Black Lightning

Black Lightning is a legendary form of Lightning Release pioneered by the Third Raikage , who famously passed the secret technique down to Darui alone. As the name suggests, the lightning produced is pitch-black in color and possesses destructive power that is significantly more powerful and destructive than standard lightning, although not much is actually known about it.
