El Uno Picotear
CharacterEl Uno Picotear, glossed as 'The One Pecking' or 'Single Bird Beak Skid,' is a Resurrección technique belonging to the Arrancar Dordoni Alessandro Del Socaccio once he enters his released form, Giralda. His kicks steer bird-like beaks from the cyclones beside him into long-range strikes.
Appearance
In his released state a pair of cyclones flank Dordoni, and from them juts a bird-shaped beak that mirrors whatever kick he throws.
Abilities
Any kick can send the matching beak lancing outward for a long-range hit, launched with tremendous force and trailing wind pulled from the cyclone. A single peck can crack the floor of Tres Cifras, and an opponent can be pinned inside the beak and held open to further attacks. The extensions are not durable, yet Dordoni can regrow them no matter how thoroughly they are torn apart.
