Fish-Man Karate

Fishman Karate is a martial art that is practiced by certain skilled members of the Fishman race. So far, Kuroobi, Kapoty, and Tansui are the only known practitioners revealed who practice this art. While deadly on land, Fishman Karate has a number of devastating underwater moves designed to be suitable with the Fishmen strength and speed while under water. This martial art can learned at Fishman Island.

First Appearance: Chapter 84; Episode 39

Kuroobi's moves

 * Hyakumaigawara Seiken (Hundred Tile True Punch)/Hundred Brick Fist: A hard punch that can send an opponent flying. Kuroobi claims that this attack is so strong that it can break through 100 tiles.


 * Wantou Giri (Arm Blade Slash)/Fish-Man Forearm Sledge: Kuroobi slams his arm-fin into the back of his opponent's neck.


 * Itomaki Kumite (Devilfish Sparring)/The Dueling Hair Tether: Done underwater, Kuroobi wraps his pony-tail around the opponent's waist to prevent them for escaping. The word "Itomaki" means "Manta Ray" but it can also mean "spool of thread" which is what his opponent looks like when they’re caught by this attack.


 * Kaisoku Harakudashigeri (Sea-Speed Stomach 'Drop' Kick)/Instant Undersea Bowel Buster (Instant Undersea Bladder Buster): An underwater attack, Kuroobi darts forward and uses that momentum to deliver a savage side kick to the opponent's stomach. This attack's name is a major pun, the word "Kaisoku" with different Kanji can mean "high speed", the term "Harakudashi" meaning "drop of the stomach" is also the word for "laxative", and finally the word "Geri" is one of many ways of writing "kick", however this version cam also mean "diarrhea". Put them all together and you get "High speed, laxative induced diarrhea".


 * Kaka Kakato Otoshi (Fire Flower Heel Drop)/Flaming Ax Kick: Done underwater, Kuroobi spins then hits his opponent with the heel of his foot.


 * Kachiage Haisoku (Rising Thrust-Kick)/Back-Foot Jawbreaker: Done underwater, An inner-sole kick to the chin of Kuroobi's opponent.


 * Joudan Bakushou (High-Rank Exploding Palm)/Guffaw Palm Bomb (Exploding Palm Bomb): Done underwater, An open plam attack to the chin of Kuroobi's opponent.


 * Appakushi Chokka Kouro (Death by Pressure Plunge)/Pulverizing Pressure Plunge: Done underwater, Kuroobi grabs his opponent then swims extremely fast to the ocean floor where the pressure of the ocean wreaks havoc on the opponent's body.


 * Kyuuoku Sei Ken: Senmaigawara Seiken (Ultimate Punch: Thousand Tile True Punch)/Thousand Brick Fist: A much stronger version of the Hyaku Mai Gawara Sei Ken, Kuroobi claims that this move is the "true essence of Fishman Karate", can break through 1000 tiles, and kill a human with one shot. Sadly we never get to see if he’s telling the truth.

Kapoty's moves
During the Donut Race portion of the Davy Back Fight, Kapoty showed some of his skills in Fishman Karate in order to aid the Cutie Wagon in racing. The techniques he used are as follows:


 * Kaimen Wari: Using a karate chop, Kapoty can split the very ocean itself in order to send a shockwave to attack an enemy. This was first seen being used to attack the Barrel Tiger in the Donut Race of the Davy Back Fight.


 * Two Fish Engine: Combining himself with Monda by placing himself in the star shark's mouth, Kapoty can create a faster "engine" for the Cutie Wagon. With this, Kapoty and Monda can pull the Cutie Wagon more easily through raging currents. Apparently Monda's sharp teeth don't hurt Kapoty. This was first seen being used after they and Porche realized that they couldn't move through the corral reef easily and were losing to the Barrel Tiger

Trivia

 * Tansui's level of Fishman karate is never seen because he was taken out before he could do anything.
