Tenha Kassatsu is a secret Hokuto Shinken technique which follows the Tenha no Kamae stance. It expels tōki from the fingertips, piercing the opponent's body in the shape of the Big Dipper and erupting every vital point. Kenshiro used this technique to counter Souther's Tenshō Jūji Hō and reveal the locations of Souther's inverted vital points.
