Mind Games with Seven-Scaled Sensei

[Sharingdork]

Sits ontop of the middle log in the Third Training Ground, my back to the forest, my legs crossed over each other, my hands in a meditative position, eye's closed.

Thanks for doing this, sensei.

 

[The Seven-Scaled boy]

Tell me what genjutsu? Which clan are reknowned for their mastery of genjutsu? How do you thik genjutsu works? How would you use it?

 

[Sharingdork]

Genjutsu is a type of jutsu where the user channels their chakra into a mental assaut on the victim, creating an illusion of pain, being trapped, a change in landscape, emotional distress, ect. It is normally initiated through eye contact, but could be made though contact of any of the senses.
The Uchiha clan is renown for the genjutsu, especially Tsukuyomi. Another clan known for genjutsu would be a clan from a filler arc, the Kurama Clan. Individuals who are known for genjutsu are Kurenai and Tayuya.
Genjutsu works by channeling chakra through one of the mediums that our senses can recieve (normally sight, but as Shikamaru stated when fighting Tayuya, it could be any of the senses) in order to send that chakra into the opponents mind. This, in turn, allows the user to make an assault on the victims mind, making them experience non-existant pain, or binding them in some way (the most common uses that come to my mind).
Now, this last question confuses me slightly, so I'll answer both questions that come to mind. The first question is, 'how would one you (one) use genjutsu?' One would use genjutsu to make the victim believe that they have exerienced a great deal of pain in order to bring them physically to their knees so they could have an easier strike. They would also use genjutsu to extract information from victims, as well as straight out bind them in place for a partner to attack. The other question I saw was, 'how would you (me) use genjutsu?' I personally would use genjutsu as a distraction (like Kabuto's feather genjutsu that put's people to sleep) in order to get in another attack, with a higher success rate than if I did not use genjutsu. To assault an enemies mind would be a great skill to have, as it would disorient them in order to strike with another attack.

Would you like me to go into further detail for any question, or maybe even have new questions for me?

 

[The Seven-Scaled boy]

Very good. Now, you must do some research in order to continue. Genjutsu is ased upon the jamming of the brain's cranial nerves by sending disruptive chakra waves into them. Therefore, our senses are dull. please bring me a list of all pairs of cranial nerves.

 

[Sharingdork]

•I : Olfactory Nerve-smell
•II : Optic Nerve-vision
•III : Occulomotor Nerve-eyelid/ball movement
•IV : Trocheal Nerve-turns eye downward and laterally, innervates superior oblique
•V : Trigeminal Nerve-touch, pain, chewing, face, mouth
•VI : Abducens Nerve-turns eye laterally
•VII : Facial Nerve-taste, controls most facial expressions, secretion of tears & saliva
•VIII : Vestibulocochlear Nerve-hearing, equillibrium sensation
•IX : Glossopharyngeal Nerve-taste, senses carotid blood pressure
•X : Vagus Nerve-taste, senses aortic blood pressure, slows heart rate, stimulates digestive organs
•XI : Spinal Accessory Nerve-controls swallowing movements, controls trapezius & sternocleidomastoid
•XII : Hypoglossal Nerve-controls tongue movements

 

[The Seven-Scaled boy]

very good. Now let's practice your chakra control. First, concentrate your chakra while molding it with the tiger handseal. feel it make it flow all around your body.

 

[Sharingdork]

Oi, sensei! *I whip my hands into the tiger handseal and close my eyes. I take in a deep breath and focus my chakra throughout my body. As my concentration sharpens, I can feel my chakra more and more. As my concentration fully set's in, I focus my chakra into an aura flowing around my body. I sit in my meditative pose with my chakra flowing around my body for about a minute before I dare split my concentration between my chakra and speaking.* Is there anything else you want me to do with chakra control?

 

[The Seven-Scaled boy]

Now manipulate the physical part out of that chakra.thus generating disruptive yin chakra. Then, insert it into my kankuro henged clone's brain and affect the correspoding cranial nerves so that he sees a a huge flower in front of him.

 

[Sharingdork]

Now manipulate the physical part out of that chakra.thus generating disruptive yin chakra. Then, insert it into my kankuro henged clone's brain and affect the correspoding cranial nerves so that he sees a a huge flower in front of him.

*still in my meditative stance, I focus on my chakra until I feel the physical essence, and draw only the physical essence back into myself, leaving the disruptive yin chakra around me. I focus upon the shape of a flower, the colors, everything I can think of regarding floral organisms, and then I focus my chakra into my eyes. I open my eyes and lock them on your Kankuro clone, allowing my yin chakra to flow from them, through your clones Optic Never to the brain, manipulating the Optic Nerves to my will to create an illusion of a large, pink flower before him.*

 

[The Seven-Scaled boy]

very good. But what about the flower's smell? And, in the extremly hypothetical case he would pick it up? other than that is was very good.

 

[Sharingdork]

sorry. I saw 'see', and thought that I was just manipulating it's vision.
*I return to my meditative stance and focus my chakra around me, acomplishing that quicker than before as I have already done it. Then, I pull back the physical essence of my chakra within myself. With the distruptive yin chakra surrounding my body, I focus upon not only the appearance of a flower, but also on the smell of fresh pollen and the softness of the petals, the small fibers on the leaves that pull at your finger when you run it over them. Then I focus my chakra to my eyes with all of these thoughts dominant in mind and open them, staring your Kankuro clone dead in the eyes.
I allow my chakra to flow through the 'connection' I've created between my eyes and the clones, and let the chakra flow through his optic nerve to the brain, and this time I spread it throughout it's brain, to disturb all twelve pairs of it's cranial nerves. The distruption created by my chakra takes the form of the mental image I had (and still have) to each set of nerves. The image of a large, pink flower appears before your clone, along with a distinct, sweet scent that was not in the air beforehand. My chakra in the trigeminal nerve does not take full effect, as I hold it back from distrupting its mind further until it tries to grab it.*

 

[The Seven-Scaled boy]

wow very good. Any good dieas on what to do with this technique?

 

[Sharingdork]

wow very good. Any good dieas on what to do with this technique?

With the flower specifically? Well, seeing as it's a massive (or just a very large) flower, I could use it as a distraction, and block my opponents view of me so I could sneak up on them for a physical strike. I could also use the flower to conceal a clone or a stone spike, or something of that nature so that my opponent would see me at a distance behind the flower, and not see the clone right in front of him, or he'd try to pick up the stone spike (stone spike was a bad idea, but I'm not going to erase it).
Assuming that this jutsu can be done with things more than just flowers, I could use it to make my opponent believe that he is surrounded by clones of myself, and then strike from the crowd (a Multi-Basic Clone jutsu, if you will). I could also use it to make my opponent think that the ground below him has collapsed so that he's in a box of earth, with no simple means of escape. Possibly even place the background behind me before my opponent to make it seem as though I've disappeared for an even better surprise attack.

 

[The Seven-Scaled boy]

very good, but the weakness of those tehcnique is that you must make them seem logical. So if he were to be boxed with earth, you gotta fake some handseals. But those are nice uses.

Now onto the next jutsu:

Genjutsu: Kahen Tonsou (Illusion Technique: Flower Petal Escape)

Rank: D
Type:Supplementary
Range:Short
Chakra Cost:10
Damage Points:N/A
Description: The user vanishes in a whirlwind of sakura petals.

Simply, release the disruptive chakra into my clone's breain in order to make him seeing you vanishing in a pink wind of petals. While in reality you may sneak up on the opponent or actually prepare a jutsu. So it's distraction.

 

[Sharingdork]

Gunna stand up for this one. *I stand up onto the ground from the log and begin to mould my chakra around me. As the chakra is forming around me, I catch the physical essence as it's leaving with the distruptive yin chakra, and drag it back into myself, noticably focusing extra during the time it took to do so. Then, after I have my distruptive chakra surrounding my body, I lock my eyes upon your clones with the characteristics of a sakura petal in mind.
The brilliant pink petals, the soft, gentle sensation that occurs when they fall upon your face, the light scent of the flower they carry. All of this, and no more exsit in my mind as my eyes drill a hole through your clones head. Then, I collect my chakra into my eyes, and send them through the optic nerve connection I have established with your clone, sending my chakra through his optic nerve into his brain, and from there I distrub every sense in a realistic fashion (say making the scent fainter the farther away he is, for example) to make it seem as though a storm of sakura petals surrounds me.

You must be registered for see images

(Really weak version of what's going on)
When the storm clears (in the mind of your clone), I am out of sight (partially by quick moving while your clone is preocupied with the petals, and partially by a little bit of genjutsu trickery). I release the genjutsu as I'm behind your clone (seeing as I was concealed by genjutsu while I moved, making me invisible), and then form the handseals for Chidori and strike your clone in the neck.*

 

[The Seven-Scaled boy]

*As soon as my kankuro looking clone noticed you ran away, he looks around and finds you*

That would be the most obvious thing to be behind my clone. But it was a very good description so I must say bravo.

Next genjutsu:

Genjutsu: Kasumi (Illusion Technique: Servant)

Rank: D
Type:Supplementary
Range:Short
Chakra Cost:10
Damage Points:20
Description: An illusionary servant that is really a paper bomb that once in range of the opponent will explode.

who used this?

 

[Sharingdork]

*Hang my head.* I have no idea who used this jutsu, sensei...

 

[The Seven-Scaled boy]

me neither xd, I think it was...no it wasn't any of them

Ok, this justsu let's make it straight forward. Throw a kunai with a explosive tag, but before you do so cast the genjutsu in which your opponent actually beleive a new challenger appears ina a smoke puff and rushes against him.

 

[Sharingdork]

me neither xd, I think it was...no it wasn't any of them

:devil: THAT IS THE CLOSEST EMOT THAT SHOWS HOW ANGRY I AM FOR THAT!!!!!!!!! I WAS LOOKING FOR WHO USED THIS JUTSU FOR HOURS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! :devil:!!!!!!!

On an unrelated topic, let's begin the jutsu training.

Ok, this justsu let's make it straight forward. Throw a kunai with a explosive tag, but before you do so cast the genjutsu in which your opponent actually beleive a new challenger appears ina a smoke puff and rushes against him.

Alright. *I walk to a suitable distance from your clone before I begin. I start with the smoke. I focus on the blinding effect of the smoke, and any smell it could possibly give off. After I believe I have an adequet image of smoke (down to every detail in case there's a breeze and I must have it float over to my opponent), I work on the second enemy. I create, in my mind, a man who is on the shorter side, with not a lot of distinct muscles, and hair covering his eyes. I make sure to not make this man overly intimidating, as I want my opponent to stand their ground against him.
Then, I exert my chakra, the physical essence being even easier for me to discern, so I can draw it back within myself earlier. I lick my finger and hold it into the air. Then, with my distruptive chakra surrounding me, I focus it into my eyes and look your clone in the eyes. My chakra flies through the optical nerve connection I've established, and begins to break down it's mind.
In your clone's eyes, a puff of smoke appears before me, teporarily blocking his view of me. The puff of smoke drifts lazily in the direction of the wind (which I gathered from licking my finger) as it dissappaits. As the smoke disappears, the man I was concentrating on is standing in front of me, wearing a baggy shirt and loose fitting pants, a single kunai in his hand, and no other visable weapon or weapon pouch. As the wind picks up slightly, my chakra messes with your clones head so he sees the man's shirt and pants ruffle, and hair sweep in the direction of the wind, a slight glint of a headband showing from the breeze.
Then, in the mind of your clone, the man takes off at a run, bending over so I can make it run faster than normal (speed of a thrown kunai). As the man runs in your clones mind, I throw a kunai with an explosive tag in the real world, the man running at the same speed as the kunai. The man raises his kunai across his body to make it appear as if he's about to strike. As the man get's closer to your clone, I increase my control on the olfactory nerve to slowly increase the smell of a man who hasn't bathed in at least a week as my creation gets closer to your clone. As the man runs, I also increase my control on the vestibulocochlear nerve, as to slowly make your clone hear the sound of grass crunching under footsteps, and the huffing and puffing of the man as he runs (along with the traditional 'click' that appears in anime as kunai are held into position).
As the man gets within range, I have him sweep his arm with the kunai back across his body, to make it seem as though he's trying to attack your clone. As your clone is most likely defending against this, or is jumping back to avoid it, the real kunai continues on its course, exploding as it makes contact with your clone. If your clone jumps back, the man steps forwards to disguise the kunai, and if he stays to fight, he feels a slight resistance from whatever he used to block the kunai in the man's hand, and by that time, the kunai would have most likely hit him (the clone distracted by the seemingly real man as to not see the actually real kunai).*

Five paragraphs to describe one jutsu. Have fun reading it!

Read it in a breeze, very good. Do it again, now manipulating a tag along the ground with chakra.
