The black-blooded sea of puppets that destroyed a country!!

One can tell the true power of a puppet user by the amount of puppets they can handle. "A puppet per finger," in short ten puppets, was the highest peak achieved so far, but this technique overthrows common sense. By directly connecting the puppets to the "core" inside the body, using one's fingers becomes unnecessary. The user can make the puppets move with their will. Even a hundred puppets can be successfully manipulated, as if using one's limbs.


 * ↑↓ Because the puppets are directly connected to the core, there is no time lag between the user's will and the puppets' movement. Such war potential is powerful enough to even make a country fall.

Visiting unexpectedly from the depths of one's heart Dancing in the sky are successive attacks of a wondrous bird!!

Utmost speed and utmost strength should be collected into one's own fist with all one's heart—— The Morning Peacock is the certain-kill taijutsu born from this philosophy of Guy. The principle of this taijutsu is to rapidly increase the body's abilities by opening the Eight Gates up to and including the sixth gate and then strike the enemy down with countless punches. With speed so high that the friction produces flames, the destructive power of the successive attacks doesn't even give the victim time to say his farewells. All enemies that faced this technique in the past were utterly destroyed! When Guy looks forward to certain victory, the flames from his fists paint the sky. As bright as the sunrise, as brilliant as a peacock's tail feathers!!


 * ↓ Surely only Guy could remain safe even after opening up to the sixth gate!!


 * ← The technique is started by kicking up the enemy. For an ordinary person, this one shot would result in inevitable death.

For the person receiving the attack, nothing remains, but to get burned and die!!

Is this heavenly net of rain, falling down and enclosing, the tears of a god grieving for his village?

A perception ninjutsu, allowing one to freely manipulate rain infused with the user's own chakra. In the village of Amegakure, it rains each week on Sunday... This rain falls from rain clouds, formed with Pain's own chakra. During this technique, the falling raindrops are closely linked to Pain's senses. When the rain is obstructed by a chakra belonging to someone not of the village, the existence of the intruder can be detected. Also, in order to function in the "place" where the technique was invoked, the rain will keep on falling until Pain uses the seal to cancel it. Therefore, when Pain leaves the village, he always uses this technique, keeping a close eye on the village of Amegakure.


 * → When Pain unleashes the technique, the rain falls. The hunt for intruders begins...

Covering the village is a strict, vigilant net!!


 * ↑ The rain seems convenient for infiltrating. However, it is a definite trap.

A technique that implements the Sexy: Girl on Girl Technique. A forbidden(?) technique that confuses and excites women by changing into two naked men. Unlike when changing into girls, other things are vital besides proportions, like the selection and combination of the men one transforms into and how they pose.


 * ↑ By being well acquainted with the person the technique is targeted to and adjusting the transformation accordingly, one can deliver an even greater impact.

Pushing the development even further The evolved line of erotic ninjutsu!!

Naruto's Harem Technique, as arranged by Konohamaru. It is consecutively using the Shadow Clone Technique and Transformation Technique, but by having the user himself and the shadow clone change into different people on the moment of transformation, an epoch-making evolution has been achieved. Because several different seducing girls appear, the chances of meeting the preferences of the target are upped significantly. The bewitching transformation of wild joy will make an adult shinobi have no doubt they've died and gone to Heaven!!

{| class="wikitable collapsible collapsed" border="1" ! Footnotes

People are wont to recognise this as "superhuman strength," but it is an application of medical ninjutsu, demanding the ability to concentrate and minute chakra control.

In an instant, the highest grade of chakra is kneaded inside the body, and a moment later all of it it is gathered into the right fist!! That chakra is dispersed into the target, together with the impact of the punch, spreading the damage to every nook and corner! Any kind of strength is meaningless before this technique. With the damage done dependent on the amount of chakra used, it is also possible for a skilled shinobi to amass it in their fingertip.


 * ← The ground, showered with punches, is pulverised into minute pieces by the excess shock, which are then scattered like flower petals, giving rise to the name "Cherry Blossom Impact".

The scattered fragments become like flower petals, blooming and fluttering about!!

A ninjutsu with pre-eminent destructive power, caused by wildly spinning chakra inside one's palm and compressing it to a high density—— The Rasengan. Using the same essentials, but rapidly increasing the amount of chakra used; that is the Big Ball Rasengan. Compressed to an even higher density than ever before, the chakra is released all at once as soon as the technique hits the target, releasing an extraordinary destructive power...!! Proportional to this power, the amount of chakra it consumes is also extraordinary. With him possessing the near-inexhaustible supply of the Nine Tails' chakra, it could be said that this technique is for no-one but Naruto

Launched like a missile, a heavy punch of certain crushing death!!

After having made modifications to one's own body, this technique launches a detached part of an arm, using it as a projectile weapon. With a small-scale explosion, caused by chakra collected in the cut end, the arm portion gains propulsive power and flies off in a straight line with tremendous force. Its destructive power is great enough to easily break through even thick bedrock, but the arm portion is protected with chakra, allowing it to remain unscathed. The chakra in the cut end draws it back like a magnet, reattaching it again.


 * → The propulsive power is acquired by making chakra explode in the cut end of the launched wrist.

Although the silence is broken, the party is over The frog's cries resound in vain

This technique has the user place their hand on the forehead of the target and then, according to a mental image, instantaneously changes the opponent into a frog. This technique is used when interrogating several prisoners of war. Seeing a comrade change into a frog before their eyes, the prisoners of war cave in, becoming what could be described as a "frog chorus," sonorously chanting information. This terrifying technique will, without a doubt, make an "information leak" open up.

When it comes to methods with which a shinobi can search for or pursue a target, there are many methods borrowing the power of animals with they excellent senses of sight and smell. There are also methods of searching for the chakra released by the target, but these can only be used by excellent sensing-type shinobi.


 * ↑ With the opponent's search method found out, it is possible to use this against them and hinder their search.


 * ↑ Kiba uses his own sense of smell, exceeding even that of ninken, to search for his target.

Changed into sharp needles, the shadows pierce through numerous enemies!!

A ninjutsu from among the Nara clan's secret techniques that make good use of shadows, this technique uses materialised shadows to attack and capture. Transforming one's own shadow into several sharp needle shapes and controlling each separately...! One can attack several targets simultaneously and at the same time snatch away their ability to move by sewing them stuck with the shadow threads. Because it is a physical attack, like the Shadow Imitation Technique, it is impossible to capture someone without harming them, but on the other hand, since the speed of invocation and the time of duration are excellent, it can be used when urgent restraint is required.


 * ←↓ This technique is usually used to go through the target and capture them, but depending on the opponent, it can also be used as an attack to bring them down. This special characteristic finds its greatest effect when used as logistical support.

A blade infused with one's own power, thrown through the shadow of an enemy, stopping their movement!

A union of the ninjutsu characteristic of the Nara clan and a ninja tool, this ingenious ninjutsu could only have come from Shikamaru. By infusing the chakra blades with his own chakra beforehand, they are given the effect of the shadow techniques. By using these weapons to pierce the enemy's shadow, the Shadow Imitation Technique that forces the opponent to make the same movements as the user, is invoked. As it is more difficult for the enemy notice it, this ninjutsu also compensates for the weak point of the similar Shadow Imitation Technique, being its limited effective range.

An ingenious ninjutsu using chakra blade and wit!!


 * ↑→ To pierce the shadow, it is necessary to avoid the target just barely. Shikamaru solved this difficult problem by attaching a fake explosive tag to the blades.


 * ↓ When the chakra blades are combined with Shikamaru's intelligence, this technique shows the infinite reach of its potential!

A ninjutsu using materialised shadows, but compared to the Shadow Sewing from the same line, this technique places emphasis on the minute control of the shadow's movements. Basically, this technique is taking one's own shadow and transforms and stretches it into countless thin tentacles, which are then used to grab objects and pull them in. Also, one can also skilfully make use of the tentacle-shaped shadow tendrils by using them to lift up and throw weapons like kunai and such. This technique has many possible applications and uses.


 * ↑ When used in combination with ninja tools, the technique displays the greatest effect!


 * → The user has minute control, accurate enough to even make the tentacles go through tiny holes.

Using roots to glide through the ground, this is a espionage and subterranean travel technique!!

This infiltration technique is characteristic of Zetsu. It allows him to merge his body with the ground and flora and travel at high speed. His insectivorous plant-like shell has the ability to merge with the ground, because it is tinged with his chakra. Then, using the underground network of organic matter, consisting of things like plant roots and water veins, he can travel everywhere with high speed. While using this jutsu, his presence is completely concealed. No person would be able to percieve Zetsu's existence.

[picture of Zetsu watching from a tree trunk] [picture of Zetsu appearing from a branch, next to Tobi] ↑→Zetsu can conceal himself in trees, sand, and the like. When seeing fellow shinobi fight, this jutsu conceals his presence.


 * Mayflies are insects, well-known for having a very short lifespan. Adult mayflies only life for half an hour to a day, depending on the species.

Kagerou may also be short for "usubakagerou" (薄羽蜉蝣), the Japanese name for the adult antlion (these adults have no wide-spread name in English). The larvæ of this insect, the antlions proper, are well-known for burrowing sand pits in which they trap ants and such. These larvæ (and the pits they dig) are called arijigoku (蟻地獄, "ant hell") in Japanese.

If the amount of oil that is prepared is kept down, the time it takes to invoke the technique is reduced. This allows the enemy to be stricken unawares, allowing the oil-containing flame bullet to burn them up completely. It is also possible to shoot out a series of of flame bullets by partitioning the oil...!!

 * Nature Transformation - The Principle of Counterbalancing!! |

With the rivalling relationships between the Five Basic Elemental Natures* established, what would happen if two techniques of the same nature would hit each other? If the same amount of chakra put into the technique was transformed, the techniques would cancel each other out.

[picture of Kakashi using Raikiri** to block Kakuzu's Lightning Release: False Darkness***] ←Kakuzu's "Lightning Release: False Darkness" is counterbalanced by the equivalent Lightning Release "Raikiri".

↓Sasuke and Itachi attack each other with the "Fire Release: Great Fire Ball Technique". By using the power of the Cursed Seal's "State 2," Sasuke overwhelms Itachi!! [picture of Sasuke and Itachi using the Fire Release: Great Fire Ball Technique**** against each other]

However, if one of the techniques had more chakra put into it, it would overcome the other technique. In that case, since the loosing technique is overtaken and absorbed, the damage the looser can receive will be unfathomable.

They are named after, and based on, the Five Elements from Japanese philosophy (五大, Godai, literally "Great Five"): Earth (地, Chi), Water (水, Sui), Fire (火, Ka), Wind (風, Fuu), and Void (空, Kuu), which in turn are derived from Buddhism. They differ considerably from the more famous Chinese Five Elements (五行, Chinese: Wǔxíng, Japanese: Gogyou): Metal (金, Chinese: Jīn), Wood (木, Chinese: Mù), Water (水, Chinese: Shuǐ), Fire (火, Chinese: Huǒ), and Earth (土, Chinese: Tǔ).

 * The Japanese for this sentence is 「油断大敵粘着弾」 ("Yudan Taiteki Nenchakudan"). Nenchakudan means "sticky bullet". "Yudan Taiteki" is a Japanese proverb, meaning "unpreparedness is one's greatest enemy". There's a pun involved here: Yudan (油断, unpreparedness, negligence) is written with the kanji for "oil" and "failure" and is pronounced the same as "oil bullet".

Paper Shuriken (紙手裏剣, Kami Shuriken) Ninjutsu, D-rank, Offensive, Mid- to long range (5+m) User: Konan

Scraps of paper, sharpened with chakra become sky-splitting blades!!

A technique that consists of pouring one's chakra into a scrap of paper in a split second, hardening and sharpening it, so it can be used as a shuriken. Its sharpness is equal to that of a shuriken made of metal. The user can further increase the power of the shuriken by making it into certain shapes.

[picture of Konan drawing her Paper Shuriken] →It's an emergency measure for when one's ninja tools have ran out, but if used by an expert, it becomes a powerful weapon!!

Authority of the Gods* (神威, Kamui) Ninjutsu, Kekkei Genkai, No rank, Offensive, Defensive, All ranges User: Hatake Kakashi

Changing the dimension in one's field of vision. A lavish, unparallelled dimensional doujutsu!!

Kakashi's original doujutsu, released from the "Mangekyou Sharingan". It allows one to transfer anything to another dimension. If one spends a lot of time and trains one's chakra over and over again, this technique can be invoked. The target is enveloped with a barrier space, and the user concentrates their mind to what they gaze at... The target can struggle helplessly, but against this technique no defense is possible. No matter what, the space will distort and draw the target in.

[picture of Kakashi's Mangekyou Sharingan] →One glare with the "Mangekyou Sharingan". The barrier's location and size can be specified at will.

[picture sequence of Deidara's elbow disappearing] ↑When the technique is invoked, the space at the centre of the barrier is distorted and the target inside the barrier is drawn in completely... There is no technique that can compete against this one. It's a dreadful technique that, with skilled use, can even pull an enitire human being into another dimension.

The "Mangekyou Sharingan" is a doujutsu that, with continuous usage, burdens the user with the loss of their eyesight. Since this is the source of "Kamui," using it in rapid succession puts Kakashi's body at risk as well.

［picture of Kakashi holding his hand over his eye］ ↑Kakashi obtained his "Sharingan" though a transplant. The strain his body suffers may be far more severe than the a member of the "Uchiha clan" would suffer.

I believe it would be best translated as "authority," "majesty," or "might".
 * Kamui refers to the power, might, and authority of the Gods. That which makes the Gods gods. "Kamu" (神) comes from "kami," meaning "god" or "gods". "I" (威) is a kanji with a complex meaning. The dictionary I use describes it as 「人をおそれ従わせる力. 」 ("the power to compel people to do one's bidding through fear"). It also describes it as 「威厳があってしかも荒々しくない. 君子の理想的な人柄をいう. 」 ("dignity without roughness. The ideal personality of a man of virtue").

A technique that produces a clone by projecting one's own chakra towards dozens of "crows". Because it uses crows as an medium, it requires less chakra then the normal "Shadow Clone Technique," while still being able to perform techniques.

One's Own Life's Reincarnation (己生転生, Kishou Tensei) Ninjutsu, S-rank, Supplementary, Short range (0-5m) User: Chiyo

A kinjutsu that transcends death, using one's own life as an intermediary

The reincarnation technique developed in Sunagakure. Giving one's life force to the target, using all one's chakra as an intermediary... This technique can be used on both the living and dead, but when used on the dead, the user will find certain death in exchange for the deceased's soul. Out of humane motives, Sunagakure labelled this technique as a "kinjutsu" immediately after its development. Nowadays, the only one who can use this technique is its developer, Chiyo.

The act of thinking about the future and entrusting one's life to it

[picture of Chiyo's face while using ] ↑While the technique is invoked, the released chakra shines pale-blue!!

Explosive Clay (起爆粘土, Kibaku Nendo) Ninjutsu, Hiden, Offensive, Defensive, Supplementary, All ranges User: Deidara

By sculpting and blowing up, the enemy is destroyed! Ultimate art, interweaving destruction with plastic beauty!!

Art That is, an object with a certain form that, in an instant, is bereaved of that shape and sublimates... in other words, an "explosion"! Deidara's characteristic technique takes that sort of definate view of art and puts it to practical use by uniting it with ninjutsu... That is "Exploding Clay". The clay is endowed with explosive properties by biting into it with one of the several mouth found across Deidara's body and mixing it with chakra. In a flash, the clay, molded into various forms, gives rise to a giant explosion with a yell of "Katsu"*. Because the statues can be remotely controlled at will with chakra, it is possible to launch an attack from anywhere, be it land sea, or air. Also, by varying the chakra mixed in with the clay, one can create a great variaty of "Explosive Clay," all with different effects and scope.

[picture of Deidara consuming clay with the mouth on his hand] ←He can easily use the "mouths" in either of his hands, but he uses the left one the most.

[picture of Deidara saying his infamous quote "art is a bang"**] ↑The user can make the clay explode at any time.

Depending on the of chakra kneaded through, there are different methods of "Exploding Clay"!!

●C1● This small-sized "Exploding Clay", its explosive power restrained to the utmost, is mainly used for covert actions, suprise attacks, and the like. The design of the bombs often takes the shape of deformed beetles.

●C2● While the user is riding on the back of this giant dragon***-shaped "Exploding Clay," the target is pursued by the guided missiles spit from its mouth! It is utilised to its greatest effect when combined with landmines, placed beforehand.

●C3● [picture of Deidara detonating his C3 bomb above Sunagakure] ↑Deidara himself calls this his "pride". The explosive power is especially great, capable of even destroying a village!

It's a simple type, dropped down from the sky, but when only considering explosive power, it boasts the highest level. The explosion's scale and beauty, and the humanoid design of the "Explosive Clay," doing away with any and all excess lines, are something to be proud of.

●C4● When this gigantic puppet, modeled after Deidara himself, ruptures, extremely small bombs are released and scattered across a wide range. When these nanosized bombs, impossible to be seen with ordinary human eyes, are inhaled, they will set themselves everywhere inside the body. The countless small explosions occuring throughout the body will destroy the target's body from within at the cellular level. The person themselves will be dead before they notice the attack!!

[picture of Deidara's C4 about to explode] ←Using the blast of the figure's explosion, the tiny bombs are scattered across a vast range!!


 * Katsu (喝, "scold") is a shout used in Zen Buddhism to express one's own enlightened state and to induce another person to move beyong rationality and logic and possibly even achieve an initial enlightenment experience.
 * "Art is a bang" (芸術は爆発だ, "Geijutsu wa bakuhatsu da") is actually a quote of the famous Japanese artist Okamoto Tarou (岡本太郎). A lot of Deidara's character and artstyle is based on Okamoto and his works.
 * The dragon meant here is the Western-style dragon (ドラゴン, doragon), not the Japanese (or more generally Asian) dragon (龍, Ryuu)

Nature and abilities are almost exactly the same!! One's own clone, as if reflected by a full-length mirror!!

A double trap laid under the "Five Seal Barrier". This technique is automatically started when the "Forbidden"-fuda* are removed. The remover's appearance, battle skills, and so on are perfectly copied by a duplicate body that appears and attacks suddenly!! Because the double has a fixed amount of stamina, it's at a disadvantage in a drawn-out battle. In order to cancel this technique, the one who removed the fuda has no choice but to grow beyond how they were at the time they removed it.

[picture of the ground bulging] [picture of a clone taking form] ↑→The instant the "forbidden"-fuda are removed, this technique is invoked. As the copies rise from the ground, they take on the shape of the one who removed the fuda!!

The only way to win is to exceed oneself!?


 * A fuda, or o-fuda (御札) is a kind of talisman or charm, made of paper. It is placed on walls, pillars, doors, and windows as a guard against evil spirits and such. They are often seen in manga and anime as a kind of mystical weapon. The exploding tags in Naruto are fuda, for example.

Kirin (p. 247)
Kirin* (麒麟, Kirin) Ninjutsu, S-rank, Offensive, Long range (10+m) User: Uchiha Sasuke

The neighing of an angry divine beast goes down in an attack that shakes the Heavens and moves the Earth!!

The technique Sasuke thought out, said to be the culmination of the Lightning nature. First one uses a technique from the Fire Release line, like the Great Dragon Fire,** to radically heat up the atmosphere, creating a violent updraught. The updraught creates cumulonimbus clouds*** and from the cumulonimbus clouds breaks forth lightning...!! One changes the shape of this lightning, guides it to the target, and uses it to destroy the enemy in a roar that makes even the Heavens tremble. Because this ninjutsu makes good use of a natural phenomenon, one can invoke it using only a small quantity of chakra. Sasuke, aspiring to become the pinnacle of shinobi, finally tamed even "lightning" itself.

The enemy is destroyed by the sound of thunder!

[picture of the lightning in the shape of the Kirin] [picture of the Kirin hitting its target] ↑←The lightning is formed into the shape of the legendary divine beast "Kirin" and used to attack the target! This lightspeed attack is impossible to evade. The enemy will be obliterated before they can even blink!!

Kirin is also the Japanese name for the giraffe. This is because when the famous Chinese explorer Zheng He brought back two giraffes from Africa in 1414, they were thought to be kirin. This is most likely because it vaguely resembles a deer in shape, has horn-like protrusions on its head, and has spots that could be mistaken for scales.
 * A kirin (Qílín in Chinese) is a creature appearing in various East-Asian mythologies and is said to punish the wicked. It is also known as the Chinese unicorn. It is said to be a deer-like, hoofed animal with scales and horns and it ranks third highest in the hierarchy of mythological creatures. Only the dragon and phoenix are ranked higher. All three, together with the lion, another important animal in East-Asian mythology, are used to in the names of Sasuke's techniques.

Amassing an inexhaustable amount of sand and turning it into an air defence shield!!

This air defence technique creates a giant shield, suspended in midair, by raising a great amount of sand from the ground. By gathering the best possible mineral-rich sand, the hardness of the shield is very high. Furthermore, the sand had its defensive strength raised by flowing chakra through it. Also, the important point of this technique is Gaara's strong sense of duty as Kazekage to "protect the village"...!

[picture of the Kuusa Bouheki protecting Sunagakure against Deidara's C3 explosion] ↑Even though Deidara used his favourite trick, "C3," because of the solid shield, not a single injury was caused...!!

The pallid sharp blade that pierces through everything sings the song of thunder!!

Among those techniques that use a "chakra flow" to raise cutting ability or make use of the "Chidori," this technique in particular is called "Chidori Katana," because it flows Lightning-natured chakra through a katana. The radiating and chirping blade can easily cut up even steel. Furthermore, the body of the person cut by the sword goes numb, taking away their freedom of movement!!

[picture of yamato being stabbed in the shoulder by Sasuke's Kusanagi Sword] ←The "Chidori" flows through the blade, into the enemy's body. The muscles hit by the electrical current go stiff, making it impossible to move!!

Amaterasu later gave it to her grandson Ninigi-no-Mikoto (瓊瓊杵尊) when she send him to pacify Japan. Through him, it eventually came into the hands of his great-grandson Jimmu Tennou (神武天皇, Emperor Jimmu), the first emperor of Japan. It is still considered one of the Imperial regalia of Japan, together with the mirror Yata-no-Kagami (八咫鏡) and jewel Yasakani-no-Magatami (八尺瓊勾玉). Generations after Jimmu Tennou, the great warrior prince Yamato-Takeru-no-Mikoto (日本武尊) used the sword to save his life by cutting down grass that had been set on fire by a treacherous warlord. This is how it got its most famous name Kusanagi, meaning "Grass Cutter".
 * The Kusanagi-no-Tsurugi (草薙剣) is sword from real-life mythology. It's as important to Japan's history as Excalibur is to Britain's. After defeating the great snake Yamata-no-Orochi (八岐大蛇) by getting him drunk on sake, the god Susanoo-no-Mikoto (須佐能乎命) discovered the Kusanagi in one of its tails, after breaking his own sword, the Totsuka-no-Tsurugi (十拳剣), on it. He called the sword Ama-no-Murakumo-no-Tsurugi (天叢雲剣, "Sword of the Gathering Clouds of Heaven") and would later give it to the sun goddess Amaterasu-Oomikami (天照大神) as an apology.


 * Chidori (千鳥) means "a thousand birds". It's from a story about a sixteenth-century military commander named Tachibana Dousetsu, who owned a sword named the Chidori. One day, he was struck by lightning while sitting under a tree. Acting quickly, he drew his sword and cut the Thunder God riding the lightning. This saved his life and after this incident, he changed the name of his sword from Chidori to Raikiri (雷切, "Lightning Cutter").

The blade of the katana is longer then about 60cm. Similar swords with shorter blades are called wakizashi (脇差)
 * A Katana is a type of Japanese sword. It has a slender, curved blade with a single edge and a grip long enough for two hands. It's renowned for its extraordinary sharpness.

Summoning: Toad Store Technique (口寄せ・蝦蟇見世の術, Kuchiyose: Gama Mise no Jutsu) Ninjutsu, B-rank, Offensive, All ranges User: Jiraiya

The sweet invitation is a toad trap!! Helplessly imprisoned inside a stomach!!

This technique summons a "Store Toad" (見世蝦蟇, Mise Gama), living on Mt. Myouboku, and imprisons the enemy within its stomach. The "Store Toad" is capable of changing into a building and with their chakra, the user gives the building a design they imagined themselves. Lured in with the temptation of "all you can drink for 500 ryou*," the visiting target is instead drunk up themselves...!!

↓From the moment the cancellation handseal is performed, it takes only a few seconds for the "Store Toad" to return to its original small shape...!! [picture of the Store Toad in it's normal form]

[picture sequence of "Club Frog" turning back into the Store Toad] ↑As soon as the handseal is performed, "Club Frog" retakes the shape of a toad!! Inside, the intruders, caught in the stomach lining let out a shriek of terror.

↓When the the "Store Toad" has gulped down the enemy and returned to its original shape, it quietly takes its leave on account of "closing up shop". [picture of the Store Toad heading for the water]

Perfect capture!!


 * The ryou (両) is the currency used in the Naruto world. It's based on an old coin used in Japan before the Meiji Restoration. One ryou is worth ten yen.

Summoning: Triple Rashoumon* (口寄せ・三重羅生門, Kuchiyose: Sanjuu Rashoumon) Ninjutsu, A-rank, Defensive User: Orochimaru

Receive - reduce - disperse: The three steps of an absolute prison gate defense!!

A defensive wall that waits with firm pose and open mouth to gulp down every attack The "Rashoumon" that is supplied in threefold by Orochimaru's physical defensice technique!! The first gate takes the attack head-on, the second gate specialises in decreasing its power, and the third gate disperses the pressure... Because each of the three gates has a different duty, all attacks will have lost their power before reaching the user. Summoning three "Rashoumon" in an instant, while just one consumes a massive amount of chakra... Being able to use this ultimate absolute defense just shows why Orochimaru was once called "Sannin"**. The gates of carnage, arrived from hell easily chase away the opponent's power, seemingly if ridiculing their screaming. After that, nothing remains but for the person bitten back by Orochimaru to embrace great despair...

[picture of Orochimaru's face] ←The unique absolute gates, called out from the depths of the Earth, make Orochimaru swell up with self-confidence, no matter what the circumstances.

↓In an instant, the three great gates rise above their surroundings like mountains! While protecting, the bizarre style of the gates and their malicious aura threaten the opponent. [picture of the the three Rashoumon appearing]

The "unopenable demons," invited with a double handseal

The most famous Rashoumon is the one that used to stand in Kyoto. It was the grander of the two city gates built during the Heian period. It was built in 789, but had fallen into disrepair by the twelfth century. It had become an unsavory place, with a reputation as a hideout for thieves and other disreputable characters. People would abandon corpses and unwanted babies at the gate. It became most famous after the ruined gate became the central setting in the eponymous 1950 film, directed by the famous Kurosawa Akira.
 * Rashoumon (meaning "the gate leading to the outer castle precincts") was the name of two, now destroyed, gates. One used to be in Kyoto and the other in Nara. It's possible a third Rashoumon was located in Kashihara. The Rashoumon was one of two main gates leading into the castle precincts.
 * Sannin (三忍, "Three Ninja"). The title given to Orochimaru, Jiraiya and Tsunade for their amazing feats.

Summoning: Lightning Blade Creation* (口寄せ・雷光剣化, Kuchiyose: Raikou Kenka) Ninjutsu, B-rank, Supplementary, Short range (0-5m) User: Uchiha Sasuke

A variaty of sealed battle tools At the request of their master, they make their appearance!!

This is a kind of "ninja tool summong" that, by sealing ninja tools like swords or kunai into, for instance, a scroll or one's clothes beforehand, allows them to be called upon when needed. The greatest advantage of this technique is that the time between "taking out" a ninja tool, taking the right "stance" and actually "throwing" it is greatly reduced. The ninja tools are thrown with the actual speed of a "flash of lightning," ruining the opponent's outset of the battle, and snatching away the initiative...!! Furthermore, because the summonable ninja tools can remain hidden until right before they are used, if this technique is mastered, there are an exceptional number of possible tactics.

[picture of Sasuke summoning 2 shuriken from his wrists ↑Just by touching the "marks" that can be drawn anywhere, the ninja tools are summoned in an instant!!

Now is the time to win or lose! Returning to my hand is a long-serving warrior's tool!!

[picture of Sasuke summoning a giant shuriken] ↑When a weapon is summoned, the time needed to throw it can be further shortened by having prepared the weapon in fully extended form beforehand.


 * The "blade" is usually translated as "sword". However, this "sword" shouldn't be intepreted as merely meaning "sword". The meaning extends to practically all sharp weapons. Even shuriken fall under this (the last kanji in shuriken is the same as the kanji for "sword" in this name). I chose to translate it as "blade" to capture the broader meaning.

Also, the exact meaning of this name would be "Lightning sword-ification". With the "lightning" referring to the speed at which it happens. The "lightning" doesn't refer to the electricity of lightning, though. It specifically refers to the flash of lightning.

A hurricane and a stream of water interweaving A shielding curtain of white mist!!

This combination ninjutsu uses the wild rotation of the "Rasengan" to swallow up the water current created by the "Water Release: Tearing Torrent"*, creating a large quantity of water vapour. Once invoked, a strong wind whirls around inside the highly conentrated mist, turning it into a solid barrier, repelling techniques, attacks, and such. The mist created by the violent rotating of the "Rasengan" also has the effect of taking away the enemy's field of vision. Of course, the mist can be used as a smokescreen when escaping, but the confusion it creates can also be used, for instance, to launch a suprise attack. It can be said that this technique has exceedingly many practical uses.

After summoning a "Gourd Toad" (瓢箪蝦蟇, Hyoutan Gama) from Mt. Myouboku, one drags the target into its stomach. There exists a "barrier space" that is isolated from the outside world. It is also possible to push the target into an acid lake and dissolve them.

Floating in the darkness are virtual images of the "Akatsuki"!!

The "Akatsuki" members sit down and send out "though waves," converted into chakra. These thought waves are then picked up by Pain, acting as a kind of control tower. This technique amplifies the thought waves and broadcasts them to a specific location through illusionary bodies. The illusionary bodies differ from being mere reflections. While Pain is relaying the members' thoughts, they can still use varying jutsu.

A solid connection between five fuda¹ Without exception keeping everyone from opening the door!!

By spreading "forbidden"-fuda, connected to each other by the user's chakra, to five locations with the location to be protected in the centre and attaching them to a flat surface, this technique turns the entire range surrounded by the fuda into a barrier space. Inside the space, the material destruction is "forbidden". To cancel this, it is necessary to search for the five fuda and tear them off.

[picture of Team Guy standing in front of the sealed Akatsuki hideout] [picture of Guy trying to destroy the giant rock blocking the entrance] ↑→Inside the barrier, using any kind of physical attack to try and destroy something is folly, as it will only lead to injury.

¹ A fuda, or o-fuda (御札) is a kind of talisman or charm, made of paper. It is placed on walls, pillars, doors, and windows as a guard against evil spirits and such. They are often seen in manga and anime as a kind of mystical weapon. The exploding tags in Naruto are fuda, for example.

 * Overtaking the barrier with two platoons |

To break into an enemy base protected by a "Five Seal Barrier¹," it is best to have two four-man platoons. One party goes to cancel the four fuda², as the other party cancels the final fuda at the base, and breaks in at the same time. From this, it is possible to plan an infiltration while maintaining the war potential. If a detection-type shinobi is present, it is possible to deal with the barrier even faster.

↓Being vigilant of an ambush directly after breaking in, and determining and affirming a quick method of infiltrating. [picture of Kakashi discussing the plan to break in as he is about to peel off the fuda]

Protecting the user while destroying the enemy!


 * →↓ As the strongest dōjutsu, only they can reach it who have taken the Mangekyō Sharingan —feared by those around it— to its extremes; a godly state to achieve. It is the user's guardian deity, but at the same time, it consumes the user's life.

Dwelling in the eyes that grasp the truth of Heaven and Earth is a valorous, sword-wielding, shield-bearing, fierce god!!

Amaterasu, denoting the "light of the material world" and Tsukuyomi , symbolising the "darkness of the spiritual world"—— Only they who have activated the Mangekyō Sharingan —the heavenly eyes that see without obstruction the truth of all of creation— are permitted to use these two dōjutsu. Dwelling only in they who have grasped both of these technique is the power of a tempestuous god... that is Susanoo. The materialised chakra takes on the form of a god of war with a commanding face and powerful physique. His fierce soul will not calm down until he has destroyed all enemies before his eyes...!!

There is a reason Susanoo boasts absolute perfection in both offence and defence— That reason is the Sacred Treasures he holds in both hands. In his right hand is the Totsuka Sword that will strike down any kind of enemy and the shield in his left hand is the Yata Mirror that will reflect all attacks. Whether they be material or spiritual, ninjutsu or physical attacks, they all lose their meaning before this god's potency.
