''A~ll right! I'll eat Shikamaru's portion too!!''

Power with an insatiable appetite Satisfying his stomach and training hard!!

About three years ago, Chōji took his clan's secret pills. After that, he was hit with a new curse called "rebound". While growing up into adulthood, he also had to increase his weight every day. That is why even these days, it is impossible for him to use the too much. However, that day's fight gave Chōji great self-confidence. He realised he too had the power to save his friends...!! Because of this, Chōji trained zealously and continued eating... He believes in the "pride" that says "food" governs the "Akimichi"...!!


 * ← He can now use the Akimichi clan's secret Partial Multi-Size Technique without the aid of pills!! The result of untiring hard work...!!


 * ↑ His speciality, the Spiked Human Bullet Tank, has also undergone improvement.


 * ← His combo with his sworn friend Shikamaru is also doing good. Thanks to the connection between their hearts, they display magnificent teamwork!!


 * As much as he is a kind person, he holds a lot of anger. Finishing the word "fat..." is definitely taboo...!!

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.

Asa Kujaku (p. 224)

 * Taijutsu, A-rank, Offensive, Short range (0–5m)
 * User: Might Guy

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 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.

 * User: Konohamaru

Forbidden terrain already!? A bewitching ninjutsu for the use of women only!!

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!!

A punch packing chakra and determination! With that single punch, even rock is pulverised with ease!!


 * ↓ Together with an intense yell, Sakura lets loose an attack she put her heart and soul into!

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 masterpiece of destructive force!!

The enormous amount of swirling chakra becomes a huge projectile, destroying the enemy!!


 * ↑ The terrifying offensive power breaks through the target of the attack and even gouges out the surrounding ground!! The impact created by the compressed chakra of the Nine Tails can be compared to a collision with a small meteorite...!!

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.

Kaiwan no Hiya (p. 229)

 * Ninjutsu, No rank, Offensive, All ranges
 * User: Pain

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.


 * ↑→ From tree frog to toad... Terrified by their comrade's shape, they will spontaneously start croaking out information!!

With the mind's eye, sense those yonder and survey a thousand ri

Because Karin has excellent perception abilities, it is possible for her to use this enemy-searching technique across an extremely vast range. By closing her eyes and opening her mind's eye, she can perceive abnormal chakra activity within a radius of dozens of kilometres. Also, if she has a specific chakra in mind, she can perceive its location and movements in minute detail.


 * ← She accurately grasps as much as her target's numbers, characteristics and speed of movement.

100 Leafs Collection #38: Search Techniques
Konoha One Hundred Leafs Collection ~ Number Thirty-Eight

Using Diverse Methods, the Target is Found!! —Search Techniques—

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.


 * → By trading senses with animals like birds, one can also search across a wide range.

 * Ninjutsu, Hiden, No rank, Offensive, Supplementary, Short to mid-range (0–10m)
 * User: Shikamaru Nara

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.

Kagemane Shuriken no Jutsu (p. 232)

 * Ninjutsu, Hiden, No rank, Supplementary, Short to mid-range (0–10m)
 * User: Shikamaru Nara

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 enemies' shadows, 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!

Kageyose no Jutsu (p. 233)

 * Ninjutsu, Hiden, No rank, Supplementary, Short to mid-range (0–10m)
 * User: Shikamaru Nara

Agile shadow tentacles, moving at the user's request!!

Obeying one's request, they gather together


 * → From the number of shadow tentacles stretching out, to their length, up to their direction, it all follows the user's will!!

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.

 * User: Zetsu

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 technique, his presence is completely concealed. No person would be able to perceive Zetsu's existence.


 * ↑→ Zetsu can conceal himself in trees, sand, and the like. When seeing fellow shinobi fight, this technique conceals his presence.

A sudden strike is the harbinger of death A surprise attack of mysterious flames...!!

One holds oil, created with chakra, in one's mouth and spits it out together with a Fire Release technique, igniting it. This technique simply shoots a flame bullet at the enemy. 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 unaware, 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...!!


 * ↑ If this technique is fired after covering the enemy with oil using the Toad Oil Bullet, it has plenty of power to wound or kill. As this also keeps down the chakra consumption, it kills two birds with one stone!!

An ascending dragon of flames, consuming the enemy with sharp fangs burning brightly!!

Compressing a great amount of chakra build up inside the body and changing its shape into that of a blazing dragon. Then skilfully manipulating that great fire, one attacks the enemy before one's eyes! If this technique is mastered, it is also possible to fire off several flames after each other. Even outside of the attack range, its power and reliability are stressed. The flames have such a high temperature, they can create updraughts which in turn give rise to cumulonimbus clouds ! The fate of the person caught in the sharp fangs of the dragon flame is to be reduced to ashes in an instant...!!

The roar of the dragon that scorches even the Heavens!!


 * ↑→ The released flames are shaped into the form of a dragon and rush down on the target! The pursuit won't stop until the helpless target is consumed by flames!

Advancing is a tsunami of hell-fire! All one sees is turned to dust!!

This technique drops a small fireball on the ground, but in just a moment, the flames spread to the surrounding area, scorching the entire surface. By adding Wind nature, the vigour of the fire is increased, causing a burning so tremendous, it will reduce the are to a field ravaged by fire...!!


 * → The raging flames strike the enemy from underfoot!! Because the extent is wide, this technique is difficult to evade.

100 Leafs Collection #39: The Principle of Counterbalancing
Konoha One Hundred Leafs Collection ~ Number Thirty-Nine

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 was put into the technique and transformed, the techniques would cancel out each other.


 * ← Kakuzu's Lightning Release: False Darkness is counterbalanced by the equivalent Lightning Release Lightning Cutter.


 * ↓ Sasuke and Itachi attack each other with the Fire Release: Great Fireball Technique. By using the power of the "State 2" of the Cursed Seal, Sasuke overwhelms Itachi——!!

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.

A huge projectile of wondrous flames is released Completely burning Heaven and Earth, there is no escape

The mouth cavity is filled with oil, created inside the body with senjutsu chakra. This oil is then spit out and at the same time ignited with the a Fire Release technique!! This creates a giant flame, equivalent to ten-odd Flame Bullets. This flame will completely cut off the front escape route of an enemy cornered in a hallway or room, or it can thoroughly burn each respective escape route.


 * → Sage Mode Jiraiya's mouth is swollen out and filled with the toad oil created inside.


 * ↓ Just a single shot releases a giant flame bullet, filling up the pathway...!!

Blocking one's field of vision is an ashen-grey formation, turned into a burst of flames with live coals!!

Chakra-altered gunpowder is scattered in the surrounding region and ignited with a flint placed in one's molars beforehand!! The area where the gunpowder is scattered is swallowed up in a large explosion. This technique demands keen senses to read the air currents, the insight to read the movements of the enemy, and the tactical experience to not also enfold one's allies in the flames.


 * ↑→ It explodes in just an instant, destroying the surroundings with fire. Careful attention is vital for the timing of the ignition.

Using the mouth of a toad as cover A waterside infiltration technique!!

The user of this infiltration technique summons a from Mt. Myōboku and hides themselves inside its stomach. This toad can dive up to 100 metres in fresh water. It is particularly effective when infiltrating an enemy camp surrounded by a lake or river. Inside the stomach is also a chakra-blocking barrier space, protecting the user from detection-type ninjutsu.


 * ↑→ Jiraiya crawls out of the barrier space inside the stomach of the diving toad. This is the moment one needs to be most careful for detection-type ninjutsu, but...

The body is as flat as thin paper Pulling the strings to their heart's content through the shadow!!


 * ↓ While the technique is in effect, the victim is temporarily paralysed and serves as the user's shield!!


 * ← By taking a deep breath, the ultra-thin body expands again. The victim's temporary paralysis is also cancelled.

After putting chakra into the victim's shadow, the user makes their body as flat as possible. Then, by becoming one with the shadow, this technique temporarily snatches away the control over the victim's mind and body. The user has to hold their breath, but they can talk through the victim. As soon as the user resumes breathing, the technique is cancelled and their body retakes it original thickness.

A sticky bullet, overwhelming those unprepared A hell of movement-restricting oil!!

A technique that changes chakra prepared inside the body into oil and spits it out as a huge mass. When this extremely sticky oil touches the target, their entire body is covered, preventing them from moving. Furthermore, if a Fire Release technique is thrown at the target after this technique is used, they will be enveloped in flames in an instant.


 * →↓ The "Oil Bullet" covers Konan's body, making it stick!! Because it is oil, simply washing it away with just water won't be easy...!!

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.


 * → It is an emergency measure for when one's ninja tools have run out, but if used by an expert, it becomes a powerful weapon!!


 * ← The accumulation of time and effort put into the paper raises the sharpness to the utmost limits.

 * User: Kakashi Hatake

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

Kakashi's original dōjutsu, released from the Mangekyō 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 defence is possible. No matter what, the space will distort and draw the target in.


 * → One glare with the Mangekyō Sharingan. The location and size of the barrier can be specified at will.


 * ↓ The aim is a little off the mark, hitting the arm... Nevertheless, that part of the arm is pulled apart into small pieces and sent to another dimension in an instant...!!


 * ↑ 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 is a dreadful technique that, with skilled use, can even pull an entire human being into another dimension.

'The scenery becomes twisted. And after that———!!'

The trap created by great power

The Mangekyō Sharingan is a dōjutsu 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.


 * ↑ 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.

Karasu Bunshin no Jutsu (p. 242)

 * Ninjutsu, C-rank, Supplementary
 * User: Uchiha Itachi

A human-shaped servant is created for get-togethers, inheriting his master's powers!!

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.


 * →↓ The dozens of crows come together to form the body of a clone. When the chakra projected by the user is severed, the crows disperse.

A chakra shield used in the puppetry art. A mechanism inside the puppet opens its arms into a couple of segments, through which the user radiates their chakra. The chakra spreads out like a thin film and turns into a protective sheet, preventing all physical attacks and keeping the user safeguarded...!!


 * ← Chakra threads are still let through, so the user is still able to flow chakra to their puppets.

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 soul of the deceased. 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


 * ↑ While the technique is invoked, the released chakra shines pale-blue!!


 * ↑ In case one's own chakra is insufficient, a third party can assist.

—The Feelings of Remorse That Triggered the Creation of a Kinjutsu!!—

One's Own Life Reincarnation was originally a technique developed to give a soul to the puppets of Sasori's parents. Underlying that were the feelings of sorrow for a child wrapped up in battle, carrying the future on his shoulders...


 * ↓ Chiyo's intention was to give up her own life so she could give back to her grandson Sasori the warmth of his parents...

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 definite 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, moulded into various forms, gives rise to a giant explosion by yelling "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 variety of Explosive Clay, all with different effects and scope.


 * ← He can easily use the "mouths" in either of his hands, but he uses the left one the most.


 * ↑ 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, surprise 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●
 * ↑ Deidara himself calls this his "pride". The explosive power is especially great, capable of even destroying a village!

It is a simple type, dropped down from the sky, but when only considering explosive power, it boasts the highest level. The scale and beauty of the explosion 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, modelled after Deidara himself, ruptures, extremely small bombs are released and scattered across a wide range. When these nano-sized bombs —impossible to be seen with ordinary human eyes— are inhaled, they will set themselves everywhere inside the body. The countless small explosions occurring 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!!


 * ← Using the blast of the figure's explosion, the tiny bombs are scattered across a vast range!!

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 copied perfectly by a duplicate body that suddenly appears and attacks!! Because the double has a fixed amount of stamina, it is 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.


 * ↑→ 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!?

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!


 * ↑← The lightning is formed into the shape of the legendary divine beast Kirin and used to attack the target! This light-speed attack is impossible to evade. The enemy will be obliterated before they can even blink!!

This air defence technique creates a giant shield, suspended in mid-air, 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"...!


 * ↑ 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!!


 * ← The Chidori flows through the blade and into the enemy's body. The muscles hit by the electrical current go stiff, making it impossible to move!!

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

This technique summons a, living on Mt. Myōboku, and imprisons the enemy within its stomach. The shop 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 ryō ," the visiting target is instead drunk up themselves...!!


 * ↓ From the moment the cancellation hand seal is performed, it takes only a few seconds for the shop toad to return to its original, small shape...!!


 * ↑ As soon as the hand seal 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 shop toad has gulped down the enemy and returned to its original shape, it quietly takes its leave on account of "closing up shop".

Perfect capture!!

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

A defensive wall that waits with firm pose and open mouth to gulp down every attack—— The Rashōmon that is supplied in threefold by Orochimaru's physical defensive 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 Rashōmon in an instant, while just one consumes a massive amount of chakra... Being able to use this ultimate absolute defence 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...


 * ← The unique absolute gates, called out from the depths of the Earth, make Orochimaru swell up with self-confidence, no matter what the circumstances.

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

This is a kind of "ninja tool summon" 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.


 * ↑ 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!!


 * ↑ 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.

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 concentrated 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 surprise attack. It can be said that this technique has exceedingly many practical uses.

While Pain is relaying the members' thoughts, they can still use varying techniques.

This jump uses the entire body as a spring, by amassing power through taking a posture where the back of the body falls down!

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.


 * ↑→ Inside the barrier, using any kind of physical attack to try and destroy something is folly, as it will only lead to injury.

Konoha One Hundred Leafs Collection ~ Number Forty-One

—Overtaking the barrier with two platoons—

To break into an enemy base protected by a Five Seal Barrier, it is best to have two four-man platoons. One party goes to cancel the four fuda, 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.


 * → Breaking in as soon as the barrier is released!! Not giving the enemy the time to come up with a counter-plan...!!

Using a chakra scalpel, the affected part is cut open, then the toxin is drawn out, while the injury is simultaneously treated. This technique is considered extremely difficult, even among medical ninjutsu. Usually, after treatment with this technique, an antidote or other medicine is used for a complete recovery.

During the Great Shinobi World War, Tsunade proposed including a medical ninja with every platoon. However, because realising that idea would require a vast amount of time, it was rejected. In reality, being a medical ninja demands a variety of skills and knowledge of the human body and medicine, in addition to delicate chakra control. Nowadays, the training system used has increased the number of medical ninja. Still, people who have completely mastered the techniques are still scarce. As they are still hard to come by, these skills are very precious.

A needle hell of despair, created from poisonous Iron Sand!!

By combining two high-density Iron Sand masses with opposing magnetic fields, the magnetic force increases immediately, and the repellent forces of the magnetic fields scatter the Iron Sand across a vast range. Because the paths of the Iron Sand branch off irregularly, it's difficult to get a complete overview. The Iron Sand is drenched in poison, so even one scratch can become a fatal wound. Furthermore, even if the branches are evaded successfully, the target will lose their path of retreat, allowing the real body to attack next! A dreadful evil power, filled with trap after trap!!

The air is filled with a fine-weaved network of Iron Sand needles!!


 * ↑ The poison-drenched jet-black Iron Sand needles turn the world in front of the target's eyes into a picture of Hell.


 * → Even if the needles and poison are avoided, the Third Kazekage is waiting to attack. When the enemy is stuck in that situation, there is nothing more to do then wait imminent death...

Gathering enormous volumes of Iron Sand and compressing them into high-density shapes! As the hardness is greatly increased, gigantic steel-like weapons can be created in an instant...! Because the source is Iron Sand, the shapes can be whatever the user wants. When it is tapered off into a sharp point like a triangular spindle-shape, it becomes a "giant spear". When the area of contact is increased by shaping it like a solid rectangle, it becomes a difficult to evade "giant iron hammer". By taking into account the opponent type and battle arena terrain, the best attack shape can be selected. Naturally, because the Iron Sand has a strong magnetic field, the opponent cannot use metal weapons or tools.


 * ↓ With such weight, even the bedrock is easily broken through and shattered into small pieces!! Even if such an attack is evaded, the unstable foothold allows for even more attacks!!

 * ←↑ The Iron Sand, suspended in mid-air, is changed into solid shapes in an instant. If the enemy is a moment too late in judging the situation, it will already be impossible for them to escape——!!

This gunshot-like attack uses Iron Sand, hardened into microscopic grains, to attack simultaneously across a vast range. The bullets are so fast, they're difficult to see. From the moment the user has finished preparing the attack, evading it will be extremely difficult...!! Furthermore, the user can also use an attack pattern where the Iron Sand bullets are shaped into sharp needles, increasing their ability wound or kill the enemy. Since the Iron Sand carries magnetic force and is also drenched in poison, defending against this technique is almost impossible. This technique is especially threatening to puppet users, since the puppets can be made completely unable to fight.

An enormous quantity of flowing sand envelops the enemy from every direction like a raging, surging sea! Using ordinary sand, a perfectly airtight space is created, in which the enemy is captured; a capturing ninjutsu is characteristic to Gaara. Since the sand's speed, hardness, and scope depends on the amount of chakra that is poured into it, it can be adjusted to match the target's size and special characteristics. Running on the ground, or flying in the air — Anyone who becomes Gaara's enemy is awaiting a fate of certain capture. Also, even if the target manages to escape from the sand's prison, an attack like Sand Binding Coffin can be used immediately, creating a two-fold set-up.

Unlike the other techniques that use the hands on the palms of his hands, this technique bites the clay with the mouth on his chest. It kneads chakra directly from the meridians of the heart and keeps doing it without interruption until the moment of the explosion. In other words, the explosion begins inside the body. While life's radiance is released, the user's soul, together with their surroundings, are completely sublimated.

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.


 * ↑ Sake flows from the gourd, taking on the shape of a sword and transforming into the Totsuka Sword! The souls absorbed by the sword are also sealed in there.

In his left and right hands are the unparalleled Sacred Treasures of miraculous efficacy

The Totsuka Sword

When the target's location has been discovered, the tongue extends with terrifying speed. With it whip-like flexibility, it ties up the target and dissolves it with a highly acidic mucus released from the warts.


 * ↑→ In contrast to Fukasaku's Fighting Tongue Slash, Shima's tongue is highly flexible!! The captured target is dissolved with a highly acidic mucus while still alive.

Myōboku into his body and by borrowing their power, his body absorbs a great amount of nature energy. By kneading this with his own chakra, he gains the ability to use "senjutsu", rapidly increasing the level of all techniques, be it ninjutsu, taijutsu, or genjutsu!! By uniting with the Two Great Toad Sages into one body, they can cooperate like a Trinity. This is certainly the domain of Sages.

When one can use puppets with transcending skill, one can even manipulate living bodies!!


 * ↑ The origins of this technique lie on the battlefield. When a puppet user's puppets where all destroyed, they would begin using corpses. To perform this technique with a living person requires both parties to trust each other deeply.

A puppet performance technique where chakra threads are attached to various spots on a person's body; the head, torso, both arms, and both legs. The person being manipulated by gains the ability to not only use their own techniques, but the skills of the puppeteer as well...!!

Chidori Eisō (p. 283)

 * Ninjutsu, A-rank, Offensive, Short to mid-range (0–10m)
 * User: Sasuke Uchiha

A piercing spear of lightning, composing a song of death!!

The original Chidori gained its power by shaping it into a form sufficient for an electrical discharge and using it together with one's own "thrust". This technique uses shape transformation to form the original Chidori into a spear-shape, adapting it for mid-range attacks. Although it's less powerful than the Chidori, it's increased range means there is less of a risk to the user. It also has the advantage of being able to be used for surprise attacks and capturing.


 * ↑ With the Chidori shaped into a spear, the enemy's body is pierced. Furthermore, by using shape transformation to turn it into a radiating shape, a final blow can be dealt.

Chidori Senbon (p. 283)

 * Ninjutsu, A-rank, Offensive, Short to mid-range (0–10m)
 * User: Sasuke Uchiha

Assaulting the enemy with a Chidori, shaped into flock of thousands of needles!!

This is also a variety of shape transformation of the Chidori. The same technique as the pinnacle of Lightning nature, it is specialised in more speed, by being transformed into countless sharp senbon, all aimed and fired at the enemy. As this flock of dazzling needles soars, the chakra gives off a sound like "chichichi," really making it seem like a thousand birds! It can become even more effective by using it together with the Sharingan, allowing one to precisely shoot for the enemy's vitals.


 * ↑ By increasing the amount of chakra used, the number of senbon also increases!

 * Ninjutsu, A-rank, Offensive, Short range (0–5m)
 * User: Sasuke Uchiha

A Chidori flapping its wings into every direction A profusion of purple lightning, giving both offence and defence at the same time!!


 * → The body of the person touched by the Chidori will misinterpret the Lightning nature as "electrical signals from the nerves," making its muscles contract. This causes the body to involuntarily go stiff, while at the same time receiving damage.

The one who approaches this body will be attacked all over!!

This ninjutsu makes practical use of the Chidori by extending its attack range, in order to make use of the Lightning nature's special characteristic of "temporarily making the muscles of the touched person go stiff," and attempt to enfold multiple enemies. By releasing the Chidori in every direction, an electrical discharge flows from one's entire body. This allows one to attack everyone within a specific range. Also, when using this attack on a great number of enemies at once, it also effectively doubles as an instant defence.

Imitating life, the beasts move to the will put into the brush!!

The moment the brush, through which chakra is flown, is removed, the drawn images will leap from the paper and act according to the user's will!! There are few techniques in existence that have so many different uses. During the many special missions given out by Root, there are many situations where one must take spontaneous or independent action. This technique, characteristic to Sai, which allows one to adapt to the circumstances of any confrontation, must be a lifeline.


 * ↑ The figures are filled with the feeling of life, even though the source of the drawings has no emotions.


 * ↑ He doesn't panic, even in emergencies, and quickly finishes his drawing!


 * ↑ The shaft of the scroll is prepared with ink and a small brush. Perfectly equipped to use this technique at all times.


 * → Riding the drawn "bird" through the sky has many uses from reconnaissance to high-speed travel.

The greatest feature of the ninja art Super Beast Imitating Drawing is that depending on the beast drawn, various effects can be obtained. If it's necessary to do reconnaissance from the sky, a bird can be drawn. For attacking from a distance, one can draw beasts of prey. Furthermore, if one draws a countless number of mice, it even becomes possible to perform an unworkable number of searches—— Depending on the user's ingenuity, this technique certainly is an all-purpose power.

On occasion flying through the sky or lurking in the darkness—— Changing freely to the circumstances of the mission!!


 * →↓ By drawing several pictures, the number of embodied beasts is also increased.


 * ← By not taking roads to travel, the "mice" are inconspicuous, making them the most suitable, not just for searches, but also for delivering information obtained from enemy camps to Konoha.


 * → After being drawn quickly, the "snakes" can be used as ropes to restrain someone. With the ability to soundlessly enter through even the smallest crevice, they can also be used for assassination purposes.

Chōji, after having grown to a gigantic size by using the Multi-Size Technique, brings down both his hand for a sure-kill hand slap...!! The weight and power of the hands are greatly increased because of the larger size, the muscles are activated with concentrated chakra, and the thickness has also increased. This gives this attack the power to even cave in the earth.


 * ↑→ With so much chakra that it becomes visible, Chōji's palms are made as massive as an iron hammer...!!

Furthermore, the destructive power of human bullet attacks is increased, making this a great all-purpose technique. The amount of techniques that can break through the areas hardened by the Earth Spear are close to zero, not including its undeniable weak point: Lightning Release ninjutsu.

The "Wind" sharpens the "spiral," turning it into a blade who's one hit means certain death!!

"Extreme"—— Certainly, that's the most appropriate word for this technique. Adding "Wind" nature manipulation to the Rasengan, already boasting tremendous destructive power by having raised shape transformation to its utmost limits...!! With this sharp blade of wind, the killing power is drastically increased...!! Its weak point is that one needs to get close to and a hit. On the other hand, there is no-one who can withstand a direct hit. Even so, currently it's only 50% completed. The destructive power it will have once completed is unimaginable!!

The technique left behind by a great hero is brought to a new height——!!


 * ↑ The completed Rasengan is infused with "Wind" chakra!!

The Gale Palm as just a isolated attack has the power to easily knock over a human. However, it's true value comes from using it in an attack together with projectile weapons like shuriken or kunai. The speed with which they fly through the air, the power with which they hit, and their ability to wound or even kill are all increased several times!!


 * ↑ The sudden acceleration of the Paper Shuriken gives them the power to go straight through the enemy with one hit!!

—The Solution to the Common Traits of Genjutsu—


 * ← It's possible to master by training. Even those who don't use genjutsu will want to learn this.

As there are different types of genjutsu —those that are invoked using hand seals and those that make use of dōjutsu like the Sharingan— so are there different ways of dealing with them.

Against dōjutsu: The general rule is to fight with two against one. When one person falls victim to the technique, their comrade can attack the user and cancel it.

Against genjutsu (other then dōjutsu): Either intentionally disarrange the flow of chakra inside ones body, or have a third party disturb it.

Because learning it requires many long years of training, the husband and wife Great Toad Sage are the only one's with the skills to perform it.

With four toads standing motionless on all sides, both dream and reality become bound by hand and foot!!

Inside the genjutsu world, the target is surrounded North, East, South, and West, by giant toads, imprisoning them in a barrier. The four unmoving toads won't lift the complete binding until the user gives the order. All that is left to do is to strike the finishing blow in the real world.


 * → Mt. Myōboku's secret stone swords are driven into the targets' hearts like a wedge. The targets are finally released into the realm of the dead.

The wonder of an infinite number of snake blades squirming and slithering over the ground!!

A wave of swarming snakes spreads from the mouth——!!


 * ↑→↓ Snakes as far as the eye can see ensnare the enemy, rendering them powerless. After that, the motionless enemy is pierced violently with poison fangs!!

The countless number of summoned snakes crawl out of Orochimaru's mouth and shunt down the enemy... In front of such overwhelming numbers, a true "wall of snakes," defence and evasion mean nothing. The enemy can do nothing but become buried by the snakes. Furthermore, when the inexhaustibly crawling snakes gather, they become a defensive wall, blocking any kind of attack!!

Just like with the Four Pillar Prison Technique, the size and shape of the building are taken from the user Yamato's imagination or memories. By placing fuda around the Four Pillar House, one creates a barrier, making it impossible for the enemy to detect it and allowing on to "camp" in peace!!


 * ↑→ As soon as the handseal is made, trees break through the ground. In order to build the house immediately, they are already prepared to act like timber.

A two-story building adorned with the Konoha symbol!!

Then, by activating the trees, stimulating them to grow rapidly, they lengthen at high speed and fork into many branches.

A solid barrier that closes up from left and right!!

This technique uses chakra to activate the roots in the ground and, using Yamato as a reference point, makes wooden pillars appear from left and right. The wooden pillars join together in a dome-shape with Yamato at the centre. This process can be used to catch the enemy in a pincer attack!! Also, in case one confronts the enemy at a short distance, the enemy can be locked up inside the dome, setting the situation for a one-on-one fight. Furthermore, it functions as a easy shelter against the enemy's long-distance attacks, like shuriken and kunai. It certainly is an all-purpose wall.


 * ↑ While locking up the enemy, it also acts like a protective wall...!! Since its size can be adjusted at will, it has the ability to save a great number of people!!

100 Leafs Collection #46: The Technique Falsely Similar to the Shadow Clones
Konoha One Hundred Leafs Collection ~ Number Forty-Six

—The Technique Falsely Similar to the Shadow Clones—

"The information the clone possesses will be collected by the real body." This basic concept of the Shadow Clone Technique also applies to the Wood Clone Technique. However, the chakra-composed Shadow Clone and the cell-based Wood Clone are completely distinct techniques.


 * ← By directly touching the Wood Clone with his hand, Yamato absorbs the information it gathered and changes the shape of the clone.


 * ↓ When it is changed into a seed, it becomes a transmission device that resonates with Yamato's chakra.

The Wood Clone is made up of Yamato's own cells, transformed into vegetation. Because of this, when it is changed into a seed and taken into the body, it can be used as a "transmission device". This and all other uses make this technique extremely convenient.

'An eight-headed colossal serpent spanning eight mountains. It's wicked excellence is the reincarnation of long-standing resentment!!'

Captured inside Sasuke Uchiha, Orochimaru took his chance when Sasuke had used up his "suppressing chakra" to use the power of his final moments and unleash this secret technique. Using the "power of reincarnation" possessed by the White Snake as an intermediary, Orochimaru appeared out of Sasuke's Cursed Seal, transformed into a white snake white snake with eight heads and eight tails. Trampling down the Uchiha hideout by merely crawling on the scales of his abdomen, this could only be Orochimaru's greatest, strongest technique; the incarnation of his far-reaching tenacity...!!


 * → Boasting a giant body, even larger than that of Manda, who is feared as the "strongest colossal serpent," it has a sinister appearance as it bares it ferocious fangs. Having transcended the "Orochi," it became like a "Dragon God"...!!

Manifested is the single desire of the Orochi...!!

That ambition hasn't broken yet!!

No matter how far he crosses over the threshold of death, Orochimaru will find a way to "reincarnate". The origin of this tenacity is the power of the "White Snake" that governs "good luck and rebirth." After many years of research, Orochimaru obtained the reincarnation ability of the "White Snake".


 * →↓ The symbol of "reincarnation" that he held in his hands in his younger days gulped him down into an obsession with "immortality" and a "darkness" called insanity.

The white beast king sprints through the wasteland battlefield!!

This technique uses chakra to temporarily enhance the head's metabolism and manipulate the hair that grew longer as a result of this. There is also chakra flowing through the lengthened hair, making its hardness comparable to that of steel wire. By thickly bundling the hair, its strength is further increased, also increasing its destructive power.

Its most distinctive feature being the ripple pattern spreading out over the eyeballs, the Rinnegan are called the "most exalted eyes" among the, the other two being the Sharingan and Byakugan. Admired as being able to bring forth all ninjutsu, the holder of these eyes can completely master the five elemental nature transformations that form the basis of ninjutsu. It is said that in times when the world is in disorder, this person is sent down from the heavens to become either a "God of Creation" who will calm the world, or a "Destroyer" who reduce everything to nothing.

 * ↓ Sharing their field of vision, the Six Realms of Pain boast a cooperation leaves absolutely no gaps!!


 * ←↑ The Rinnegan wielding Pain not only have a "shared field of vision," but also have "the same chakra-disturbing weapons" and "immortal bodies".

However, if these are part of the powers of the Rinnegan is still a mystery.
