Kai Chisaki only needs one finger. Overhaul takes matter apart on contact and puts it back together however he likes, so the same touch can kill a person, cure them, or fuse them with someone else. Terrain, allies, and enemies are all raw material to him.
Overhaul is an Emitter type Quirk requiring contact, wielded by Kai Chisaki of the Shie Hassaikai. It breaks matter down and rebuilds it with the user's bare hands, working equally on the living and the inert. Once something is taken apart, Kai can leave it in pieces, restore the original, or build something else out of it, and the whole process resolves instantly.
Contact from a single finger is enough to start it, and Kai decides whether the effect claims a whole target or one selected piece of it. He removed Mr. Compress' left arm and nothing else. Turned on his surroundings, both phases fire in quick succession, letting him raise walls, spikes, platforms, and pits anywhere from one point of contact. Broken ground blunts this badly, since disconnected fragments fall outside the reach of a single touch.
Holding two things, one in each hand, he can weld them into a single entity carrying components and Quirks from both, and that hybrid can be merged again with further material. Applied to a person, the rebuild can restore them to a biologically flawless state, healing injuries and ailments alike, though Kai admits the taking apart hurts a great deal.
Everything depends on his arms, which double as his Quirk Factors. Once his arms were wrecked by Mr. Compress and Tomura Shigaraki, the power went with them. He also has to touch something, leaving him helpless in midair or anywhere he cannot make contact, and a brief cooldown separates uses.
Kai Chisaki is the only holder. Outside combat he used the Quirk on Eri, destroying her body, harvesting remains, and reassembling her, so that he could refine her Rewind carrying blood into a drug that reverses a target's Quirk Factor and leaves them Quirkless. Following yakuza habit, he erased evidence by taking victims apart, removing what he wanted, and restoring them intact, a method he also used to press people into joining his organization.
In a fight he leans on instant disassembly and on reshaping the ground into fields of spikes, blocking attacks and repositioning himself as he goes, which makes him dangerous from any distance. Fusing himself with Shin Nemoto gave him a monstrous frame, an extra pair of arms to channel Overhaul through, and access to Shin's Confession. He repeated the trick with Rikiya Katsukame for another jump in power. His mysophobia works against him, since gore thrown off by his own deconstruction can set off a panic if it lands on him. Tomura Shigaraki's Decay amounts to a modified version of this power, with the restoration half stripped away.

Naruto vs Luffy with the twist nobody asked for: Luffy tickled Hinata on date night, and she kind of liked it. We break down the whole fight and commit to a winner....

There are no women on Namek. That isn't an oversight, it's the biology. Why we handed Piccolo the one thing his own species rules out, and why it had to be trap soul....
Yes, Kai Chisaki's Overhaul Quirk relied entirely on his arms, which doubled as his Quirk Factors, and once Mr. Compress and Tomura Shigaraki destroyed his arms, the power went with them.
Overhaul is an Emitter type Quirk wielded by Kai Chisaki of the Shie Hassaikai that breaks matter down and rebuilds it on contact, working equally on people and objects.
A single finger of contact is enough for Kai Chisaki to trigger Overhaul, and he can choose to disassemble a whole target or just one part of it. Whether he leaves something in pieces, restores it, or rebuilds it into something new, the whole process resolves instantly.
Holding another person or object in each hand, Kai Chisaki can weld the two into a single entity carrying components and Quirks from both. He used this on Shin Nemoto and later Rikiya Katsukame to gain a monstrous frame, extra arms, and access to their abilities.
Tomura Shigaraki's Decay is a modified version of Overhaul with the restoration half of the power stripped away.
