s Jin Wu Master of the Shadows the strongest hunter in history and aisler like none other this guy really went from being the world's weakest Hunter to an actual God who rewrote Mankind's history in just a few months despite starting off as the worst e rank Jin Wu became a player of the system instantly unlocking a way to increase his level to over 100 thus increasing his strength and speed each time but that's not all jinu would acquire power and abilities that transcend any other Hunter such as having the ability to control his own shadow
Army it all started when Jin Wu unfortunately or should I say luckily ended up in a double dungeon with absolutely overpowered enemies turns out though this was a plan orchestrated by a mage known as the architect who was working alongside the strongest being in the whole universe the shadow Monarch ashborne to find a hunter suitable to host his immense power but because ashborne was so busted they first needed this person to strengthen their mind and body so that they wouldn't be destroyed by Ash born's Powers so they turned Jin Wu from a hunter to a
player where as he leveled up he would gain all the shadow Monarch's abilities through the system the first of all these abilities came right as we all thought he was dead in the double dungeon when Jin Wu completed the quest courage of the week by displaying bravery and intellect against the stone statues this allowed him to fully regenerate his health and completely restore his cut off leg giving Jin Wu another chance at life another perk of completing this Quest was that he gained a spell called Candi aru's blessing which gave him the passive ability to
regenerate any body part but the best part was the longevity that made him immune to any disease illness or poison undoubtedly being able to heal yourself is a huge part of any game and so Jin Wu was granted the ability status recovery this would kick in upon completion of specific missions or dungeons like we see against the lizards however this and all the abilities jinu received were not actually granted by the system as in reality he wasn't just becoming a stronger Hunter but slowly unlocking all the powers of ashborn by doing so he literally achieved
every freaking possible power Jin Wu is a freak who grows in strength exponentially with every battle which is the main reason why he was able to go from zero to hero in just a few months through constantly leveling up and doing saitamas training every day is his daily quest of 100 Push UPS 100 sit-ups and a 10 km run his physical abilities including strength speed and regeneration were enhanced to superhuman levels I know you're all thinking but that's the case for every Hunter they're all stronger than your normal human but Jin wo is on his
own scale for example even when he was holding back he managed to beat Thomas Andre the strongest of the five National level Hunters to the brink of death and this was before he fully became the shadow Monarch but it's not not just brute strength that's dangerous in Jin Wu's Arsenal first there is detection which allows him to sense the presence and location of other beings including Monsters and humans this ability helps him navigate Dungeons and stay aware of potential threats it's almost like observation hackey but the real danger of this power comes into play in
combination with camouflage or stealth this is an ability jinu gained after killing the B rank Hunter Kang taik it allows the user to erase their shape spell sound and even Aura in this battle against Kang is also when we see the use of bloodlust that lets Jin Wu intimidate a Target into submission sort of like conqueror haky but even this ability pales in comparison to dragon's fear where jinu releases a Mana infused shout from his soul that drives anyone weaker than him into a state of intense Despair and panic then there are simple abilities like
Quicksilver which gives him a 30% boost in speed for a short period mutilation which are slashes from his daggers that do critical damage and Shred enemies into into pieces dagger Rush does exactly what it sounds like it barrages the enemy with a combo of dagger attacks then an ability that's not as simple is ruler Authority which is a power wielded by the vessels or rulers and since ashborne used to be a ruler before turning to the monarchs jinwu of course has access to that too this is a form of telekinesis which allows jinu to move
objects and people given that they are weaker than him around although other Hunters who have received the ruler's blessings can also use this ability Jin Wu was able to use it to incapacitate all the architect statues at once plus it doesn't use any manner at all but the most important power that Jin Ru receives is the one that enables him to manipulate the life force of living beings including resurrecting the dead this is how he's able to create a whole Shadow Army using his shadow extraction ability jinmu is able to resurrect Fallen monsters that he's
killed and turn them into Shadows essentially making them his eternal slaves for example when an s-rank gate spawned in Tokyo jinu killed and extracted the Shadows of the Giants who attacked this created his strongest infantry unit of 28 soldiers as each of the Giants was strong enough to contend with an s-rank Hunter even the number two national level Chinese Hunter Liu Zang had trouble beating just one of these guys but it's not just monsters he can also extract the shadows of humans as seen with Min buun guu buun guu was an srank Hunter who died
at the hands of the ant king during the jedu island arc an incredible healer and probably the best in all of Korea jinu revived him so that chyen could be healed as she was on the brink of death however after completing this Jin Wu decided to let buung Yun go releasing his shadow extraction this is because the Shadows have no real will of their own that jinu slays that will do whatever he wants buung guu had been fighting for years enduring the war between hunters and monsters he was now finally able to rest but if
Jin Wu brought it back he would be nothing more than an immortal slave forced to continue fighting when he no longer wanted to so if you ever manage to piss Jin Wu off you can't even run away and even when you're dead you'll just become his and serve him I ain't going to lie I'm getting cooked one of the things that makes these Shadows so op is that they're almost impossible to detect whilst they're hiding within the shadows of humans in the story only isil's father someone in the demon castle and Lenard nman are able
to notice their presence because of how perceptive they are even Top Class s rankers are completely clueless as Jin Ru puts a few of his Shadows pund them in the hunters convention in America furthermore jinu's abilities Monarch's domain also exponentially increases the Shadows already incredible power as he can buff the strength of all his active Soldiers by 50% in battle his own healing ability is also applicable to the Shadows giving them the power of regeneration so until his Mana runs out even if you manage to kill a shadow they will just come back almost instantly
during the International Conference Arc Germany's top Hunter even claimed that Jin Wu could wage war on the entire United States with his shadow Army any country in the world would get decimated by his forces as he's able to hold up to 130,000 shadows and at the end of the series it has access to over 10 million moreover these soldiers constantly remain hidden in the shadows so jinmu doesn't need to spend Mana to summon them and he can unleash them at any time he wants he can even use his shadows as a portal to travel vast
distances in an instant through his shadow exchange ability bro actually has fast travel of course just like the hunters the Shadows also have a ranking system starting off at normal grade elite Knight Commander or General Marshall and finally Grand Marshal the final ranked second only to Jin Wu himself who takes on the role of Master SL Monarch with that being said let's go over all the major Shadows present throughout the story The First Shadow jinu ever extracted is the blood red Commander igis now igis is a special case as he originally served under ashborne during
the original war with the rulers and so ashborne assigned him to test his successor when the time was right Jin Wu would first encounter igis as a boss within the job change quest dungeon during their fight igis refused to be extracted by jinu until he saw his worth but as we know our boy is him and was able to defeat igis showcasing his worth as Ash born's successor and even after all that rigas still needed a reason to serve Jin Wu but eventually he saw how goat's worth and igis became his subordinate it's important to
note that although Shadow soldiers are Undead slaves they do develop their own personalities and igis is no exception to this his biggest fixation is on loyalty first with ashborn and now with Jin Wu he fights entirely for his master and is fueled by battle he even has the problem of bringing back the heads of enemies to Jin Wu igis is also extremely powerful firstly he's a master swordsman as he was able to keep up with Jin Wu during their initial fight as well as being virtually invisible to jinu's attack due to his armor only being
significantly weakened once penetrated in the eye he was already in power but when Jin Wu was reborn as the new Shadow Monarch igris obtained his true powers and jumped two grades from Elite Knight to Marshall he possesses enhanced strength speed Rejuvenation and durability not to mention his op telekinesis abilities his power is truly showcased when he had to hold his own against the frost Monarch without Jin Wu's presence this is also a testament to top-notch combat skills since he's the third strongest shadow in Jin Wu's Army the next time Jin Wu would obtain a central
components to his shadow Army would be in the Red Gate the Red Gate was the home of powerful Ice Bears and elves so Jin muu just had to show off and kill all the Ice Bears including their leader Jin Ru then added the boss leader to his shadow Army like catching a goddamn Pokemon naming him tank because of his raw power and strength in battle due to being a literal animal tank doesn't have a distinct person ality like most of the other important Shadows normally just using his animal instincts to plow through enemies and tear
them apart with his teeth and Claws he does however possess intelligence as seen when he worked with another member of The Shadow Army to kill one of the high orc Shaman's generals and that member of The Shadow Army is none other than iron another Shadow jinu extracted during the Red Gate incident iron was originally the a rank Hunter Kim Chul he was the leader of the raid team and decided to split the hunters into weaker and stronger group groups only to lose his crew however after seeing Jin Wu's group survive with plenty of resources he
goes crazy and attacks him in a battle with the king of the ice elves baruka he would attempt to kill jinwu but would be quickly killed by igis and jinwu seeing he couldn't handle the elf king just with him and igis he resurrected kimch into a shadow soldier named iron the shadow takes after his appearance in life wearing the same armor and wielding the same weapons that he did as a hunter he's a complete Loose Cannon having a tendency to go overboard in battle this normally results in excessive destruction but he takes pride in his
kills and always gets the job done after Jin Wu's Awakening his rank was increased from night grade to Elite night grade iron's strength is incredible as his rank is comparable to that of an s-rank Hunter his enhanced strength allowed him to not only kill a giant with a single strike to its head but also allow him to effortlessly drag the head of a lifeless Vulcan with one hand his most unique ability is shout of provocation which allows iron to taunt his enemies prompting them to attack him without thinking it's important to note however that this
ability only works against those weaker than him and he becomes visibly upset when it doesn't work he would be returned to his human life after Jin Wu used the cup of reincarnation having no memories of his time as a shadow next up is Tusk who Jin Wu encountered when he joined a team at the hunter Guild while they were going into an a rank gate which is said to be the highest level of an aank almost close to being an Sr after traversing the dungeon he came across the leader of the Orcs who was a
high orc Shaman jinu being the goat easily killed him and extracted his shadow transforming the shaman into Tusk something crazy about this Shadow is that upon extraction he was already Elite Night level making him one of the strongest Shadows instantly Tusk is a shy quiet and obedient Shadow he mainly stays to himself and focuses solely on aiding his master however he can get a bit competitive and become a bit of a showoff as shown during his contest with the three dragons in ashborn Shadow Army which kind of makes sense because when Jin Buu recruited him
he was talking about how high and mighty he is he had a quite a big ego suggesting that the ego and will a person or a monster has while being turned into a shadow comes into play as part of their personality Quirk when they become a shadow after J Awakening Tusk reached the grade of general which is already on par with some of the highest s ranks due to Tusk being of the Mage class he has a much more versatile move set than other Shadows firstly he's a master of gravitation magic where he's able to
levitate an enemy and smash them into the ground repeatedly but his most unique abilities are his HS which all produce different effects in battle now buckle up because um this is about to get get crazy he's like the new league champ way bro got like 20 abilities first up is the hym of protection where Tusk can create a shield around him or his Target second is hm of blazing fire where he shoots a wave of fireballs third is the HM of Agony where Tusk curses an enemy with intense pain this actually works in tandem with
the next hymn the hymn of frenzy which weakens a targets defense thus increasing the amount of damage someone takes from attacks then there is him h of blindness where Tusk naturally blinds his enemy this is followed up by the Hemm of Slumber in which Tusk drains a target of their stamina and he can then use the Hemm of lethargy where he can petrify the Target and finally the Hemm of strengthening which drastically grows tusk's size using Mana but even after all that he still has more hems holy Bro his main attack is the hym of
the fire dragon in which Tusk is able to shoot a mass massive beam of fire from his mouth this skill is enhanced when used with the orb of avarus to the point that it completely negated Baron's breath attack who remember was the king of the demons and the monarch of the white Flames a a simple subordinate is able to stay on equal footing with the offensive power of a freaking Monarch here and by the way this was like before jinu's like big Awakening where Tusk became General rank not only that but Tusk even blasted a
giant hole through halison with just this attack if that doesn't showcase how powerful this guy is in Jin Wu's Army he's literally the Mage Commander he sits back Buffs up everyone hits him with lethargy hits him with the fire attacks and just destroys everyone okay honestly if jinu wasn't at that a rank dungeon when he got there like even chahan probably would have had a pretty tough match up against this guy so he is on a completely different level honestly while we're talking about how tusk was able to negate Baron's attack let's talk about Baron's
trusty Steed the dragon kael this guy was Baron's Mount but when jinu was fighting Bon he saw the dragon and said nah that's my Mount now give it to me so after killing Boton he extracted the dragon's Shadow transforming him into kaisel honestly this is this is one of my favorite Shadows up but even though kaisel is night rank we rarely see him fight because there's just so many other Shadows that are op but he does use a few basic attacks and he uses a like a dragon attack like fire breath and to be honest
he's just a means of fast travel this dude Jin Wu uses a mount his horse is pet dragon is strong enough to flatten most sranks and he's just using it for fast travel Sensational next up we got to talk about greed um you guys remember this guy Wong dong Su yeah he's the ass who wanted to kill he wanted to kill Jin Wu stupid well he died and now he's a member of jinu Shadow Army Junu had led a life full of crime as he had no care for human life and was a huge bully
while alive dunu hated Jin Wu for killing his brother and so he decided to torture Jin Wu's best friend jinno in order to get revenge if there's anything this video has taught us is that you do not piss off Sun Jin Vu and this happened right after jinu's fight with Thomas Andre one of the strongest H honestly he's the he's the number one ranked uh Hunter but despite being slightly tired jinu was so pissed that he wasn't letting dangu get away well it seems pretty clear to me dunu didn't watch our video jinu literally hunted
this man down killed him and extracted the Shadow from his corpse not only did jinu name him greed because he was a greedy hassle but also made him bow his head head and forced the bully into submission unlike iron or mongu who were victims of monster attacks greed was made a shadow on purpose so that Jin Vu could give dungu the worst possible fate because bro messed with jinho and no Nobody messes with jinle despite originally Being Human greed looks more like a monster resembling his personality but as a shadow greed is aware of his
crimes and has decided to repent by being humble quiet and subservient to his master he often asks permission to speak and addresses Jin Wu with honorifics however despite his Redemption which he can certainly achieve due to being granted General grade upon becoming a shadow Wong dong Su was already an extremely powerful srank Hunter and jinu Shadow steroids make him even more powerful now with sheer brute strength he broke out of the frost Monarch's ice prison just like iron greed would be returned to his human form after the conflict with the monarchs was concluded and jinu
used the cup of reincarnation now Jin Buu didn't just extract normal bosses humans and monsters no he extracted some of the craziest monsters we see throughout the entire series The most prominent one was obtained during juu Islands raid where the sranks from multiple countries came together to fight the army of ants which had taken over the island while their target was the ant Queen there was actually a hidden boss the ant king he was so powerful that he single-handedly massacred eight of the 16 sranks who attempted to clear the gate including goto ryuji the strongest
hunter in Japan and if this raid had succeeded he was going to become a national level Hunter so like this dude was in contention to being like top five top six hunters in the world but he got one shot but Jin Wu enters the scene and literally starts slaughtering hundreds of these little antt which makes the ant king realize that he can't win and he tries to fle like this dude tries everything he tries to beat him in speed he tries to beat him in strength durability making himself small bit everything he tries everything but
jinmu is is better he's stronger but after the raid seeing the potential that an king showed as he he literally was destroying sranks like it was nobody's business Jin Wu decided to revive the king and name him Peru meanwhile Jin Wu also extracted the shadow of the dead end Queen baru informed him that she was unfit for battle so that's why we're not going to talk about the an Queen Shadow due to having been born to kill baru Revels in his power and has a Sinister blood lust for battle so naturally he's incredibly brutal in
combat rarely holding back unless order to going straight for his enemy's weak spot he's also pretty condescending towards his fellow Shadow soldiers as displayed when he started screaming furiously at them when they failed to follow his lead and break out of the frost Monarch's ice prison but outside of battle he's basically the funniest character in the series like all the other Shadow soldiers baru is loyal to his master but on a much greater scale he's so loyal he will compliment Jin Wu mid battle as well as constantly aim for his approval but to make this
guy even crazier he's got a hobby of watching kramas but not just any kramas historical kramas which make him sound like he's some Korean General from like the 1700s bro and of course he learned this while guarding jinu's sister but but in terms of power baru is a member of the three strongest shadows in jinu's Army being on equal footing with egis and the Grand Marshall he was originally General grade and became Marshall grade after jinu's Reawakening and his power is off the charts firstly he has Incredible strength speed and durability being able to effortlessly
crush chahen sword in his bare hand he also one- shot an arlick broke out of the frost Monarch's ice prison and slashed off the plague Monarch's fingers on top of that he was able to tank jinu's attacks during their training session as well as being able to fly from jju to Busan in a matter of minutes he can also enhance his power with his ability size manipulation allowing him to increase his strength at the cost of speed by growing his body and vice versa by this guy is on another level and we're not even done
covering because baru also has this ability called gluttony which allows him to absorb the skills and knowledge of those he consumes this this works in tandem with his other powers like paralysis potion where baru spits a magical poison which is extremely toxic and fatal killing a Target in seconds on the other hand he's also a master healer even being able to bring jinho back to full health from the brink of death after jinu reset history baru continued to stay loyal and even watched over the new Shadow Monarch's son s suho growing a close attachment to
him he was like his Nanny basically but if you thought an and King was badass then what about a freaking Dragon this is kamish and he is known as Humanity's greatest Calamity as he demolished America's West Coast and massacred many Hunters he destroyed half of the US okay like what the kamesh was originally a servant of the Dragon Monarch anteris the strongest Monarch it wouldn't be until eons later when he would spawn in America and he was only defeated and killed once the last five surviving s rank hunters came together you heard me right they
needed five srank Hunters to defeat this guy kamish only became a shadow for a short while as after his death the fdh preserved his body in the same exact location he died in due to being dead for so long the shadow extraction couldn't be permanent and so kish's body withered away however kamish still had some amazing feats and abilities even without the shadow buff first of all he was able to single-handedly Massacre hundreds of srank Hunters his power is also set to be comparable to pre- Shadow baru who let me remind you he killed goor
Yuji in one hit one single hit just like all the other dragons in the series kamish also has a dragon breath attack but his most signature technique is dragon's fear also one super important detail about kamish is that Jin Buu's best weapon kamisha's wrath is forged from his fangs this means even though kamish could never properly join the Army he was still with our boy in in spirit and then later on he gets three freaking dragons in his army this is light work this dude who defeated hundreds of s rankers and was only quelled by
Nation level Hunters coming together oh my God now he has three of them another boss that our boy jinu acquired is the a rank boss net a part human and part snake creature Jima is on the level of the average estang Hunter since he's an elite night grade Shadow finally we reached the strongest shadow in jinu's Army the greatest gift given to our boy from ashborne Grand Marshall Bellion he's a huge humanoid-like creature with a pair of black wings on his back black armor white eyes and glowing purple skin with a single horned helmet worn
on his head he was born eons ago from the fruit of the world tree which is said to be so large that it could cover the entire sky with just its branch ranches he eventually became ashour's Lieutenant which he even maintained after his death and was also the first shadow soldier to ever be created jinu would encounter his second in command for the first time after he had killed the three monarchs as a giant gate opened in Korea containing ashour's full original Shadow arm here Bellion would pledge his loyalty to Jin Wu becoming his greatest
asset naturally as the first Shadow he maintained a personality Bellion isn't very emotional he just simps for the shadow Monarch whether that's ashorn or Jin Wu and like a lot of other Shadows he is a warrior through and through both in body and soul but due to his rank being Grand Marshall he is second in command in the Army just behind Jin Buu as for his abilities bellion's strength and durability are Immaculate to give examples he was able to easily SWAT aide baru's attacks and smash him into the ground he was also able to completely
tank one of baru's strikes head on not showing any signs of death damage remember baru is supposed to be just below him in strength meaning he's stronger than kamish who was able to take out hundreds of s ranks and this guy easily stops him also if you were thinking wow is that all we have on the strongest Shadow then honestly yeah basically this guy was so hyped I was left a bit disappointed when we didn't get to like see more of him you know but actually actually wait wait wait wait we we do actually see
him in the Side Story where jinu's son sunu ho has to defeat Bellion as the fin fin boss before fighting Jin Vu so there's that I guess but if you want to learn more about why Jin Buu is a freaking God and he isn't actually a human then click on the video on screen right now
