Chakra Absorption Techniques

allow the user to absorb the chakra of another individual - usually an opponent's - and utilise it as if it were their own. Those who have had their chakra absorbed have reduced options in combat due to the lost chakra, and if enough chakra is taken they may be too weak to move.Naruto chapter 508, page 2 Conversely, those who have absorbed the chakra have expanded combat options due to the increased chakra reserves and their physical condition may improve as a result.Naruto chapter 471, pages 14-15 However, users must be able to process the chakra they absorb; if they absorb senjutsu-chakra but do not have the required training in senjutsu, they will turn to stone.Naruto chapter 435, pages 2-5
When absorbing another's chakra, most ninja require some medium through which to do so, whether it be a jutsu (as in several Wood Release techniques), a weapon (notably Samehada and the anime's Infinite Armour), or some other resource (as in the Aburame clan's kikaichū). Others are able to absorb chakra simply by making physical contact with a target. Known individuals that can do so are: Yoroi Akadō,Naruto chapter 67, page 14 Jirōbō,Naruto chapter 186, page 19 Kisame Hoshigaki,Naruto chapter 506, page 5 White Zetsu,Naruto Shippūden episode 207 Black Zetsu,Naruto chapter 681, page 8 Madara Uchiha,Naruto chapter 657, page 6 Obito Uchiha,Naruto chapter 666, page 1 Fūka,Naruto Shippūden episode 61 and the Ultimate Summoning Beast.Naruto: Shippūden episode 227 
== Trivia ==
* In reference to Yoroi's use of the ability, Orochimaru describes it as "unholy", but never goes into detail.
* In Naruto Shippūden 3D: The New Era, the Rinha clan had a kekkei genkai allowing them to absorb chakra and then imbue a puppet with the chakra, even giving it the ability to use other kekkei genkai.
* Orochimaru is shown absorbing his own chakra from Kabuto Yakushi through physical contact,Naruto chapter 593, pages 15, 17 but it's unclear if he can absorb any target's chakra if he so chooses.
