With the Illusion Sea Sealing Technique, Reiji successfully conquered the entire enemy army without shedding blood— for the first time, Reiji won a battle without killing a single person in this world.
In his previous life, Reiji had taken lives without hesitation countless times.
However, in Reiji's new life, in this new body, he had never done so.
This was the first time Reiji stood on the battlefield and chose a different path—a path not tainted by death.
And for that, Reiji felt satisfied.
Not because of victory, but because Reiji could finally fight... without losing his humanity.
In that illusionary world, they were defeated one by one, and when the genjutsu faded, only fear and confusion remained in their eyes.
This was the beginning of a new dominance—not through brutal strength, but through an illusion that was almost like reality, completely controlled by Reiji.
If anyone were to ask how exactly Reiji used the Illusion Sea Sealing Technique, the answer is not as simple as it seems.
Because clearly, in the morning, Reiji was just walking slowly towards the beach.
There were no screams when the Sealing Technique was activated, as Reiji simply stood at the water's edge and began to activate a series of Sealing Techniques—all aimed at strengthening Reiji's own body and mind.
All of this happened the night before, when a combined force from three Great Villages came across the sea, walking confidently on the water's surface.
They immediately launched various Ninjutsu towards the Island's Protective Sealing Technique, trying to tear through the defenses of the Whirlpool Island.
However, as morning approached, a strange sight occurred—the army that had walked on water the night before was now standing on dozens of wooden ships, floating calmly around the island.
The Uzumaki ninjas, who were quietly observing from behind trees and bushes, could only stare in astonishment.
Confusion enveloped them.
Some of them tried to rationalize the event.
Perhaps the ninjas from the three great villages turned back last night to return to the harbor to get ships?
Maybe they brought those wooden ships through the sea route from the Land of Fire or the Land of Wind?
However, what they did not know was that all of this was part of an illusion.
An extremely intricate illusion, nearly undetectable.
Reiji had created an illusion barrier around the sea area, which only activated when the enemy entered the fog—the fog that appeared when they attacked the island's shield.
That was where their consciousness was trapped.
Their bodies remained standing in the real world, but their minds, their projections of consciousness, had been dragged into the illusionary world created by the Illusion Sea Sealing Technique.
In that world, everything seemed real.
Wounds, pain, death—everything felt genuine.
Yet all of it was merely a reflection of their thoughts; not a single wound truly occurred on their physical bodies.
As morning came, and they "awoke" on the wooden ships that were also part of the illusion, they questioned nothing.
Their memories had been modified, blurred, and filled with false certainty that they had indeed arrived there by ship from the very beginning.
So, what about Reiji?
Was Reiji also swept into the illusion he created?
Of course not.
Reiji was the center of that Sealing Technique.
As Reiji walked on water and began to fight, he remained fully aware—still in the real world.
What Reiji faced was not the physical bodies of the attackers, but rather their illusionary projections.
Because of this, any attack from the enemy never truly touched Reiji.
All were merely shadow attacks, born from minds trapped in the genjutsu.
Conversely, Reiji's attacks against them did not truly kill either.
What Reiji defeated were projections—not bodies, not lives.
In this way, Reiji managed to conquer thousands of enemies... without touching a single one of them.
