Chapter 25: Chapter 24
As Asuma was explaining how to escape genjutsu, the other students in the class turned yellow from his extreme expressions and found it scary. Meanwhile, Ibiki raised his hand to cover his face.
Sarutobi Asuma's answer was not wrong, but it was not right either. Using pain to escape genjutsu was too primitive, and only a low-level genjutsu could be defeated with pain. If the genjutsu user was good enough at genjutsu, the feeling of pain would already be part of the genjutsu. The highest level of genjutsu could even directly influence people's decisions or destroy their perception of time.
"Sit down Asuma! This answer is also wrong, don't use this tactic unless it's your last choice, because the chances of it working are too low to be worth it."
"But teacher!"
"Shut up Asuma and read fewer comics."
The teacher looked at the last two people to raise their hands and saw that one of them had the same answer as Asuma because he had put his hand down when he told Asuma that his answer was wrong.
The teacher realized that he could not teach the lesson he wanted to teach the children, so in desperation, he looked at the last person. This time it was a girl, a sweet girl with black hair and bright red eyes. Morino Ibiki knew whose daughter this girl was and her answer was probably the right one, but... This was not the conclusion he wanted to reach.
Meanwhile, Yuta secretly laughed at the other children's answers and decided to be part of the charade himself.
Ibiki Morino was surprised to see his lazy student, who always fell asleep in a corner, raising his hand. It was not at all normal to see him actively participating in class. Nevertheless, Ibiki remembered that this boy belonged to the Senju clan and, hoping for a miracle, gave him the right to speak.
Even the children, who until now had been talking among themselves in hushed voices in the back, fell silent when they saw Yuta standing up to speak. Yuta had a strange hold over the class, but he had done nothing to gain it. Even though Yuta had done nothing, the young boys' instincts were not blinded like an adult's and they could feel deep in their hearts that he was a monster.
Yuta didn't speak after he stood up and sat on the table, propping himself up on one knee. As Ibiki looked at the way he was sitting, he felt another tantrum slowly approaching him.
"If I am under a genjutsu I will attack in every direction with the most destructive jutsu I know. If the user of the genjutsu dies, the genjutsu will be automatically broken."
Kakashi covered his face in embarrassment and pretended not to recognize his seatmate, while Sarutobi Asuma laughed openly.
"If you get under a genjutsu, using ninjutsu won't be so easy, Yuta. Also, if you have teammates around you, your attack will affect them as well."
Yuta bowed his head a little, letting his hair hang down the sides of his head, and said, "A necessary sacrifice," in a voice that chilled the whole class. Sensing the seriousness in his words, the children forgot to laugh even at the answer he had just given.
Kakashi slowly walked away to the corner of his seat, looking through Yuta's hair into his sad-looking black eyes. Asuma stopped laughing at his words, swallowed hard, and decided to stay away from this madman in the future.
Ibiki picked up a book from the lectern where he had been lecturing as if nothing had happened, and he rolled it up hard.
Yuta felt the chakra that Ibiki had placed under his feet, sensed what was coming, and jumped off the table saying "I'm just kidding!" but Ibiki had already used his body flicker technique to catch Yuta in mid-air and hit him hard on the head with the book in his hand.
Yuta was on the floor holding his head, saying something like " that place was already hurting" and suffering in pain, while Ibiki was looking at him with widened eyes. He had used the body flicker technique so Yuta couldn't react, but Yuta almost ran away from him, let alone react. When Ibiki realized that this silent student was hiding something, he grinned as if he realized that he had a student who could potentially win him the bonus in today's competition.
"Sensei is smiling scary again."
"I bet he's going to make us clean the school all day again."
"Uh, my goosebumps."
Ibiki heard the children whispering and angrily wiped the smile that rarely appeared on his face.
"Kurenai Yuhi, you tell me about it."
The pretty red-eyed girl immediately stood up and began to speak. "The most basic and guaranteed way to get rid of a genjutsu is to create a strong flow of chakra inside your body, teacher."
"That's right!"
With this answer, Ibiki gave up trying to confront his students from ordinary families with the truth, for today's competition would teach them enough lessons. For some reason, the big clan kids in his class seemed to be a bit stupid in general.
"Listen to me carefully, brats! Genjutsu is created when a ninja controls the chakra flow of a target's cerebral nervous system, thus affecting their five senses. Genjutsu affects all creatures with a prosencephalon structure in their brain. So dogs, cats, and even whales can be subjected to genjutsu, but insects cannot be genjutsu.
There are also many different techniques for performing genjutsu. For example, you can use mist ninjutsu to trap people in a genjutsu. Of course, there are other methods such as eye contact, but that's not my specialty. It is enough if you know this much."
