Not in the way you are using it. You are using it to describe a noun. Therefore, you are using it in it's adjective form. You are saying the illusion is instant. The illusion is the noun and subject and instant is describing it. Do i really need to teach you basic English? The definition of the Adjective form of instant is happening or coming immediately. So...

I'm using it how Kakashi used moment here: "Unh...I see in 3 days and less than a moment has passed in this one." Just replace moment with instant.

I read this on Dictionary.com: "A minute, properly denoting 60 seconds, is often used loosely for any very short space of time (and may be interchangeable with second ): I'll be there in just a minute."

Minute doesn't always mean 60 seconds. So in Kakashi's case, he likely meant less than a moment/instant/second passed.

Even if you could argue and say it's a noun, you still don't have an argument. Just because one word means another, doesn't mean that word means that word as well at all times. As i clearly proved, moment can be as long as a minute. Instant is a minute? Either way, it ain't happening in 0 seconds and your argument fails.

I don't understand. Why does it have to be 0 seconds to be instant?
