Talk:Dark Release

Square marks
They're also on Ni's back, and in the scrolls San used to summon her and Ichi. Mention it here or is somewhere else more appropriate? Omnibender - Talk - Contributions 03:55, April 23, 2010 (UTC)
 * I'm not quite sure now, because it seems that the Dark Release and Chimera technique constantly overlap. --GoDai (talk) 05:02, April 23, 2010 (UTC)

Kekkai genkai
Any idea if when Hiruko absorbs the techniques, if he can use them again whenever he wants? And can Inhaling Maw absorb Kekkai Genkai?
 * Dark Release is kinda weird, because it seems to overlap a bit with the Chimera Technique. It seems to absorb chakra, but I don't think it absorbs kekkei genkai. Omnibender - Talk - Contributions 21:11, April 23, 2010 (UTC)
 * It was definitley said he gained Dark Release using Chimera Technique. Maybe normal Dark Release isn't used with the mark, and he just absorbed the original kekkei genkai and integrated it into the mark on his hand. The mark might just be related to Chimera technique. --GoDai (talk) 21:15, April 23, 2010 (UTC)
 * Most likely, since Ni had it in her back, and in the scrolls San used to summon Ichi and Ni. Omnibender - Talk - Contributions 21:21, April 23, 2010 (UTC)
 * My guess is that he used several slightly different methods when he absorbed each of the kekkei genkai using the Chimera Technique, and maybe when he absorbed Dark Release, he absorbed it in such a manner that the kekkei genkai was "sealed" into the mark. That's the only idea that makes sense to me now. --GoDai (talk) 21:26, April 23, 2010 (UTC)

So just throwin it out there, if say....Hiruko used to Dark Release to take some of Yamato's chakra, would he be able to use Mokuton? Or if someone with Hyoton used a technique, and Hiruko absorbed it with Inhaling Maw, would he be able to then use it, as he used Naruto's Rasengan and Kakashi's Raikiri? I'm just looking for opinions here. All answers are appreciated.
 * Don't start a discussion on speculation, and my answer is only Maybe. I'd mostly say no, as if he could use Dark Release to absorb and learn any other element, why would he need to steal Storm, Steel, or Swift with the Chimera technique? --GoDai (talk) 06:13, April 25, 2010 (UTC)
