The Eight Trigrams Thirty-Two Palms technique is a maneuver of the Gentle Fist fighting style. It is essentially a halved version of the Eight Trigrams Sixty-Four Palms, but seems to be no less effective. This technique is used to close off the flow of chakra through thirty-two chakra points of an opponent's Chakra Pathway System. This eliminates their ability to use chakra for quite some time and makes it difficult for them to move.

Once someone is within range of her field of divination, Hinata assumes her Gentle Fist stance (see picture) and begins to deliver her attack:

  • First, two strikes to make two.
  • Second, another two strikes to make four.
  • Third, four strikes to make eight.
  • Fourth, eight strikes to make sixteen.
  • Fifth, and then another sixteen strikes in succession to make a total of thirty two.
