In Episode 336, Itachi was seen to apply his genjutsu on Mecha-Naruto.

But Mecha-Naruto is a robot which does not have a brain but memory chip. As it
is a robot (which does not have any chakra), its battle techniques could not
be copied by Kakashi's Sharingan.

[Wikia-Genjutsu](http://naruto.wikia.com/wiki/Genjutsu:_Sharingan) mentions
that genjutsu can only occur by manipulation of chakra of the brain.

**Then how does Itachi put genjutsu on a memory chip of a robot?**

naruto
How can Itachi's genjutsu act on Mecha-Naruto "Robot"?


The answer for this is that this episode was filler. Chances are since the
episode is a filler, Mecha Naruto is affected because fillers are very
different from the anime's plot and/or logic itself.

Well, when Mecha Naruto went berserk, he was discovered by Akatsuki the next
day and brought to Pain, who modified it.

Maybe he put in a chakra network, or something involving chakra, that allowed
the Akatsuki to easily control Mecha Naruto. Maybe that's how Itachi placed
Mecha Naruto under a genjutsu.

Mecha-naruto can absorb and contain chakra. This could mean that he has some
kind of a chakra system. he also has a eight-trigrams seal in order to seal
kurama and this confirms the previous statement. This chakra would in turn be
used by his chip for its functioning similar to how the brain uses electric
signals flowing through the nervous system.

The chip could be thought of a mechanical brain that uses chakra(it can sense
chakra too!)and gives you all reasons why itachi could use genjutsu on mecha
naruto.
