That jutsu sadly doesn't exists. Itachi uses crow's as medium for his clones to use less chakra on them as shadow clones itself require more chakra than water and as here stated crow clones, because they have no medium and those other 2 examples I stated do. What Itachi does is having his crow clones in his illusions integrated to trick his opponents and make them think that it is real. Another reason for him using crows has something to do with his past, which you can read up in the novel.
 * "So what about Genjutsu: Mirage crows? that didn't use the hand seals nor the sharingan (eye contact) ;_;"

Shikaku- Someone from the outside must be using some sort of control genjutsu...itachi?! Ao- Itachi Uchiha is the only one i know of who would be undetectable by MY SENSORY UNIT, yet still be able to manipulate with Genjutsu. Ao- But WIDE-SCALE CONTROLLING OF THIS MANY INDIVIDUAL IN MULTIPLE LOCATIONS SIMULTANEOUSLY is impossible even for Itachi! Re-analyse, i guess ,-,"
 * "Translation error alert ;-;

''Okay, could I ask what manga websites are the most reliable ones?? I don't know it myself and would appreciate some kind of recommendation to a reliable one.'' Anyways, my argument wasn't really neglected by that translation. It was stated, that wide-scale controlling is impossible (even) for Itachi. Considering that Ao had the Byakugan back then was Itachi still casting it from afar, while he had his complete as in normal vision, something he doesn't have anymore after his overusage of his MS. Let us not forget, that Ao stated that his sensory unit couldn't find Itachi and actually not Ao himself, which might be nitpicking, but could still mean something. There is still the fact that all Byakugan have different ranges. It was never stated, that Itachi was even able to cast a genjutsu on a Byakugan user or whatever Natrix stated.

Didn't he accept that mission so his brother can live? (<not to 100% sure about that though)
 * "Ah first of all it was like a mission ,-, he didn't do it intentionally.but you're probably gonna say he still did it....he was in a tight spot, remember all of em were still gonna be killed even sasuke, and he didn't want that."

You are probably doing 2 things, one being overestimating Itachi and the second being underestimating base Kabuto. Kabuto in part 1 was compared to Kakashi and if we would consider the anime as canon did Kabuto attacked with shuriken's and paper bombs, meaning that Itachi couldn't have had eye contact with Kabuto and those paper bombs even spreading smoke gave Kabuto and Orochimaru the perfect opportunity to escape as the Sharingan can't see through smoke and Kabuto actually being a pretty skilled ninja himself, master of deception and escaped the Sannin and as we saw in the anime Itachi.
 * "Yea Kabuto did intervene....but Itachi vs Kabuto??? answer that ,-, he was deciding on whether to control or kill Orochimaru. Orochimaru escaping is kinda BS because he was already out of the genjutsu but was still one hand short and was begging..ITACHIiIiIiIi"

Let's come to Itachi and what he would or could have done with Orochimaru. Itachi letting Orochimaru free would have been counterproductive for Itachi as he just joined the Akatsuki and let a traitor just go?! Itachi needed to build up some kind of trust on the others as a spy and that is why Itachi had just 2 options, to kill Orochimaru or hand him over to the leader as in Pain or Obito, any other action would mean that Itachi isn't as intelligent as you guys think he is.

Kaiser Emperor@ You should read that chapter again, shikaku made that claim after he found out all the alliance divisions were affected by enemy attacks. So the only solution which cane to his mind was itachi controlling all the alliance people and make them attack each other. Dont take just the statement at face value and look at the context in which he said it. By that hype he cant break the genjutsu he cant even detect it as per manga rules." What? You just claimed that I stated something I didn't... and let us go with your statement, didn't we just see 2 people who were on the range of sensories and weren't sensed? Those 2 being Zetsu and one from Shikamaru's novel I think, it is highly implied, that Itachi was moving outside the range of the sensory squad as Ao with his Byakugan would be obviously with his squad too and the Byakugan actually having a 360 degree diameter with the x-ray vision added to it. You can't hide from that unless you are a Zetsu, the only possibility here would be that he used his genjutsu outside of the range of the squad or simply used his genjutsu and dematerialised his clones...
 * "Natrix Spiritual Cloak Gleam

I looked at the scan and you just failed to analyse the position of Naruto and Bee's body, when he smashed his Samehada and after Itachi jumped to Nagato. When Bee attacked with his Samehada were Bee's and Naruto's bodies directed to eachother, but when Itachi jumped back to Nagato were their bodies direct towards Itachi and Nagato. I stated that already and you just ignored that.
 * "About the speed part you should see that naruto never moved a limb before itachi raced back. Then he went on to blitz bee. Bee showed no reaction. Please look clearly in the scan I even marked everything clearly for you guys. Read whats stated in the sxan. I clarified thier positions through statements written there. Please read it. Base bee blitzed minato twice. Yet you think he can keep up with itachi? No way hes doing that in base, in sm its a different story. His ftg is easily effortlessly reacted to by itachi as I've proven."
