Continuous Energy Bullets (連続気功弾, Renzoku Kikou Dan; lit. "Continuous Kikoho Bullets"), or Continuous Energy Waves (連続エネルギー波, Renzoku Enerugī-Ha), are a combination of many energy waves, much more powerful than the average ki blasts, and fired at a very rapid rate, which causes a lightning speed effect. This technique is usually used as a last resort or a desperation move, typically motivated by frustration or rage.

Overview

Doore and Neiz fire Energy Barrage Waves

The user usually brings his arms to his sides, charges up energy, and then he throws his hands forward one after another as he rapidly fires many energy blasts. It is effective for quick, widespread, and massive amounts of damage, but it is very draining on one's own ki level. However, if the user is powerful enough, he will be able to avoid the ki drainage effects of this combination technique. Like other techniques, this attack can be increased further through transformations, concentration, and training, and its power, speed, force, color, and size depends on the user.

Many fighters in Dragon Ball Z and Dragon Ball GT can perform this attack, but its most prominent user is Vegeta (in fact, during his fight with Majin Buu, Goku refers to it as Vegeta's technique). Vegeta first used it in the series in an attempt to finish off Gohan during his battle on Earth, Gohan was able to run and avoid the blasts but the explosions they caused sent him flying head first into a cliff. Vegeta later used the Continuous Energy Bullets against Zarbon in his Monster Form state. Gohan used his version of this attack, the Gekiretsu Madan, against Frieza. Vegeta re-used the Continuous Energy Bullets against Frieza to form the Big Bang Storm. Piccolo used his version of the Continuous Energy Bullet, called Scatter Shot, against Frieza. Cui used this against Vegeta as a part of his Ah! Lord Frieza! technique. Goku used it against Cell who blocked it. Vegeta also used the attack against Cell after the Maximum Flasher, enraged that Cell killed Future Trunks.

Pikkon's Continuous Energy Bullets

Cooler's Armored Squadron used this technique in an attempt to kill Goku and Gohan under Cooler's orders after the latter managed to escape, severely ravaging the landscape as well as causing Goku and Gohan's hiding place to cave in as a result, although that failed to kill them. Broly used his version of the Continuous Energy Bullet on Goku. Pikkon used it against Goku during the final of the Other World Tournament in the episode "Final Round". In Dragon Ball GT, Majuub used the Continuous Energy Bullet against Baby, as well as did Pan as part of her Reliable Friend technique. Baby Vegeta used this and formed them as Continuous Super Galick Gun. In Dragon Ball: Episode of Bardock, Chilled used this in an attempt to kill Super Saiyan Bardock. However, Bardock survived.

Trivia

• It is a running gag in the series for a victim of the Continuous Energy Bullets to reveal themselves out of the smoke left by the blasts and appear unphased, with the one who used the attack to look surprised. For example, Vegeta's enraged attack against Cell when Future Trunks was killed. However, the finishing blast of Sadistic Dance was successful in killing the victim.
