Capítulo 242: Exam
"Casting an illusion on thirty people at once must've been hard even for you…" Nagasawa smiled and patted Masato Uchiha on the shoulder.
"Fortunately, it was only the most basic Genjutsu for some children." Masato Uchiha expressed that he was still in good shape.
The assessment actually had already began the moment Masato Uchiha entered the classroom.
Masato Uchiha looked at everyone with Sharingan in advance to leave a hint. When they were about to arrive at the Special Combat Division's base, he looked at everyone again and cast a Genjutsu on them.
"However, can you really test their aptitude for Breathing Styles by using a Genjutsu?" Masato Uchiha asked doubtfully.
He thought that he would be evaluating the participants' swordsmanship, so he was a bit surprised when Nagasawa told him to use Genjutsu to test them.
Nagasawa nodded and said, "Although swordsmanship have an important connection with Breathing Styles, willpower is more important if you want to go far in Breathing Styles."
On the surface, Breathing Styles was mostly about breathing rhythm and various sword techniques, so Masato Uchiha forwned a bit when Nagasawa said that it was related to willpower.
However, the more Nagasawa practiced Breathing Styles, the more he felt that Breathing Styles was very profound.
Let alone the unscientific Sun Breathing, just by looking at the Demon Slayer manga, anyone would realize that the stronger the belief, the sharper the blade of those Demon Slayers would be. If their belief was not strong enough but they had good swordsmanship, it would lead them to the wrong path.
Although the Shinobi wouldn't turn into Demons even if they went down the wrong path, Nagasawa did not want any rebels in his Division.
Therefore, he told Masato Uchiha to use Genjutsu to test the candidates.
But as he said, the assessment was indeed very simple. Masato Uchiha also used a very basic Genjutsu.
While under the Genjutsu, the candidates's senses would be manilpulated to a certain extent. They would forget Masato Uchiha's strength, the spies' strength, and think that everything that happened made sense.
That was also why the candidates could easily choose to stand against the intruder, because they also forgot the gap between themselves and the spy.
Moreover, those intruders were very weak. As long as they dared to pull out their swords, this Genjutsu would be dispelled.
They didn't even need to fight if their will was strong enough. Even if they simply noticed the abnormality around them, the Genjutsu would be dispelled.
There was another way to break it, which was to run to the Special Combat Division's base.
Nagasawa felt that it wasn't that difficult to deal with this Genjutsu. If the candidates did not even have the courage to pull out their sword in such a critical situation or even ran toward the Special Combat Division's base, Nagasawa believed that the Special Combat Division had no need for that kind of person.
While Nagasawa and Masato Uchiha were chatting, Kabuto suddenly opened his eyes.
"It really is a Genjutsu." Kabuto glanced at the surrounding candidates who had their eyes closed and were motionless.
When the attacker suddenly appeared and fought with Masato Uchiha, he felt that something was clearly off.
Then, he remembered about how Nagasawa told him about Genjutsu once and recalled Masato Uchiha's Sharingan. He immediately realized that he had fallen into Masato Uchiha's Genjutsu, and by realizing that, he woke up!
"That's fast. Someone already woke up." Masato Uchiha noticed Kabuto had woken up.
Kabuto carefully walked out from the crowd and headed toward Nagasawa and Masato Uchiha.
"You are not bad. You were actually able to dispel my Genjutsu so quickly." Masato Uchiha praised Kabuto.
Among the thirty candidates, there were two Uchiha. At first, Masato Uchiha thought that they should be the first to wake up.
Unexpectedly, there was actually an unexpected genius hidden among the crowd.
"You praise me too much. Can I assume that I have passed the assessment?" Kabuto said modestly.
"Yes, you have passed the assessment, but you have to wait a little longer. Once we're done with the assessment, we will go to the Special Combat Division together." Masato Uchiha said.
"Yes." Dou nodded obediently and walked toward Nagasawa.
"Wait..." Masato Uchiha was just about to tell Kabuto not to wander around, but he was already beside Nagasawa, and their following conversation certainly left Masato Uchiha speechless.
"Not bad. At least you didn't embarrass me. I will reward you with a serving of Dango when we go back." Nagasawa said as he ruffled Kabuto's hair.
Kabuto: You just want to eat it, and then bring me some while you're at it, right?" Kabuto easily saw through Nagasawa's lie.
If he wanted to reward him, he could have at least asked Nono to make him a salted sea bream!
Seeing Kabuto and Nagasawa's interaction, Masato Uchiha was puzzled as to why Kabuto was so familiar with Nagasawa.
'Nagasawa-san didn't have any relatives. Could it be his son? That wasn't right either. Nagasawa-san hadn't married yet."
"This is my younger brother, Kabuto Yakushi." Nagasawa explained after seeing Masato Uchiha's conflicted expression.
"So it's Nagasawa-san's younger brother. No wonder." Masato Uchiha felt that he understood everything. It was also understandable that Nagasawa's distant relative was doing really well.
Looking at Masato Uchiha's expression, Nagasawa knew that he was starting to imagine things. However, Nagasawa was too lazy to explain more.
"In fact, you should call him senpai when it comes to Breathing Styles. He learned from Breathing Styles much earlier than you." Nagasawa said jokingly.
"Don't tell me that he also learns Sun Breathing?" Masato Uchiha couldn't help but ask.
If one were to ask what his greatest obsession, Masato Uchiha would answer Sun Breathing.
Because of Uchiha's excellent bloodline and his own talent, Masato Uchiha rarely encountered setbacks. Sun Breathing was the biggest hurdle he had ever encountered in his life.
To think that he was forced to learn the inferior Flame Breathing because he couldn't learn Sun Breathing was like an insult to him.
However, the other two Uchiha also failed, which went to prove that it was really difficult to learn Sun Breathing.
If Kabuto managed to learn Sun Breathing, Masato Uchiha wouldn't mind calling Kabuto senpai because Kabuto had done what he could not do.
"No, he is learning Water Breathing." Nagasawa shook his head. He also wanted to find someone who could learn Sun Breathing, but it was too difficult.
Nagasawa felt that maybe only Naruto and Sasuke had a chance to learn it. To be more precise, Naruto had a higher chance.
"Is that so? It seems that Sun Breathing is indeed too difficult." Masato Uchiha recalled the hardship he felt when he practiced Sun Breathing and couldn't help but sigh.
Time slowly passed, and gradually, other examinees woke up from the Genjutsu.
The result was more or less like what Nagasawa had envisioned. Out of the thirty people, twenty-six passed the assessment, and only four failed.
After all, they had just started, so he couldn't set the bar too high. He didn't mind raising the bar higher once the Special Combat Division had more people.
