Chapter 8 - Chapter 8: Genjutsu! Uchiha Shisui

"Itachi, I came to see you today because I want to ask you to take me to see someone!" After a moment of silence, Uchiha Sora stated the purpose of his visit.

"See who?" Uchiha Itachi set aside his thoughts and asked.

"Uchiha Shisui!"

Uchiha Itachi was slightly taken aback.

"Heh, I've been having some questions about genjutsu lately. Senior Uchiha Shisui is the strongest genjutsu Ninja of the Uchiha Clan, and I hope to seek his guidance." Uchiha Sora smiled and added, "Itachi, I wonder if you would do me this favor?"

Uchiha Itachi naturally would not refuse Uchiha Sora's request.

The next day, he brought news to Uchiha Sora: "In three days, meet at the small woods!"

...

"So you are the genius Ninja who graduated in the same year as Itachi? Uchiha Sora, I have heard Itachi talk about you for a long time."

Three days passed quickly. In the same small woods, Uchiha Shisui and Itachi arrived together. Seeing Uchiha Sora waiting there, Uchiha Shisui smiled and spoke.

Uchiha Shisui held two titles: the Uchiha Clan's strongest genjutsu Ninja, and Body Flicker Shisui! He was an absolute legendary figure.

However, although Uchiha Shisui was very strong now, he was not actually very old—only a few years older than himself and Itachi. He probably hadn't awakened the Mangekyo yet.

In Uchiha Sora's view, his future death was purely a plot-mandated kill.

"Senior Shisui, even compared to Itachi, I am far behind. In front of you, I can hardly be called a genius," Uchiha Sora said modestly.

"Heh, Uchiha Sora, I can sense that your Chakra aura is much stronger than Itachi's!" Uchiha Shisui said with a smile, shaking his head.

Beside them, Uchiha Itachi's face showed a look of shock; it seemed he had not expected his Big Brother Shisui to evaluate Uchiha Sora this way.

He had thought that he had already left Uchiha Sora behind.

"As expected of Senior Shisui! I really couldn't hide it from you," Uchiha Sora said helplessly.

For a powerhouse like Uchiha Shisui who specialized in genjutsu, his sensory abilities were definitely not something the current Itachi could compare to. It was actually quite normal for him to be able to sense the strength of the Chakra within Uchiha Sora.

Uchiha Shisui waved his hand and smiled: "I heard from Itachi that you want to learn genjutsu from me?"

Uchiha Sora nodded.

Uchiha Shisui frowned and said: "For Uchiha Clan Members, if you haven't shown a specific talent for genjutsu from the beginning, there is no need to study it. Because after Uchiha Clan Members awaken their eyes, as long as they reach the Three-Tomoe Sharingan, they will naturally master some Sharingan genjutsu. I think it would be better for you to spend your training time in areas where you excel."

"Thank you for your guidance, Senior Shisui, but I want to lay a good foundation for genjutsu early on," Uchiha Sora smiled and said. "I have a request, and I hope Senior Shisui will definitely agree to it!"

"It seems your will is very firm! Go ahead and say it!" Uchiha Shisui was slightly startled, then nodded.

"Please use your Sharingan genjutsu on me. Let me personally experience the power of the strongest genjutsu Ninja. I think it will be enlightening for me!" Uchiha Sora said.

"It seems this is your method of cultivation. Not bad. Experiencing the power of the strong can indeed achieve better enlightenment results." Uchiha Shisui looked at Uchiha Sora with appreciation and smiled: "I agree to your request."

After speaking, the environment around Uchiha Sora suddenly underwent an earth-shattering change.

He saw that Uchiha Shisui and Itachi in front of him had disappeared, and the surrounding small woods had also vanished, replaced by a scorched earth like purgatory, and the sky had turned pitch black.

A pair of huge pupils, resembling a full moon, appeared in the pitch-black sky.

Within the pupils, a pair of Three-Tomoe Sharingan slowly rotated.

This was Uchiha Shisui's Sharingan!

At this moment, Uchiha Sora discovered that his body had been firmly fixed in place, unable to move a single inch.

Countless black crows flew in from all directions, converging into Uchiha Shisui's appearance.

Uchiha Shisui looked at Uchiha Sora with a smile: "This is a genjutsu space I wove myself. The technique trapping you is called the Binding Technique!"

"In order for you to feel the power of genjutsu more clearly, I will now carry out some attacks on you." Uchiha Shisui drew his Ninja sword and, while speaking, stabbed towards Uchiha Sora's body.

With a squelch, Uchiha Sora's abdomen was instantly pierced. The realistic sensation of pain made him frown deeply, and he almost cried out in pain.

However, for the sake of his pride, he forcibly suppressed the pain and did not make a sound.

"Not bad, your will is very firm. Now I can rest easy. I can let you continue to feel the power of genjutsu until you can no longer hold on. How much you can comprehend from this will depend on you yourself," Uchiha Shisui said with appreciation.

Uchiha Sora nodded. He couldn't help but sigh inwardly that Uchiha Shisui's genjutsu was indeed stronger than one could imagine. This was only a genjutsu released using the Three-Tomoe Sharingan, yet it already possessed functions like Itachi's future Tsukuyomi. One could only imagine how strong his Kotoamatsukami genjutsu would be after Uchiha Shisui awakened his Mangekyo!

No wonder it was called the strongest genjutsu! It was truly worthy of its reputation!

Squelch! Squelch!

Uchiha Shisui stabbed into Uchiha Sora's body, one sword strike after another.

Just as Uchiha Sora took the fifth stab.

"Ding! Your Sharingan has sensed the suppression from a Three-Tomoe Sharingan genjutsu, and has automatically trained and evolved into a Three Tomoe! Additionally, you have awakened a new talent: Genjutsu Immunity!"

In the next instant, Uchiha Sora's eyes instantly turned a scarlet color, and a pair of Three-Tomoe Sharingan were clearly reflected in Uchiha Shisui's eyes.

"What? Sharingan! And it's actually a Three Tomoe!?" Uchiha Shisui, who was about to stab with his sword, could not help but show a look of shock on his face.

But he did not believe that Uchiha Sora's Three Tomoe could break his meticulously designed genjutsu.

However, the facts once again shocked Uchiha Shisui. Just as his sword was about to pierce into Uchiha Sora's body, the tip of the sword suddenly stopped.

The entire genjutsu space was instantly covered with countless cracks.

The next moment, the genjutsu space collapsed with a bang!

Both of them returned to reality.

Uchiha Shisui let out a muffled grunt and took a step back, his Sharingan stinging slightly.

And Uchiha Sora also knelt on one knee on the ground, panting with a look of exhaustion.

"Big Brother Shisui? Uchiha Sora? Your eyes?" The events in the genjutsu space only happened in an instant. In Itachi's eyes, just after the two had finished speaking, one had grunted and stepped back, and the other had knelt on the ground panting.

It was clear that both sides had already conducted a contest in genjutsu!

But what Uchiha Itachi could not fathom was why Big Brother Shisui, who had the strongest genjutsu, would be injured?

And what shocked Itachi even more was that Uchiha Sora had actually directly activated the Three-Tomoe Sharingan!

What on earth was going on here?

Itachi was a bit confused watching from the side.

Could it be that Big Brother Shisui's genjutsu had actually been effectively countered by Uchiha Sora?

How was this possible?

He couldn't believe it no matter what!

In the Uchiha Clan, or even in all of Konoha, who could make Big Brother Shisui, with his strongest genjutsu, suffer a loss?

I'm afraid even the Hokage couldn't do it, right?
