Kurenai's big eyes sparkled with anticipation. Although she didn't say anything, her expression explained everything.
She wanted to learn this! She really wanted to!
Σ(ŎдŎ|||)ﾉﾉ...Σ(ŎдŎ|||)ﾉﾉ
Guy and Genma saw Kurenai's expression and instinctively took a step back in fear. She suddenly felt so unfamiliar… almost terrifying!
"... If you learn this, you might have trouble finding a boyfriend."
Kei had a strange expression. He really didn't want to ruin the bright future of Konoha's new generation.
But clearly, this "sapling" didn't think the same way. The newly graduated genin naturally longed for strength.
A genjutsu that even troubled one of the Sannin for over a month… A technique so powerful that even the sacred toads of Mount Myōboku fell victim to it.
"Sensei, please teach me!"
Kurenai's face was now full of determination. She wanted to become a renowned kunoichi like Tsunade! As for boyfriends? That could wait!
Kei had never wanted to strangle Jiraiya more than at this moment.
A bewitching but dangerous disciple, walking down an irreversible path… If she learned even one of those genjutsu, it would be like opening Pandora's box. Who knew what she would become?
Just thinking about her ultimate fate in the original story… Kei suddenly understood.
Not having a boyfriend for a while wasn't necessarily bad. At least it meant she wouldn't become a widow in the future. And based on his current knowledge and experience, after reading the data of so many people… He had absolute confidence that he could teach her well.
He wouldn't say she'd end up like Guy, nearly kicking the final boss into oblivion… But her genjutsu surpassing even the three-tomoe Sharingan? No problem at all.
As for whether she could counter or even suppress the Mangekyō Sharingan—that wasn't up to his teachings. That depended on her own potential.
"Sensei?" Kurenai raised face, nervously watching her teacher's constantly changing expression.
"I'll ask one last time—are you really ready? If you learn this technique, you'll gain a lot, but you'll lose a lot too."
Kei took a deep breath and questioned his young disciple.
Trump's Ecstatic Nightmare Realm was a high-level genjutsu that could severely affect both vision and touch at the same time. Its training difficulty was about the level of a standard B-rank jutsu, but its upper limit was insanely high.
The core principle was similar to the Sly Mind Affect Technique, trapping the enemy in a labyrinth-like illusion. At the same time, it used the Demonic Illusion: Hell Viewing Technique, causing the victim's worst fears to materialize and chase them.
Ultimately, rather than saying the victim was "captured" by the Dahmer, it was more like they fell into a state similar to the Demonic Illusion: Tree Binding Death—fully conscious, yet unable to move or resist.
At this point, visual interference was complete. But beyond continuing to assault the opponent's sight, it was necessary to intensify the sensory manipulation of touch.
In genjutsu, touch could influence many sensations—cold, heat, warmth, pain, pressure, pulling, even… pleasure…
After studying so many genjutsu, Kei believed that touch manipulation was the hardest to master. But if controlled well, it could be a deadly weapon.
If Kurenai really wanted to learn this Jutsu, refining her control over touch-based illusions was essential. More importantly, before mastering this technique, she had to learn how to resist enemy genjutsu. She had great talent for mental power, but compared to Kei, she was still far behind.
That meant she absolutely had to learn the Demonic Illusion: Mirror Heaven and Earth Change which was a counter-genjutsu technique that could reflect illusions back at the user.
Additionally, genjutsu techniques like Bringer-of-Darkness Technique, which combined with sealing techniques, could also be useful.
Of course, she didn't have to start with complex fūinjutsu. The String Light Formation should be fine for now.
"Sensei! I'm ready!"
Kurenai nodded eagerly. Learning her teacher's ultimate technique… becoming a genjutsu master was within reach! How could she not be excited?!
"Sensei, is the Strong Fist really powerful?" Guy vigorously kneaded the pastry dough with such intensity that the table almost seemed like it was about to crack. The layers of butter being folded into the dough created perfect lamination for the croissants as his powerful hands worked with surprising precision.
He had heard about the ninjutsu that Kei was going to teach Genma—it was two techniques that could be unleashed with just a single seal, possessing immense power.
But what he was teaching Kurenai… that was an ultimate secret technique capable of even giving a Sannin a hard time.
Explosive Impact? He had never heard of that!
"Traditional martial arts use Aikido to harmonize with attackers, combat sports use Explosive Impact to dominate the fight. Have you heard of the Eight Trigrams?"
"Gentle Fist? The Hyūga clan?"
"The Hyūga clan's Gentle Fist does contain some elements of Aikido's circular movements, but it's still fundamentally different. Explosive Impact is a style that stands alongside Aikido, focusing on generating maximum force through kinetic linking and ground reaction forces..."
Kei began explaining to Guy the origins of Explosive Impact and some of its techniques.
Thanks to the advanced internet from his previous life, he had actually learned quite a bit of real knowledge back in his middle school "edgy" phase.
Originally, with the passage of time, he had forgotten most of it.
But with [Memory Master of the Shinobi World] he was able to recall it all again.
So now, he could explain it with complete confidence.
Even without delving into the biomechanical principles of kinetic chaining and force multiplication, just explaining the practical applications of Explosive Impact—how to generate maximum power through hip rotation, proper weight transfer, optimal striking angles, and explosive muscle recruitment—was enough to make Guy feel like he had discovered a priceless treasure.
He was shaking the stone mill so hard that it looked like sparks were about to fly out of it.
At first, Tsunade didn't think much of it. After all, Kei had never displayed any exceptional talent in taijutsu. But after listening for a while, she could no longer underestimate this Explosive Impact.
Her ears perked up as she carefully memorized the key points of the strikes and techniques.
If this was paired with her monstrous strength…
Hiss—
Would one strike be enough for her medical minjutsu to revive Jiraiya afterward?
The breakfast spread was impressive: golden-brown croissants with their buttery layers perfectly visible, crêpes filled with various combinations of Nutella and fresh berries, crêpes with ham and Gruyère cheese, and savory breakfast quiches with bacon and spinach.
There were also fluffy Belgian waffles topped with whipped cream and maple syrup, eggs Benedict with perfectly poached eggs and hollandaise sauce, and an assortment of cured meats and cheeses arranged on wooden boards.
And finally, steaming pots of freshly brewed herbal tea, a special blend from the Land of Tea that Kei had been saving for special occasions.
Tsunade never once lifted her head from the table.
Guy and Genma's eating speed was just as astonishing—a croissant in one hand, a crêpe in the other.
Among his students, only Kurenai managed to maintain a slightly more refined eating posture.
There was no need for any verbal praise. Just looking at their reactions was enough to tell how amazing the food was.
But this was just a fraction of the breakfast dishes Kei could prepare.
And tomorrow's event was already planned—there would be more than just four people attending. So, after lunch and an hour of rest, everyone got busy again.
Kushina finally arrived home around two in the afternoon.
In order to participate in this food-tasting and gathering with friends, she had rushed to finish all her work for today and tomorrow ahead of time.
After hurriedly stuffing some food into her already growling stomach, she energetically joined the rest of the group.
One after another, various half-prepared gourmet dishes were continuously being made by the five of them.
Meanwhile, Tsunade had left the house for a bit.
Half an hour later, she returned carrying the Water Release scrolls of the Second Hokage. As soon as she unsealed the storage scrolls, she shocked Kei with the sheer depth of the Senju clan's legacy.
Holy crap!
Everyone know Tobirama had a ton of Water Release scrolls… But who would have thought he had THIS many?!
