King of Hell is a genjutsu technique that summons a giant demonic figure with the apparent use of interrogation. It is capable of discerning whether an individual is lying or not. When used a serpent like apparition emerges from the target's mouth and is consumed by the statue. If the target is telling the truth, nothing happens. If they are lying, they die. When the Naraka Path uses this technique, the figure possesses the Rinnegan eyes similar to how the Animal Path's summons all posses the Rinnegan. The King of Hell can only be seen by the ones it's being used upon.

This technique is likely based on the Japanese myth that the god of hell will rip out your tongue if you lie, a tale told to children to scare them into telling the truth.
