Meiton: Yami akiraka ni | Dark Release: Darkness Revealed
Type: Offensive/Defensive/Supplementary
Rank: S
Range: Short
Chakra: 40 (+10 each turn)
Damage: 80
Description: A technique sort by near all masters of Dark Release. It was seen as one of the greater Dark release techniques & was most powerful in terms of defence compared to other Dark jutsu. The user is required to absorb three A Rank energy based using the "(Meiton: Kyūketsukō) - Dark Release: Inhaling Maw" technique or any related technique that absorbs strengths & weaknesses apply in regards to the absorption ability. The user is unable to perform any Dark release jutsu that require the usage of Inhaling Maw or related beforehand, otherwise they will have to absorb the chakra once more. After having successfully performed the requirements needed, the user is able to release the chakra through the diamond marking on their hand. The chakra begins to crawl across the user's arm, completely covering it while shortly after the rest of the body. The user is coated in a thick blanket of purple Dark chakra with hints of black hue, almost as if merged with the user's skin. The user's eyes become pure white. The abilities of the technique are not fully known, yet three have been revealed & shown to prove very useful for any situation(Offensive, Defensive & Supplementary).
Offensive | The offensive capabilities of this technique are primarily simple forms. The user is able to create jet black structures across their body, varying from simply weaponry such as swords, axes & whips etc, each of them equal to B Rank dark release techniques. The user is able to perform all dark release jutsu of A rank & below without the need of "Inhaling Maw" by sacrificing a turn of this technique, thereby using the dark chakra already held by the technique as a source. During close combat the user is slightly more resistant to melee attacks due to the surrounding dark chakra.
Defensive | The most notable part of the technique. The user being covered entirely of Dark chakra, is able to absorb any technique composed of Wind, Fire, Lightning & Raw Chakra, without the need of performing the "Inhaling Maw" technique, instead posting this as reference & using one of three moves allowed each turn. The opposing jutsu would simply pass into the user, being absorbed by this technique. If a technique of S Rank or Forbidden (Forbidden dependable on the jutsu itself) is absorbed then the user has the choice of either using the contained chakra to perform a dark jutsu or to add an additional turn to this technique. The user is still able to absorb chakra from Water release jutsu of C rank or below, but has no other effect towards the water source.
Supplementary | Using this part of the technique allows the user to empower Dark jutsu. By sacrificing a turn of this technique the user is able to strengthen Dark related techniques by one rank, S rank simply gaining extra damage (+20 Damage). Another use of this ability allows the user to siphon chakra form the opponent when they are in contact with them. Each time the user comes in contact with their opponent, they passively absorb 50 chakra, adding to their own supply.
None of the above are passive techniques other than the ability to absorb chakra on contact & to the least require the user to reference which ever they use as one move out of their three. Being able to use Lightning & Fire jutsu, the colour of the jutsus performed gains a dark purple hue, this of course is purely cosmetic. While in this form the user is able to perform Dark, Lightning & Fire jutsu of all ranks, & Ninjutsu of A rank & below. The user is left unable to perform Earth, Water or Wind jutsu while this technique is active. On activation of this technique, due to the dark release chakra spreading not just outside of the body, but covering a majority of the chakra network (a reason to why the user is only able to use certain elements), it is able to release the user from genjutsu of S Rank & below.

(Fujitsuboātsu : Thoracica no bodi) - Barnacle Arts : Body of the Thoracica
Type: Offensive/Defensive
Rank: C - A
Range: Short - Long
Chakra Cost: 15 - 30
Damage Points: 30 - 60 (60)
Description:
All "Thoracica" Type Barnacles can use this, manipulating their shells so that the essentially grow and they become spiked like many needles are protruding from them and this just makes their body more dangerous so they cannot be touched by enemy hands. They can then manipulate to form ninja tools, weapons or other kinds of constructs, though depending on the size of the Barnacle Summoning using this they can only make a certain amount of things.
C-Rank : Can be used by Single Thoracica Barnacles or above and can create small tools like Kunai and Shuriken can be made in singles, Senbon can only be made in threes - since these shells can only be manipulated to an extent, once the form is taken it cannot be changed unless this technique is used again to manipulate it
B-Rank : Can be used by Small Groups of Thoracica Barnacles or above and can create a barrage of Kunai or Shuriken, a wave of Senbon. They can create weapons as big as Spears or even shields all the barnacles would contribute by stemming off their shells to create a large shield. They can create singular pieces of armour like gauntlets, chestplates or masks - can only create one of these.
A-Rank : Can be used by a Community of Barnacles like "Oregon" or above and can fire ordinary-sized swords or large shuriken, create and wield Large weapons like Battleaxes, giant swords, even walls or a group of spikes from the earth (Contact with the earth must be made). The Communities can create full sets of armour.
The barnacle usually creates these tools for the user but they can launch them towards enemies at short range as well if need be. The Launched Shell Tool can stand up to elements however the shells are weak to lightning and strong to water. Like "Gadget Barnacle" the user can use this technique but only by clicking his fingers to summon a weapon within the limits of the chosen rank, the user cannot manipulate the shell though
- Can only be used by Thoracica Type Barnacles and not by barnacles without shell.
- C-Rank only has Short Range, B-Rank is Limited to Mid and A-Rank Long.
- User can only use the A-Rank version four times
- Must have signed Barnacle Summon Contract
