Shadow Clone Jutsu

Also see the original: Shadow Clone Jutsu The Shadow Clone Jutsu is used to create clones of the user. Whereas clones created by the Clone Jutsu are merely illusions that can do no more than cause distractions, Shadow Clones are very real. They can interact with the world around them and attack a target. Given the Jutsu's ability to create multiple physical copies of the user, an opponent of the technique can find themselves overwhelmed in a short period of time.
