Penetrate!

Dragon Ball Z: Budokai Tenkaichi 3, 2007 is a Rush Attack used by Goku.
==Overview==
While the opponent is in the air, Goku charges and fires a one-handed Reverse Kamehameha at the ground to launch himself up into the air. Then, he clenches his hand into an energy-powered fist. A silhouette of a Great Ape (which is said to represent Goku's hidden powers) appears as Goku puts his fist forward and punches through the opponent, inflicting a huge amount of damage.
==Usage==
Goku used this attack to defeat King Piccolo. After breaking Goku's legs and left arm, King Piccolo flew high up into the air and charged back down to kill the crippled Goku. However, with his right arm still intact, Goku launched himself up at King Piccolo with a Kamehameha and attacked him with the "Penetrate!" punch. Although King Piccolo braced for impact, the force of Goku's attack was too powerful and the evil Namekian was left with a large, gaping hole in his chest.Dragon Ball episode 122, "Final Showdown" However, King Piccolo spat out the egg of his final offspring and reincarnation and encouraged his son to avenge his death by killing Goku before succumbing to his injuries and blowing up.Dragon Ball episode 123, "Lost and Found"
Goku later used the "Penetrate!" punch when fighting Mr. Popo, but Mr. Popo effortlessly dodged it, much to Goku's surprise.Dragon Ball episode 124, "Temple Above the Clouds"
==Variation==
*Beast Roar - A variation used by Natz and several minor Saiyan characters in Dragon Ball Fusions.

Prior to his battle with King Piccolo, Goku uses a similar technique to destroy the Pirate Robot.Dragon Ball episode 51, "Beware of Robot" He uses it again to destroy the Red Ribbon Army Battle Jacket which the recently self-promoted Commander Black pilots, resulting in Black's death. This attack is the same as Penetrate! but with two hands extended forward rather than one (probably since Goku had no usage of his other limbs at this point when fighting King Piccolo).Dragon Ball episode 68, "The Last Dragon Ball" When reflecting on the events of the Red Ribbon Army war, Master Roshi refers to it as Goku "using his head". Goku also uses a similar technique to defeat Major Metallitron in Dragon Ball: Mystical Adventure.
Goku performs a similar attack using Kaio-ken as an impulse both to kill Misokatsun in Dragon Ball Z: The World's Strongest and to wound Great Namekian Lord Slug in Dragon Ball Z: Lord Slug.
Gohan also uses a technique nearly identical to Goku's Penetrate! to rip a hole in Garlic Jr.'s body followed by blasting him with a Masenko. However, since Garlic Jr. is immortal, the attack barely fazed the Serpent, as he was able to regenerate all types of wounds.
In Dragon Ball Z: The Return of Cooler, Gohan and Krillin use a similar attack to destroy some of the Cyclopian Guards. Gohan's attack is called Body Destruction in the Dragon Ball Z Collectible Card Game.
