Sound Breathing

Sound Breathing (の) is a Breathing Style derived from Thunder Breathing.

Description
Sound Breathing is a Breathing Style that mimics sound, specifically its disorientating loudness, and replicates it with the user's movements, techniques and abilities. Most, if not all, known techniques and forms utilize explosives to deal massive amounts of damage while making use of extremely fast movements similar to how fast sound travels as well as the user's sense of hearing.

The only known user, Tengen Uzui uses a technique developed using his superhuman sense of hearing called Musical Score, which involves Tengen reading his opponents movements and deconstructing them into sound by analyzing the rhythm of their movements. Through this, he is able to take advantage of their openings to much greater effect by striking in a way similar to making the beat to a song. In conjunction with this, he uses small but powerful anti-demon bombs that are capable of damaging the bodies of Upper Rank demons.

Since this combat style was created by Tengen, it can only be used with a specific set of weaponry, which is two gigantic nunchucks-like Nichirin Cleavers, which each have a notch in the sharp ends of their blades and are held together at the hilt by a metal chain. His swords are said to have large amounts of explosive power, and it is stated that, until Tengen's fight with Upper Rank Six, no one had ever survived a blow from them.

Known Techniques
Sound Breathing has 5 techniques and forms at minimum, with 3 known techniques.


 * First Form: Roar (ノ) - The user lifts their twin swords above their head and slams them down with great force whilst simultaneously creating an explosion with his bombs to deal massive physical damage, causing a loud sound resembling thunder as a result


 * Fourth Form: Constant Resounding Slashes (ノ) - The user holds their swords apart and spins them rapidly in conjunction with releasing his bombs, creating massive explosions while defending themselves from attacks.


 * Fifth Form: String Performance (ノ) - The user holds one of their swords with a reverse grip and spins the other using the chain that connects them. They couple this by also releasing numerous bombs to detonate, causing great explosions that deal massive physical damage.

Trivia

 * In the Manga, whenever a Sound Breathing user performs their techniques, they visualize themselves creating whirling slashes with their bombs detonating into standard looking explosions. However in the anime adaptation, the whirling slashes are still the same, but their bombs detonate into vibrant and color fireworks such as red, orange, blue, purple, etc.
 * The Manga and the anime adaptation, First Form: Roar (ノ) is still illustrated as a standard explosion with no firework effects.
