Based on the user's specific chakra nature and ilk, their five senses can be greatly amplified or altered: the Inuzuka Clan is a prime display of concentrated chakra in the nose to snuffle out distinctive scents or odors.
Some carriers of the energy source bear a unique strain of chakra that dwell within their eye sockets. This specific form of the energy can be transformed into an ocular power that can grant the wielder remarkable techniques that only those who possess the eye can perform. The Hyuga own an ocular Jutsu known globally as the Byakugan, and the eye permits the user to view distances that can span miles away from their point of origin. There are also ninja who can pinpoint and sense the presence of this energy as well as a regular signature.
