ACSP: Chapter 99: Mangekyo Sharingan, I have it too!
"I have been waiting for you to use this move..."
From the start of the battle, Jiang Chen had been guarding against Zhao Shui's Kotoamatsukami.
Therefore, throughout the fight so far, other than activating his Three-Tomoe Sharingan, he had only been using Ninjutsu to spar with his opponent and had not used any excess ocular power.
But at this moment.
The instant he noticed the change in Zhao Shui's ocular power.
He also activated his own Mangekyo Sharingan without hesitation!
And he entered the Cursed Seal of Heaven, Level 2 form directly.
His three tomoe spun rapidly, instantly transforming into a six-pointed star pattern.
At the same time.
A purple skeleton frame rapidly condensed and formed outside his body, tightly shielding him within.
There was a layer of black runes faintly flickering on the outside of the skeleton frame.
That was the characteristic of the power of the Cursed Seal of Heaven being added to Susanoo.
From another perspective, the Cursed Seal of Heaven is also a type of natural energy, similar to Sage Art.
And after being covered by the Cursed Seal of Heaven, Jiang Chen's Susanoo also possessed the properties of Sage Art.
He did not know if this property could withstand Zhao Shui's Kotoamatsukami.
But at this moment, he could no longer worry about that.
Facing Zhao Shui's Kotoamatsukami, he had to push his state to the limit.
The next second.
Jiang Chen's eyes snapped open, gathering all his ocular power, and he glared directly at Zhao Shui.
"——Mangekyo Sharingan: Mirror Heaven and Earth Change!"
Suddenly.
Zhao Shui seemed to sense something in the void, and his expression instantly sank.
"How is this possible?"
"He actually blocked my Kotoamatsukami..."
Although he didn't know exactly what had happened.
Zhao Shui could clearly perceive that the Kotoamatsukami he had just unleashed had not caused any effect on Jiang Chen.
"Susanoo? This guy actually opened the Mangekyo Sharingan too?"
Seeing a skeleton frame also appear outside Jiang Chen's body, Zhao Bin was completely stunned.
He never dreamed that.
A guy who wasn't even level 30 had actually opened the Mangekyo Sharingan.
Compared to the shock of Zhao Bin and Zhao Shui.
Li Yanran and the others on the other side, however, were now displaying expressions of excitement and joy.
"Why did a skeleton frame appear outside Jiang Chen's body too? Could this be the new skill he unlocked earlier?"
"It must be. And have you noticed? There are black curse mark patterns on the outside of Jiang Chen's skeleton frame; it feels much stronger than that Zhao Shui's skeleton frame."
"That's great. The stronger the strength Jiang Chen shows now, the greater our chances of escaping after we leave the secret realm later."
"By the way, didn't he say he unlocked two new skills in total? I wonder what the other new skill is?"
"Idiot, does that need guessing? It must be that Taijutsu ultimate, the Eight Gates..."
However, just as everyone was cheering.
Wang Shanshan, who was standing to the side, suddenly thought of something.
She said with a heavy heart: "This new skill of Jiang Chen's was only unlocked after opening the Mangekyo Sharingan. This Mangekyo Sharingan is not a good thing. If he uses this skill frequently, his eyes will quickly go blind."
Once these words were spoken, Li Yanran and the others immediately thought of this point.
Indeed.
Although the ocular technique of this Mangekyo Sharingan is powerful.
It is not a skill that can be used for a long time.
They had just been thinking about their own escape.
But they had completely forgotten about Jiang Chen's safety; they were simply terrible.
At this moment, Li Yanran's gaze suddenly hardened, as if she had made an important decision in her heart.
She took a deep breath and said: "If Jiang Chen really ends up blind because of using the Mangekyo Sharingan, then I will transplant one of my own eyes to him, so that he can see the light again."
Seeing that Li Yanran could make such a decision, everyone couldn't help but feel a sense of awe.
However, at this time, Yuan Danqing suddenly laughed: "I think you are just worrying unnecessarily. Jiang Chen has already thought of a way out for himself; there is no need for you to worry about this problem for him."
Li Yanran looked over, puzzled: "Danqing, what do you mean by that?"
Yuan Danqing explained with a smile: "Do you remember that Zhao Gang in Sister Xiaolin's team? I heard that Jiang Chen had a conflict with him at the seaside last time, and later dug out his Byakugan."
"I reckon Jiang Chen kept that pair of Byakugan in advance just to prevent himself from going blind in the future."
"After all, he had already unlocked the Three-Tomoe Sharingan at that time, and it was very likely he would unlock the Mangekyo Sharingan later."
Hearing Yuan Danqing say this, Li Yanran and the others all breathed a sigh of relief.
It seems their worries right now were truly unnecessary.
Jiang Chen had already been planning ahead.
They only realized it now.
At the same time.
On the training ground.
After using the ocular technique Mirror Heaven and Earth Change, Jiang Chen sensed that there was no lingering trace of Zhao Shui's ocular power on him, and finally, a heavy stone in his heart was lifted.
It seems he guessed correctly!
There cannot be an invincible skill in this world!
Every skill has flaws!
Even the strongest illusion, Kotoamatsukami, is the same.
Whether this illusion can be successfully cast on a target depends entirely on the caster's ocular power strength.
If facing enemies with weaker ocular power, or enemies whose ocular power is similar to the caster's.
Kotoamatsukami is definitely a lethal ultimate move.
But if facing those whose ocular power far exceeds the caster's.
Then, Kotoamatsukami might fail.
If this Zhao Shui's level were a bit higher and he could inherit more of Uchiha Shisui's ocular power.
Then Jiang Chen really might have been controlled by his Kotoamatsukami this time.
But unfortunately.
Zhao Shui's current level is only 50.
And although Jiang Chen is only level 28.
His contracted character, Uchiha Sasuke, possesses the Eternal Mangekyo Sharingan and the Six-Tomoe Rinnegan; his ocular power level is unknown levels higher than Uchiha Shisui, who only has a standard Mangekyo Sharingan.
Therefore, even though Jiang Chen is currently only level 28, his ocular power far exceeds that of Zhao Shui.
And the ocular technique he just used, Mirror Heaven and Earth Change, is not just an ordinary illusion reflection.
But a hidden skill that comes with the Mangekyo Sharingan.
Only those who have awakened the [Mangekyo Sharingan] can use it.
In the original work, when Itachi and Kisame came to Konoha Village, they once used this Dojutsu on the Konoha Jonin Kurenai Yuhi.
The power of its genjutsu rebound is definitely far greater than the genjutsu rebound of an ordinary [Sharingan]!
The genjutsu [Kotoamatsukami] that Zhao Shui cast at this moment not only failed to hit Jiang Chen, but was instead rebounded onto himself by Jiang Chen.
Now, a subtle connection has been established between him and Jiang Chen in the mysterious void.
And the one who dominates this connection is none other than Jiang Chen!
