Not very good. The essence of the Shadow Legion – disappearing into the shadows for survival, shadow travel, and the Shadow Empire – is missing. It's just a simple summoning of the Shadow Legion. Overall, it's somewhat interesting, but not much.
The Shadow Legion's Shadowworld movement skills are so basic, they're practically useless!
If Orochimaru hadn't been killed, things would have been much easier. He was more open-minded than the Third Hokage and wouldn't be controlled by Danzo. As long as he didn't harm the villagers, he would likely support Orochimaru's research. Setting up a research department is no small matter; prisoners and captured bandits would suffice for experimental subjects.
If I remember correctly, those who can summon the Shadow Legion can also travel through the darkness.
Actually, I feel it's more reasonable for it to appear in the Shadow Kingdom of the Ninja World under the name of a Summoning Sanctuary. Wearing the mask is Sage Mode. The Summoning Contract is the Kara Mark. The price is the souls of oneself and the enemy. Transforming into an army.
I've only read 26 chapters, so a 7 is a bit low. I'd probably give it an 8. The reason for the comments is that everyone says the Shadow Legion is being suppressed… I don't see that… The Shadow Legion's numbers are similar to those in Jackie Chan Adventures; he summoned over a dozen at the age of five, and they're all elite genin, clearly stronger than those in Jackie Chan Adventures.
This is a relatively rational novel, and the inclusion of a modern person's time-traveling mindset is a plus. After all, it's unlikely that someone who travels through time would become a seasoned middle-aged person immediately, since a young person who travels back to childhood wouldn't gain much experience.
The author deducted one star because they didn't explain why the Shadowkhan couldn't carry people while they were genin; they only said it was for plot purposes. Even if the protagonist's chakra wasn't enough to summon a Shadowkhan for carrying people, that would have been a different story. The second minor poison chapter 228 makes that general withstand the Tailed Beast Ball head-on.
Overall, it's very good, a combination of Jackie Chan Adventures and Naruto, including the overall presentation of the masks. It would be better if the character arcs of each general were clearer. Now there's a question about how Tara will appear later. After all, Tara is the sole leader of the Shadow Kingdom. When she appears, will she be like Blade Dragon, with a strong sense of self, or will the protagonist himself be an incarnation of Tara? I look forward to the later plot developments.
It's not bad; the author could add a setting: only positive chakra can cause any damage to the Nine Generals.
