 Creation of Jutsu Jutsu, or skills/techniques, are the mystical arts a ninja will utilize in battle. To use a jutsu, the ninja will need to use his chakra. Chakra comes from two places. (1) the body energy inherent in your trillions of cells and (2) the mental & spiritual energy gained from exercise and experience. To perform a jutsu, the ninja will bring out and release these two energies. By forming handseals, the ninja is able manifest the desired jutsu. Because of the extensive number of hand seals and different combinations, there are thousands of potential jutsu to be discovered.

The Five Elements Based on which jutsu the ninja uses, the type and amount of chakra will be different as would the elements you would be to employ. The five main elemental styles are also the five names for the Five Great Shinobi Countries: Fire, Wind, Lightning, Earth and Water. Each ninja has the potential to better utilize one of these styles and potentially more. A special elemental detecting paper is used to determine ones type. The paper comes from trees which are specially grown with chakra. When the ninja imbues the paper with a portion of their chakra, the paper will alter to reveal one's type. The paper will rip in two for Wind, burn for Fire, become wet for Water, fall apart for Earth and crumple for Lightning. For example Kakashi is a predisposed Lightning type, while Sasuke is both Lightning and Fire for the Uchiha clan specialty. The five elements themselves form a cyclical strong and weak relationship against each other. The element of Fire is stronger than Wind, as the usage of Wind merely increases the strength of Fire. So if a Fire jutsu came up against an equal strength Wind jutsu, the Fire jutsu is more likely to win out. Wind in turn is stronger than Lightning. Lightning is stronger than Earth and Earth in stronger than Water. Water finishes the cycle by naturally winning out over Fire.

The Advanced Elements
Okay, this is where things get tricky. The following are Jutsu natures made by mixing two of the same or different types of the five elements.
Fire + Fire = Combustion ; Seeing as how Combustion is double fire. Its doubly weak to water. Meaning, an A rank Combustion skill could be trumped by a B rank water jutsu. However, it also means that is is doubly strong against wind. Meaning, that the wind jutsu would have to be one rank higher then the combustion jutsu to trump it.
Fire + Water = Oil ; Seeing as how its Fire and Water Combined and Fire is Weak to Water, the weakness of Water is filtered out from this jutsu. These type of jutsu only have the weakness of normal earth jutsu. Which is the Earth Element of equal or greater strength.
Fire + Wind = Poison ; Another case when an element that can trump the other is used together. As wind is weak to fire, the weakness to fire is filtered out. Meaning, these type of jutsu are only trumped by jutsu that are of the water nature of equal or greater strength.
Fire + Earth = Magma ; This is an odd case with these two combining. Fire is weak against Water, but Earth is strong against water. With this, it means in order to trump a Magma jutsu you need a water technique that is of equal or greater level then the magma jutsu. This type of jutsu also has a weakness which is to Lightning type jutsu, that is of equal or greater level.
Fire + Lightning = Light ; In this case, because of the Fire portion of the jutsu it has a strength against Wind jutsu but has a weakness to Water Jutsu. With lightning it has a weakness against Wind jutsu but has a strength against Earth jutsu. Because of the elements it is neutral to wind. This element can trump earth jutsu, but can be trumped by a Water jutsu of equal or greater value.
Water + Water = Cloud ; with this double affinity it makes this type of jutsu double strong against fire jutsu but doubly weak against water jutsu. Meaning, a Cloud jutsu of one rank lower then a fire jutsu can trump it. However, it takes a Cloud jutsu of one rank higher then an earth jutsu to trump it.
Water + Wind = Ice ; With this affinity, because of Water it is able to trump Fire jutsu but is weak against earth jutsu. Because of the Wind it is weak against fire jutsu but can trump lightning jutsu. With the two affinities, it makes it neutral against wind type jutsu. Able to trump lightning jutsu, and being weak against earth jutsu.
Water + Earth = Wood ; With this affinity, because of Water it is able to trump Fire jutsu but is weak against earth jutsu. Because of the earth is is weak against lightning jutsu but can trump water. Fire jutsu only make Wood jutsu stronger, and unless its a higher rank it will not destroy the wood. It is neutral against Fire jutsu. But has a weakness to Lightning Jutsu.
Water + Lightning = Shadow ; With this affinity, because of water it is able to trump fire jutsu but is weak against earth jutsu. Because of the lightning affinity it is strong against earth but weak against wind. This type of jutsu is neutral when it comes to Earth Jutsu. Become stronger because of fire jutsu, and only a strong one can trump it. And is weak against the Wind element.
Wind + Wind = Sound ; With this affinity, because of the fire it is doubly weak to Fire but is doubly strong against lightning. It takes a jutsu of a higher rank then a fire jutsu in order for Sound to trump it. However, the Sound jutsu can be a rank below the lightning jutsu and trump it.
Wind + Earth = Sand ; With this affinity, because of the wind it is weak to fire but strong against lightning. With earth, it is weak to lightning but strong against water. This type of jtusu is neutral against Lightning Jutsu. This type of jutsu can be trumped by higher level or equal level fire jutsu, and trumps water jutsu.
Wind + Lightning = Magnetism ; with this affinity, Wind is strong against lightning but is weak against fire. Lightning is weak against Wind, but is strong against Earth. Magnetism jutsu is neutral against the lightning element. Magnetism jutsu are weakened in the presence of fire jutsu. Magnetism jutsu are intensified in the presence of Earth Jutsu.
Earth + Earth = Metal ; with this affinity, you have an element that is doubly strong against water jutsu but is also double weak against lightning jutsu. Meaning, for a water jutsu to defeat a metal jutsu it needs to be at least one rank higher. But with Lightning jutsu it only takes a jutsu with a level lower then it to defeat it.
Earth + Lightning = Gravity ; with this affinity, because of Earth you have a strength to Water jutsu and a weakness against Lightning Jutsu. Because of Lightning you have a strength against Earth and a weakness against Wind. This type of jutsu is neutral with the Earth element. Water jutsu are trumped by Gravity. Wind jutsu can trump Gravity.
Lightning + Lightning = Plasma ; with this affinity, it is doubly strong against Earth Jutsu but is doubly weak against Wind jutsu. Meaning that it would only take a Plasma Jutsu that is one rank lower then a particular earth jutsu to defeat it. While the vice versa against Wind jutsu.
Advanced Jutsu vs Advanced Jutsu
Metal > Cloud > Combustion > Sound > Plasma > Metal
Light = Shadow [Meaning, if equal they cancel each other out]
Magma > Ice > Poison > Wood > Oil > Sand > Gravity > Magma
Magma > Magnetism > Gravity >Magma
