Ten-Finger Drilling Bullets

Kimimaro parts his fingertips, creating holes that expose hardened finger bones. In volleys (five per hand), he shoots these bone bullets at a target by swinging his hand,Naruto chapter 215 causing a loud sound as they're fired. The bullets travel incredibly quickly through the air and take a spinning motion. Upon impact, the bullets tear through skin, flesh, and bone. The bullets aren't able to penetrate the Shield of Sand,Naruto chapter 213 but in the anime, they can pierce samurai armour.Naruto: Shippūden episode 307 Kimimaro relies on this technique for his long-range attacks.
