"Sensei~! (✧◡✧)"
Kurenai Yuhi's big eyes sparkled with excitent.
She didn't say anything, but her expression said it all.
She wanted to learn this!
She really wanted to learn this!
Σ(ŎдŎ|||)ﾉﾉ...Σ(ŎдŎ|||)ﾉﾉ
Might Guy and Shiranui Genma took an instinctive step back when they saw Kurenai's expression.
She looked almost... unfamiliar, even a little terrifying!
Dear lord!
Sensei, you can't teach this, right?!
"...If you learn this, finding a boyfriend is going to be tough."
Yamanaka Shinno's expression was complicated—he really didn't want to corrupt Konoha's promising young talents.
But clearly, the "young talents" didn't see it that way.
These kids, who had just beco genin, naturally craved power.
A genjutsu strong enough to trouble even one of the legendary Sannin, Jiraiya, for over half a month...
A genjutsu with aftereffects so severe that even the toads of Mount Myoboku, one of the three great summoning realms, couldn't withstand it...
"If they can't beat , why should they be my boyfriend?! Sensei, please teach !"
Kurenai's adorable face was now filled with determination.
She wanted to beco a kunoichi as famous as Lady Tsunade. As for a boyfriend? That could wait!
"...Jiraiya, you really deserve to die."
For the first ti, Shinno felt an overwhelming urge to strangle Jiraiya.
His future student—who should have been a graceful, alluring, yet dangerous woman, like a crimson mandala—was now about to walk down an irreversible path!
Once she learned this genjutsu, there was no turning back. Who knew what kind of monster she would beco?
But then, Shinno thought about Kurenai's fate in the original tiline.
And suddenly... he understood.
Not finding a boyfriend for a while wasn't such a bad thing. At least she wouldn't end up as a widow too soon.
Besides, given his current strength and all the knowledge he had gained from reading countless skill descriptions, he was confident he could teach Kurenai well.
He might not be able to turn her into the genjutsu equivalent of Might Guy—who nearly kicked the final boss out of existence—but he could definitely help her surpass the power of a three-tomoe Sharingan.
As for whether she could match or even suppress a Mangekyō Sharingan? That was up to her own efforts.
"Sensei?"
Kurenai tilted her head up, looking at him anxiously as his expression kept changing.
Shinno took a deep breath. "I'll ask one last ti. Are you really ready? If you choose to learn this technique, you'll have to study a lot more—and give up a lot more."
'Brother's Joyous Hunt' was a high-level genjutsu that simultaneously affected both sight and touch.
While its learning threshold was roughly at the level of a standard B-rank jutsu, its potential was ridiculously high.
By the ti the enemy was caught by the 'Brother's Joyous Hunt,' they would be rendered motionless, much like in the B-rank genjutsu Tree Bind Death. Conscious yet paralyzed, unable to resist.
At that stage, the visual disruption was nearly complete. The next step was to intensify the influence on the sense of touch.
And touch could be deadly in genjutsu.
Cold, heat, pain, pressure, pulling, pleasure...
Shinno had studied genjutsu for a long ti and found that manipulating touch was the hardest part to master.
But if done correctly, it was a terrifyingly effective weapon.
If Kurenai wanted to learn this technique, she had to refine her ability to manipulate touch.
More importantly, she had to learn how to resist genjutsu before she could use it effectively.
Kurenai's natural talent for genjutsu was good, but compared to Shinno, the gap was enormous.
Which ant she had to learn Demonic Illusion: Mirror Heaven and Earth Change—a technique that could reverse enemy illusions back onto them.
She would also need to practice ntal force detonation, a counterasure for anyone trying to forcibly break out of her genjutsu.
Even Bringer-of-Darkness Technique, which combined genjutsu and sealing techniques, was worth looking into.
More complex seals were impractical, but she should at least master the basic Single Light Array they taught at the Academy.
"Sensei! I'm ready!"
Kurenai nodded eagerly, her youthful face flushed with excitent.
To learn one of her teacher's ultimate techniques, to beco a genjutsu master—her dream was within reach!
How could she not be excited?
[...]
"Sensei, is it powerful?"
Might Guy asked, shaking the grinding stone at high speed, making fresh soy milk before boiling and filtering it.
He had heard about the senbon-based techniques their teacher was teaching Genma—powerful assassination moves.
And Kurenai's training? That was a legendary genjutsu even the Sannin struggled against.
But steel-fist? He had never even heard of it!
Shinno began explaining the history and techniques of steel-fist.
Thanks to the wealth of information he had studied in his past life, he had picked up a lot of real martial arts knowledge during his teenage years.
He had forgotten most of it over ti, but the King of Knowledge's mory palace had brought it all back.
So now, when he spoke, he sounded like a true martial arts master.
Even without going into deep martial theories, just explaining steel-fist's use of head, shoulders, elbows, hands, waist, hips, knees, and feet for power generation made Might Guy's eyes light up.
He was so excited he nearly spun the grindstone into flas.
Nearby, Tsunade had initially dismissed the conversation.
After all, Shinno had never shown exceptional talent in taijutsu.
But after listening for a while, she sat up straight, ears perked.
If steel-fist could be combined with her monstrous strength...
Hiss~
Would Jiraiya even survive one hit?
Jiraiya: What did I do to deserve this?!
[...]
Freshly ground soy milk, steaming at buns stuffed with pork and vegetables, crispy pancakes with sausage and egg, pan-fried dumplings with shrimp, crab, and pork...
The mont Tsunade sat down, she didn't lift her head from the table once.
Might Guy and Genma weren't far behind, devouring their food at top speed.
Even among the younger ones, only Kurenai managed to eat with a semblance of grace.
The quality of the food spoke for itself.
But this was just the beginning.
Tomorrow, there would be more guests—and more food to prepare.
So after lunch, everyone got back to work.
Kushina rushed ho in the afternoon, having cleared two days' worth of tasks just to join the feast and gathering.
And when Tsunade returned with a whole collection of Second Hokage Tobirama Senju's Water Release scrolls...
Shinno could only stare in shock.
Holy crap.
He knew Tobirama had a lot of Water Release jutsu...
But this many?!
