As we know, every ninja needs to sign a contract to summon an animal. However,
Sasuke suddenly summoned a hawk, after summoning snakes all the time.

How can someone change the animal he summons?

> I know that with _Keiyaku Fūin_ , the contract can be broken, but I guess
> that works a little bit different, not?

How to summon a different animal using Kuchiyose?


Kuchiyose is a highly controversial jutsu, cloaked in mystery.

At the beginning of the series, Naruto is presented with the frog contract
scroll. In which he signs with blood, thereby validating the contract. From
that point onward, he can summon frogs. The same happens with Jiraiya (who's
name is earlier on the list).

Orochimaru has a tattoo on his right arm, on which he smears the blood
required for the summon.

Madara Uchiha was seen summoning the Kyuubi after taking control of it, and
using it in battle against Hashirama, seemingly without a contract.

Tobi was seen using the same technique after he unsealed him from Kushina.

As for the Rinnegan's Animal Path, it's very likely to assume that the
summoned animals are some sort of zombies as well (much like the Rikudo no
Jutsu's bodies), as they have the Rinnegan and the Piercing (and doesn't talk
at all).

It seems that a general contract with the species, or control over the
specific creature is enough. If there's a contract, both sides can freely
summon each other (As seen by Shima's reverse summoning). If there isn't one,
it probably takes the "consent" of both sides for the technique to work (Or,
the forced consent, in the case of the Kyuubi).

* * *

The technique is very unclear in nature. It's a space-time ninjutsu, which on
itself is a mystery, and very little is known about it. We don't have much
more detail than that.

I don't think the contracts are exclusive, but to answer in terms of Pain,
Madara, & Obito, The [_Animal
Path_](https://naruto.fandom.com/wiki/Animal_Path) requires no blood or hand
symbols, thus it's safe to assume standard rules like a contract doesn't
apply, Madara & Obito could summon the 10 tails because they had the Rinnegan
& its accompanying chakra & could use the Animal Path of the [_Six
Paths_](https://naruto.fandom.com/wiki/Six_Paths_of_Pain) abilities.

Pain could summon whatever he wanted & apply his own jutsu to whatever he
summoned as seen with the [_Giant Multi-Headed
Dog_](https://naruto.fandom.com/wiki/Giant_Multi-Headed_Dog) that he summoned,
the only difference with those summons & the 10 tails was that they had been
modified using the chakra conducting rods (receptor rods) & were the
equivalent of zombies with no control of their own bodies & no evident
consciousness as the rods allows Pain to control the beast entirely by
channeling his chakra through the rods, this gave them Rinnegan as the chakra
flowing through them (From Nagato) was Six Paths chakra. Something could be
dead & with chakra rods you could make it seem as they are alive (queue the 6
paths of Pain).

Naruto never bothered/tried to try sign a contract with any other species so
only summoned frogs but he could have also signed a contract with a bear or
that crazy Pterodactyl race Pain found etc.
