Chapter 112 The Hypnotic Underworld Ninja Sword Incident
night.
A golden full moon hung on the clear, pitch-black curtain, its silvery light spilling into the village of witches and dispelling the darkness.
Two figures suddenly appeared on the roof of the tall palace in the very center of the Witch Village.
"Kazuya, do you know where that guy lives?"
"Don't worry, I already figured it out during the day."
As Kazuya spoke, he lowered his head and turned his gaze to the village of shamans, then suddenly raised his hand and pointed to a tall building that was somewhat close to a palace.
"Let's move out on the third floor of this building, Hina!"
With that, Kazuya leaped down from the top of the palace, and Hina nodded and quickly followed.
"I wonder what's so special about this guy that the clan leader made us make a special trip for him—"
The two concealed their presence and used their chakra to stick to the wall of the tall building.
"Alright, since the clan leader says so, we just need to do as he says and not overthink it," Kazuya said softly to reassure them.
"Hmph! I'm going to punch this bastard a couple of times later. He's keeping me up all night, so don't try to stop me."
Kazuya raised an eyebrow upon hearing this. "Don't kill him."
After saying that, he bent down and went to a window, pressed the window frame and pushed it slightly.
"Click!"
With a soft snap, the wooden plug broke.
Kazuya gently pushed open the window and slipped inside. Hina immediately followed him through the open window.
The room was unusually dark, so dark you couldn't see your hand in front of your face, and a faint, chilling aura permeated the air.
Two pairs of scarlet eyes suddenly lit up in the darkness. They stared at each other, and Kazuya took the lead and walked to a wooden door on the left.
"Damn it! Why does it have to be that foolish woman, Miroku, who possesses such powerful abilities!"
An impatient man's voice came from inside the house.
"With my dark healing techniques combined with Miroku's sealing abilities, I'm sure I can completely integrate the power of the demon into my body! Forget about the Five Great Nations, the entire ninja world will be ours then!"
"Why?! Why is it that only a priestess controls this incredible power! Damn it! Damn it! Damn it!!"
The man roared furiously, and as soon as he finished speaking, a series of violent smashing sounds erupted from inside the room.
Hina glanced at Kazuya, who nodded slightly. Then, he raised his foot and kicked the wooden door.
"Bang!"
The wooden door slammed against the wall with a loud bang, startling the man who had been slumped over the table. He jerked his head around, glared at the two men, and shouted, "Who are you?! What brings you here—"
Before he could finish speaking, a pair of blood-red Sharingan eyes with three tomoe suddenly entered his field of vision, instantly taking over his entire mind.
The man's body trembled, then his face went blank, and he stood frozen in place.
"Kazuya, how is it?"
Hina turned to look at her companion.
"There's not much pressure. This guy's chakra is strange, but its strength isn't high."
The essence of illusion is to distort the chakra within a living being to deceive the five senses. Therefore, from this perspective, usually a...
The larger the volume and the higher the quality of chakra within an organism, the more difficult it is to interfere with its chakra, and the stronger its resistance to genjutsu naturally becomes.
The caster can also use this to probe the opponent's chakra strength.
Hina nodded, turned to look at the man, and grinned.
"Then let me test whether your illusion skills have deteriorated recently."
After saying that, Hina chuckled, then stepped forward and slammed her fist into the man's stomach.
"Bang!"
With a muffled thud, the man's body trembled, still looking dazed, but Hu Nai curled her lips, took two steps back, and revealed a disgusted expression on her face.
"This guy's body is so strange, it doesn't feel like flesh and blood, it's more like rubber—"
As he spoke, Hu Nai lowered his head slightly and turned his gaze. There was a deep dent where his fist had struck, but no blood was flowing out. Instead, the flesh was slowly healing.
"Alright, stop playing around. Once I've planted the seed of understanding in this guy, we should head back."
Kazuya took a step forward and stood in front of the man, the three black tomoe in his eye sockets slowly rotating.
"Huang Quan, don't hesitate any longer, do what you want to do now! Start immediately! Begin here..."
Start now! No preparation is needed, you can definitely do it————”
A soft whisper flowed from Kazuya's lips, seeping into Yomi's mind, surging into the depths of his heart through a surge of ocular power, and taking deep root—
This is a way for the Sharingan to use genjutsu, and it's also the origin of the name "Hypnotic Eye".
However, this kind of hypnosis generally only works when there is a significant difference in strength and it does not strongly violate the individual's will. It is far from being as effective as "Kotoamatsukami," a dōjutsu that directly and forcibly alters a person's entire mind.
After a short while, Kazuya realized that the hint had begun to take effect, turned to look at Hina, and signaled her to retreat.
Their eyes met, they nodded, then left the room, closed the wooden door, restored the window, and left Huang Quan's residence through the front door.
Konoha Village.
At dawn, the sun shone brightly, and the vast village, gradually emerging from the shadow of war, once again presented a thriving scene.
Odagiri Tadamasa, an envoy sent to Konoha by the Third Mizukage to negotiate war, was grooming himself in front of the mirror after washing up.
Yesterday, Odagiri Tadamasa, following diplomatic protocol, had his aide deliver a formal letter of invitation to the Third Hokage. Today…
That day marked the beginning of his formal social interactions with Konoha.
After ensuring his appearance was neat and tidy, Odagiri Tadamasa stepped out of the room and led his diplomatic corps toward the Hokage Building.
Their accommodation was not far from the Hokage Building, and soon the group appeared in the council chamber.
Hiruzen Sarutobi, Koharu Utatane, and Homura Mitokado were already seated on the bench at the back.
"Lord Hokage," Odagiri Tadamasa greeted him, and after seeing Sarutobi Hiruzen nod, he spoke directly: "This time, Kirigakure's sincerity is very strong. We very much hope to end this dispute caused by the misunderstanding, but we must get back the seven ninja swords lost in the war. This is Kirigakure's bottom line."
"A ninja sword?" Hiruzen Sarutobi was slightly taken aback.
"Are you referring to the seven ninja swords of the Seven Ninja Swordsmen of the Mist?"
Tadamasa Odagiri nodded, his expression solemn, and said, "Yes."
Hiruzen Sarutobi shook his head upon hearing this. "Then you may be mistaken. Our battle report never mentioned the existence of these seven ninja swords."
"Never mentioned? How is that possible! The Uchiha clan has used these seven swords on the battlefield more than once! Especially that guy with the Hiramekarei eyes, many of our people have fallen at his hands!"
