Protective Tag Barrier

This technique was created by the hunter-nin ofKirigakure and according to Ao, they are the only ones who know how to cancel the technique.[1] When a specific part of the user's body is targeted, this technique is automatically activated. The talismans move to cover the specific body part and form a barrier to protect it.

Ao wears these talismans as earrings as a precaution should anyone try and target theByakugan in his right eye socket. These talismans have the kanji for a humble form of "to hear" (承,shō, uketamawa(ru)) on both sides.
