7 Super Beast imitation drawing

Can be used to create mounts or tracking animals, among other things

• Users: Inojin Yamanaka, Sai

Sai can be a hard character to like at first, especially with how antagonistic he is Naruto. However, the Nine-Tailed Jinchuuriki's charm won him over, allowing him to smile for the first time as he realized he had friends he could rely on.

Sai's signature jutsu involves breathing life into animals drawn on his scrolls. While it is useful in combat, Sai can also conjure beasts that allow humans to ride winged creatures and track certain ninjas with other suitable beasts.

6 Transformation Jutsu

Helps the user to enhance their appearance or impersonate others

• Users: Tsunade Senju, Sakura Uchiha, Naruto Uzumaki

The transformation is something fans will be familiar with given its prominence throughout the series. Naruto's unique take on the technique has become iconic for PG-13 reasons, while other characters have also used the transformation jutsu to great effect.

Akamaru transformed into Kiba to give Naruto double trouble, Gamabunta transformed into the Nine-Tailed Fox to capture Gaara's Shukaku form, and Tsunade always maintains a unique version of this jutsu to maintain her youth. It is a popular jutsu in the series that is mainly used for trickery.

5 Medical Ninjutsu

Healing is paramount in a profession where injuries are prevalent

• Users: Tsunade Senju, Hashirama Senju, Rin Nohara

The mission ninja go on is not easy, injuries and bruises are common in this profession. This is why a medical nin is mandatory in teams going on long and dangerous missions.

Sakura and Tsunade are the strongest medical nin in the series, using this technique to heal themselves and others. Tsunade boasts an impressive version of medical ninjutsu called creation regeneration, which is the ultimate regeneration technique that requires years of mastery to use. It heals wounds instantly, making it more applicable in combat than other forms of medical ninjutsu that are usually used to heal wounded enemies outside of battle.

4 Shadow Clone Jutsu

Useful in other ways than adding more bodies to the fight

• Users: Naruto Uzumaki, Itachi Uchiha, Kakashi Hatake

Naruto Uzumaki's signature jutsu is often used in battle, but it is far from the only use of this technique. Shadow Clone can multiply the user's ability to process information and learn techniques, making it one of the most useful cloning techniques in the series.

Without this technique, it would have been impossible for Naruto to master the Rasenshuriken in record time and locate Sasuke during their search. His mastery of this technique allows him to take his first steps towards becoming a fully developed ninja and becoming Hokage.

3 Izanami

A Genjutsu that forces the target to have a change of heart

• Users: Itachi Uchiha, Naori Uchiha

Izanami is one of the most powerful genjutsu in the entire series. It's only fitting that this ability can only be accessed by users of the Sharingan, an impressive dojutsu that is the best KKK Genkai in the series by a country mile.

Using Izanami, Itachi was able to trap Kabuto in a loop where he would experience repeated painful and humiliating deaths before he had a change of heart and accepted the truth deep in his heart. The appearance of this experiment is very convenient but helps Itachi stand out even more as the greatest shinobi. Naruto.

2 Kotomatsukami

One of the partnership's final abilities manipulates the target's memories

• Users: Danzo Shimura, Shisui Uchiha, Itachi Uchiha

Another Sharingan genjutsu that is as impressive as they come is Kotomatsukami, Shisui's ultimate jutsu that he can use to force a different reality on someone without his knowledge. The biggest reason why Danzo Shisui's eyes sparkle is because he wants to master this technique.

Shisui's best friend, Itachi, receives this powerful eye and uses it to try and convince Sasuke to see the light. Instead, this technique comes in clutch when Itachi needs to free himself from the Edo Tensei bond that binds him to Kabuto, allowing him to play with Orochimaru's staff and unleash the Edo Tensei technique, throwing a wrench into Akatsuki's war effort.

1 Eternal Tsukuyomi

Ultimate Genjutsu is to lure the entire world into confusion

• Users: Kaguya Otsutsuki, Madara Uchiha, Obito Uchiha

There aren't many genjutsu that fight battles, which speaks volumes when it comes to portraying the powers of Eternal Tsukuyomi. A Ten-Tails jinchuriki with the Rinne-Sharingan can activate this technique, using the moon to brainwash the entire world and force them into complete confusion with little or no fighting.

Although this jutsu is used during battle, the whole point of Eternal Tsukuyomi is to negate any conflict, making it the ultimate non-combat jutsu of the series. The promises of happiness brought by this collective delusion are false, so the heroes fight to escape this fate and save the world from Madara's diabolical plan.
