Sound 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 (
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.
