The Yang Release (陽遁, Yōton) techniques, based on the physical energy that governs vitality, can be used to breathe life into form.[1] During the Nine-Tailed Demon Fox's attack on Konoha, Minato Namikaze used the Eight Trigrams Sealing Style to seal the Yang half of the beast's chakra, within Naruto Uzumaki.[2] Whenever Naruto is in Nine-Tails Chakra Mode, Wood Release techniques will react to the Yang chakra's life-giving properties and mature into full-grown trees within a matter of seconds, either by contact or close range.[3] This was also shown to have the same effect on White Zetsu Army clones, whose genetic make-up is similar to that of plants.[4]
When combined with Yin Release, it allows the use of Yin–Yang Release.[1]
Trivia
