find an answer myself, so I might as well help any other stragglers out there, even if I am rather late to the question : )
