Chapter 127: Stockholm and the Other Gods
Rope Tree determined that Yokota was truly surrendering this time through the Perception Secret Technique, and finally breathed a sigh of relief in his heart.
It's not easy! This time, he was tortured and attacked, and in the end, he had to use his family as a threat to reluctantly make the other party surrender.
It seems that a ninja with faith and faction like this is much more difficult to subdue than a renegade!
Rope Tree had planned to take advantage of this war to use the spell mark to subdue a large number of ninjas from other countries, but now it seems that this idea is almost impossible to achieve.
Because not everyone has a family like Yokota that can take advantage of this Achilles' heel, just now he clearly sensed that Yokota wanted to extract Chakra and activate some kind of sealing secret technique in his body to die with himself!
If it weren't for the fact that he used the rhetoric that was prepared in advance to gradually disintegrate Yokota's mental defense, coupled with the threat of his family, it would be impossible for Yokota to have a psychological breakdown and surrender sincerely!
Even if you can forcibly control the opponent's behavior with a spell seal, all you get is a puppet that may explode at any time.
For the rope tree, this kind of puppet that is ready to rebel at any time has little effect and needs to be distracted and manipulated, and instead of helping, it will become a burden.
So the spell is just a means of restraint, and in order to gain truly loyal subordinates, you must learn to control people's hearts!
And the method of controlling people's hearts is just four words, that is, "grace and power".
Rope tree knew that although Yokota's in front of him had initially surrendered, he was forced after all, and he was inevitably unwilling.
According to the data of the Willpower system, the loyalty is very low, if Shinobu's loyalty is 100, then Yokota's loyalty is only in his early 60s, although he will not rebel but is likely to be passive in doing things.
In order to increase Yokota's loyalty, Rope Tree will need to continue to use his skills.
"Oh? Isn't Elder Yokota ready to activate the Four Elephants Seal? It seems that this time he is telling the truth! Is it because of your family?" Rope Tree stopped the medical ninjutsu and asked with a curious expression.
Hearing this, Yokota had such an expression on his face, and said in a low tone: "Lord Rope Tree has no last resort, how can he hide the eyes of adults with these careful thoughts. Yokota is completely convinced! I just hope that adults can let go of the family below! ”
Rope tree nodded in satisfaction and said, "Elder Yokota is really gratifying to be able to rein in the precipice!" ”
"Just in case, I've carved the 'Will of the Mori' on Elder Yokota's forehead, so it's impossible for the Four Elephants Sealing Technique to be successfully activated! ”
"If Elder Yokota really insists on resisting to the end, in order to further convince Your Excellency, the contemptible person can only let Zhixin try two other "paths". ”
Hearing this, Yokota broke out in a cold sweat again, he didn't want to try the feeling of life being worse than death just now, if he changed to two more delicate parts, he would definitely go crazy, right? Thinking of this, Yokota couldn't help but rejoice in his decision.
As he spoke, he continued to treat Yokota's injuries, and after four "clicks", he finally reconnected Yokota's limbs.
"Okay, Elder Yokota's injuries have basically recovered, but you still need to pay attention to your diet and eat more light food! After a while, it will be cured. ”
Rope Tree patted Yokota's shoulder to comfort him, "Wei" has been done, and of course the next thing is "En".
"Thank you, sir!" Yokota felt the pain in his body disappear, and he couldn't help but feel grateful for healing his rope tree, although he knew that all this was caused by the other party, but he still couldn't help but have this strange emotion.
Sensing the subtle changes in Yokota's heart, Rope Tree was even more satisfied, so he made persistent efforts, "Shinobu-kun, why don't you put Elder Yokota down quickly?"
"Yes! Patriarch! With a look of uncertainty, Shishin untied the heavy shackles and lowered Yokota from the torture rack.
Yokota couldn't help but frown secretly when he looked at the perverted face in front of him, his eyes full of hatred and disgust.
But after he regained his freedom, looking at the rope tree with a sunny face, not only could not give birth to the slightest hatred, but inexplicably felt at ease, as if the young man in front of him could bring him a sense of security, could it be that he fell into illusion?
It wouldn't be so strange if he knew what Stockholm syndrome was.
According to the research of psychologists, people who are emotionally dependent on others and are easily touched are prone to Stockholm syndrome if they encounter a similar situation, and Stockholm syndrome usually has the following characteristics:
1. The hostage must have a genuine sense that the kidnapper (perpetrator) threatens his or her survival.
2. During the hostage, the hostage must recognize the actions of the kidnappers (perpetrators) who may be showing a small favor.
3. The hostage must be isolated from all other views except the single view of the kidnappers (usually without access to outside information).
4. The hostages must believe that it is impossible to escape.
Under these four conditions, people develop Stockholm syndrome.
Under the deliberate guidance of the rope tree, the above four conditions have been perfectly achieved.
Although Elder Yokota seems to be relatively tough and strong, under the influence of his family's education and inheritance, he has become a rational politician on the surface, but in fact he is a person who is rigid on the outside and soft on the inside, and is very easy to be emotional.
And emotional people like him are the ones most susceptible to Stockholm syndrome.
And this psychological complex is rooted in the subconscious (id) and is not controlled by the superficial consciousness (ego) at all, so Yokota's reason clearly tells him that it shouldn't be like this, but he can't help but feel dependent in his heart, and this strange feeling makes him think that he has fallen into illusion.
In fact, for the sensual group, the effect of Stockholm syndrome is no worse than that of the strongest illusion spell, because both act on the seventh consciousness (id), and once achieved, it is difficult to get rid of it.
However, the conditions for achieving the Stockholm Synthesis are much more complex than those of other gods, requiring not only a specific environment and a long time, but also specific requirements for the object of application.
People with rational personalities like Rope Tree, Orochimaru, and Danzo don't suffer from this mental illness at all. And emotional groups like Tsunade, Jiraiya, and Naruto are difficult to say. Provided, of course, that you can capture them alive.
However, other gods are able to forcibly change the seventh consciousness (self) of others regardless of all conditions, and the name of the strongest illusion is deserved.
Rope Tree has always been full of fear of this illusion that has not yet appeared, and can only hope that he can open the Kaleidoscope Writing Wheel Eye or even the Reincarnation Eye to resist.
According to Rope Tree, the pupil technique unique to the Kaleidoscope Writing Wheel Eye should be related to the eighth consciousness in the mind! Legend has it that the eighth consciousness is not Alayya, and it has all kinds of incredible supernatural powers. And the writing wheel eye is also known as the eye of the soul portrayal! There must be a connection between the two.
If the rope tree opens the kaleidoscope writing wheel eye, it should be able to find clues to crack the other gods.
