Body of Steel

is a defensive technique developed by Tagoma.
==Overview==
Tagoma developed this ability as a result of his time as Frieza's training partner. Being beaten within an inch of his life every day for four months solid, and the subsequent healing sessions in the Medical Machine, caused Tagoma's body to become incredibly resilient, allowing him to endure a punch to the face from Piccolo and a Ki Blast from base Gohan without even flinching. After Captain Ginyu initiated a Body Change with Tagoma, he gained this ability as well, allowing him to remain undamaged despite being knocked around by Super Saiyan Gohan.
However, this ability only defends against attacks from those with the same power level or lower; Gotenks was able to knock him to the ground and leave him writhing in pain with a powerful flying headbutt to the crotch (although Master Roshi implies that the ability also won't work with unsophisticated attacks), and Vegeta, in his Saiyan beyond God state, was able to kill Ginyu with a single Ki Blast.
