Nagato made use of chakra receivers to manipulate his [[Six Paths of Pain]] by embedding several into each of the bodies and transmitting his chakra to them via the rods which had been embedded into his own body by the Demonic Statue of the Outer Path when he [[Summoning: Demonic Statue of the Outer Path|summoned]] it during his battle with [[Hanzō of the Salamander]].<ref name="chapt447"/> Nagato also used the rods as weapons which, when used to pierce the enemy, disrupted their chakra flow by injecting them with his own chakra.<ref>''Naruto'' chapter 420, pages 8-9</ref> Through this means he also had the ability to take control of a living person while within a certain range of them.<ref name="chapt444">''Naruto'' chapter 444, pages 3-4</ref> The black rods were originally used by Madara Uchiha, who [[Will Materialisation|imbued his will]] into several, one of which he left protruding from the navel of Hashirama's living clone.<ref name="chapt606"/> During the process of saving Obito Uchiha's life, Madara inserted some of these rods into his artificial body,<ref>''Naruto'' chapter 605, page 6</ref> which he later used in an attempt to control Obito through the use of his chakra, resulting in the right half of Obito's body being covered in black matter.<ref name="chpt636p146">''Naruto'' chapter 636, pages 14-16</ref><ref>''Naruto'' chapter 637, page 1</ref> Obito himself also demonstrated a unique use of these chakra receivers in the form of giant stakes.<ref name="chapt598"/>

=== Chakra Receiver Rods ===
 
[[File:Nagato Chakra.jpg|thumb|left|The rods transmitting chakra.]]
 
Nagato, upon summoning the Demonic Statue of the Outer Path during his confrontation with Hanzō, was pierced by several of these rods, all of which originated from the Demonic Statue's navel.<ref name="chapt447"/> The receivers implanted into Nagato's back allowed him to transfer his chakra to the statue and in doing so, manipulate it.<ref name="chapt447"/> Nagato later incorporated the receivers into his Six Paths of Pain technique by implanting them into a number of corpses at various points along their body, much like piercings. Doing so allowed him to transmit his chakra into the bodies and control them remotely as if they were his own, while bestowing each with certain abilities that Nagato wielded thanks to his Rinnegan. The many animals summoned through the [[Animal Path]] technique also had a number of these body piercings, suggesting that Nagato controlled them in a similar manner.<ref>''Naruto'' chapter 375, pages 8-12</ref>
 
   
 
[[File:Chakra Receiver stakes.png|thumb|The stakes created by Obito being used to generate chakra chains.]]
During the course of the [[Fourth Shinobi World War]], Obito utilised these same rods to control his [[Six Paths of Pain#Obito's Paths|own Six Paths of Pain]], comprised entirely from [[Summoning: Impure World Reincarnation|reincarnated]] [[jinchūriki]], using only one receiver per body.<ref>''Naruto'' chapter 565, pages 10-11</ref> The rods also served to temporarily bind the [[tailed beast]]s to their former jinchūriki, while allowing him to control the beasts themselves as well as quickly reseal them within the Demonic Statue through the use of [[Demonic Statue Chains|chakra chains]].<ref>''Naruto'' chapter 569, pages 2-7</ref>
 
  +
Aside from receiving chakra, the rods can also be used to manifest [[Demonic Statue Chains|chakra chains]] to restrain anyone who touches them with a greater binding power.<ref>Chapter 569, page 10</ref> Obito demonstrated a unique variation of the chakra receivers in the form of giant stakes, which he launched by [[Kamui|forcefully ejecting]] them from [[Kamui's Dimension|another dimension]] with enough force to pierce the flesh of tailed beasts.<ref>Chapter 598, pages 9-10</ref> After becoming the [[Ten-Tails]]' jinchūriki, Obito seemingly converted one of his Truth-Seeking Balls into six chakra receivers in the process of using the [[Six Red Yang Formation]].<ref>Chapter 643, page 9</ref>
 
=== Chakra Disruption Blade ===
 
[[File:Chakra Disruption Blades.png|thumb|The rod being used offensively.]]
 
These chakra disruption blades are the bladed versions of the chakra receivers. Nagato was able to extend the blades from any of his Six Paths' arms as well as detach them when the use of several was required,<ref>''Naruto'' chapter 442, pages 7-8</ref> or to throw them as projectiles.<ref>''Naruto: Shippūden'' episode 167</ref> These blades disrupt the chakra of anyone they pierce, disorienting their movements and causing a vision of the Rinnegan to appear in their mind.<ref>''Naruto'' chapter 420, page 9</ref><ref>''Naruto'' chapter 435, page 15</ref> These blades are very sharp, as they were able to pierce the skin of [[Sage Mode]] users whose bodies were noted to be hardened to a greater degree by [[natural energy]].<ref name="chapt381"/>
 
 
[[File:Disruption Blade Effect.png|thumb|left|The effect of being stabbed with the blade.]]
 
Though the blades are made from durable material, they can be broken with enough force.<ref>''Naruto'' chapter 433, page 7</ref> However, due to being made of the same material as the chakra receivers, they are durable enough to wear down metal blades such as scalpels without any trouble.<ref name="chapt484"/> When launched from Obito's body by Madara, the blades were strong enough to deflect [[Susanoo Bow|Susanoo arrows]] made up of [[Blaze Release: Susanoo Kagutsuchi|black flames]].<ref>''Naruto'' chapter 637, page 8</ref> Like the [[Truth-Seeking Ball]], as long as they're embedded a [[Summoning: Impure World Reincarnation|reincarnated]] shinobi is unable to regenerate and are rendered immobile until it is removed.
 
 
Nagato, due to being immobile, fired his chakra disruption blades from his mechanical seat, which then allowed him to control the victim like one of the Six Paths due to the close proximity between them. Naruto was able to resist Nagato's influence through a combination of Sage Mode and [[Kurama]]'s chakra.<ref name="chapt444"/>
 
 
=== Chakra Receiver Stakes ===
 
[[File:Chakra Receiver stakes.png|thumb|The stakes created by Obito.]]
 
These stakes greatly differ in size and design. However, not unlike the other variations, the user is capable of channelling their chakra through them. During the Fourth Shinobi World War, Obito employed these against Naruto and [[Killer B]] by [[Kamui|forcefully ejecting]] them from [[Kamui's Dimension|another dimension]]. When applied with enough force, they can pierce the flesh of [[Tailed Beast Mode|fully transformed]] tailed beasts. Also like the simpler chakra receiver, the user can channel their chakra into the stakes to manifest [[Demonic Statue Chains|chakra chains]], with which they are capable of binding the powers of a tailed beast.<ref name="chapt598"/>

Revision as of 11:21, 15 July 2015

This technique creates multi-purpose black rods capable of receiving the user's chakra across vast distances.

Overview

File:Nagato Chakra.jpg

Nagato transmitting chakra to other receivers.

The user can generate these receivers from their body,[1] and their size and shape can be altered to fit the situation.[2] According to Shizune, they act as high-frequency chakra demodulators, which become appreciably warm to the touch while receiving chakra.[3] To make best use of the receivers, the user must transmit their chakra from the closest and highest point possible.[4] The user can continuously change the frequency of the transmitted chakra signals to prevent being detected.[5] As they are connected to their creator's chakra, the rods will disintegrate in the same manner as the Truth-Seeking Balls if their creator is killed or incapacitated.[6]

Usage

File:Chakra Disruption Blades.png

A black chakra receiver being employed offensively.

Nagato was able to remotely control his Six Paths of Pain by implanting various receivers fashioned into piercings into their bodies. Subsequently, each Pain was able to produce additional receivers for offensive use.[7] The many animals Nagato summoned through the Animal Path also had a number of these body piercings, suggesting that he may have controlled them in a similar manner. Obito later created his own Six Paths of Pain comprised entirely of reincarnated former jinchūriki, using only one receiver per body.[8] The receivers also served to temporarily bind the chakra of the tailed beasts sealed inside the Demonic Statue of the Outer Path to their former hosts, effectively making them jinchūriki once more.[9]

Disruption Blade Effect

The effects of being stabbed by a receiver.

The receivers are also capable of disrupting a living individual's chakra by injecting them with the user's own chakra, hindering their movement and causing a vision of the Rinnegan to appear in their mind.[2] By piercing the target's tenketsu with the rods, the user can entirely prevent them from moulding additional chakra.[10] However, using the receivers in this manner can potentially backfire, as an individual with sensing capabilities can determine the user's location when pierced with the rods.[11] Due to being immobile, Nagato fired bladed chakra receivers from his mechanical walker, which he claimed allowed him to control the victim due to their close proximity to him, though Naruto Uzumaki was able to resist his control through a combination of Sage Mode and the Nine-Tails' chakra.[12] Those who possess the Rinnegan appear to be entirely immune to the receivers' effects.[13]

Chakra Receiver stakes

The stakes created by Obito being used to generate chakra chains.

Aside from receiving chakra, the rods can also be used to manifest chakra chains to restrain anyone who touches them with a greater binding power.[14] Obito demonstrated a unique variation of the chakra receivers in the form of giant stakes, which he launched by forcefully ejecting them from another dimension with enough force to pierce the flesh of tailed beasts.[15] After becoming the Ten-Tails' jinchūriki, Obito seemingly converted one of his Truth-Seeking Balls into six chakra receivers in the process of using the Six Red Yang Formation.[16]

Other Media

In Naruto Shippūden: Shinobi Rumble, Pain has a technique called "Black Needle Stab" (黒針突, Kokushintō), in which he simply dashes at the opponent and stabs them with the blade variant, causing their controls to become temporarily reversed; an enhanced "Full Throttle" version is also available, called "Black Needle Stab: Destructive Flash" (黒針突・滅閃, Kokushintō: Metsusen). As no specific name was given for these weapons in the manga, this may imply that they are officially known as "Black Needles" (黒針, Kokushin).

Trivia

  • Although the fourth databook describes the black receivers as a trademark of the Rinnegan,[17] there have been several instances in which they have been produced through irregular means without usage of the dōjutsu:
    • Receivers emerged from Obito's artificial right half when he first awakened the Mangekyō Sharingan and Wood Release, though they served no noticeable purpose.[18]
    • The elderly Madara produced receivers from his non-sentient clone of Hashirama Senju while connected to it and the Demonic Statue. He stated that said rods, like Black Zetsu, were a manifestation of his will in physical form, and told Obito to use them with the Six Paths Technique.[19]
    • At times, black receivers have protruded from the Demonic Statue's midsection.[20] In one instance, these rods pierced Nagato's back after he summoned the statue, draining his life force while allowing him to control it.[21][22]
    • Madara attempted to control Obito by causing black rods to emerge from his right half as he was covered in a black substance,[23] allowing Madara to manipulate Obito's actions using his chakra.[24] These rods emerged from Obito's right half one final time when Black Zetsu first attached to his body and forced him to revive Madara.[25]
  • It was shown that the receivers inserted in the reincarnated jinchūriki moved in position when they entered Tailed Beast Mode. In the case of Rōshi transforming into Son Gokū, the receiver moved from the jinchūriki's chest up to the tailed beast's neck.[26]
