It is one of the Three Great Dōjutsu (三大瞳術, San Daidōjutsu Literally meaning "Three Great Eye Techniques"), along with the Sharingan and the Rinnegan. Main article: ByakuganThe Byakugan (白眼 Literally meaning "White Eye", Meaning ( Viz) "All Seeing White Eye") is the dōjutsu kekkei genkai of the Hyūga clan. The user is also able to control the range and level of the vapour's acidity. īoil Release (沸遁, Futton Viz "Vapour Style") is one of the two advanced nature kekkei genkai of Mei Terumī and is made up of techniques that combine fire and water-based chakra to create a powerful corrosive vapour capable of melting anything. C states that Sasuke manipulates the flames with his right Mangekyō Sharingan whereas he casts Amaterasu with his left. Sasuke Uchiha uses this technique when manipulating the unquenchable black flames of Amaterasu. There is an advanced variant of kekkei genkai known as kekkei tōta, which is a combination of three different nature transformations.īlaze Release (炎遁, Enton Viz "Inferno Style") is an advanced chakra nature. Yet other kekkei genkai seem to appear in individuals with no known relation, such as the Lava Release, which has appeared in ninja from Kirigakure, Iwagakure, and Kumogakure, while Magnet Release, which has appeared in ninja from both Kumogakure and Sunagakure. Īlthough kekkei genkai are usually genetically shared within a specific clan, sometimes it is unique to one person alone, and that even family relatives do not share it, such as the Wood Release and Shikotsumyaku. However, Yamato's skill in using it is not nearly as powerful as the originator: Hashirama Senju, and the risk of such process was that Yamato was the only one of the sixty test subjects to survive. Chakra elements can also be passed down to people outside of the clan, such as Yamato being subjected to DNA re-modification by Orochimaruwho wanted to acquire the Wood Release kekkei genkai. Use of these organs requires much more chakra than someone born with the kekkei genkai. Dōjutsu, or other kekkei genkai isolated to a single organ, can be transplanted into the body of another, as was done with transferring Obito's Sharingan to Kakashi. However, kekkei genkai can be given to others. Kekkei genkai and their related techniques cannot be taught to or copied by others.

Other kekkei genkai include mixing one type of elemental chakra with another, creating a new one unique to the users, which is usually impossible for normal ninja, or other bodily manipulations that are usually unachievable by normal standards. Kekkei genkai abilities that work via the user's eye are called dōjutsu. It's possible for a ninja to have more than one of these abilities. Kekkei genkai (血継限界 Literally meaning "a technique limited to inheritance by blood" or "Bloodline Limit") are abilities passed down genetically within specific clans.
