Kiai is a Ki Manipulation Technique which produces a powerful scream to strike the opponent.

Usage[]

Letting out a powerful yell, the user releases a powerful wave of ki from their entire body. It takes the form of a shockwave which attacks the opponent.[1]

Trivia[]

  • Interestingly the character for "気," is known as Qi or Ch'i that refers to the breath, air or spiritual energy of an individual's life force. The character for ai (合) is a combination of characters, the top part (亼) meaning “gather or collect,” and the bottom part (口) meaning, “mouth.”
