This technique is similar in practice to Eight Trigrams Palms Revolving Heaven, but has a specific target rather than a general area. To perform it, the user precisely pinpoints the enemy's vital points with the Byakugan and releases a high-speed palm thrust. A "vacuum shell" compressed using the Gentle Fist is formed to attack the opponent's vitals from a distance, blowing them off their feet with tremendous force before they even notice they were hit.

Trivia

• In Naruto: Shippūden episode 279, White Zetsu Army clone disguised as Hinata performed this technique against Shino's insect clone.
• In chapter 616, this technique is powered up by the nine-tails chakra transfered to Hinata. She's been able to knock back one of the ten-tails arm which was blocked by Hiashi's air palm barrier.
