i was wondering if you're a member of the akadou clan, and you try to absorb the chakra of an elemental tech and you use a higher ranking absorption tech, do you still get the after affect? like if i tried to absorb a c-ranked fireball with a b-ranked absorption?

[addy-hime ♥]

I've thought about this before, actually. I honestly don't think even using a higher rank technique would make up for the fact that you're coming into contact with the elements. Akadou siphon chakra, so they actually are taking the chakra and not the element created, in a way. They would still end up being burned, electrified, etc.

but elements like katon and raiton are completely made up of chakra, unlike the others, which uses the natural resources, but ok. what about when you absorb someone's chakra, let's say, higher than your own. matter, let's say i am low in chakra pool, and i absorb an A-rank or higher tech, does that mean that my chakra push or chakra pool goes up higher for the thread? allowing me to do more upper rank jutsu than i naturally should be able to?

edit: and, i can only be burned and electrocuted lol, the other basic elements dont do anything effect wise. i cant touch wind. as for kekkei touta, the same thing really, i wouldnt touch magma, idk who would. and, i dont think if i touch a ice jutsu i would be frozen.

Akadou is supposed to be a rank for rank absorption sorta deal. You can't absorb something higher ranked. Chakra pool is not evaluated in the exchange at all. You never go higher than your own base chakra level. It also says this in the main technique:

Keep in mind that while Akadou can absorb chakra from anything, they can still be overwhelmed by it, as well as receive its side-effects (for example, you can't put your hands to a Raiton shield-type jutsu and expect to absorb anything without getting shocked.)

You wouldn't be able to absorb a higher-ranked wind technique at all.

no, i was saying if i used a higher rank absorption tech on a lower ranking elemental jutsu, could i still be affected by it. but, addy gave me my answer. and, since you can never go higher than your base stat, i would be stuck at C rank at most, and even if i knew higher ranks of the absorption tech, i wouldnt be able to use them, even if they dont take chakra from me. is that what you're saying?

i couldn't absorb wind at all, it's intangible.

You could use the higher-ranked variants, you just lose out on any chakra in the absorption process that is beyond your base. Akadou doesn't discretely say this yet, but it will be added soon. We're going over Akadou as we speak.

bet i enforced the thoughts on akadou, i shouldn't have said shit lol, ok, thanks.

We've been talking about Akadou for a while, actually.
