Shuriken Shadow Clone Technique | Shuriken Kage Bunshin No Jutsu
Type: Ninjutsu
Rank: Jounin
Cost: 2/3(xy) Chakra
Effect: This technique may be performed once per turn in the Main Phase as a Free Action after making a Small Weapon Attack. When determining the cost of this technique "x" is equivalent to the base damage of the small weapon attack and "'y" is equivalent to a number chosen by the user (max; 10). The user's Small Weapon Attack gains "y" additional strikes for each strike made (additional strikes target the same target as the original strike and are treated as the same type of weapon). Strikes created by this technique do not gain any effects from the original weapons that directly affect their target (explosive tags, poison, etc). The base damage of all additional strikes created by this technique may not exceed the maximum damage for a Ninjutsu technique of the user's rank. This technique may be performed 2 times per battle.
Description: Invented by the Third Hokage Hiruzen Sarutobi, Shuriken Shadow Clones are an extremely advanced form of offensive clone. By swiftly replicating any weapons that they have thrown at their opponent, the user is able to in effect carry fewer real weapons, saving much needed space on their person. The weapon-clones created are no less real than the originals and make this technique quite lethal. For several generations this technique was kept as a secret solely of the Sarutobi clan, but was eventually traded to Konohagakure's general populace. It was not long after that before the technique was seeing use among villages through-out the shinobi world.
