Soru (剃, Shave): A technique in which the user moves at very high speeds in order to avoid attacks, as well as to attack at higher speeds. It was revealed that the principle of this move was to kick off the ground at least 10 times in the blink of an eye. Luffy has also learned this move and was able to use it in his fights against Blueno and Lucci though Luffy's version (via Gear Second) is more powerful. Koby was seen being able to use this move during his friendly fight with Luffy after the Enies Lobby arc.
Another thing that should be noted of this particular skill is that Kuro's "Shakushi" travels at roughly the same speed as CP9's Soru ability. The difference is that when Kuro uses that technique, he cannot see what he is attacking, or how far he is going, whereas CP9 have mastered this ability and therefore can. [2] The fact that other people, outside of CP9 membership has exhibited being able to imitate the skill (either by copying the move directly or developed their own version of it) suggests that Soru might be the most fundamental of Rokushiki.
“ With leg strength explosive enough to seemingly cause one's body to 'disappear'..."
— Blueno, CP9
Variations:
Kamisori (剃刀, Razor): Used by Lucci. A combination of Geppou and Soru, where Lucci uses Soru in a zigzag motion in midair, allowing extremely fast movement in 3 dimensons.
Soru "Tekkai Dama" (剃 "鉄塊玉", Shave: "Iron Mass Ball"): Used by Fukurou. In this attack, Fukurou spins his body at great speeds towards his opponent using Soru, then uses Tekkai to harden his spherical body.
Chou Sokutei Tekkai Dama (超紡糸 鉄塊玉, Rapid-Spinning: Iron Mass Ball): A variation on the above technique used by Fukurou wherein he combines his usual Tekkai Dama movements with Geppou to use it in midair.
