Art of the Elders: Chi Gathering

This is a special technique of the Sacred Elder Group, a group of ten shinobi with two from each of the original Five Great Nations. Otoshi Nagare, a member of this group, has access to this technique. [[Daigaru Meitochi has learned it from this man as well.

After weaving the needed hand seals, the user sits down or stands still. Instantly, a white circular seal forms underneath them and a white aura forms around their body. This seal absorbs oxygen and nurtients from the air and allows them to pass into the body through the skin, giving the user instant energy. This technique can be used to increase the stamina of a person momentarily and rejuvenate them during a hard battle.

However, the user only gathers physical energy and not chakra. That being said, the user can only increase and regain some stamina. Chakra will not be regained through this technique. Also, this technique does not heal wounds, so any wounds inflicted will remain as such until healed. However, this technique can increase pain tolerance and erase some fatigue.
