Description

Body Replacement Technique is a basic ninjutsu that allows one, at the last moment before an enemy attack lands, to substitute oneself with a wooden log or another suitable object. The attack does indeed hit something, and the opponent believes for a split second that the blow reached its target, but it is merely an optical illusion. In that instant, the user either hides or delivers a counterattack.
