This body's "Energy Absorption" ability was its primary use, since it was capable of absorbing any ninjutsu-related technique, thereby nullifying its effect.

Appearance
The Preta path is the body of a fat, bulky man with six spike stud piercings covering his entire bottom lip, two studs vertical on the front of his nose, two spike studs one on each cheek, a metal bar going through each ear, and a stud on his shoulder one on each side close to his neck. Originally this body was from Kusagakure.

Abilities
This body's "Energy Absorption" ability is primarily defensive, since he is capable of absorbing any ninjutsu-related technique, thereby nullifying its effect. This technique can also take the form of a large bubble around his body, allowing it to absorb attacks from any direction. In addition to its defensive properties, this body's ability has also shown offensive capabilities, sucking all the chakra out of any target unfortunate enough to be grabbed by him. However, this body seems to be weak against physical attacks, as one punch to the face (albeit imbued with natural energy) is enough to kill it. The force from the punch most likely snapped the body's neck. This body is later incapacitated by Naruto when he transferred too much natural energy into it and turned into a statue of a toad.
