Lightning Release: Lightning Rod

This technique has two requirements: the user must have the lightning chakra affinity and there must be some sort of cloud cover above the user. After forming the necessary hand seals, the user throws his or her hands up toward the sky. While doing this, the user's chakra begins to visibly cover the user with lightning-affinity chakra. As the chakra covers the user, it sends off a strong invisible pulse of negatively charged electrons to the clouds above, causing lightning to form and strike the user. As the lightning strikes the user below, the lightning-affinity chakra insulates the user from any extensive harm while absorbing the lightning into the body, supercharging the user. If anyone were in the immediate area when the user summoned the lightning bolt, he or she would be thrown backward from the raw energy of the bolt.

Being that the user is supercharged with raw electricity, he or she is quicker and blows are more powerful than before, being imbued with electrical energy. The user does is not required to form hand seals for lightning-based techniques while being supercharged because there is enough raw energy surging through the user to bypass such things. The user is also encased in a thin electrical shield that gives off a surge of energy if touched by something. Even water techniques fizzle and disperse when touching the user under this technique unless buried under a lake of water.

The drawback of this technique is that while the user is granted near-limitless electrical energy for a short period of time, once this technique is ended, the user is fatigued and weakened greatly as nearly all of the chakra is spent mixed with the raw lightning. This technique is not fatal itself, but it is considered a last resort move because it burns through so much energy so quickly. Anyone performing this move isn't going to function properly afterward as there would be little chakra to do much save for breathing.
