Burning Storm (バーニングストーム, Bāningu Sutōmu) is a Continuous Energy Bullet variation of the Buster Cannon used by Future Trunks.

Overview

First, Future Trunks places his hands forward at a 90-degree angle and charges a blue energy sphere. Then, he fires a barrage of energy spheres from the energy sphere at the opponent, inflicting a great deal of damage.

Usage

Future Trunks uses this attack when he and Krillin travel down into Dr. Gero's Laboratory to find and destroy Present Cell. While looking around the lab, Future Trunks discovers the blueprint plans for Android 17 and takes them in order to discover his weak spot. Satisfied with what he has obtained, Future Trunks and Krillin destroy Dr. Gero's lab and his supercomputer containing the Cell embryo, blowing the entire lab to bits. Just prior to blowing up the supercomputer, Future Trunks also made sure to tell the supercomputer that what he was about to do was payback for all the suffering the supercomputer caused in his future.

Trunks charges this technique to attack Baby while on planet Pital, but Baby uses an Explosive Wave to defend himself.

Similar Techniques

In Dragon Ball Z: Super Android 13!, Future Trunks quickly attacks Android 14 with an attack similar to the Burning Storm.

In Dragon Ball Z: Bio-Broly, Trunks uses a similar technique in combination with Goten's energy wave in the Mei Queen Castle.

Kid Trunks has a similar attack in the Butōden series; it is notably one of his Meteor Attacks in Dragon Ball Z: Shin Butōden. The God Breaker he uses in his Super Saiyan form is similar to a Burning Storm.

In the Budokai Tenkaichi series, it is named Burning Storm where it is one of Future Trunks' (Sword) Blast 2 in his base and Super Saiyan forms.

In the Raging Blast series, it is named Burning Storm where it is one of Trunks' (Sword) Super Attacks.

In Kakarot, it is named Burning Storm where it is as one of Future Trunks' learnable Super Attacks. However, in this game it is depicted as ki blast volley fired from both hands which are held over his head as he charges energy for each subsequent blast, followed by a Burning Attack-style energy wave. Additionally, during the ki blast volley portion, the Ki Blasts have homing properties that make it easier to connect hits on enemies within the manually aimed targeting reticle and as a result can be used against multiple enemies. However, the energy wave portion has no homing properties.
