The force of the rotation and the potency of the chakra create friction and can damage a person completely with their internal organs. The bigger the Rasengan, the greater damage it can cause to any shinobi. It is known that Minato saw the tailed beast bomb and got the idea of creating a Rasengan.<\/span><\/p>\n<div id=\"ez-toc-container\" class=\"ez-toc-v2_0_67_1 counter-hierarchy ez-toc-counter ez-toc-black ez-toc-container-direction\">\n<div class=\"ez-toc-title-container\">\n<p class=\"ez-toc-title ez-toc-toggle\" style=\"cursor: pointer\">Contents Overview<\/p>\n<span class=\"ez-toc-title-toggle\"><a href=\"#\" class=\"ez-toc-pull-right ez-toc-btn ez-toc-btn-xs ez-toc-btn-default ez-toc-toggle\" aria-label=\"Toggle Table of Content\"><span class=\"ez-toc-js-icon-con\"><span class=\"\"><span class=\"eztoc-hide\" style=\"display:none;\">Toggle<\/span><span class=\"ez-toc-icon-toggle-span\"><svg style=\"fill: #79d11b;color:#79d11b\" xmlns=\"http:\/\/www.w3.org\/2000\/svg\" class=\"list-377408\" width=\"20px\" height=\"20px\" viewBox=\"0 0 24 24\" fill=\"none\"><path d=\"M6 6H4v2h2V6zm14 0H8v2h12V6zM4 11h2v2H4v-2zm16 0H8v2h12v-2zM4 16h2v2H4v-2zm16 0H8v2h12v-2z\" fill=\"currentColor\"><\/path><\/svg><svg style=\"fill: #79d11b;color:#79d11b\" class=\"arrow-unsorted-368013\" xmlns=\"http:\/\/www.w3.org\/2000\/svg\" width=\"10px\" height=\"10px\" viewBox=\"0 0 24 24\" version=\"1.2\" baseProfile=\"tiny\"><path d=\"M18.2 9.3l-6.2-6.3-6.2 6.3c-.2.2-.3.4-.3.7s.1.5.3.7c.2.2.4.3.7.3h11c.3 0 .5-.1.7-.3.2-.2.3-.5.3-.7s-.1-.5-.3-.7zM5.8 14.7l6.2 6.3 6.2-6.3c.2-.2.3-.5.3-.7s-.1-.5-.3-.7c-.2-.2-.4-.3-.7-.3h-11c-.3 0-.5.1-.7.3-.2.2-.3.5-.3.7s.1.5.3.7z\"\/><\/svg><\/span><\/span><\/span><\/a><\/span><\/div>\n<nav><ul class='ez-toc-list ez-toc-list-level-1 ' ><li class='ez-toc-page-1 ez-toc-heading-level-2'><a class=\"ez-toc-link ez-toc-heading-1\" href=\"https:\/\/narutoexplained.com\/why-does-naruto-need-a-clone-for-rasengan\/#Why_Does_Naruto_Need_a_Clone_for_Rasengan\" title=\"Why Does Naruto Need a Clone for Rasengan?\">Why Does Naruto Need a Clone for Rasengan?<\/a><\/li><li class='ez-toc-page-1 ez-toc-heading-level-2'><a class=\"ez-toc-link ez-toc-heading-2\" href=\"https:\/\/narutoexplained.com\/why-does-naruto-need-a-clone-for-rasengan\/#Does_Naruto_Learn_calidad_boldenone_undecylenate_con_el_envio_to_Use_Rasengan_Without_a_Clone\" title=\"Does Naruto Learn calidad boldenone undecylenate con el envio to Use Rasengan Without a Clone?\">Does Naruto Learn calidad boldenone undecylenate con el envio to Use Rasengan Without a Clone?<\/a><\/li><li class='ez-toc-page-1 ez-toc-heading-level-2'><a class=\"ez-toc-link ez-toc-heading-3\" href=\"https:\/\/narutoexplained.com\/why-does-naruto-need-a-clone-for-rasengan\/#When_Does_Naruto_Learn_Rasengan_With_Clones\" title=\"When Does Naruto Learn Rasengan With Clones?\">When Does Naruto Learn Rasengan With Clones?<\/a><\/li><li class='ez-toc-page-1 ez-toc-heading-level-2'><a class=\"ez-toc-link ez-toc-heading-4\" href=\"https:\/\/narutoexplained.com\/why-does-naruto-need-a-clone-for-rasengan\/#Does_Naruto_Still_Need_Shadow_Clone_for_Rasengan\" title=\"Does Naruto Still Need Shadow Clone for Rasengan?\">Does Naruto Still Need Shadow Clone for Rasengan?<\/a><\/li><li class='ez-toc-page-1 ez-toc-heading-level-2'><a class=\"ez-toc-link ez-toc-heading-5\" href=\"https:\/\/narutoexplained.com\/why-does-naruto-need-a-clone-for-rasengan\/#Can_Naruto_Do_One_Handed_Jutsu\" title=\"Can Naruto Do One Handed Jutsu?\">Can Naruto Do One Handed Jutsu?<\/a><\/li><li class='ez-toc-page-1 ez-toc-heading-level-2'><a class=\"ez-toc-link ez-toc-heading-6\" href=\"https:\/\/narutoexplained.com\/why-does-naruto-need-a-clone-for-rasengan\/#When_Does_Naruto_Use_Rasengan_With_One_Hand\" title=\"When Does Naruto Use Rasengan With One Hand?\">When Does Naruto Use Rasengan With One Hand?<\/a><\/li><li class='ez-toc-page-1 ez-toc-heading-level-2'><a class=\"ez-toc-link ez-toc-heading-7\" href=\"https:\/\/narutoexplained.com\/why-does-naruto-need-a-clone-for-rasengan\/#Why_Doesnt_Naruto_Use_One_Hand_Rasengan\" title=\"Why Doesn\u2019t Naruto Use One Hand Rasengan?\">Why Doesn\u2019t Naruto Use One Hand Rasengan?<\/a><\/li><li class='ez-toc-page-1 ez-toc-heading-level-2'><a class=\"ez-toc-link ez-toc-heading-8\" href=\"https:\/\/narutoexplained.com\/why-does-naruto-need-a-clone-for-rasengan\/#Can_Konohamaru_Use_Rasengan_With_One_Hand\" title=\"Can Konohamaru Use Rasengan With One Hand?\">Can Konohamaru Use Rasengan With One Hand?<\/a><\/li><\/ul><\/nav><\/div>\n<h2><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Why_Does_Naruto_Need_a_Clone_for_Rasengan\"><\/span><strong>Why Does Naruto Need a Clone for Rasengan?<\/strong><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-2937\" src=\"https:\/\/narutoexplained.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/02\/naruto-rasengan-gif-7-1.gif\" alt=\"\" width=\"500\" height=\"280\" title=\"\"><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">What&#8217;s mostly ignored about Rasengan in Naruto is that<strong> it is very tough to learn<\/strong> because of the directions the chakra is required to rotate. The proper term used in the series is, \u201c<\/span><b>Changing the Form of the Chakra<\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">\u201d. Every shinobi has a definite chakra form and flow to one particular direction. The process to master Rasengan requires one to rotate their chakra in all directions rapidly. This requires an enormous amount of focus.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Naruto could rotate his chakra rapidly towards his flow of chakra. But he failed to do it clockwise and anti-clockwise at the same time. While his training, he sees a cat playing with a water balloon rotating it from left to right and vice versa causing enormous friction.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">This is when he gets an idea of using two hands to rotate the chakra. One hand for one flow of movement and the other hand for the opposite movement causing rapid chakra movement. This is when Naruto decides to use a clone to achieve multiple rotations. Whereas, Minato, Jiraiya, and <a href=\"https:\/\/narutoexplained.com\/how-did-kakashi-get-his-sharingan\/\">Kakashi<\/a> have enough experience and focus to rotate their chakra in several directions using one hand.<\/span><\/p>\n<hr \/>\n<h2><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Does_Naruto_Learn_calidad_boldenone_undecylenate_con_el_envio_to_Use_Rasengan_Without_a_Clone\"><\/span><b>Does Naruto Learn <a style=\"text-decoration: none; color: #333;\" title=\"calidad boldenone undecylenate con el envio\" href=\"https:\/\/anabol-es.com\/comprar-en-espana\/calidad-boldenone-undecylenate-con-el-envio\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">calidad boldenone undecylenate con el envio<\/a> to Use Rasengan Without a Clone?<\/b><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<figure id=\"attachment_2142\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-2142\" style=\"width: 1361px\" class=\"wp-caption alignnone\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"wp-image-2142 size-full\" src=\"https:\/\/narutoexplained.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/04\/Naruto-Uzumaki-1.webp\" alt=\"Why Does Naruto Need a Clone for Rasengan?\" width=\"1361\" height=\"768\" title=\"\" srcset=\"https:\/\/narutoexplained.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/04\/Naruto-Uzumaki-1.webp 1361w, https:\/\/narutoexplained.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/04\/Naruto-Uzumaki-1-300x169.webp 300w, https:\/\/narutoexplained.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/04\/Naruto-Uzumaki-1-1024x578.webp 1024w, https:\/\/narutoexplained.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/04\/Naruto-Uzumaki-1-768x433.webp 768w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1361px) 100vw, 1361px\" \/><figcaption id=\"caption-attachment-2142\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">Why Does Naruto Need a Clone for Rasengan?<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<p><b>No, <a href=\"https:\/\/narutoexplained.com\/when-does-naruto-learn-rasengan\/\">Naruto mastered his Rasengan<\/a> with the help of shadow clones.<\/b><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Initially, Naruto uses his right hand to cause the necessary type of rotation.
