Description: The Afterimage clone uses the user's natural speed mixed with a small amount of chakra to create residual images of themselves as they move around an area, this is used as a way of disorienting the opponent by making it appear that there are more than just one of the user. These clones have no physical form, however due to them being maintained by the user continually moving through them they seemingly all move in unison with the user's actual movements allowing the user to strike from them and when the opponent goes to strike the user they can if they are fast enough (A-Rank Coord) evade the attack by moving to another clone image. Due to the sheer number of potential clones this technique can create, it lowers the opponents perception by 1-tier while this technique is in effect.
Weaknesses: Those that possess A-Rank or higher perception or a Doujutsu capable of seeing chakra can see through the illusion of the clones and find the user of the technique. If the user is struck, the technique ends.
