Chapter 71

Saying this, he walked outward.

Kurenai Yuhi and Anko were stunned for a moment, then hurriedly caught up.

Anko walked by his side, her eyes frequently glancing at him, revealing worry and anxiety.

Seeing this, Shi Yuan shook his head inwardly; this cheap senior sister of his was too naive, and he couldn't help but laugh:

"What are Itachi worried about? Teacher was confident enough to let me come alone; do Itachi think I would be in danger?"

Seeing his confident demeanor without a hint of worry, Anko immediately relaxed.

Since Teacher Orochimaru was at ease, there must be no problem.

But on the surface, she pouted, "Who's worried about Itachi."

Anko had a bold and lively personality.

After being quiet for not long, she couldn't help herself again.

She walked to the front, turned around, and walked backward while facing Shi Yuan, asking curiously:

"Lord Hokage said your talent is terrifying and that Itachi can help people improve secret techniques. Is that true?"

Shi Yuan laughed: "If Itachi have any needs, I can help Itachi for free."

Anko's eyes darted around, "I don't need it for now, but my friend does. Right, Kurenai?"

She ran to Kurenai Yuhi's side and bumped her shoulder.

"Huh?" Kurenai Yuhi looked at Anko, then at Shi Yuan, feeling a bit flustered.

Shi Yuan raised an eyebrow, "That's fine too."

He knew that the Third Hokage likely sent Anko to try and leverage their relationship.

Now it seemed they wanted to verify his ability to develop secret techniques.

He didn't mind; on the contrary, he became interested.

Konoha had a vast array of ninjutsu, secret techniques, and forbidden techniques; it seemed he was in for a bumper harvest this time.

Before Kurenai Yuhi could say anything, Anko said impatiently:

"Hurry up and bring out a few ninjutsu for Shi Yuan to see."

Kurenai Yuhi hesitated for a moment before naming a few ninjutsu.

"Genjutsu: Demonic Illusion: False Surroundings Technique."

"Genjutsu: Demonic Illusion: Fox Spirit Technique."

"Genjutsu: Demonic Illusion: Hell Viewing Technique."

"Genjutsu: Tree Bind Death."

……

Kurenai Yuhi listed several genjutsu, most of which Shi Yuan had already mastered.

He asked in a relaxed tone: "What kind of genjutsu do Itachi want?"

Although his Genjutsu Space possessed the capabilities of all genjutsu, he naturally couldn't give that to Kurenai Yuhi.

Kurenai Yuhi was stunned and asked in shock: "I can decide?"

Seeing Shi Yuan nod, she pondered for a moment and said:

"I hope for a genjutsu that can interfere with the five senses, the kind that is not easily detected."

Shi Yuan glanced at her and said calmly: "I understand. Do not disturb me."

After saying this, he walked forward on his own.

Kurenai Yuhi and Anko followed behind him, whispering to each other.

Anko asked in a low voice: "How long do Itachi think it will take?"

Kurenai Yuhi: "Even if his talent is as the Third Hokage said, it will probably take a long time."

Anko was surprised, "But I don't think the conditions Itachi set are that difficult, right?"

Kurenai Yuhi shook her head, "My request seems simple, but in reality, it is the most difficult."

She looked at Shi Yuan's back, her gaze filled with unconscious anticipation.

The purpose of genjutsu itself is to interfere with the five senses.

Either it is not detected, or it cannot be dispelled; these are the two extremes of genjutsu.

But ordinary genjutsu are immediately detected by the enemy once cast.

If a genjutsu could go undetected, it would mean the enemy is constantly being interfered with, and the consequences would be unimaginable.

This is definitely a top-tier genjutsu in the ninja world; the difficulty is self-evident.

Hearing Kurenai Yuhi's explanation, Anko chuckled, looking somewhat gloating, which left Kurenai Yuhi speechless.

Their mission was to verify Shi Yuan's development ability; wasn't she afraid the mission would fail?

Up ahead.

Shi Yuan was thinking while walking.

As someone who was almost the number one genjutsu user in the ninja world, he naturally understood the difficulty after Kurenai Yuhi spoke.

But precisely because of that, he became interested.

"The genjutsu Kurenai Yuhi provided are all visual-based, and I have also mastered several auditory-based techniques. If I optimize them..."

As Shi Yuan continued to think and improve, countless flashes of inspiration emerged and collided in his mind.

[Itachi attempted to improve a large number of genjutsu, and the power of these genjutsu has been enhanced.]

[Itachi attempted to simulate the Zanpakuto ability of Shinji Hirako from Bleach, combined with numerous genjutsu, and created Secret Technique: Visual Interference Technique.]

[Visual Interference Technique: Through genjutsu, slightly interfere with the enemy's vision; very difficult to be detected.]

[Itachi attempted to simulate the Zanpakuto ability Mirror Flower, Water Moon of Aizen from Bleach, combined with numerous genjutsu and the foundation of the Genjutsu Space, Itachi had an epiphany and created Secret Technique: Mirror Flower, Water Moon.]

[Mirror Flower, Water Moon: Can interfere with the enemy's five senses through vision, hearing, taste, etc. The illusions are extremely realistic and difficult to distinguish from reality.]

Shi Yuan digested the information in his mind and smiled with satisfaction.

Although the current Mirror Flower, Water Moon only slightly interferes with the enemy's five senses and cannot be compared to Aizen's complete hypnosis.

But with his level of genjutsu, as long as he slightly interferes with the enemy's five senses during combat—for example, making the enemy's attack deviate by a few centimeters—the help it provides is immense.

In short, this genjutsu was extremely useful to her and had huge potential.

More importantly, Shi Yuan had a vague direction for his Sage Body cultivation.

"Not bad, not bad. Just for today's harvest, this trip to Konoha was worth it!"

Shi Yuan was very happy. With a full face of smiles, he took out a blank scroll and wrote [Visual Interference Technique] on it.

Then he stopped and handed it to Kurenai Yuhi behind him.

"Here Itachi go. This is the ninjutsu Itachi wanted. Remember, without my permission, Itachi are not allowed to tell anyone else!"

A mere [Visual Interference Technique] was not worth worrying about, and there was no need to apply a sealing formula to it.

It was just right for testing the two of them.

Kurenai Yuhi and Anko looked at him in astonishment, their mouths agape.

Anko was skeptical, "Itachi aren't lying to us, are Itachi? How could Itachi finish it so quickly?"

"Just take a look and Itachi'll know."

Shi Yuan wasn't angry; he threw the scroll directly to Kurenai Yuhi and continued thinking along his previous train of thought.

The next step for the Sage Body might require a trip to Ryuchi Cave or seeing the Death God from the Dead Demon Consuming Seal...

Kurenai Yuhi hurriedly took the scroll, opened it impatiently, and then widened her eyes in shock.

Anko, standing next to her, asked anxiously: "How is it?"

Kurenai Yuhi took a deep breath, looking at Shi Yuan's back in shock, her heart trembling.

"This technique is very strong, even more powerful than I imagined. It has perfectly achieved the effect I wanted!"

She felt that words could not express the shock in her heart at this moment.

To be able to fuse so many genjutsu in such a short time and develop a ninjutsu that was almost a genjutsu ultimate technique.

This talent was simply appalling!

For a moment, Kurenai Yuhi's gaze toward Shi Yuan's back was filled with brilliance.

Hearing this, Anko's gaze couldn't help but change, feeling both proud and a little lost.

She was proud that this person was her junior brother, but lost because she was worried that Orochimaru would completely forget her now that he had Shi Yuan.

For a time, the group fell silent.
