But Gekkō Raito was baffled. Come on, man, this is Tsukuyomi's illusion space! If you give me Shisui's eye here, wouldn't you just be giving me an illusion?
Just as he was thinking that, Gekkō Raito abruptly snapped back to his senses.
The blood-red world around him shattered in an instant. The Tsukuyomi Space had been dispelled.
But suddenly, Gekkō Raito realized that he really did seem to be holding something wet and soft.
He looked down!
A fresh eyeball lay quietly in his palm.
"Shisui's... Mangekyō Sharingan???"
How had Itachi done that?
Now even Gekkō Raito was intensely curious about Itachi's methods.
He could use genjutsu to deceive everyone's senses and slip something into Gekkō Raito's hand in reality without anyone noticing. This guy really deserved to be called "God Itachi" by his fans!
[Great Sage: Analysis and computation complete. The target deceived your vision through genjutsu, concealing the item at the instant the host moved to receive it. In fact, when the host grasped the object within the genjutsu, he also grasped the real item in reality.]
Gekkō Raito was still marveling at Itachi's wondrous maneuver, only for Great Sage to suddenly deliver this whole scientific explanation.
Gekkō Raito immediately found it rather underwhelming.
Sure enough, any seemingly miraculous magic trick became far less mysterious once its veil was lifted.
All right! So that's how it worked!
[Great Sage: High-level ocular power source detected. Devour and analyze Shisui's Mangekyō Sharingan?]
Gekkō Raito looked at the eye in his hand. Did that even need asking?
Of course he would devour and analyze it! Wasn't this exactly why he had come all this way and even risked entering the Tsukuyomi Space?
The black fluid substance appeared again, instantly enveloping the Mangekyō Sharingan in Gekkō Raito's hand.
