Hunting MethodEdit

Zebra hunts using his ability to create and manipulate sound waves through his superhumanly powerful voice, resulting in very powerful mid and long-range attacks and other sound-related abilities. His exceptional control over these techniques allows him to project his voice over dozens of kilometers both above and below ground, and to generate everything from massive shock waves to precise 'blades' of sound. The physical destructiveness of the sound can be augmented using tones which are inherently painful for humans or wild beasts to hear, and the fact that his abilities move at the speed of sound makes them nearly unavoidable. Zebra can strain his throat if he uses his sound abilities too much, resulting in him losing his voice for a period of time. He can still communicate with non-verbal gestures that he made up himself. Out of all the Four Heavenly Kings, Zebra's sound abilities give him the greatest destructive power. His attacks have also been seen to take up the most calories seen in the series; ranging from the hundreds of millions even up to the billions. Zebra could store about up to 4,500,000,000 calories of energy inside his body when he was first introduced in the series, but these measurements are mostly meaningless with the ability of Food Immersion. When fighting at very close range or in the absence of his voice powers, Zebra will resort to his monstrous physical strength, much like Toriko; even tearing apart opponents with his teeth if necessary.

IntimidationEdit

 
Zebra Intimidation small

Zebra's Intimidation appears as a humanoid bat-like creature with black, heavily scarred skin. It's small, domelike head sits on top a heavily muscled body, and is dominated by a wide, toothy maw.

Physical ProwessEdit

Zebra has extreme physical strength. During his time at Honey Prison, Zebra 'trained' by repeatedly surviving execution attempts made at his own request. His strength was enough to stop the four enormous, dinosaur-like execution beasts assigned to to tear him apart limb by limb. When preparing to use his sound attacks Zebra inhales and bulks up, nearly doubling his body mass while remaining at the same height. It is unclear if his physical strength increase along with his size, however.

Superhuman HearingEdit

Zebra's enhanced sense as on the Four Heavenly Kings is hearing, dubbed his Hell Ears by Toriko. Toriko claims that Zebra could hear a coin fall from "tens of kilometers away". Due to having gained considerable experience from killing countless beasts, Zebra can actually hear when an enemy is going to die, or as Zebra puts it, he can hear the steps of the Grim Reaper.

AngerEdit

Zebra, possibly through his body producing massive amounts of adrenaline, is able temporarily regain his stamina by turning his raw anger into bodily energy. This can only be done if Zebra is incredibly enraged; he will sometimes even allow opponents to strike him in order to force himself to become angry. Although the process behind it is unknown, the effect is similar to Toriko's use of Autophagy to regain energy, and has a similarly limited duration.

Sound TechniquesEdit

Offensive TechniquesEdit

  • Sound Bazooka (サウンドバズーカ): Zebra lets out an unbelievably loud scream with enough force to destroy his cell in Honey Prison and his enormous chains, and make the giant beasts around him pass out. He has to charge this technique for a while beforehand. It originally took Zebra 400,000,000 calories to use this attack.
 
Thunder Noise on Salamander Sphinx small
  • Thunder Noise (サンダーノイズ): Zebra shouts upward into the air, where a "cloud" of sound forms. The sound echoes within the cloud, becoming louder and more intense, before falling from the sky as thunderbolt like blasts of sound. It originally took Zebra 200,000,000 calories to use this attack.
  • Voice Missile (ボイスミサイル): Zebra screams out a large burst of sound as strong as a missile. It originally took Zebra 350,000,000 calories to use this attack. Zebra can fire several of these attacks in quick succession.
    • Voice Burst (ボイスバースト): A powerful technique similar to Voice Missile, but with a much wider range.
    • Voice Breath (ボイスブレス): Zebra uses his breath in a similar fashion as his Voice Missile, but it creates a small crater in the opponent. Zebra first used this technique on Zaragira, killing him by causing his skull to cave into his chest.
 
Single Slash Voice Cutter on Salamander Sphinx small
  • Voice Cutter (ボイスカッター): Zebra uses his voice to cut his enemy (possibly through high-frequency vibrations). He is able to do this with his back turned to the enemy. Rather than a shockwave, the vibrations produce thin 'blades' of sound. This is most likely the attack he used to cause all the scars on Match's body. It originally took Zebra 250,000,000 calories to use this attack.
    • Single Slash Voice Cutter (一刀ボイスカッター Ittou Voice Cutter): Zebra uses a stronger, more focused version of Voice Cutter which can move as fast as the speed of sound, fast enough to land a hit on the highly agile Salamander Sphinx. It forms a single, powerful sound blade.
 
Machine Gun Voice on Salamander Sphinx small
  • Machine Gun Voice (マシンガンボイス): Zebra shoots a lot of small voice "bullets" using a staccato shout. It originally took Zebra 100,000,000 calories to use this attack.
 
Zebra Meteor Noise small
  • Meteor Noise (メテオノイズ): A more powerful version of Thunder Noise in which the intensity and area of effect are amplified several times, but also requires a longer charge time.
    • Voice Meteor Shower: Derived from Meteor Noise, Zebra creates a multitude of meteors made of sound to rain down on an opponent. This was first use on Mounturtle.
 
Zebra Death Sound small
  • Death Sound (死音 Shi Oto): Before, by expending 2,000,000,000 calories, Zebra can use his voice to emulate the footsteps of the Grim Reaper. The resulting sound is undoubtedly fatal to any who hear it. As of the Cooking Festival Arc, his Death Sound can affect a large radius, as he use it to eliminate all of the flying Scum Beast single handily.
  • Beat Punch (ビートパンチ): Zebra, in order to increase the destructive power of his punch, channels sound vibrations through his fist. This increases the destructive power of the punch many fold, and allow Zebra to directly damage the organs within a beast.
    • Sound Knuckle (サウンドナックル): Derived from Beat Punch, Zebra creates a bubble of sound vibrations around his fist to increase the power of his punch. This act similar to someone wearing brass knuckles.

Defensive TechniquesEdit

 
Roar Bullet small
  • Roar Bullet (吠え玉 Hoe Dama): Zebra sends out an "intimidation" sound that scare off wild animals. He first uses this to protect Komatsu from afar.
    • Sound Armor (音鎧 Oto Yoroi): Derived from the Roar Bullet, Zebra can create a armor of sound to encase a individual from attack. He used this on Komatsu to deflect an attack from a wild animal. If the armor is struck with a signifigant amount of force, it will dissipate. It originally took Zebra 10,000,000 calories to use this attack. After drinking the Mellow Cola Zebra can create a Sound Armor with the carbonation of the cola that can protect the person it is directed at from heat and dehydration.
  • Strange Voice (トリコ ストレンジボイスKisei): Zebra makes a strange sound that drives away creatures. It works by continually changing the sound until he finds a frequency that the animal is agitated by.
 
Sound Wall small
  • Sound Wall (音壁 Oto Kabe): Zebra makes a wall of sound to block incoming attacks. It originally took Zebra 50,000,000 calories to use this technique.
 
Weak Point Voice small
  • Weak Point Voice (ウィークポイントボイス): Zebra uses this to identify an enemy's weak point.

Supplementary TechniquesEdit

  • Sound Bullet (音玉 Oto Dama) Zebra is able to concentrate and direct his voice over a long distance, roughly 10 km, with great accuracy. He used this skill to insult Toriko from afar, which Komatsu standing beside him could not hear because of the Sound Bullet's precision.
  • Jet Voice (ジェットボイス): Zebra uses his voice to propel himself forward at neck breaking speeds. It is shown that he can also use other sound techniques while using this in mid-air and can move others as well when they dodge the Four Beast’s attack.
  • Voice Life Jacket (ボイスライフジャケット): A technique that act as a life jacket to those in the water. It was first seen in Gourmet 214 on Komatsu because he couldn’t swim.
  • Speed of Sound Movement (音速移動 Onsoku Idou): A technique that gives Zebra the ability to move at the speed of sound. He use this technique to overpower the Nitro in the Cooking Stadium.
  • Sound Bubbles (Unnamed): Zebra seals several people at the Cooking Stadium in bubbles of sound that transports them to a far off location.

EcholocationEdit

 
Echo Map small
  • Echo Map (反響マップ Hankyou Map): Zebra sends out continuous sound waves that let him map out the surrounding area. This is also known as echolocation. He cannot attack while doing this because it requires great concentation. The range of the map is about 70 km around Zebra who can hold this for up to 5 hours without any rest. To maintain this technique it originally took up about 200,000 calories per second, 60,000,000 calories per every 10 minute and 3,600,000,000 calories for five hours. He uses this to locate Komatsu and "see" through the mirages of the labyrinth.
  • Voice Sonar (ボイスソーナー): A technique use in conjunction to Echo Map that can detect underwater objects. It was first use to find the Madam Fish in the Pot Pond when it froze over. It's shown to be affected by ultra sonic waves, which make it hard for Zebra to find animals or objects in the water.

Joint AttacksEdit

 
Speed of Sound Kugi Punch small
  • Speed of Sound Nail Punch (音速釘パンチ Onsoku Kugi Punchi): This attack was used against the Nitro in the Gourmet Pyramid. This is a joint forced attack of Zebra working together with Toriko. Toriko prepares for a concentrated Nail Punch and Zebra launches a sound attack which can launch Toriko forward at the speed of sound, making an incredible impact when the attack connects. So far, the highest number of hits shown of this attack is 17-Hits.
  • Dinner of Kings (王食晩餐 Ou Shoku Bansan): A joint attack using the effort and Appetite Energy of all Four Heavenly Kings. The Kings concentrate their all their energy into a ball of pure appetite, which, when launched, turns into a giant all-consuming maw. The attack will then proceed to consume the prey, regardless of the opponents actions, until it is completely eaten, and form into a ball, which harmlessly bursts after some time. One of the greatest advantages of this technique is that it will only aim for the intended prey, and nothing else, leaving anything unnecessary in a separate sphere. The greatest disadvantage of this technique is that the process of making this move requires a great deal of concentration and energy, leaving the users vulnerable to attack. Furthermore, for this technique to work, the users "appetite" and "spirits" need to sync.
  • Poison Sound Armor: A combo attack done with Coco. Coco infects enemies that touch the target with poison while Zebra protects the target with Sound Armor. This was used to protect Komatsu from Starjun during the Cooking Festival Arc.
