Chapter 130: Chapter 130: Genjutsu – The Art of Sensory Control!
[Water Gun: Quick Shot]!
Several fist-sized water bullets flew toward Mirai Uchiha. She sidestepped and dodged them easily.
The next moment, over a dozen shuriken followed closely behind.
Clang!
Clang!
Clang!
Swinging her long katana with precision, Mirai effortlessly deflected every single shuriken from the air.
Suddenly, Mirai's expression flickered with confusion.
The previously bright sky instantly turned gloomy; blue lightning twisted within the dark clouds.
*Boom!*
A thunderclap roared as an intense bolt of lightning struck straight down onto Mirai.
[Susanoo]!
A layer of crimson skeletal armor enveloped Mirai's body, blocking the lightning strike.
In an instant, the ground beneath Mirai transformed into a cliffside surging with molten magma.
Mirai focused her thoughts, and Gold Dust continuously poured out from her gourd, gathering beneath her feet and lifting her into the air.
However, within moments, the Gold Dust seemed to lose control and scattered downward into the magma below.
Feeling the blistering heat rising toward her face, Mirai frowned.
Terrifying ocular power erupted outward. The world around her cracked apart like a shattered mirror.
The hellish scene vanished completely.
A gentle breeze blew by, and Mirai found herself back at the original training ground.
*"Huff… huff… huff…"*
Yakumo Kurama gasped for breath, her face turning deathly pale.
Mirai stepped forward, placing a hand on Yakumo's back and channeling the Mangekyo Sharingan's ocular power into her body.
Moments later, color returned to Yakumo's face.
"Yakumo, this should be your limit."
"In battle, you must never go beyond this limit again. Otherwise, your inner balance will collapse, and Hashirama's cells will seize the chance to consume you."
Upon hearing Mirai's warning, Yakumo nodded. "I understand, Captain Mirai."
Gazing at Yakumo's delicate appearance, Mirai couldn't help but feel amazed.
What she had just endured in that illusory world could be fatal even to jonin-level ninja.
Of course, this is only provided Yakumo successfully pulls enemies into her genjutsu world.
But even so, it was still impressive enough.
Currently, despite having received a transplant of Hashirama's cells, Yakumo's chakra reserves were only at the elite chunin level.
As for her taijutsu and ninjutsu skills, they were barely above genin level.
And yet, with such abilities, she still possessed the potential to defeat jonin-ranked opponents…
There was no other way to put it—the power of Yin Release was truly monstrous.
"Captain Mirai, why do I feel like my strength has become much stronger than before?"
After hearing the question from Yakumo Kurama, Mirai Uchiha paused for a moment and explained, "The Kekkei Genkai of the Kurama clan is essentially an expression of Yin Release."
"The Mangekyo Sharingan also represents Yin Release power."
"I used the ocular power of my Mangekyo to suppress the Hashirama's cells within you. These forces complement your own Kekkei Genkai. Your current strength likely comes from unconsciously tapping into the power I've left inside you."
"This is also why Hashirama's cells will gradually go into a rampage if you use too much power."
After hearing the explanation, Yakumo Kurama suddenly understood, "So that's how it is."
No wonder she always felt unusually relaxed when creating illusions recently—it was all thanks to Captain Mirai's power.
[Ding! Congratulations, Master! Successfully acquired reward: Kekkei Genkai – Genjutsu – The Art of Sensory Control!]
Upon hearing the system's prompt in his mind, Mirai Uchiha's lips curled slightly upward.
This time he directly obtained the Kekkei Genkai of the Kurama clan—truly lucky.
"Yakumo, rest for a while."
"Hmm."
Mirai immediately activated the Flying Thunder God Technique and returned to his room, beginning to carefully sense the newly acquired reward.
Soon after, Mirai nodded in satisfaction.
Sensory Control — the ability to pull someone into a genjutsu world and manipulate their five senses.
Within this illusionary realm, everything experienced becomes real.
Whatever happens inside—including death—will be reflected as real death in the physical world.
Most importantly…
This was a group-based genjutsu!
Generally speaking, even with the Mangekyo Sharingan, its effects could only target one individual at a time.
Yet the Kurama clan's Kekkei Genkai could draw multiple people into the same illusion simultaneously.
Plus…
From observing Yakumo Kurama's example, Mirai had already realized the Mangekyo Sharingan's power could fuse with the Kurama clan's Kekkei Genkai.
In other words, unlike Yakumo who needed paintings to activate her clan's ability,
his Sharingan itself would serve as the medium.
By combining both forces, every illusion he cast would carry the effects of the Kurama clan's Kekkei Genkai!
Just thinking about it made Mirai feel excited.
Perhaps one day, as he mastered more and more power, everything would undergo a qualitative transformation.
Until ultimately achieving true 'Kekkei Mora!'
——
Land of Rain.
Heavy rainfall continued to pound the ground, sending droplets splashing everywhere.
Reality is about to change dramatically. Leave Yahiko right now and come with me."
"Otherwise… all of you will…"
Hearing the voice, Nagato turned his head and looked at the mysterious figure whose head was wrapped in a swirling white mask.
This was the second time this person had come to him.
The last time, he introduced himself as "Madara Uchiha," proposing they "act in unison." After being rejected by Nagato, he hadn't shown up for a long time. Yet now, he unexpectedly returned…
However, the topic the stranger just mentioned caught Nagato's attention. He asked somewhat puzzledly, "What happens to us?"
"You're destined to experience the cruelty of reality."
"At that point, you'll understand—mutual understanding between people simply doesn't exist."
"All that Yahiko clings to is nothing but a delusional fantasy."
"With your Rinnegan, you should be able to understand what I'm saying."
Upon hearing this, Nagato gave a cold snort: "No matter what you say, I will believe in Yahiko's ideal."
The masked man sighed, stepping forward: "I am the true guide. You'll soon realize the truth of my words…"
In Nagato's astonished gaze, the masked man's body passed straight through him, vanishing immediately afterward.
Just then, a rhythmic knocking sound came from the door.
The door swung open and a burly ninja strode in: "Yahiko, a letter from Lord Hanzo!"
