Lightning Release: Lariat



The user charges at his opponent, striking them with a Lariat move. This strike is powerful enough to blow away the target's entire chest. The attack is straightforward, though, and can be easily seen through with the Sharingan.

When Killer Bee uses this attack, he creates either a chakra cloak or chakra bones, both in the form of bull's horns. He refers to this as his sword, next to his seven conventional katana.

When the current Raikage uses it, he surrounds himself with his Lightning Release Armor, rather than tailed-beast chakra. His high-level chakra, which is equal to that of a tailed beast, would produce the same effect as Killer Bee's version. The two brothers can combine their efforts to perform a Double Lariat.

Trivia

 * As with many of the techniques of Kumogakure ninja, this technique has an English name given kanji that somewhat match the pronunciation. Usually, the kanji would be pronounced as Rairi Nettō.
