A earth golem hanging upsidedown, [Source] A technique passed down from the Tsuchikage for generations, earth golems were the Stone Village's attempt to field as few shinobi as possible while achieving as much, if not more, combat objectives. While incomplete until after Onoki's reign, coming to fruition in the Akuta, they greatly helped fend off their enemy's puppet masters during the first three shinobi world wars.
