After listening intently to senpai, Shikamaru quickly channels his chakra into his feet. As the clone keeps nearing him he relaases the chakra into his shadow and keeps a constant flow of chakra in it. Then he applies shape manipulation to his shadow and manipulates it to move towards the clone. The moment clones shadow is touched with shikamaru's shadow clone is stopped in his place. Shikamaru then proceeds to makes his shadow thin and rise over the clones body. Shikamaru uses the shadow to completely binds the clone by wrapping shadow around him, but he leaves it just before shadow was about to disperse, as he still wanted shadow to attack him.
Advantages |
1. Requires no hand seals.
2. It can be used to inflict physical damage on opponent.
3. It can be used to bind the opponent while the clone which was created beforehand attacks opponent.
4. Even though it is C-Rank opponent will have to use high amount of chakra to break out of it.
Disadvantages |
1. This technique cannot be for long range.
2. Once you have this jutsu active you cannot use any other Elemental attack.
Question |
I stated above that if I create a clone before using this technique he can attack. Is that possible and will he be able to use Elemental ninjutsu up to his rank?
After that as shikamaru releases the clone he knew clone would still try to attack him, So he takes out a special chakra blade type weapon out of his bag and channels it with his shadow nature chakra. As the clone gets near him shikamaru quickly throws the blade in the direction of clone directed at his feet. Clone stops immediately to dodge the blades, but doesn't as he sees that blades will not hit him. Instead they will just hit the ground in front of him. Just as the blades hit the ground, clone is completely immobilized. Shikamaru then takes a kunai out of his back pocket and throws it directed at clones chest. Kunai pierces throught the clones chest and causes him to disperse.
Advantages |
1. Requires no hand seal.
2. Chakra blades do not necessarily have to be channeled with chakra in battle, the can be prepared beforehand.
Disadvantages |
1. Can only be used up to mid range, So is useless against long range fighters.
2. Requires opponent to be on the ground.
3. User though unaware of shadow chakra in the blade, can still evade this technique by simply trying to evade the blades.
Question |
1. I stated above that this requires opponent to be on ground, which I am sure is the case, but what I want to know is that does it work specifically on opponent's shadow or the blades can be thrown at any shadow linked with him?
