Preta can absorb any ninjutsu? Really?

[fastrthnwind]

Er, he said that it couldn't absorb Mokuton or certain Doton techniques, which is totally incorrect.

Well, it can absorb mokuton that is created by chakra of course as well as doton. If they are manipulating the elements however, then it would just absorb the chakra.

Which is exactly what I said in my initial post :|

Well, the wording kinda confused me for a bit. Your all good. Ice cream?:ice:

I think people are mistaking. The sealing jutsu Preta absorb in-coming attacks. So what i mean is that, if an attack touches the user before he activates Preeta, he can't absorb it. That's why Madaras clone weren't able to absorb th last Jinton attack made by Onoki before protecting himself after with Perfect Susanoo. He said himself that cuz the clones were protected by Susanoo, he didn't had time to use Preta to absorb it. It's also the reason why Nagato couldn't absorb Amaterasu. There is a radius were the jutsu is activated and that help to absorb all ninjutsus.

Also, people believe that Preta absorb every type of ninjutsus, which is somehow true, but what they failed to realise is that Preta is not absorbing the ninjutsu itself, but it absorbs the chakra used in the ninjutsu, and that's why the jutsu vanished.

So for people saying that Preta could absorb things like Mokuton, or Madaras meteor, or even doton techniques, it's wrong, cuz eventhough it's a ninjutsu, it creates solid material in a large scale, so Preta would have difficulties to absorb the chakra in the technique. And at that time, the user will receive the damage of the solid/physical technique

That's why Preta would be useless against such techniques, at least it's what i think

Ok, to counter.

I'll get to jinton later, I have half an idea formulated about that.

As for him not being able to absorb Amaterasu, he SHOULD be able to. The reason I'm guessing he didn't is 1. He wasn't expecting to be attacked by Itachi, and 2. At that point, Shinra Tensei was faster (the absorbtion takes time after all). So I stand by the idea that Amaterasu can be absorbed.

For techniques that are physical, I am torn. On one hand, there is logic saying it shouldn't be possible, but on the other, Preta Path completely absorbed a massive stream of boiling frog oil. The oil entirely disappeared! How do you account for that?

However, I will agree with the fact that he can't absorb the meteor, but only because the meteor wasn't made of chakra, it was drawn in using Bansho Tenin.

Also, I get the feeling that it can't absorb explosions, like once a TBB hits a target or Deidara's bombs once they explode. I think it can absorb them BEFORE they explode, but once they begin to explode, they are just a massive shockwave, not masses of chakra, so I think the explosions themselves can't be absorbed.

And about why he didn't absorb jinton, an obvious possibility was that Madara didn't have preta path activated for that attack. Or maybe he just wanted to make the efforts of the Kage's seem futile, by giving them the sense of victory right before giving them a crushing blow (perfect Susanoo). That IS a part of his character, you cannot deny. Or maybe the Jinton used is basically a giant box of empty space, and then within that space an explosion type thing (or something of the sort) that can't be absorbed (like my explanation above) takes place. The explosion thing on the inside is not created by chakra, only the box is. So maybe that type of jinton technique for that reason is un-absorbable.

So yeah. Hopefully you'll comment on this...

Edit: Didn't read your OP well, yes, I agree that Preta Path has to be activated before it can be used to absorb anything. HOWEVER, I believe he can keep it activated at all times if he has to, it would just be chakra taxing.

so that means the preta path needs to activate the jutsu
before the other guy is trying to hit you with a physical attack
and if he is not then he gets fodderised

yes i agree with this part as well
why? bcoz we have seen the moment tbb comes in contact it explodes and preta path cannot expand the jutsu to that level so that he can absorb the bomb

Not saying he can't absorb chakra in Mokuton/doton, but that the time he wants to absorb chakra in the Mokuton technique, he will receive the physical damage of the jutsu since Mokuton or doton creates physical things in the contrary of oil or water which are liquid, so no need to worry about

no no no.

the wood that comes out of mokuton is the chakra itself. the wood is the chakra. so if you are able to absorb chakra. you'll basically be absorbing the wood itself. same with doton.

this technique just rises the earth. so it can't be absorbed.

on the other hand mokuton

yamato creates wood out of nowhere. that means the wood is actually the manipulation of chakra. it is the chakra. so that technique can be absorbed. not just the chakra but the wood itself can be absorbed

 

[icedonkey]

I believe he can absorb anything MADE from chakra itself, including fires, liquids's, anything of that nature, so this would include Amaterasu.

However anything that is being manipulated by chakra he can't
for example I believe that Madara's meteor is taken from the sky using chakra,
while it could be possible to take the chakra out of the meteor, it is impossible to absorb the meteor itself.

Preta Path > Mokuton. Just saying. It can't absorb the meteor though because I believe that's just Madara using Deva Path's power to pull one down.
