Mastering Illusions with Adachi-Sensei

[Ańbu Juniør]

*Waits for Adachi*

After years of searching, i've finally found Somebody to teach me Genjutsu

My timezone is GMT -4.

 

[Fodder#5]

False. He actually put you in a genjutsu and now you only think that he taught you.

 

[Ańbu Juniør]

:| be gone please

 

[Fodder#5]

:| be gone please

Yessir. I'll be on my merry way

 

[Adachi]

Alright, may I firstly know why you want to learn Genjutsu?

 

[Ańbu Juniør]

Sorry for the late reply.

I want to learn Genjutsu because a lot of enemies seem to be using it. I want to know all their is about it so that i too may utilize this skill in battle, and also be able to release myself against its effects.

 

[Adachi]

Hm...seems pretty standard.
Alright, well, I'd like to know what the importance of creativity is in Genjutsu.

 

[Ańbu Juniør]

Well, since Genjust affects the opponents chakra flow and causes them to see illusions, I think creativity is important because we need to make the Jutsu as believable as possibly so that it would be harder for the opponent to escape

 

[Adachi]

That's one thing. But what if you can manipulate your opponent into seeing anything...?

 

[Ańbu Juniør]

Then that would be an effective method of attack. I could use Genjustu to make him attack his own opponents, by making him think they are actually enemies. I could also Use it to paralyze them, or even trap them in an inescapable environment.

 

[Adachi]

And that, my friend, is a core idea of Genjutsu. So, let's begin simple.
How exactly does Genjutsu work and give me an example of how you would like to use it during a battle.

 

[Ańbu Juniør]

Well, as i kinda mentioned before, Genjutsu works be disrupting the opponent's chakra in the brain and causing him to see anything you want him to see, even his own death. During battle, i would use it to Make my opponent a giant fireball is bearing down on him, and while he's busy dealing with that, I'd Either impale him with a kunai, my sword, or just crush him with an earth jutsu U_U

 

[Adachi]

Exactly. xD It enters the area of our brain, the prosencephalon structure of our brain, which controls all our senses. You MUST remember to manipulate all five senses any time you start a genjutsu.
Now, how would one counter a genjutsu?

 

[Ańbu Juniør]

Understood kind sir.

Well, one can counter genjutsu through pain by biting your thumb and then use that blood for a summoning later if you feel like it. Also if you're not paralyzed you can use Kai which only takes a handseal and works to break up to S rank genjutsu for someone who is a sage.

However, sometimes there are genjutsu where you can't use kai because you're paralyzed or can't use your hands for one reason or another, that's when you start relying on fullbody surges. These can be either elemental or non-elemental but the point is to speed up your chakra flow so you take back control of it by disrupting the opponents genjutsu.

If someone were to use a genjutsu, an elemental fullbody surge has to be at least one rank higher than the rank of the genjutsu. A non-elemental fullbody surge has to be 2 ranks above the genjutsu.

Also, one can get a different source of chakra to flow through your body and disrupt the genjutsu, this different source can be a partner whether it's a clone, comrade, dog, insects, living swords(samehada) or bijuu even. CM could also work as a different source of chakra.

Elemental fullbody surges are chidori nagashi, light-bodyweight, earth spear etc.

 

[Adachi]

You pretty much covered the normal three ways to release yourself from Genjutsu, perfect!
Just two more questions.
What Doujutsus can break out of genjutsus and how?
Lastly, say you were unable to use Kai or a fullbody surge and your body was immobilized - what would you do?

Thank you =D

There are three main Doujutsus can break out of a genjutsu are the Sharingan, Byakugan, and rennigan.

The Bykugan can break out of a genjutsu because it allows you to see your own chakra system, and you can detect if you are in a genjutsu as genjutsu disrupts your chakra then. With byakugan you will know the enthropy in your chakra system, and any abnormalities in that system would indicate that you are in a genjutsu.

The Sharingan can force their way out of Genjutsus. (Sorry for being brief Lol)

The Rinnegan can break out of a genjutsu...welll, im not sure how this one works since i'v never seen it in action that much.

If you are immobilized, you can bite your tongue or your lip and the pain would be enough to break you out of the genjutsu.

 

[Adachi]

A perfect response. =D
Let's start simple now. First, try and transform our surroundings into anything you want.
You must first concentrate on your chakra and then release it out of your body onto me, then deliberately control each of my five senses to get me to see what you want.

I begin by concentrating my chakra then i release it outward and into your body and it disrupts chakra flow within your brain, and allows me to make you see whatever i want you to. I snap my fingers and as you open your eyes, you see that we're at the beach. I Control each of your senses to make you smell the sea, feel the sand beneath you, see the water, hear the crashing of the waves, and taste the salt in your mouth

Up for a swim?

 

[Adachi]

Oh man, I'd very much want a swim right now. Nonetheless, great job! Don't forget whenever you use a Genjutsu, mention every single human sense.
I'll now teach you a concept known as cause and effect. For example, you used a Wind Jutsu to blow away the explosive tag, thus, I can follow up with a prepared fire move to disregard your Wind Jutsu, so that it overcomes it and is sent back at you two times stronger.
By taking the upper hand, you can juggle your opponent around and have them react the way you want to, as we are all forced to make moves and survive in a battle. This is most often used in chess, where it is necessary to be able to predict several moves ahead of the opponent.
Now, how might this apply to usage of this jutsu?

 

[Ańbu Juniør]

Well, it would apply to the usage of this jutsu by attacking my opponent in a manner by which he'll be forced to reply the way i want him to, and this would allow me to beat attack him more appropriately.

For example: Since were on the beach i could attack my opponent with a water jutsu and he would have to defend with either wind or the water itself. Since i know this, i could follow up with a lightning attack to electrocute my opponent, or use a fire wind combo to get rid of them.

Am i right?
