Mangekyō Sharingan-Level Genjutsu Clash

Kakashi practically appeared out of nowhere, landing directly in Yun Yan's courtyard with a single leap.

After landing and regaining his footing, Kakashi quickly looked around to check the situation, to see if it had worsened and whether the situation could still be stabilized.

Upon closer inspection, Kakashi discovered that the situation was even better than he had anticipated. Yun Yan's Forbidden Spring was peacefully nestled inside the room, seemingly unharmed.

Yun Yan was acting strangely, facing off coldly with someone. Both of them had their Mangekyō Sharingan, staring at each other without moving.

Wait! Both of them have Mangekyou Mangekyō Sharingan!?

It wasn't surprising to Kakashi that Yun Yan possessed the Mangekyō Sharingan, but how could this other person also have Mangekyō Sharingan? Could his earlier guess have come true, and the one who attacked Yun Yan really was from the Uchiha Clan?

With this trepidation and worry, Kakashi quickly took a closer look, and to his surprise, he discovered that the enemy standing opposite Yun Yan, who seemed to have attacked Izumi, was actually Uchiha Shisui!

Kakashi knew about Uchiha Shisui, who had a bad reputation among the Konoha High Command, and even knew him personally.

The reason why Uchiha Shisui had a considerable reputation among the Konoha High Command and within the Konoha, besides his Uchiha Shisui strength, was primarily due to:

Uchiha Shisui was clearly the most outstanding young man in the Uchiha Clan, yet he betrayed his own people and sided with the Hokage's faction early on, becoming one of the Lord Hokage's men.

At that time, Kakashi was considered a member of the Hokage faction, and a Hokage and staunch member at that.

Even though he was part of the Hokage lineage, Kakashi still had some reservations about Uchiha Shisui's betrayal of his own clan and his siding with the Hokage.

Because no matter what, it's really unsettling to think that the family that gave you life and raised you would betray you so easily, and then immediately side with the Hokage Konoha High Command faction, who are your family's enemies.

Therefore, Kakashi had never had a particularly good impression of Uchiha Shisui; their relationship was limited to mere acquaintance.

Seeing Uchiha Shisui here again, and discovering that it was this guy confronting Yun Yan, who also seemed to have just attacked Izumi, made Kakashi even less fond of Uchiha Shisui.

Seeing this scene before him, Kakashi hesitated to make a move. He glanced at the two of them with suspicion, then turned to look at Izumi in the house, inevitably asking her:

"What... what exactly is going on? Was it Uchiha Shisui who attacked you earlier?"

Quan nodded helplessly, indicating that was indeed the case:

"That's right, I was doing housework at home when suddenly Shisui- nii... Uchiha Shisui appeared."

When I realized that this guy had arrived suddenly and seemed to have ill intentions, I became wary and didn't make any rash moves, remaining on guard against him.

Who knew that after giving me a complicated look, Uchiha Shisui would suddenly cast Genjutsu on me and attack me directly.

Uchiha Shisui's Genjutsu was extremely powerful; I was no match for him, and even with my Three-Tomoe Sharingan, I couldn't resist it at all.

Fortunately, Yun Yan had placed a follow-up Genjutsu on me to prevent similar situations from occurring.

When I was hit by Uchiha Shisui's Genjutsu, Yun Yan's follow-up Genjutsu was triggered and activated, working on Uchiha Shisui and causing him to be controlled by Uchiha Shisui Yun Yan's Genjutsu instead.

Then, I escaped the Genjutsu without any trouble. After escaping, I realized something was wrong, so I retreated into the house.

Yun Yan returned quickly. He told me to stay inside and not move while he confronted Uchiha Shisui alone. At that time Uchiha Shisui had just broken free from the Genjutsu.

The two of them had a conversation in the courtyard, but they couldn't agree on anything, so they eventually activated their Mangekyō Sharingan and used Genjutsu to fight each other, which is why they're in this situation now."

At this point, Kakashi fully understood the cause and effect, and Kakashi looked solemnly at Yun Yan and Uchiha Shisui in the courtyard.

Just as Kakashi predicted, Yun Yan is indeed currently engaged in Genjutsu battle with Uchiha Shisui.

It's estimated that the two of them were engaged in a fierce battle in the mental realm of consciousness, and such a battle was extremely dangerous.

And...

Thinking of this, Kakashi looked at Yun Yan's Mangekyō Sharingan again, then at Uchiha Shisui's Mangekyō Sharingan, and finally stared at him intently.

That's the Mangekyō Sharingan! I never expected another pair to appear, and as soon as they appeared, they matched Yun Yan's Mangekyō Sharingan.

When did Uchiha Shisui Mangekyō Sharingan? He's been hiding it really well, only revealing it now.

Although he and many others had speculated about this before, this was the first time Uchiha Shisui had shown it so obviously.

Now, this is not just an ordinary battle of Genjutsu, but a battle between Mangekyō Sharingan, which must be far more dangerous than one can imagine.

While worrying about this, Kakashi also had some doubts and speculations.

Why did Uchiha Shisui, that brat, deliberately provoke Yun Yan?

Not only did he provoke Yun Yan, but he also deliberately chose the worst way to provoke him—to attack Quan. Is he out of his mind or just incredibly audacious?

Wait a minute! The public trial just ended, Uchiha Shisui has already provoked Yun Yan. Could it be because Uchiha Shisui is dissatisfied with the outcome of the trial?

Or is it that he wants to support the Third Hokage Hiruzen Sarutobi, which is why he's targeting Yun Yan? That's quite possible!

For a moment, Kakashi felt he had discovered a blind spot; he seemed to understand why things had happened, and he seemed to guess why Uchiha Shisui had done what he did.

At first glance, it seems absurd. Hiruzen Sarutobi has fallen to such a state, clearly beyond redemption, and Uchiha Shisui Hiruzen Sarutobi still acting like a madman, continuing to support him?

You know what, Uchiha Shisui might actually be capable of doing something like that.

After all, you can't be sure what someone who would betray their own family is thinking, or what surprising things they might do.

Having basically guessed the truth, Kakashi stood in the courtyard, looking at the two people and then at their Mangekyō Sharingan, before finally letting out a dejected sigh.

This is a battle of Genjutsu at the level of the Mangekyō Sharingan! How could he possibly get involved? How could he possibly help Yun Yan? Clearly, he couldn't even help; he could only watch the show.

Given the current situation, Kakashi truly had no other choice but to cautiously stay a short distance away from the two of them, observing how things would unfold and waiting for their Genjutsu battle to determine the victor.

Both Izumi on the other side and Kakashi on this side were very worried at this moment, but their worries were actually a bit unnecessary, because... the mental confrontation between Yun Yan and Uchiha Shisui Genjutsu not actually that dangerous.

The first difference is the level of their Mangekyō Sharingan.

Uchiha Shisui only Mangekyō Sharingan, but Yun Yan's Mangekyō Sharingan was at the Eternal level. Its power and level were completely superior to Uchiha Shisui's, making them fundamentally different things.

Furthermore, while Uchiha Shisui's Kotoamatsukami is powerful, Yun Yan's Truth and Falsehood Are Meaningless and Falsehood is even more powerful than Kotoamatsukami.

The combination of these two factors led Uchiha Shisui to make a mistake from the start; he shouldn't have used Genjutsu to fight back, it was simply humiliating.

However, on the other hand, Uchiha Shisui was most proud of his powerful Genjutsu, so when dealing with Yun Yan, he wanted to use his strongest method, his strongest Kotoamatsukami.

Who would have thought that Yun Yan's Genjutsu skills were even stronger than his? Uchiha Shisui felt like he had kicked a hornet's nest.

Of course, Uchiha Shisui is unaware that he has kicked a hornet's nest. The current situation of the Genjutsu confrontation in the connected mental world between the two is as follows:

The two sides' spirits have connected and are now in conflict. Their consciousnesses are in a vast, chaotic space where their Genjutsu manifest various strange phenomena to counter each other.

A large flock of black crows was flying around Uchiha Shisui, cawing noisily and making a disturbing noise.

A red sun was rising behind Yun Yan. This red sun was bright and blazing, exuding an aura of dominance over all others.
