Food-Leg Style

The Food-Leg Style is a Boxing and Martial-Arts style used by the Shefu Family and created by them. It was later inherited by Charlotte "Shefu" Hestuser after he ran from the Charlotte Family.

## Description

As the Shefu Family is a family of chefs, it was the basis for the Spice-Leg Style, with a complete emphasis on kicks. The hands were repurposed into acrobatic usages such as handstands to augment the force and range of kicks, and to prevent the hands from being damaged during a battle, something that is disastrous to a chef. Thus, it boasts a wide and impressive array of kicking techniques coupled with superior acrobatic skills. Interestingly, the technique names are all based on French names for different foods and body parts. Like the Spice-Leg Style, this fighting style is extremely versatile and able to overpower enemies at once with incredible efficiency.

## Hestuser's Techniques

As the kid adopted into the Shefu Family who adopted the **Food-Leg Style**, Hestuser is extremely skilled and a powerful master in this martial art. However, Hestuser dislikes using this martial arts style. Hestuser has rigorously trained in this martial art before inventing his Spice-Leg Style, becoming one of the few masters of the **Food-Leg Style**. After joining the Olympian Dreamer Pirates as their chef and gaining greater fighting experience from constantly battling powerful enemies such as infamous Pirates and Marines, Hestuser has surpassed his mentors, developing more powerful variations of their techniques through his Spice-Leg Style techniques. Most of the attack names are in French for cuts of meat or various dishes. Whenever Hestuser uses a technique, he typically puts "**Food-Leg Style**" before the technique name to emphasize it isn't his inventeded style of fighting. So far, Hestuser has only revealed a select few techniques, detailed below:

### Revealed Techniques

* **Party Table Kick Course** (パーティーテーブルキックコース, *Pātī Tēburu Kikku Kōsu*, literally meaning "Party Table Kick Course"): An attack for fighting against large groups or just to deliver a rapid barrage without putting a lot of strength into the blow. There are two ways to deliver this attack. First, Hestuser can jump in the air and land on the head of his opponent in a handstand position. Then he'll spin around rapidly to deliver the kick to the face of anyone within range while spinning. The other way is for Hestuser to get on the ground between the opponents in a handstand position. Then Hestuser spins around rapidly to deliver a kick to the face of the opponents within range while spinning. After Hestuser runs out of targets, or they leave the range, he dismounts and kicks the person he was spinning on. Or just up if Hestuser was on the ground. This technique was first used against several Kurogaru Pirates and Crossbone Pirates when they had charged him to send them flying away. This technique is a **Stage 1** technique.

* **Head Chef Drop** (料理長ドロップ, *Ryōrichō Doroppu*, literally meaning "Head Chef Drop"): First, Hestuser dashes toward his opponent. Then, Hestuser leaps up in front of them while delivering a kick to send his opponent into the sky. The attack is always targeted toward the head, though it can be aimed for other limbs. This technique was first used by Hestuser to stop Jaspar from his Hard Boil Combo connecting and dealing critical damage. This was part of the origin of all the **Pepper**-based techniques, as they target the head. This technique is a **Stage 1** technique.

* **Collier** (首肉（コリエ）, *Korie*?, literally meaning "Neck"): First, Hestuser dashes toward his opponent. Then, he delivers a powerful kick to the opponent's neck. This was also part of the origin for all the Pepper-based techniques, as the neck is attached and the next closest body part to the head. This technique was first used to send Jaspar flying away after catching Jaspar off guard. **Collier** is the French term for neck meat. This technique is a **Stage 2** technique.
	+ **Collier Shoot** (首肉（コリエ）シュート, *Korie Shūto*?, literally meaning "Neck Shoot"): An enhanced version of **Collier**. First, Hestuser dashes at his opponent. However, by leaping high into the air and delivering a powerful kick at the opponent's neck, Hestuser sends a much more powerful variant of the kick. This is where he got the idea to target specific parts of the head that impair the senses. This is also where he got the idea to incorporate jumping into a lot of his Spice-Leg Style techniques. This technique was first used, albeit unsuccessfully, in an attempt to bypass Candle 1's defenses in his Dragon Form. This technique is a **Stage 1** technique.

* **Côtelette** (背肉（コートレット）, *Kōtoretto*?, literally meaning "Rib Meat"): First, Hestuser dashes toward his opponent. Then, Hestuser drops to a single, one-handed handstand position. Now in that position, Hestuser kicks his opponent hard right in the ribs. This has the power to propel them backward, which is typically what he does, though can also just keep them in place. This attack is usually followed by **Selle**, or something similar, though isn't always. This attack is the origin of his attacks that use acrobatic positions like handstands. This technique was first used against Bendis to enable him for his finishing combination on the Marine Captain. **Côtelette** is the French term for rib meat. This technique is a **Stage 1** technique.

* **Selle** (鞍下肉（セル）, *Seru*?, literally meaning "Lower Back Meat"): Commonly used as a combo attack with **Côtelette**. If Hestuser is using it to combo off **Côtelette**, Hestuser first uses **Côtelette**. Then, with the momentum from the Hestuser attack, Hestuser remains in the handstand position he's in for that attack. Then, he spins around in the opposite direction of his opponent while delivering a fast kick toward their lower back. If this isn't used as a combo attack with **Côtelette**, Hestuser gets into the single, one-handed handstand position., Then he spins around to deliver a fast kick at his opponent's lower back. This attack is the origin of his combination attacks or attacks that use other attacks to form combinations, such as **Pepper Dash**. This technique was first used to knock Jaspar away after using **Côtelette** on Bendis, freeing him up for a finishing combination of moves on the Marine Captain. **Selle** is the French term for lower back meat. This technique is a **Stage 1** technique.

* **Mouton Shot** (羊肉（ムートン）ショット, *Mūton Shotto*?, literally meaning "Sheep Meat Shot"): One of the strongest attacks in the **Food-Leg Style**. Hestuser first starts by dashing at his opponent. Then, he jumps or flips into the air and channels every bit of strength he can into one leg. Then Hestuser delivers a flurry of kicks so fast that they seem to hit simultaneously. This creates the illusion that Hestuser's leg is shaking, and the target is sent flying. It's typically aimed at the midsection but can be aimed at the head as well. This attack is the origin of his Spice-Leg Style using a multitude of fast kicks to make it seem like one kick in attacks. This technique was first used to defeat Jaspar by completely bypassing his defenses, defeating the Fishman and sending his body flying across the battlefield. **Mouton** is French for "mutton", meaning cooked lamb meat. This technique is a **Stage 2** technique.

* **Épaule** (肩肉（エポール）, *Epōru*?, literally meaning "Shoulder"): First, Hestuser dashes forward toward his opponent before bringing his foot down onto their shoulders. This attack has a lot of power and force behind it, allowing him to knock his opponent to the ground. This is part of the origin of his attacks that offset his opponent's balance. This technique was first used in an effort to bring Candle 1 to the ground after he entered his Hybrid Form. **Épaule** is the French word for shoulder. This technique is a **Stage 1** technique.

* **Poitrine** (胸肉ポワトリーヌ, *Powatorīnu*, literally meaning "Breast Meat"): First, Hestuser runs toward the opponent. When close enough, Hestuser delivers a stabbing kick into the opponent's chest. This attack has the power to send his opponents flying and slightly pierce through the chest. This attack is the origin of attacks based on targeting the chest area of his opponent specifically. This technique was first used to send Bendis flying off The (Sailing) Pantheon on Polarhaven Island. **Poitrine** is the French term for breast meat. This technique is a **Stage 2** technique.
	+ **Poitrine Shoot** (胸肉（ポワトリーヌ）シュート, *Powatorīnu Shūto*?, literally meaning "Breast Meat Shoot"): An enhanced version of **Poitrine**. First, Hestuser runs forward and toward his opponent. Then, Hestuser uses the **Poitrine** attack, but instead of aiming at the chest, he lifts his leg to aim his kick slightly higher and kicks up. This attack is more powerful than **Poitrine** in a way and pierces slightly more because it kicks up and is aimed higher, allowing it to bypass defenses a lot more. This technique was first used against Marine Captain Bendis as soon as Hestuser's strength began returning. This technique is a **Stage 1** technique.

* **Gigot** (もも肉（ジゴー）, *Jigō*?, literally meaning "Leg Meat"): First, Hestuser runs toward the opponent. When close enough, Hestuser delivers a sweeping kick as a result right toward the kneecaps. This attack has enough power behind it to cause his opponent's knees to buckle and send them flying, or slam them to the ground. Similarly, this attack is the basis for the Mustard attacks, as they target the legs specifically like this one does. Specifically, this attack is the basis for Brown Mustard. **Gigot** is the French term for leg meat. This technique was first used against the swordsman Miyamoto Takezō during the Asuka Martial Arts Tournament just before Hestuser finished him off with a **Mouton Shot**. This technique is a **Stage 1** technique.

* **Sky Walk** (スカイ散歩（スカイウォーク）, *Sukaiu~ōku*?, literally meaning "Sky Stroll"): Hestuser dashes forward and propels himself into the air. While in the air, Hestuser delivers a tremendous amount of force that releases pressurized shockwaves heavy enough that, when under his body, propel him into the sky. This allows Hestuser the ability to continue staying in the air, and by continuously kicking to release pressurized shockwaves he can control the direction and height he reaches. This technique was first used with Ainya on his back to kick off the sky and fly up to the base of a waterfall. There is a french alcohol named Dieu du Ciel, which when consumed enough imitates the effects you'd feel after getting drunk, as if you were strolling in the sky. The French name for this technique is **Ciel Épice**, which means "Spice of the Sky". This technique is considered **Stage 2**.

* **Lancer de Fer** (鉄投げ, *Tetsu Nage*?, literally meaning "Iron Throw"): Hestuser extends his legs out to let someone grab it before spinning around while leaping into the air. Once in the air, Hestuser brings up his legs so the person grabbing his leg is also put into the air, before throwing his leg forward and sending his target flying toward their destination. **Lancer de Fer** is the french term for throwing iron. This technique was first used for the **Gum Gum Lancer de Fer Yuki-Modoru** combination, and forms part of the **Gum Gum Lancer de Fer Yuki-Modoru** combination attack between Hestuser, Athermos, and Vhagar. This technique is considered **Stage 1**.

* **Menton** (餃子のあご肉（マントン）, *Manton*?, literally meaning "Dumpling Jaw Meat"): Hestuser lets himself get pushed and lose balance, using it as momentum to rapidly spin his body similar to breakdancing. Then, with enough momentum built up he flips off the ground and runs toward his target. When he is significantly faster, it'll typically look like he's vanishing because he pushes his body to the extreme limits with his speed. Afterward, he comes from the right, left, then behind only to get directly in front of his opponent. Now infront of them, he lifts his leg up to deliver a kick toward his opponent's chin. This technique was first used during the Asuka Martial Arts Tournament against Vhagar. This technique is considered **Stage 1**.

### Unrevealed Techniques

The following are techniques Hestuser knows, but has yet to reveal:

* **Ryoricho Gisoku Kick** (料理長義足キック, *Ryōrichō Gisoku Kikku*, literally meaning "Head Chef Peg-Leg Kick"): First, Hestuser delivers a horizontal kick. This was the origin point that Salt takes and changes up, wherein it just releases a simple pressurized wind toward his enemy. This technique is a **Stage 1** technique.

* **Tekka Shoot** (テッカシュート, *Tekka Shūto*, literally meaning "Iron-Fire Shoot"): Whenever Hestuser can see a ball-like object, he can first catch the ball on his leg. Then, Hestuser will spin upside down like in **Party Table Kick Course**, typically in a handstand position as well, sending the ball flying toward his opponent. This is the origin point for Hestuser using outside items in his combat and allowing the Spice-Leg Style to exist in the first place. This technique is a **Stage 1** technique.

### Team Combination Techniques

The following are techniques that Hestuser uses an individual known technique to use a technique involving himself and other people. Currently only one technique has been shown:

* **Gum Gum Lancer de Fer Yuki-Modoru** (ゴムゴム鉄投げ雪戻る, *Gomu Gomu Nage Tetsu Yuki Modoru*?, literally meaning "Rubber Rubber Iron Throwing Snow Back"): Hestuser extends his leg out as Athermos stretches one arm toward it to grab on. Athermos also stretches his other arm out toward Vhagar, which Vhagar grabs and concentrates. Hestuser then uses **Lancer de Fer**, spinning around while leaping into the air, throwing his foot out while pulling up Athermos and Vhagar, giving the duo momentum. As soon as that momentum is reached Athermos uses Gum Gum Throw, with his body being thrown forward as he pulls and throws Vhagar toward the target, letting go of Vhagar at the very last moment. Then, Vhagar moves in a very specific way for his Yuki-Modoru technique by twisting his sword and raising it up, letting Ace absorb any element present(if any), before then releasing the absorbed element while trying to redirect the targets attack. This combination was first used in an effort to deflect Torrent's 1,000 Wave Torrent to no avail.
