The Great Ball Rasengan is a technique created by Naruto Uzumaki while training in the time skip with Jiraiya, prior to the release of the Shippūden episodes. Although this technique requires Naruto to use a shadow clone, the result is a larger ball of condensed chakra that is much more powerful than a normal Rasengan. Naruto has only shown this jutsu once in the entire series. It is used in the fight against Itachi Uchiha in which Naruto lands a direct hit (with help from Kakashi Hatake using a shadow clone). It deals astounding damage to the area and the target but takes a lot out of Naruto (most likely due to the incredible amount of chakra used). Jiraiya himself has his own version of Great Ball Rasengan, the Super Great Ball Rasengan.

Later in the story, Naruto uses the Great Ball Rasengan again, this time using Natural Energy in the Hermit Mode, thus creating Hermit's Art: Great Ball Rasengan

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

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