Nature Assimilation Technique

This technique is one of Chizuru Negame's unique techniques. It is said that the technique was transferred to her son Taro Hyūga in birth, though he hasn't shown any proof of it yet. This has given her the title the "Nature Thief".

Using the special chakra within their body, the user is able to gain access the chakra natures of anything with chakra that they touch. They can also gain natures through being attacked by an elemental technique. This technique enables the user to use any kind of technique aligned with that element, as long as they have enough chakra. The user can also stack up to three elements at once, enabling them to use a kekkei genkai or a kekkei tota if the elements are the needed kinds. Another strange attribute this ability has is the power to gain resistance to some ninjutsu of the element they absorbed.

However, this technique has great weaknesses. For one, the maximum number of natures the user can absorb is three. The user can absorb kekkei genkai, but cannot do the same to kekkei tota. Secondly, the element can only be used for about five minutes before the user is required to absorb the element again, and that element has a cool-down time of three minutes before it can. If one nature was absorbed before the others, the user will lose access to that element while the others still are usable. Creating a kekkei genkai or a kekkei tota decreases the time depending on the average time left of the elements, divided by two and three respectedly.
