Sonído

is a technique used by Arrancar which allows them to move at extreme speeds, making it highly similar to the Hohō (or Flash Steps as they are called in the English Dub) that Shinigami use. While somewhat similar to Hohō, Sonído appears to be more instinctual than Hohō, requiring no previous knowledge to perform. It also makes a different sound; rather than the swishing or sometimes silent Flash Step of the Shinigami, Sonido makes a booming or static sound.

Variations

 * Zommari Leroux is the only Arrancar shown to have been able to use this technique and it allows him to create clones of himself. Up to five clones can be created using this technique. Because of this, Zommari claims that he is the fastest Espada; this, however, may not be true because of the fact that there are six more Espada of higher rank than himself.
