The Forbidden Shadow Clone Jutsu in Naruto
The Shadow Clone Jutsu lets ninjas create copies of themselves.
These clones can fight and act independently.
However, this technique is banned because it uses up a lot of chakra, which is a ninja's energy.
When a ninja makes a clone, their chakra splits between them.
The more clones, the more chakra is used.
Most ninjas can't handle this drain.
Naruto, however, can use it because he has a huge amount of chakra, thanks to the Nine-Tailed Fox inside him.
This is why Naruto can use the technique freely while others cannot.
The Shadow Clone Jutsu creates corporeal duplicates of the user.
It is a forbidden technique due to the enormous chakra expenditure.
Creating clones divides the user's chakra between the original and the clones.
Even elite ninjas like the Third Hokage could only summon a few clones.
Naruto can use the technique due to his large chakra reserves and the Nine-Tailed Fox.
