The Path of the Great Sovereign 14 A Battle of Attrition PT.2

"I am still figuring out the way to control this place but, during the process I will surely get the hang of it." Itachi says this to them but to them it was no different than the Grim Reaper's Death sentence.

"I will ask you all a series of questions, You will answer them. If you refuse the torture will begin. Do not attempt to break out of this jutsu, Its a waste of time. The Uchiha are well known for their genjutsu with the Sharingan, what I cast on you was a the special ability of my Sharingan that was boosted by the Mangekyo. Not only that but this is a Special Mangekyo, The first of its kind, Nii-chan went through great efforts to create this perfected jutsu. I refuse to believe that any of you are smart enough of strong enough to break it." (A/N: I Have Created a Monster.)

Itachi pauses and 5 copies of him appear, 1 for each Shinobi, everyone needs 'Special' 1 on 1 care and attention.From the Rock shinobi's perspective the number of Ice cold blue eyes just increased.

"I would advise you to get as comfortable as possible. I don't know to what extent but, what I do know that time flows much slower in here. So I have all the time in the world to extract the information from you. Well let me start the questioning, Why are you in the Land of Grass?"

One of the Jonin look into the darkness and looks into the eyes of the Leaf Anbu before him. 'I don't believe anything this guy is saying, and I will die before I tell any information.' This have now become a battle of attrition, which side will break first? Will Itachi run out of chakra First? or Will the Rock Shinobi answer his questions first?

Although that is how the Jonin sees it is this really the case? Of course not. Itachi's side still has more cards that are still not in play while the Rock shinobi have had their fighting strength reduced to have of what it used to be and crushed the spirit of the Genin.

However a shinobi does not give up easily, You continute to fight no matter how slim you chances of victory are. The completion of the Mission is paramount, either you complete the mission or you don't come back at all. Let alone give details of your mission to the enemy.

"I will never tell you." This statement was unanimous from every rock shinobi.

"Your mouths' say that however I can be very persuasive." Each Itachi grabbed a Kunai and slowly began to peel the skin off the face of the shinobi. While doing that he explained "One of the best things about this genjutsu is while you mind knows that this is genjutsu your body and spirit think this is very real. So this will be every bit as painful as if I was not using genjutsu. Since there is no longer any merit in asking nicely we will do this the hard way."

Itachi's skill with the kunai was second to none and his methodical and meticulous detail in peeling off their skin utterly terrified them all. They screamed in agony, begged him to stop however there was no sympathy present in his eyes. They tried to kill him, his brother, and his best friend. If given the chance they would do the same to any and all leaf shinobi and that is the cruel fact of war.

It took hours to peel off all the skin. Once he was done Itachi asked again "Why are you in the Land of Grass?" and once again he got the same answer. So he moved on to another body part, This process continued until there was no skin left on their bodies.

Their Screams have long since faded and only a hoarse reminder of what once was.

He asked again and got the same answer. these shinobi were extremely loyal to their village. However this is itachi's world he just brought there skin back and did the process again, and repeated it until he got an answer he wanted to hear.

279. Thats how many times he repeated the process and 1 year ,4 days passed inside Tsukuyomi.

Finally a Jonin broke, "The Purpose of us being in the Land of Grass is to get to the Land of fire and destroy some infrastructure and cause mayhem and disorder in the country. Eventually causing the collapse of the Land of fire. I Will tell you everything please just stop, PLEASE." He was shaking and and extremely paranoid this was the only way he could make it stop. Being peeled over and over again like a price of fruit was terrible, it ruined his confidence and made him rethink his entire life.

The 6 Itachi's once again merged into one and walked toward him, he materialized a chair and sat down in front of him. " So tell me everything about Rock Shinobi movement in the Land of Grass and If their are hideouts or anything similar in either the Land of Grass or Land of Fire Tell me now."

1 year and 4 days in Tsukuyomi, But only .369 of a second passed in the real world.
