Earth Release: Double Suicide Decapitation Technique


 * Name: Doton: Shinjū Zanshu no Jutsu, 土遁・心中斬首の術, literally "Earth Release: Inner Decapitation Technique", Viz "Earth Style: Groundhog Technique Decapitation", English TV "Earth Style: Headhunter Jutsu"
 * Type: B-rank, Supplementary, Short range (0-5m)
 * Users: Kakashi Hatake, Third Hokage, Kabuto Yakushi, Tobi, Tsunade

The user, emerging from the ground below the target area, pulls down (or possibly swaps places with) the opponent so that only their head is above ground. Kabuto tried to use this technique on Tsunade, but was unsuccessful in grabbing her.

It is actually unlikely that Kabuto was attempting to use this particular technique on Tsunade; instead, he was likely using his Chakra Scalpel to try to cut the tendons in her legs. This is more likely than actually using the Inner Decapitation Technique, since he successfully performed the scalpel technique on Shizune.
