Literally: "One Thousand Birds", it is a technique created by Hatake Kakashi after he failed to infuse his lightning nature manipulation into the Rasengan. It primarily an assassination technique and can only be properly used by one who possesses the Sharingan. Uchiha Sasuke has adopted this jutsu and modified it for his own uses.

Amaterasu (literally "Shining Heaven"), is a technique used by Uchiha Itachi while enabling the Mangekyou Sharingan. It is named after the Shinto sun goddess, Amaterasu. This jutsu is fire-element ninjutsu of the highest order and creates unquenchable jet-black flames said to be as hot as the sun and capable of burning for seven days and seven nights, as well as through any material.
Jiraiya: There is no escape. They're trapped in the esophagus of a fire-breathing rock toad from Myouboku Mountain.

Itachi: Amaterasu.

The name given to the genin cell of Sarutobi Hiruzen, consiting of Jiraiya, Orochimaru and Tsunade. During the Second Great Shinobi War, they battled Salamander Hanzou, the leader of Hidden Rain to a standstill. Hanzou was so impressed with their abilities to survive the battle, he spared their lives on the condition they accept the title of "Sannin of Konoha". Over time, their skills grew even further and they gained a wide reputation as Konoha's Legendary Three.
Legendary Sannin:

The three of you are strong. Even within this strife, you survived.

I, Hanzou... hereby honour you as the "Sannin of Konoha."

Tsukuyomi: literally "Moon Reader", named after the Shinto moon god, Tsukuyomi. One of Uchiha Itachi's kekkei genkai techniques enabled by the Mangekyou Sharingan, Tsukuyomi is perhaps the most powerful visual genjutsu ever used. Simply by making eye contact with the victim, Itachi can use Tsukuyomi to transport them to an illusionary world of Itachi's creation. This world seems to have several constants: a dark crimson sky with a full moon and black outlines of objects and/or people seen inside it. Because Itachi created this alternate reality, his control of it is absolute, including the flow of time itself. Limited only by his own imagination, he is able to torture an opponent in any way he desires, leaving them crippled and in a state of severe mental collapse. This technique also requires a large amount of chakra to perform, which limits Itachi's use of it.
Itachi: "Tsukuyomi."

Kakashi: *falls to the ground after enduring three days of continuous torture in the space of a moment*
