Her hand gently rested on Kiyoshi's shoulder, like a gesture of comfort for a junior.
She had assud Kiyoshi Uchiha would be as crude as people from the Land of Lightning, which was why she had been dragging this task out.
Upon eting him today, he actually seed honest and guileless.
At close range, Kiyoshi could detect a fragrance.
Hazuki Uchiha offered a few words of comfort and quickly departed.
Kiyoshi watched her retreating figure, his eyes gleaming.
Hazuki Uchiha and Izumi Uchiha, the mother and daughter, looked similar.
Both had a tear mole beneath their eyes.
However, Hazuki Uchiha looked more like a mature version of Izumi.
Opening the scroll in his hand, he saw it was a Lightning Release Genjutsu called [Lightning Release: Violent Flash].
For Kiyoshi, who already possessed the Sharingan, it was sowhat redundant.
Genjutsu is essentially a technique that invades the opponent's body with chakra, interferes with their five senses, and plunges them into an illusion.
It can be roughly divided into three categories: "Visual System," "Auditory System," and "Tactile System."
Examples include the Visual System's Tsukuyomi, the Auditory System's Demonic Illusion: Shackling Sounds, and the Tactile System's Izanami.
The dium for casting a Genjutsu rely needs to conform to these three categories.
Lightning Release can also serve as a dium for casting Genjutsu; [Lightning Release: Lightning Illusion: Flash Pillar] is one such example.
This technique was created by C, the Cloud Village's elite all-rounder Jōnin.
It allows the user's entire body to transform into an electric light, making the opponent mistake it for a sight-obstructing ninjutsu, thus naturally falling into the Genjutsu.
"No, perhaps incorporating Lightning Release into Genjutsu isn't bad." Kiyoshi suddenly thought.
The famous Shisui Uchiha's [Body Flicker Illusion] was a technique that incorporated his Sharingan Genjutsu into the Body Flicker Technique.
Kiyoshi could try sothing similar.
The Uchiha na is too well-known.
The ninja world already had a consensus on how to deal with Uchiha clan ninjas: avoid looking into the Sharingan.
Using other thods to cast Genjutsu might yield unexpected results.
"It's ti to find Samui."
Kiyoshi tucked the scroll into his bag and continued walking outside.
He was severely lacking in offensive capabilities right now.
Currently, he only knew the [Transformation Technique], [Lightning Release: Lightning Finger], and [Lightning Release: Iron Armor].
All of them were rely supplentary.
This is because the essence of [Lightning Release: Iron Armor] is physical training to promote rapid body developnt.
And the other, the barely usable [Lightning Release: Lightning Finger], even if its proficiency were increased, its power wouldn't improve much.
This ninjutsu was probably originally intended for dical use, to release a weak current for paralysis.

Sushi Restaurant.
"... Samatodo, why is Atsui here too? He's so young!"
In the secret room of the sushi restaurant, Samui's brow furrowed as she looked at her brother, who was about Kiyoshi's age.
Being a spy was a very dangerous mission.
One mistake, and both of them could die here.
"The Third Raikage highly values Kiyoshi Yotsuki, so we cannot ss this up. The village spent a great deal of effort resolving Atsui's identity. He will enroll in the Ninja Academy next sester to infiltrate."
A coarse voice ca from Samatodo. His thick, finger-sized dreadlocks were clumped together.
He looked at the siblings before him.
Infiltration as a spy required a lot of energy.
Yet the village sent another person.
It was likely that Kiyoshi Yotsuki's value had increased.
Samatodo scanned the people in the secret room.
Aside from Samui and the newly arrived Atsui, there were several people dressed as waiters.
These were all spies sent by the Hidden Cloud.
There were also a few comrades outside responsible for vigilance, who hadn't entered.
They maintained the daily operation of this store on the surface, but secretly, they gathered information on the Hidden Leaf.
And he was the superior responsible for managing this group of spies.
"Sister, this is all for the sake of the village. I volunteered to co," Atsui spoke, constantly ntioning his desire to dedicate himself to the Hidden Cloud.
He tossed his blonde hair, identical to Samui's. He looked like a child, but his left shoulder was already tattooed with the red character for "Hot" (Atsui).
"Besides, I want to do sothing for you, Sister." Atsui said.
His sister was a very calm woman.
Therefore, she possessed excellent espionage potential.
But being an undercover spy was too dangerous.
It was rumored that Kiyoshi Yotsuki was the distant nephew of the Second Raikage, and bringing him back would be a great achievent.
This way, his sister wouldn't have to perform such dangerous missions in the future.
Samui didn't speak, letting out a soft sigh.
She felt both touched and sad.
Her brother was so young, and he was already being deployed as a spy?
"He is an Uchiha and the distant nephew of the previous Raikage. You should know the value of this," Samatodo paused, speaking earnestly:
"Kiyoshi ca to find you last ti. It's highly likely he will contact you again. You must work hard to win him over."
Successfully handling this matter would be a rit for everyone.
It would an they wouldn't have to risk their lives deep in enemy territory, sleeping restlessly every night.
"Understood." Samui nodded.
After Samatodo encouraged everyone and separately briefed the new Atsui on the upcoming enrollnt for the next sester, he released everyone back to their work.
Samui returned to the sushi counter preoccupied, wiping the tables with a white rag.
After seeing her brother, an uneasy feeling began to well up in her heart.
It wasn't that she disliked her brother.
It was worry.
"Do you still sell squid sushi here?"
Samui subconsciously looked up, just about to reply that they did, when she realized it was Kiyoshi Yotsuki.
The sense of unease in her heart intensified.
Samui suppressed the feeling, looked around, saw no other custors, and whispered:
"What else do you want?"
Samui didn't think Kiyoshi would simply agree to return to the Hidden Cloud, he was probably here for another handout.
"A few more scrolls, preferably swordsmanship ones." Kiyoshi held out his hand.
"Do you think these things are like weeds, easily obtainable?"
Seeing Kiyoshi's matter-of-fact expression, Samui couldn't maintain her composure.
Samatodo told her to win Kiyoshi over, but Kiyoshi was truly... annoying.
She had just given Kiyoshi two Lightning Release ninjutsu scrolls a while ago, and now he was asking for more.
It should be known that most scrolls available for money on the market are common, low-quality ninjutsu, so much so that many fraudulent scrolls circulate.
Most ninjutsu are inherited within the clan.
Or one must seek a master, and if the master takes a liking to them, they can learn ninjutsu.
"Of course, I know that."
Kiyoshi said leisurely, just about to give his prepared explanation.
Suddenly, he saw a man behind Samui with the exact sa hair color and pupils as Samui, and a tattoo on his left shoulder.
His prepared excuse subtly changed.
It seed his luck was quite good.
"This must be your brother, Samui."
A slight smile curved Kiyoshi's lips.
Samui's erald eyes suddenly widened.
She turned and saw her brother, now dressed in a waiter's uniform. He seed warm, as he had rolled his sleeves up quite a bit.
Imdiately, Samui's brow furrowed tightly.
This was bad news.
