Genjutsu: Sharingan, one of the Sharingan's foundational abilities, was a "hypnotic genjutsu." Its power was terrifying, and its applications were remarkably diverse. This genjutsu could make someone fall into an illusion without realizing it, completely losing their sense of self and becoming subject to another's control.
Genjutsu: Rinnegan, meanwhile, was even more powerful. It could unleash an immensely potent genjutsu through the Rinnegan; with only a glance, it could easily control beings as formidable as the nine Tailed Beasts.
Among support-type ninjutsu, the Transformation Technique was an E-rank technique that allowed someone to turn into something else, most commonly another person. This technique was highly useful for infiltration, reconnaissance, and similar missions.
The Clone Technique was also an E-rank ninjutsu. It used chakra to create "afterimages." Though these afterimages could not attack like physical bodies, they could effectively disrupt an ordinary ninja's vision, buying valuable time and opportunities.
The Substitution Technique was likewise an E-rank ninjutsu. It allowed the user to instantly swap bodies with an animal or plant in order to evade an enemy's attack. It was an exceptionally practical survival technique.
The Manipulating Shuriken Technique was a D-rank ninjutsu. It used transparent threads to control shuriken, making their attacks more flexible and unpredictable.
Finally, Sharingan Windmill: Three-Bladed was a C-rank ninjutsu. To use it, one first tied threads to previously thrown kunai and shuriken as bait, while the true attack was hidden within the retrieved "third blade." This required the Sharingan wielder to possess keen perception and judgment in order to accurately grasp the enemy's movements.
Orochimaru Style: Body Replacement Technique was a highly distinctive substitution technique. Through shedding its skin, Orochimaru could escape from his original body. This substitution technique not only required superb skill and flexibility from Orochimaru, but also consumed a great deal of chakra.
