*Mokuton (Wood Release): An advanced nature kekkei genkai that combines earth and water-based chakra natures to create wood or complete trees. This ability can also be used to grow other aspects of trees, such as seeds or flowers. Wood Release techniques can be produced from anywhere, including the user's body, as the user's chakra is converted into a source of life.
**Mokuton Bushin no Jutsu (Wood Clone Technique): The user creates a clone of themselves made out of wood. The clone more durable than the regular shadow clones, and it can merge with plants and trees. It also can travel far distances from the user and can communicate with the original.
**Mokuton: Kajukai Kōrin (Advent of a World of Flowering Trees): The user creates a dense forest of flowering trees over a significantly larger area (calculated to be over a kilometer). The pollen produced by these flowers is then released into the atmosphere and, when inhaled, renders any afflicted target unconscious.
**Mokuton Hijutsu: Jukai Kōtan (Secret Jutsu: Nativity of a World of Trees): The user forces trees to grow on any surface, creating a dense forest anywhere they choose. A small plant can grow into a forest in an instant. By generating chakra, the user maneuvers it as they see fit for attack and defense; furthermore, this technique even allows them to capture the enemy simultaneously. With their tremendous life force, the trees can pierce through earthen walls and extend their branches at their prey instantly.
**Mokuton: Mokuryū no Jutsu (Wood Release: Wood-Dragon Technique): The user creates a gigantic dragon with a tengu-like face, can easily restrain targets as strong as BM Naruto's full Biju Mode and survive being struck by Madara Uchiha's Susano'o Swords, and is used to drain the chakra from a target. The only counters are to destroy the head of the dragon.
**Mokuton: Mokujin no Jutsu (Wood Release: Wood Human Technique): The user creates a gigantic wood statue to combat a similar-sized opponent such as Madara's Final Susanoo or the Biju. It is durable and fast enough to catch a Bijudama shot from Kurama and survive its explosion with the Mokuton: Hōbi no Jutsu.
**Mokuton: Hōbi no Jutsu (Wood Release: Wood Expulsion Technique): The user creates a gigantic shield of wood with the face of Avalokiteśvara, which is strong enough to block Kurama's standard Bijudama blast.
**Mokuton: Hotei no Jutsu (Wood Release: Laughing Buddha Technique): The user creates several gigantic hands in an attempt to restrain a target.
*Senpō: Mokuton (Sage Art: Wood Release): When the user balances with their chakra reserves with Natural Energy, they create a new chakra called Sage Chakra. When this happens, their ninjutsu, taijutsu, and genjutsu all gain a tremendous leap. Moreover, the user also gains increased speed, strength, and durability.
**Senpō: Mokuton: Shin Sūsenju (Sage Art: Wood Release: True Several Thousand Hands): The user creates a colossal statue of a praying Senju Kannon or Avalokiteśvara, armed with several rows of gigantic arms on its back. The size of the figure dwarfs even Kurama and the surrounding mountains.
**Chōjō Kebutsu (Top Transformed Buddha): The user unleashes their Shin Susenju at the target in a barrage of gigantic punches.
**Senpō: Myōjinmon (Sage Art: Gate of the Great God): The user creates several gigantic Torii which drop down on the target with tremendous force, pinning them to the ground. It's strong enough to restrain even the Juubi in its Muscular form.
*Doton (Earth Release): One of the basic elemental nature transformation techniques and allow the user to manipulate the surrounding earth for offensive and defensive purposes or create it; be it dirt, mud, or rock.
*Suiton (Water Release): One of the basic elemental nature transformation techniques that allow the user to manipulate pre-existing water, or create their own, by turning their chakra into water. It takes much more skill to make the water than to control what is already available and expel it from their mouths. One of the most versatile of the five essential chakra natures, Water Release techniques, can change shape and state.
*Kokuangyo no Jutsu (Bringer-of-Darkness Technique): This technique exerts a hallucinatory effect upon the eyesight, effectively blinding the opponent. Although it negates sight, it does not stop the other senses.
