Notable Attacks/Techniques:
*Kekkei Genkai Connecting Punches: Sakon using his kekkei genkai to enhance his physical attacks. With their kekkei genkai, Sakon and Ukon are able to merge and separate with each other at will. Ukon generally used this ability to remain within Sakon's body where he could bring out some of his body parts to aid Sakon in battle. This made him a highly dangerous opponent in hand-to-hand combat, as in addition to defending Sakon's blind-spots, he allowed Sakon to perform three armed punches and three legged kicks. Even if the enemy could block the first strike, the other two would blindside him. 
*Parasite Demon Demolition Technique: Ukon can only perform this technique after activating his cursed seal's second level. Using his chakra, he disassembles his body on a cellular and proteinic level so that he can enter a target's body. He then starts reforming himself, taking over certain parts of their body and gradually corroding the parts he hasn't entered yet. Ultimately, the target dies, achieving this technique's primary purpose: assassination.
*Summoning Technique: When separated from each other, Sakon and Ukon could perform Summoning: Rashōmon by standing at a certain distance away from each other. 
*Fūinjutsu: Like the rest of Sound Four, they were also skilled in sealing techniques, as Sakon kept a giant scroll to summon out items or when he summoned a kunai he fought Genma Shiranui with a slight movement of his hand, hinting that he might have seals under his clothes. He also used the Dark Sealing Method as an additional seal to keep Sasuke confined in the box while he was adapting to his Cursed Seal of Heaven.
*Cooperation Ninjutsu: Despite the volatile relationship between the members of the Sound Four, they were well-versed in a series of Cooperation Ninjutsu. They could use the Combination Transformation in order to pose as Orochimaru's bodyguards while also concealing their numbers. During the battle between the Third Hokage and Orochimaru, they could produce the Four Violet Flames Formation in order to prevent anyone from entering or leaving the confines of the barrier. When carrying Sasuke to Orochimaru, they used another technique, a barrier called the Four Black Fogs Formation which traps the target in a temporary death state in order to allow him to adapt to the cursed seal and make for easier transportation.
