The Scroll of Seals (封印の書, Fūin no Sho) is a scroll containing many kinjutsu, starting with the Multiple Shadow Clone Technique. Because of the dangerous techniques it contains, the scroll was sealed away by the First Hokage.
After failing his graduation exam, Naruto Uzumaki was tricked by Mizuki into stealing the scroll from the Hokage Residence, stating that if Naruto can learn one technique within it, he would be allowed to graduate (which did turn out to be true). In the manga, Mizuki stated that he wanted the scroll for himself for power, but in the anime extension arc, it is revealed that he intended to give the scroll to his master, Orochimaru.
