Five Elements Seal

* Name:
 * Type: A-rank, Supplementary, Short range (0-5m)
 * User: Orochimaru

This jutsu is used to strengthen the seal on the Nine-Tailed Demon Fox. The original seal allowed the demon fox's chakra to seep out into Naruto Uzumaki, but the additional seal disturbs this, preventing Naruto from using the demon fox's chakra or even controlling his own chakra properly. This is because an odd-numbered seal creates an imbalance when placed on top of an even-numbered seal. When Orochimaru noticed that the seal was removed from Naruto when he was searching for Tsunade, he said that only a Sannin or someone at that level could remove the seal which suggests that it is very powerful.

The five elements in the name of this jutsu don't refer to the elemental chakra used in many other jutsu (,, , , and ). Instead, they refer to the Chinese five elements:, , , , and , suggesting the elements are merely symbolic.
