In addition to an opponent's chakra this technique allows a user to "borrow" an ally's chakra which has been changed through nature manipulation, effectively allowing the user to utilize elements they would usually not be able to perform. It should be noted that this borrowing ability is limited to a single technique. If the user wants to utilize that element again, it will require them to borrow it again. Furthermore, borrowing an ally's chakra requires them to not exercise shape manipulation upon their own chakra as it will interfere with the process.
