Bab 22: Chapter 22: Genjutsu Unveiled
In the evening, after finishing dinner, Kurenai bid farewell to Azumi.
She chatted with Kiyoshi for a while longer before excusing herself for the night.
Unlike usual, Kiyoshi didn't try to follow Kurenai out.
Once Azumi went to bed, Kiyoshi quickly returned to his room, eager to open the Genjutsu scroll handed to him by her.
[D-Rank Genjutsu: Mist Servant Jutsu, Demonic Illusion: Hell Viewing Jutsu...]
[C-Rank Genjutsu: Demonic Illusion: False Surroundings Jutsu, Sly Mind Affect Jutsu...]
[B-Rank Genjutsu: Demonic Illusion: Mirror Heaven and Earth Change, Demonic Illusion: Tree Binding Death...]
[A-Rank Genjutsu: Nirvana Temple Jutsu, Infinite Darkness Jutsu...]
A series of Genjutsu's lay listed before him, leaving Kiyoshi dazzled.
Moreover, some high-level Genjutsu appeared on the list.
Among them was the Demonic Illusion: Mirror Heaven and Earth Change, a rare and powerful counter-genjutsu that could reflect any illusion cast on the user back onto the enemy.
When paired with a Dojutsu like the Sharingan, it allowed the user to immediately see through an enemy's Genjutsu, break it in an instant, and rebound the full effect onto the caster.
Then, there was the A-rank Infinite Darkness Jutsu, a Genjutsu capable of blocking all light, casting the target into an abyssal darkness.
Clearly, this was a Jutsu specifically developed by the Senju clan to counter the Uchiha, neutralizing their visual advantage and seizing control of the fight.
"Impressive! As expected from the Senju clan's Genjutsu master, it even has sound-based Genjutsu's."
What truly surprised Kiyoshi was the inclusion of sound-based Genjutsu.
The A-rank Demonic Flute: Phantom Sound Chains, a sound-based Genjutsu, was challenging to master, yet if used adeptly in battle, it could catch any opponent off guard.
The best part?
It required no musical instruments or other mediums to activate.
The Jutsu could be cast stealthily with only sound, leaving Kiyoshi grinning from ear to ear.
While there was no S-rank Genjutsu and no other signature Senju Jutsus, the scroll was still a treasure trove for him.
And especially when used alongside his Sharingan.
These Jutsus alone were enough to put any opponent on edge.
Additionally, having these Genjutsu, along with the wisdom and experience from his great grandmother, who had recorded insights on Genjutsu, Kiyoshi knew that he might one day develop his own unique Genjutsu's.
….
Unrolling the not-so-large scroll revealed a length of nearly ten meters, circling the entire room.
"Wood Clone Jutsu!" Kiyoshi formed hand seals decisively.
In an instant, branches sprouted from his body like the limbs of a towering tree, twisting and morphing at visible speed into humanoid forms.
One after another, nearly a dozen wooden clones filled the small room.
If there had been more space, Kiyoshi could have created even more clones, as his chakra reserves were still ample.
"Alright, I'll leave it to all of you!"
Kiyoshi instructed, "Each of you, focus on mastering a single Genjutsu. Once you've mastered it, move on to the next."
For someone like Kiyoshi, possessing wooden clones that retained a portion of his abilities—even his Kekkei Genkai—who could transfer memories and experiences upon dispersing, there was no better way to accelerate his training.
Not to mention, the Wood Clone Jutsu allowed him to allocate chakra in adjustable proportions, unlike the Shadow Clone Jutsu, which demanded an even split.
In Kiyoshi's case, with his ample chakra reserves, these wood clones would remain until they took severe damage.
As someone born with a naturally immense chakra capacity, the Wood Clone Jutsu was an ideal training partner, an absolute cheat for rapid learning.
Even without a tailed beast's chakra, his powers as the Wood-Wood Fruit user combined with the natural vitality of the Senju made Kiyoshi's recovery abilities nearly on par with those of a Jinchuriki of the Tailed beasts.
If anything, he might even surpass them.
He barely needed to worry about exhaustion.
Worst case, he could just sleep it off by dawn.
"Got it!"
"No problem!"
"Leave it to us!"
One by one, red eyes with three tomoe whirled into view.
Each clone, a perfect replica of Kiyoshi, took a seat around the scroll that lined the room.
With focused expressions, they began their diligent study and training of the Genjutsu recorded on the scroll.
"I'll take on one of the A-rank Genjutsu myself."
Kiyoshi's gaze fell on the characters of an A-rank Genjutsu written on the scroll before him.
A soft chuckle escaped him, "To drag everything into the depths of darkness, a relentless Genjutsu within merciless shadows. The Infinite Darkness Jutsu, huh?"
With the power of his Sharingan and his natural intuition, Kiyoshi felt confident that mastering the Infinite Darkness Jutsu wouldn't be too challenging.
"This Jutsu would be perfect for Kurenai to study, given her exceptional Genjutsu talent," he murmured, closing his eyes briefly.
When he reopened them, his red eyes spun with three black tomoe locked in place.
Fully absorbed, Kiyoshi began his focused training on the Infinite Darkness Jutsu.
