章節 96: Chapter 96 : Tsukiyomi

The moment Itachi activated his Tsukuyomi, the world around Shika changed instantly. The rooftop, the surroundings, everything disappeared, leaving him standing in a dark, nightmarish world. The sky was blood-red, and giant ominous crows circled overhead. Shika felt his body tense up, and his mind quickly registered where he was—Itachi's infamous genjutsu world.

"You're now in my Tsukuyomi," Itachi's voice echoed as he appeared before Shika, his Sharingan glowing ominously. "In here, I control time, space, and your very perception. I could kill you a thousand times, and you'd feel each death for what would seem like an eternity."

Shika remained calm, he knew something like this could happen and of course, he was ready. But he needed to buy time before he could do anything.

"This thing the power of the Mangekyo Sharingan… just like I anticipated, it's very powerful," Shika said, not asking but stating.

Itachi didn't like this at all, Shika was too calm, it like everything was under his control.

"Before you start, Itachi," Shika said with an unwavering voice, "I have one question. Why did you kill the Uchiha clan?"

Itachi's eyes narrowed. "That has nothing to do with you," he replied coldly, dismissing the question.

Shika smirked slightly, his eyes suddenly changing. The red glow of the Sharingan appeared in his eyes, shocking Itachi for the first time.

"You..." Itachi began, his voice betraying a hint of surprise.

"I believe that it has much to do with me," Shika replied still calm.

"How… I killed everyone. None was left beside…" Itachi was staying but before that Shika interrupted him.

"Beside your little brother…yes yes we know that… I am a Nara, you are not mistaken there."

"My mother was from the Nara clan," Shika said, lying convincingly, "but I recently realized after opening my eyes that my father... he was Uchiha. I don't know how this happened or why. but because of that, I have the right to know."

Itachi's expression darkened. "Even if that were true, it doesn't change anything. The reasons for what I did are not for you to know." He took a step forward, preparing to end the conversation and the fight in his own brutal way.

"Then who helped you?" Shika pressed, ignoring Itachi's warning. "You couldn't have done it alone. Who was your accomplice in the Uchiha massacre?"

Itachi's face remained impassive, but the silence that followed spoke volumes. He had no intention of revealing anything. Keeping his secret from Sasuke and the rest of the world was more important than answering Shika's questions.

Itachi's hand was ready to use the swords floating around him to pierce Shika and then repeat the process for 72 hours straight.

"Okay okay… one last question. This one got nothing to do with Uchiha." Shika shouted, stopping Itachi.

"This is a Genjutsu right… it can't be real ?" Shika asked.

"Why do you care ?" Itachi's voice was very cold right now.

"Consider it a curiosity of a fellow Genjutsu user, I am just interested. Tell me one thing. Am I right now in your mind or are you in mine ?" Shika asked while staring Itachi right in the eyes. Not a feat many could do.

Itachi didn't understand why the boy was asking this, but he replied just to end this pointless conversation and start his work.

"Just like any other Genjutsu… this is happening in your mind. Of course, if you are thinking that by disturbing your chakra you can get out, then you are mistaken." Itachi replied with a calm tone.

Shika hearing this just grinned. "Ah… I see, well thank you for telling me that, You showed me your Tsukuyomi and answered my question, Itachi. I believe it's only fair that I return the favour."

This stopped Itachi. He already had a bad feeling about this, from the moment how Shika was acting, he knew that something was wrong.

Shika then closed his eyes, confusing Itachi until something strange happened.

Suddenly, the dark world of Itachi's genjutsu started to shift. The crimson sky dimmed as an even darker presence began to consume the space around them. Itachi's eyes widened slightly, sensing the change.

"Sorry, these binding vows are tricky things. Needed a little time to come up with a perfect vow to use this without hand signs." Shika replied with a smile.

"You... what are you doing?" Itachi demanded, his voice sharper now.

Shika's voice remained calm, almost amused. "Welcome to my domain, Itachi."

"Consider this a very similar place like your Tsukyomi. I can't cast this in the real world yet, but just as you said, we are currently in my mind. Here, hehehe… "

"Domain Expansion… Chimera Shadow Garden." Shika chuckled and then finally said this. The darkness then completely covered the entire Tsukyomi world.

The world around them darkened further, the red of Tsukuyomi being swallowed up by endless shadows. Tendrils of dark energy stretched out from the ground, curling and twisting like vines. Shika stood in the centre of it all, completely in control. The air grew colder, and Itachi could feel the oppressive weight of Shika's power pressing against his own.

"You explained Tsukuyomi to me, Itachi," Shika continued. "So, let me explain Shadow Garden to you. Here, shadows rule. This is my world now, where I control everything."

"This is the Peak of Jujutsu…" Shika replied as he felt powerful inside his domain.

Itachi's Sharingan flared in response. "Jujutsu ?" he muttered, regaining his composure.

'Domain? Jujutsu? I am sure the Nara clan have no such things. What is this…' Itachi wondered thinking of a way to get out of there, but unfortunately for him, even his own consciousness was trapped inside as domains are created in a way to trap the opponent inside them.

"Why can't I sense any chakra in here ?" Itachi finally asked, that was the most suspicious thing according to him.

"Hehehe… you'll know," Shika said calmly. His shadows surged forward, wrapping around Itachi like chains, pulling him into the darkness. Itachi struggled to break free, but the shadows resisted his attempts.

But that wasn't it, Itachi saw many different kinds of animals forming out of the Shadows and attacking him, all the attacks were coming at him at random at this time.

Even his Sharinga was having hard time noticing the attacks.

Itachi attempted to dispel the shadows with his immense genjutsu prowess, but Shika's domain wasn't a Genjutsu. The shadows adapted, reforming faster than Itachi could destroy them. At first, Itachi thought that this was something similar to Tsukyomi, that the boy also opened his Mangekyo but now he knew that wasn't the case.

Because no matter what kind of power Mangekyo grants, there should be a trail of Chakra. But here, he can't feel anything.

"Your strength lies in controlling your opponent's perception," Shika said, as his shadow tendrils tightened around Itachi. "But the shadows doesn't care about perceptions…"

"Now than, lets dance…" Shika smirk and disappears in Shadows only to add in on all the fun.

章節 97: Chapter Ch 97 : Tsukiyomi 2

As Itachi's Tsukuyomi crumbled under the overwhelming force of Shika's Shadow Garden, the backlash hit him like a wave crashing against the shore. His eyes, usually so composed and sharp, widened in shock as the strain from losing control of his genjutsu took a toll plus all the beating he got inside that 100 per cent guaranteed hit zone came crashing down on him.

The mental assault left him staggered, a bead of sweat dripping down his face. His Sharingan flickered briefly, and his knees buckled as he struggled to maintain his composure.

Itachi hadn't expected this. Being bested inside his own Tsukuyomi was something he never imagined possible, yet here he was, trying to catch his breath, his body trembling from the immense backlash of losing control inside the mental realm.

It felt as if his mind had been ripped apart and put back together, the strain nearly unbearable.

"And no, I'm no Genin, sir. I am already a Chunin." Shika replied with a smirk though he himself wasn't feeling great due to the strain that particularly complicated Domain put on him.

Jiraiya, watching from a distance, raised an eyebrow. He had sensed something happening between Shika and Itachi, but the sudden shift in Itachi's demeanour surprised even him.

"What the... Did Shika really do that?" he muttered to himself, a rare look of astonishment crossing his face.

He knew that the boy was talented but to do this to Itachi of all people... Jiraiya can't help but gulp seeing the boy in a new light.

Kisame, who had just returned after finally losing with Shika's massive summon Ox, (actually the Ox disappeared when Shika used his Domain inside his mind.) saw Itachi in his weakened state and frowned.

"What the hell happened to you, Itachi?" he asked, his voice gruff. He wasn't used to seeing Itachi in such a vulnerable position. His partner was usually the one handling situations with ease, but now, he seemed shaken.

Itachi didn't answer immediately. He took a slow, deep breath, forcing his body to stay upright. The mental strain was still pounding in his head, like a relentless hammer. "It's nothing," he finally said, his voice barely above a whisper.

"Doesn't look like nothing," Kisame remarked, glancing back at both Shika and Jiraiya. By all means, if out of two, someone can do this to Itachi then it should be Jiraiya right ! even his doing that was a little hard to believe, not unexpected but still hard to believe. So the reason the question was why the hell was Itachi looking at the boy with those eyes? Like that boy was the one who put him in that condition.

"That kid... he's more trouble than I thought," Itachi said, making Kisame's suspicion clear but his own mind was having a hard time believing this.

Jiraiya stepped forward, positioning himself between Shika and the Akatsuki members, still cautious. "Whatever happened, it's over now," Jiraiya said, his tone serious. "I'm not letting either of you lay a finger on Naruto or Shika."

Itachi closed his eyes for a brief moment, his expression unreadable as he steadied himself. Despite the overwhelming strain, he didn't let any more weakness show. He had lost inside his own Tsukuyomi, but that was something he'd keep to himself. For now, retreat was the only option.

Kisame clicked his tongue, clearly not pleased, but he wasn't about to go against Itachi's unspoken command. "Guess this isn't our day," he grumbled before stepping back.

Itachi glanced one last time at Shika, his eyes cold and complicated. Then, without another word, he and Kisame turned and disappeared into the shadows, leaving Jiraiya, and Shika behind.

---

As soon as the Akatsuki members disappeared, Naruto's energy exploded. He was hiding all this time and Shika even put a Shadow Clone to bind him so that he wouldn't come out. He was practically bouncing in place, his face lit up with excitement. "Shika, why did you do that ?" Naruto shouted.

"Where are those guys, why didn't you let me get them!"

 "What did you do, and since when, you became a Chunin ?" he shouted, looking between Jiraiya and Shika with wide eyes.

"What even happened back there? How did they just leave like that? And Shika, what did you do to that guy with the Sharingan? He looked really messed up! And that Ox! Where did that thing come from?!"

Naruto's barrage of questions came all at once, barely giving Shika or Jiraiya time to process what he was saying. Shika, calm as always, just gave Naruto a small smile and shook his head slightly.

Jiraiya chuckled, his arms crossed. "Calm down, Naruto! You're going to explode if you keep talking that fast."

Naruto pouted but didn't stop. "But, come on, Pervy Sage! why didn't you let me fight? Shika hoarded all the fun! There was this huge Ox! And then the other guy looked like he was about to pass out! What did you do, Shika?!"

Jiraiya turned to Shika with a curious look on his face. "I have to admit, kid, even I'm a bit curious about what happened. Itachi was perfectly fine one second, and the next, he looked like he'd been through hell. Did you do something to him? And where did you summon that giant Ox from?"

Shika paused for a moment, thinking carefully before answering. "Let's say that I reverse Itachi's Genjutsu on him and leave it there. It wasn't easy, but I managed to overwhelm him mentally. As for the Ox… that's one of my Summon." Shika replied but Jiraiya didn't buy that at all, like there exists someone who is better than Itachi freaking Uchiha in Genjutsu. At least not a 12-year-old.

Jiraiya raised an eyebrow. "Summon, huh? You've got some interesting tricks up your sleeve, boy." Jiraiya said, though he didn't ask further clearly knowing that Shika didn't want to explain but narrowed his eyes, clearly telling him, that he ain't buying that nonsense he just said.
