The user creates a solid wall of earth as a form of defence. [[Chakra]] is either converted to earth within the body and then spat out to form the wall or the user can manipulate pre-existing earth to form the wall. The earth then instantly rises up and takes form. The barrier itself is also coated with chakra, making its strength incomparable to that of a normal mud wall. Because of the earth's special characteristics, the wall is highly resistant against, for instance, fire and water. Also, for a [[Kage]]-class shinobi it is possible to create a vast volume of earth. When used by [[Kakashi]] he creates a wall composed of [[Wikipedia:Bulldog|bulldog]] sculptures.<ref>''Naruto'' chapter 420, page 8</ref><ref>''Naruto'' chapter 608, pages 1-2</ref>
