waits for her sensei to arrive. She felt stiff; probably because she was nervous. She doesn't know much about genjutsu, neither has she thought about it before this. Genjutsu will be a whole new battlefield... Nonetheless she'll face it head on.

"Yoshi!!!"

She says to herself.

Castiel walks onto the training field; wearing his Konoha attire. It was a sunny and bright day with a sight breeze thoughout the battlefield.

"Hello there, my name is Castiel, and I will be training you in genjutsu today so with that out of the way could you please tell me what you know about genjutsu anything at all, even if it's small, who are the most well known for the usage of it? And why you want to learn genjutsu?"

Ryuzetsu stared at the sensei that stood in front of her. It's crunch time. For a few second, she was in some sort of a trance. Oh god, what is he talking about? Is he speaking English or Gibberish? Oh man, I'm gonna flake... She takes a deep breath No! You will not!.

Composing herself, she looks at Castiel with resolve. She'll wing it.

" 'Illusionary Techniques' is the literal meaning of Genjutsu"

She smiles at Castiel sensei

"That's all I know!"

Ryuzetsu lets out a small awkward laugh while looking Castiel in the eyes. Yabai...(I'm in trouble) She takes another deep breath and straightens herself once more. Be serious this time

"Ahem.. As I said, Illusionary Techniques...therefore unlike Taijutsu and Ninjutsu that deal physical damage, Genjutsu targets..."


She looks him in the eyes then taps the her left temple

"...here. There is a disruption in the targets senses due to the manipulation of chakra in the brain. Nearly everything, from humans to mammals, is susceptible to become trapped in a Genjutsu. Genjutsu can be used in various ways, for example, the target may see false images, feel pain, manipulation - make the target commit an act. In some cases it can be used for interrogation, breaking the targets will in order to obtain information."

"There... are different ways of conducting Genjutsu. Physical contact, Visual Contact, and sound... "

"To...uh...counter Genjutsu, there are ways to go about this. 'Genjutsu Dissipation' this nulls the disruption of chakra through...uh.. will power. Another, is to have an unaffected comrade apply a surge of chakra to the affected, which is an external source"

" Like Ninjutsu, it, Genjutsu requires chakra and ...handseals? In order to be activated?"

Ryuzetsu stops for a moment to think

"I... I only know of a few well known users. The Uchiha Brothers, Itachi and Sasuke with their Dojutsu , the Sharingan, which allows them to cast a generic genjutsu. Another is ...uh..the Second Mizukage, with his clam summon and Hozuki abilities. Lastly, Tayuya of the Sound four... with her sound based Genjutsu"

She nods her head a little before letting out a weak smile towards the sensei. Was that alright?

"You want to know why I want to learn Genjutsu... I... I'm not particularly good at anything. Not that I know of anyway...Therefore I want to improve my skills on the things I'm allowed to learn, and hopefully go somewhere from there. I think Genjutsu is a unique ability, scary, yet fascinating. "

Castiel watches in amazement, as this young girl is answering all of Castiel questions correctly.

"If there was anything that you missed it would have been Genjutsu Detection, Genjutsu Detection is very important cause you need to know how to correctly word it to get out of it, give the below a read.

As well as this link below. This link has everything from Genjutsu detection to how to get out of genjutsu correctly.

"

How to dispel a Genjutsu and why

Simple answer lies in what is a Genjutsu. Genjutsu is a disruption of your normal chakra flow that makes you experience an illusion as it scrambles your chakra. We have gone through that so you might ask how does this help?

Ok, if a Genjutsu is a disruption in your own chakra flow, to dispel it you need to create a stronger disruption that will clear that one and leave your chakra on its normal state. So basically, there is only one way to dispel genjutsu: disrupting your chakra flow.

Now, this can be done in 3 basic ways:

1- Altering the balance between physical and spiritual energies in your chakra by disturbing your physical energy. This is done by producing pain. Pain comes from the body and thus it makes your physical energy fluctuate. Because of this fluctuation your chakra flow experiences a spike. This spike is a disturbance that will dispel other disturbances present in your chakra.

2- Altering the balance between physical and spiritual energies in your chakra by disturbing your spiritual energy. This is done by your sheer will power. Its done by forcefully creating a surge of chakra in your body by spiking your spiritual energy. It can be done in 2 ways: through a technique named Kai and through other techniques, like Nagashi, that will produce a high enough surge of chakra through your body.

3- Altering your chakra flow through the introduction of foreign chakra. This can be done by an ally or by entering for example, sage mode or being a jinchuriki. The truth is that as foreign chakra enters your system or another energy (natural energy), your chakra flow becomes altered and thus releases from the genjutsu.

All of these produce a reset-like effect on your chakra flow, making it return to normal.
Also here is everything you covered plus a little more.

±± Genjutsu ±±
Genjutsu, or Illusionary Arts, unlike ninjutsu, don't produce a real, palpable, feasible effect; it produces an illusionary effect. With a specific KG however, the illusions can become so strong that the body will be fooled into mimicking in real life the fake effects its perceiving through the illusion. There exists two types of Genjutsu: the passive, non chakra fueled ones (basically illusions to our senses like visual paradoxes and such which have little use in the RP and can be easily overcome through experience and logic) and the active, chakra fueled ones. Within the active chakra fueled ones two subtypes exist: Dojutsu induced Genjutsu and Normal Genjutsu.

Genjutsu works by using chakra to disturb the chakra flow of the opponent, specially in the brain, altering his senses. By doing this you can make him perceive any thing his senses are capable of: pain, heat, cold, tickles, iching, etc etc. A ninja can make the opponent taste, smell, feel, see or hear anything he wants. However, because this is done by using your chakra to manipulate his chakra flow, the ninja needs to be close or, many times, have direct eye contact or even physical contact. This is the main limitation of Genjutsu: range. The further you are away from your opponent, the harder it is to induce the fluctuation on his chakra flow to produce the genjutsu.

How exactly does it work? Well, every one has a balanced chakra flow. The chakra flows in a balanced combination of both physical and spiritual energies. The ratio between them vary from person to person (that is how each person has a different chakra signature) but its always calm and balanced. To produce a genjutsu, a ninja uses his chakra to disturb that balance in a controlled way. This is done in a similar way to ninjutsu, throught both focusing and molding chakra. A fluctuation is then created in the targets chakra "wave length" and makes it fluctuate in a given way. This produces the illusion by scrambling the users link between his Spirit and his Body which effectively is the link between his mind and his senses. To make your chakra be capable of doing the correct fluctuation, you need to use, most of the times, handseals. These help you mold and shape and focus your chakra to the correct wave length you want to induce, thus enabling you to use it to disturb the targets chakra flow.


Castiel then asks his student: "Do you have any questions?"

Ryuzetsu smiles, the look on Castiel Sensei's face made her feel like a thorn on her chest had been removed.

"I understand, Sensei. I will try my hardest to learn Genjutsu detection"

As Castiel handed her the text, she couldn't help her jaw from dropping. Eyes wides, she looks back at her sensei and just nods. Well, I've got homework... and lot of it.

Retaining her cool posture, she nods once more

"I have no questions as of now Sensei"

Castiel shows a half smile and says: "Okay then I think it is time we start with the first technique, are you ready?"

"Here is what I want you to do, below is a sort of template that I want you to fill out when you are performing this technique on my clone.

(Magen: Kokoni Arazu no Jutsu) - Demonic Illusion: False Surroundings Technique
Rank: D
Type: Supplementary
Range: Short-Mid
Chakra Cost: 10 (+5 if you use it double)
Damage Points: N/A
Description: The user casts an illusion over an area that allows him to manipulate the way an area looks to fool an opponent. He can only change the way the terrain looks, and not any other feature.

Okay so, here I would like you to focus your chakra towards my clone and insert it into its brain; that makes him believe that the surrounding area has changed, but of course within reason. This technique can only change the way the area looks, can't do anything else besides that. So you could change the terrain to rocky area, green plains and even a desert, but you have to be smart about it."

"Castiel hands his student a piece of paper and a pencil to write down the template and the notes that are required of her."

As Ryuzetsu was about to answer her sensei, Hyuna stumbles from a nearby bush after she lost her footing by tripping over a root of the tree next to her. Upon seeing that the sensei and her friend were looking at her, she scratched her head awkwardly.

"I'm sure a spirit pushed me...it wasn't like I was eavesdropping"

She gave them both a smile, an awkward gummy smile.

"Genjutsu, I see?"

Ryuzetsu sighed, her train of thought was broken. She needed to concentrate again, but to no avail she couldn't think of anything.

"Take it from here"

The white haired maiden laid out the details of what's been going on to Hyuna, who just smiled. What do you know, he training came earlier than expected.

"Gotcha"

She turns towards the sensei, who was just silent and waiting for a reply.

"Castiel sensei, my name is Hyuna Kim. Nice to finally meet you. I promise to do my best...and hopefully become your favourite student :yayy: but I guess since we've only just met, that was a long shot"



Taking her stance she begins mightily jotting down her notes on the paper Ryuzetsu passed her.


One/three advantages:

  • 1. It is a great way to decieve your opponent if set up before hand. Great for small scale.
  • 2. It doesn't require handseals therefore it is quick and your opponent would not be aware you have led them into a genjutsu
  • 3. You can catch your opponent off guard.

One/three disadvantages:

  • 1. It's a low rank technique, so by itself you can't really do much with it unless it's in conjunction with something else.
  • 2. Those who are well versed with genjutsu will be able to sense it and dispel it with ease.
  • 3. It's almost no good to use it in the middle of a fight because it would be immediately sense, since there has been a terrain change.

How you would use it in battle:

I would certainly use this technique in conjunction with another for a more powerful effect. Though, if I was only using this technique on it's own, I would set it up before hand, as if luring them into a trap or catching them off guard before I strike, for example, if I was fighting them hand to hand on a flat rocky terrain and I landed a strike that knocks them backwards, I will use this technique to make them believe that they had fallen into a lake or a marsh.

"Sensei... before they believe that they have emerged from the water, would they feel somewhat a drowning sensation or a brief suffocation or lack of air?"


If so, I use that advantage to attack more before they are fully aware again.

This technique isn't really that powerful specially when you've come across someone with more experience.

How you would counter it:

One way would be the chipping of the finger, or a bite inside the cheek. Pain. Even though genjutsu can mimic sensation, it is to some degree weak against real sensations as it will shock the body to a reset, regaining the natural flow of chakra.

Another way, it can be countered is by a Genjutsu Kai, which I believe to be the persons will power, overpowering the disruption of the chakra flow.

How you perform it (with as much detail as you can):

Hyuna smiles as she looked at her sensei, and wondered whether or not she'll be able to do it right the first time. Her stomach full of butterflies, and her heart erupting in excitement as she was about to perform her very first technique.

She concentrates and focuses the chakra inside her body, she can feel it build up inside her. Once she believed it was enough, she allows her chakra to travel to her sensei's clone, specifically aiming for it's head, once her chakra was inside she disrupts the natural flow of chakra. She was now in control, as long as her sensei let her.

She smiles, and all of a sudden instead of the training field they were now in marshland with the sun beating down on them.




The red haired girl looked at her sensei wondering whether she had answered it correctly or not.

"Was that fine?"

"Hello there, where did Ryuzetsu go? No matter, that was amazing. I am so very impressed, I think we can move on to the next technique now:

(Genjutsu: Kasumi) - Illusion Technique: Servant
Rank: D
Type: Supplementary
Range: Short
Chakra Cost: 10
Damage Points: 20
Description: The user does one handseal and throws a paper bomb at the enemy. The enemy, trapped in a genjutsu will see a clone of the user advancing upon him. As the paper bomb reaches the enemy, it explodes

Ah, perform the seal and repeat the process of inserting your chakra into my clone. While you're doing that, get a paper bomb ready and then throw it at the clone, the clone will see a clone of you racing towards him, but really it's actually a paper bomb, and once the paper bombs comes within the area of them, it goes boom. IT would be nice if this was longer, like mid-range. But you could still pull this off nicely."
