you clearly do not know how to read. the manga clearly states that even taijutsu users expend chakra. if a taijutsu user fights for say an hour after an hour they will be exhausted both physically and with chakra. like i said chakra is not used externally and as such when fighting a person who absorbs chakra the person can not weaken there taijutsu by absorbing chakra but they can still weaken them in general. if a person has no chakra they can not use taijutsu. punching a person is simply punching a person. but when using high level taijutsu like Guy and Rock lee you do indeed use chakra thats a fact. for instance when fighting Naruto Neji closed all of Naruto's Tenketsu. Naruto tried to fight with them closed but Neji told him it was futile because with out chakra Naruto had no strength chakra is required to do everything including basic movements with out chakra a shinobi can barely move only high level shinobi who have enormous strength can still move like when Kisame broke out if his restraints with only physical prowess, everyone remarked how strong he was with no chakra left. meaning only the most powerful of shinobi can do such stuff with out chakra. chakra is made up of two energies Physical and spiritual with out chakra you literally do not have enough physical energy to do anything. but like keep saying they still require chakra to do taijutsu hence the reason if a shinobi were to specialize in taijutsu and were to fight for 3 days after 3 days they would have no chakra left That is a fact thats why they eat food rations(to give them self extra chakra) when fighting Rock Lee sasuke noted how strong the chakra in lee's arm was and thats because Lee trains really really really really hard.

Thank you for the insults. They seem par for the course in my discussions with you.

1. A lack of chakra could imply an inability to mix the energies, not a lack of the energies.

2. It has been stated, in manga, that you can use taijutsu without chakra, since the Chunin Exams. Chakra can be used to enhance techniques (examples: Daytime Tiger, Hidden Lotus), or it can be left out completely (examples: Lion Combo, Dynamic Entry).

3. There is an implied difference, therefore between stamina (the ability to be physically active, based upon the ATP contained in cells produced by the Krebs Cycle or Lactic Acid) and chakra. Someone out of stamina will be unable to fight, chakra or no chakra. They will be too injured by the advanced stress to the body and to exhausted to move. Someone out of chakra can still fight, assuming they have stamina. They will merely be limited to those taijutsu techniques that require no chakra input.
