And everyone who had been through the last war is by definition a veteran, regardless of age, because the others didn't survive.
- That's right, and before we begin the lesson, I need to know how familiar you are with this type of jutsu," the girl clapped her hands together, "who can tell me what genjutsu is and how it is applied?
- It's an illusion imposed on a person by influencing their perception with the chakra of the person applying genjutsu," Hoshi said under my nods of approval, "in order to distract attention or substitute the surrounding area.
- Not only that, there are a lot of options, but it's not bad," the Uchiha smiled, "Genjutsu can be used to gain an advantage in battle, to gain information, or even to incapacitate a target, depending on how experienced the person using the genjutsu is.
- And whether he possesses sharingan, I forgot to add," I chuckled a little mockingly.
- The Uchiha Clan's dojutsu can increase the effectiveness of the genjutsu used, and even allow it to be done without seals, just by eye contact.
- Wow," the students were surprised.
Even though the village knew about the Uchiha and their dojutsu, how could they know what it could do when they were yesterday's academy graduates? And I haven't talked to them about Konoha's clans and what they're known for. Except for Nara, of course. Naturally, I intend to eliminate this gap in their education before they go out on more serious missions than weeding a vegetable garden, but all in good time.
- The two most important components of good genjutsu are chakra control and imagination," the Uchiha continued to enlighten the Genin, "the first determines whether the target will notice your interference with his keirakukei, and the second determines how realistic what you're trying to instill will be. Of course, there are genjutsu that require only control, and everything else is inherent in the seals, such as depriving a person of all senses, but this is a higher skill that you should not even think about.
- Chifuyu-san, will you teach us some techniques? - Hoshi asked bluntly.
- Of course I will, but we'll start with the simplest examples," the girl looked at me, "and in the meantime, I need to know how good your chakra control is.
I had studied my students well, so I had discussed with her in advance what I should and shouldn't teach the genin, because I knew those Uchiha.
- Ryo-sensei has already taught us how to run on water with our feet and hands, how to flush our bodies to any surface, and even how to create threads of chakra," Asani said, who was showing the most significant progress in this area.
I've even started to teach her the basics of iryojutsu with Surizawa, since the latter will be leaving the team sooner or later, and a medic is always needed on missions. Just in case.
