Chapter 35 - 35- Third Test

"Wind Release: Vacuum Sphere"

Ryuu took a deep breath and exhaled several small blasts of wind chakra that spread in different directions. The wind blasts pierced the bodies of many snakes and killed them.

'I have to get out of here, the number of snakes appearing is increasing a lot.'Ryuu started killing snakes five minutes ago but their numbers didn't decrease but started increasing.

Ryuu cannot use fire jutsu as this will cause the entire forest to burn, which will cause him to burn as well. So he started using wind jutsu, and fortunately learned some Danzō's techniques in their last fight.

Ryuu pulled out the sword hanging on his back and started slicing through the snakes to get out of this place.

When he came out of the snake area, he reached an even tighter area, which made Ryuu move with great difficulty.

As Ryuu moved forward, the distance between each tree became 30 cm or less, which made him unable to pass from several places.

'The movement is getting a lot harder, it's not good if I'm attacked here I won't be able to dodge it,' After thinking for a moment, Ryuu decided to climb the tree.

When Ryuu reached the top of the tree, the blue sky and white clouds combined with the land full of green trees and distant hills appeared, creating a beautiful sight.

But Ryuu could not enjoy this beautiful view of nature, because as soon as he reached the top of the tree he was attacked by a giant bird.

"Chidori Sharp Spear"

Once the giant bird got close to Ryuu, Ryuu used Chidori and shaped it using Shape Transformation to transform into a spear that pierced the giant bird and then swung its hand causing the giant bird to be cut in half.

As soon as the giant bird was killed, five more giant birds appeared.

'Where did they appear from?' Ryuu was confused. A while ago, the sky was clear and there was nothing, but these giant birds appeared out of nowhere.

"Multiple Shadow Clone Technique"

Five Shadow Clones appeared and used the body flicker technique and approached the Giant Bird very quickly. Then the five clones used the sword and cut the throats of the giant birds.

Ryuu was focused and ready for more giant birds to appear.Ryuu was right, 25 giant birds appeared with one bird twice the size.

Ryuu was very attentive, so he noticed how giant birds appeared out of nowhere.

Ryuu made another 21 Shadow Clones and then told them, "Don't kill them, distract them, I want to find out something."

Shadow clones kept the giant birds away from Ryuu. Ryuu went to the first giant bird he killed and started examining her.

After examining the giant bird's body for a while, Ryuu frowned and then went to examine the rest of the five birds' bodies, when Ryuu found out what had happened his eyes widened in shock.

Ryuu squatted down and examined the tree under him, 'I'm in an illusion, how could this happen, even with my Sharingan I hardly noticed'

'How powerful is this Genjutsu to fool even the Sharingan. Everything seems so real, all my senses were tricked into making me think it was all real' Ryuu then tried to break out of the illusion by using the Sharingan but he couldn't break the illusion, his whole body felt tense when he found out, He also felt helpless, as if he was being controlled by someone.

Ryuu swallowed hard. He thought for a moment, then wanted to try something to check his guess, so he grabbed the giant bird by his side and pulled out a bone and cut his hand with it.

Ryuu felt pain and blood was coming out of his hand. Ryuu made sure of his guess at this moment.

Although the body of the giant bird is made of illusion, the wound in his hand is real, which means that the illusion affects reality as well 'As I expected this is similar to the Kekkei Genkai of the Kurama clan'

'Am I in this delusion from the moment I use the Reverse Summoning technique, even if it's all an illusion I have to pass the test first and then I'll ask Saika' After thinking about this, Ryuu jumped to the nearest giant bird to fly in the sky.

Ryuu looked into the bird's eyes and plunged it into an illusion and controlled it, 'It seems that even if the bird is an illusion, I can bring it into the illusion and control it as if it was a real bird'

"Everyone, use genjutsu to control the giant birds," Ryuu spoke to his clones in a loud voice.

After a while all 26 clones were able to control the giant birds. Then they made it fly high in the sky.

"Now." After they had reached a suitable altitude, Ryuu gave the start command to the shadow clones.

"Fire Release: Great Fire Destruction"

Ryuu and his clones kneaded the chakra inside their bodies and turned it into fire, then expelled it from their mouth in a massive stream of intense flames. The flames were shot towards the forest below them, igniting a very vast area and the fire started to spread throughout the forest.

Ryuu initially thought it was a real forest so he didn't use fire for fear of hurting himself because he was in the forest and for fear of failing the test because he burned an important test area, but he discovered that it was an illusion forest so he didn't care even if he burned it completely.
