Usage
Simply put, Forest Release is the result of infusing Wood Release with Yang Release. Granting the user all traits of Wood Release as a benefit, only to be amplified and given a new physical form thanks to the addition of Yang Release. This addition exponentially increases the versatility of the wood seeing as they are now truly given their own life, no longer bound to the user's chakra like other false creations. What truly differentiates Wood Release and Forest Release is the ability to control the vitality of the techniques, with this ability, users able to cause the most basic wooden constructs to change its physical form into something nearly as complex as a dungeon filled with hundreds of mazes is one of the many unique abilities granted by Forest Release that seems preposterous and completely perplexing to Wood Release wielders.

The forest is their territory, all who wishes to fight someone who wields the Forest Release in their own territory is either extremely brave or awfully arrogant.
