After a few moments of watching the insects falling, he allows the jutsu to end, and the cloned bugs instantly disappear while his original swarm returns to him right away. The initial shadow clone insect technique already takes a heavy toll on his chakra reserves, but doing both techniques causes a great deal of strain for him, so he needs a moment to recover, sitting and letting his chakra return before he stands back up to ready himself for the next technique. This time, however, he has to approach the training dummies even more closely, as he had done the mathematical calculations on this next technique, and while it was very powerful as an Aburame technique, its range would be heavily limited, making it a close range type of technique in any case. But with that decreased range, he knew the jutsu would be incredibly fast, and therefore, extremely difficult for any opponents to dodge it. It was also possible that he'd be able to trick opponents into approaching him by making himself appear to be a long-range fighter with both his Doton techniques and his bug jutsu, thus ensuring that this technique might hit his opponents. He takes a moment to surround himself with four training dummies, each on different sides of him.
Once the training dummies are in place, he performs the handseals, rapidly once more, though once again reminding him that he needs to improve on his ability to perform handseals so that he can get this part of the jutsu out of the way as quickly as possible; it's simply too much of a potential liability if an opponent is already close enough to him to be able to halt his handseals. Regardless, instead of sending the shadow clone insects anywhere else, he simply allows them to cover his body, from head to toe, propagating into massive numbers. There's a pause then, a pregnant silence as the numbers grow to massive levels, feeling like Anzo is under pressure from the weight of the insects themselves until they erupt from his coat in every direction, like a sudden explosion of insects all over the dummies and knocking them away with intense power.
He takes a look at the destruction caused by the shadow cloned insects as they disappear in puffs of smoke, leaving behind completely destroyed training dummies, and he turns and leaves the training facility, feeling accomplished for his jutsu.
