Flora Release: Solar Outburst

This is Hanaba Kihane's most powerful technique in conjunction with the Flora Transformation: Gaia's Avatar. After gathering enough chakra, the flowers growing on the user's body seperates from their vines and spread out around the user and their target in a circle. The user channels chakra into each of the flowers and causes them to activate a extreme version of photosynthesis, drawing enourmous amounts of sunlight. The user then clasps their hands together and releases the chakra from the flowers. The end result is the flowers spinning around the user and target at a high speed and creating a barrier of solar energy. The heat of the barrier is so intense, touching it leads to severe burning. Afterwards, the flowers channel all of the solar energy they gathered into one spot above the user and their target. The user then unleashes the solar energy as a white shockwave that slams upon both them and the target, dealing extreme impact damage and a white-hot explosion that spreads out for up to a kilometer. This techniques drains the flowers of their chakra and kills them, and leaves a gigantic crater of flames of molten rock.

This techniques has many downfalls with it. For one, the flowers that are used for the jutsu die and their replacements for the user take days to weeks to mature. Secondly, the attack uses its caster as the medium, meaning that the user is also targeted by the jutsu and is almost always killed in the subsequent attack, labeling this as a kinjutsu. Lastly, if the user does survive, they suffer devastating burns and broken bones. The burns can be undone if they revert to their human form, but the broken bones remain. Also, the attack forces them to be unable to use any Flora Release technique for a long time.
