Description: A technique derived from the "Leech All Creation Technique" and partly inspired by the infamous "Earth Spear Technique" in use. The user will focus chakra throughout their entire body. The chakra has the unique property of assimilation, granting it the ability to assimilate a material upon contact and take on its traits. Unlike the technique from which it is derived from however, it does not convert the user into that material, rather specifically converts their skin, becoming slightly thicker as a result. The converted skin while slightly differing based on the material mimicking, for the most part provides a quick and durable defense to physical based attacks and heat based techniques of the same rank without any harm to the user. Yet with no difference in weight or bulkiness and therefore does not hamper the users movements in anyway. Also similar to its derived technique it constantly reforms as long as the user has physical contact with the material. Requiring the opponent to neutralize it with a technique of equal rank to completely stop the reformation rather then end it for a moment. Something to note is the technique despite being a defensive one, logically allows a minor enhancement to the offensive capabilities of the user. Capable of being used in a manner similar to earth spear, such as using ones hand to pierce the opponent. An additional perk of the technique is despite being a ninjutsu the mechanics of the technique are capable of being produced through earth release if the user is skilled enough in the element. Therefore earth specialists (primary or secondary) will be able to use this as an earth technique as well as being capable of using the technique as an S-rank once per battle (at the chakra cost of an S-rank), following earth's strength's and weaknesses of course.
