**Notable Attacks/Techniques**:

- **Rasengan**:
 A sphere of chakra energy that can create a large explosion and damage
the inside of a target. Needs to be within melee range to use it. Minato
 created this technique.

**- Kuchiyose no Jutsu (Summoning Technique)**:
 The Summoning Technique is a space–time ninjutsu that allows the
summoner to summon animals or people across long distances instantly.
Minato is able to summon frogs, such as Gamabunta.

* **Hiraishin no Jutsu (Flying Thunder God Technique)**:

 A teleportation technique created by Minato Namikaze. To activate this
technique, the user needs a special seal to mark the destination. After
this is done, the user enters a dimensional void that instantaneously
transports themselves to the location of the seal. Minato applied the
formula in advance to weapons such as special kunai, and can also apply
the mark to a touched area, such as his opponent (The seal never
disappears) or some other surrounding feature. Minato can also use this
technique to teleport other objects (warped the Juubi's bijuu bomb
without problems), though the size of the object determines the amount
of chakra required.

* **Jikukan Kekkei (Space–Time Barrier)**:

 Using a kunai with a Hiraishin seal, Minato can form a barrier that
will teleport away incoming attacks directed at it to another Hiraishin
seal at his choosing (basically the same as Hiraishin, only applied to
something other than himself). He can divert away attacks as powerful as
 a Biju Bomb from Kurama.

**- Fūinjutsu (Sealing Techniques)**: A type of jutsu that seal objects, living beings, chakra, along with a wide variety of other things within another object.

* **Shiki Fūjin (Sealing Jutsu: Reaper Death Seal)**:

 A seal which invokes the power of the "death god". Once called upon,
the death god hovers behind the user and wraps its left arm with prayer
beads, which causes a seal to appear on it. The death god's arm extends
from their chest and grabs the soul of the target, immobilizing them at
which time the victim can see the death god as well. At the user's
command, the death god then performs the sealing, consuming the souls of
 the user and the sealed, sentencing them to be locked in combat within
its stomach for all eternity.

* **Four Symbols Seal**:

 The sealing formula is carved into a human body or an object, and is
mainly used when a giant enemy or evil spirit needs to be sealed. To use
 it, it is necessary for the user to have great ability.

* **Contract Seal**:

 When the user implements this technique on a summoner, it removes any
direct control the summoner has over a summoned creature.

- **Shunshin no Jutsu (Body Flicker Technique)**:
 A high-speed movement technique, accomplished by using chakra to
temporarily vitalise the body and move in a short burst of enhanced
speed.

- **Chakra Transfer Technique**: Can transfer his chakra to other people, or people close to him.

 **- Jinchuriki Forms and Abilities**
 Due to sealing the Yin half of Kuramainto him before he died, Minato
has access to the Yin half of Kurama's power. Thus his speed, strength,
and durability increase to incredible levels.

* **Kyubi Chakra Mode**:

 The first form Minato displayed. It seems to be a mix between Naruto's
humanoid Biju Mode and his Kyubi Chakra Mode, and thus enables him to
fully transform into Kurama.

* **Biju Mode**:

 After Naruto managed to convince Yin Kurama to make his presence known,
 Kurama granted Minato the ability to fully transform into a darker
shaded version of Naruto's full Biju Form. In this form he can use
gigantic Rasengans and can even do the Bijudama alongside Naruto.

* **Bijudama (Tailed Beast Ball)**:

 A ratio of black and white chakra at a factor of 8:2. When stabilized,
the Bijudama can be launched as a ball of chakra with explosive force.
Should be equal to Naruto's usage, which is small country level.

**- Sennin Mode (Sage Mode or Hermit Mode)**:
 The result of using natural energy along with a ninja’s normal chakra
in perfect balance to drastically empower their abilities.
