Fishman Karate
From One Piece Encyclopedia
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.[1]
First Appearance: Chapter 84; Episode 39

[edit] 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.[2]
- 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 Cutie Wagon[3]
[edit] Trivia
- Tansui's level of Fishman karate is never seen because he was taken out before he could do anything.
