The Budget Version Returns

In the blink of an eye, Tsukimi crossed the entire Forest of Death and arrived behind the two White Zetsu. For the first time, he had a clear sense of what it meant to travel through the Shadow Realm.

This was the new change to the Shadow Realm after he unlocked the third group of Shadowkhan.

Before, only his mind could enter the Shadow Realm, and he usually treated it as an oversized storage room.

The stab that had killed Darui yesterday had already pushed that ability to its limit.

But things were different now. His body could enter the Shadow Realm directly.

Within a radius of sixteen kilometers, he could ignore terrain and distance, entering and exiting through any shadow he chose.

He needed no mark or medium, and there was no delay before or after using it.

The only drawback was that it consumed a fair amount of Chakra.

In a sense, this was his own smaller, improved version of the Flying Thunder God Technique.

An ability like this was far more terrifying than a simple boost in combat strength.

From now on, if someone annoyed him, he could slip through the shadows and stab them in the back!

Could I bring someone with me? I'll have to try it when I get the chance.

Tsukimi pushed aside his excitement and turned his gaze to the two unsuspecting White Zetsu ahead.

The two White Zetsu chatted as they slacked off, their attention fixed on the dejected trio of Nagato and his friends. Their guard was completely down. Neither noticed the deadly threat silently arriving behind them.

At Tsukimi's thought, two pitch-black figures rose without a sound from the shadows behind the White Zetsu. They were members of the Ninja Tribe, the Shadowkhan best suited to stealth and assassination.
