With Kanji, there are two ways to pronounce the characters. On'yomi and Kun'yomi.

In the Naruto universe, they use On'yomi for jutsu names. For example, Fire (火) can be read as Ka (On'yomi) or Hi (Kun'yomi). Fire Release techniques use the On'yomi option to make it Katon.

Flare (燃) can be read as Nen (On'yomi) or Moeru (Kun'yomi). So Flare Release techniques would be Nenton.

The same goes for the Release (遁) part of the name. ton is the On'yomi version.

The Kun'yomi names are normally used for locations in the Naruto world. For example, the Land of Fire (火の国) is Hi no Kuni. Where Fire uses Hi instead of Ka, and Land uses Kuni.
