The Triple Rashomon is an upgrade to the standard Summoning: Rashomon, which as its name suggest creates three Rashomon Gates. The technique requires two summoning seals to be completed. These gates serve the same function as the standard Rashomon Gate, but with triple the defense. Each gate has a specific duty: the first gate takes the attack head-on, the second gate reduces the power of the attack, and the third gate disperses the pressure. These gates are not invincible, as they are all destroyed by, and barely protect Orochimaru from, the Four-Tailed Fox Menacing Ball.
