<p>First of all, jutsu (術) means "technique", "skill", "method", "trick" or "spell".</p>

<p>A ninjutsu (忍術, lit. "ninja techniques") is one of the three types of jutsu that exist in Naruto. <a href="https://anime.stackexchange.com/a/3043/49">This answer</a> defines it as  </p>

<blockquote>
  <p>a term referring to almost any technique which allows the user to do something that they otherwise would be incapable of doing, including the usage of weapons.</p>
</blockquote>

<p>As for "no jutsu" (の術): "no" (の) is a Japanese particle that, in this case, indicates possessive, and jutsu is explained above. That means that the expression "... no Jutsu" means "Technique of ..." or "... Technique".<br>
In that way, Kage Bunshin no Jutsu (影分身の術) is translated to Shadow Clone Technique and Kuchiyose no Jutsu (口寄せの術) is translated to Summoning Technique.<br>
And yes, these two are Ninjutsu.</p>

<p>Aren't Kage Bunshin No Jutsu or Kuchiyose no jutsu of ninjutsu type? </p>

<p>Also please state why Kabuto told Orochimaru that Naruto isn't blessed with a technique and he relies upon the Nine Tails? He said that during Jiraiya/Tsunade fight with Orochimaru in Search for Tsunade arc. I hope Rasengan is a ninjutsu.</p>
