[ Congratulations! You have copied the Demonic Flames Genjutsu from Ido. ]
Between the Demonic Flames Genjutsu and the Living Corpse Reanimation Jutsu, I ended up copying the former skill from Ido.
The Living Corpse Reanimation Jutsu is good in all, but like I said before, I didn't want to take over someone's body any time soon. My Uchiha blood is still very useful due to the fact that it uses less chakra to use the Sharingan, and it also has the potential to upgrade the Sharingan without having the System's help.
After I left the mansion, I looked at the Genjutsu abilities that I currently own.
[ Genjutsu Skills:
- Bell Sound Genjutsu
- Sharingan Genjutsu – Demonic Phantom Chains🔴
- Universal Painting Genjutsu 🔴
- Universal Body Paint Genjutsu 🔴
- Demonic Flames Genjutsu 🔴
- Illusion Merging Jutsu 🔴 ]
Overall, my Genjutsu abilities have increased significantly. I even managed to obtain the Illusion Merging Jutsu from Ido.
By its own right, the skill should've been under the Unique Skills, Trait, or Kekkei Genkai classification. Though, it seems that it is just a skill that anyone could learn.
"Screech!!"
I looked up towards Konoha's sky once I re-entered the village.
I recognized the Hawk in the sky to be Kakashi's hawk. He would occasionally use the Hawk to tell me to go look for him during our training session, so I knew that he is currently calling for me.
The Hawk might've been waiting for a while since I wasn't in the village.
"Am I late?" I muttered.
I knew that Itachi's arrival into the village should be around this time, and one thing that signified the time of Itachi's arrival is Kakashi's call on me.
In the Anime, the first time Kakashi calls on Sasuke after the Third Hokage's funeral is the exact day when Itachi and Kisame arrive in the village.
"I need to go check." I muttered and ran at full speed towards Kakashi's residence. That's where he should be after his battle with Itachi.
I weaved through Konoha by jumping on the rooftop.
Ninja's aren't supposed to run on rooftops because it sometimes causes disturbances to the locals, but this rule is very thinly enforced.

I arrived at Kakashi's residence in no time.
His residence is actually an apartment where many Jonins live side by side. Even Gai lives here. Perhaps Kurenai also lives here, but I wasn't too sure of that.
Anyways, I observed the insides of Kakashi's apartment without actually going into it.
I used the Mind's Eye of Kaguya to observe the chakra signatures inside the building, and I am sure that there are four people inside of Kakashi's bedroom.
Those four are Kakashi, Might Gai, Asuma, and Kurenai.
Unless all of them are gang fucking Kurenai, I could only conclude that this is the aftermath of their battle with Itachi.
But with this information, I knew that Naruto must've already left the village with Jiraiya.
This also means that Itachi and Kisame should be right after Naruto. If I wanted to meet Itachi, I had to leave right now.
So, I turned away from Kakashi's residence and jumped towards Konoha's gates.
My apartment was along the way there, so I made sure to summon a shadow clone to go tell Karin that I'm going to be gone for a little while. I didn't want her to go around the village to announce my disappearance.

Unlike how the original Sasuke's head was filled with thoughts of revenge as he ran towards the festival town, I am more clear headed.
In fact, I'm so bored while running towards the festival town that I began fiddling with the system.
"Merge the Demonic Illusion Flames and the Demonic Phantom Chains." I spoke to the system and looked at the UI.
[ Merging the two Genjutsu skills… Congratulations! You have made a new Sharingan Genjutsu ability – the Demonic Flame Prison Genjutsu! ]
[ Demonic Flame Prison – Once the opponent looks into your Sharingan, they will be locked into a flame prison. If the person does not escape in time, they will start to burn, roast, and eventually melt within the flame prison. ]
I shivered when I read the description of the new Genjutsu.
I now have Yakumo's Kekkei Genkai, so If I casted this Genjutsu onto a newbie Genin or civilian who can't resist Genjutsu, they are guaranteed death.

"Fuu~ One hour and thirty minutes…" I let out a breath of air as I stopped in the festival town.
I made it here rather quickly due to the fact that I ran at my full speed nonstop.
As I observed the town, I'm sure that it is the one that I'm looking for. Most of the houses match with the images in my consciousness.
"Time to use my searching abilities…" I activated both the Byakugan and the Mind's Eye of Kaguya and went into the town.
If I could't find Naruto with these two abilities, then I should just jump off a bridge and kill myself.
I've been seeing comments about the Pokemon Novel. I've been thinking about how to go about this one concept, and it's a killer writer's block. I might just ignore it and keep writing.
