Chapter 149 Manual Version of Izanami

popping.

Bai Mo clapped his hands.

"Um?"

Uchiha Hikaru looked over in confusion.

"Great idea! You're amazing, Hikaru!"

Bai Mo praised.

"It's nothing, actually it was you who gave me the inspiration."

Guang felt a little embarrassed after being praised by Bai Mo.

No, I mean it.

During the Warring States period, there was a female ninja from the Uchiha clan who developed a special eye technique that allowed people to regain their sense of self within illusions.

While both are forms of psychological healing illusions, this illusion called Izanami requires the permanent sacrifice of sight in one eye.

The only advantage it offers is that it's fully automated, and that illusions can be cast without visual contact.

Moreover, strictly speaking, full automation is not an advantage.

This is to allow the 'patient' to heal themselves; if they can't heal, they can't leave.

If the "patient" completely collapses mentally and gives up thinking before healing themselves, it will backfire.

But when you used Tsukuyomi to actively plan the plot and treat Yakumo Kurama's psychological illness, that's a different story.

By proactively planning the storyline, the efficiency of treatment will inevitably be many levels higher than that of fully automatic treatment.

And similarly, one cannot escape illusion without recognizing oneself.

At the same time, this is still controllable. If it is discovered that the 'patient' is on the verge of a mental breakdown, the illusion can be actively dispelled to prevent the condition from worsening.

Bai Mo's explanation made Uchiha Hikaru seem thoughtful.

Clearly, Hikari Uchiha is not the "innately evil Uchiha" that the Second Hokage described. On the contrary, just like her name suggests, she is inherently full of light.

Now, as long as Bai Mo doesn't die, she won't prioritize pursuing power, and she won't burn every passing dog with Amaterasu.

At this point, Uchiha Hikaru could be described as "naturally kind".

So when Bai Mo told him that Tsukuyomi could be used to treat mental illnesses, Uchiha Hikaru was very happy.

"Goodness, Tsukuyomi has become a medical ninjutsu."

Tsunade muttered something under her breath.

"That's right, the Senju are in charge of healing the body, and the Uchiha are in charge of healing the mind. This is how the ninja world should be. It's so harmonious. I'm so moved. Waaah!"

As Hashirama Senju spoke, he started wiping away tears, which was extremely embarrassing.

Of course, no matter what he said, Uchiha Hikaru wouldn't listen; Senju Hashirama had already been blocked and muted.

But when Hashirama Senju mentioned this, Hikaru Uchiha suddenly remembered something and looked at Tsunade: "I remember you have some kind of hemophobia, right? Tsunade Senju, the Fifth Hokage."

grunt.

Stared at by Uchiha Hikaru, Tsunade instantly realized something and quickly closed her eyes: "No need, I can handle this minor ailment myself!"

Although Tsunade didn't know where this Uchiha girl in front of her came from, she could tell from the fact that the girl called out the surname that no one had called her for a long time that this girl was a "nostalgic" and did not get along with the Senju clan.

There is no doubt that Tsunade's surname is Senju.

Don't think about things like Tsunade's mother being Senju or her father being an outsider.

Even so, Tsunade's surname is Senju.

Just think about what Inojin's surname was during the Boruto era and you'll understand.

Even if her mother was Senju, she was still the first generation's daughter and had married into the Senju family, so she was not entitled to take the surname.

Unless his father's family is the Uchiha, which is on par with the Senju.

But thinking about it, that's impossible.

In short, there is no doubt that Tsunade's surname is Senju. As for why she has never been called that, it can only be attributed to the First Hokage's policy.

The Senju clan, having removed their surnames, no longer operates as a clan unit, but wholeheartedly dedicates themselves to the ninja village as a collective.

The Senju clan still exists, of course.

While Kiba Inuzuka and Shino Aburame were preparing their wedding gifts, they were told that the Senju clan had a custom of giving mead, and they found a mysterious beekeeper.

"Alright, Hikaru, now that you've solved Yakumo's psychological problems, let's get down to business."

Bai Mo placed his hand on Guang's shoulder.

"Okay."

Hikaru obediently turned his gaze away from Tsunade.

In fact, to deal with the aggregate of inner demons like Ido on Kurama Yakumo's body, Bai Mo only needs to use [White Serpent] to directly transform Ido into a disc and take it out.

However, Ido is essentially a part of Yakumo.

Taking it out directly would be equivalent to weakening Kurama Yakumo's power.

This is not good for future plans.

The best approach is to let Yakumo Kurama defeat Ido himself and acquire this power. This way, his strength will not be weakened, but rather he will be able to reach a higher level.

At present, Yakumo Kurama has not completely defeated Ido.

Ido is just temporarily unable to appear because he is tormented by the Light's Tsukuyomi.

When Tsunade heard Bai Mo stop the light, she slowly opened her eyes, letting out a sigh of relief, but also feeling somewhat disappointed.

Based on the previous situation, Bai Mo would probably say "Don't hide your illness from the doctor" and then force her to read the moon, torturing her for a while.

Has their attitude changed after all?

It seems I'll have to honestly start working on building up my favorability again.

Tsunade has given up for the time being.

"Wait, Yakumo's body can't hold on!"

Kurenai Yuhi still stood in front of Yakumo Kurama.

"Teacher Hong..."

Kurama Yakumo, whose personality was being corrected by Izanami's [Light Flow·Tsukuyomi Healing], was deeply moved when he saw this scene.

"Don't worry, we understand her physical condition. We're not asking her to go straight to the goal right away. We need to do a trial first to determine if our method is feasible."

This experiment doesn't require much strength or pressure.

Bai Mo provided an explanation, which relieved Xi Ri Hong slightly.

"And it's not just that her body couldn't hold up, Xiaoguang's body couldn't hold up either."

Bai Mo added a sentence.

"Huh?"

Guang was stunned for a moment.

She hadn't thought about that yet; she was only focused on helping Bai Mo achieve his goal.

"So not only does Yakumo need to recover his body, but Hikaru also needs to master the amplification of my natural energy in order to ensure everyone's safety."

"This isn't something that can be done overnight, so let's try it out first."

"If the experiment fails, it means that the underlying logic of this method is not applicable, and we can look for another method."

Bai Mo was well aware of the limits of the Uchiha Kyou Mangekyou Sharingan.

In the original storyline, she transferred the massive amount of chakra collected by the Eight Thousand Spears to Boruto, only to be overloaded and sacrificed herself.

So he wasn't prepared to achieve everything in one step from the beginning.

"Experiment? How do you conduct the experiment?"

"It's very simple."

Bai Mo looked at Tsunade, "Could you call Kakashi over?"

"Hmm, oh? Oh. Okay."

Tsunade was caught off guard by Bai Mo's sudden conversation and snapped back to reality.

"Mute, please."

"..."

Silent, on the verge of tears.

Lady Tsunade, what am I to you?
