With their rejuvenated bodies acting as an anchor, the individual souls are then able to leave even the crossroad between life and the afterlife, returning back to their physical vessels. The technique targets all the individuals killed, even those not necessarily killed by the user. This technique seemingly requires a massive amount of chakra, as [[Konan]] feared the worst for [[Nagato]] when he used it after having previously expended so much chakra. Nagato also became severely weakened, his hair became increasingly thinner and greyer as he performed the technique. == Influences == As with many of the Rinnegan's techniques, it is influenced by Buddhist terminology. {{translation|''Gedō''|外道|lit. "Outer Path"}}, derived from the Sanskrit ''[[Wikipedia:Tirthika|Tīrthika]]'', refers to any doctrine which "treads the outer path" to enlightenment. This is opposed to the teachings of orthodox Buddhism, the {{translation|''Naidō''|内道|lit meaning=Inner Path}}, and is thus considered misguided and heretical. == Trivia == * [[Madara Uchiha]] — and [[Obito]] under the guise of Madara — noted that this technique was supposed to be used to revive him.<ref>''Naruto'' chapter 453, page 18</ref><ref>''Naruto'' chapter 601, page 11</ref> Madara would eventually be [[Summoning: Impure World Reincarnation|reincarnated]] anyway, and expressed surprise and disappointment that his return didn't go as planned, as only a living body can become a [[jinchūriki]], which he wanted to do with the [[Ten-Tails]].<ref>''Naruto'', chapter 559, page 2</ref><ref name="c614">''Naruto'' chapter 614, page 5</ref> * Because Madara has been reincarnated and not revived, he needs Obito to perform this technique so that he can become the Ten-Tails' jinchūriki. Obito has noted that this would result in his own death, however.<ref name="c614"/> * When written as 輪廻転生, Rinne Tensei means "the circle of transmigration". == References == <references/> [[es:Gedo: Arte Rinne de la Reencarnación]] Summary: Minor edit Follow this page Cancel
