TECHNIQUES:

Winter Breathing has 10 known techniques and forms at minimum:

First Form: Immobile Frostbite (Ichi no kata: Fūdō no Tōshō 不動の凍傷)

- The user dashes to their target and within a moment, performs a seemingly singular strike which penetrates a set of short yet precise and accurate swift thrusts resembling a sharp icicle piercing through the air that impales the opponent's vital points (such as the neck, heart, torso, etc.) to render loss/total loss of mobility that lasts depending on the latter's defenses/resistance.

Second Form: Preserved Frost (Ni no kata: Hōzon sareta Shimō 保存された霜)

- The user backflips into the air, simultaneously delivering an overhead slash before somersaulting again to reposition themself to release numerous slashes coming at all directions from afar, overwhelming the opponent.

Third Form: Oscillating Tundra (San no kata: Shindō sūru Tsūndōra 振動するツンドラ)

- The user begins fluctuating to discombobulate the enemy reciprocating snow rolling through tundra, before abruptly kicking off the ground and dashing towards their opponent with speed of sudden translocation, then doing six short, but fleet shallow slashes overlapping one another aiming to blind the opponent, the user then vanishes from view much like a snowflake amidst the snowfall, only to reappear behind their opponent, and performs two stronger helical slashes on top of one another in a rapid succession.

Oscillating Tundra, Luminous Hail (転がるツンドラ、光る雹 Shindō sūru Tsūndōra, Hikaru Hyō) - An improved version of Third Form: Rolling Tundra. The user instead flaunts the enemy continuously, while subsequently releasing flurries of hail-like slashes, each strike twisting and curving resembling the frozen shards of a hailstorm, striking their opponent from unexpected angles.

Fourth Form: Dancing Glacier Tundra, Northern Gale (Shi no kata: Odōru Hyōga Tsūndōra, Kitakaze 踊る氷河ツンドラ、北風)

- The user bends their blade in a swift glacial motion alongside their body in unison, dancing gracefully in a waltz-snowflake pattern concurrently shredding everything in its path fluidly during the dance-esque state to pulverize everything within a vast range.

Fifth Form: Distant Snow, Devouring Ice (Go no kata: Tōku no Yuki, Mūsaboru kōri 遠い雪、貪る氷)

- The user leaps up, adjusting their footwork in a way that allows them to move freely even without any solid foothold before releasing innumerable, rapid whirling slashes in front/around them as they pass to obliterate multiple opponents at once aerially.

Sixth Form: Extirpating Blizzard (Roku no kata: Genzetsu sūru Fūbūki 根絶する吹雪)

- The user spins and twists their upper body in a circular motion which unleashes a flurry of five-layered cyclonic slashes on top of the other in a quick succession that freezes the air around it to numb the opponent's limbs and impedes their movements.

Seventh Form: Gale Dragon's Thunderclap (Shichi no kata: Hayate Ryū no Gōrai 疾風竜の轟雷)

- The user advances to their target at blistering speeds that accelerate over time as they primarily focus their strength to their legs to perform this at a vigorous rate of speed while simultaneously releasing flurries of dozen gyrating slashes that annihilates everything obstructing its path and is significantly enhanced by the momentum of their speed.

Kuraokami Ryūjin (闇龗 龍神, Shichi no kata: Kuraokami Ryūjin, lit: Seventh Form: Gale Dragon's Thunderclap) - An extension of Seventh Form: Gale Dragon's Thunderclap created by Akari Fuyutsuki. The user performs Gale Dragon’s Thunderclap while drastically augmenting its speed overtime, allowing the user to travel faster than the speed of light for no more than 2 seconds to the point where user's silhouette phantasms a blue dragon.

Eighth Form: Eternal Sleetstorm (Hachi no Kata: Eien no Mizōre Arashi 永遠のみぞれ嵐)

- The user somersaults into the air, kicking off the ground with a great amount of force to enhance the released barrage of rapid downcast slashes from afar that ends with a more powerful one symbolizing an array of ice pellets, capable of deflecting projectiles. Versatile as it may serve as either offense or defense.

Perpetual Hailstorm (永久のあられ嵐 Eikyū no Arare Arashi) - An alternate variation of Eighth Form: Eternal Sleetstorm created by Akari Fuyutsuki. The user hurriedly unleashes dozens of downcast slashes on top of one another raining down on the opponent much like a hailstorm to defend from all incoming attacks and to overwhelm the opponent. Often used during urgently critical situations to parry midair, especially when foothold is elusive.

Ninth Form: Hypothermic Winter Gale (Ku no Kata: Teitaionshō no Fuyu no arashi 低体温の冬の嵐)

- The user flutters their blade swiftly in a flowing manner as they rush around their opponent at speeds that formulates a frigid blizzard that meddles with the opponent's senses over time, making their movements considerably slower and sluggish, rendering their attacks weaker and predictable. Typically, instantaneously followed/accompanied by another attack.

Tenth Form: Crystallized Tumult (Jū no kata: Kesshō-ka shita sōran 結晶化した騒乱)

- The user appears stagnant while executing a series of delayed-barrages of impeccable slashes that almost eradicates all incoming attacks resulting in a powerful shockwave emitting from the sheer speed which typically conjures a blizzard that obscures the user's whereabouts and makes their following movements unreadable. However, the technique's effectiveness is limited, as faster and resilient attacks can break through the process leading to the limited duration of the blizzard.

yes, I thought of all this back then.

Here's a thought.

Do you think the glasses ever fogged up? Do you think the big bad Winter Soldier ever walked into a room looking all menacing and shit but blind as a rat?

Resident evil fans going "I love evil women" when it's Lady Dimitrescu because she's sexualised by the fandom but hating Mia with completely unwarranted vitriol when she's a human who made Mistakes. Do I need to keep saying it.

WINTER BREATHING

Winter Breathing (冬ふゆの呼こ吸きゅう, Fuyu no kokyū) is a Breathing Style derived from Water Breathing alongside Wind Breathing.

Winter Breathing is a breathing style that mimics ice and snow, specifically their smooth yet sharp structure and replicates it with the user's movements which grants speed to it's user and portrays the effects sub-zero temperatures have on objects, specifically hypothermia and frostbite. Most, if not all, known techniques involve the user bending their body, limbs and weapon in a sharp, swift and fluid motion to gracefully yet instantaneously shred anything within an enormous range accompanied by drastic and almost fatal decreases of temperature. If one utilizes this technique effectively and properly, the use of swift penetration tampering with the opponent's senses is capable of inevitably restraining all movements rendering them paralyzed as the user moves nimbly cadence capable of stirring winds to the point of formulating blizzards which heavily impacts the temperature, decreasing it at a level enough to inflict Hypothermia. Users of Winter Breathing also visualize themselves seemingly manifesting and manipulating destructive natural disasters related to winter itself (mainly avalanches, blizzards, tundras, snowstorms, etc...) when unleashing its techniques.

This Breathing Style was created by Akari Fuyutsuki, who ingeniously modified and amalgamated both the Water Breathing and Wind Breathing techniques to suit her slender and agile form. With a keen focus on adapting the technique to complement her petite and nimble physique, she harnessed her height advantage to execute precise and accurate strikes with remarkable flexibility and astonishing swiftness.

Akari's exceptional control over her body's light density further enhances her agility, allowing her to unleash a relentless onslaught of rapid and devastating blows. This unique attribute empowers her to swiftly incapacitate a single target or engage multiple adversaries within an expansive radius. In doing so, she effectively compensates for her inability to dispatch enemies with a single strike, ensuring that her offensive prowess remains formidable

TRIVIA! there's more to it!

Winter Breathing stands as an incredibly potent and versatile technique, uniquely suited for combat against a wide array of adversaries. Diverging from a reliance on raw strength, this style places a paramount emphasis on speed, potentially rivaling, if not surpassing, the agility of Insect Breathing. However, Thunder Breathing remains the sole known style to surpass it in terms of swiftness.

Notably, Winter Breathing prioritizes attributes such as speed, agility, flexibility, precision, and accuracy, underscoring its adaptability in diverse combat scenarios.

Executing the techniques of Winter Breathing requires exceptional visual acuity, as precise and accurate maneuvers are essential. Although originating from Water and Wind Breathing, Winter Breathing exhibits intriguing parallels with Mist, Thunder, and Insect Breathing techniques. Acknowledging her limited knowledge of these other techniques, Akari humbly acknowledges this fact upon its discovery. Recognizing the constraints of her physical strength, she capitalizes on her diminutive and nimble build to achieve decapitations through astonishing inhuman speed. This approach ensures that unfortunate demons often remain oblivious to being struck until the realization dawns upon them that they have been swiftly beheaded.

The rapidity with which Akari wields Winter Breathing serves to minimize the suffering endured by her opponents. Furthermore, depending on the velocity of her attacks, Winter Breathing can induce a numbing effect in adversaries, effectively determining the degree of pain they experience prior to their inevitable demise.

Theory: The Clone X was not Cody like some people think or even Fives (I know he's been dead for a very long time but so was Boba Fett and look where we are. Plus, Echo was supposed to be certainly dead too; making him Winter Soldier-esque storyline wouldn't be that surprising) or not even Slick.

((Also, now that we've seen his face devoid of any tattoos or scars I think first two takes are definitely not applicable anymore; they wouldn't put that much effort to make him unrecognizable))

Back to the point: In my opinion, The Clone X was none other than...

Fox.

Now let me explain.

Who else, other than X, was loyal to the law and justice dictated by it over any moral or ethic code?

Fox.

Who else was portrayed with such single-minded focus on hunting down traitors of the government he served, regardless of what it was?

Fox.

Who else could know not only Coruscant so well but also identify Rex like they knew each other?

He already was a remarkably successful tracker of traitors, why not make him more efficient by pointing them out for him?

Good soldiers follow orders, after all.
