No because if they are equal in force they would work in unison when sasuke and Naruto combined Naruto Uzumaki's Wind Release: Rasenshuriken with Sasuke Uchiha's Blaze Release: Kagutsuchi to create Scorch Release: Halo Gale Jet Black Arrow Style Zero the fire did not consume the wind they simply acted in complete unison empowering each other. one could say the same thing about rasenshuriken combined with kirin, Kirin could be used to paralize kaguya inhibiting her ability to absorb chakra allowing for Naruto's rasenshuriken to attack her and cut her on a molecular level In response to this, air is an insulator. So basically it'd snuff the lightning out. Air feeds fire, that's how the Scorch Release: Halo Gale Jet Black Arrow Style Zero thingy worked. Before you yell that air would snuff fire out, Yamato explained that as long as the wind technique wasn't stronger than the fire technique, the wind technique would just fan its flames.

In response to the Rasengan thing:

Naruto already required help to form JUST the Rasengan. Basically, conatining 100% of your power by rotating it in all directions is very, very hard. Naruto complained that it was difficult enough to use the normal Rasengan when he was trying to add his Wind Release to it.

Kakashi couldn't combine his peak nature transformation with his peak shape manipulation. So he stuck with his nature transormation. That's why his Raikiri has no defined shape. In fact, the reason it's so chakra-taxing is probably because he can't manipulate the shape of the chakra into rotating in order to contain it while tranforming his chakra into lighning. So all that chakra is like, spilling out of his hand. MAYBE Kakashi can rotate it wildly in his hand. But contain it to a perfect sphere? I doubt that it's so simple. My theory on that, anyways.

So, no. I don't think it's simple to add nature tranformation to Rasengan.

Now you have your views, I have mine. Just try not to curse at me. It's ill-becoming. We're better than that.

the fact is in real life Air doesn't snuff lightning out, the reason it is strong against Lightning is because it creates a wall of insulation against the lightning allowing the wind release to over power the lightning but as long as the wind release is meant to work in consort with the Kirin it would in no way over power the lightning
