Sand Lightning Needles


 * Name: Thunder God of Sand (砂雷神 literally "Sand Thunder God")
 * Type: No rank, Offensive, All ranges
 * Users: Gaara

This jutsu was first seen during the second Naruto Movie to battle Ranke's Plasma Ball technique. Thunder God of Sand is very similar to Sand Drizzle in that Gaara launches a large amount of sand in the sky to rain down on the opponent. However, the difference is that instead of this attack leading into Desert Coffin, the sand forms needles which stick into the ground. The needles open like little antenna and create an electrical charge that drained or otherwise neutralized Ranke of all of her electricty disabling her ability to block Gaara's attacks.
