Chapter 472 - Chapter 471: Mirror Flower, Water Moon (Kyoka Suigetsu)

As soon as the words fell,

It was like a heavy hammer smashing down, and the entire Tsukuyomi space let out a muffled sound.

Then, it shattered like a broken mirror.

Countless fragmented genjutsu spaces reflected Aizen's perfectly intact, smiling face.

He was like a predator toying with its prey, showing condescending pity and a faint mockery.

"The Tsukuyomi space was…"

Uchiha Itachi was stunned at first, then his eyes widened, revealing an expression of disbelief.

"Don't you believe it?"

Aizen stood calmly in place, his smile never changing.

Dressed in a white haori, his warm and gentle face was as if he were reminiscing with a familiar friend.

But Uchiha Itachi felt a chill run through him, thinking, "Those eyes…"

Cold, emotionless.

Others might think Uchiha Itachi was cold-blooded for slaughtering his clan and betraying the village, but only he knew that his coldness was merely a disguise.

It was precisely because he yearned for peace, because he loved the world, and possessed a Fire Will like fire, that he was willing to sacrifice himself and fall into the abyss.

Although in the eyes of normal people, this kind of love was particularly twisted, a kind of extreme and deformed love.

But it was the will that supported Uchiha Itachi to this day.

Therefore,

He was able to understand the coldness hidden beneath Aizen's gentle smile better than anyone else.

It was a gaze that transcended life, as if viewing everyone as mere weeds that could be killed at will.

This kind of look,

He had only seen it on that mad scientist Orochimaru.

He never expected that Aizen, who was said to be as gentle as moonlight and water, was actually a deeply hidden, cold-blooded madman.

"Most people are like this; when they encounter power beyond their comprehension, they become confused and hesitant. This is not good, because… you will die!"

Pfft!

A severed hand flew out.

Blood splattered.

Uchiha Itachi lowered his head, belatedly feeling the pain from his severed right hand surge like a tide.

"Impossible, he clearly didn't move, he's still standing there!"

A look of horror flashed in Uchiha Itachi's eyes. He bent his legs and leaped onto the tree trunk behind him, landing at a higher position.

From above, he gravely looked down at the man below.

Taijutsu?

Even a taijutsu master like Might Guy couldn't strike silently and sever his hand before he could react.

Space ability, or some peculiar special means?

Neither is possible!

Although the Reincarnation Game's abilities are bizarre, as long as they are released, their energy fluctuations can be detected.

Even if the attack was perfectly concealed when launched,

It's impossible for the residual energy to go undetected after the attack ends.

However,

Ignoring the pain, Uchiha Itachi plunged his fingers into the bloody wound. His Mangekyo Sharingan spun frantically, but he still couldn't detect any residual energy from Aizen's attack.

Could it be… genjutsu?

Uchiha Itachi frowned deeply.

It wasn't that he was unwilling to consider genjutsu, but he himself was one of the Reincarnation Game's top genjutsu masters.

The difficulty for Aizen to play genjutsu in front of him without being detected was unimaginable.

According to the intelligence he had gathered,

Aizen had only been a player for a few months. Even if he was exceptionally talented, it was impossible for him to defeat him.

Moreover, the aura he exuded was only [Tier 2 (Elite-grade)]…

Suddenly, Uchiha Itachi thought of something amiss, but before he could react,

His left arm was severed.

"Genjutsu: Black Flames!"

Layers of transparent black flames enveloped Uchiha Itachi, preventing him from being inexplicably ambushed again.

"[Dark Curse Master Lv.44],"

Uchiha Itachi took a deep breath, his gaze not on Aizen but observing his surroundings, and said, "I've seen through your trick. It's a very special illusion. Although I can't believe it, even I can't see through it."

A genjutsu that even a [Tier 2 (Mangekyo Sharingan)] cannot see through has only two possibilities.

One is that the skill quality is very high, at least an Ebon-grade skill dropped by a genjutsu-type Dark Boss after the new season started.

The other is that the opponent's spiritual attribute far exceeds his own.

In the new season, although several Dark Boss maps have been conquered, they all seem to be common energy and physical attribute monsters like [Grandma Tree Demon] and [Black Wind Mountain Bandits]…

Only one [Phantom Eye], [Iron Skin] dual-attribute Dark Boss, the [Centipede Daoist]'s Daoist temple, was also conquered by the Navy Alliance.

Because the Navy Alliance did not have players specializing in genjutsu, the spoils were thrown into the exchange, but because the price was too high, they have not been sold yet.

"However, while Ebon-grade genjutsu abilities are powerful, their consumption is also immense!"

Uchiha Itachi exhaled continuously. With each breath, wisps of black soul energy intertwined with the black transparent flames.

Finally, a flame-shaped Mangekyo Sharingan condensed, its tomoe spinning frantically.

"Aizen has displayed Elite-grade strength from beginning to end, yet he can effortlessly wound me. He must be concealing his aura through some means."

"If it's Ebon-grade genjutsu, it can't be concealed for long. Therefore… Aizen's spiritual attribute must be exceptionally powerful for him to be able to use ordinary genjutsu to even deceive my Mangekyo Sharingan!"

The black flames behind Uchiha Itachi, with their spinning tomoe, were like the hand of a god.

Bang.

The black flame-like hand slammed down, the ground caved in, and flames burned within the crater.

Aizen made no move, still standing calmly in place.

"This figure is an illusion!"

As soon as the words fell,

Uchiha Itachi's Soul Black Flames had already fallen like an overwhelming tide.

Aizen seemed to have evaporated, leaving no bones behind.

"Is that really the case?"

Uchiha Itachi didn't detect any aura fluctuations, but he absolutely didn't believe that Aizen had been burned to death just like that.

Then there was only one explanation:

This figure was an illusion; even if it was killed, Aizen would be perfectly intact.

"I have to say, purely in terms of combat talent and intuition, you are among the very best of all ninjas in the entire Ninja World."

Aizen's voice came from all directions.

Uchiha Itachi listened carefully but couldn't find any clues or flaws.

His heart was heavy.

It was absolutely impossible for him to raise his spiritual attribute to a level that could overwhelm him in just a few months of becoming a Reincarnation Game player.

The fact that Aizen could do it meant that he already possessed powerful spiritual energy when he received the game invitation.

Such a person had never appeared in the Ninja World.

Yet he was willing to hide his strength and become the Hokage's right-hand man. Uchiha Itachi absolutely did not believe that Aizen was doing it to inherit the Fire Will.

The other party definitely had other motives.

"However… your spiritual flaw is too great, like a sky pierced by a blade."

Pfft.

An ordinary slash came.

Uchiha Itachi's entire body of Soul Black Flames burned fiercely, like a torch.

He knew very well that although the sound of the slash came from behind, he was under the influence of Aizen's genjutsu.

The real slash could very well be coming from somewhere else.
