Eight Gates Released Formation constraints?

[Pecnut]

Just wondering what are the time, Chakra, life constraints upon opening all Eight Gates? So how long would someone be able to maintain Eight Gates Released Formation for upon releasing it?

Seems like the only reason you would ever release the Eighth Gate is to use Night Moth. You're losing all your chakra either way (you've released every chakra gate; there's no way to stop all your chakra from being gone). So, the duration of Night Moth's expulsion of chakra.

I doubt there's a true chakra constraint. The description of the Gates is releasing the tenketsu that limit chakra release in the body, which everyone has.

Sure it's one of the most powerful techniques, but opening all eight gates grants a HUGE power and speed bonus to the user alone so I disagree that a Shinobi would open all eight gates purely to use Night Moth

Imagine,

- Hashirama
- A
- Others with high chakra reserves

Going into 8th gate, I'm sure they can do a lot more than what Gai did... + They can maintain it for longer time.

Does that mean that Kabuto could maintain eight gates formation for eternity upon releasing?

Only Hamura or Kaguya could because they have Six Paths Senjutsu like Naruto, huge amounts of life force, and it requires controlling the chakra points which they are able to do at the highest level.
