The user forms a cube or cone of energy between their hands that expands on touching the target and disintegrates it at the molecular level, leaving nothing behind. Ōnoki, the Third Tsuchikage, shows it against Sasuke at the Kage Summit. Not just anyone from Iwagakure has it, and using it takes preparation, hand control and a great deal of chakra.","lvl":1,"ch":"naruto-466","ep":"shippuden-204","pos":466},{"h":"It does not come with the blood","t":"Kurotsuchi is Ōnoki's granddaughter, but that does not give her Dust Style. She uses Lava Style and earth techniques, like the quicklime she spits to pin Kabuto down. Ōnoki, for his part, protects the island turtle against Kabuto and the reanimated Deidara, and makes clear that his technique is learned from a teacher, not inherited. Ōnoki's techniques for making his body lighter or heavier are not part of Dust Style either: they are earth techniques he uses separately.","lvl":1,"ch":"naruto-514","pos":514},{"h":"Teacher and student","t":"Ōnoki learned Dust Style from Mū, the Second Tsuchikage. In the war, Kabuto reanimates Mū and pits him against his student. Mū has advantages: he can turn invisible and split in two to escape a Dust Style attack. The fight is only settled when Naruto and Gaara help seal him. The teacher knowing the technique lets him anticipate it, and Ōnoki needs help to finish the fight. Mū and Ōnoki are not related: Dust Style passed from teacher to student.","lvl":1,"ch":"naruto-553","pos":553},{"h":"Against Madara","t":"The Five Kage face Madara, and Ōnoki hits him with his Dust Style, but Madara dodges or shields himself with Susanoo and wood clones. Later, Ōnoki uses dust to hold off those clones. It is an extremely powerful technique, but it takes a heavy toll on the body and is easy to anticipate if the opponent knows it. During the fight, Ōnoki is worn out by age and chakra use, but gets back up to protect the Alliance.","lvl":1,"ch":"naruto-588","pos":588}],"characters":["mu","onoki"],"related":["chakra","iwagakure","kekkei-genkai"],"reference":"Reading guide for the series indicated.
