Genjutsu with Akihiko

[Punk Hazard]

*stands in desired area awaiting Akihiko*

 

[Adachi]

First, tell me why you want to learn Genjutsu and how you plan to use it in battle.

 

[Punk Hazard]

I want to learn Genjutsu because, right now, it's my primary weakness in RP. I want to learn it to get rid of this weakness and turn it into a strength. Also, if I learn Genjutsu, it can give me a better understanding on how to defend against it.

I plan to use Genjutsu for two ways: One is as an offense, to deal damage and the other as a supplementary, using it to trick the opponent and disguise my true actions.

 

[Adachi]

Well, the point of Genjutsu is to be creative and detailed. Because you are manipulating your enemy's five senses, it is important that you control each one of them in a specific way in order to confuse and trick your opponent into a psychological warfare. Be creative, and it won't be your weakness, I assure you.

Alright, we will emphasize more on your points in a moment.
Now, what ways might one counter Genjutsu?

 

[Punk Hazard]

There are three ways to counter Genjutsu. One is an outside source of chakra, such as a Bijuu, to disrupt the opponent's chakra, dispelling the chakra.

Another one is pain. Extreme pain can shock a victim out of Genjutsu.

A third is creative. If one can manage to have a second Genjutsu placed on him by an ally, the Genjutsu can overlap the opponent's, and if used creatively and specific enough, it can negate and even reverse the first Genjutsu.

 

[Adachi]

-Your explanation of the outer source of Genjutsu includes two others you missed. Besides a Bijuu partner, what other outer sources can break you out of Genjutsu in a typical battle?
-Pain works.
-Well, overlapping Genjutsu is a bit complicated and often times, you also need to use reasoning to get out.

So, you're missing some things.
One, is a full body surge. Give an example of a jutsu that can do this.
Two, is a jutsu specifically created to "release" you from Genjutsu.
Three, which Doujutsu renders Genjutsu effective and how?

Strong smells can also release you from Genjutsu, along with killing the person who had originally cast it.

 

[Punk Hazard]

To be honest, I'm drawing a blank at the other two outer sources. Samehada comes to mind.

As for a full body surge, a focused Chidori Nagashi comes to mind.

The Dojutsu question confuses me. If the question is which Dojutsu is most effective when using with Genjutsu, my answer is Sharingan because that Dojutsu allows the user to use Genjutsu via eye contact, and some without contact.

If the question is which Dojutsu is ideal to use Genjutsu against, I have to say it's Rinnegan because you can trap someone with Rinnegan with Genjutsu by casting on someone who he shares his eyes with, such ad Summoning Animals or Paths.

 

[Adachi]

It's very simple. Just a teammate or a Shadow Clone. xd
And I mean to say ineffective, my bad. LOL. It's what about 50 training threads do to you and when you're thinking and typing at two different speeds.

You are correct in saying it is the Sharingan, and they have the simple ability of liberating themselves from Genjutsus.
There are certain techniques in doing this, but I have never learned the Sharingan so I am not very clear on this.

You are also missing the simple jutsu of Kai. Do you know how this works?

 

[Punk Hazard]

I'm such a baka. I thought of Kai, but I forgot all about it while typing my response.

Um, Kai works by disrupting your chakra slightly so that the Genjutsu stops right?

 

[Adachi]

Yes, you are correct. I will go over it in deeper detail later on when we actually get to it.
Now, begin by taking over all five of my senses and leading me to believe I am now somewhere else.
Remember to be detailed.

 

[Punk Hazard]

*I channel my chakra and separate a piece of it from my chakra pool. I flow the chakra from my body and into your chakra network, specifically, the section inside of your head. Due to the chakra network being tightly close to the body's organs, this allows me to use it to effect your brain. I use my chakra to affect your five senses all at once. For your sight, I have the area around you change to appear like that of a windy, isolated island and you are on it's shore. You see sand, trees blowing and the waves and ocean. For smell, you catch the sent of the salty seawater. For touch, you feel the sand under your feet and the water washing over your feet. You also feel the wind touch your body, giving you a higher sense of smelling the salty water. The wind also causes you to taste the salty water in the air. Since your brain truly belives all of this is happening, your body acts accordingly, giving you sensations I described above.*

 

[Adachi]

Well put. Now, take advantage of my current situation and proceed to knock me out.

 

[Punk Hazard]

*Due to the Genjutsu not including me in the scenario, you are unable to see me. I take advantage if this and run over to you and punch you in the face, knocking you out.*

 

[Adachi]

Well done. This time, let's do something more elemental.
Take over my senses once more and create an environment where I would react elementally, then counter my counter.

 

[Punk Hazard]

*I flow some of my chakra into your chakra network within your brain. I manipulate the chakra create an illusion. I make the illusion look like I launch a FireBall jutsu at you. This causes you to retaliate by preparing a water jutsu. As you prepare to launch the water jutsu, I prepare my Lightning chakra. The second you create a water jutsu to create a wall of water to defend, I spew out the Lightning from my mouth. The lightning goes up the water and into your mouth, electrocuting your skull and critically damaging you.*

 

[Adachi]

Excellent! Exactly what I was looking for!

Spoiler

( 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.

Now, let's discuss handseals a bit. What do you know of them and how do they affect your battles?

 

[Punk Hazard]

Well, certain jutsu require hand seals to be used in conjunction with chakra. If no seals are done for these certain jutsu, the jutsu will not work and the chakra will just be wasted. If the seals are messed up, the jutsu may still be created, but fail miserably or end up deformed, weakened or incomplete.

If the user has enough skill, he may be able to reduce the number of seals he needs.

 

[Adachi]

Well said. Now, let's discuss timing a bit.
Say you had an opponent who had a jutsu that required five handseals, but yours only required two. How does this affect your battle?

 

[Punk Hazard]

Depending on the properties of each jutsu, my jutsu might be executed quicker if we both start the seals at the same time.

 

[Adachi]

Well said. Always keep in mind both parties jutsus.

Now, please proceed to send out your chakra towards my clone, once again taking over his five senses and having him believe you've dissolved into a bunch of cherry blossom petals.
Have those very petals flow towards him, thus, obstructing his vision.
