While covered in Lightning Release Armour, the Fourth Raikage runs towards the opponent and punches them at maximum speed.

Trivia

• As with many of the techniques of Kumogakure shinobi, this technique has an English name given kanji that somewhat match the pronunciation.
• Though A referred to this as just his "fastest punch" in the manga, this technique is given an explicit name in Naruto Shippūden: Ultimate Ninja Storm 3.
• The only two shinobi to have ever dodged it are Minato Namikaze with his Flying Thunder God Technique, and Naruto Uzumaki while in Nine-Tails Chakra Mode.
