White Marsh Technique

The White Marsh Technique (白沢の術, Hakutaku no Jutsu) is a highly advanced Genjutsu technique exclusive to those who have made themselves highly proficient in the ninja skill. While this technique is widespread, only a few users possess the knowledge and proficiency within the art in order to utilize it correctly. There are a few steps that are required to mastering this specific technique, which only dedicated Genjutsu practitioners may attempt to master. Therefore, those of the Uchiha Clan, who possess an illusion of similar potency, opt not to learn this technique on most occasions.

To utilize this technique, one must understand the nature of Genjutsu combat. Two users engaging in a battle of Genjutsu are engaging in a battle of wills, intellect, and most of all, deception. Therefore, the use of illusions to fight against illusions is something most users tend not to utilize unless absolutely necessary. In order to escape from Genjutsu, one must take the obvious steps: identify they are in an illusion, take control over the chakra flow in their brain, release a wave of chakra powerful enough to dispel such control and retain control. However, by utilizing this technique, one is able to avoid the use of the last step and instead employ a method that revolves around chakra control and illusory proficiency in order to grasp the opponent's illusion and project it against them.

When one is subjected underneath the illusion, they must be capable of retaining control and subsequently employ a Genjutsu onto the opponent while remaining within the supposed "confines" of the fantasy (or hell) that their opponent has made for them. This illusion must be one that is "complementary" to the effects of the one projected towards them (an example would be an illusion used to burn the illusory plants formed by an opponent). In turn, the opponent is afflicted with the power of two Genjutsu, and will generally be in a mental state which is so deteriorated that their physical body would be incapable of moving an inch as a consequence.

While this technique is highly beneficial, it is crucial that it be used correctly, for if not done so, the user will be afflicted with the power of two illusions against him, something which is undesirable by many. Furthermore, if the opponent is skilled enough in the use of illusions, they would be capable of reverting the effects of the dual Genjutsu with their own against the user through the use of the same technique, something which would almost certainly cause extreme mental damage.
