A new image designed by Toyotaro featured on the official Dragon Ball website has sparked a lively debate among fans regarding the incredible power of Master Roshi (Muten Roshi). Enthusiasts of this legendary manga and anime are currently discussing the strongest techniques of the Turtle School’s martial arts master.

The latest image from Toyotaro showcases Roshi performing a technique called Bankoku Bikkuri Shō (Thunder Shock Surprise). This is a Ki technique that allows Master Roshi to unleash a massive surge of energy against his opponents, rendering them completely incapacitated. Although it may seem weaker than the Kamehameha, this technique opens up new opportunities to strike from unexpected angles.
Toyotaro’s new design has revived interest in the legendary martial arts techniques, reminding us that strength is not just about overwhelming power but also involves wisdom and the ability to use techniques effectively.
Is Bankoku Bikkuri Shō Master Roshi’s strongest technique?
Many fans may disagree, but we certainly recognize the significance of Bankoku Bikkuri Shō.
Now, let’s explore the top 5 strongest techniques of Master Roshi in Dragon Ball:
Kamehameha
There is no doubt that this is the most iconic technique of Roshi and of Dragon Ball as a whole. It involves concentrating energy in the palms and releasing it as a powerful wave of destructive force. Created by Master Roshi himself, the Kamehameha has become a legacy of his, used by Goku, Gohan, Krillin, and many others.
Maximum Power (Maximum Strength)

This transformation allows Roshi to reach his peak power level. When activated, his physical abilities are greatly enhanced, although the effect does diminish over time. In this state, Roshi can unleash a Kamehameha powerful enough to obliterate mountains.
Bankoku Bikkuri Shō
This technique creates a massive electric field. Roshi opens both hands and unleashes a powerful electrical attack against his foes. It is particularly effective against stronger opponents and demonstrates Roshi’s strategic fighting style.
Mafuba (Evil Containment Wave)
This is one of the most dangerous and high-stakes techniques designed to seal away hostile entities into a container. Although it does not destroy opponents, it can effectively contain formidable foes like the demon Piccolo. Utilizing Mafuba requires a significant amount of energy, making it a last-resort technique.
In addition to these powerful techniques, Roshi has also shared his extensive combat experience. In Dragon Ball Super, he surprised many by defeating numerous formidable fighters in the Tournament of Power by utilizing fundamental techniques, perfect strategy, and an impressive understanding of combat.
