When he strikes or moves his arm, air passes through those openings and Dosu amplifies the vibration with his chakra to direct it at the opponent's ear. The blow does not need to land: narrowly dodging is enough to catch the wave. The gauntlet also serves to stop kunai, and in the Forest of Death it smashes the log of one of Sakura's traps with a single blow. In the story, the effect depends on distance and on the sound being transmitted, and the article does not describe real devices or effects.","lvl":0},{"h":"Lee's ear","t":"The gauntlet's first victim is Rock Lee. In the Forest of Death, Lee uses the Front Lotus on Dosu, but Zaku cushions the fall with his air waves and Dosu strikes Lee's ear from very close. Lee is left dizzy, his vision blurred and his balance gone. Later Shikamaru immobilizes Dosu, and when Sasuke wakes up with the curse mark and breaks Zaku's arms, Dosu hands over his scroll and withdraws with Kin, without trying anything else.","lvl":0,"ch":"naruto-56","pos":56},{"h":"Against Chōji","t":"In the Chūnin Exam preliminaries, Dosu faces Chōji. Chōji puffs up with the Human Boulder and rolls at him at full speed, but Dosu is waiting with the gauntlet: he uses his opponent's own body, inflated and taut as a drum, to send in the sound wave and amplify it. Chōji goes down with a single blow. An opponent who anticipates the wave can avoid it by keeping their distance or covering their ears, but Chōji had no time to read the attack.","lvl":0,"ch":"naruto-87","pos":87},{"h":"An ambition that ends badly","t":"Dosu realizes Orochimaru used them as disposable pieces and decides to make himself valuable on his own: he wants to kill Sasuke before the tournament. The night he runs into Gaara, he tries to get him out of the way first. Gaara partially transforms into Shukaku and kills him with his sand; the gauntlet is not enough. Because of that death, the order of the final round is rearranged. The gauntlet remains an early detail of the Sound: a tool designed to exploit the human ear.","lvl":0,"ch":"naruto-99","pos":99}],"characters":["dosu"],"related":["orochimaru","chakra"],"reference":"Naruto, chapters 52–57 (Forest of Death) and 87 (Dosu against Chōji).","sources":[{"title":"Guía oficial de anime: Naruto y Shippuden","url":"https://naruto-official.com/en/anime"}],"figures":[]}
