Chakra Absorption Techniques


 * Name:
 * Type: Special ability
 * Users: Yoroi Akado, Jirobo
 * Debut (Anime): Episode 39
 * Debut (Manga): Chapter 67

The Chakra Absorption Technique allows the user to absorb the physical and spiritual energy of an opponent. The user can absorb all of the opponent's chakra, causing death and also granting the user much more power. In the anime, it has been shown that stored-up energy can also be released in the form of a shockwave.

The user doesn't have to actually touch the opponent, since it is also possible to use it through other media, as Jirobo did with his Earth Release Barrier: Earth Prison Dome of Magnificent Nothingness. The only necessary condition is some medium through which chakra can be channelled.

It is unknown if this technique is truly considered a jutsu or not since it has never been given an entry in any of the data books; however, it is not considered a kekkei genkai ability, either as it has been performed by two people with no known relation.
