The Zero Point Breakthrough (Spoilers)

I decided to start a new thread on this topic because I'm sure there are a lot of other questions on how exactly this thing works... I know I was very confused for a long time.

To start with, this is continued from the Mafia gathering thread...

I just noticed something about the zero point break-through technique

were all the Vongola bosses able to perform this technique? Since in the sky ring battle they were saying that the ninth performed the technique on Xanxus thus encasing him in ice. But in earlier chapters they were saying that only the 1st Vongola boss was able to perform it, While Tsuna was training. Can someone elaborate on this?

I think the only one who was able to REALLY master it was the 1st... So, the others might be able to do it as well, but not as perfect as the 1st and Tsuna, since their fighting style is the same...

I always thought The first invented it and therefore has all the Fame for using it. Everyone else is just copying his technique (ironically Xanxcus blames Tsuna for that while he recklessly copies nr. 2 and 7)

but Tsuna is better anyway because he found the first edition out by himself and he invented the revised stance ^^

Well, remember how Reborn was very preplexed that Xanxus knew how the zero point breakthrough was supposed to look like and what it did? It was only Reborn and Basil who said nobody could do it since the First. Perhaps Reborn just didn't know the 9th was able to perform the zero point breakthrough. Apart from the 9th, Xanxus and Squalo, maybe nobody knew at all.

However, I think that the other Bosses may not have mastered the Zero Point Breakthrough, whether in secret or not. If you think about it, the Zero Point Breakthrough is a defensive move. It's supposed to absorb an attack. If the Boss were the crazy attack everything type (like Xanxus), they may not bother with learning a defensive mode.
