Naruto: My Hunting System

Chapter 20: Was It Because He Got Stronger?

When he returned to the Senju compound, Nawaki met Tsunade and Kushina in the courtyard.

Tsunade was mentoring Kushina, something Nawaki was all too familiar with.

Kushina, with her large chakra reserve, was manifesting a lot of chakras as Tsunade guided her.

"Welcome back." Tsunade said as she looked at him, "We're waiting for you to arrive for dinner."

Nawaki nodded calmly, "I'm back."

Facing the grass and familiar smell, Nawaki got up from the ground he was lying on.

The nearby bush sways and the instant this happens, Nawaki's arm begins to be enveloped by the wind in the form of a wind tunnel and he cuts in the direction of the noise.

*Whoosh!*

Nawaki went there and picked up the dim red light orbs.

'Rabbits are no longer a challenge.' Nawaki muttered in his mind.

His thoughts soon went to the new power he had gained.

Soon, Nawaki's hands are enveloped by dark mist.

Nawaki touched the ground with his hand.

It was as if his hand weighed tons, creating layers of depth in the ground.

Pulling his hand, Nawaki tried using it on his feet.

When done, he didn't feel anything unusual at first, but then, he seemed to be stepping into his own shadow, however, he stopped when he got close to the knee where the dark mist didn't reach.

'Can I become one with the shadow?' Nawaki felt the heart in his chest beat faster.

When Nawaki undid the power and his foot got stuck on the ground, when he activates the dark mist, he can pull his foot back...

Nawaki continued to do tests.

But the tests that followed were using shadow clones.

The fact that he could get stuck in the ground didn't seem like fun.

Nawaki realizes that he could in fact literally become a shadow and 'swim' on the ground.

The presence of the shadow clone that did this is basically gone. It was nearly impossible to track.

"Damn this is fuckin' badass!"

Although if he undoes the effect of the dark mist he's stuck on the floor, it would be foolish of him to do something like that willingly.

Another thing was that if he chose not to sink to the ground, he gained speed in this form until his strength increased and defended. Although in defense it has not increased so much, the fact that it is 'slippery' makes it a very good defense.

Making his shadow clones fight each other, he realizes that he is able to deliver blows, but what is hit in dark mist mode is literally a dark mist, however, this is just an illusory effect, the real body has already changed position while there was an after-image effect in the form of a dark mist.

What also excited him was being able to use wind and fire art while in this mode.

The wind even grew darker under the influence of the dark mist mode. Fire also had a change that he called Dark Fire and the Wind Dark Wind.

Another thing that is related to dark mist. Before he could make 26 shadow clones, but now, he was very close to making 100 shadow clones at the same time.
