Dance of the Shikigami(Shitsui)

Using his high origami and ninjutsu skills, Shitsui can turn her body and clothing into many sheets of paper.He can control and reshape even parts of his body with sheets at will, making such forms as weapons for attack, butterflies for spying, paper airplanes for quick transport, or simply covering his enemy in sheets of paper, restricting and asphyxiating them.He is also capable of hovering while in her paper form.

This paper is seemingly expendable, including parts of his body converted to paper; and how much paper he can expend depends on his chakra reserve.He can also hide explosive tags amongst his papers to add a deadly surprise to his attacks.

In this form, however,he is weak to oil-based techniques, which causes the paper to stick. he is however not weak against water to the same extent, as seen when Pain washed the oil off his with the Water Release: Wild Bubble Wave technique, his use of paper in his village where it always rains, and later in his battle against Tobi where he divided a lake with her paper. This is shown again later in the anime, as Shitsui uses water to his advantage, soaking her paper body in water so that flames and heat would not burn him.
