Banshō Ten'in

Banshō Ten'in is a technique that manipulates attractive force ( 引力 , inryoku ) to pull matter towards the user at will. It has the same five second limit as the Shinra Tensei as stated by Chōji Akimichi . The area of effect can be localised, so it is possible to selectively attract a target or targets without affecting the object or the structure they're connected to. It is also possible to attract multiple targets at once, causing them to collide with each other. The ability to manipulate attractive forces with this technique is granted by the Deva Path much like its counterpart Shinra Tensei .

## Other Media [ ]

An enhanced, "Full Throttle" version of Banshō Ten'in appears in Naruto Shippūden: Shinobi Rumble , called "Banshō Ten'in: Dōmetsu" ( 万象天引・導滅 , literally meaning: Heavenly Attraction of All Creation: Guiding Destruction).

In Naruto Shippūden: Ultimate Ninja Impact , Nagato can also use it to lift the ground and throw it at the opponent, called "Banshō Ten'in: Jidō" ( 万象天引・地動 , literally meaning: Heavenly Attraction of All Creation: Ground Motion).

## Influence [ ]

The names of Banshō Ten'in and its companion ability, Shinra Tensei , are derived from Shinra Banshō ( 神羅万象 , literally meaning: Everything Covered by God), a Japanese four-character idiom and homophone variant of Shinra Banshō ( 森羅万象 , literally meaning: All-Covering Forests and Ten Thousand Things), a Buddhist idiom which has come to mean "All Nature" or "All Creation".

## Trivia [ ]

- In Naruto Shippūden: Ultimate Ninja Storm 3 , Nagato and Madara pull their opponent through a black sphere like Chibaku Tensei .
- Sasuke Uchiha uses a technique to summon the sealed Tailed Beasts near the God Tree 's stump to where he was above the Valley of the End near him, which may have been this technique or a variant of it.
- In Naruto Mobile , the technique uses a black core similar to Chibaku Tensei to bind a target to it, allowing the user to repeatedly slam them into the ground or pull them into the air. It is also able to be used in combination with Shinra Tensei, despite the fact that the techniques overlap their five second limit.
