From Naruto onwards, I've become a dreamer.

Chapter 2 Promotion Sequence 6: Hypnotist
Uchiha Munetsuki is a [spectator].

However, this audience is not the same as the audience in the game, but one of the 22 divine paths in Lord of Mysteries.

By consuming the corresponding magical potions, one can advance in their level of life and ultimately become a god.

Name: Uchiha Munetsuki

[Age: 15 years old]

[Occupation: Ninja, Psychologist]

[Method: Dreamer]

[Level: Sequence 7 - Psychiatrist]

Extraordinary Items:
Moon Paper Doll: Takes a fatal blow or an attack on a spiritual entity in place of the holder.

Filthy words: Let your opponent hear a terrible roar and infect them with madness.

Sleep Charm: After a brief incantation, it can induce a peaceful state of sleep.

Hermes' Brass Candelabra: Extracts spiritual energy; depending on the quality of the burning spiritual energy, it can weave near-realistic dreams and pull other dreamers into the same dream.

"If possible, I hope you can give me a cheat code."

Looking at his cheat system, Uchiha Muneki's lips twitched, and his face showed a look of utter despair.

Putting everything else aside, in the Lord of Mysteries' power system, the higher the sequence level, the greater the risk of going out of control. Even gods must rely on mortal anchors at all times to prevent themselves from losing their humanity.

Uchiha Munetsuki was terrified of death, so among the 22 paths to godhood, he ultimately chose to be an audience member.

It's simply because this path, with its sequence, skillfully utilizes the power of the mind and spirit, making it less prone to losing control compared to other paths.

The Sharingan, the bloodline limit of the Uchiha clan, perfectly matches the spiritual power experienced by the audience.

The combination of these two factors amplified his skills in illusion, hypnosis, and suggestion to an astonishing degree.

It can even, to some extent, briefly simulate an effect similar to Infinite Tsukuyomi.

That is: the expensive psychological therapy that Uchiha Fugaku experienced, which cost 50,000 ryo per session - wish fulfillment!
In Konoha Village, to be fair, his psychological therapy, despite its high price, is still very popular.

After all, in such a cruel ninja world, who wouldn't want to have a dream-come-true journey?
"Finally, I've gathered enough materials to advance to the level of a hypnotist."

Uchiha Muneki lowered his head, staring at the seemingly transparent pituitary gland in his hand, and couldn't help but feel a surge of emotions: "For this thing, I played the role of a psychologist for a whole year."

Now that he had the main materials, he didn't plan to delay any longer.

Activating his Sharingan to survey his surroundings, and after confirming that no one would disturb him, Uchiha Muneki carefully set up several ninjutsu traps before tightly closing the doors and windows.

The psychologist's magic potion had already been digested through role-playing six months ago.

If it weren't for the lack of main materials, he would have advanced to Sequence 6 long ago. Why wait until now?

In addition to the pituitary gland of the Mind Dragon, the main materials for advancing to Sequence 6 also include a psychedelic bell tree fruit.

Uchiha Munezuki carefully took out the psychedelic bell tree fruit he had prepared beforehand from the sealing scroll, and then threw it into a dark cauldron along with the pituitary gland of the young man's mental dragon. He then threw in the other materials one by one.

A moment later, the Sequence 6 Hypnotist's potion was successfully prepared.

The transparent, colorless, viscous liquid reflects everything within its range like a mirror, and tiny eddies flow beneath its surface as it is shaken and undulated.

dong dong!

The sound of a heartbeat could be clearly heard in the room.

Uchiha Muneki stared at the transparent, viscous liquid. Although he was mentally prepared, he still felt a little nervous every time he took the potion.

In his past life, what he hated most was this kind of sticky liquid!
The thought that I, who can't even swallow lotus root starch, am now being forced to drink this kind of stuff, makes me realize that it's all Tokiomi's fault.

"appease!"

After calming his nerves using the skills of a psychologist, Uchiha Munetsuki no longer hesitated. He picked up the dark cauldron and drank it down in one gulp.

cluck cluck
The viscous liquid entered my mouth, giving me a cool sensation, and slid right down my throat.

The next moment, his consciousness seemed to go berserk and jolted violently.

hum!
Uchiha Muneki's eyes were vacant, and he felt as if his soul had left his body.

Ascending or falling in a state of infinite weightlessness, being absorbed and assimilated by some kind of mind, like a pure polymer of thoughts drifting in the boundless 'sky'.

No, that is not the 'sky', but the boundless ocean of the collective unconscious that connects all living beings.

In that deep, dark sea, each drop of liquid is like a ray of light, symbolizing the consciousness of a living being, and the consciousnesses of countless living beings together construct this ocean.

Upon first sensing the vast ocean of the collective subconscious, Uchiha Muneki felt a desire to merge into it.

Fortunately, he was already a mature 'psychologist' and did not panic. He remained calm and clear-headed, cutting off the thought of merging into the sea from his mind.

His boundless, expansive consciousness was also consciously controlled and retracted.

I don’t know how much time has passed.

A captivating glint flashed in Uchiha Sogetsu's empty eyes.

After his consciousness finally returned to his body, he took a deep breath and then exhaled with a sigh of relief: "I succeeded. I have finally become a Sequence 6: Hypnotist."

Starting from Sequence 6, it marks the official entry into the intermediate sequence. The audience path is no longer helpless, but will have a certain ability to fight.

Uchiha Muneki lowered his head to examine himself; his skin was covered with fine and sturdy golden scales.

If there were others present, at this moment, Uchiha Muneki's blood-red eyes, with their three tomoe turning, would reveal a strange vortex deep within, like an abyss. His entire body was covered in golden scales, making him resemble a ferocious beast, exuding a terrifying aura.

He clenched his fist slightly and threw a simple jab.

boom!
A loud explosion was heard in the air.

His physical abilities were greatly enhanced by the magic potion; both his strength and agility far surpassed those of ordinary ninjas.

Secondly, the fine golden scales provide considerable defense; even if a kunai were to forcefully swipe across them, it would only create a shower of sparks and produce a piercing metallic scraping sound.

In addition, after being promoted to hypnotist, he gained three more abilities.

First, it involves modifying or influencing subconscious psychological suggestions in a non-combat state; second, it involves combat hypnosis, which involves forcibly hypnotizing the enemy during combat; and third, it involves psychological invisibility, which involves placing oneself in a blind spot of consciousness.

"Although it lacks the ability to directly attack, however..."

Uchiha Muneki smiled and muttered to himself with amusement, "If I use the power of the Sharingan, I'm afraid I can forcefully use psychological suggestion even in battle, and even prolong the hypnosis time and intensity."

It has to be said, the synergy between the audience and the Sharingan is simply amazing!

As his agitated emotions gradually calmed down, Uchiha Muneki checked the system's rewards.

Main Quest: Promotion Sequence 6: Hypnotist (Completed)

[Please take the potion to advance to Sequence 6: Hypnotist]

[Reward: Extraordinary Item - Lies]

An exquisite silver mask lay quietly on the tatami mat.

Item: Lies
Extraordinary Abilities: Allows the holder to realistically change their appearance and master three special abilities: fire manipulation, damage transfer, and danger intuition, while also enhancing balance and agility.

Negative effect: Wearing it can amplify your emotions.

Uchiha Muneki transformed the 'Lies' mask into a ring, wore it on his middle finger, and was in a great mood: "With this, it will be much more convenient to operate in the Anbu in the future."
