Notable Attacks/Techniques:

Haki: There are normally two types of Haki regular people can tap into: the Kenbunshoku Haki which allows individuals to sense the presence of others, and Busōshoku Haki which allows individuals to create an invisible armor around them. There is, however, a third type of Haki, Haōshoku Haki, that only a few individuals can use. Burgess is not one of these people.

  • Busōshoku Haki (Color of Armaments): A form of Haki that allows the user to create an "invisible armor" around themselves. With that, they can protect themselves from attacks, and if trained well, use it to deliver stronger attacks. It is the only form of attack that doesn't involve Kairouseki that can hit any Devil Fruit user, being able to hit the user's original body even if it's a Logia user. It can also be used in weapons.

    • Busoshoku: Koka (Color of Armaments: Hardening): Burgess uses Busōshoku Haki to drastically harden parts of his body (typically his fists, but can also be used defensively). Basically, whereas basic Busoshoku Haki surrounds the user's body with a hard armor, Koka hardens the body itself, giving a larger increase in attack power and toughness.

  • Kenbunshoku Haki (Color of Observation or Mantra): A form of Haki that allows the user to sense the presence of his opponents. A user of this type of Haki can predict an opponent's moves before he gets hit. This works by showing the user an image or brief "premonition" of what the opponent will do, manifested as a mental image in the user's mind's eye, and the damage the user will take if the attack "hit" for real. It appears that the more killer intent the enemy has the easier they are to predict, though more efficient users can predict future moves regardless of whether there are ambient murderous intents or not. Including the distance, location, and where the opponent may strike next.

 

- Rika Rika no Mi (Strong Strong no Mi): A Paramecia-type Devil Fruit that significantly augments the user's physical strength. Burgess showcased his new abilities by lifting a mountain with ease. It is currently unknown if the Rika Rika no Mi has any additional weaknesses or physical augmentations.

 

- Surge Elbow: Burgess cocks back his arm and swings his elbow at speeds so fast it produces a shockwave.

Galleon Lariat (Unsinkable Battleship Lariat): Burgess delivers a powerful close-line to his opponent. This technique is capable of destroying buildings with ease with a single swipe.
