Two users both perform the Lightning Release: Lariat from both behind and in front of the opponent, creating a scissor effect. Both users must use the exact same amount of opposing strength or the target will merely bend.[2] When successfully done, the force of the technique will decapitate the target and send their head flying several metres into the air.

Trivia

  • As with many Kumogakure techniques, this technique has an English name given kanji that somewhat match the pronunciation. Usually, the kanji would be pronounced as Zetsugyū Rairi Nettō.
  • This technique is used as a test to see who will be worthy to become the Raikage's tag-team partner, as the potential candidate must be able to synchronise their strength with the Raikage. As such, this technique is feared even outside of Kumogakure.[3]
