Melody of Deception

Melody of Deception (旋律の虚偽, Senritsu no Kyogi) is a technique created and utilized by Yūgetsu. He uses his flute in order to perform the technique. This jutsu is the base to all his melody related Genjutsu. This technique can be used as generic Genjutsu and the sounds it make can be used as a substitution hand seals to perform specific Genjutsu. Each specific Genjutsu has a specific melody that needs to be played in order to initiate the Genjutsu effectively.

The functioning of the technique is very simple. Yūgetsu plays the flute as a distraction to the opponent's ears, which acts as a trigger to the Genjutsu. Waves of chakra are fired with each melody. They disturb the chakra of the opponent slightly, giving Yūgetsu the chance to trap them under his Genjutsu, which shouldn't be difficult considering the trigger that was initiated with the sound of the flute. The opponent is immediately trapped under the Genjutsu as soon as they hear the sound of the flute. Breaking out of the Genjutsu would not be the smartest idea since the sound created by the flute will constantly drop the opponent under Genjutsu over and over again.

The only way of escaping this is by escaping the range of his flute where its sound cannot reach them, which is seemingly impossible as he can use his chakra to spread the waves at several kilometer radius. If the opponent escapes the range of his flute, they would still need to break out of his Genjutsu. This Genjutsu proved to be rather troublesome to most opponents.
