In the woods, a gentle breeze swept across the land.
The swaying branches rustled against one another, producing the unique notes of the forest.
Phantom was a world that disrupted an opponent's mind, causing abnormalities in all five senses and trapping them in illusions.
Reid and Mirai stood facing each other. She solemnly explained the basic principles of illusions.
As a form of mental attack, illusion arts were one of the three essential skills of a ninja.
Many ninjas could use illusion arts, but most merely used them as support. Very few truly excelled at them.
Among them, many lacked the Yin Release chakra attribute, while others lacked precise control over their chakra.
In short, learning illusions was easy, but mastering them was difficult.
However, if Mirai wanted to succeed, simple study would not be enough. What he needed was mastery.
"I know the principles. Let's get to the point!" Mirai insisted, claiming he could recite illusion theory backward.
"Hmph, look at how confident you are..." Shinku's expression darkened as he gave a cold laugh. "Do you know that you're already under my illusion?"
"What?" Mirai's expression finally changed.
Under an illusion? When had Shinku formed hand seals?
No, no.
Some simple illusions did not require hand seals.
A fox's mind technique? Wasn't that an art?
Looking at Shinku's faintly smiling expression, cold sweat gradually broke out along Mirai's temples.
"Hmph, you little brat! My taijutsu may not be as good as yours, but when it comes to illusions... hmph!!" Reid did not attack. Instead, she stood with her hands on her hips.
She wanted to see how long it would take Mirai to dispel this illusion.
Naturally, Mirai knew how to dispel illusions. There was only one principle: restore the body's disrupted chakra to its normal state.
