Earth Release: Dire Shield

After forming the needed hand seals, Sōjōbō will spit a thick stream of mud onto the floor from his mouth. Stomping the ground, a large thick wall made of rock will rise up in front of him. What differentiates this technique from the standard is that the wall absorbs chakra that it comes into contact with. This increases its defensive capabilities and allows Sōjōbō to mitigate the damage from his enemies attacks by a long shot.
