Drawing his two swords together, Raiga spin the blades to generate a disk of lightning which will then pour down to cover his body and his swords. This electricity will envelope his body in a protective armor which will harm anyone who dares strike him directly.
Raikiri - Lightning Edge
	Viz Translation: Lightning Blade Character Use: Hatake Kakashi Rank: S Range: Close (0m ~ 5m) Type: Attack Note: Listed by different rank than Chidori in official databook.
Chidori (a.k.a. Raikiri) is a Ninjutsu technique developed by Hatake Kakashi utilizing the Lightning Element. Chidori allows him to cut through any foe. Later, Uchiha Sasuke used his Sharingan and the training of Kakashi to also learn the technique. It was given the nickname Raikiri after it was said Kakashi used the technique to cut a lightning bolt in two. Chidori is used for assassination purposes. Activating the body to focus chakra to the hand, Kakashi and Sasuke's hand become enveloped by an electrical force. This force is their chakra altered in nature to an electrical current. By altering the shape of the force, similar to an electrical discharge, they can decide the power and range of the attack. After concentrating all the chakra into the arm, Kakashi and Sasuke use their quickness and the power of the thrust from the chakra to pierce any object with the extended forearm. Because their opponent can easily counter the attack, it requires a Sharingan user to make the technique worthwhile. The Sharingan will allow them to predict any moves their opponent decides to make and send their strike home into the target. Due to the high speed, the force emits a sound like a thousand birds chirping which gave the technique its name. Because of the great amount of chakra needed to utilize the technique, the technique can only be used so many times during the day.

He will then begin to spin in place forming a whirling vortex of wind and electricity. The vortex will take on the form of a dragon and strike out against his opponent. Even if the attack doesn't directly connect with his foe, the lightning can jump from the vortex to hit a nearby target.
Raiton Kage Bunshin no Jutsu - Lightning Element Shadow Clone Technique
	Character Use: Hatake Kakashi Rank: Unknown Range: - Type: Supplementary
Raiton Kage Bunshin no Jutsu is a Ninjutsu technique that utilizes lightning to create a Kage Bunshin clone. Because it is a Kage Bunshin, the Raiton version shares the ability to interact with the environment due to it having physical substance. This allows the clone to carry out limited attacks on its target. If the Raiton Kage Bunshin is injured, the clone will revert into its natural lightning state. Like in other Lightning Element attacks, should the target come into contact with the electricity, they will be momentarily stunned.

Ranshinshou is a Ninjutsu technique used by the Sannin Tsunade. Changing the chakra in her hand into an electricity, Tsunade can create an electric field to disrupt her targets nervous system. Because the brain and body communicate using electrical impulses, Tsunade can use the field to disrupt her targets ability to move. What results is commands to move one body part being relayed to another, making it near impossible for them to move unless they have high skill and understanding of the body.
Rasen Chou Tarengan - Spiral Ultra Multi-Spheres

Rasengan - Spiral Sphere
	Character Use: Uzumaki Naruto, Jiraiya, Yondaime Hokage, Hatake Kakashi, Sarutobi Konohamaru Rank: A Range: Close (0m ~ 5m) Type: Attack
Rasengan was a ninjutsu technique developed over the span of three years by the Fourth Hokage. The technique was taught to his sensei Jiraiya, who then passed it on to the young ninja Naruto years later. Like Kage Bunshin, Naruto would adopt the technique as a signature move and make it all his own. The technique is unlike other jutsu in that it does not require any handseals, it just relied on the ninja's ability to mold chakra. The ninja concentrates a contained, fast, rotating sphere of chakra in the palm of their hand which can cause much destructive impact. Thus the technique was pure shape manipulation of chakra, unlike most elemental techniques which are shape and nature manipulation. Hatake Kakashi stated the technique was unfinished for this reason, as the Fourth Hokage did not get a chance to add some form of nature manipulation to it and it was even unclear whether it is even possible for an elemental nature to be added. Naruto dedicated himself to this task though, in the hopes of fusing his Wind elemental nature with the Rasengan's shape manipulation. He eventually succeeded after long and hard training, which took advantage of Kage Bunshin's memory absorption capabilities. He was able to finish the jutsu in the span of a few weeks what would have taken a normal ninja numerous years. The new Wind Element version was thus named Fuuton: Rasengan. Learning Rasengan: To teach Naruto the Rasengan, Jiraiya broke the training down into three parts. With a foundation of water and tree walking, Jiraiya wanted Naruto to create a flow of chakra from his palm and rotate it. By holding a water balloon in his hand, the released chakra would cause the water inside to move. The first act is to gather and maintain chakra in ones hand; this uses skills gained in the tree climbing exercise. Next the ninja needs to release a constant amount of chakra as learned in the water walking exercise. Finally the ninja needs to push and rotate the water inside the water balloon. Step One: Jiraiya thus broke down the training into three steps. First Naruto had to rotate the water and break the water balloon; this step emphasizes rotation. The rotating chakra must spin in proper synch with the body. When the body and spirit energy mix to form chakra, it rotates clockwise or counter clockwise within the body of the ninja. The ninja will need to spin the chakra within the palm in the same direction it does in the body to attain maximum efficiency. Naruto had trouble popping the balloon with the first step, because he was unable to make his chakra rotate randomly with only one hand. To make up for this issue, he learned to utilize his right hand to release the chakra, and then use this hand to strike the left balloon hand multiple times to rotate the water inside. This caused the water to rotate multiple ways, creating enough instability to break the balloon. Step Two: The second step involves breaking a rubber ball, much like the water balloon but about 100 times more difficult to pop. This step emphasizes power. Because the ball lacks water, it is more difficult to imagine the spinning chakra inside. Naruto had the most difficulty with this step. No matter how much chakra he pumped into the ball it would not pop, causing more and more pain in his hands. He then grasped he would need to build and keep storing the chakra until he could bear the pain no more, and then begin the rotation process. Doing it in this fashion allowed him to pierce the skin and deflate the ball. This step is hard because there was little for Naruto to concentrate on. To rectify this, Jiraiya had Naruto concentrate on a mark made in the palm of the hand. Naruto had difficulty concentrating on the spot until he remembered back to the leaf forehead training his teacher Iruka taught years before. By placing a leaf to the forehead, a ninja would have to properly concentrate on it alone and mold the chakra to keep it affixed to the forehead. Naruto modified his palm mark to look like a leaf. He then focused and concentrated his chakra to this spot and the ball exploded! Step Three: The third step involves quickly rotating the chakra randomly in a balloon full of air. This causes the chakra to form a spherical shape akin to a small typhoon. Though even more power and rotation is used than in step two, the balloon itself will not move or pop due to the precise chakra control. Using 100% of the skills used in steps one and two, the ninja is to create an imaginary layer to contain the rotating chakra and compress the chakra within that layer. By retaining this power within the hand alone, the power will not disperse, it will become faster and more concentrated and reach its ultimate destructive power. Naruto had trouble controlling 100% of his power with just two hands and had to rely on a Kage Bunshin clone to help contain the rotating chakra within the spherical layer. Final: Mastering Normal Rasengan: Naruto would later advance his skills, giving him greater control of his chakra during the Rasengan creation process. Naruto would also go on to further make the jutsu his own, by creating a new variation of the Rasengan called Oodama Rasengan, this "Big Ball" version relies on a Kage Bunshin, but packs an even more powerful impact than the normal Rasengan. Creating an Elemental Rasengan: Naruto's drive to stay on equal footing with Uchiha Sasuke would cause him to take the next step in developing the Rasengan. Upon speaking with Hatake Kakashi, Naruto realized that Kage Bunshin transfer their memory back to the ninja upon dispersal. Because Naruto had access to vast quantities of chakra, he could use Tajuu Kage Bunshin fairly extensively. This would allow each Naruto to work on the jutsu, disperse and then give the rest the updated information. This allowed Naruto to use thousands of clones and greatly reduce the time needed to figure out how to successfully alter the nature of the chakra into his Wind element type. What would have taken Naruto alone possibly decades to do; he managed to do in the span of about a week. It is unclear whether any other elements could successfully be added to the Rasengan shaped chakra. With enough time and training, a ninja with enough control over an element type may be able to do so. Wind Element Training Step One: The Wind Element is known for its ability to cut and sever most anything, making it an excellent offensive oriented ability for close and mid-ranged battles. The first step in wind training is placing a leaf between ones palms and then cutting it in half with only ones chakra. To manipulate ones chakra it helps if the ninja imagines their chakra splitting into two and then grinding back across themselves. This allows the two chakra fields to essentially sharpen the other into a very thin and sharp cutting edge. Wind Element Training Step Two: The second step involves cutting running water with all the Wind chakra the ninja can manage. With this the ninja has to create and produce massive amounts of elemental chakra nearly instantaneously, just as they would in an actual jutsu. To successfully cut the water, the ninja must ensure their Wind chakra remains in the body long enough after molding it. Wind Element Training Step Three: The final step in Wind training is to spatially recompose your newly created elemental chakra. This allows the ninja to determine the strength and scope of their attack. The normal Rasengan itself is pure spatial recomposition of chakra. To combine the two is not easy, as the number of ninja who can do both simultaneously is limited. To do so requires a natural innate talent. It was this step which was too difficult even for the Fourth Hokage. The Fourth intended to add his own elemental chakra into the highly developed spatial recomposition of the Rasengan to create a Rank S or even higher rank of difficulty jutsu. This task proved very difficult for Naruto, extensively requiring Tenzou's Bijuu control powers. According to Naruto this task asked him to do two things which couldn't be done alone. To that end he decided to use two clones, one to help with Rasengan formation and the other to help in Wind element creation. This allowed him to finally master the technique, without the apparent need for other clones.
Rasen Rengan - Dual Spiral Spheres
	Character Use: Uzumaki Naruto Rank: Unknown Note: Senjutsu Range: Close (0m ~ 5m) Type: Attack
Rasen Rengan is a Ninjutsu technique used by Uzumaki Naruto. Based upon the normal Rasengan, this version allows Naruto to create and wield a Rasengan in the palm of each hand after entering Sennin Mode. The dual nature of the attack thus allows double the damage to be inflicted on his target.
Rasen Shuriken - Spiral Shuriken
	Character Use: Uzumaki Naruto Rank: S Range: Close (0m ~ 5m) Type: Attack
Fuuton • Rasen Shuriken is a Ninjutsu technique utilizing the Wind Element. Rasen Shuriken was developed by Uzumaki Naruto out of the original Fuuton • Rasengan. This spiraling Wind attack has only been seen in a half completed state. But even in this incomplete form, it has wrought massive destruction. With the aid of clones Naruto will form Rasengan and add the Wind Element. Though called "shuriken" the attack is not thrown. The trick name along with the aid of clones who act as a feint allow Naruto to get in close and strike his opponent. The attack itself can only be maintained in his hands for a few seconds time. Rasen Shuriken is formed by enumerable miniscule small blades which slice into every cell of his target, severing the chakra circulatory channels connecting all the vital points on the body. Once it connects the highly dangerous attack will envelop the target in a massive sphere of destruction. The attack hits the opponent in such a way that it is even beyond the abilities of the Sharingan to copy. Due to its channel severing nature, the result on the body resembles a fast acting poison more than an outright attack. Unfortunately this same damage is done to Naruto's arm. For that reason Tsunade declared it forbidden. Mastering Rasen Shuriken: After traveling to Mount Myouboku, Naruto underwent Senjutsu training with the toads. Senjutsu training allows ninja to absorb the natural energy around them, and then transform it into chakra for their own use. As a result of this training, Naruto was able to create a Rasen Shuriken which could maintain its form upon leaving his hand. This helps avoid the damage it normally causes to his arm when he strikes an opponent with it when held in his hand. This new variation also increased the destructive nature of the attack, completely tearing anyone caught up in the attack to shreds. This new variation can also increase in size upon coming into contact with his target.
