 * Debut (Manga): Chapter 260

The Great Ball Rasengan is a technique created by Naruto Uzumaki while training in the time skip with Jiraiya, prior to the release of the Shippūden episodes. Although this technique requires Naruto to use a shadow clone, the result is a larger ball of condensed chakra that is more powerful than a normal Rasengan. Naruto has only shown this jutsu once in the entire series. It is used in the fight against Itachi Uchiha in which Naruto lands a direct hit (with help from Kakashi Hatake using a shadow clone). It deals astounding damage to the area and the target but takes a lot out of Naruto (most likely due to the incredible amount of chakra used). Ever since it has not been shown so far.

Naruto Shippūden: Narutimate Accel
In Narutimate Accel, Naruto can use a combo jutsu named Extra-Large Rasengan, which derives off of this jutsu.

Naruto Shippūden: Narutimate Accel 2
In Narutimate Accel 2, the above variation is renamed after the Great Ball Rasengan. Great Ball Rasengan is also given a weaker variation in which Naruto uses two Shadow Clones to form a larger Rasengan with no altered appearance, giving Naruto the ability to use it individualy.
