Chapter 86 – The Girl Who Paints Reality
"Complete domination of the five senses!"
"..."
"?!?!"
"That's literally the same ability as Aike-nii!"
Kaya blurted out.
Nami, Carina, and Izumi's eyes went wide.
They had imagined all kinds of possibilities: Uchiha-style eye powers, mental aptitude, whatever.
But not once did they think: Kyōka Suigetsu 2.0.
And now Aike was casually telling them:
"The bloodline this girl awakened is five-senses domination. Exact same as Kyōka Suigetsu."
The girls were floored.
They knew exactly how broken Kyōka Suigetsu was.
One hit and you were done—permanent puppet status, zero countermeasures.
Even Izumi and Hikari, both near Six Paths tier and wielding Eternal Mangekyou to the absolute limit, couldn't break free.
Certified bug-level ability.
"It's the same type, but power still depends on the user," Aike cut off their spiraling fantasies. "Without a strong enough foundation, the ability just eats you alive."
He added a gentle warning.
"That said, the Kurama bloodline really is insane."
"Five-senses domination is only the appetizer. She can also create illusion dimensions and turn anything that happens inside them into reality."
"WHAT?!"
"So… she can just paint infinite treasure?!"
Nami and Carina screamed at the same time.
Their eyes turned into spinning gold beli symbols.
Nami dramatically swept an arm.
"Boss! We are contractually obligated to recruit her! The Libra desperately needs a professional money printer!"
"Seconded!" Carina nodded vigorously. "This Kurama Yakumo chick is clearly soulmates with the captain! Same ability! It's fate!"
Competition? Jealousy?
Please.
The Libra had way too many empty cabins and an even emptier treasury.
More sisters = more hands to fill both.
Aike, Kaya, and Izumi just stared, deadpan.
All that explanation and the only thing they heard was "free infinite money."
Classic.
Whether the "turn illusion into reality" part could actually mass-produce beli, even Aike wasn't 100 % sure.
In theory, yes. If Yakumo believes it's real, it becomes real. Money included.
Under Nami and Carina's enthusiastic urging, the group stepped over the sea of unconscious (and some very dead) shinobi and reached the estate gate.
The moment they got close, Nami, Carina, and Kaya all staggered, faces paling.
Izumi instantly activated her Eternal Mangekyou, using raw ocular power to resist the sudden illusion wave.
"This is what happens when the ability is too strong for the body," Aike shook his head.
He placed a hand on the three girls' shoulders and canceled the illusion with Kyōka Suigetsu.
At the same instant,
the front doors creaked open by themselves, revealing pitch-black darkness inside.
Another illusion, obviously.
Aike just shrugged and walked in anyway.
The hallway was pure void—no light, no sound except footsteps.
"Interesting power. You've got my full attention now."
Aike looked around with open curiosity.
Izumi analyzed every corner with her Mangekyou, growing more shocked by the second.
The deeper she looked, the clearer it became why Aike was dead set on recruiting this girl.
If this ability ever synced up with Aike's own… the destructive (and economic) potential would be apocalyptic.
After walking a bit farther,
the mastermind behind the curtain saw that none of them looked even slightly scared.
A delicate little face twisted in annoyance.
She slashed her paintbrush down.
Instantly, the black hallway turned into a roaring river of molten lava.
"Such a naughty child."
Aike shook his head and shattered the illusion with pure power.
Then he pushed open the door in front of them.
A room filled wall-to-wall with paintings appeared.
