Sanji's Black Leg Style is often used to support his allies especially using his Armée De L'air techniques. The attacks listed below are techniques that combine power with Black Leg Style-related techniques.
Armée de L'Air Shot (空軍ショット,Arume do Rēru Shotto?, literally meaning "Air Force Shoot"): is a recurrent team attack where Sanji propels the combo partner with his leg to a distant target. The attack name changes according to the partner's fighting style.
Armée de L'Air Gomu Shot (空軍ゴムショット,Arume do Rēru Gomu Shotto?, literally meaning "Air Force Rubber Shoot"): A combo attack between Luffy and Sanji. Luffy stretches and grabs Sanji's leg, and as Sanji kicks forward, Luffy uses a Gomu Gomu no Rocket, propelling him forward at higher speeds than normal. This was first seen being used against Wapol.[1] This is called Armée De L'air Air Assault in the VIZ manga, Taffy Trouncer in the 4Kids dub, and Armée de L'Air Assault Gum Shoot in the Funimation adaptations. This specific move, however, is used as one of Sanji's Up Attack string finishers in the Grand Battle video games (mainly Rush and Adventure).
Armée de L'Air Power Shoot (空軍パワーシュート,Arume do Rēru Pawā Shūto?, literally meaning "Air Force Power Shoot"): A combo attack between Zoro and Sanji. In this attack, Zoro balances on Sanji's leg, and then Sanji kicks hard, sending Zoro flying at high speeds towards the opponent. This was first seen being used against Big Pan in the Groggy Ring game to get him into the "goal".[2] In the VIZ manga, this is called Armée de L'Air Assault.
Armée de L'Air Kokutei Roseo Shoot (空軍刻蹄桜シュート,Arume do Rēru Kokutei Rozeo Shūto?, literally meaning "Air Force Carving Hoof Cherry Blossom Shoot"): While in Arm Point, Chopper jumps onto Sanji's legs. Chopper is then propelled towards an opponent by Sanji's kick. With force of Sanji's kick and the force of his own arms, Chopper creates a giant-sized hoof imprint larger than he does normally with Kokutei Roseo. This was first seen being used on Oars.[3] This is called Armée de L'Air Cloven Rose Assault in the VIZ manga and Armée de L'Air Cloven Roseo Shoot in the Funimation adaptations.
Gomu Gomu no Tatsu Épaule Maki Muchi Shoot (ゴムゴムの龍 肩肉 巻き ムチ シュート,Gomu Gomu no Tatsu Epōru Maki Muchi Shūto?, literally meaning "Rubber Rubber Dragon Shoulder Twister Whip Shoot"): A combo attack of Luffy, Zoro and Sanji to kill a Sandora Lizard in the Sandora Desert. It's a combination of Luffy's Gomu Gomu no Muchi, Zoro's Tatsumaki, and Sanji's Epaule Shoot. This is called Gum-Gum Dragon Épaule Twister Whip Sprawl in the VIZ manga, and Gum-Gum Tatsu Épaule Maki Whip Shoot in the Funimation adaptations.[4]
Ifrit Jambe Épaule Gear 4 Gomu Gomu no Elephant Three Sword Style Kokujo O Tatsumaki Whip Strike (魔神風脚肩肉 ギア4 ゴムゴムの象三刀流 黒縄・大龍巻き鞭ストライク,Ifurīto Janbu Epōru Gia Fōsu Gomu Gomu no Erefanto Santōryū Kokujō Ō Tatsu Maki Wippu Sutoraiku?, literally meaning "Demon God Style Leg Shoulder Rubber Rubber Elephant Three Sword Style Whip Strike"): An improved version of Gomu Gomu no Tatsu Épaule Muchi Maki Shoot used to defeat Iscat in Bigstein Castle. It is a combination of Luffy's Gear 4: Gomu Gomu no Elephant Whip, Sanji's Ifrit Jambe: Épaule Strike, and Zoro's Three Sword Style Kokujo O Tatsumaki.[5] In the VIZ manga, this is called Ifrit Jambe Épaule Gear 4 Gum-Gum Elephant Whip Three Sword Style Black Rope Dragon Twister Whip Strike.
600,000,000 Belly Jackpot.
600,000,000 Belly Jackpot (６億Ｂ・ＪＡＣＫＰＯＴ,Roku Oku Berī Jakkupotto?): A combo technique that is done with Luffy, Zoro, Sanji, Franky, and Robin against a large group of opponents.[6] In here, Sanji is seen using one of his trademark kicks in conjunction with his crew. This was first seen being used against a group of zombies.
Diable Jambe[]
Santoryu Gomu Gomu no Diable Mouton Jet Roppyaku Pound Cannon.
Santoryu Gomu Gomu no Diable Mouton Jet Roppyaku Pound Cannon (三刀流ゴムゴムの悪魔風羊肉JET六百煩悩攻城砲,Santōryū Gomu Gomu no Deiaburu Mūton Jetto Roppyaku Pondo Kyanon?, literally meaning "Three-Sword Style Rubber Devil's Mutton Jet 600 Pound Cannon"): A combo attack performed by all three top fighting members of the Straw Hat Crew: Sanji, Zoro, and Luffy. Sanji activates his Diable Jambe technique and delivers a Diable Mouton Shot, while Zoro performs a Hyakuhachi Pound Ho and Luffy uses Gear 2 and fires a Gomu Gomu no Jet Cannon. The impact of the three techniques hits a single target simultaneously. This was first seen being used against PX-4.[7] This attack is incorrectly adapted in the anime as Luffy was shown using a continuous barrage of strikes, as if he were using Gomu Gomu no Gatling, while in the manga Gomu Gomu no Jet Cannon is a single-hit move. This is called Three Sword Style Gum-Gum Diable Mouton Jet 600-Pound Cannon in the VIZ manga, Santoryu Gum-Gum Diable Mouton Jet 600-Pound Cannon in the Funimation subs, and Three Sword Style Gum-Gum Diable Mouton Jet 600-Caliber Phoenix Cannon in the Funimation dub.
The following events are Non-Canon and therefore not considered part of the Canon story.
Rengoku Bien Cuit Yaki Oni Giri: Grill Shot (煉獄熟燒焼き鬼斬りグリルショットオツ,Rengoku Bian Kyui Yaki Oni Giri: Guriru Shotto Otsu?, literally meaning "Purgatory Well Cooked Burning Ogre Cutter: Grill Shot"): A combo attack by Zoro and Sanji in the Zorosanji (サンジゾロ?) fusion, used in One Piece Party. Zoro uses Yaki Oni Giri while Sanji uses Bien Cuit: Grill Shot, using his fire to ignite Zoro's swords in the process. The attack was capable of launching Bakudan Wapol high enough into the air that his explosion had no effect on the ground.[8]
Concludes non-canon section.
