Dance of the Clematis: Flower

The second half of Kimimaro's fourth dance. All the power of the Shikotsumyaku is concentrated in to one point in the form of a flower. To obtain the strongest-absolute hardest weapon a considerable amount of chakra is needed. Enhanced to the highest degree-maximum solidity due to the dense compression, the bone weapon is exceedingly large. Since its destructive power has no meaning if the blow does not connect with the opponent. Kimimaro first binds the opponent with a "vine".

It was strong enough to drill a deep dent in Gaara's Ultimately Hard Absolute Defence: Shield of Shukaku, though it was unable to penetrate it before shattering from overpressure.
