Kinmoku Fusion Tempest was an attack used by Sailor Kakyuu in the manga and Crystal, and by Princess Kakyuu in the musicals.
In the manga, it was similar to Sailor Jupiter's Flower Hurricane, in that it was a flurry of flowers (in this case, of osmanthus blossoms) which did not harm the target but was used defensively. It only appeared in Act 57, where Sailor Kakyuu used it to block Sailor Phi's attack, Galactica Plants Blizzard.
The attack appeared in the second part of Sailor Moon Cosmos as in the manga. In that version, the central star of Sailor Kakyuu's tiara flashed with red light before she spun and lifted her arms in the air as yellow osmanthus flowers and red rose petals spiraled around her. She then stretched her arms out in front of herself as she called out the attack's name, sending a red energy beam surrounded by a flurry of the flower petals toward her target.
In the musicals, this attack only appeared in Kakyuu-Ouhi Kourin, where it was used as an offensive attack by Princess Kakyuu against Sailor Galaxia.

- In the musicals, the Sailor Starlights used a group attack called Starlights Fusion Tempest.
