Black Receiver

These are black rods created by the Demonic Statue of the Outer Path. They are manipulated using the Outer Path's ability and allow the user to transmit their chakra to it. Nagato implanted chakra receivers into each of his Six Paths of Pain as body piercings. Doing so allowed him to transmit his chakra into the bodies and control them remotely as if they were his own body. The many animals summoned through the Animal Path technique also had a number of these body piercings, suggesting that Nagato controlled them as well. These receivers also allow the user to create chains with which they can bind their target.

According to Shizune, they get hot whenever chakra is being transmitted to them. They are also incredibly durable, as when Shizune was performing an autopsy on the first Animal Path and almost every scalpel she used broke when taking a sample of the rod and later when Naruto attempted to destroy one of them it took quite some time for it to only crack slightly. The Summoning: Demonic Statue of the Outer Path, when used, pierced many chakra receivers through Nagato's back which in turn allowed Nagato to control the statue.

Trivia

 * Nagato has also used modified versions of these receivers to act as blades, allowing him to disrupt his opponents' chakra flow by transmitting his own chakra into their bodies when pierced.
 * The main difference between this and the Chakra Disruption Blades is that these begin transmitting chakra to his Six Paths of Pain when they are activated. Nagato also seemingly went to some lengths to retrieve them. The disruption blades on the other hand, are used in battle and only transmits chakra when Nagato wants.
 * It has been shown that the receivers inserted in the revived jinchūriki move position when they go through a transformation and get bigger. As seen with Rōshi as he transformed into Son Gokū's full form. It moved from the chest, up to its neck.
