This article is about the kekkei genkai made up of the earth and fire natures. For the nature based on physical energy that governs life, see Yōton.

Lava Release (溶遁; 熔遁, Yōton, English TV: "Corrosion Style" or "Lava Style") is a nature transformation kekkei genkai, a combination of fire and earth. Whereas most kekkei genkai are largely identical between users, Lava Release has a variety of forms depending on who's using it.

Forms

	Molten rock, both in solid and liquid states, is created by Son Gokū and its jinchūriki.
	Acidic mud is created by Mei Terumī of Kirigakure, a form unique to her.^[1] In the anime, it is initially depicted as molten rock.
	Corrosive quicklime is created by several Iwagakure shinobi.^[2] In the anime, it is also used by Kyūsuke of Amegakure.
	Vulcanised rubber, which is strong against Lightning Release,^[3] is used by Dodai of Kumogakure. Sasuke Shinden notes that this form is in fact common among Kumo's leadership. Karyū also uses this version.
	Volcanic ash is created by Kurotsuchi of Iwagakure.^[4] She also uses its quicklime form.
In Gaara Hiden, melting flames are created by Etoro Konjiki of Ishigakure.

Trivia

There is a subtle difference in the meaning of the kanji used for this kekkei genkai. Although both mean "to melt", the kanji with the "fire" (火) radical (熔) is outdated and means "melting with fire", whereas nowadays the kanji with the "water" (水) radical (溶) is normally used. Mei Terumī's Lava Release: Melting Apparition Technique, which utilises a strong acidic fluid, is the only Lava Release technique written with 溶. This, along with Jin no Sho stating that Mei's Lava Release kekkei genkai can only be used by her,^[1] indicates a difference between 溶遁 and 熔遁.
- In Sha no Sho, the "water" kanji is used in Rōshi's entry, whereas in the glossary, the "fire" kanji is used. In Jin no Sho, only the "fire" kanji is used for Rōshi's Lava Release.

 == Trivia ==
-* When Rōshi's Lava Release is first referred to, the kanji 熔, with the radical for {{translation|"fire"|火}}, is used. In later references when Mei's is used, the kanji 溶, with the radical for {{translation|"water"|水}}, is used instead. When both Kurotsuchi and Dodai used it, it was once again with the fire radical. This seems to indicate that the Lava Release from [[Iwagakure]] and [[Kumogakure]] uses the fire radical, while the Lava Release from [[Kirigakure]] uses the water radical. However, in the data and fan books, both kanji have been used to refer to Rōshi's Lava Release.
+* There is a subtle difference in the meaning of the kanji used for this kekkei genkai. Although both mean "to melt", the kanji with the {{translation|"fire"|火}} [[wikipedia:Radical (Chinese characters)|radical]] (熔) is outdated and means "melting with fire", whereas nowadays the kanji with the {{translation|"water"|水}} radical (溶) is normally used. Mei Terumī's [[Lava Release: Melting Apparition Technique]], which utilises a strong acidic fluid, is the only Lava Release technique written with 溶. This, along with ''[[Jin no Sho]]'' stating that Mei's Lava Release kekkei genkai can only be used by her,<ref name="d4" /> indicates a difference between 溶遁 and 熔遁.
+** In ''[[Sha no Sho]]'', the "water" kanji is used in [[Rōshi]]'s entry, whereas in the glossary, the "fire" kanji is used. In ''Jin no Sho'', only the "fire" kanji is used for Rōshi's Lava Release.
-** Nowadays, the two kanji are synonyms and used interchangeably, with 溶 being the more common variant. However, there seems to be a subtle difference in meaning between the two. The kanji with the fire radical seems to be used more often in words relating to metal and other solids, whereas the kanji with the water radical is more often used in words relating to liquids.
-* This kekkei genkai element shows the most different users with no known blood connection to each other, from most varied villages.
-* Lava Release shares the same romanisation as [[Yang Release]].
