Kimimaro using his kekkei genkai.





List of Kekkei Genkai

Blaze Release

Nature Icon Blaze

Main article: Blaze Release Blaze Release (炎遁, Enton; Viz "Inferno Style") is an advanced chakra nature kekkei genkai of the Uchiha clan, that allows them manipulate black flames. Sasuke Uchiha uses this technique when manipulating the unquenchable black flames of Amaterasu, fashioning them into various weapons and defences.[3] After entering its final form, Susanoo gained an orb of black flames, which serves as an alternate source of flames to manipulate with this nature.[4][5]


Boil Release

Nature Icon Boil

Main article: Boil Release

Boil 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 dissolving anything. The user is also able to control the range and level of the vapour's acidity. Not only is it dangerous to be near, but as being gaseous, it can cover a considerable range shortly, and go through small spaces. It also stays in the air, so it can potentially deal continuous damage if the enemy is trapped or knocked back into its range.



Main article: Byakugan The Byakugan (白眼; Literally meaning "White Eye", Meaning (Viz) "All Seeing White Eye") is the dōjutsu kekkei genkai of the Hyūga clan. 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.[7] Those who inherit the blood of this clan have almost featureless, white eyes and when the Byakugan is activated, the user's pupils become more distinct, and the veins near their temples bulge. It also appears that unlike the other two great dōjutsu, all members of the clan possess, and can use this kekkei genkai from birth, as opposed to needing to awaken or else, not inheriting it at all.The primary ability of the Byakugan gives the user a near 360º field of vision, except for one blind spot at the back of the neck above the first thoracic vertebra.[8] Upon activation of the dōjutsu, the wielder is granted an automatic 50 metre field of vision around themselves which can then be extended at their discretion.[9][10]

The second ability is being able to see through solid objects, as well as telescopic sight. It can also see through most barriers, and other things such as smokescreens,[11] differentiate between non-corporeal clones and see through techniques that would otherwise hide an opponent from normal sight.[12] The distance and the degree of telescopic sight varies from person to person, and can be improved through training. In Part I, Neji Hyūga was able to see an area of 50 metres,[9][10] but he later increases his visual range to at least 800 metres,[13] while Hinata Hyūga's range in Part II stretches at least as far as 10 km.[14] However, the Byakugan cannot see through certain barriers, such as the Four Black Fogs Formation used by the Sound Four.[15] The dōjutsu also has the ability to follow high-speed movement.[16][17][18]

Jūgo's Clan's Kekkei Genkai

Main article: Jūgo's Clan's Kekkei Genkai

Members of Jūgo's clan have unique bodies, which allows them to passively absorb natural energy. This allows them to transform parts of their bodies for several purposes. However, due to the constant absorption, they sporadically feel sudden, uncontrollable urges to kill, causing them to go on a rage. While varied in purpose and function, the body transformations occasioned by this ability are similar looking in that a pattern covers the affected area as the transformation occurs, the skin on the affected area turns brown, and if the transformation occurs in the eyes, their sclerae turns dark as well.

Main article: Rinha Clan's Kekkei Genkai




Main article: Rinnegan

The Rinnegan (輪廻眼; Literally meaning "Saṃsāra Eye") is reputed as the most exalted eyes amongst the Three Great Dōjutsu (三大瞳術, San Daidōjutsu; Literally meaning "Three Great Eye Techniques").[22] It is characterised by its ripple-like pattern, which spreads over the eyeballs, with light purple sclerae and a light dark purple irides.It was admired as being able to bring forth all ninjutsu.[23] It was said that in times when the world is in disorder, a person is sent down from the heavens to become either a "God of Creation", who will calm the world, or a "Destroyer", who will reduce everything to nothingness.[24] The Rinnegan allows the user to use the Six Paths Technique.[25]

Ryūzetsu's Kekkei Genkai

Main article: Ryūzetsu's Kekkei Genkai

This unnamed kekkei genkai apparently allows the user to perform Reincarnation Ninjutsu as it allowed Ryūzetsu to perform the Dragon Life Reincarnation technique. It was seen only in Naruto 5: Blood Prison and Ryūzetsu was the only known user. Other details, such as whether it was common or rare and whether any other technique could be performed using it, are unknown.

Scorch Release

Nature Icon Scorch

Main article: Scorch Release

Scorch Release (灼遁, Shakuton; Viz "Scorch Style") is an advanced chakra nature kekkei genkai. This nature creates chakra that is capable of heating up an enemy to the point where all the liquid inside their body evaporates, killing the victim and leaving them a desiccated corpse.


Sharingan Triple

Main article: Sharingan

The Sharingan (写輪眼; Literally meaning "Copy Wheel Eye", Meaning (Viz) "Mirror Wheel Eye") is a dōjutsu kekkei genkai, which appears in some members of the Uchiha clan.[26] It is one of the Three Great Dōjutsu (三大瞳術, San Daidōjutsu; Literally meaning "Three Great Eye Techniques"), along with the Byakugan and the Rinnegan.[27] The Sharingan is also called "Heaven's Eye" (天眼, Tengan), because of the many abilities it grants the user.[28] The Sharingan's abilities consist of two parts: the "Eye of Insight" (洞察眼, Dōsatsugan) and the "Eye of Hypnotism" (催眠眼, Saimingan).[29] The first of the Sharingan's powers is being able to see chakra flow. The Sharingan itself gives colour to chakra, allowing the wielder to differentiate them.[30] They are also able to tell if a person is under a genjutsu because the person's chakra flow would be irregular. The Sharingan's second-most prominent ability grants the user an incredible clarity of perception, allowing them to easily recognise genjutsu and different forms of chakra, though not to the same extent as the Byakugan.

By infusing their calcium with chakra, they could manipulate the growth and properties of their bones to their liking.[31] The ability seems to be rare amongst the clan members, as Kimimaro is the only known user even prior to his clan being eradicated.
