"Fires a Ki Wave directly below you as you move upwards. Generates a shockwave when it hits the ground." |
Jumping Energy Wave (跳躍波 Chōyaku-Ha, lit. "Bounding Wave") is an Energy Wave-based jumping technique used by Krillin.
Overview
The user fires an Energy Wave downwards using the force to propel them upwards. The technique also produces a shockwave if they energy wave hits the ground. If an opponent is nearby they will be damaged. Due to the way in which it is performed it can be used to evade attacks by moving upwards.
This technique was originally used by Krillin during the fight with Nappa during Saiyan conflict. Krillin uses the technique while distracting Nappa to allow Piccolo to grab Nappa's tail. Though it was successful in distracting Nappa, Piccolo's plan ultimately failed due to Nappa having trained his tail to remove his main weakness.
