Water Release: Water Dragon Bullet Technique

The user gathers a large amount of water and shapes it into a giant dragon, which is launched at the target with formidable might. While the technique can be performed by using a nearby water source as a medium, if the user is skilled enough, it can be performed without one. The amount of water used is proportional to the user's skill.

Trivia

 * When written as "水流", suiryū means "water current".
 * During this technique's first appearance, forty-four hand seals were used to perform it; the highest amount of hand seals necessary to use a technique shown in the series so far. Later appearances of this technique, however, have implied that the exact number of seals required isn't fixed.
 * In Naruto Shippūden the Movie, when Shizuku was under the influence of medically altered chakra, she was able to control the water dragon to seek out her targets from a great distance.
