Natural Gift is a bizarre elementless technique, which draws upon the power held within foods and inanimate objects to give the user a single burst of elemental energy.
Description[]
The most basic form of the technique involves the user eating something, and tapping into the intrinsic power held within. Typically, these are berries or wild plants with actual use outside of combat, although all foods have a slight elemental connection, which can be influenced by things such as how it was grown, how it was cooked, even how fresh it is. Each food item varies in power, though, making each use uncertain for effect. More experienced users prefer to crush the berry, or use pre-prepared berry juices, and absorb the energy through the skin before attacking, as it prevents the berry's effect from activating on being eaten, and thus causing the loss of the energy.
However, masters of the attack gain the ability to tap into and use the power of other items, not just foods. As such, any weapon could be used to power this technique, with the same sort of power variance as the foodstuffs. When activated, the user would recite "I accept this gift from nature", a sign that they have drained some of the power from the item. Most basic items only have enough power for a single use before being left to recharge, although empowered items often could last multiple drains.
Interestingly, most advanced elements can also be summoned with both methods, although the items capable of generating them are incredibly rare.

Variants[]
Rank[]
Due to the fact that the technique could draw upon any form of elemental power, most argue that it should bear an S-rank. However, the severe drawbacks of the technique is the unpredictable amount of power that each source provides actually limits the technique down to an A-rank.
